DEs MONIES, Ia, March 23-Towa
Republicans broke all 1908 national
convention records when they elected
20 delegates here on March IS. All
Of them are under instructions to
vote and work for Secretary Taft.
This was the net result of the State
convention and seven district conven-
tons.
The endorsement OF Secretary Taft
and the adoption of a platform spe-
cIacaIly endorsing the Ohio platform
plank calling for tariff revision in a
special session of congress to be
called on the fourth of March next,
and in other features following the
lines of the Ohio platform were the
only things on which the delegates
in the State convention could unite.
They were unanimous for Taft and
the Ohio platform.
The convention was the clumina-
ton Of an active fight of several
weeks, waged for party control in
the state between followers of sena-
tor Allison and Governor Cummins.
When the test came. on resolution
ealing for the retention In ONCE of
the senior Senator, there were 672
votes for him and $40 votes against
him. This was the strength Of the
two elements.

Foreclosure Makes Stir.

II is understood that the Barton Saw

gage upon the new Catholic church and
new stone house built by the Rev. A. r.
Clermont in Newport. The bank holds
. mortgage for t1s, 200 and some interest
and there is about 900 in second and
third mortgages upon the church and
house, and about $4,000 Of unsecured
debts, held largely by members OF the
parish and business firms Of Newport.
The unpaid debt incurred in building
the church and presbytery is between
$50, 900 and $50, 900. Father Clermont is
said to have offered the bishop and do
cese the new church, the new presbytery,
the hall, and all the land which he
owned, except . small piece, which was
mortgaged for all 1t was worth, provided
the diocese would furnish gas, 500 and the
interest which had sccrued since January

Harold Sutton, the 18-yesr-old son Of
Mrs. Elijah Sutton of Burlington, was
severely burned Wednesday, Sept. 8, in
the fire that partially destroyed r. w.
Taft's automobile. The young man who
is employed at the Walker garage, where
the accident occurred, was engaged in
pouring gasolene into the tank Of the
car, when the fluid spilled and caught
fire from one of the lamps on the car
which <as lighed. The flames spread
quickly to the boys clothing and he was
ablaze in an instant. He started to run,
when Carl Livermore, who was on the
scene, took on his coat and quickly
wrapped IL around him, after which he
caught up Q blanket and rolled him in
that, effectually putting out the fire and
saving the young mans life. Sutton ran
to the offlce Of physician where his in
juries were dressed and he was removed
to bis home. Both legs and bis left arm
we're badly burned but the injuries are
not serious.
After an exciting chase lasting about
half an hour, Thomas Carroll of Rutland
was arrested Sept. 8, while hiding in .
corn field. The complaint against him Ii
assault with intent to kill and being
armed with Q dangerous weapon, the
complaint being made by Benjamin Har-
ris OF Rutland, who is employed by Eddy
Brothers, ice dealers. II 10 claimed by
Harris that on that evening, while stand
ing near the railroad tracks In the vicini-
ty of the Rutland Fire Clay works with
some companions, Carroll came up to
him, used violent language and drew .
knife without any apparent provocation.
After making this demonstration, Carroll
made himself scarce, and number OF
people Joined in q search for him. OH
Ger Orrin r. Packard was called, and he
was captured. Two bottles of intoxi-
cants were found near where Carroll was
found and it is supposed that they were
his property. Carroll was taken to the
house of correction for safe keeping and
will probably be given jury trial
I Henry q. Thomas Of Stowe, state fish
and game commissioner, is to recommend
in bis annual report to the Legislature
that the open season for killing deer
should be extended from six days to two
weeks or fifteen days. He has reached
this conclusion from the fact that there
are so many deer in Vermont at the pres
emit time. He says there are more deer
| in Vermont than in any other state in the
| Union, and believes 1t is due to the pro
lection OF the doe Deer are now 90 plen'
tiful that the claims for damages OF crops
are increasing very rapidly, and he be
Iieves they can now afford to "let down
the bars" little The extension OF the
season may not result in the killing Of
many more deer, since hunters will not all
rush into the woods at once, which is the
case where they have only six days in
which to hunt. The greater danger to life
comes in the first two or three days, be.
cause the hunters are "deer mad" and
will shoot at anything that makes
noise. Seven men were shot during thu
deer season last year, three fatally; 120s
deer were slaug legally and $500 IL
legally during the year, OF which numbe
over 1000 were killed by dogs.
