Ignorant Town officials.

One cause for the dissatisfaction with the
nresent caucus law is undoubtedly the ina
bility OF a majority of the listers to give an
intelligent explanation OF the law in answer
TO the inquiries OF the taxpayers VINO ma
that Objectionable slip pasted on their tax
lists We hear Of one lister, not OF Montpel'
Ter, who told citizen, who SHE'D at the
caucus slip, that he would be compelled TO
write there the party Of his choice If per
cent OF the voters demanded it before May
18th. Many of the voters have gathered the
impression that they take oath TO the caucus
certificate as we'll as to the tax'list. 100
many of the listers take their legal counsel
from the town clerks.

No Encouragement at All.
bristol Herald

Tho St Adams Messenger says: II the
majority of the voters do not get the gov
ernor they want this year, it Will be thelr
own fault.' We can imagine the grin, not
smile, that adorned Editor Greene's face as
he wrote that sentence which was followed
a moment later by these words Every
,boso of the contest between Proctor and
Clement has been in the open from the begin
ming. indeed, the very identical situation
thai now presents itself to the voters was
anticipated as far back as four years ago.
That was the time the license plank was IN
serted in the platform. We agree with Eal'
tor Greene that Proctor was promised the
support of the machine for his good behaV'
ior'' in the 1902 convention and tne ohiy
redeeming feature connected Win lhe ma
chine is that its members fulhli their prom
;sas-wben it is for their interest to do so.
The Messenger is honest in admitting that
Proctor was selected four years ago as this
wars republican nominee for governor. The
people have had no voice in the matter as
vet Members of the legislature of 1902 and
1904 were approached in Proctor's interest
and large number pledged themselves to
support him for governor this year. Nothing
prearranged about these things. Oh, no! Inc
people select their own governors in Yer
mont, We should like to see such thing
done this year, so let's have new candidate
put up by and in the interest OF the people
The Messenger closes its article as follows:
There is at times good deal of free talk
about ring here in Vermont, but it usually
amounts to nothing more than something for
young politicians to cut their teeth on.
Are we to infer from the foregoing sentence
that someone will see that the young poll
ticians are taken care Of after the teeth
cutting period has passed Or is it an adj
mission of the fact that a ring or machine
does exist in Vermont No one knows bet
ter than the Messenger editor that Vermont
has been and is now cursed with a political
ring a nonsensical mountain rule, PERM
cious fee system, a too rapid increase OF
state expenses, poor highways, and number
of other things that retard the states
growth and prosperity. Let us have peo-
Piles candidate for governor.

special meeting last night to discuss tile adVisability of sending a contribu- ton of the department funds to San francisco to help the injured firemen Alter very warm but good natured discussion the matter came io a vote and though quite evenly divided it was decided not to take any action as a de- partment. However, it seemed to be the sentiment of many of the firemeu that a subscription list should be cir culated among the members for private contributions and that method will probably be employed.
 Several more San Francisco refugees arrived here yesterday. Among them were two young men who will prob ably be helped by the relief committee in some way, either by securing em- ployment or getting them transporta- ton to some place where they can ob- tain work and perhaps providing for immediate necessities.
 A number of citizens have also ex- pressed to the relief committee the be- lief that perhaps San Francisco was receiving the lions share Of the out side help when other towns were just now needing it more. The committee therefore decided that this morning they would wire $500 of the accumu- lated cash to the city of Santa Rosa for the benefit of the sufferers in that town
 At the meeting of the Elks on Thurs day night a telegram was ordered sent to the grand exalted ruler of the order who is now in Oakland receiving the subscriptions of the individual lodges. saying that if further help were need ed the Phoenix lodge when called upon would respond again to the extent of $500. ,,sa
 The following telegrams of acknowl- edgment were received yesterday:

 President Board of Trade, Phoenix:
 Accept our heartfelt gratitude for your message of sympathy.

SIGNS OF GROWTH
 OF PHOENIX P. 0.
One of Them is the A7peintmsnt CT
 the Sixth Carrier.

The Phoenix postoffice has beer granted an additional letter carrier and the incident for various reasons is construed as something of Q comuU- ment to the office. Generally new car- riers are added after recommendariorl- are made by some inspector v.ao visits the office and notes its necessitIes Il. this case the postmaster secured th- extra service on his own rePreseula- tion- It is understood Dy that that tE-. department has assured itself from tts past dealing with the office that no request of that kind would be made un- less it were reasonable or a necessity. This makes six carriers for the PhoeuIx office.
 Another thing that indicates some thing of the standing of the office ana it's healthy increase of business is this Heretofore it has been the custom Go put on an extra carrier during the WlIl- ter. by forming a temporary and ad- ditional route. then disCOntinuing the service in the spring This year In- stead of discOntinuing the so-caIlssf extra route it will be continued or
 made permanent. showing that it is not expected the business of the com ing summer will fall much if any be- hind the business of last winter. There will therefore be no change in the car rier routes Fred Hoover. who held the position of temporary carrier. will noE- be made a permanent carrier. It is quite likely that the seventh carrier will be needed next winter. as tne six men had all they could attend to last season.
 For the estimate year ending March 31 the income of the Phoenix postuffIce was sS5.6s3-7s as against ss1. .sT2o4 for the preceding estimate year An in- crease Of twelve and a half Der cent iu the business of the next estimate yea wIli let the Phoenix office into rh= lowest grade of first class offices
