counterfeIter Sentenced.

For making counterfeit coins in imita-
ton of United States money John d.
Salisbury was sentenced by Judge II. II.
Wheeler in Waterman & Martins office
yesterday to eight months at hard labor
in the house of correction in Rutland.
salisbury was arrested some four months
ago in Poultney, where he was then liv-
ing, and since then he has been a pris-
oner awaiting trial, so that his term OF
confinement will amount to about year,
not figuring the time off which he will
get for good behavior. On being arraign-
ed Salisbury pleaded guilty, and a plea
In his behalf was made by Judge Mer-
rill of Rutland, who said that in 1899
salisbury enlisted and went to the Phil
ippines and was an expert in the photo
graphic branch of the signal service. that
in 1900 he was critically i'll and submitted
to an operation, that at the government
hospital in San Francisco he contracted
the opium habit through doses of opium
and camphor which were prescribed and
became a physical wreck. He went to
Batavia, N, Y, coming from there to
Vermont, first to Castleton and then to
Poultney. Judge Merrill said Salisbury
never was arrested before and was hon
orably discharged from the army. Sauls-
bury said he was 30 years old, was mar
ried and had child one year old. United
States District Attorney Martin made no
statement of the case except to say that
Salisbury made only a small number Of
the spurious coins and circulated less
than S. worth of them, that one was sent
to him ana forwarded by him to the gov
eminent inspector, and that Salisbury
told the officers the whole truth and
made as little expense as possible. In
view of all the facts Judge Wheeler said
he would make the sentence light, and adj
monished Salisbury to live uprightly.
Salisbury was accompanied by Deputy
United States Marshal Chapman.

Rev. w. r. Davenport's straightforward
Common Sense View Of the Local sltua-
ton.
pov w r. Davenport OF Barre, former
" principal of Montpelier seminary ad-
dressed n no-license union meeting In the
Auditorium Sunday night which was
different from most no-license addresses
in that it embodied very little except
those things upon which both sides could
agree. A fair-slzed audience was present.
Mr. Davenport did not speak in a rabid'
emotional way. but took a straightfor-
yard common sense view Of the situa-
tion and built up a platform upon Whlch
all people can stand. the hrst point
which he emphasized was that the law
ought TO be enforced whichever way the
town voted, as a disregard for law brings
II into disrepute. He would haze pledges
secured by a systematic canvass because
Of their restraining influence.
The other planks which he put in the
platform were these The saloon is not Il
necessity; the liquor traffic is not only
no benefit but a positive injury, to the
country as whole: the tendency OF
license is to give responsibility to the
liduor traffic, making 1t easier to acquire
the drink habit; license has a tendency
TO blunt the moral sense; licensing the
liquor traffic is not in accord with the
trend of modern industrial life. The
speakers closing argument was that all
over the country the tendency was to
restrict the liquor traffic and that not un-
til Brattleboro voted no-licenSe would

He bought Devoe $97.4O and returned
$ll.6O. Saved $31.1O on the paint.
Don't know the cost of the work. BY
