TALK OF VILLAGE MEETING.
Story Afloat That a New Board of
Bailiffs Will Be Put In.

Village meeting comes next Tuesday but
there Is little talk about village politics
Henry r. Brown and George L. Gilman
of the present board of bailiffs have stated
positively that they will not be cand
dates for reelection, but the other three
members are willing to be reelected for
aught anyone knows. 1t was stated on
the street yesterday that plans were un.
der way for the election Of new ticket
made up of new men with one exception
This is said to be the slate: Ernest i
Waterman, John II. Kane. Oscar r
Ware, Solon Richmond and w. S. Stearns
There has also been talk of running E.
W. Blodgett, H. H.. Burnett and Dennis
Duggan, and yesterday number of the
friends of w. ]. Pentland, jr., were work
ing up his candidacy. Mr.. Pentand is
in no way. looking for the office and will
make no fight for it although he would
serve if elected. There was talk yester-
day that the board Of trade would have a
ticket in the field. This is absolutely
without foundation. The board of trade
interests itself in matters pertaining to
the. welfare of the town and village, but
never has and never will mix in local pol
itics in any way.
Article eight of the warrant for the an
nual village meeting Tuesday evening at
730 reads as follows ''To see if the vii
lage will authorize the bailiffs to borrow
money for the purpose of paying the out
standing debt of the water board When
the water board was elected several years
ago an appropriation of $1,000 was made
for its use, and the larger part Of it was
paid for surveys. estimates, specifications,
labor etc, relative to the present water
system and to possible Independent sys-
TEN. Later the board deemed it advis-
able to retain the services of lawyers when
a proposed amendment to the village char
ter was under consideration at Montpelier
by the Legislature of 1906. and it is to pay
for those legal services that the article
referred to contemplates. J. X. Batchel-
der of Arlington, George A. Weston of
Bellows Falls and the Waterman law of
flee of Brattleboro have bills for $3.50 each,
and J. c. Jones of Rutland was paid S25
for his services. Considerable was paid
for telephone, telegraph and incidental ex-
penses but no charge was made against
the village for those items, and the vii
lage is not asked to pay them

Vermont's War Governor.
(Boston Transcript.

Ex-Governor Holbrook of Vermont wae
one of the oldest of the venerable men
who have come down to us from for
mer generation" His years nearly COW
cred the span of three generations, and
they were years distinguished by public
and private activities much above the av-
erage in character and value. He was
educated at school of which Professor
Chester Dewey, one of the most distin-
guished chemists and botanists of his
time, was principal, and Mark Hopkins
afterward the famous president of VIII
liams college, vice principal, so the condi
tions that President Garfield said would
constitute all the university that he cared
for were practically present Holbrook
was of good old New England stock, the
kind that raised large families he being
the youngest of ten children But it was
as governor of his state during the Civil
war that he won his highest distinction
and left a name for history. The demands
of that time showed him to be possessed
of high patriotism and sound Judgment.
Through his well directed efforts Yer
mont gained place of large credit in the
great struggle. and his service won for
him the appreciation and warm friend
ship of the president in whose martyrdom
the struggle was to end. But two war
xecutives-Sprague of Rhode Island and
Crawford of kansas-now survive.

1t was estimated by the London Statist
in November, 1892. that in the 33 years
ending with March Of that year.. the
amount of gold which had gone to India
and been retained. or in other words
boarded, was no less than e356,324 900.
This was at the rate of fl0750,00O per
annum A 50-year period is now COM
pleted and there is no reason to suppose
that the Indian boarding has become less.
There are. in fact, some reasons which
may be adduced for supposing that the
amount of gold secreted has tended to in
