Too Many Tramps.

| II the country can escape for another
year from any serious labor troubles. in
| all probability new era of prosperity
will begin. The evidence comes from all
sections that revival has begun. but
still the ranks OF the unemployed number
many thousands, and real, genuine pros
penty cannot come until work is found
! for these unemployed. In addition to the
thousands of idle wage-earners who would
work if work could be found it is esti-
mated the country supports more than a
million tramps who will not work under
any conditions. The tramp problem is a
hard one to solve, and yet solution must
be found if the country is to be per-
manently prosperous. Many of the states
have experimental with vagrant laws of
one kind or another, and with some degree
OF success, but still the country is overrln
with idle vagabonds who are a constant
menace TO society and are a heavy tax on
the people.
\agabondage is in the nature of a dis
ease, and it should be treated as such.
The whole country is stirred up over the
movement for good roads, and in nuny
parts one of the difficulties in the wav IS
the securing of laborers to construct the
proposed improved highways: In one state
1t has been suggested that tramps be cor
rallied and forced to become producers in
stead of consumers by working on the
roads. This scheme may not be possible
to the extent its advocates believe but it
may be useful in measure. Get rid of
the tramps should be the cry throughout
the country ashington Post.

KURN HATTIN HOMES.
Dedication of Third Building Within
Twelve Months to Occur Sept. 20.

The trustees of the New England Kurr
Hattn Homes announce the dedication O.
the new building at Westminster, Wednes
day, Sept. 49, the exercises beginning at
o'clock in the afternoon.
DR.. Hastings FL. Hart, agent of the Rus
sell Sage Foundation, New York city, will
deliver the address of the day. DR.. Hart
gives his entire time to the study of child
caring institutions. Other speakers who
will have a part in the program are Gov.
George II. Prouty, Newport, T. j. Boyn-
Pratt of Bellows Falls. The boys will as
sist in singing and unison exercises.
This home is situated in the midst Of a
beautiful landscape, the view embracing
some fifty miles of the Connecticut valley.
1t is hoped that many people will take adj
vantage of this opportunity to visit the in
stitution and become more familiar with
its advantages and needs. Teams will
meet trains at Walpole, Westminster and
CIRCUITS stations. Refreshments will be
served to out-of town guests at the Home,
had at the hotels in Walpole and West
minister.
This will be the third building which
the Kurn Hattin Homes have dedicated
within year. The dedication of the
Dickinson school building at Westminster
occurred on Oct. %, 1908, and that of the
Warner Memorial home at Saxtons River,
on Feb. %, 1909. With these new build
ings and the equipment which has been
provided the homes feel that their work
is on more permanent basis than ever
before When sufficient funds are pro-
vided one hundred boys can be cared for
with the present buildings, twenty-fiv at
Saxtons River and seventy-fve at West
Minister.

WEST RIVER ABANDONED.
Water Company Has Not Been Pump
ing From There for a Week.

The owners of the Brattleboro Water
Works company were much surprised last
Friday when they read in the local papers
about the results of the analysis of a
specimen of water taken from the Chest
nut Hill reservoir They had received no
word from Health Officer Tucker about
the pollution of the supply, and were as
tonished to think that he had not re
ported the matter as soon as receiving his
report from the state laboratory.
G. B. Crowell, superintendent of the
water company, says that the West river
pumping station was abandoned last Fri
day afternoon and that it will be un-
necessary to get any more water from
that source. Connection with the Pleas
ant Valley source was made Friday night,
and a six and two four-inch pipes from
there are now feeding the reservoir.
Since Friday the supply of water in the
reservoir has been increasing steadily.
As soon as possible, probably, the week
after the fair, the water company will
draw all the water from the Chestnut Hill
reservoir and give it a thorough cleaning.
This is a move that has been contem
plated for some time. While the reser-
voir is being cleaned the village will be
supplied from water direct from the
Pleasant Valley source.

Taft Defends Tariff.

the republican party, defended the Payne
tariff bill as the best tariff measure even
passed by a republican congress, and hence
known. The president boldly asserted
the bill had abandoned the republican
party WAS it the duty of the member
of congress who believed that the bill did
not accomplish everything that it ought
to accomplish to vote against n asked

who answer this question in the negative.

for the Payne bill, but to support them
President Taft's speech was that for
since he affixed his signature to the bill
He talked frankly and fearlessly to his
audience, and pointed out the things in
the law that he does not like, and ar
rayed against them its good points. As to
the wooden schedule, Mr.. Taft declared
without hesitation or equivocation that
the rates of the Payne bill were too high.
1t was found early in the fight, however,
he asserted, that the wool and wooden
manufacturing interests in the republican
party were 50 strong that any attempt to
change the Dingley rates would result in
a defeat of the bill II am sorry that this

alleges Mrs. Eddy had with him years ago,

was coupled with the claim OF being the
only white man to reach there, sailed INTO

enthusiastic welcome, in which the public
