PRESS COMMENT.

Former Residents Always WeIcome.
As the weeks go on it is pretty evident
that Vermont is to have mo general Old
Home week celebration this year. There
has been no movement for such an
undertaking and the time is mario wing
down to point, where it will be toe
late to start the project for this year.
From every standpoint it is unfortunate
that the enthusiasm of the first gather
ing so completely spent itself that there
is little prospect of a revival of interest
in the matter. The sons and daughters
of Vermont outside the state may, how
ever. be sure of a warm if somewhat
quiet welcome, when they visit us. If
we on t kill the fatted calf, it is likely
that in most instances they will find
spring chicken on the table, Mortified
News.

sion assumes the more serious duties OF it's
Office it surely will not overlook the men
that have been voting the Democratic
ticket in Vermont for the last 40 years.

What They Think of Darling.
The naval service in all its branches is
fortunate in having as assistant secre-
tary of the navy a man of the ability,
liberalitv, fairness, and courage of
Charles Fl. Darling. He would make an
excellent head of the navy department.
and those who have a pride in the best
interests and elements in the service will
hope to see Mr.. Darling succeed Mr..
Moody when the latter retires from the
cabinet.-[Army and Navy Register.
Judge Powers Appointment.
Gov. Mccullough of Vermont has
apparently made wise choice in the
appointment of George M. Powers of
Morrisville as Judge of the Vermont SUI
preme court to fill the vacancy caused
by the resignation of Judge Stafford.
Mr.. Powers is only ~ years old, but
has for number ofyea1 been recognized
as one of the ablest lawyers at the Yer
mont bar. He has for the past two
years been supreme court reporter, which
has COME to be regarded as stepping
stone to the bench. Judge Haselton and
Judge Stafford, for instance, were thus
promoted. It is pleasant to note that
the appointment cannot be called a po-
litical one. Some disappointment may
be felt by the lawyers OF the northeastern
counties-Essex, Orleans and Caledonia,
that for the first time in many years,
they have no judge in that section. The
geogra phical distribution, with Mr..
Powers on the bench is a fairly reason
able one, although St. Johnsbury would
seem to be the natural location most
conveniently to serve all the counties
| named, and not inconvient for Lamoille
county. No one is likely to find fault
| with the governors choice and there
will be general expression of pleasure
that while the state loses so valuable
jurist as Judge Stafford, he is to be
followed by a competent man of much
promise.-[Spring6eld Republican.

Dr. H. F. Palmer representing Parke, Davis & Co.,, of Detroit, Mich. with Kreso Dip, who has been dipping sheep about here during the past two months. went to Albuquerque Saturday He expects to dip some four thousand sheep for V. P. Edie at Houcks Tank and will then work north into Kansas, where he will demonstrate his dip upon cattle
 From reports and also from letters shown us by Dr. Palmer we find that all who used or saw the results of his dip were well satisfied with it. The scabby sheep were entirely cured of the scab and no irritation or injury to either sheep or wool.
 The following letter shows what one who used the dip thinks of it:
 Holbrook, May 23d, 1904.
 Last winter I ran herd of bucks which was very scabbv, l dipped the herd twice The first time on April 9th. and the second time on April 14th. using Kreso Dip for each dipping. The bucks carried a ten months fleece. At- ter dipping find my bucks com. pletely cured have had fifteen years experience with various k!nds of dips and I will say that Kreso Dip is one of the best dips that can be used to cure scab. Many sheepmen saw my herd before dipping and their condi- ton at that time and after see ing them dipped were we'll satis- fled that Kreso Dip is a very good dip to cure scab.

w. ]. Arkel. formerly publisher Of
Judge and Leslie's Weekly, tells this
story apropos of Mr.. Joseph Pulitzer's
gift TO Columbia university:
''When Joseph Pulitzer came to New
York to take the World out of the hands
of William Hurlbert and Manton Mar
BILE he invited q notable company to
dinner on the evening after the first
paper was issued under his manage
ment. The party included. as nearly
as can remember, John A Cockrell,
who afterWard died in Alexandria,
Egypt, while In the service of the New
York Herald, Ballard Smith, who was
for time managing editor of the SUI !;
Charles Brooks, the criminal lawyer;
John r. Fellows. the talented district
attorney, and others whose names
can not now recall. Instead of taking
them to Delnonieo's, where they all
expected to go. Mr.. Pulitzer conducted
them to Hitchcock's famous beanery,
then occupying cellar on the spot
where the Pulitzer building now stands.
Said he, as he ordered beef and beans
and 'sinkers' and coffee for the whole
party
"Gentlemen, when the Princeton or
Harvard graduate comes to New York
to enter journalism he dimes first at
Delmonico's and ends UP at Hitch
cocks. We Will begin, with your per-
mission, at Hitcheocks and we hope
to end at Delanonico's.'

statement is an exposure. 1t settles the
authenticity of the Hull-Cummins
agreement and fatty saddles Captain
Hull with the responsibility of keep
ing or breaking it. That LATE Young,
and such standpatters as are of the
Young stripe, should indulge in polil-
cal sneak thieyery and insist upon the
reputation of an honest compact for
present advantage will cause few OF
their political intinates TO stand open
mouthed in astonishment, but better
things are to be expected and required
of Captain Hull. The fact is plain and
should be made evident to the state at
large that the standpat coup in Polk
county was as filthy and disreputab,e
political trick as the tissue ballots
and other detestable and vicious prac-
tees that have made Des Moines city
politics the talk of the country.

The PRICE OF PREJUDICE.

The democratic legislature of Mary
land recently made the domination of
the state by the democratic party prac-
tically certain by passing the law con-
tanning the understanding clause"
making the registration officers judges
OF the voters ability ito make reason
able explanation of any section of the
Maryland constitution submitted to him
by these officers. This law does pre-
cisely what 1t was intended to do and
puts the power to disfranchise the ne
gro vote in the hands of the democracy
<hru its registration boards. 1t is not
likely that Booker T. Washington would
be able to explain reasonably any sec
lion OF the constitution to a bourbon
democrat whose political faith consists
OF an equal fear of "nigger domination"
and republican success.
Political crimes often carry their own
punashnent and the respectable and
sensible democratic and Independent
elements OF the state are already ques-
tioning tile wisdom OF turning over the
fortunes Of Maryland to the bourbons.
The question is being asked by the
Maryland press. us it better to put. up
with the negro and progress. CONNER

der republican rule or to eliminate the

should excel all other states 2"
The Maryland situation is represent
tative. Democratic control means stag
nation Republican success at the
polls means precisely the opposite. 1t
IL the verdict Of history that industries
grow and trade and prosperity progress
under re pubMcan rule and retrograde
under democratic control. Maryland is
already discerning that absolute domi-
nation OF her state interests by the
democrats is an exhorbitant price to
nay for negro acknowledgements The
democratic trolley won't work on the
wire OF prosperity. Maryland is paying
che price Of prejudice.

then suggested that perhaps the big
Chicago firm might make contribu-
ton to help the poor man out OF his
difficulty. II have noticed" continued
he. that those big mail order houses
that get cash from you fellows when
you have it, but when you are broke and
ask credit of the home merchant, are
very liberal in helping to build church
ies supporting schools, building side
walks. paving streets and helping in
every way to build up the community.
and I should think they would be de-
lighted to make a liberal contribution
such as you suggest for the benefit OF
your stricken neighbor'' The fellow
saw the point. That evening as he
drove home the wind blew thru his
whiskers When he reached the gate
at his comfortable domicile the friendly
dog that come out to greet him got a
vigorous kick. the old family COW that

night because of some alleged infrac-

next day it rained.

[Fort Dodge Messenger.

lfort Dodge Messenger
The famous mayor Of Gowrie was in
town las. week Mr.. Sorber is an orig
inal and amusing conversationaIist and
has many interesting "reminiscences of
the early days in Iowa. He came to
this part of Iowa in 1865 from Maquo-
keta, where he lived as a child and
young man, and where he married.
His home was near what is now Cher
okee and one day his little daughter
was III, seemingly quite seriously sick.
He felt that doctors advice was
necessary.
The nearest doctor was at Fort
Dodge, ninety miles east. He took the
stage and arrived at the fort, trans
acted his business, interviewed the
doctor, procured some medicine from
him and 1t was then Sunday morning
and as there was no stage out until
Tuesday. he thought he would walk
about twenty-five miles to a place
where he could catch another stage.
Arriving at this place he laid down to
rest. as 1t was evening, and told the
landlord OF the way station on the
stage road to wake him at IL o'clock
when the stage went thru. He slept
soundly and the man. forgetting his
request.tlid not awaken him. The stage
had passed and there was nothing to
do but to go on to Sac City, OR rather
the little settlement that was the
beginning OF Sac City.
He arrived there tired and worn on
Monday. There was queer feeling
in the air and the man OF the house
where he stopped to be fed said: II
am. sure we are going to have a biz
zard within twentyfour or thfrty-six
hours" That word was a terror in
Iowa at that time. I'VE are likely to
be showed in for weeks" This was
enough for the father Whose sick
daughter was waiting for the inedi-
cine and whose wife was alone on the
prairies, and he said: We'll, II that's
possible. IN not wait for the stage,
but push on"
On Tuesday evening Mr.. Sorber ar
rived at his home completely worn
out, having walked ninety miles from
Sunday to Tuesday night. He was
Obliged to stay in bed for a few days.

Gus change has been wrought in the
short space of forty years and also the
heroic qualities of character which
such endeaver and hardships brought
out in the men and women that We're

When the mayor from Gowrie hnish-

could find such another country as
that was / would go there tomorrow.
