MR.. DAILY HOME.
President OF Daily Judge Company VIII
Meet Directors 70 Discuss Dividends.

John y. Daily. president Of the DAILY
Judge Mining company, and Mrs. Daily,
returned this morning fro ma trip spent
very pleasantly In California. After
visiting Los Angeles and other points
IN the southern part of the state they
went on up the coast as far as san
Francisco and came home from there.
In speaking of the Golden Gate city.
Mr.. DAILY says conditions there are
bad and the city has the appearance
OF an overgrown mining camp made "
pical by the many cheap shacks that
have been erected since the terrible dis
ester OF last April. The labor difllcul-
ties experienced In San francisco dur
Ing the past few months has done
much to retard the growth OF the
new city and In many respects the sltu-
alton there at the present time is dis
couragng
Asked regarding the coming DAILY
Judge dividend, Mr.. Daily stated that
the directors of the company would be
called together within the next few
days when the matter OF paying the
initial dividend will receive considera-
ton. While there II no doubt about
the first payment being made In jan
uary, the amount has not been de-

CHARGES SHOULD BE HEARD.

II Attorney John ID. Spsllman Of Rut-
land and those Brattleboro men who
brought the petition, charging irruglari-
ties, against Attorney General Clarke
q. Fitts, have anything against that
Official they will lose no time in having
their petition properly sworn to and
again presented to the Supreme court.
If they have nothing more than petty
spite to work out, they viii probably
try to return to private life and allow
the matter TO drop. In case the petition
in its proper form is not against present
ed to the court, citizens of Vermont
win set the case down as very trivial.
But notwithstanding, they would like to
know what foundation there was for
bringing the charges in the first place.
The attorney general has been put in
a bad light because of ii, and deserves
