Democracy would doubtless attempt TO
explain all this away by saying that
tax is a tax. and that the people In
reality pay the bills 10 matter " LetheT
State expenses are paid 10y N ans OF

means Of a direct State tax ias In the

believes he could ride. or have his
freight carried ON a railroad more
cheaply If the State expenses We're
paid directly out OF his pocket instead
of by the railroads, a. at present! We
wonder who will answer.
Vermont Republicans have guided the
government OF Vermont for half IA cen

with financial problems Of magnitude
they have reached the long sought for
goal, and today the people are seeing
the entire machinery oil the State man

1t stands every republican in the
town of Brighton to be on hand and
cast his ballot for Orange l.. Mansur
for representative to the general assem-
bly,, and for the other candidates on the
state and county tickets. All have
been selected for their honesty, stead
fastness to the principles of the party,
and their fitness to hold Office. With
Mr.. Mansur to represent them their
interest in the legislature will not be
overlooked, but their necessities studied,
and he will work with an eye single fol

every republican cast his ballot fol

Essex county republicans should
bear in mind that the republican vote
cast for county senator next Tuesday is
the basis of representation at the next
county convention.
The nominees on this ticket are all
good men, and We feel assured of their
success; at the same time every republi-
can should vote and work the same as
if the result was wholly dependent upon
his vote aud effort. This will give
every town in the county the fullest
representation at the next convention.

Those interested in politics and gifted
also with sense of humor, are probably
making merry over the spectacle afforded
by the Hon. Bourke Cochran on the
stump advocating the election of pre-
eminently "safe and sane" candidate. 1t
is somewhat surprising that the man
ayers dared to risk him. The Hon.
Bourke is one of those apt to speak "not
wisely but too WE'LL" and a "foolish
consistency" is not one of his faults
or virtues () His brilliant oratorical
flights are given extempore; herein lies
the danger to the candidate, for those
not we'll Informed will assume that he
is endorsing the leader. In the excite
ment of the hour the versatile Hon.
Bourke might make break and again
introduce his desire to "burn down every
custom house in the country,"a pro-
ceeding neither safe nor sane; and per-
chance reiterate some of the ideas held
by him when on the stump for McKin-
ley-these little bit off color also. at
is only a fool that never changes his
mind" The Hon. Bourke has perfect
right to improve his mind and give the
country the benefit of the results, but
the well informed will take him with
several grains of salt.

HADN'T THOUGHT OF THAT.
There Were Obstacles to the Free
Movement of Doors That
Opened Outward.

There was man who had read that il
was safer TO make the doors Of all houses
open outward instead OF inward, says the
Chicago Tribune.
He remembered il, and when he built a
house of his own he had all the outer
doors hung in accordance with that idea.
One bright morning in March he moved
into his new. home.
Late in the evening of the same day it
began to snow, and it kept on showing un-
til the ground was covered foot deep,
Then the wind blew and piled the snow
in drifts.
After which il began to rain.
The ruin later turned to sleet and the
mercury sank 20 degrees.
And the next morning the neghbors
were astonishcd beyond measure at the
sight of frenzied man with his head thrust
out of a second story front window of that
house, gesticulating wildly to a boy on the
sidewalk and begging him for heaven =
sake to go and call the fire department
and have the ice and snow blasted away
from his doors 30 he could open tAein and
get out of the house!

board of Naval Officers May BE APP

the Navy.

Washington, April 16.-Searching in
vestigation will be made by the court
Of inquiry on the Missouri accident, re-
garding the statement that four
charges of ammunition were in the
handling room Of the after turret OF the
Missouri ready to be hoisted to the
turret at the time the explosion oc-
CURED. This fact has been reported in
the newspaper dispatch from Pensa-
cola, and seems to be borne out by the
statement of number of officers, and
that it has been thought necessary in
order to fire as rapidly as our ships
have been firing to keep several charges
in turret room, enough though thought
it is not in accord with the regulations
that no time be lost in bringing the
charges from the magazine. If such be
the case, it can be stated that this con-
dition of affairs will be promptly rem
edied. 1t was pointed out at the navy
department by an official that the GUS
tom prevailed on board the other ships
of the navy of keeping several extra
charges in the handling room during
traget practice, and it was said If this
we're so, no one on the Missouri could
be held responsible.
Notwithstanding the mystery which
still surrounds the cause of the Mis-
souri, accident, the announcement was
made at the navy department that
there would be no suspension of target
practice at Pensacola, but that the 9TH
er ships which have not yet fired will
go on the range at the regular time.
1t was learned that the navy depart
ment is considering the appointment of
a board Of distinguished naval officers
to take up the whole question Of target
practice in the navy, pass upon the ef-
ficiency of the precautions at present in
practice, and make a report to the Sec
rotary, showing, among other things,
whether the present system of target
practice should be modified. The name
of Admiral Dewey has been unofficially
mentioned as the president of the
board, but this has not been decided
upon. 1t was said that the appoint
ment of such board necessarily will
depend upon the findings of the court
Of inquiry. A telegram received at the
navy department announces the APP
pointment of Lieut.. NJ l.. Bristow as
judge advocate of the court of inquiry
Lieut. Bristol is one of the ordnance
experts of the navy, and an officer of
marked ability
