The facts in the ease are that the
"better farming" special train sent
into Vermont by the Boston 4 Maine
railroad was loaded with samples of
and literature pertaining to "Phos-
phate' and was very clever scheme
to advertise such products. There were
no politics but all kinds of phosphate
and unless such open attempts at adj
vertising are operated under another
guise we shall be prone to look for Ill
terror motives each time we hear of
such magnanimity upon the part of a
MISUNDERSTANDING Register.
If the phosphates were good and if
the agricultural instruction and demon
STATIONS given were truthful and con-
vincing, the farmers of Vermont surely
need not trouble themselves about s'ul-
terror motives which may appear to
have prompted the movement. No
compulsion was used in the promotion
of phosphates or better farming. 1t
is only when "ulterior motives are
tending to force upon us something
worthless, that it becomes our duty to
expose them. "By their fruits is a
good rule for the judging of better
ment schemes.

In the presence OF reporter and three witnesses
Rosenblun told the following story yesterday afternoon
with the aid of interpreter We were hired in New York

Another doubtful point is said TO
hinge about the word arbitration which
appears in the resolution giving the
water board power to act. This resolu-
tions says "that it is preferable that
said board procure by purchase or by
arbitration the contemplated Sunset
ervoir system if they can do so for
Just and fair consideration. Accord
ing TO Webster's unabridged, arbitra
tion means the hearing and determine
tion of cause between parties in con-
troversy, by person or persons chosen
by the parties. - As far as the public
knows the water board has not tried
this method.

A local merchant recently sent his
five-year-old boy to the barber shop to
get haircut, instructing the lad to
tell the tonsorial artist that he wanted
a fighting clip. After being seated in
the BARRIERS chair the child startled
the occupants of the shop by solemnly
announcing that he wanted his hair
"cut like a warrior.

Whether the water board will meet
with the expected interference when II
begins operations on the new water sys-
TEN is doubtful question just at pres
ent. Some people have supposed that
the first sign Of excavation would bring
forth injunction proceedings, but il
looks now as il this course had been
abandoned The latest attitude of Mr..
Crowcll is that the members of the wa
ter board have no legal authority from
the village to use its money in the con
struction of a system and that what
ever they do will be done on their own
personal responsibility, That is, unless
they get more binding contract from
the village they will be held individ-
ually responsible for whatever money
is spent. The Meddler ism t lawyer
enough to know how good a case Mr..
Crowell has on this point but the devel-
opments ought to be worth watching.

The Meddler does not see what pos
sible chance Governor Bell has Of Gust
Ing Congressman lIaskins from his
present position. As has been stated
a great many times, experience and ami
ity are needed 10 make representa-.
tive valuable TO his constituents, and ~
six years would give Governor Bell has
share Of the former requisite he would
still be lacking in the Understanding
to The Meddlcr's way Of thinking The
old adage about "changing horses y is
rs applicable in this ease as any. AZ
this season of the year the governor
ought to be hard at work ON his Wal.
den farm instead of trotting around
the state in the interests Of the grange,
(which is not a political organiza'
tion.
