1t is good thing for Vermont politics that
such campaign as this has taken place. The
Messenger has always believed that this state
would be better off in every way If 1t were
not politically SO one-sided. The unusual
popular interest aroused by this campaign
has led the great body of men to give more
thought to our state affairs than the rank and
Ale Of citizenship has bestowed upon them in
wears. It would be well for Vermont II every
campairn could cause a similar interest

the state on the day after election. The mar
row-minded attitude of the Burlington Free

Col Webb G. Hayes of Fremont o., Sec
ond son of President Hayes has been in
town several days this week as the guest Of
Admiral Clark, staying at the Mansion house.
Col Hayes has had life of much unusual
adventure. He was in the Spanish war, be-
ing slightly wounded at San Juan hill and
serving also in Porto Rico. He then went
to the Philippines as lieutenant colonel Of
an Ohio regiment and after some service
there was transferred to the cavalry for the
expedition to Picking to rescue the legations
at the time of the Boxer rebellion. He was
for time with the Japanese army to OBJ.
serve the military operations during the war
with Russia. Later he made an effort to
get through the Russian lines in Manchuria
but failed. He succeeded, however, in get.
ting to Port Arthur harbor on a vessel that
ran the blockade, but the Russians did not
allow him to remain there. Col Hayes is
secretary of the battle ground commission
that visited Cuba last winter, Admirals
Clark and Higginson accompanying them as
representatives of the navy. Col Hayes
and Admiral Cook were taken by Admiral
Clark on an automobile ride to West Brat
tleboro, where they visited the birthplace of
his grandfather Hayes, also his former home
in Dummerston. Thursday afternoon a
special trolley car was chartered and with
a number of Greenfield friends trip was

ENGINEER SWAIN is CRIPPLED.
VIII Probably Never Regain Use OF
His Hands.

Mrs. w. H. Swain, who called at the
Chronicle office today, tells us that
our informant was mistaken in say
ing that her husband is back on his
run as engineer, says The Dalles
Chronicle.
1t was two months last Tuesday
since the wreck at Bridal Veil, in
which he was badly burned, occur
red, and he has been out of the hos
pital two weeks. His hands are in
bad shape and it is a question as to
whether he will ever be able to rail-
road again. The right hand is par
TALLY closed and the left is so stiff
that he is unable to open it. He can
not wait on himself and up to a few
days ago he could not even light his
pipe. DIR. Mckenzie is of the opinion
that massaging will improve them so
that he will have better use of them,
but Mr.. Swain is inclined to be dis
couraged and it is not to be wondered
at when the active life he has led is
considered.

BooMafHE CENTENNIAL.


Instead of throwing cold water on
Richmond's centennial this year, a
better spirit of citizenship would be
shown if everyone did their best to
boom the celebration of the first set
tlement of this city. The observance
Of the centennial means much to
Richmond. The city will be advsr-
tised far and wide, and industries
looking for new locations will likely
be inclined to pay more Attentions to
chdeavors on Riehmond'ss part ito
ward bringing them here. Further
more, centennial week will be of
great benefit to the merchants. An
extended celebration fof this char
acter cannot failsto attract immense
throngs of people here, and the stores
of the city will reap a golden harvest.
In spite of criticisms Richmond will
continue to prepare for the celebra-
tion of the centennial of its first set
tlement; but as has been said above,
this spirit Of knocking wants to be
eliminated, and all citizens should
pull together in order to make the
celebration as successful as possible.

THE RED MEN OF INDIANA
They Are Endeavoring To Gain a

i Great Sachem Krone of this city,

that each tribe make net gain Of

gain by each tribe, it is pointed out,
will raise the total membership in the
State to $4,000.
For the six months ending Deem

a gain in membership of LIZA, max
ing the total membership 44,325. The

.Muncie, Ind Feb. 22.-Congresss-
man George w. Cromer has refused
to be. bled by the district committee
out of $3.50, as his share of the ex-
penses Of conducting a primary for
the nomination for Congressman in
the Eighth district.
There are two reasons for his re-
fusal to pay the money. First, he
has not got it, and second, if he had
it he feels that the assessment is an
outrageous one and made as part of
the scheme to keep him out Of the
running. because the district COM
mittee has announced that unless
the candidates pay up their names
will not go on the ticket.
Mr.. Stillwell has the money, fand
at once paid his assessment. IF it
had been fifty times the amount ask
ed, Mr.. lStillwell could have paid,
and still have had enough left to buy
wood for the rest of the winter. But
with Cromer it is different. He IS
practically penniless and in debt SO
deep that he will have to work q
long time to get out, and the $3.50
he arranged to borrow added that
much more to his liabilities. - =
The district machine is against
Cromer from top to bottom and he
might just as we'll put his money
down a rathole. The whole thing
looks as if it was only another part
of the scheme to keep Cromer off the
ticket by playing on his poverty.

TIAL IN NATURE.
Agitation Started That Will Make
New Law Favorable to Small
Merchants.
80 ~M-1Evys 9rsrr u !.

1t will be of interest to all farmers
on the rural routes and to the mer-
chants generally to know that an ag-.
itatlon is now being started in Wash
lngton to modify the parcel post bill
III such a way that it will not dis
-erlmlnate against the small town or
city business man and still give the
farmer the same service. The meas
'ure proposes to have the rural car
lers dellve all mail and merchandise
up to eleven. pounds to their patrons
on their respective routes. provided
the package is mailed at the. Office
from which the rural route extends.
In explanation it is stated that no
merchandise that is mailed outside
the county in which the route oper-
ates, can be delivered by the carriers
working at its destination. This
prevents the mailing of merchan-
disc by the large mailing houses in
the large cities, and will remove the
principal objection that has been
raised to the general parcels post bill
originally suggested.
For instance, the mail houses Of
Chicago can send out goods only
through Cook county. The business
houses Of Richmond likewise, under
the new plan, could sent merchandise
through the post Office. in towns in
Wayne county.
Under the old plan the bill intend
ed to charge stamp tax Of one cent
an ounce or sixteen cents a pound.
This price is said to be too hard on
the farmer, and it is accordingly
planned to make ] the uniform, tax
three cents q pound, with 40 single
package weighing over eleven pounds.
