the order that the palace must be re-

The men could only work with Ice

died by the score every day. BY the

finished. TO understand the full mean

remembered that the Winter palace IS
as large as Buckingham palace, Kens-

The report Of the committee Of inves-
tigation appointed by Mayor Barclay
10 examine into the accounts and ex-
penditures Of Overseer Of the Poor G.
A. Smith, made to the city council, con
firms the report of the auditors as to
the methods OF bookkeeping OF Mr..
Smith, but the report further says I'VE
believe that Mr.. Smith as overseer Of
the poor, has conducted the office with
the best intentions, honestly and at a
large expense Of personal attention"
The Office Of oyerseer Of the poor is
more or less subject to criticism, who
ever holds it, and while there may be
an honest difference of opinion as to
Mr. Smiths methods Of administration,
it should be borne in mind at all times
that what has been done by him has
been with the utmost honesty Of pur.
pose. Mr.. Smith asked for the com
mittee Of investigation and the criti-
cisms it makes Of his methods should
be given heed by him.

number Of fatalities have been So large
that she people are panic stricken. Since
the first Of January 600 persons have

deaths, seventy were due to Pneumonia
Reports from other sections Of the
country indicate a prevalence Of Pneu-

bad as in Pittsburg. this disease seems to
be epidemic almost everywhere.
Is there no way to prevent the awful

to avoid it is to put your system in shape

THE LICENSE ISSUE.

The Times has always contended that
a license local-option law was a better
temperance measure than the old pro
hibitory law which was in force 50
long III Vermont. The two years Of
license local-option law in this state has
not changed its views on that point, al
though the law as at first adopted CON
tanned many glaring defects. Some Of
these have been remedied in the amend
cd law, and it Is hoped will show bet
ter results in the year to come, The
essential feature of the law is the right
given every town and city to say an
annually whether Intoxicating liquors
shall be sold within its borders or not,
and where pnblic sentiment IS strongly
against the use Of liquors as beverage
a no vote Is effectual and to be desired.
While no license is eifectual in Ran
dolph, ii is, or has been the past year,
a failure in Mortified. The conditions
and the people Of the two places make
this difference. If the writer was a
voter in Randolph he would vote "no; z
if a voter in Mortified, he would vote
"yes." When the case comes home to

ditions existing here should be consid-
