Communication.

AS some question has been raised in
regard to the right of citizen to appear,
whether in his inherent capacity as a
citizen or as representative of some
indi vidual or body of individuals, before
the board Of civil authority to give evil
dence and information and make obiec-
tons in regulating the check list, and
inasmuch as Harry B. Amey, Esq, has
strenuously maintained that such right
exists, further proof of the correctness
of his opinion in this regard is given by
the publication, at the request of several,
of an opinion written by the Hon. Jona-
than Ross, for twenty eight years judge
of the supreme court of Vermont-ED.
The opinion is as follows:
Harry B. Amey, Esq.
Dear Sir
You ask for my opinion on this ques-
ton: "Have | the right in my capacity
as citizen and voter in the town of
Brighton to appear before the Honorable
Board Of Civil Authority and make
objections to names being put on the
check list, giving my reason therefor
and to examine witnesses including the
applicant p You also ask if you have
such right as the attorney of political
committee, or of person, asking to
have his name placed on the check list :
The answer to the first question carries
the answer to the last question. If a
citizen has the right to appear before
the Board of Civil Authority and be
heard in reference to any name, on, or
to be put on, the check list, he has the
right to employ you to appear for him
or his attorney. So too would you have
the right to appear as the attorney of
any committee of citizens.
My answer to your first question is,
that you have the right to appear, and
to be heard, and to produce witnesses,
and to examine witnesses produced, in
regard to the right of any person to
have his name placed on the check list.
Of course you should appear in courte-
Gus, orderly manner and your inquiries
and evidence should be pertinent to the
right of the person whose name is on,
or to be put on, the check list, as voter.

Why is it that leading newspapers in
the state are continually threatening
the disruption of the republican party
unless certain implied concessions OF
principle are made to the whims OF
certain class? If the republicans OF any
town in this state have seen fit to elect
a town representative who personally
does not believe in the further retention
of the license law, and who therein truly
represents the majority of his constitu-
ents, although it is not singing the hymn
of sStand pat" to the party platform, it
is not within the power of the Messen-
ger or any other to rule him or them
out of the republican party. 1t is all
contemplate bosh and rotten nonsense
to keep telling upright, honest, Christian
gentlemen, who have spent long lives of
service in the ranks of the republican
party, that personal principle is valueless
if it happens to run up against some
plank in party platform. There is
probably more policy and less principle
in the politics of this, than of any
former age. If the party is to be dis
rupted in 1904, just tell us plainly who
the disrupters are to be, and mention
the cause; also, which is superior, ;
party convention, or the Legislature
which represents the whole people fal
more truly than a convention? We be
lieve fully in the license plank OF the
platform, but we do not claim to judge
others honesty of purpose if they think
differently. And if the great republican
party, with all its splendid past, mus
live OF die at the hands of the liquo
issue, it will be because of the rottennes
of politics aud the thraldom of persona
principle.

Member Discusses KNIGHTS
Columbus Proposition.

Madison members of the order of
knights of Columbus are awaiting
with interest the decision of the SUI
preme body as to the eligibility of the
order in aftiiHating with the American
Federation of Catholic societies. It
is the prevailing opinion in this city
that the supreme council will not de
eide the question, at least TOR several
weeks. No pressure has been brought
to bear, and the matter is one that
need not be decided hastily.
In speaking of the much discussed
proposition a Madison member ztar,

BlUEBERRIES.
To be Continued.

Sing a song of blueberries
While busy fingers ply;
And let it be a drowsy glee,
A pasture lullaby.
Set it to the ting-a-ling
OF grazing cows a-dream:
Sing song of blueberries.
OF blueberries and cream,
Sing song of blueberries
And chant it to the stars;
Steal the notes from sparrow throat:
And write it at the bars;
Cross it with the liquid runs
OF purling mountain stream:
Sing a song of blueberries.
OF 5lueberries and creaml
Sing a song of blueberries,
And end it with a sigh
For the unpicked blueberries
On bushes low and high.
