there is real man not afraid to speak
his mind nor TO carry out his threats
regardless Of cost. Part Of the charm
of the story lies in the softer side OF
this mans character, which is sWayed

placed in growing western city,
where young civil engineer off on a
vacation happens on a peculiar land
charter and sees into the ostensibly
innocent purpose Of big railroad in
closing a canal. Ills lighting blood is

Aminicon and Brule are the names
of the two new towns in Douglas
County which formerly comprised the
territory known as the town Of Brule.
The new towns were born Saturday
when Judge Vinje Of the circuit court
granted the prayer of II petition OF
number OF the residents of the old
town requesting that a division DO
made. There was no opposition to
the change As the towns now stand,
Amnicon will embrace Rockmount,
Poplar and part of Wentworth, and
Brule will take in Brute, Maple and
the remainder of Wentworth. 1t Is
said that Poplar will be the seat OF
the town of Aminicon. AS soon ~
the division proceedings had been
gone through with, the court ar
ranged FOR the apportionment OF tho
old towns debt. 1 he debt was APP
portioned on the assessed valuation
of the property lying within bounds
of each Of the respective diVlsions.
The election OF sct Of officers IL the
next thing in line number of cam
didatea have announced themselves,
to be voted ON at the election on Apr.
3. The division of the town was
brought about by dissatisfaction that
prevailed among the residents OF that
section of the county for some years.

The Normal was badly defeated in
an informal game at the Dewey gym.
last Friday night by the Dewey Boys,
the score being IS to 20. The Dewey
boys mad things practically their own
way from the very start of the game.
The normal line up was changed dur
ing the game and the pedagogues
claimed that it was really the second
team that opposed the Dewey, after
the first five minutes of play. Capt
Cooley did not 90 into the gave at
all and Carey quit after few mix
ups. One by one the rest OF the reg
uiars were chased to the bench and
the second team finished the game
But this does not account for the
Dewey winning, for before the change
had been made the Dewey had the
lead. Carey pulled out when the
score was 10 to in favor of the
Dewey. The visitors claim that they
could have easily defeated our boys
had they desired, but rs there was
little at stake they concluded to save
their strength for the Saturday night
game. II this was the case they GER
tainly must have reserved their good
playing for another game, for our
team easily defeated them again.

More MISREPRESENTATION.

Another example of the republican
rings efforts to mislead voters in the
small towns is found in the following
paragraph:
The state highway tax of the town
of Jamaica for 1906 was $l44.4S. He1
apportionment by the state was $4,000
Her gain under the present system OF
taxation was $4,000. Mr.. Clement s
democratic platform would deprive ia
maica of this material gain. Will the
voters of Jamaica stand for it
For years Mr.. Clement has been adj
vocating the establishment of a state
system of good roads, which would
benefit the small towns more than any
thing hitherto done for their advan-
tage. The burden of the construction
of these highways is not to be borne
by the small towns but by the state,
from money saved by doing away with
the present extravaganza in state eX-
penses. The ring republicans do not re-
flute the practicability of Mr.. Glenn
ent S plan nor are they able to deny
the charge of extravaganza. They sim
ply twist a statement to meet their own
wishes.

SUMMER CATARRH.
Hot Weather Seems to Have Bad Effect
Upon Some People.

1t is generally recognized by physl
clans that many people suffer more witt
catarrh during the summer than IN the
winter. The hot, dry weather and the
change from the hot days to cool nights
seems to have bad effect upon the dis
ease.
Even after the usual methods of
treating catarrh have been unsuccess'
full, George E. Greene guarantees that
he will refund the money if Hyomei
fails to cure the disease. This seems
so fair and reasonable that it should in
duce all catarrh sufferers to take the
treatment.
In many instances Hyomei has cured
catarrh when the patient has suffered
since childhood. Quite number OF
people in Brattleboro who for years
have been unable to get a good night s
sleep on account of the disagreeable
tickling and dropping at the back of
the throat, have obtained quick relief
from few treatments of Hyomei and
the continued use has made complete
and lasting cure.
There is no stomach dosing when one
uses Hyomei. Simply breathe its medi-
Gated air through the pocket inhaler
that comes in every outfit and all germs
will be killed and the mucous MEM
brane will be healed.
The complete outfit costs $1.OO, ex-
ira bottles, SOC. Remember that if Hy-
omei does not cure, George E. Greene
will return your money.

The attempt of the Phoenix to
create false alarm among ignorant PEG
pie by it's announcement of Clement s
pledge to secure change from the
present system of representation is alb
solutely unreasonable. The effect OF
this argument, if indeed that term is
applicable, will amount to nothing
among thinking people. 1t is utterly
impossible for Mr.. Clement or anyone
else to secure an amendment to the
constitution unless the people of Yer
mont want it. He can only advocate
what is generally accepted as a princi-
pie of Justice. The change cannot be
made before 1910 and then not unless
a majority of the representatives and
two-thirds of the senate of two sue
cessive legislatures so vote and their
vote is confirmed by the people.

less interesting, and the detail into
which the commission has gone shows
that the work Of investigation was
done with care No evidences Of graft
are found in any of the departments
and the officers connected with the in
stitution are given clean bill OF
health. Some Of the commission s find
ings, however, are not as pleasing to
those who claim that affairs in YER
mont are just what they should be,
The commission finds;
That the books and accounts of the
manufacturing department were not
audited from 1890 to 1904 when the
state auditor was required by law to
do so.
That the manager and bookkeeper of
this department have never been re-
CURED to give bonds for the faithful
performance Of duty.
That the apparatus used for fire pro-
lection is not in good condition.
That the accommodations for confin.
ing prisoners at night are so inadequate
that il is necessary to use the hospital
and dormitory to their full capacity
and confne two men in a cell (seven
feet high, eight feet long and five feet
wide) in about 40 cells.
That as a whole the prisoners are
humanely treated, although punish
ment known as "the rings, which rs
ouires prisoner to stand with his arms
extended at right angles and fastened
to rings in the wall, is rcsorted to on
occasions.
That the practice OF employing
"trusties outside the institution,
about the legality of which there is
question, still prevails.
That the assistant superintendent
"'has very offensive way in dealing
with the prisoners and possesses an I'M
governable temper
That the abuse of the fee system is
responsible in large measure for the
overcrowded condition Of the institu-
ton.
That young emigrants, stranded at
junction points, are frequently SEN
fenced to the house of correction for
vagrancy and deported at the expira-
ton of their sentences. thereby causing
the emigrants the disgrace of imprison-
ment and the state needless expense.
That prisoners are frequently obliged
to serve time for costs afterward dis
allowed by the auditor.
In regard to the method of book
keeping used in the manufacturing de-
partment F. S. Pratt, expert account
ant says the books do not meet the re-
ouirements which should be imposed
upon public institutions. He also
states that the accounts are in better
shape than might be expected under
the circumstances and that their SUBJ
stantial correctness cannot be i'm
pugned.
Who is responsible for these eondi-
tions9 Is it not the political party
which for so long time has controlled
affairs in Vermont The St. Adams
Messenger says: "The evils indicated
ARE such as are plainly and
directly attributable to neglect or in
difference for which the people of the
state in general and their successive
legislatures in particular are clearly re-
sponsible. - Neglect and indifference
may have been the peoples portion
but these qualities are the direct re-
suit of continued dominance by a po-
litical machine which has grown care
less and shiftless in its old age. Flu
sions stand for political houseclean-
ing. and the need of it is becoming
more apparent every day.

THE WEEK IN THE WORLD.
Great Events and Movements Which Are

| The subcommittee Of the international
American conference on the Drago doctrine
at Rio Janeiro Tuesday agreed on a resolu'
ton even more general than the one on the
program, recommending that each American
nation at its discretion request The Hague
tribunal to study the questions of the forci'
bic collection Of public debts and pecuniary
claims OF all nature The Argentine repre-
sentative alone opposed the resolution, which
finally was agreed upon and will be signed
today. The opinion is expressed that the
resolution viii be accepted unanimously and
adopted by the conference. Later II was
announced that the Uruguayan representa-
tive had withdrawn from the Drago doctrine
agreement which resulted in slight move
ment TO throw the whole resolution out of
the program by a two-thirds vote. How
ever it was still considered probable that
the resolution would be adopted The Pan
American railway committee OF the confer
ence discussed two projects, one TO the eff
feet that the construction OF the entire road
be turned over to a private company in the
United States, and the other that each gov
eminent undertake to construct the portion
Of the road within its own territory. An
amendment, TO the report Of the committee
on the reorganization OF the bureau OF Amer

by the bureau shall be considered Official
