DISCIPLINE HAS IMPROVED.
Report of Gen. Carr of the Department
of Dakota.

1.-The discipline of the troops in the COM
mand shows a marked improvement over
last year." says Brig. Gen. C. c. Carr, COM
manding the Department of Dakota, in his
annual report for 1904. received at the War
Department today. Although the strength
of the command for the present year was
but slightly less thanla year, the number
of trials. he says. for the period covered by
this years report is but $50 per cent Of the
number during the previous year. This is
probably due to the fact that the recruits"
the report continues. "of which there were
a large number in the different organiza-
lions, have become more seasoned soldiers
and more respectful Of authority. There
were forty-One convictions for assertions.
as against forty for the preceding year."
Gen. Carr commends the thoroughness
exhibited in the post school for ofiicers en-
listed men and children, and says that
these institutions are not only a great ben
eft in training the young officers In the
higher requirements of the service. but
they serve to occupy in a manner tending
to promote efficiency the time which might
otherwise be spent In gaming and drink
ing
$ The report calls attention to the annoy
ance caused by the purchase and wearing
of soldiers clothing by civilians. Tho ques-

Senator Proctor's View.

Senator Proctor yesterday said:' I'VE can
not reasonably hope for over 5000 plural
ity. There is no third party to draw votes
from Parker. and We will lose some of our
sound money democratic friends. There are
no exciting issues between the parties and
1t is very hard to get our people interested.
There are forty-fve thousand republicans
In the state and only twenty thousand DEM
ocrats, and our people know 1t. They say
the state is safe anyway and do not take
time to attend meetings and sometimes
don't vote. They would do SO IL the state
was close, SO that the vote in Vermont
would in no way indicate the vote in
close state. or one having large populistic
element. The talk Of reciprocity with Can
ada will not cut any figure In Vermont In
this election. II it is ever attempted 1t will
make Vermont solidly republican. We tried
this In "a and SO and got enough of 1t.
Canada will not enter into any reciprocity
agreement unless she gets the best Of 1T. so
1t Is all talk anyway. Vermont is an agri-
cultural state. on the Canadian border. and
our farmers never would consent to free
trade In agricultural products. which Cana
da would demand The agitation is large
ly democratic campaign movement and
the movers keep out of the agricultural
districts. / do not think the proposition
feasible In any event.
No Enthusiasm Aroused.
The democratic committee is hard at
work. Chairman Taggart of the democratic
national committee thinks that the normal
effect upon the spirits of the democracy of
the country at the beginning Of the active
period of the national campaign of a per-
ceptible reduction in the republican vote Of
Vermont, as well as of Maine. is worth
striving for. Senator Proctor. speaking of
this. said: II am glad to see this, it will
rouse the republicans and help us to get out
our vote" On the other hand. the repub-
licans are working earnestly to get out
full vote, feeling that an enthusiastic in
dorsement of President Roosevelt would
thus be indicated.
However. the Green mountain boys are
scattered over many hills and dales and
are hard to reach personally: neither side
is pleased with the outlook: no enthusiasm
has been aroused. The democrat says 1t Is
no use taking time and spending money go
ing to rally when a state Is overwhelm-
ingly republican. and the republican feels
the same way about it. Neither side has
aroused the voters to a point where they
will gather at the cross roads and talk poll
tics while the crops go to waste.

Dear Sir: Let's talk it right out before
folks; there's nothing to hide III your
business or ours; if there is, we'd better
hide ourselves.
We are in trade to make money; so
are you. We make it by saving our
customers money: so do you. Our
object, in trade, is to save your Gus
toners wood from rotting and iron and
steel and tin from rusting; yours the
same. =
We work for thousands of property
owners; you for a few. We can do some
things that you can't do; we have the
facilities. You can do some things that
we can't; you are there. Let us work
together be faithful to one-another.
We can serve our customers better by
working together and being faithful to
one-another.
Your dollar, put into our paint, will
paint more feet than in any other way
and the paint will last longer. This
saves you money, and saves your Gus
toners money. That's all there is in
our whole business.
Yours truly,
