A Worthless Daily Press

If we had an independent daily
press that was uncontrolled by the
trusts and millionaires it would fur
nish the information that everybody
is so anxious to get. If there were any
opposition press at all, it would tell the
public what the beef trust was doing,
what the railroads were getting from
the government for carrying the mails,
what combinations existed to enforce
the people to pay exorbitant prices for
coal, salt and hundred other things.

bills Of sale of American goods sold in

This Garfield business is becoming
simply ridiculous. When ordered to

The people on the Pacific coast who
are so frightened about Japanese imi-
grafton, should possess their souls in
peace. That westward the course of
empire takes its way and immigra-
ton also, has been law for ten thou
sand years. The great movements of
population have always been toward
the west ever since history began to
be written. Now that the Japanese
have full sway in that undeveloped
region Of Corea, there is not much dan
ger that they will prefer to cross 5000
miles Of sea to come eastward.

WILL BE OF INTEREST.

The spring election this year will
be of more interest than usual for
the reason that more than local
officers are to be elected. Under
the new law the election of state
and county superintendent of
schools, two supreme judges, and a
county judge will be elected at
this time. None of these nomin-
ations will be made by the primary
election method of nominations as
it is the desire of the people of this
state to keep the judiciary and the
schools as far from political infu-
ences as is possible. 1t is intended
that nominations shall be made by
the means of nomination papers
filed by the candidates.
This is the first election of school
Officers at the spring election, and
we believe that the move made
changing the time of election from
fall to spring was a wise one and
will work to the advantage of the
of the state

A GOOD CHARACTER.

"A good character, one that pleases
every ones own conscience, is a.
rare thing and valuable asset in
sthis world. A character which not
only satisfies others but which
actually pleases the owner is indeed
"a treasure, yet not many people
make any endeavor to cultivate
one. Very few people are trying
daily to improve their character by
a better code of living. Character
is distinctive quality of any kind,
strongly marked, and that peculiar
quality which impresses itself either
by nature or habit upon person
and makes itself a part of / is ex-
istence and causes his 1eput alton to
be formed by other people. No one
lis without character, but a large
number are lacking in good char
.acteristics. Good character IS
formed by good living It is not
formed by living strong life. Not
sone for show, not for personal gain
of wealth, not one merely for the
accomplishment of some designated
purpose, but by living a life that is
good; not along one line, but in all
Alnes, and one that by it's very ex-
7istence forces a good character upon
"a person. No one, who lives a dis
atinctive life, can evade character,
sbut we may all, by living good
dives, acquire good character.
A $4,000 job is better than a

The last speaker was Rev. DR.. Edward
r. Fairbanks who paid former pastor
loving tribute to both Mrs Ross and her
husband. He spoke of several character
istics OF ideal womanhood that MIS-
Ross embodied. First, the expressive
ness OF her heart, the over flow OF the soul
that seemed to we'll up from within. As
we think OF her pleasant greeting let Us
r, member how far cordially goes toward
creating a sunny atmosphere. Another
characteristic OF hers was the faculty she
possessed of being pleasant OF interest

DR.. Fairbanks paid rare tribute to
Judge Ross and said the keynote OF bis
character was a great sense OF the re-
sponsibility to God and of responsibility
for men. =,
In closing the service DR.. Barnes said
what impressed him most about Judge
Ross was the simplicity and sincerity Of
the man. Here was true and genuine
man without any ostentation; the same
everywhere and every time. His was

pany, Limited.

Word comes from Montreal of the or
SANITATION there by Henry J. Fuller OF
the Canadian Fairbanks Company,
Limited, and early this spring factory
will be erected to employ 800 hands for
the manufacture of machinery, railway
and mill supplies which have previously
been imported. Mr.. Fuller will be the
president and treasurer of the new COM
pany. Six years ago Mr.. Fuller lett the
St. Tohnsbury factory to take the manage
ment of the Montreal sales house OF The
Fairbanks Company OF York, selling
agents of the St. Johnsbury corporation.
He since established branch houses at
Toronto, Winnipeg and Vancouver and
BY his ability and knowledge of the scale
business built up large trade through
out the Dominion of Canada. The good
will and business of the New York con-
Germ has been purchased by the new COM
MANY which starts in business March 10.
The st. Johnsbury corporation may
have some arrangement with the
new concern for the manufacture Of
Fairbanks scales, or E. & 1.
Fairbanks & Company may decide to
build a factory of their own somewhere
in Canada. At any rate it is understood
that the organization of the new concern
is perfectly agreeable to both corpora
tons and it is believed that it will be
profitable to the St. Johnsbury cor
poration in the near future.
Mr.. Fuller is the only son of President
Fuller of Drury College at Springfield
Mo-, former principal OF st. Iohnsbury
Academy, and his many friends in st
Tohnsbury will congratulate him on his
well. deserved business success.

In the last Vermont Missionary the
editor of the department devoted to the

M. paid the following tribute to Mrs.
Ross.
February the twenty first the Vermont
Branch was bereft of it's first vice-presi-
dent, in the death by accident of Mrs.
Helen Daggett Ross.
If the question had come to us, who is
best prepared to enter, at once, into the
glory of the Heavenly kingdom and be-
hold the King in His beauty, we should
have answered unhesitatingly Helen
Daggett Ross, for her life as we saw it,
needed no time for special preparation.

she was a succ. ssful teacher. For num-
Der of years. previous to coming to St.
Tohnsbury, as the wife of Judge ] onathan
Ross, she had taught with marked sue
cess and efficiency in the Institute Tor the
blind in indianapolis.
Coming to St. Johnsbury eighteen
years ago, she at once entered into the
life Of the community, touching it at VI
tai points in a most helpful way. She

from a special correspondent
AT a return game OF basket ball in Fes-
tival hall Friday evening the Company
D team of St. Johnsbury found it even
more difficult to cage the ball than did
the Brattleboro Independents at st.
Tohnsbury Feb. /, and the Independents
evened matters with Company D by win
ming At to 16. Company put up one
of the cleanest games that has been seen
in Brattleboro this season, but its Efforts
at team work were fruitless because OF the
excellent blocking on the part OF the In
dependents. The centres played the best
game, Howe making his largest score
this year and Smythe connecting with
the basket FIVE times. Ellis is considered
Rrattleboro's best shot, and although he
scored six goals McGovern gave him a
run for his money. The score at the END
of the first half was 21 to s. The indie.
pendents got big lead at the start, aud
from then on the score was so one-sided
that enthusiasm died out to large ex-
tent. The crowd was the largest CT the
season. A third game between these
teams, in the state championship series,
will be played soon, and it is probable
that White River Junction will be selected
as neutral ground. The summary:
