PLUMIEY CANDIDATE.

His home newspaper announced last
week the candidacy of Hon. Frank Plum
ley of Mortified for the seat in Congress
now held by Hon. Kittredge Haskins.
As Mr.. Haskins' desire for reelection had
already been expressed, contest is as
sured. Thus far, no other aspirants have
been mentioned, and it looks like q
square, stand-up fight to the finish be-
tween the Mortified and Brattleboro
gentlemen.
The News article, copied elsewhere,
presents Mr.. Plumley's claims and quail
fications fairly. We believe the News is
correct when it says that it was generally
understood two years ago that Mr.. Has
kins would not seek another term. In
deed, there was no lack then of intima-
tions, if not actual assurances. to that
effect, given by Mr.. Haskins and his
friends when they feared Mr.. Plumley
would enter the field and complicate the
Haskins-Bell situation. OF this, there
can be not the slightest question. How
voters, we do not pretend to say. The
main question is, Who will best serve the
Second district? Whether Mr.. Haskins'
record during the past eight years, and
the experience he has acquired, outweigh
the conspicuous fitness of Mr.. Plumley,
and the bright promise of accomplish
ment he contains, with his superior phys
ical and, perhaps, mental vigor, and with
the certainty that Mr.. Haskins must
sometime give way to a successor-all
these are matters that will seriously en-
gage the attention of voters from now on.

TONE UP THE
STOMACH
Get Rid of the Gas,
Headaches and.
Dizziness.
A Michigan Man Tells How DIR.
Williams Pink Pills Cured
His Indigestion in the
Only Rational Way.

The symptoms of stomach trouble vary.
Some victims have ravenous appetite,
some ioathe the sight of food Often
there is feeling as OF weight on the
chest, a full feeling in the throat Some
times the gas presses on the heart ana
leads the sufferer to think he has heart
disease. Sick headache is a frequent and
distressing symptom.
Experience shows that these troubles
vanish Just as soon as the stomach n
made strong enough to digest the food.
In other words, il needs a tonic that VIII
rouse II to do the work OF changing the
food into nourishment.
A very delicate stomach requires easily
digested food, but nature never intended
that the food should be digested before II
is eaten. The stomach must be strength
ened to perform its own work and what
il needs is not food already digested, but
a tonic. The processes of digestion are
controlled by the blood and nerves. and
medical science has produced no better
digestive tonic than DIR. Williams Pink
Pills.
Mr.. A. J. Higley, whose farm Is near
Cassopolis, Mich, and whose mail ad.
dress is r. r. ID. No. !, that city, was
cured by these pills. He says;-
"After suffering for several years with
a weak stomach, it became so bad about
three years ago that / was unable to
work. could not eat without having
intense pain in my stomach and bowels.
Food would ferment in my stomach and
the gas would nearly suffocate me. Some
times / would have to yoDit. ! had sick
headaches and dizzy spells, my eyes
would become blurred and could see
black specks floating before them. My
heart palpitated and could not lie on my
left side at all, and IL did at night
when asleep il would wake me up. Ny
arms were weak and seemed TO be COM
pleteiy tired out and helpless. There were
shooting pains in my legs, which some
times were too weak TO bear me up.
.sThe doctor did not help me. so when

made up my mind TO try them. felt so
much better after taking he pills While
that bought some more and was entirely

AN OPEN LETTER
To the People Of Randolph.

10 wnon IL may concern:
OF late there has been a good deal OF
discussion in Randolph in regard to sd-
vertised medicines and their yalue-the
papers are full of them.
We want to say to every man, woman
and child in Randolph that we believe
the most valuable preparation of cod liv-
er oil-the best tonic reconstruction,
health restorer and strength creator-we
have ever sold in our store is Vinoi.
Ninol is not a patent medicine, il con-
tains no injurious drugs, but il actually
does contain all of the medicinal, cur
alive elements taken from fresh Gods iiv-
ers, without a drop OF the useless oil to
upset the stomach and retard its work,
and tonic iron added.
Vinol is recognized throughout the
world as the greatest strength creator for
old people, weak, sickly women and chill
dren, nursing mothers and after a severe
sickness.
Vinol cures hacking coughs, chronic
colds, bronchitis and all throat and lung
troubles. We ask the people of Ram
dolph to try vinol on our offer to return
money IL it fails. II. A. Leonard. Ram

A Successful vermon.er.

One of the most successful Vermonters
of the day is Gen. Charles K. Darling,
who has just resigned the position of
United States marshal for Massachusetts
to accept that of clerk of the United
States court. The salary of the former
Office is $4,000, while that of the latter is
50, 500, with fees that largely increase the
amount.
Gen. Darling is a son OF that we'll
known Vermonter, j. X. Darling, and
was born in Corinth in 1854. He was
graduated from Dartmouth in 1855 and
then entered the employ of the Fitchburg
railroad, and later the Old Colony and
Cheshire railroads. During his railroad
career he plunged into newspaper work
and later studied law, graduating from
the Boston University Law school in 1895.
Three years later he was instructor in
criminal law in Boston university. In
1887 he Joined the Sons of Veterans, and
two years later became a member of the
9Th regiment, afterward rising to be its
commander.
Gen. Darling served in the Spanish war
with distinction. He did excellent serv-
ice in Porto Rico, and was promoted to
the colonelcy of the regiment, an honor
for which he did not even have to seek.
His promotion to the rank of general is
of comparatively recent date. He had
been United States marshal for nine
years.-Burlington News.

School rrip. 10 Wa.hinoton.

A trip to Washington and a hand
shake with the president appear to have
become regular features of the higher
public education in this state.-Boston
Transcript.
And a sensible idea it is, too, it seems
to The Messenger, and one much prefer
able to the conventional graduation day
program with its stilted sophomore es-
says and furbelows. Possibly some of
the money spent by Woodworking fathers
and self-denying mothers for some of
these furbelows would go q great way
toward paying the expense of a trip to
Washington. And it would not be a
bad kind of parental discipline that en-
coursged the boys to earn the money to
pay their own way there. A visit to
Washington, the nations capital, the
seat of government, would be finishing
touch, indeed, to years of training in the
public school, and would give the young
folks an experience of travel, broadened
view of men and things that no school
book could ever picture or convey.-St.
Adams Messenger.

The opportunity given towns voting Ii
cense to call second town meeting to
determine whether the sale of liquor shall
be limited to malt beverages or net APP
parently amounts to little. 1t has been
tried few times in the state, but always
with the same result-the limitation is
special meetings this year, and each de-
feated the proposition by a larger vote
than originally given for license. The
move for limitation is usually begun by
the prohibition element-defeated on the
first trial-and this excites the license
men to extra effort to carry their action
into effect. Then some prohi bitionists,
Disguised, are willing that for year the
other fellows shall have it just as they
want it. Still others think it better for a
town to sell under the second class,
where the. liquor is mostly taken away,
than to open beer guzzling place, where
most of the disorder will hover about the
joint, demanding special police or expense
for law enforcement. Again, a second
class license brings much higher fee to
a town than beer license. All these
things conspire to make hopeless any at
tempt to limit selling by license,
once it is voted.
