with the New York government, but, as
Allen said at the Albany Court House,
"the gods Of the valleys are not the gods
of the hills"
1t is interesting to speculate on the
possible consequences of the failure OF the
Green Mountain Boys to establish their
own Commonwealth, the fourteenth
State of the Union. Certainly political
Democracy would have lost a shining
example, and New England would have
been a different New England from that
of the record. Different, too, in degree,
would have been the influence upon the
Northwest, to which tens of thousands
of Vermont emigrsnts bore in the last
century the inspiration of a town meeting
civilization.
Allan was very urgent that his cap
ture of Ticonderoga should be followed
up at once with an invasion of Canada.
Possibly a prompter movement would
have had large significance for the colo
MES. A captivity of two years and a
half was the sequel to Allen of the act
ual invasion later on under Schuyler and
Montgomery. Before that event, how
ever, Allen had done his indispensable
work for Vermont. Yet the prestige of
the man remained, despite his frank
avowals of religious views so liberal for
his time as to provoke unsparing criti-
cism. The facts that he was elected to
the Legislature from town of which he
was not a resident and that he was per-
mitted to take his seat without subscrib-
ing to the constitutional religious test
speak convincingly of clear realization
that here was citizen, eccentric and
ambitious" perhaps, but one whose USE
full qualities could not be dispensed with.
Because, as Sparks put it, ito no individ-
ual among the patriot founders is the
State of Vermont more indebted for the
basis of her free institutions and the
achievement of her independence than to
Ethan Allen" he retains with the years
his place of prominence among Yer
monters.-Boston Transcript.

New Lake Steamer.

Carpenters are employed at Shelburne
Harbor getting out timber for new lake
steamer which it is expected will go
into commission next season. The iron
plate frame, deck beams and all parts of
the steel hull and the boilers. engine and
other machinery for the motive power
will reach there from the manufacturers
early next month and the steamer will
be put together at the yards of the
Champlain transportation company at
Shelburne Harbor.
The interior wood work will be ar
ranged for later and will probably be
made up by local firms. Operations will
be continued during the winter and the
new boat will go into commission at the
opening of next season, taking the place
of the Chateaguay which in turn will
replace the Maquam as an excursion
boat. The new steamer will be slightly
larger than the Chateaugay and some
what smaller than the Vermont, and
will be patterned largely after these two
boats.

by Fannie B. Rice. a new writer of much
promise. There is also fairy tale by
Dr. Max Nordau, an unexpected contri-
button to literature. The first Install

Robert billiard will head the Keith
bill for the week of August 81. Mr.. Hill
lard will present his new playlet GAS a
Man Sows" which has never been seen
in this city and he will be assisted by
competent company of five actors, in
Guiding little June Pelton, whose picture
in character bids Keiths patrons Good
Night" every evening. The surround
ing show is an exceptional strong and
well balanced one, including the Juggl-
ing McBanns, two of the greatest club
jugglers in the varities; John D. Gilbert
comedian at large in songs and stories;
Rice and Cady, German dialect come
dians; Gallager and Barrett, in funny
vaudeville traverty, Lyric trio, pleasing
tions, Herbert Brooks, skillful card
manipulation; ALI Holt, mimetic come
dian and whistler; Mooney and Holbein,
in grotesque singing and dancing special
tiles; and the Laroses slack wire experts.
A most regrettable announcement in
regard to the entertainment the week of
August 21 is that which conveys the
intelligence that the Fadettes woman's
orche ira is to bring a long and success
full summer engagement to close. Their
program for next week will be made up
of the most popular selections they have
played this season and no doubt the
theatre will be crowded with their many
friends. The photograph will show an
entire new list of motion pictures.

A movement is said to be ON foot to
secure the enactment of law prohibit
ing the use of narrow roads by automo-
biles. The Oranges are taking the mat
ter up and it will be pushed until the
legislature meets next year. 1t is not
the intention to keep the steam and gas
olene wagons off any main highways,
but it is an easy demonstrated fact that
many of our hill roads are too narrow to
admit of the passing of machine and
horse at the same time; hence the persis-
tent protest from the jewellers on the
hills, who have to depend on their four
footed friends for transportation. All
this seems to be in line of reasonable
anti-automobile legislation. The horse
owners are tremendously in the majority
about 200 to 1 say, in Woodstock, for
instance, and they will approach the
legislature with some show of success -
Woodstock Age.
Not only will the horse owners
approach another session of the legislature
with some measure of success, as our
eastside contemporary says, but they will
approach it with some decidedly interest
ing data as to the damage wrought by
these touring motorists who display an
utter disregard for the law.

Reports from Portland, Ore, are
practically unanimous to the effect that
the Lewis and Clark Centennial EXPOSE
ton is prospecting beyond any similar
enterprise that has been undertaken in
America. The attendance for the first
two months exceeded the attendance at
the Omaha Exposition of 1898 during
corresponding period by more than
so per cent, and this despite the fact
that the population within 500 miles
of Omaha was about eight times as
large as the population within like
radius of Portland.
Several excellent reasons contribute
to this unusually good showing, One
is that the peooie of the great North
west are having their first big exposi-
ton. a thing new to them, and are
supporting it because they like to see
something out of the ordinary; Port
land being 1000 miles west of Omaha,
the nearest exposition city of the past.
Another reason for success is that the
people of the Northwest are proud of
their section of country and are DESTROYS
of showing of" to advantage, so that
the people living to the eastward may
look upon them and pronounce them
good. They believe that they have a
wonderful country, of splendid posi-
bilities, and they need more people to
help them develop their resources. TIC
make a showing of their country in an
industrial exposition is one thing, and
to bring the outsiders there and show
them the country itself is another; and
the Lewis and Clark Exposition is doing
both-killing two birds with one stone.

Peace Prospect Briahtens.

The prospects of peace are distinctly
brighter this morning. The plenipoten-
tiaries at Portsmouth are now laboring
with a seriousness and earnestness which
leave not the slightest doubt that both
are anxious to conclude a treaty.
Though the points remain to be tackled
and the plenipotentiaries of each side
outwardly speak as if unless the other
gives way, the conference will go to
pieces, the spirit of compromise is in the
air.
From an authoritative source it is now
possible to forecast with fair degree of
accuracy that the crisis will come on
next Monday. Articles seven and eight
dealing with the fate of the Chinese
Eastern railroad having been disposed of
today, there remains in addition to the
cession of Sakhalin, which was passed
over, agreement being impossible, the
question of indemnity which comes up
today as article nine, the limitation
upon Russia's seapower in the Far East,
the surrender of the informed warships,
and the grant to Japan of fishing rights

lanes. Truly we are repidly approaching
the horseless age-Toledo Blade.
While we would admit that the auto
mobile has undoubtedly come to stay and
that it is encroaching upon the privi-
leges of horse owners and drivers we are
by no means looking for the extinction
of the equine by the motor carriages.
Until the drivers of motor carriages
learn to handle their vehicles in a man
ner that will ensure a respectable degree
of safety to themselves and the occupants
of their cars the automobile craze will
never attain but the limit of fad and
the horseless age will be a long time in
arriving.
While any and all are entitled to pet
ition in this land of the free it certainly
looks to be ridiculous proposition for
the autoists of Great harrington or any
other town to petition for the exclusive
use of any highway upon the ground that
teams endanger the motor carriages and
mar the pleasure of the operators of such
vehicles. This allegation can hardly be
set up IN the specifications of the autoist
as only the driver of horse need fear
any damage. There is no doubt about
this when we know that at Bennington
this week a locomotive was thrown fron'
the track by an. automobile.

Action of the New York summer resi-
dents of Great harrington, Mass, in pc
titioning the selectmen to prohibit the
driving of horses on certain thoroughfares
between that city and Sheffield, marks
another step in the reign of the automo-
bile. The petitioners plead that the teams
endanger the automobiles and mar the
pleasure of their owners trips.
The time may soon come when the
horse will be as rare as the buffalo and
an equIne-drawn vehicle veritable curl
osity. The automobile has not only come
to stay but is rapidly encroaching on the
privileges once exclusively claimed by the
horse. The latter, who held sway over
the fashionable driveways, will be gradu-
ally driven into the by-streets, alleys and

WAY TO TREAT HAY FEVER,
No stomach Dosing. just Breathe
Hyom ei-Stops Sneezing and Smart
ing


w. H. Sheldon is recommending to
his customers as a cure for hay fever,
Hyomei.
1t is claimed for this remedy that
it stops the spasmodic paroxysms,
the sneezing, the smarting and rum
ming of the eyes and nose, and other
acute symptoms of this disease.
Many persons have been cured of
hay fever by Hyomei, and the dis
coverer of the remedy processes to be
able to prevent both the occurrence
of the annual attack and to stop the
progress of the disease, even in the
most chronic forms.
A. Hamlin, of Nestford, Mass,
writes "Hyomei cured me of hay fever
in one weeks time. | consider it a
duty to tell others who suffer from this
disease"
This endorsement is only one of
hundreds that have been received by
the proprietors of Hyomei. and w. H.
Sheldon offers to refund the money if
Hyomei does not do all that is claimed
for it, is the strongest proof that can
be given as to the confidence he has
in Hyomei's power to cure hay fever.
The complete outfit costs but Sl.00,
while extra bottles can be procured for
80 cents
