GOVERNOR HUGHES
vETOES ALLEN
PENSION BILL
To Pay New York Veterans SIS
A Month
MEASURE UNCONSTITUTIONAL
Legislature Transgressed in Passing
Two Bonding Bills at Same
Session

Albany, May Ex-Governor Hughes
announced last night that he had We
toed the Allen bill which proposed a
bond issue of 100000 to provide a
pension of Sc per month to veterans
of the civil war who served for at
least ninety days and who were enlist
ed in this state.
The legislature passed two bills,
each providing for a bond issue, the
Allen bill calling for an expenditure
of $2,000,000 in behalf of the veterans
and the Conger bill proposing a ST.
100000 fund for the improvement of
the Cayuga and Seneca canal. The
Constitution prohibits the submission
of more than one proposition inyolv-
| ing bond issue at a general election,
but the legislature passed two such
measures and placed the responsible
| ity for the veto of one of them upon
| the executive.
Governor Hughes points out in his
veto memorandum that the Allen bill
| is unconstitutional in that 1t does not
| fix any rate of annual tax, and says
that were there no other questions in
volved he would veto the measure. He
goes still further, however. and says
he does not consider it sound policy
for the state, independently and upon
its own behalf TO assume an obliga-
ton to pay pensions based simply up
on service in the armies of the United
States.
state pensions for military service
are indefensible in principle and will
breed injustice in practice" says the
governor
IF the states generally adopt the
policy of granting military pensions, in
dependently, for service in the United
States army, it will be most natural
result that the burden of future pen
sions will largely be left to fall upon
the states"

= MILK TRAIN
viii Soon Be Run to New York Over
the Chatham Division

Beginning Sunday, May 30, two milk
trains will be run ON the Rutland rail-
road. One will leave Alburgh each
day about noon arriving in this town
in the evening. From here 1t will
proceed over the Chatham division to
Chatham and thence to New York via
the Harlan railroad similar train
will leave Chatham every morning de-
livering the empty cans along the
route to Alburgh. When these two
trains are put in operation farmers
from the Canadian border and all the
intermediate stations to Chatham can
ship their supply of milk each day to
the metropolis.
This service will also inaugurate the
first through trains to be run from
the northern part of the state to New
York by the way of the Chatham div
sion. 1t has long been the hope of
many in this section that soon through
Pullman trains between Montreal and
New York would be run over this
route and thus establish Bennington
on a main railroad line. These milk
trains seem to be an advance in that
direction.

NEW TAILORING DEPARTMENT
Opening at A. X. Richie & Co.'S Store
Last Evening

The new feature of the A. X. Rit-
chic & Co, store, the ladies tailoring
department, for which preparations
have been in progress for several
weeks, was formally opened to the
public last evening and the ladies of
Bennington were given an opportunity
to attend an exhibit of dress materials
which for richness of quality and taste
in arrangement could not be surpass-
ed outside of the large establishments
in the metropolitan cities.
The larger portion of the second
floor over the eastern half of the
block mas now been given over to the
business of the new department. The
exhibition room presented unusually
pretty interior even before the sim
pie but effective decorations for the
opening were arranged. The room is
unusually well lighted from the street
| by large windows and the pleasing eff
feet was heightened by the interior
| finish. white and gold. White and
green draperies before the main en-
trance and waite and gold columns in
the main archway are features that
| carry out to completeness an exceed
ingly artistic interior.
While the ladies undoubtedly appre
ciated the beauty of the room they
were naturally more interested in the
superb collection of dress materials
displayed in a manner to show off at
the greatest advantage the richness
of color and weave. Among the ma
terials were taffetas, chiffons, silk
voiles, radium nets and others. TIE
cloths were in an assortment of col.
ors, no two alike, that afforded an eX-
cellent opportunity for harmonious
arrangement in draping.
The collection of laces and orna-
ments was even more varied than the
dress materials. There were Irish
and Baby Irish, Cluny and Russian
Cluny, Valencienne, embroidered Ba-
tiste, Princess, real and handmade la
ces of different kinds displayed in an
effective manner with the dress ma
terials In such way as to show their
worth to the greatest advantage.
The new department has been ad
ded to the store primarily for the
making of tailored suits, in the rear
of the main display room is large,
well lighted work room and another
feature is the fitting room completely
equipped, but in connection with the
suit making Mr.. Richie has underta-
ken to provide for the ladies of Ben
nington a broader opportunity in the
way of evening and party dresses.
The scope of this opportunity will be
| increased by the experience of Mrs.
Richie, who has been an importer of
Partisan and European materials and
whose knowledge of makes and styles
both in materials and trimmings, will
be of 'inestimable value.

A Good Farmer and a Poor Scribe.

Privateer, Aug. 2S-Knowing how
hard it is to decipher some hand writ
ing, 1 seldom ask d correction. but in
justice to Mr.. Joe B. Osteen I will
ask you to change the report on the
amount of fertilizers that he used toA
his cotton, to $50 pounds of fertili-
zers and Fifteen bushels" of cotton
seed per acre, instead of fifteen tons
of seed" also his corn was Tightly"
instead of highly fertilized The
fact is, it is hard to realize that he
has such crop with such a light
application of fertilizers, but when
you talk with him, and find that he
rotates every year and makes a heavy
growth of peavines which he turns
under instead Of moving, also that
he is farming for the profit instead of
the name, and that he loves his busi-
ness and profession, coupled with en-y
ergy, judgment and perseverance, you
have the secret of the whole thing.

just brought me "rattler" five feet
long, eight inches in circumference,
and has thirteen rattles. One vast

ven rattles. 1 have the two rattles,

der, and hope it will rain.

BIBLE NOT ORIGINAL.
Chicago Professor of Divinity Declares
Story of Creation and Deluge APP
peared Long Before Bible
Was Written.

Chicago, Avg. 26.-The Bible is not
original with it's supposed compilers,
according to the opinions expressed
yesterday by Prof. Gerald b. Smith,
Of the faculty of the divinity depart
ment of the University of Chicago.
1.-THE story Of creation and the deluge
appeared long before the Bible was
written" the speaker declared. Both
of these stories were traditional in
the early literature of the Babylon
ians.
1.-The theologian of today is ac-
quainted as the theologians Of former
days were not, with the reality and
vitality of non Christian religion and
in the investigation of the Old Testa-
ment religion, it has been found that
many of its elements were drived from
Israels contact with Babylon. The his
tory Of Christianity reveals the fact
that Christian beliefs have grown and
changed as Christianity has met with
the secular forces Of it's history There
are elements in every pagan religion
which every Christian is compelled to
recognize as truth
