THE coon AND THE BAD SIDE.


Although there was an unsavory side
to the political career Of General Will
liam Ware Dudley, that vermonter who
died in Washington, D. G. on Wednes
day, there was another side to his life,
which will turn the balance Of human
Judgment Of him in his favor, when both
are calmly considered. General Dudley's
connection with doings in the state Of
Indiana, during the election Of Benjamin
Harrison as president Of the United
States, in which he publicly boosted
OF improper use Of funds as treasurer
Of the Republican national committee,
brought him into great disfavor, not
only with President Harrison, but with
his countrymen as we'll But il was a
day Of loose political methods. and Cen
eral Dudley only went further than the
Others and was not afraid to tell about
it afterwards But even those venal
times .could not condone his acts. and
for a time his military record ii the
Civil war was overshadowed Neverthe-
less, history viii give him credit for
being brave soldier and a sturdy sup
porter Of the cause Of the Union He
served with distinction in fifteen bsttlss,
eliminating IN the battle 81 Gettysburg
in which lie lost his right leg. It Is
extremely unfortunate, however. that 50
good a military record has to be tinged
with the political episode Of President
Harrison's election.

Surely the Vermont Humane society's
complaint Of the lack Of interest in the
work Of the organization cannot be laid
to The fact that there is no need for the
work throughout Vermont. 1t is more
because Of the lack Of information about

HORSE CASE IN COURT.
Many Implications Arise from Keep
lnr N Ware and Colt.

The cese Of Annie Auclalr versus Fred
Bushev was taken MP In thittendeh
county court Saturday morning. This -
an action in sssumpsit to recover for about
one years keeping of a mare and colt.
at the rate OF 81 per week. The mare and
colt are alleged 10 belong to the plaintin,
who is resident Of Hinesburgh.
In the spring Of 1917 Mr., Bushey. then
residing in Sheburne. sold Mrs Auclair
the mare and colt for $40. Mrs. Auclnir
claimed that she soon found that the
mare would not work. She also claimed
that Mr.. Bushev had agreed to take the
animals back in that event at the pur-
chase price. She then delivered them to
him by turning them out In pasture
which Mr.. Bushey had rented of her.
II IL lust about here that the case
begins to look like skein Of yarn that
the cat has had for an hour or 80. for
when the season was over Mrs. Auclair
took up the animals from the pasture
and In January. 1905 sued Mr.. Bushey for
the price Of the animals and their keep
ing 20 that date At the September term
~ county court n verdict was given for
the plaintiff to recover sl45 purchase
price and keeping.
The plot continued to thicken Mr.
Bushev paid the Judgment and demanded
ths marc and coli. They were refused
until the keeping for the time since the
suit had been brought should be paid.
Last December Mrs Auclsir brought suit
against Bushey for this bill Of keeping
and attached the mare and colt which
were still in her possession. Mr.. Bushey
Immediately replevined them from the
officer making the attachment and later
disposed Of them as his own.
The mare and colt have passed from
the scene but the legal proceedings still

that he and n. s. Peck might appear for

appear for the defendant, and the trial
went on.

THREE BAD ROADS.


State Highway Commissioner G. w.
Gates of Franklin. in conversation With
Free Press man Friday. said the
roads leading into Burlington had been
In the worst condition of any main high
ways in the State and that many COM
plants had been sent into him IN regard
to them but that they were now in much
better shape. He spoke especially in
regard to the Shelburne road. which is al
ways in a bad condition In the spring
A total of 5000 will have been expended
on il by the end Of season. This money
is derived from the State tax, the auto
mobile tax and by private subscription.
He thought that the road would be In
good condition soon. Tho worst problem
TO face in this vicinity is the Wiliston
road. Although much can be done with It
now hat the heavy travel Is past. the
road will not be in the best Of condition
until another year. The road to Fort
Ethan Allen is already being put into
shape and with the 5000 which is at
the disposal Of the commission much can
u" done.
Mr.. Gates spoke especially In regard
to the automobile tax which is doing no
end of good. He said that this county
was receiving a good amount ~ this and

Mr.. Bordo became Indebted to Mr.

the remainder in stone or money. He
said that he was willing 10 pay it at any
time when he could. though for consider
able period he was prevented from doing
so by trustee process which was served
on him. Max l.. Powell. the attorney 70,
the plaintiff. set up the claim that Mr.

fore the institution of the rrusto, suit and
that after the bringing Of that suit a
settlement could have been made 10y

OUTLOOK FOR SEPTEMBER FROSTs
(From the New York Herald)

Although summer appears to he quite
western and northern States there is
little reason to anticipate any early and
widespread visitation of killing frosts in
the principal corn growing States On
Saturday cold area Of high barometric
pressure from the British northwest
caused freezing temperature in Alberta
ana Montana and frost in portions OF
Montana and North Dakota. This and
two other similar cold areas OF last week
advanced eastwardly. lowering tempera-
lures very decidedly from the northwest
to the middle and north Atlantic coasts
But their frost producing effect was re-
ported only in the northwestern and
northern States. above latitude A. de-
grees. except in a fcw elevated areas
farther south
The date OF occurrence OF the first kill
ing frost in the principal corn producing
States varies very considerably from
year to year. 1t very frequently falls
within the last week of September in
Nebraska, Iowa and southern Wiscon-
sin, and a week or two later in Kansas,
Missouri and Ohio. But severe frosts
have been reported In many years at
much earlier and later periods in all
these States. From present indications
tho month OF Septemher's mean temper
atures will he rather below the average
in the north central States, hut its kill
ing frosts are not likely to extend over
the great central valleys generally.
