BETHLEHEM,
A TOPIC FOR DISCUSSION.

The foundation is being laid for the addition to the room used by the Town clerk to make room for the new safe. The town has not appropriated any money for the safe or to build the addition to the Town hall. The buy ing of the safe is perhaps within the limits of the law requiring the select men to provide for the safe keeping of the town records. But it is a fact be- yond dispute that few selectmen would have taken the responsibility to purchase safe at an expenditure of S70O, when tire-proof vault could have been made for less than one-half of the cost of the safe, that would have had more than double the capac- ity of the safe. The question is being discussed whether the addition to the Town hall would come under the law of providing tire-proof protection for the town records as necessity, or if the town should fail to appropriate

THE SIMEON MITCHELL RESIDENCE
 BURNED.

THE SIMEON MITCHELL RESIDENCE
 BURNED.
 The Simeon Mitchell residence, which vas built about 130 years ago and re- gently burned, was owned by John M. Black. Tue house was of the most solid construction and was regarded as wonder in its day. It was last oc- cupied about 10 years ago. At that time there -.as not window glass broken, but young vandals soon broke out every window light in the house. MT Black has been persecuted by some one. A fine moving machine was rolled out of the barn and smashed up with an axe or other tool. Two hay rakes were run into the swamp. The fire was undoubtedly of incendiary or igin. If this lawlessness is to be al- lowed to go on where is it to end up? Who will be the next victim? It would seem to be the duty of the se- lectmen to take action and bring the guilty Wretches to justice. The prop CT place for people who fire buildings is in the States prison. MT Black bought the farm about 20 years ago of the Averill heirs.

Rockefeller, Morgan and Hill Interests
Would Block His Plans in West.

NEW YORK, April "a harmon
izing of powerful and recently antago-
nistic interests in the financial world
has been accomplished, the effct OF
what are termed the peace disturbing
ambitions of E. H. Hartman.
It is learned from excellent sources
that an understanding has been reach
ad bv the so-called Rockefeller inter-
ests. the Morgan interests and the Hill
interests. by which the holdings of Un-
ion Pacific stock by these men ad their
friends will be devoted as unit for
,,,rnoses of deciding all questions af-
facting not only this property but Its
re,ations to other railroads as well, and
that as a consequence of such under
standing it is probable that the pro-
nosed s1oo,Oo0.ooo issue of preferred
atcor of the Union Pacific may not be
authorized at the meeting which IS 20
ha held ON May at Salt Lake.
Although all. the men directly con-
.arn.t1 in the matter decline to talk
about it for publication or to make any
direct statement, enough has been
from various sources to war
rant the foregoing statement.
