Alexander Troup is president Of the
New England Democratic Progressive
League. He has focused his optics on
Vermont. He believes he sees a
possibility here of reducing the repub-
lican plurality in September. To ac-
complish this he proposes to canvass
the state from Victory to Athens, and
to bring in unto US some three-riIg
circus oratory. 10 this we advise a
respectful listening. It is sure to
strengthen the republicanism of every
republican who hears it. It likewise
will weaken the spirit of all democrats
and cause them to think Of the other
side, and the principle advocated by
that other side. In this campaign
nothing can improve or better the re-
publican condition than to give time
and thought to the teachings Of the
democrats.

Chinese USE TINE STICKS.
Each VIII Burn Throughout a Period
CT Twelve Hours.

The Chinese have several contriv-
ances for keeping the time of day The
water clock has often been described.
but the use of burning sticks is less
familiar These are described by Colo
mel Bridges in his book, Round the
World in SIX Months"
We bought a smaT1 bundle Of time
sticks. The "ticks, each of which is
thirty-two y 4es long, are used, as
their name -Aore or less implies, for
the purpose of measuring time. For
use by day some are especially made,
while others for service by night are
particularly constructed.
Each burns during a period of twelve
hours. Of these king Alfred's can
Dies" as some of our party termed
them, we bought two and from a print
ed circular or advertisement which
was at the same time handed to US by
the man who sold them we learned
the following particulars:
The materials from which these time
measuring sticks are made are pre-
pared according to the directions of
the official or imperial astronomers or
astrologers. The duration of each
time stick is adjusted according to the
clepsydra or water clock, so that tho
time which it indicates when burning
may be regarded as correct.
Time sticks which are manufactured
to mark the hours of the day must be
lighted at day dawn, when the lines
on the palm of the hand are just WIS.,
lble, while those which are constructed
to mark the hours of the night must
be lighted at dusk, when the lines on
the palm Of the hand are not discern
lble. Each stick when burning must
be placed in a perpendicular position
It is also necessary that it should be
placed IN a room free from currents
IF air.~Youth's Companion.

DEAFNESS CANNOT BE CURED

by local applications, as they cannot reach
the diseased portion of the ear, There is
only one way to cure deafness, and that is by
constitutional remedies. Deafness is caused
by an nfiamed condition of the mucous lin
ing of the Eustachian Tube. When this tut
is inflamed you have rumbling sound or
imperfect hearing, and when it is entirely
closed. Deafness is the result, and unless the
Inflammation can be taken out and this tube
restored to it's normal condition, hearing will
be destroyed forever; nine cases out of ten
are caused by Cstarrh, which is nothing but
an infiamed condition Of the mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars for any
case of Deafness Caused by catarrh) that
cannot be cured by Halls Cstarrh Cure.

REPUBLICANS

Your vote in September for the state
ticket will determine the delegate rep
resentatior of your town in future
state, congressional and county con-
ventlons. When your vote has given
you your greatest delegate representa-
ton in these conventions. your town
has achieved more politically than
when your September vote in a presi-
Dental year has fallen off and depleted
that delegate representation. For this
reason your town should poll every re-
publican vote. Your town pride
should cause this to be done.

WHAT The PAPERS SAY.

The Boston Globe suggests, after
the arrest Of Lieut.. Governor Prouty
in Boston for 0verspeeding his auto,
that Vermont's candidate is not so
slow as he might be.-Montpelier
Slow! When the Lieutenant Gov
ernor found that somebody wanted
him, he just had to wait for the
Boston officer to catch up with him
and then ne walked right up and faced
the music, which is quite characteristic
of the Newport gentleman. Mr..
Prouty is usually on the firing line
Mortified News.
AS the campaign thus far in this
state is not very exciting a CORE
spondent for a city newspaper had to
get Gov. Proctor into politics again
last week. The correspondent laws it
all to "a prominent BrattIeboro man"
whom he alleges has recently stated
that ga still hunt is being made with
view Of electing legislature favor
able to the election of Gov. Fletcher
d. Proctor as United States senator. -

R@e:ect Efficient Legislators.
After all has been said as to the
methods for securing better results in
legislation, there is ore plan that
would surely bring efficiency. The
News has advocated it in pest years
and believes it can do no better ser
vice than to repeat it again at this
time. The u1d0ubted opportunity for
securing more efficient legislation lies
directly IN the hands Of the voters BIZ
returning TO the general assembly
from their respective towns the men
who made creditable record two
years ago. 4 new man must neces-
sarlly take considerable tine to get
acquainted with the general run Of
things and single session affords him
little more than fair chance to dem
onstrate his possible capacity as 8
legislator.
1t 1t is evident that he does possess
some ability and adaptation to the
requirements of the position, as mos
OF the legislators do, the voters owe
1t to their town and to their state Il
return the representative for a secon(
term. The usual success of the occa
slonal second termer," as shown il
his committee work and often as on
of the leaders in the house, is the bes
possible demonstration of the wisdom
OF rejecting members.
1t is evident that legislation of NOR
than ordinary Importance will b
called for this year and the hes
results can only be secured by mem
bership made up in part at least O
men who have already acquired exper
lence along legislative lines. Their
Will be enough new men to break in a
every session through unavoidable
causes, If the rule of returning a.
capable men for second and even
third term is universally adopted.
The only excuse that can b
offered by any town for tn
contin Led practice of sending a ne,
man to Montpelier at each session :;
to give somebody ''his turn" Civ
the new man his turn two years hence
and if he does fairly we'll as begi1
ner, then another term.
1t is up to the several towns of til
state to make the effort for as efficiel
Legislature as possible this yea

that the deaths have been greater.
| The supervisors recommend more Sc
cure quarters for patients in the crimi
nal wards and if necessary additional
| nurses. Fire protection at the Brattle-

is earning her living and that the con-
| fidence which the court placed in her
to live outside the institution has not
been betrayed. The supervisors speak

Six Years Strike at Rutland Ended.
At a conference in Rutland between
T. r. Patch, of the f. E. Patch Manu-
featuring Co., o. NJ. Barber, of Ben
nington, representing the company,
and P. F. McManus, representing
Protection lodge. No. 215, Internation-
al, and F. L. Mulholland. Of Toledo,
Ohio, Association of Machinists, and its
Individual members, settlement was
reached in the suits at law and in
equity brought by the company against
the union and it's Individual members.
Messrs. Patch, Barber and McManus
have filed stipulations with H.A. Har-
man, clerk of the Rutland county
court, for a dismissal of the suits, md
a strike which has been in exist zee
since 1902. causing protracted legal
! tangles, thus comes to an end. The
! terms of the settlement were not given
out but it is understood that both sides
| to the controversy are satisfied with
the arrangements made. The strike
began in May, 1902, being declared by
Protection lodge against the Patch
company and the Lincoln Iron works as
the result of difference which arose
regarding the number of hours that
should constitute a days work. Suits
at law and in equity were brought
! later by the Patch company against
Protection lodge and the individual
members thereof to recover for alleged
damages to the company's business,
resulting from the demonstration. In
1905 verdict for the company to re-
cover So, 500 and costs was returned by
a jury in county court against the lodge
and it's members. The case went to
the Vermont supreme court. which sus-
tanned the. verdict. Suit was then
brought under the Vermont Statutes
against the Individual members who
were then employed elsewhere, and
their wages were attached for the
amount of the verdict.
