TO BARRE TOWN VOTERS.

One of the most important issues of the
day, as far as Vermont is concerned, is
that Of good roads. John Jones. the In.
dependent candidate for town repre-
sentative, has had vast amount of ex-
periense in this line, having served the
town of Barre as highway commissioner
for nearly the last ten years, and is claim-
ed BY the state highway commissioner to
be one OF the best In the state. We would
therefore think 1t advisable to send man
TO represent the town who has had so
much experience In the towns affairs. We
do not question the ability or quallfica-
tlons Of the opposing candidates, but we
believe in every man voting for what Il
going TO be for the best interests Of the
town. We should also bear in mind that
the office of representative is one Of more
consequence than We are apt to think. One
man can fill one public Office much better
than another and Mr. Jones In this In
stance Is much the better man. Independ-
ent Voter

St. Adams Too Much
For Hyphens
FIRST GAME TEN INNINGS
Rutlands Defeated Burlington Before
Large Crowd by Score Of
IA to 7.

The hopes Of local base ball enthusiasts
went below zero last evening when the re-
turns came from st. Albans. Barre-Mont-
pelier was defeated by st. Albans in both
games of the double-header, the first by
the score of Q to 5 in ten innings, and the
second by the score of 4 to i Up to that
time there was some hope that the local
team would land somewhere near the top
OF the heap when the season closes Mon
day The hope is etfectually squelched
now, although 1t is is still within the pos
sible that the team may finish second.
Barre Montpelier lost the first game
yesterday when 1t was apparently cinched
Up to the seventh the-score stood four to
one in our favor Then st. Albans step
ped in and scored at least one in every
inning thereafter, tieing In the ninth and
winning out in the tenth. The particular
feature of the game was the stick werk of
George, the st. Albans pitcher, who in
five times up, swatted four safe ones.
The Hyphens scored three Ia the Sec
ond, when McAuliff got first on an error
was sacrificed by Apperious and scored
on o. Iiara's hit, after Page had struck
out. Dorman hit safe and then 0'Hara
and Dorman scored on a passed ball. st.
AlbaDs earned one ln the same inning on
a single by MoGraw and double by VIII
liams.
In the third Morgan got hit with the
ball. Poland singled, then Hennelly, and
Morgan scored. There was nothing more
doing until the seventh, when st. Albans
made one. George and Hafford hit safe
and the former scored on Loughlin's out
at first. Hafford was thrown out at the
plate attempting to score on Benefits Is
grounder. St. Albans made it four TO
four in the eighth. After Higgins had
passed bail sent him 20 third and he
scored on McGraw's hit. Williams was
out at FIRST but George bit for two bases
and MeGraw scored
Each team got one in the ninth, 0'Hara
got free pass Dorman advanced him
with sacrifice aud Harkins flied out.
Morgan got free pass and O'Hara scored
on wild pitch. After Loughlin had
flied out In the same inning Grant hit
safe, stole second. took third on an error,
and scored on Benefits out at first The
score was tied
The visiting team went out easily In the
tenth. The first three men up for st.
Adams, Williams, George and McGraw,
hit safe and Williams went in with the
winning run.
The Barre Montpelier team didn't have
a chance in the second game, and it was
easily the property of st. Adams New
lex pitched for the former and Cox for the
home team.

UNITED WE STAND
DIVIDED WE FALL. J
Republican City Committee Says Some
On the Representative
Question.

Is there any reason, good, bad or indif-
ferent, why Republicans should scatter
their votes and thus lose the effect of a
solid front and worse than that help elect
certain OF the enemy to Office? II there is
reason does it outweigh those on the
other sides
Republicans are united because they be-
lieye Ia certain fundamental principles.
The platforms adopted by the representa-
tives Of Republicans declare these princi-
pies. The candidates nominated by these
same representatives are bound BY these
declarations Of principles and If elected
will carry out your policies thus outlined.
Every candidate Of the opposition whom
you assist In electing is opposed to these
policies and will likely oppose them with
his vote and influence, and thus you. by
voting Tor him, assist in negating what
you desire.
suppose the question should come up
this fall in the legislature as to adopting
Valued Policy regarding fire Insurance?
Which candidate would be the best to
handle the matter, the Democratic who is
agent for several large fire insurance com
panies or the Republican who is not tram
meled In this way?
Perhaps you think this is nothing, but
let us illustrate Suppose you have a
piece Of property that You consider Of the
value of $4,000 and you secure an insur-
ance on 1t for that amount. 1t burns.
The adjuster comes to settle the loss and
some kind (?l neighbor quietly informs
him that your property was OF much less
value, not worth over 1900, and the ad-
luster on like statements concludes not to
pay the 81 600 You have the alternative
Of accepting less, or lighting suit, with
the chances of having these same good (?l
neighbors ready to assist the insurance
corporation. Although the property was
actually worth and cost You the 50, 600
and the loss is total you mnst lose either
way.
The agent who accepted the risk was
the agent Of the company; he took the
premium and the company accepted the
risk and your money and Jet when you
lose, the company can avoid partial pay
ment or force you to expensive litigation.
Under valued policy Law, such as
many states have this could not be done.
The insurance companies are all against
a valued policy.
Is Pape or Wells in the best position to
work Tor the people OF Barre on such q
matter? Wells Of course. Vote for Burt
Ii Wells
The work OF the Legislature Is done
largely in the committee room. Re-
publicans ara given all Of the best com
mittee appointments Thus Republican
representative has the far better chance
to do good work. Wells Is safe on this
line
Vote for Wells.
There will be very few democratic mem
bers in the next legislature The Repub-
iican city of Barre should not be one Of
the few.
The Republican party of this city has
many men within It's ranks capable Of rep
resenttng the city far better than any
Democrat. We must send one Of them
this year in the person Of Burt II. Wells.
