B ell, of Walden, or Lieut.. Gov. Zed
s. Stanton, of Roxbury. The stalwart
republicanisrn of those men, the USE
fulness OF their public service, their
high character, all, were cordially
conceded on every hand, but there
was still a well defined and earnest
desire expressed by the little knots OF
gossips that the standard bearer who
is to lead the reunited forces of YER
mont republicanism to victory in this
presidential campaign should be
Vermonter whose personal career,
talents, and temperament offer the
most likelihood of arousing the en-
thusiastic support of the rank and
file of the party and particularly of
the Younger element upon whom the
heat and burden of the campaign
work will fall It was considered
very doubtful il Percival W. Clement,
of Rutland, actually came into the
field at all, but, if he did, it was the
opinion that he would be more sue
cessfully opposed by such a man as
Joseph A. DeBoer, of Montpelier, or
James L. Mar tin, of Brattleboro, than
by any man now in the field. 1t is
not too much to say that the proposal
of DeBoer's name was especially
gratifying to the younger members of
the party.
But there are still sixty-odd days
in which to thresh this all out, and
meanwhile the republican party of
Vermont is profting by the first
lesson of the memorable campaign OF
1902 and doing some serious thinking
about the kind of men it will propose
for Office. 1t is healthy sign, an
encouraging omen, that the ticket is
not already cut and dried as it used
to be. The leaders are taking the
people into their counsels nowadays

Explosion at Quarry.
On Monday evening while D. A.
Morrison was on the Blue Mountain
quarry at South Ryegste, filling a
seam from a twenty-five pound can
of powder for the purpose of separat-
ing two large sheets of stone into
suitable shape for quarrying and
hauling to the sheds, in some un-
known way the powder in the can,
which he held under his arm, explode d
with serious and possibly fatal results.
Mr.. Morrison's face was terribly
injured, his lips, cheeks, and eye
brows and the fleshy part of his face
being blown away. It was thought
his eyes were destroyed but the doc
tors think they can be saved. Alex
Mcdonald was assisting Morrison to
do the work and he was badly burned
in the face and about the arms and
hands. He was thrown some distance
but is not considered in a dangerous
condition. This was his first hall

HyOmei Cures Catarrh by Simple
Breathing. H. C.Pierce Refunds
Money if 1t Fails to Cure.
A long stride toward solving the
mystery of curing catarrh was taken
with the discovery of Hyomei. In
fact, the percentage of cures by this
treatment proves it equal to the
final tests.
The folly of taking medicine into
the stomach to cure catarrh of the
nose, throat, and lungs, has been real
lied by physicians, but not until
Hyomei was known had they a prac-
tical method that would obviate
stomach drugging.
A complete Hyomei outfit costs but
81, and consists of neat pocket in
haler that can be used anywhere
without attracting attention, medi-
cine dropper and bottle of Hyomei.
Breathing Hyomei through the
inhaler, every particle of air that
enters the nose, throat and lungs, is
charged with healing balsam that
soothes and allays all irritation, kills
the catarrhal germs and enriches the
blood with additional ozone.
He. Pierce has so much faith in
the power of Hyomei to cure catarrh
that he is selling it under his personal

Unless there is decided change in
public sentiment before the state
convention there will be a large
number of unpledged delegates at the
convention and a majority of these
areIikely to favor J. A. DeBoer tor
governor. No one questions the
ability of Bell, Stanton, or Clement to
perform the duties of the office in an
acceptable manner, but there seems
ito be a disposition on the part of
seoole from every section of the
state to select some man of unques-
toned ability who is not an active
candidate for the Office. Mr.. BeBoer
is recognized as one Of the leading
E,usiness men, not only of Vermont

will be possible for one who is ham
pered by his obligations to the

LETTER TO GEO. GOAD,


Dear Sir: If it took 10 gallons to paint
your house last time with somebody else's
paint, and takes 8 with Devoe, we save you
50 or $40; for painting costs two or three
times as much as paint.
Mr.. Ezra Rathmell, williamsport, Pa,
always used II gallons of mixed paint for his
house; Devoe took 6.
But that isn't all; that's only first cost;
how long will it wearf
The paint, that goes furthest in covering,
wears best too.
All paint, true paint, and full measure, are
on one side; part paint, false paint, and
short-measure are on the other. What can
you expect?
Yours truly
FW DEvoE Co

keeping with the demands of the times.
If policemen have interfered in cleo
lions in this city in the past, why has
not our circuit attorney indicted and
punished them? If he has information
showing that there has been police in
timidation, why has he not tried the
cases in court? Probably he prefers to
take an appeal, as he did from the Su-
preme Court, and try the cases at a
political primary If there was police
intimidation, the circuit attorney neg
lected his duty. If there was no police
intimidation, the charge ought not to
be made
ELECTIONS.
The election law now on the statute
books of Missouri was placed there as
the result of the joint Ia
bors of some of the ablest
men in st. Louis. The president of the
American Bar Association took an
active part in its preparation, as did
also the circuit attorney of the City OF
st. Louis. 1t will meet all require
ments. If anyone has yet pointed out
a defect in its construction or pro-
visions, l do not know what it is. Its
actual operation may develop some OBJ
jections, but up to this time they have
not been found. The question OF eiec-
ton laws can not be an issue Wltnln
the Democratic party, unless the gen
eral election law of the State Of Mis-
souri, is to be changed. No one, either
Democrat or Republican, has asked for
such change.
The real cause of the charge Of "po-
lice interference" and unfair election
laws" is not for the purpose of chang
ing either the police laws or the cleo
ton laws, but simply to lay the
foundation for contest in the prl-
maries to be held in this city. Promi-
nent leaders supporting my opponent
from this city have been talking Of
contesting the delegations from St
Louis. The convention proper may not
be held for six months. Not the first
move has been made to call primary.
The State Committee has not met. And
yet these gentleman are discussing a
contest. What can be their object? 1t
means simply that they know that the
Democrats of this city will give me a
solid delegation to the next State con-
vention. And either they are attempt
ing to discount this strength or they
are sufficiently foolish to talk Of revo-
luton.
A fair and honest primary will be
held in the City of St. Louis for the
State Convention. 1t will be partici-
pated in by Democrats alone. Repub-
licans and recent allies of the Repub-
lican party will not be permitted to
vote. Not one vote will be cast other
than that of a Democrat.
If it had not been for the work of
the Democratic party in st. Louis, our
last State ticket would have been elect
ed by narrow majority Of less than
.six Thousand: The men who fought us
in this election and in the preceding

respect, and look forward confidently
to the time when the true situation OF
affairs will be disclosed to them. For
them l have no criticism. For them
have no unkind word. But for those
living in st. Louis, truly informed of
conditions as they really exist, have
nothing but war War, not because
they do not support my personal asri-
ations, but var because l know that
their coming into power means a vic

destruction of the splendid organiZa-

own aspirations sink into insignifcanG9
as the prospect of such a calamity az
pears. But not Cnce have let myself
believe that true Democrats will per-
nit such a catastrophe.

truth, 1 will go out into the counties
of Missouri, confident that the DemOc-
racy of st. Louis will protect its best
interests. l will not have re-
course for substitutes nor ask assist
ance of anyone to make a canvass for
me. l do not want Missouri congress-
men in my interest 10 neglect their
duties and the work for which they
are paid by their constituents. Nor will
l have Republican money with which
to buy support that does not come to
me voluntarily.
Neither shall l look into political
collins and seek to resuscitate political
corpses to fill my ranks, but will go
boldly into the field, and singly and
alone fight my battle. l have no per-
sonal machine, nor shall l attempt to
build one. l will defend Governor A.
NJ. Dockery, the able and honest DEM
ocrat, who is the chief executive of this

AS a private citizen, without the
power of official prestige, without as
sistance from the metropolitan press,
with only those qualifications which
nature gave me, shall battle to the
end. Believing that right will triumph.
that SANDER will fall before truth, that
hypocrisy must fail, enter into this
campaign determined to succeed. Be-
lieving that the light of truth will dis
solve the fogs Of SANDER, I am conf
dent that to the vision of all will ap-
pear picture Of ST. Louis as a we'll
governed Democratic city, picture Of
Missouri as a well-governed Democrat
ic State of unlimited resources, Of
brave and honest men, both city and
State uninjured by the malignant
shafts of Republican SANDER.
