The Way to Keep Apples.

Mr.. j. NJ. Russell tells us of "a
rood way To keep apples during
wintcr. He SAYS all that Is ncccS-
~ary Is to place the fruit in barrels
and let them stand in open houses.
In the dry. The fruit must not be
handled or moved. ~ proof of
this idea, he presented the editor
with some excellent York Imperial
apples which had been kept in an
open house during the hard winter
past. They are i'm excellent condi-
tion and show mo- i'll effects from

For Democracy

In conversation with an Fast
side voter, we were told:
1T looks as though the County
Committee was trying to freeze
out all of the voters on the East
side. Their action in setting the
mass meetings as they did will
cause many East side voter, to
remain at home. The East side
voters feel that if they do not at
tend the meetings they will not ne
bound to abide by the decision Of
that meeting.
That l. a very grave mistake.
Every Democratic voter. no
matter whether he lives on the
Fast side or the West side. should
attend the mass meeting Saturday
and vote his sentiment.
If it Is "A fact that the Committee
Is trying to freeze out" the East
side voter. it viii bee playing into
their hands if YOU stay at home.
If YOU are dissatisfied with the
present County Committee. or if
YOU ever expect to get member
elected To- that Committee. YOU
can't even hope for success, by
staying at home.
Silence will never elect your
man. You must vote,
II will cost YOU some ferriage
and long ride. bat what do they
amount to when your political
lif" Is at stake.
The CoUWrr believes that mass
meetings should bc held al every
voting precinct. but the County
Committee has decided otherwise.
Ii YOU don't like II. YOU have the
remedy of ballots.
But. as you are Democrats. oct
to the mass meetings and vote for
Your choice.
Don t talk about 'bolting."
If your home /, az the County
line on the East side. and mass
meeting should De called To- meet
at the Opequon, il Is your duty to
Democracy To pay Your ferriage
and toll and vote your sentiment.

Democracy.
You not only can win. bur YOU
WILL WIN. If you attend the

At the New Roundhouse.

The drop pits are being put in at
the roundhouse, while the concrete
is going in for the rest of the stalls.
The bad weather the past week has
prevented the finishing of the roof
on the mach ne shop, and also inter
fered with much other outside work,
bat the inside finishing has gone
along rapidly. The cleaning up
process will be slow, owing TO
frost, as will also the filling in of
gravel around the building and in
side Of it. The turntable ia com
pleted and only awaits the laying of
track to it to be put to use.
As the work nears completion the
torce is being gradually reduced, but
there is enough yet to do tu keep q
large number of men at work fol
many weeks. Most of the brick
masons and carpenters have been
sent to other points where round
houses are going up.

An Electric Line.

The Post says Mr.. Slusser who
owns the electric light plant in
Pars, is now figuring on an electric
car line to run from Montpelier to
Fish Haven.
The Examiner believes that such
line will be built some day, and
the sooner the better The line
would be of great benefit to Mont
pelier and the towns through which
it would run. Ample power for it
can be had on thr west side of the
valley and the proposition ought to
be paying one from the start.
The Examiner hopes the scheme,
like some similar ones before, will
not prove to be merely hot air.

Pertinent Comments.

Eal,>r Examiner: It appears to
hurt the Editor of the Post because
the people Of Dingle has bridge
across Bear river. If | remember
things rightly some of the leading
lights of Paris advocated the build
ing of the Dingle bridge as much SO
as the people of Dingle, and let me
say right here that it is credit TO
the board of county commissioners
who appropriated the money for the
building of it. Ii we had few
more such bridges instead Of such
rattletraps as some are across Bear
river The people would not be to the
expense of hauling rock every year
TO protect the banks III order 10
keep them from washing away, ncr
would there be any lives lost by
runaways. And in my opinion 1t
would be better for the editor afore-
said to observe the Mormon creed,
the very thing that he advises others
to do, and which fits his case exact
. ly when he attempts to attack the
Board for the building of the
bridge which is a benefit to not only
the people of Dingle but the people
of the whole county,
! I am republican dyed in the
wool, but | am willing to give credit
where credit is due, and the Board
OF County Commissioners who were
instrumental in expending the peo-
ple's money for SO wise purpose,
should be highly commended.
If the bridge had been built at
some point on Paris creek 1t would
be horse of another color.

EIGHT HOURS IN POST OFFICES

EIGHT HOURS IN POST OFFICES.
After having been applied provision
ally in the workshops Of the Postal
and Telegraph department, situated in
the Boulevard Bruno, Paris, from Sep
tember 16, 1899, to February 9, 1901,
the Eight-Hour day was, on the latter
date, introduced as a definite measure,
the hours of labor having previously
been ten. In considering the result Of
this departure, 1t is to be noted that
some Of the work people employed
were paid time wages. while others
were on piece-wages. At the end Of
the first three months it was found
that no appreciable reduction of out
put had resulted from the change.
Since then there has been decline.
It is stated. however. that. the true
cause Of this decline is the suppression
of piece-work rather than the introduce
tion Of the eight day. :
Owing to the increase Of staff rem
dered necessary by the reorganization
of the service, an increased expendi-.
ture Of $4,000 fraAcs &c 1920 per an
mum has been incurred. This repres-
ents an increase of "a per cent of the
wages paid under the ,ten-hour sys-
tenn, whereas the reduction Of work
ing hours amounted to twenty per cent.
