CLEMENT AND LABOR.

y
land, the only officially endorsed
trades union newspaper in Vermont,
as to their attitude on certain ques-
tons that concern labor in this state,
the two candidates for the governor
ship. Proctor and Clement. treated the
subject each in his own way. Proctor
made no reply whatever, which is per-
haps the less surprising from the fact
that the Signal has already attacked
him iercely, and held him up as an
enemy OF the labor union. We expect
that under different conditions Proctor
would not hesitate to outline his views,
and that he will shortly do so for the
benefit OF those who are being asked
to support him. 1t is fair to the vot-
ers that this should be done. How
soon it will take place may depend on
whether be is to meet his rival in con-
vention or at the polls, But he will be
heard from, and will, we predict, place
himself squarely where good Republi-
cans can enthusiastically follow him.
To the Signals questions, Clement
made a candid, even pointed, reply.
1t is evidently no part Of bis plan to
curry favor with the labor unions at
the expense of his convictions. For
this we honor him. But he appears IN
a role that must be a disappointment
to hundreds who had Hoped that his
former hostility to labor had been so
modified that they could give him
their votes.
Clement answered NO" TO the Ques- |
ton, 'Do you favor a weekly payment |
law for corporations ?" He says he
such a bill in the House when 1
a member, on the ground that it was
class legislation, an interference with /
the right OF contract and would be a
hardship especially to the railroads Of
Vermont, which are poor and expen-
sive to maintain and operate
Clement says be is not in favor OF
a stronger law tor the liability OF
employers on account of injuries sus-
tanned by employees than the present
one. J.
lie does not favor an eight-hour day
Tor public employees He takes the
position that the law should not
prescribe a s-orter day for the public
servant than for the private servant.
Clement does not favor the creation

We do not agree with the Mortified
News as to the improperly of Gov.
Bells seeking a seat in Congress
while yet holding the governorship.
The term in Congress does not begin
for more than a year after the govern
or will have ciired from his present
Office. Cases Ike this, where the
chief executive OF state is candi-
date for either the national Senate or
House, are not at all rare. A rule
that would debar all holders OF high
Office from seeking higher Office would
work poorly, we think. As to whether
the people OF the Second district will
not consider that Gov. Bell has al
ready been honored sufficiently is
quite another question from the al
legged intraction Of political etiquet
that the News attributes to him.

EDITORIAL NOTES.

So far as newspaper support counts,
Haskins has distinct lead over Bell.
Only two papers have thus far declared
for the governor as a Congressional
candidate, while the solid northeast
corner is broken by the detection of
such papers as the Barton Monitor,
St. Johnsbury Caledonian, Lyndon
vile Journal and Newport Express.
Haskins has every paper in the dis
trict that has declared so TAR, except
Secretary Walters Republican and his
home sheet, the Hardwiek Gazette.

The Greek symposium was literally
drinking together" but before the
drinking fully began there was ban
quet, more or less elaborate, as the
wealth and taste of the host might die
tate. The guests came in their best.
Even old Socrates, Plato tells us in his
Dialogue" on the subject, was not
above taking a little extra pains when
he was invited out. Some one met him
one day in the market place, ''fresh
from the bath and sandaled," and as
the sight of the sandals was unusual
he asked him whittier he was going
that he was so fine. "To banquet al
Agathon's," he replied, "and have put
on my finery because he is fine crea
ture. What say you to going with me

MlddIetown on April the 18th aud 18th.
The Nineteenth Annual Convention
of the Delaware State Sunday School
Association, which meets in Middle
town, April 18th and 18th, promises to
be the very best in the history of the
organized work in Delaware. The
Program Committee have produced
program unexcelled. In addition to
the choice local talent secured, they
have the promise of two men of world
wide reputation as effective Sunday
School workers. One of these is Mr..
Marion Lawrence, the General Secre-
tary of the international Sunday
School Association, who, upon a pre-
vious visit to Delaware made such a
| favorable impression that those who
heard him then, will desire to hear him
again. Mr.. Lawrence is the leader of
the Sunday School work of the world
| The other is Mr.. Charles Gallaudet
| Trumbull, editor of the Sunday School
Times. 1t is very rare opportunity
that the Delaware Sunday School
workers will have to hear two such
men. The attendance promises to lie
large and enthusiastic. In addition to
the delegates from the more than three
hundred schools that are eligible to
send them, there are one hundred
State and County officers, who are ex-
officio delegates to this convention,
many of whom will be III attendance
Members of the graduating class will
also be in attendance to receive theil
diplomas, and year by year as the in
terest increases, there is an increasing
number of visitors who attend these
meetings and who are always wei
coined, so that between delegates, of
ticers, graduates, and visitors who ar,
so fortunate as to attend, the Middle
town Convention will probably be thu
largest and most enthusiastic conven
ton ever held in the State. The mu
sic is always great feature of thes
conventions, and this year the Torrey
Alexander hymns will be used. 1t wer
! worth going just to hear the Conven
q ton sing the Glory Song.

To boil meat so as to retain the juices
and soluble salts and yet cook it suf-
ficiently it should be plunged into boil
ing water and boiled rapidly for about
ten minutes. After this fast cooking
the kettle must be pushed over to the
back of the fire, where IT'S contents viii
simmer gently. This tends to coagu-
late the outer rind of the meat so that
the juices cannot escape. If meat is
treated in this manner the inside will
be found juicy and tender, but if the
meat is allowed to boil it will be found
hard and chippy, the goodness having
all boiled out of it.

rlADE FROr1 NATIVE ROOTS.
SAFE AND RELIABLE.

That the roots of many native plants,
growing wild in our American forests,
possess remarkable properties for the cure
of human maladies is well proven. Even
the untutored Indian had learned the
curative value of some of these and
taught the early settlers their uses. The
Indian never liked work so he wanted his
squaw to get well as soon as possible that
she might do the work and let him hunt.
Therefore, he dug rpapoose root for her,
for that was their great remedy for fe-
male weaknesses. DIR. Pierce uses the
same root-called Blue Cohosh-in his
cFavorite Prescription" skillfully COM
bned with other agents that make 1T
more effective than any other medicine in
curing all the various weaknesses and
painful arrangements peculiar TO women.
Many afflicted women have been saved
from the operating table and the sur
geon's knife by the timely use of Doctor
Pierce's Favorite Prescription. Tender
ness over the lower pelvic region, with
backache, spells of dizziness, faintness,
bearing down pains or distress should not
go unheeded. A course of uFavorite Pre-
scription" will work marvellous benefit
in all such cases, and generally effect a
permanent cure II persisted in for q rea-
sonable length of time. The uFavorite
Prescription is harmless agent, being
wholly prepared from native medicinal
roots, without drop of alcohol in its
make up, whereas all other medicines
put up for sale through druggists fol
woman's peculiar ailments, contain large
quantities OF spirituous liquors, which
are very harmful, especially to delicate
women. rFavorite Prescription" con
tains neither alcohol nor harmful habit
forming drugs. All its ingredients arr

THE SMALLEST ENGINE IN THE WORLD.
Built by Cyrus Chambers Of Kennett Square.
Composed OF $50 Different Parts.

1t may not be generally known, but
it is a fact, nevertheless, that the
smallest engine in the world was made
in Kenneth Square. 1t is the work OF
Cyrus Chambers, Jr., the inventor,
who was born at Bloomfield Farm"
near that borough, but now resides at
Overlook. When boy of sixteen he
constructed principally of gold and
silver, and is composed OF over one
hundred and fifty pieces. The dyam-
eter of the cylinder is one-sixteenth OF
an inch; diameter of fly wheel, five
eighths of an inch. The cylinder,
cross-head and beam are made Of gold,
the boiler of silver, and in five separ-
ate sheets. The screws which hold
the several parts together are so small
that they can scarcely be seen with the
unaided eye. The engine, boiler, stack
and plate on which the whole rests,

in existence before the time of Edward
