The talk of a third term for President
Roosevelt recalls the fact that Vermont
led the way for a third term for Jefferson
through a resolution adopted by its legis-
lature and the legislatures of Rhode Is
land New York, Pennsylvania, New Jer-
sey. Maryland, Georgia and North Caro-
lima followed suit. jefferson refused to be
considered a candidate in a formal reply
to these invitations, which he made Dec.
10, 1907. Washington before him, and
Jackson afterward. also refused to accept
a nomina ton for a third term, and Grant
was refused one after he had been out of
office four years. President Mckinley, in
the beginning of his second term, made a
public statement that he would not accept
a third nomination. President Roosevelt
statement the night of his election in No
vember, 1904, that under no condition MOI
circumstances would he be a candidate
again, was sufficiently explicit and he has
never given any indication that he has
changed this expressed declaration. Sena-
tor Dillingham; and ex-senator Edmunds
are among the prominent men who have
recently expressed the opinion that there
will be no third term for Roosevelt

DENIAL OF MERGER.
President Mellen Reiterates Statement
That New Haven Road Has Not Ac-
qulred Control Of Boston G. Maine.

The statement has been widely heralded
that TO all intents and purposes the con-
troll Of the Boston & Maine railroad had
passed into the hands of the New York,
New Haven & Hartford railroad 1t is
claimed that although the New Haven as
a corporation had not acquired the Boston
& Maine its directors had secured a ma
jority OF the stock and only the details
remain to be arranged to consummate
the deal. 1t was further stated that the
New Haven intended TO furnish large
sums for the rehabilitation of the Boston
& Maine system and that $50, 600 900 a
year would be expended the next three
years in providing required power and
bridges. eliminating grade crossings, buy
ing freight cars and other equipment,
etc, and that particularly important
changes would be made in Boston.
President Mellen made at New Haven
Saturday an absolute denial of any par
ticipation in the deal and he repeated this
declaration yesterday. asserting that the
companies with which he is connected
have no stock ownership in the Boston &
Maine and that there is no occasion for
him to interest himself in that company's
affairs; that he has not done so and that
there are no negotiations in progress and
that he has no intention of calling on
President Tuttle.
Despite these statements il is generally
believed that large blocks OF stock
of the Boston & Maine have passed
into hands friendly to the New Haven
company.

The bad conditions in the local freight
yards have been taken up by the board
of trade and a meeting will be held to-
night at S o'clock to discuss the
situation and the remedy Secretary
George f. Fox wrote to General Man
ager G.. c. Jones of the Central Vermont
company asking what the road was going
to do to better conditions and the answer
to the letter was presented to the direct
ors of the board Tuesday evening. The
reply did not indicate any intention on
the part of the railroad to take immediate
steps toward relief of the congested con-
ditions here and the directors thought 1t
well to call a general meeting. It is
hoped that the shippers of freight and
receivers of freight will be present in
good numbers to express their views. II
enough of them attend the board of
trade will take the matter up, but IL
they do not take the trouble to make
their complaints where they will do some
good the board would not feel justified in
trying to compel a betterment of condi-
tions. The remedy seems to be in an ap-
peal to the state board of railroad COM
missioners. AS the bad conditions on the
West River road have just been brought
to the attention of the railroad commits
sioners it is an opportune time to ask
them to exert their authority in this
direction also.

The Vermont Fish and Game league
proposes to exhibit specimens of all the
native fish of Vermont in a large aqua
rum and birds and wild animals in an
enclosed paddock at the state fair to be
held in White River Junction Oct. 1-S. 1t is
to be hoped that the famous golden trout
of the Averil lakes in Essex county will be
shown. These fish, which are identical
with those found in lakes in high alti-
tudes in Europe, are natives of the Aver
i'll lakes, and except where they have been
transplanted, are found in only few
other bodies of water in the United States
They have been caught for years by local
residents of Averill and vicinity, but their
presence in Vermont waters was unknown
to FISH culturists or sportsmen until few
years ago, and then this discovery was
made accidentally by Fish Commissioner
Wentworth of New Hampshire. While in
Colebrook he heard of the salmon which
were being caught in Averill, and at his
request one of the fish, an eight-pounder,
was brought to him for inspection, and he
at once identified 1t as the saibling, or
golden trout, which is sometimes caught
in Sunapee lake. The cusk, fine food
fish which abounds in Willoughby lake,
would be a novelty to many people. The
cusk in appearance is a cross between a
horned pout and eel, and is caught only at
night and then with a "shiner'' for bait
