a r1illIon for the u. v. n.

The plan to raise a million dollars for
the University of Vermont is well under
way and the campaign is being directed
by Prof Howes of the Greek department.
Committees have been formed in Boston,
New York and other centres and an en-
ergetic canvass has been inaugurated.
Vermonters take a just pride in this IA
nous university and loyal alumni all
over the land will see to it that the next
commencement will find the institution
in possession of a million dollars. In
this connection it is a pleasant task to
perform to deny the report which appear
ed in the Boston papers that President
Buckham is soon to resign. Mr..
Buckham is the first citizen of Bur-
1ington and has been one of the
principal factors in making the UNI
versity what it is today.

ST. Johnsbury'S Delegate.

The Vermont press have taken very
kindly to the suggestion of H. N. Turner
for one of the delegates at large to the
Chicago convention and the best that
has been yet said comes from the editor
of the Enosburg Standard. After copy
ing the very favorable notice in the Nor
risvlle News and Citizen, the Standard
says:
1--WE most cheerfullv endorse this sug-
gestion of sending the Hon. H. N. Turner
of St. Johnsbury as one of the delegates
to the next republican national couven-
ton. Mr.. Turner is at the head of one
of the largest manufacturing enter
prises in the commonwealth, is man
of commanding ability in the line of in
dustrial expansion, is not an ofhce-seeker
in any sense of the word, and represents
in a high degree the very best citizenship
of the state; his selection would reflect
honor upon the party. Just such men
as Mr.. Turner should be recognized spon-
taneously, without any necessity of a
self made boom in their interests. The
Standard sincerely hopes that the sug-
gestion of bis selection will materiaIize
at the state convention in April"

w. B. Eastman Relies upon Hyomei.
Cures Colds, Cough Catarrh and Grip.
Just Breathe 1t.

HyOme1 is natures own method for
curing catarrh, colds, coughs and dis
eases of the respiratory organs. 1t is the
only natural treatment for the cure OF
these troubles.
Breathed through the neat pocket in
haler that comes with every outfit, the
air that passes into The throat and lungs,
is identical with that on the mountains,
where it is laden with healing and health
giving balsafns. 1t searches out and kills
disease germs in the most remote and
minute air cells OF the head, throat and
lungs, it soothes and heals all irritation
of the mucous membrane.
Hyomei is prescribed by physicians gen
orally. Many of them use it themselves
to break up cold and prevent pneu-
monia.
The complete Hyomei outfit consists
of a neat inhaler, that is so small and
convenient that it can be carried in the
pocket or purse. medicine dropper and
bottle of Hy omit. This costs but ST, ,
and it will cure any ordinary case of ca
tarrh. In chrome and deep seated condl-
tions, longer use is necessary and extra
bottles OF Hyomei can be obtained for
soc, making it a most economical treat
ment for this disease.
w. B. Eastman has so much confidence
in the power OF Hyomei to cure catarrh
and other disc asses of the throat and
lungs that he sells it under his personal
guarantee to refund the money to any
purchaser in case it fails to give satisfac-
ton. He takes all the risk himself, and
Hyomei costs you absolutely othing un-
less it does you good.

The Treaty with Panama.

Senator Morgan of Alabama, an ear
nest champion of an interoceanic canal,
for quarter of century, preferably at
Nicaragua, surprised the senate and the
country the other day, by submitting
bill for the annexa ton of the new repub-
lie of Panama to the United States. He
magnanimously acquiesced in the recog-
milton by several nations, about twenty
in number, of the independence of Pana-
ma, as an irrevocable accomplished fact.
The senator submits his bill "for reasons
of public necessity and public safety"
Hitherto he has urged the merits of a
ship canal by way of Lake Nicaragua, as
preferable to Panama. He has learned
that the people of this country appear to
prefer canal on the lines of least dis
tance, that is by the Panama route, and
admits that there is one serious objection
to the Nicaragua route, namely:
"We could not possibly get from (the
governments of Nicaragua and Costa
RIGA that degree of sovereignty that
we get under the third article of this
(Hay-Varilla) treaty. We could not get
it.
We have got no power in respect of
the isthmian country that we ought IN
the slightest degree to throw away.
We are liable to be met there with
difficulties arising out OF the spirit of the
people and the government, and difficult
ties inspired from other parts of the
world to prevent us from controlling in
supreme right, 1 will say, or in sover-
eighty our canal route across that 18TH
mus. We have it in our power to secure
the whole. Pass this bill (of annexation)
and we will get them all.
am anxious to have this question set
tied in the interest of peace and of good
will, and of success for an isthmian canal,
and also of success in getting within the
powers of the United States the right to
control in any and in every emergency
the transit routes through the isthmian
country of America"
The intent and purpose of the distin-
guished senator, after all, seems to be
very like that of most Americans, the
absolute control by the United States
government of an isthmian canal.
