HE ASSAILS PRESIDENT
  Ex-Governor OdslI Describes Csm- paign as Asinile Former State Chairman Asserts That h. teTention Was Mistake LEAVESPARTY IN BAD SHAPE

NEW YORK, Nov. 14.-Renjamin B. Odell. former governor and former state chairman of his party, declared in an interview here that the Repub- lican campaign management in the light just ended was asinine and that 1t had left the party in deplorable shape.
 He said the intervention of President Roosevelt to aid the ticket headed by Charles E. Hughes was mistake and that. defeat had merely made Hearst a stronger. more formidable political fac tor than he had been before.
 What do you think of the result of the electiony he was asked.
 T would hardly call 1t satisfactory from Republican standpoint. It leaves our party in bad shape, very bad shape, with an important national campaign coming on. Tn greatly con cerned over the future The Repub- lican party isn't united as it ought to be-"
 What do you think of the manage ment of the Republican campaign"
 Tt was most asinine. There was the most asinine policy I ever knew. As result we have only elected the head of our ticket. As things stand 1t looks pretty much like Democratic victory.
 "Why, the Republicans made no campaign at all and no canvass. The bulk of the work was put on Mir. Hughes shoulders.
 My advice was never asked once. Many of my friends all over the state had the same experience.
 '-The Republicans should get in shape to win the next campaign in this state; also we must recognize the existence of those things which Hearst repre- sents and typifies and meet them in a conservative and sane way"
 "Do you think Hughes should recog- nise some of the departments In Al banyT
 "WeIl.' he replied, there is this to be said, "If the people who are in charge of the various departments In Albany would pay more attention to their business and less to politics they would do better.
 "rhat was one of my own mistakes. When l was. governor I should not have become chairman of the state committee"
 What was the effect of President Roosevelt's interest In the campaign"
 Tt was unfortunate. Such result always follows federal interference. The history of this state shows that interference by president has d. ways been followed by disastrous re- suits"
 Do you think that Hearst Is weaker or stronger since hls defeatY'
 Stronger. He made . remarkable campaign. Almost every newspaper in the state except his own opposed him. The great run he made under those demonstrates beyond a doubt that he has unusual political force. Mir. Hearst has also demon strated that he can think and. speak for himself. I do not like him any better than does any other Republican. | but this does not prevent me from recognizing hls force and ahility."

 City of BrattleborO.

Brattleboro, Vt, Nov 14-Plans for damming of the Connecticut river and making a large lake near this place has been formed in Boston, Mass, for the purpose, and 1t is ex- pected that by spring the work will be commenced.

LOOK OUT FOR THIS.
Ten Dollar Counterfeit Note That Is
 Floating About.


 Washington, Nov 1.-The United State secret service announces the discovery of new counterfeit SlO Buffalo" United States note. This counterfeit is apparently photo graph-lithographic production printed on two pieces of paper with silk fibre distributed between them. The face of the note is grayish black. The numbering. seal and large TEN are of good color and workmanship.
 The check letter and plate number do not appear in the lower right hand corner. The back of the note is dark bluish green. By itself this counterfeit Is apt to deceive, but when handled with genuine notes the marked difference in the color of the back should lead to its immediate de- tectiOu.

KARL AAU'S CASE Man Accdsed of Killing His Mother ln-LaH at Baden-D Baden
 in Cout
REMANDED FOR A WEEK

London, Nov 14.-Karl Hau, alias Stau, the professor of Roman law in George Washington university at Washington, D. O., who was arrested in this city November s, charged with the murder of his mother-in-law at Baden Baden, was further remanded for a week at the Bow street police court to-day, the papers in his case not having arrived from Germany.
 Attorney H. Wilson who was re- tained by the prisoner at the fast mo ment, said:
 ''Hau insists that he knows nothing about the murder and that he is quite innocent of the charge"
 The prisoner, who was stylishly dressed, maintained confident air, but he was much paler than when he first appeared in court, the result of his weeks incarceration.
 Constantinople, Nov 14.-Consider- able interest is manifested here in the case of Karl Hau. The prisoner who is well known locally only left Con- stantinople October 15, after a years residence here with only occasional breaks. While in Constantinople the prisoner did not claim American citi- passport, in which he was described zenship but travelled with Turkish as the legal adviser of the Turkish le- gation at Washington. He had prac- tically no relations with the American embassy here and was largely occu- pied in futile attempts to obtain con sessions and orders for American firms including an order for ! battle ship for shipbuilding company of Newport News, Va.

Our Robin.

A robin is winterin2 in the evergreens
at Valley Home Farm. He talks to us
nearly every day. If we could, under
derstand bird language he might tell
us that he did not finish his work in
time to join one Of the excursions to
the south land and that he did not wish
to make the journey alone, or perhaps
that he could not afford to pay regular
fare.
Or we might learn that he remained
behind purely in the interest of science
to prove to man and bird that robin
can winter in the cold north.
We are endeavoring to make his stay
with us as pleasant as possible, so when
feeding the domestic fowl do not forget
his portion, remembering that he is one
of-our HeavenlyF Fathers creatures, and
that the farmer, if not the world, owes
him living
We hope the experiment may prove
highly satisfactory to this sturdy little
harbinger of summer days, and in fu-
ture winters his friends may be pre-
vailed upon to stay with him.

need be very little idle time this winter.

hardly be one article apiece. Prices
fairly good-Our teacher, Mrs Gass.
man, has been on the sick list, having
to close school day or two a

stitute this week and say it was all very
good, especially in the evening

another social-A good many in this
section have agreed to raise sugar beets
next season to keep the big mill going

wick's farm this season-Mrs Elihu

roads thus far this winter, we hope it

men for highway officers who will at
tend to their duties best; so remember
town meeting day and elect the best
possible commissioner and pathmasters.
