STATEMENT
TO THE DEMOCRATIC VOTERS OF
VERMONT.
alternates


VERMONT.
| The Vermont Branch of the Demo
cratic Progressive League of New
England, believing that Hon. Viii
liam ]. Bryan, of Nebraska, is the
strongest and most logical caudi
date for the Democratic party tc
nominate for President of the United
States, hereby calls upon all Demo
Gratis of Vermont who favor Mr.
Bryan's nomination to cooperate
with them to accomplish that re-
suit.
By his high personal character,
his patriotism, his great ability,
which has been recognized both at
home and abroad, his able advocacy
of the great Democratic principle of
equal rights for all and special
privileges for none," we have in Mr..
Bryan the ideal Democratic candi-
date.
AS a vote getter, Mr.. Bryan is not
the failure that his political oppo-
nents in and out of the party are
trying to picture him.
The whole situation is well sum-
med up in recent editorial in "The
New Haven Conn Union" when it
says that Mr.. Bryan is one million
votes stronger before the people
than any other Democrat, that if
nominated he will be elected, and
that his political enemies who wish
to destroy him, and are now resort
ing to all means, fair and unfair, to
control one-third of the delegates to
the national convention, believe with
us that if he receives the nomination
he will be elected, and the last glim-
mering hope left to the assistant Re-
publicans is to attempt to embarrass
the majority by hanging on to the
two-thirds rule, not with the hope
of accomplishing anything except to
divide and disrupt the Democratic
forces and keep the Democratic party
from going to power. We believe
that Mr.. Bryan is the choice of a
large majority of the Democrats of
Vermont as their candidate for Pres
ident. With the method of nomi-
mating candidates now in use, the
only opportunity the voter has to
express his choice is to attend his
local caucus for the election of dele
gates to state and district conven-
tions, and there register his choice
by sending to these conventions del
egates who are favorable to the can
didate he desires to see nominated.
We would therefore urge all Dem
ocrats of Vermont favorable to MIR.
Brvan's nomination to attend their
town or city caucus, and give their
support to delegates who will work
in the state and district conventions
for Mr.. Bryan's interests.

truth IN TINS from the Hard WICK va
zette: -
"a man may forget to pay his
taxes or pew rent, buy his children
shoes, order sack of flour, repay
borrowed money, go to the circus, sit
on the front steps and think, or even
go to town meeting to vote, but he
never forgets to license his dog, and
the more worthless the dog, the more
he hu1rys to do it,"
We have a great deal of respect for
the Methodist church, it's ministers
and laymen. Through that agency a
great deal of good is done, not only
to mankind but in every community
" here a church is located. II repre-
sents that which is good and strives
in many ways to lift up mankind
and improve the moral tone of the
community, 1t is a great and strong
church and exerts powerful influence
for good. Yet, in spite of all this,
we must take exceptions to itsrecent
resolution, adopted at the Conference
at Barre. condemning the work of
local op ion. BY this resolution it
denounces local option and asserts
that prohibition is better for the gen.
eral good. Now, ordinarily this
may be true, and in some communi-
ties it may work better than local
option, but wherever we have in
vestigated we have found that we
get more prohibition to the square
nch under the present law than we
'ver did under the old prohibition
aw. We believe that in the villages
where no license has been voted there |
S cleaner and healthier a mosphere,
ind that men take pride in voting no |
license because of these results, which |
ire certainly better than they have
'een in this state for half century.
% be sure, it would be better were
he entire state to vote no license as
whole; but to the minded man
his is an impossibility and it is bet
er to have what we can get than
~ to force a law that it is impos-
Ible to execute.
While this action is supposed to
epresent the Methodist church Of
ermont we are of the opinion that
Iere the resolution submit ted to the
ank and file of the~church through
ut the state that it would havecon-
derable difficulty to receive a ma
,rity vote-as no doubt MANY OF
ne people are of the same mind as
&pressed in this article.

Colonel Watterson, who has been
studying the Cuban question, in the
island, gives a discouraging view OF
the situation there. He divides the
Cubans into three classes: The
wealthy, who desire stable govern
ment and see no way of getting it
but by annexation; the politicians,
who are in politics for what they
can get out of it, and the rest of the
people who do not know what they
want but have no great interest in
stable government, The Colonel's
remedy is annexation, but that is a
remedy that many Americans would
regard as worse than the disease.
The only recourse seems to be the
present one,of occupation and educa-
ton, to be continued until the people
are ready for independence and
orderly selt-gOvernment.
The widows pension bill, by which
some 100000 is added to the
pension rolls of the land, has become
law. This measure will help out
many a poor widow and will be
hailed with JOY as means of piecing
out a hazardous living. The meas
ure provides that each widow of
soldier of the Civil, Mexican and
Indian wars, if married prior to June
81, 1890, shall be granted a pension
of $1,000 per month. The number
of Civil war widows of the class
specified, it is estimated, is about
$4,000, By the terms of the new
law, a section of the old law is re-
pealed, which bars widows having
an income of $3.50 from enjoying its
benefits. The new law let's in all
widows, no matter what their in
come.

Gov. Proctor has issued the following
Arbor Day Proclamation:
The Lake County times. [volume] (Hammond, Ind.) 1906-1933, 1908-06-12

George H. Williams, sole surviving
member of President Grants cabinet,
will, at the age of IS years, second the
nomination of w. H. Taft before the
republican convention.
Judge Williams is remarkably
well preserved man. There is no fall
ter in his voice, and it is the claim of
the friends of "Oregan's Grand Old
Man" that he is getting younger every
day. He was born in New York in
1898, and became judge of the First
Iowa district in 1S47, and a presidential
elector at large from that state in
1852.
He later became chief justice of the
Oregon country, and was chairman of
the convention which drafted the con-
stitution for the state, being active
in urging the rejection of slavery. He
was elected United States senator in
1864, and became a member of the
reconstruction committee of that body.
AS senator he was the author of the
tenure of office act which kept re-
publicans all over the country from be-
ing turney out of office by President
Johnson. He also was the author of
the military reconstruction lay, while
ten states were in condition of an
archy, Under the law chaos was con

ACTIVITY IS REsUM|NG
Normal Real Estate Mark
cts Are Expected With

Real estate men over the city are re-
porting much greater activity than at
any time since the recent financial
furry. They are having a great many
inquiries and a few sales, and it is be-
lieved there will be a normal market
in q few months.
All of the signs are that there will
be a resumption of activities in the
larger concerns after the presidential
nominations are made. The small in
dustries, such as the F. s. Betz Co.. the
w. B. Conkey Co., the Reid Murdoch
Co., the Enterprise Bed Co., and the
Champion Potato Machinery Co., have
the Champion Potato Machinery COM
been working during the dull times
and they have been the salvation of the
city.
In other cities of the region where
there were fewer of these small con-
Germs the bottom has fallen out of
things The real estate men report that
sales are confined to the cheaper lots
and that the high priced property is
not selling nearly so we'll.
There are several projects under foot
in Hammond, however, which are of
great Importance to the city, and If the
deals, which are now hanging fire, are
consummated, Hammond will start to
boom again.

]. M Hopkins. who has been in Jail
at the city hall since last Saturday,
when he was brought back from In
dianapolis by George L. Fisher of Pax
ton & Bakers store, on the charge
of carrying away mortgaged property,
is outraged at what he claims is the
great injustice that, has been done him
and promises to sue for damages be-
cause of what he terms is his unwar-
ranted posecution.
Hopkins was formerly employed at
the w. B. Conkey plant in this city,
but he lost his position and since then
has rather hard time to get along He
purchased a suit of clothes at Paxton
& Bakers and his wife also got an out
fit for herself. He claims the bill
should have been $40, while Paxton &
Baker claim that it is $98.
Mrs Hopkins went to INDIANAPOLIS to
visit relatives and soon after Mr.. Hop
kins followed. Hopkins says that a
neighbor with whom they had had
some trouble informed Paxton & Baker
that they had left town, and of course
they investigated.
Fisher was sent to Indianapolis to
look them up and he arrested Mr. Hop
KlnS ana brought him back to Ham

was having a streak of bad luck, but
that was trying to secure employment
and would then pay what he owed

Fisher would not listen to him, how
ever, and Hopkins was compelled to
end his trip and go back to Hammond.
He says that Hopkins insisted that his
wife turn over the clothes that she was
wearing and that they were taken
from his friends house while his wife
was in bed. She was compelled to bor-
row some clothes from her friends
Hopkins says 1t is true that he was
unable to keep UP some of the pay
Iments on furniture. which he had pur-
chased at the Lion Store and that II
was taken out OF the house. He says
however. that he had other furniture
which he had paid cash Tor and had
even paid his rent on the house In ad.
vance.
In spite of this he claims that he had
been in jail for several days and viii

and the store.
