correspondent in Kentucky estimates
the results of the action of Presbyteries
on the Articles of Agreement prior to Oc-
tober II, as follows:
Seventeen Presbyteries, representing
51,458 communicates, have approved the
Articles of Agreement; seven Presbyte-
ries, representing 1887 communicates.
have disapproved the Articles, while thir-
ty-one Presbyteries, representing 1O1,-
S21 communicates, have deferred action
until spring, leaving twenty -eight Presby-
teries, representing S3,766 communicates,
to be heard from.
1t is to be borne in mind, in reviewing
the action of Presbyteries on the Arti-
cles, that it has been the policy of those
opposing the Articles to postpone action.

discussion and the maturest thought. It

Columbia, S. C., June 19.-As the result of disclosures before the dis nensary investigation committee, Gov. Hayward yesterday authorized the attorney general to prosecute n. H. Evans, l.. w. Boykin and J. E. Twell. former members of the ols- pensary board for malfeasance Ill office. The committee adjourned yes terday and the action of the governor Immediately followed.
 The investigation of the state dls- pensary affairs has hecome hi3hly sensational. Last night 1t was tesll- fled by Lewis w. Parker, manager of A large stiil in this state, that j. Lan- ahan of Baltimore, had confessed to him that although he had pa]i a yoember of the dIspensary purchas- ing board $500, he Was unable to get any business as the D.o'n FIR law of the members in question rep resented another house. The state
 
 ment was corro5orated today by E w Bartson, a banker. It was brought or+ that the conversations with Lama han occurred at a hotel in New York.
 C c, Davis, a contractor, sWore tc- day that while building house for Evans at Sewberry, he several times saw in Evans possession large , amounts of money, a thousand dollar bill generally being on the outside Once he had seen Evans with a Beaver hat full of money in green l hacks Evans, he said, had told him that his friends had given him the money and other presents and thai these friends were liquor dealers. Al that time he said Evans was chair
 man of the purchasing board.

New Haven, Conn., June l9.--l he Knights of Columbus met early yes terday for an all day session. Sever al matters of considerable importance to the order are on the program, the flst of which will be on the question of Knight of Columbus acting as sponsor for the Paulist Fathers, an order of Catholic priests whose head .o1arters are in Washington. It is said that the very Rev. A. P. Doyle, rector of the apostolic mission house of that city will appear before the national body there today for the purpose of making an appeal to tho Knights of Columbus for their sup port. It is said that the proposition will be supported by a large mum Der of the southern delegates and al so State Deputy Leahy of St. Louis.
 The argument will be asked if the Knights of Columbus will be able to assist the Paulists materially in pro- raeating the doctrines advocated by the latter, thereby spreading the in fuence of the Catholic religion in the United States. The Paulist Fathers united in an order not many years ago for the avowed intention of doing work along the lines of Je- suit missionaries. Their work now and for some time in the future will be confined to the United States.
 By way of supporting the Paulists i- is said that the Knights of Colum- bus have considered the advsability of raisinis the sum of $200.000 in as sessments to be levied on the vari ous councils up to the year 1908. When that sum is realized, should the proposition go through, it will be placed in trust. the interest from which will be given to the Paulist Fathers for the propagation of the Catholic religion.
 William B. Deilly of Washington Is enc of the leaders of the movement for the establishment of this big sum for the Paulist Fathers.
 Another question which will be talk en tip today is that of raising fund for the San Francisco members of the order. An effort will ba made to raise $1G0,000 by ass assments on the various councils.
 One of the more important matters disposed of at the meeting yesterday was that of raising he miJknum infti- ation fee from $4 to $10. This in- crease is only the first step, it is said. toward a raise to $25 for the lowest fee at the annual convention next year or the year after.

speeding and reckless driving of auto
mobiles on that crowded thoroughfare.
Motor cars were rushing up and down
the street and darting about in all direc-
tons at velocities that even inexperi-
enced eyes could recognize as exceeding
the speed allowed by law.
Carriages and all vehicles drawn by
horses had to get out of the way as best
they could, and pedestrians who at
tempted to cross the street took their
lives in their hands. y ssmf
In front of the st. Regis Hotel IAN
automobile ran down two men linz Che
street, AMI then dashed among che PEG
pie on the sidewalk.
The driver of the machine was an in
firm old man, who should not have
been permitted to risk his life and the
lives of others by speeding a motor car
on crowded street.
The police appeared to be unimpressed
by the constant peril caused by the reck-
lessness of chauffeurs. The automobiles
were permitted to rule the street, and
no move was made to restrain the daring
motorists, who obviously took delight in
taking big risks.-[April 81, 1905.
The Register will not dwell upon this
subject further, not having space, and be-
cause it is not necessary to show that the
great majority of those who live in cities
are very seriously annoyed, and undergo
very similar risks to life and property
from automobiles, as those do who live
in the country.
AS the Argus has, in the main, written
its article in candid way, we may have
something further to say another week
on the subject referred to in its closing
paragraph.

right and'without even the asking. Mo-
right exists TO make our highways dam
gerons for the horse, doctors wagon or
human life. We're soon enough with
out legalizing calamity. No pretence
has been made that they are necessity.
Any use or obstruction even of our high
ways which eddanger life or travel even
must be removed in due time. If they
have any right to make such use OF our
highways, why the necessity of legaliz-
ing such an onslaught
1t has always been convenience for
farmers to have all ordinary shopping
and errands done by wives and daugh-
tiers, all the more lately as the difficulty
of getting help has has been greater than
ever before. The recourse is already
seriously lessened. As a whole the pho
bists take our main highways and most
travelled rural roads.
1t is kindly suggested that the towns
may grant them a special highway, of
course direct one obliging town people
to use for safety an indirect one.
The autophobist craze has been institute
ed and made popular by millionaires, who
parade through our county with mobiles,
costing many thousands of dollars.
Of course a State commissioner was
secured, who advocated no water brakes
in our roads, by building an oval road.
Our rural roads are used 80 much more
by single drivers that center path is
soon cut down, so as to carry water,
for cutting it out still more, for running
the road that is left without good water
brakes. A light long descent without
brakes suffers just as much harm as
shorter one that is more inclined. A
necessary good dump might give an au-
tophobist a suggestion as to the high
esteem with which the suffering public
regards their assumed onslaught.

AT MONTPELIER.

There can hardly be a question that
the bill or bills regulating the use of
automobiles in the State are the most
important of any before the Legislature,
but as yet no progress is reported in
regard to them. Instead, the statement
is made that the Attorney General has
been asked for his opinion, whether
the bill giving local option to the towns,
as to what roads may be used by auto
mobiles, is constitutional
This is sheer nonsense, excepting that
it has an object, and the object is to
defeat the bill. The committee con.
sidering the bill concerning railroad
crossings might as well ask the Attor-
ney-General if that bill was constitu-
tional
Such an opinion would be at the best
but an opinion of an individual with.
out authority. Only the action of the
Supreme Court can decide such a mat.
ter, and the bill under discussion is one
of altogether too much Importance to be
delayed by uncalled Tor inquiries.
Let the bill be passed. If any parties
then wish to test its constitutionality
there will be the usual opportunity, and
the only one to get an opinion that will
be authoritarian appeal to the Su.
preme Court.
This is law to protect the safety and
the lives, as well as the property rights
of the people of Vermont. 1t goes with.
out asking that we have the power to dc
this. Then let us use it. Whether the
fact that the chairman of the General
Committee, to whom this bill is referred
owns an automobile, has something tt
do with this delay; or why the bill should
be referred to this committee instead OF
to that of highways and bridges, we dc
not know; but we know that very large
majority in nearly all towns of the State
and very large majority of the people Of
the State are anxiously waiting to see
this or some similar bill passed, and VIZ
also know that their determination t.
have safe highways must ultimately
prevail.
We will hope then, that the COMMITTEE,
will renew their work and give favor
able report of the Local Option Automo
bile bill introduced by Mr.. Cady of Mid
dlebury.
