The Brattleboro reformer. (Brattleboro, Vt.) 1907-1912, 1909-09-10

Follett All did well and gave clear
idea what was intended by the two terms,
what child life under each might actu-
ally become a number of telling instances
that would lead one to depend more on
education, and with these the personal
obligation from life lessons made life a
much grander success 4 duet was pleas
toll. The paper by Rev Daniel Mcintyre
on the Southern question, if carried out
by the nation might easily solve the great
est national problem. No one could have
the slightest objection why the govern,
ment should not attend to the universal
education of the black man in the South;
The violin selection by NJ, Parke Osgood
was heartily applauded The recitation
by Miss Florence Il. Follett was the best

bate on the question: Resolved, That the
South has made more material and moral
progress since the war than the North,
Col. A. b. Franklin taking the aftirma-

closed How the agricultural interests OF
the South had been developed. Showed
the advanced condition OF the prohlbi-

the North Rev. A. f. Martin While
acknowledging the strength of the above
arguments proceeded to show several lines
of thought might be considered that would
show that the South was mote keeping
pace with the tremendous advance OF the
Northern capital and industry. Satisfies

one of the greatest interest to all the

BRADY'S VIEWS OF ADA ELEC.
TION
The Governor Says the Results are
Due to the Systematic Work
of the Saloons

Gov. Brady has made the follow
ing statement concerning the local
option election in Ada county last
Wednesday:
II was somewhat surprised at the
vote in the county precincts at the
local option election, but was not
surprised at the vote in the city.
have had considerable experience in
conducting campaigns and | have
observed the progress of the cam
paign in Ada county with much in
terest. attribute the victory for
the saloons more to complete or
ganization than anything else. They
conducted thorough and systemat-
ic campaign, with plenty of funds
and ardent workers that made it al
most an impossibility to secure an
unbiased verdict of the people. The
drys were honest and enthusiastic,
but have not had the experience in
campaigns the other side possessed,
They were very short of funds, and
in my Judgment it is only fair to
say that only those who were earn
estly in favor of temperance voted
the dry ticket and that the vets Sc
cured absolutely what is generally
known in political parlance as the
doubtful vote.
''The temperance question in the
state should not be considered by
the vote of any particular county,
but, in order to show what the sem
timent of the people of the tsate is,
the state should be taken as a whole,
AS an illustration, we have held To-
cal option election in six counties
and the majority against the saloon
was 1905 and the majority in favor
of the saloon is 1917. | think when
the people Of the state get a chance
| to vote on the temperance question
that is just about the majority that
will be shown throughout the state.
The men on both sides of the ques-
| ton were in earnest and should be
| given credit for acting for what
they considered their best inter-
| ests.-Ex.

PoCATELLo EXCITED
Rumor that the Railroad Company
Intend Running West Of that City
On Mountain Time

Rumor was current yesterday to
the effect that the Hartman system
intended to shortly change the time
on the system west of Pocatello from
Mountain to Pacific time. The report
was denied at division headquarters
but not before considerable feeling
was engendered among local men
Some of them were up in arms
against the proposed innovation.
They pointed out that any sort OF
system that would permit of train
from the west leaving Pocatello an
hour before it arrived was bad sys-
tenn They refused to o. K. propo-
sitions of making the time at the east
>nd of the depot one hour different
from the time at the west end. Dur
ing the day two factions sprung up,
one calling itself the new timers, =
and the other the 'old timers, then
there up bobbed third party, the
'half-timers," who were willing to
split the difference.
Bob Graham's store on North Main
street is exactly on line with the
division headquarters. When he
heard of the plan to change the time
he was all worked up. He thought +
great. When he fingered long r
down town than he should and din
ner at home was getting cold and h $
wife was phoning all he would haze
to do would be to step over to Il 4
west side of the store and he wou,a
be on time.
Paul Gardner, the contractor, is
working big force of men on vari-
Gus jobs. They work by the day.
Some of them live in the north end
of town and some in the south end.
Those from the north end would UNI
der the new arrangement come to
work an hour earlier and quit an
hour earlier those from the south end
would come to work an hour later
and quit an hour later. Paul kicked
like bay steer on the change.
School children from the north end
of town would be marked up with
merit marks every day under the
proposed arrangement, and those
from the south end would be tardy
all the time. But the kids from the
north end would probably fight with
teacher when it came their time to go
home
Joe Danger says that any train
that leaves an hour before it arrived
don't look good to him, and if the
time is changed he will take his trip
to Ogden by ox-team.
DR.. Wright has watch that hasn't
been off second since it was given
to him. Under the proposed new ar
rangement it would be off all the
time He kicked on the change and
wired DR.. Pinkerton for backing.
John Ellis also kicks. He don't
see how he could drive one of those
good looking school teachers from the
north end of town and reach the
south end an hour before he started
out. Even Johns fast pacing mare
would tire out at that gait.
1t is lucky all around that the
Short Line does not intend to make
the change .-Pocatello Tribune.

other lines paid for a four-tenths. /

other lines paid for a four-tenths. In
the long run the interest per mile OF
cost will greatly overshadow the ope-
rating cost of our somewhat heavier
grade. But in many places we have
not only shortened the route between
cities, but have got great deal bet
ter grade. For instance, our route be-
tween Spokane and Walla Walla is so
miles shorter than the Hartman line,
and as for grades, the Hill lines are
no comparison. So it is with our
construction to the coast, we want
the easiest grades no matter how long
it takes to get here.
A Main Line
mo, | do not care to go into de-
tails concerning our future move
ments. And there is no use asking
questions about some line being back
of the North Coast We are making
connections with all of them. The
North Coast is putting in main
line from Spokane to the sound and
will build to Portland eventually.
"We are building with Coast lines
south from Spokane to Tekoa and Pre-
putting in a branch line from the
Walla Walla junction of the main line
north to Davenport, and another west
into Adams county. We intend to
build line from Walla Walla to the
Salmon river, Idaho. We will cross
the Columbia river 80 miles above
Kennewick on the Coast line and for
the line that branches from Kiona to
Walla ,Walla and the Salmon river
will cross at Alfalfa below Keenewick.
There is to be a branch at Granger
tapping the Toppenish valley
So far as can be learned from re-
liable authority in Boise the new road
will be konwn as the North Coast
from Spokane to Seattle or one of
the main feeder railroads. 1t is con-
fidently believed it will be generally
known as the Northwestern 1t will
connect with the Great Northern,
Northern Pacific, Milwaukee and
Hartman lines in the northwest so
that it will become a feeder to all
these roads and they in turn will act
as feeders to it.-Capital News.
