The Caucus Idea.

The Rev. DR.. w. NJ. Paxton once said,
ideas go booming through the world
louder than cannon. Thoughts are might
Ter than armies. Principles have achieved
more victories than horsemen or chart
OTIS" This is a grand and inspiring
thought, and one might dwell on its ap-
plication in different directions indefinitely
with infinite delight This is a prosaic
world after all, however, and just at this
time we must apply this thought to a
practical subject, having local bearings
The present gubernatorial canvass in
Vermont is a campaign of ideas. We
have the Ben darlington idea" 1.-THE
Hindley idea" and the caucus idea"
People may enjoy the former two more
than the latter in way, but after all the
caucus idea is one that has gone booming
through our country louder than can
non" The caucus idea has stood for re-
form in political primaries, with the aim
to prevent corruption and to make it i'm
possible for the members of one political
party to help force an Objectionable can
didate on a rival party in order to pro-
mote Its own interests. That is the first
step in good government, and it is to the
credit OF the American people that so
many Of our states have taken this step
Now the Rutland Herald does OCCASION
ally do really excellent thing, and we
are glad to give 1t the credit due it, The
esteemed Herald probably had as much
to do with starting the movement for a
caucus law as any other paper in the
state. Indeed some of its editorials on
the subject were instructive to an I'M
usual degree. We have not taken time
to see just what part it took in trying to
promote the passage of a caucus statute
in 1904, for that was an "oft year. with
the Herald. We believe the seed which
the Herald had so assiduously sown, was
destined inevitably to bear fruit, however,
and while the caucus law which is now
on the statute books is defective, as was
the Australian ballot law when passed and
even at the present time, the fact remains
that the caucus idea has made encourage
ing progress in the state.
So far as we know there is no state
having a caucus law which does not pro-
vide for registration and which does not
prevent men from voting In caucuses of
their party unless they register This is
the fundamental idea of political primary
laws. We expect TO join heartily with the
Rutland contemporary during |
the coming session of the legislature in |
necessary changes in the eau |
Gus law, that is, unless the neighbor has |
undergone a change Of heart on the need |
of such law, which is not at all likely

THE HEART CAN'T STAND RHEU.
MATIc ACID POISONING.
To Free and Correct the Blood a Uric-o
Treatment is Advised.


Treatment is Advised.
There is great danger in those sharp, shoot
ing pains through the chest around the reoion
OF the heart. 1t means that poisonous uric
and rheumatic acid are there ready to spring
and grip tightly the muscles controlling the
hearts action. Don't neglect these warnings,
they are the danger signals nature flashes to
you for help. You must neutraize and drive
these dangerous poisons from the system, or
sooner or later they will overcome you.
The only true way to cure Rheumatism is
to get at it from the inside with Uric-O. 1t
acts with marvellous swiftness upon the mus
cles, kidneys, and blood. Clears out the
sand-like deposits in the muscles, forces the
kidneys to .perfrom those duties for which
they were designed and neutralizes the acid
Your physician will admit that this Is the
only true way to cure Rheumatism perma-
nently, and should know that Uric-O is the
one remedy that will do it successfully and
permanently. IIric-O is a liquid taken in
fernally, times daily and does not contain
a drop of alcohol, opium or other dangerous
poisons. 1t is good for Rheumatism in any
form. Sciatiea, Muscular, Infammatory and
Articular Rheumatism all yield readily to
Uric-O. The store of the Brooks House
Pharmacy IS the home of Uric-O in Brattle-
boro, and II you will call on them they will
tell you OF many wonderful cures that Uric-O
has made right here in your own home
town. They sell it for 7sc and 81 the bottle
or you can obtain trial bottle by writing to
the makers OF Uric-O, the Smith Drug Co.,

NEWS IN BRIEF.
Money and supplies still Wanted In San
Francisco.

with no immediate prospect that con
ditions will be so normalized that the
community will be able TO feed and take
care of itself for several weeks, the cru
zens' committee at San Francisco MONDAY
began to plan some way to provide
against a failure of supplies. Mayor
Schmitz Informed the general committee
that 700 car loads of food and supplies
had been distributed since April 49, ana
transportation lines had information OF
only los cars now on the way. H.
said the mayor this information Is cor
rect. we will soon be worse on than we
were week ago II the information has
gone abroad through the country that we
are amply supplied, 1t is most unfortun-
ate 1t is not even known how much
money we can depend upon with whlch
to buy supplies, for you have heard from
Mr.. Phelan that part at least OF TINS
money subscribed by individuals or COM
panies I'm the East is disbursed through
private agents here While 1t is true that
contributions OF money will be very much
more to the purpose than contributions
Of supplies, the world should be notii1ed
that II the one is not available the other
will be most gratefully received"
