William Gammell.

Following a musical selection by the
band William Gammell. said:
"Col. Goddard goes into this campaign
saying that If he cannot go to the United
States senate with honor he will stay at
home with honor. As for the other side,
they know they cannot secure the votes
OF majority OF the people, but they hope
to secure the votes OF majority of the
legislature, representing the minority OF
the people, and they hope to do so by the
skilful use OF money in the country towns.
and make this statement on the basis of
my knowledge of the last election with
out the slightest fear OF any possible In
telligent contradiction.
"As for the other side. they say things
always have been so and always will be
so. as long as the present apportionment
OF the legislature remains. That brings us
TO another matter much more important
and far-reaching than the personality of
the senator and that Is the question of
the self-government OF Rhode Island.
ITO my mind 1t is just absurd for the
great city of Providence TO have only one
representative in the Rhode Island senate
as IL would be for the great city OF New
York TO have only one representative in
the upper house at Albany instead OF the
q senators that represent her there, just
as absurd as for the great city OF Boston
to have only one representative I'm the
upper house OF the Massachusetts legis-
lature instead OF the representation by
districts which there prevails.
I'm those and other sister states the
reforms which we have asked for have
been brought about by Republicans and
as Republican party measures. When we
have asked for the same things for Rhode
Island the so-called Republicans I'm this
state have told us time and again that IT
was nothing but a Democratic idea.
'As far as / can see there Is only one
course TO pursue, and that is TO vote for
those candidates for the legislature who
under the leadership of Robert III. l. God
dard. James III. Higgins. Rathbone Gard
ner and others will take the first steps
toward giving Rhode Island a government
by the people, OF the people and for the

Many farmers do not understand
that production Of large crops OF ap-
pies. pears and peaches Is heavy
draft on the vitality of the trees,
and IL nothing is done TO increase
the fertility of the soil the trees
must decline and finally die. Any
one who has grown fruit for some
length Of time must have observed
this.
The regular cultivation OF the soil
during the first hall OF the growing
season viii undoubtedly Do benefs-
cial. but this II allowable only on
Rr.~nd that Il level. or nearly %.
and even then viii in time cease 70
be efficacious. There are two ways
TO keep up the fertility: First, SOW
ing crimson clover, cowpeas or
some cover crop at the last season; !;
second, applying stable manure.
The latter is what may be done
now, and there is nothing better.
Anyone who has plenty of stable
manure can keep his orchard in
good condition. 1t may be hauled
right from the stable or the cowshed
and spread on the surface of the
ground, not closely around the
trunks OF the trees, where there are
few roots, but out 10 feet or more
under the branches.
IL is q good plan in such cases to
make light applications, going over
the ground several times at inter-
walls of i've or six weeks. This
avoids the heating which takes place
when much is applied at one time,
and the consequent escape of am
mOnia, one of the best elements in
stable manure, and allows the rains
to carry down the soluduble por-
tions to the roots. This involves
more labor, of course, but IL will
pay.

In sad but loving remembrance.
OF my darling sister NJ. Bessie
Raley (nee) Elf who departed this
life, January 13, 1907.
1t is just five months ago TODAY
Since her dear spirit fled,
How sudden was the summonst.
when word came, she was dead.
| miss her coming footsteps,
miss her every ywhere,
Home IL not what it used to be
Since my sister is not here.
When you ask me do miss her,
Yes. IL fills my heart with pain,
But her spirit softly whispers,
In heaven well NEE. again.
As the evening sun is setting,
Oftimes as sit alone,
In my heart there comes a feeling,
That my sister must come home.
Peaceful be your silent slumber,
Peaceful IN your grave so low;
You no more will Join our number.
lou no more our sOrrOws know.
icI again nope 10 meet you,
When the days oil life are fed,
And with JOY in heaven to greet you,
Where no farewell tears are shed,
Thou art gone but not forgotten,
Still l miss you more and more,
Yet to earth / would not recall you
From that bright, eternal shore.
She will not be forgotten;
Never shall her memory fade,
Sweetest thoughts shall ever linger,
Round the grave when she was laid.
She has passed from us forever,
Entered though the pearly gates
But some day we will join her,
IL we trust in God and wait.
We cannot tell who next may fall
Beneath the Christening rod,
One must be first, but let US all,
Prepare to meet our God.
Farewell dear sister, may your slumber
Be as gentle as your love,
And when God calls US homeward
May we meet in heaven above.

THE ROAD QUESTION.

interest, several articles in the col
umns ef the BEACON concerning the
road question, and think IL well TO
offer few suggestions which, how
ever humble they may be. hope
will be adjudged OF some worth to
the community.
Our roads, as we all know, are in
very deplOrable condition. Icould
mention many holes that are danger
Gus. in every sense OF the word, and
it does seem to me out Of place 10
make complaint 70 the County Com
n.....caoss-ssout such places. esps-
cially since we have road superyi-
sors who seem 10 wait until some
damage is done to horse or a vehi-
Gle before repairing is begun.
III we are to have good roads, ne
cessarily they must be attended TO,
and / know of no other direct or
approved means to do this than to
give the work to the farmers.
What | propose to do is this -
Every landowner in the county has
more or less Of public road running
through or around his place. In
stead of appointing Supervisors to
look after and repair our public
highways, give this right to the
farmers. Pay the farmers in exact
proportion TO what our Supervisors
get today and l venture to say that
we will have better roads. There
would be rivalry between these road
members, WI o would, in every case.
try TO make better road than his
neighbor. One settled fact about
the matter would be that the farm
ers would know when and where
10 fix the roads. The farmers inva-
riably possess better facilities for
repairing roads and, consequently,
could do their work with much more
convenience and economy.
What | suggest abeut repairing
holes, is to fill them With medium
size stones sufficient to make a solid
foundation, and then use gravel in
good quantities and feel safe in
saying that these depressions will
be permanently mended.
AS to Strengthening the roads,
think that proposition entirely out
OF the question. Give us good roads
and we will adjust that matter, W hen
we shall have been assured perfect
safety over the public transit.
Another point, | wish TO call at
tention to is; One OF our highly
respected citizens suggested that
liquor dealers be compelled TO pay
a higher license and let this money
be spent for the benefit of the pub
lie roads. Now, who will dare say
that those named, who are far in the
minority, do not pay their just dues,
toward defraying the county ex-
penses in proportion to the rest of
our law abiding citizens? Gentle
meu, if you consider the selling of
intoxicants a great wrong, let US
have local option, but do not rec
commend an exhorbitant measure
that will fall on a few.
Gentlemen, these are my consci-
entious sentiments and whether
they are deserving merit or not
don I care, but | certainly am anx-
ious to see the right thing done.

Mental Arithmetic.

A young lady is entertaining g

away last winter, and who is making
his first visit TO her home. There
are two walks they may take in the
evening. One is along q well-lightcd
promenade. the other through o
vine-embowered lane. Ittakes forty
minutes to walk at an ordinary pace
along the well-lighted promenade.
1t was up 10 her to suggest which
walk they should take Which. did he
take. and did he have a ring in his
pocket How did she guess il?
