EXECUTIVE OFrICEs,
THE BRAD6rREET COMPANY.
AT q meeting Of the Board Of Directors held ut
the Executive once Of the Company on the 9th
day OF September. 1904 the following Minute
was adopted: -...-. d, ~,
The Board of Directors of The Bradstreet Com :
pany, at this. It's nrst meeting since the sudden
death Of It's beloved President Charles Finney
Clark, desires 10 place on record its profound
sense OF the great loss which this Company
has sustained. and to express to his family
the deep personal bereavement OF all those
who have been associated with him In the
great work OF his life.
Mr. Clark was n leader OF men, with genius for
organization, an unlimited capacity for work
on broad lines and for patient attention TO
details. He was also the most modest OF men.
The name Bradstreets is known throughout
the world. but thousands Of Its patrons never
heard the name of Mr.. Clark. 1t was NO re-
gret to him that this was so. He pursued
this career. In which he achieved such bril-
liant success. because he loved tho work and
the Interesting problems II presented. and
because he had prfound convictions a. 70 itA
Importance and value to the. business world;
and during his Presidency his chief ambition.
as he himself often stated was TO perfect the
organization of the Company so that Its en-
cheney, success and prosperity would be in
dependent OF the life OF any one man. 1t Is
a consolation TO those who mourn his death
that this ambition has been attained: that
Bradstreet's will remain as an enduring monu-
ment Of his achievements. and that its great
work will be continued on the lines marked
GU, for 1t by the earnest and gentle spirit which
created and organized II.
On motion. duly seconded. the Secretary was
directed to send copy Of this Minute to the
family OF the deceased.

ers who are with him in the cause
saw that he cannot be elected as long
as the present issue is paramount and
therefore do not feel like giving him
their support. On the other hand MI
Fitts's supporters say that he is rightly
entitled to the office this year and
ought to be given the united vote OF
the republican party. The objection
raised against Mr.. Crosby is that he
is at heart a prohibitionist and might
not Judge matters connected with the
license law from the proper viewpoint,
In opposition to Mr.. Gibson is raised
the cry that he has not lived in Brat
tleboro long enough TO aspire to the
office when there are other and older
candidates in the field; and also, to
use the words of one republican, that
waterman & Martins office has had
enough political offices to last for
while
The republican caucus to choose
candidate for town representative
win be held in the latter part OF Au-
gust, and it is there that the matter
will probably be fought out.

SALE RAPIDLY INCREASING
Mi-o-na, the Dyspepsia Remedy, Has
Cured Hundreds Of George E.
Greene's Customers.

one of the greatest successes In the
sale of a medicine has been achieved
by Mi-o-na, the dyspepsia remedy.
and its sale Is increasing so rapidly
that George T.. Greene, the popular
druggist, has hard work TO keep a
stock on hand.
II Is very popular with well-known
bankers, ministers, lawyers and 9TH
ers whose business or profession
keeps them closely confined, while
those who have brought on indigestion
through irregular eating, worry or
other causes, have found a cure IN
this reliable remedy.
Mi-o-na is in the form of small tab
let's and is sold In a metal box espec'
tally designed for convenience In car
rying the medicine IN the pocket OF
purse. 1t is pleasant to take; cos's
but so c., gives quick relief and makes
lasting cures.
This remedy has been so uniformly
successful and made so many remarh-
able cures that George f.. Greene wiz
in future sell Mi-o-na under posi-
tive guarantee to refund the money
if II should not cure. No other dys-
nensia medicine ever had sarge
enough percentage of cure so that IL
could be sold in this manner, u
guarantee like this speaks Voiuiiies
for the merit of the remedy.
There is no time like the present 70

have announced ter intention OF
making a fight 70 the office, while
Ernest w. Gibson as stated that he
will probably be q candidate which
means. according I his friends, that
he is out for the plce as much as the
other two. The dmocrats will also
