Murder or Accident?

Fred Goodroe died at Swanton Friday af.
ter having both legs cut off by Central
Vermont freight train. 1t was suspected
owing to the condition of the mans body
when found, that he had been murdered and
robbed by toughs with whom he had been
seen that day, and his lifeless body placed
upon the tracks An autopsy was ordered
and resulted in finding that death did not
result from wounds on the head received in
fight with Charles Robinson which imme-
diately preceded his death, but from the
railroad accident. Testimony at the hearing
Saturday showed that GOodroe, previous to
being struck by the train, had been at the
home of Eli Lavigne, where he had a fight
with Charles Robinson He was said to be
badly intoxicated at the time. This fight
took place about Is minutes before Goodroe
was run over and near the place where the
accident occurred. Robinson was near the
place where Goodroe was picked up and when
he saw people going to the scene he took to
the woods but has since been found and is
held on charge of assault. Goodroe was
known to have had $40 in his possession
shortly before the accident which was miss.
ing when he was picked up on the track.
No evidence was produced to show that
Goodroe was placed on the track in front
of the train. AT hearing Monday startling
evidence was brought out to the effect that a
number around there knew that Goodroe was
on the track, and that just before the engine
came along one woman who started to go to
his assistance, was held back Amos Lavigne
is also under arrest charged with perjury
during the hearing.

In Henry Bowers of Montpelier and
Richard Shiney of Rutland who were
sent to the house of correction last
month to serve their 9th and 24th
terms, respectively, as types OF large
dependent class, the state might find a
modest factor in the solution of the
question now going the rounds as to
how Mr.. Clement will build his pro-
iected state highways. If the bosoms
of these habitual offenders, whom the
state has for years been paying out
good dollars to feed, lodge, and care
for, do not thrill with joy at the pros
pect of being of use to their longtime
benefactor, they may at least. tremble
sufficiently with dread to induce the
men to break habit so expensive to
the state. In either case it will mean
money or it's equivalent for the roads.
Mr.. Clement might wisely add de-
partment of prisoners reform to his
great plan for state Improvement, with
state work for state wards as its DOM
inant feature.

Help for Criminals.

The Brighter Day is the name of a
little paper which Miss Evangeline
Booth, commander of the Salvation
Army in the United States, is issuing
as the official organ Of the Prisoners
Aid department of that organization.
The initial number, published in New
York city under date of April l, is full
of a spirit of direct personal sympathy,
helpfulness and cheer which makes
some measure of success in its noble
purpose certain.
In a letter to the Reformer Miss
Booth says she believes The Brighter
Day to be the only paper in the world
for circulation among the inmates of
prisons, reformatories, and jails only.
She adds:
Ny object in printing this little
magazine is to make it the entering
wedge of communication between these
unfortunate people and the Salvation
Army, in the hope of so surrounding
them with help and encouragement on
their liberation as to prevent, if pos
sible, their falling again into crime.
In her opening editorial Miss Booth
invites communications from prisoners
a month or two before their time ey-
pires. She says that whenever possible,
in needy cases, the army furnishes
food, clothes, and employment for re-
leased prisoners 1t has institutional
homes in nearly every important city
in the country where men can be en-
ployed and many earnest friends ready
to help the needy, irrespective of re-
Ggion, sex, or color. 1t is, however, no
part of the army's plan to help those
who can help themselves.
The aims of the Prisoners Aid de-
partment of the army of which The
Brighter Day is the organ are thus de-
fined:
To seek the permanent reformation
of the men and women behind the bars;
to endeavor to be counselor and friend

WEAK KIDNEYS MAKE WEAK
BODIES.
mon Aches and Ills of Brattle-
boro People,

AS one weak link weakens a chain, so
weak kidneys weaken the whole body
and hasten the final breaking down.
Overwork, strains, colds and other
causes injure the kidneys, and when
their activity is lessened the whole
body suffers from the excess of uric
poison circulated in the blood
Aches and pains and languor and uri-
nary ills come, and there is an ever
increasing tendency towards diabetes
and fatal Bright S disease. There is
no real help for the sufferer except kid
ney help.
Doan S Kidney Pills act directly on
the kidneys and cure every kidney ILL.,.
Brattleboro cures are the proof.
c. Endlich, painter, of 4 Hudson
street, Brattleboro, Vt, says: ~ know
Doan IS Kidney Pills are a fine remedy,
also from that of my wife. She had
been troubled for four months with a
pain through her loins and across the
kidneys She also had headaches and
when she took cold it made her back
ache worse. A friend advised the use
of Doan S Kidney Pills, and l procured
a box at F. H. Holden S drug store.
They were just the remedy she needed,
and she was soon relieved in every way
and her back was stronger and her gen
eral health improved. She still uses

Returns from the II milk samples
recently bought from Bennington milk
dealers in open market and without
previous notice, show that the milk is
above the average in quality and with
out trace of tuberculosis. Only few
suggestions as to care, etc, were con-
sidered necessary as the result OF the
analysis. Such supervision of the milk
supply of our towns and cities should
be frequently and thoroughly made,
however gratifying the results may be.

is nothing like constant watchfulness

Gain from Convicts' Labor.

comparison of the present appraisal Of
the house of correction at Rutland with the
value placed on the institution in 1898, COW
ering the period since Superintendent D. L.
Morgan held Office shows that prison labor
has been responsible for additions and i'm
provements which have added $4,000 to the
value of the property in 10 years. In 1898
the house Of correction was valued at $780,
900. In the last appraisal the value given is
$4,000. During the 10 years the state has
appropriated for the prison 100000 for new
buildings and $4,000 for new land Five hun
dred dollars of the state money has been
returned so that the difference between the
appraised value in 1898 plus the money ap.

State Congregational Advance.

John NJ, Comstock, the corresponding sec
rotary for the Congregational convention, has
completed his summary of the state statistics
Of the denomination. There are now 212
churches in the state, three new ones hav-
ing been organized during the year and one
given up--at Halifax. The increase in mem
bership is "a over 1904, divided as follows:
On confession of faith, s13; by letter, 466;
total 1879. The churches have lost during
the year 366 by death, 542 by letters to 9th.
err churches, 235 by revision of the roll;
total 1,143. The addition on confession and
the total additions are the largest for 10
years. Sunday school membership is increas.
ing, the total being 1899 or 800 over 1904.
But the membership in the young peoples
societies shows decrease of 1913. The
benevolent contributions have increased $403
to $47,75s. Home expenditures continue to
increase, the total being $241,26 or $10,-

The fact that the March commit

Rutland numbered only ~, while the
average during the last few preceding
months was from 60 to 10, indicates
that publicity has altered somewhat

LEFTY would certainly not hinder any
officer from seeking his fee in n ease
where legal oifense could be reasonably

One Of the evil effects of the statute dis
franchising delinquent taxpayers at town
meeting is seen in the practice--qute gen.
eral in many cities and towns--of buying the
votes of such delinquents by paying their
taxes for them just before the election Can
didates for office, parties that want to con-
troll or persons interested in the license vote
are always ready to square the tax bills in
return for the votes that will thereby be at
their command. It's disreputable prac.

The first published endorsement of the re-

ballot according to the requirements pre-
scribed in the statutes comes from the pen
of NJ. j. Hapgood, the sage of Peru. Mr.
Hapgood explains that the action of the judge
was prompted by the spirit of independence
which fourished in Vermont 80 years ago
and which the writer ntimates is conspic'
uously lacking in these degenerate days. Per
hans Mr.. Hapgood is right, but il "the gem

Let Well Enough Alone,

Governor Charles j. Bell made for-
NAL announcement Tuesday of his can
didacy for the republican nomination
for congressman from the second dis'
triet at the coming district convention
Kittredge Haskins of Brattleboro had
already announced himself as eandl-
date for reelection, and Frank Plum
lev of Mortified is expected to declare
at any moment his intentions in the
same direction.
Mr.. Bell has made one of the best OF
governors. He is energetic and sensi.
BILE and understands and loves his ma
tive state. But what he has been and
done in Vermont is no special recon-
mendation for the post which he seeks
at Washington. He is not well versed
in congressional ways, nor does he seem
especially well adapted to congressional
demands. Mr.. Plumley has shown great
ability in certain of his undertakings
and is. like Governor Bell, man of UNI
questionable integrity. But neither
man has Mr.. Haskins s valuable con
gressional experience and neither sur
passes him in Legislative ability
TTpon Mr.. Haskins's candidacy con-
siderable comment has been made by
the state press. The most outspoken
opposition thus far noted comes from
the Morrisville News and Citizen, an
outsider, which says:
Kittredge Haskins, who has had
GOOD turn at the office, hasn't done
ANYTHING very remarkable during that
time, and ought to give way TO some
body else; that person we think Is
Frank Plumley of Northfield.
The people of the second district VIII
wisely adopt better policy than that
suggested by this paragraph, IN decld-
ing upon the claims of such candidates
as NAV offer themselves for this I'M
portant representative Office. The posi-
ton is not a gift to be handed about
to those whom we wish to honor. we
must select a man to do certain lmpor-
tant work of ours at Washington. How
this work is done is a matter OF wide
and varied concern to our lives and IN
terests.
Nj ~ITfaskiGs has ability and expert
ence. Before even considering the
claims of others, we should ask and
answer a few questions: How has he
done our work in the past? Has he
been faithful to our interests! How
has he stood on the great congressional
questions of his time9 Has he been
mindful of the requests of his constitu-
ents and considerate in his treatment
of them? Has any reasonable criticism
of his public service been made!
If these questions can be answered
favorably by majority of the people
of the second district, and we know no
reason why they can not, change
would be most unwise. A satisfactory
servant can not be kept too long. If a
careful scrutiny of Mr.. Haskins s rec
ord in congress shows that he has
served his constituents well, let the sec
ond district retain his services, regard
less of the alurements of governors
and special international arbitrators
Let well enough alone is good, safe
rule and may be well considered both
by Governor Bell and by the district
which he seeks to represent.
