Points From Presidents Message.

I most earnestly recommend that there
be no halt in the work of upbuilding the
American navy.
! especially commend to your immediate
attention the encouragement of our rner-
chant marine by appropriate legislation
There should be a comprehensive re-
vision of the na turalization laws.
In criminal cases the writ OF the United
States should run through its borders.
| recommend the enactment OF law
directed against bribery and corruption
in federal election.
Wherever the national government has
power there should be a stFingent en-
ployer's liability law.
Abundant-revenues and large surplus
always invite extravaganza, and CON
slant care should be taken to guard
against unnecessary increase of the or
binary expenses of government.
The ever-increasing casualty list upon
our railroads is matter Of grave public
concern and urgently calls for action by
the Congress.
There is no objection to employees of
the government forming Or belonging to
unions, but the government can neither
discriminate for nor discriminate against
non union men.
Ii is an absurdity to expect to eliminate
the abuses IN great corporations by state
action. 1t is difficult to be patient with
an argument that such matters should
be LETT to the state.
The policy of the bureau (of corpor-
ations) is to accomplish the purposes of
its creation by cooperation, not antag-
onism; by making constructive legisla-
ton, not destructive prosecution, the
immediate object OF it's inquiries.
Above all else we must strive to keep
the highways of commerce open to all on
equal terms; and to do this it is necessary
to put a complete stop to all rebates.
In my Judgment the most important
legislative act now needed as regards the
regulation OF corporations is the act to
confer on the interstate commerce com
mission the power to revise rates and
regulations, the revised rate to go at once
into effect and to stay in effect unless and
until the court of review reverses it.
Chronic wrongdoing or an Importance
which results in a general loosening of
the ties of civilized society, NAV, in Amer
lea as elsewhere, ultimately require inter
vention by some civiliz I'd nation.
1t is contemplate for a nation, as for
an individual. to use high-sounding Ian
guage to proclaim its purposes, or to
take positions which are ridiculous if
unsupported by potential force, and then
to refuse to provide the force.
1t has proved very difficult to secure
from Russia the right for our Jewish
fellow citizens to receive passports and
travel through Russian territory. Such
conduct is not only Unjust and irritating
towards us, but it is difficult to see its
wisdom from Russia's standpoint.

"DEAR Mrs. PNKHAM 81 suffered

No one can describe the good it did me.
1 took three bottles faithfully, and be-
sides building up my general health,
it drove all disease and poison out Of
my body, and made me feel as spry and
active as young girl. Mrs. Pinkham's

timely words from her will show
you the right thing to do. This
advice costs you nothing, but it
may mean life or happiness or

A Case of PrOnounS.

Tommy Mulligan, of the seventh grade
was absent from the classroom for one
entire day. 1t would appear that he
had played truant, for unknown to Tom
my his teacher had spied him trudging
homeward with his pockets bullying sus-
piciously when she too was homeward
bound that afternoon.
But Tommy brought note of excuse
the next morning, which of course would
prove that he had been detained at home
legitimately. The writing was hardly
that of a feminine hand, and the note
appeared to haveb been written la borious1y
and with much blotting; furthermore,
the pepmauship seemed strangely familiar
to his teacher. The note read as follows
Dear teacher-Pleas excus Tony for
not comeing to shool yestiddy. he cudnot
come tore my pants.-MRS. NULL

Our Home Town.

On DanyiIle's charming hills stand,
And view the landscape Ger;
Fair fields and forests near and far,
In majesty appear.
Ewes may not see nor hearts perceive,
The glory of this scene,
While mists of earthly darkness hide
The Joys divine, serene
Far to the east on mountain top,
The tints of morning shine.
And later still at evening tide,
We see the days decline.
Far to the north with open face,
The pole star glistens still,
While onward to the ba1my south;
Our ken can range at viii.
A wide extended view so rare.
Not often greets the eye;
Nor air nor skies pure and free
AS these that rule on high.
We are not Pagons, but believe
In faith and love and prayer;
We're not of superstition born,
Nor bate our breath with care
The type, the shadow or the sheen.
No longer casts us down;
We live and breathe and love to dwell
In good old Danville town.
And so this giant tail and great,
With wide extended arms,
The points of compass well describes
With face and feet and charms.
What harm, ween, can gods inf1ict,
Or i'm ages inspire,
While One who lives and reigns DER all,
Is ruled by one desire!
And thus his and servant come,
To lie in cradle strange;
He bore the cross and thOrny crown,
The glory and the shame.
What wonder, then, that Danville town
Hath grace and beauty great;
What wonder that her queens and men,
Are honored in the gate!
In cities fair that skirt the sea,
Send here their dusty crews;
a n
To cure the vesting blues.
Ger swelling heights they roam at will,
Or ride along the way;
Nor brook nor pond nor dash1ng wave,
Can bid them only stay.
From Harvey down the nill-road wild.
They dash or stop to play -
Along those banks where waters leap,
And cascades lift their spray.
Our pilgrim guests are going now,
And turn to say Good bye;"
The summer sweets they've slipped SO long
Wil1 win them back some day.
We bid them come, nor gr1eve the gain,
They grieve or take away;
Not better men women live,
Save those that come to stay.

The Editors Wife.

The following letter from S. II. Dun
can, editor of the Seaton, ILL.,, Independ-
emit, shows that there is at least one edi
tor who wants to help others. He writes
as follows:
"To the EDITOR of the Caledonian:

Bank will Ask for Extension of Charter.
The directors of the First National
Bank of Montpelier will ask within
short time for an extension of the charter
of that institution since the charter ex-
pires December "a. After the extension
is secured then two courses can be adop-
ted, to continue business or liquidate.
In case of liquidation it is said to be
cheaper for the bank to liquidate itself
rather than go through the usual pro-
cess in such cases. It is said that in the
neighborhood of 80 per cent of the stock
has signed in favor of extending the char
ter under the arrangement agreed on.
Immediately folio wing the stockholders
meeting few weeks ago the books of
the bank were by special vote examined
by an expert. Bank Examiner F. S.
Platt, with the result that the stock was
figured to be worth from 90 to 90 per
cent.
II the present bank goes out of business
it would not be a strange thing to see an
other bank started. 1t is said that one
Montpelier bank has offered to purchase
$3.50 900 of the assets of the First Ma
tional Bank and give stock in its bank in
exchange.

On the tracks in the Santa Fe yards

TWO WATERSPOUTS.
by Crew of the Gaelic on
Coast of Japan.

San Francisco, April 1S.-Two great
water spouts were Witnessed from the
deck of the liner Gaelic on March 81.
soon after the vessel left the coast of
Japan both in latitude 81 degrees, 81
minutes north, longitude 143 degrees Is
minutes east. The Gaelic was proceed
ing in a smooth sea and good weather
when the first waterspOut was sighted
a mile away, bearing sOuth-southeast
and travelling from east to west at the
rate of about five knots an hour. Just
previous to the appearance of the wa
terspout heavy, dark masses of clouds
were seen rising to the eastward in the
shape of mountains, and a heavy down
pour of rain was experienced. Later
fierce squau followed and the water
spout churned the sea up like the pro-
peller of a steamer, and made a noise
like that produced by a waterfall. The
second wataTspOut passed within 200 Cr
300 yards of the Gaelic. It was a mueh
larger waterspout than the first one
and made more noise, and churned up
the sea with great violence. The wind
at the time was east-south, very strong,
with a strong rough sea and fierce
squalls and rain prevailing at inter-
vals
The Gaelic brought a rich cargo Of
freight, the principal items being SAC
boxes of opium worth, duty paid, about
$4,000; SIS bales of raw silk, worth
about $613, 900 and 5,S0O00O in Japanese
gold yen, equivalent TO $2,900,000 in
United States gold coin

ROBBED OF RIGHTS.
Samuel GOmpers Speaks for the
Miners of Colorado.

Denver, Colo. April 1S.-Considera-
ton of the eight hour and anti-injunc-
1ion measures pending before con-
gress is perhaps the most important
business of the quarterly meeting of
the executive council of the American
Federation of Labor which began in
this city today The Colorado labor
troubles viii also be thoroughly dis
cussed.
Referring to the course of Governor
James H. Peabody in dealing with
strikes of metalliferous and coal min
ers in this state. President Gompers
said:
THE violation of the fundamental
principles of our country has made
Colorado the laughing stock of the
country. as we'll as the rest of the civ
ilized world. Besides. it robs men of
the actual rights and protection guar
anteed them by the constitution.
at appears to me that if law con-
tinues to be over ridden as it has
been in the past, the fight will soon
develop from a technical legal con-
flict to d physical one. That would
be the most deplorable thing we could
have in a country or state having a
Republican form of government"
At the morning session the council
appointed a subcommittee of which
President Gompers is chairman, to
consider Thomas NJ. Patterson's bill
for the exclusion of the Chinese.
