Lone, J. Hall.

A worker in the vineyard Of the Lord,
J. Hall Long by name, writes us that
"by the sdvice Of some state friends am
in the speedway for chaplain of the next
honse," and intimates that q word in his
behalf would be of benefit to his candi-
dacy. No word in commendation of any
minister who is in ssthe speedway for
the position of chaplain will be uttered
by Us. Sincere and righteous may be the
motives all Of theclergymen who aspire to
the job of invoking the wisdom OF an all
wise Providence for the next Vermont
legislature, but we have no patience with
the methods of those who are actively
campaigning for the place. As word
of warning, we feel constrained to quote
the old saying that "the road to hell
is paved with good intentions. "-Brattls-

There was silence for few hours only
in the Democratic ramparts, followed by
gurgle from Haskell, denying, deiying
and impeaching Roosevelt. Under cover
Of this, either willingly or unwillingly,
Haskell got down and out from his ON
ciaI position in the Democratic campaign,
Just as Foraker had done, fact that Of
itself speaks eloquently. He threatens to
sue everybody who has "IibelIed" him.
Meanwhile Senator Foraker had fired
parting shot in which be first made q
clear case in his own beba1f--if he speaks
the truth--and then paid his respects to
Taft, whom he greeted, oh, so cordially,
only short time ago at Toledo, when all
their differences were made up. Nor did
be forget Roosevelt and Hearst.
As soon as Bryan had recovered his
wind-and it seldom leaves him for long
-he came back at Roosevelt with about
the sharpest and most incisive thing that
has yet fallen from his pen, in which he
took mp the issues Of the present and past
campaigns and sought to Guido Roose-
welt as q radical trust buster, by profess
sion and practice. He also poked the
White House occupant hard for running
Taft's canvass and campaign, and chaI-
IenRed him to deny that the Democratic
position with regard to campaign contri-
buttons was on higher level than the
Republican.
President Roosevelt must have worked
Sunday on his reply, which came Monday
morning, and in it he recounted what hil
administration had done to bust trusts
and what the Cleveland olney admins
tration had not done. He answered al
of Bryan's queries, it was noted.
Doubtless other exchanges will follow
for the public is now fully awake and in I
state where votes can be made or lost cas-
ily-a situation that the politicians viii
not neglect. Meanwhile Hearst, thu
MephistopheIes, says he has only begun

RHEUMATISM
DRIVEN FROM
The BLOOD
A Remedy Which Assists Nature
Produces a Cure Which Is
Permanent as This
Case Proves.
Every sufferer from rheumatism want,

Every sufferer from rheumatism wants
to be cured and to stay cured.
The prospect Of the return of the same
old rheumatism every year is not attrac.
tive to anybody who has gone through
one siege. Most treatments aim simply
to sskeep down" the rheumatic poisons
In the blood. The tonic treatment with
DR.. Wilkins Pink Pills has proved by
hundreds Of cures that it builds up ths
blood to a point that enables it to cast
out these poisons through the regular
channels of excretion, the bowels. kid
neys and the skin. When this is done
the rheumatism is permanently cured and
as long as the blood is kept pure and rich
the patient will be immune from attacks
of rheumatism.
Mrs. w. H. Anhurg is the wife ofs
prosperous farmer living on r. r. d. No
8, Lancaster, n. H., and about -four
miles from that city. She owes her re-
covery from rheumatism to this treatment
and her statement should interest every
sufferer.

rheumatism she says, "but / suffered
agonies from it for about two years and
for five months of that time my condi-
ton was very serious. I had severe

With the fact in mind that the rheu-
matism is in the blood. it viii readily be
seen how useless it is to try to cure it by
rubbing liniments on the skin. Ex-
ternal applications may give Temporary
relief from pain but to cure rheumatism
you must treat it through the.bIood. Dr.
Williams Pink Pills have cured more
cases Of rheumatism than any other
prescription and no sufferer should allow
any prejudice to stand in the way Of
giving these pills a thorough trial.

Montpelier Is Hungry.

With the time for the session Of the
legislature coming on apace, the general
public of Montpelier and the surrounding
smaller towns makes ready to gather in
the usual slice OF hard collateral that gem
orally floats around loose during the time
our lawmakers are exuding oratory from
their overcharged persons up at the state
house.
People have come to look at session
time IS the legitimate season of the year
in which to trim representative, senator,
doortender, clerk, anyone in fact who is
connected with the business of saying
what laws shall be put on the statute
books. In the operation of trimming,
our enlightened Vermonter does not en-
ploy a shell game or any three card monte
layout to pry the greenbacks from the
jeans Of the statesman. Oh, no, but they
have q highly refreshing manner of boost
ing the price of board and rooms up to
the top notch and keeping it there until
after the smoke Of battle has cleared away
from the statue OF Ethan Allen on the
state house steps.
Happy Is the man who can rent a room
for less than 90 week in a private fami-
", or who can get one at the hotels for
less than ga or s15 per week. In return
for this expenditure Of cash, the citizens
Of our beloved and benefcent city allow
the unsophisticated Daniel Websters to
dwell in the midst of the placid conserva-
tism and passive patience with which the
residents OF Montpelier are wont to view
the affairs of life. Therefore hasten the
day when we shall be enabled to pluck
the golden feathers from the wings on
which the lawmakers win soar into
realms of oratory. On with the dance,
let joy be Observation-Disclosures

Mr.. Editor:-
1t is surprising that an effort is made
to remove the normals. One reason that
seems to be assigned is that there is not
money to support them, to say nothing OF
patronage or outfit, and not least that the
state does not own the present buildings
and cannot remodel them rs needed.
Now as the state does not have rent to
pay, to say nothing OF repairs, would it
not be reasonable that money for their
support and advancement be given at
once and enough to satisfy q higher
standard and increase the interests OF
scholars from the high schoolsf
As to objections Of owners to have their
property improved, no sane person would
presume to consider. Take the thousands
Of dollars necessitaied by putting up new
buildings and apparatus for use and APP
ply TO the yearly demands and that il al
that would be needed to render them OPP
erative.
1t seems the first normal school OF the
state Is the one already marked for demo-
lition.
The people Of Randolph were the frst
to enter upon a reform in methods OF
teaching and have stood up 10 the work
through losses without asking assistance.
Men OF large influence lived there and
carried on the work with a will There
are few Edsons and fewer Conants. We
may not nnd their equal. They made il
possible for lesser lights to follow. Are

mand.
An experience of sixty years OF school
life convinces me that II Is far better 10
have various places to assemble children.
Too many in one building cannot b
sufficiently cared for. Each roem should
be adapted to the ability of the child.
Then raise the standard OF grade as fast
