As.,to Campaign Expenses.

The Springfield Reporter, which
is working industriously and eff
GENTLY for DR.. Mead, quotes little
law in response to the demands on
the Rutland candidate to join the
other candidates for governor in fl
ing sworn statements of campaign
expenses. Section 5917 reads:
"a person who administers to
another an oath or affirmation or an
obligation in the nature of an oath,
which is not required or authorized
by law, or a person who voluntarily
suffers such oath or obligation to be
administered to him, or voluntarily
takes the same, shall be fined not
more than two hundred dollars nor
less than fifty dollars"
In other words, whoever would
undertake either to administer or
to take such an oath would violate
the law, says the Reporter.
OF course this does not prevent
Mr.. Fleetwood, DIR. Mead or Mr..
Hapgood singly or jointly, from
making public statements of their
campaign expenses or publishing any
other details of general interest, but
they are not likely to make any
unauthorized or any unofficial I'M
burdenings.
So far as one can see more law is
needed, and the'organs of republican
regularity are helpless to relieve the
situation now.
When in recent years has the
so-called republican machine of
Vermont had to take such a bitter
dose of its own medicine?

to the murder of Martha B.

Saturday evening. The ball of fire
which was pronounced by some peo-
pie to be as large and as brilliant as
an arc light apparently fell on an
angle towards the north. 1t was of
course in sight but few seconds and
people who saw it were so startled
that they could give but an indefi-
mite description of the visitor from
some other world. The phenomena
was particularly startling to persons
living outside the Ii hted area of
the village. In some of the farm
houses where the occupants had put
out the lamps but had not vet retired
the glare from the meteor was
sufficient to food the rooms with
light.

Roosevelt refused to accept
Although the definite negotiations
relative to the audience ended before
Mr.. Roosevelt left Egypt, the an
nouncement was withheld until after
Mr. Roosevelt reached Rome Sunday
at the solicitation of his American
Catholic friends there, who believed
that in the meantime the Vatican
might change his attitude
While at Gondokoro in February
last, Mr. Roosevelt wrote to Ambas-
sador l.eighman, saying that he
would be glad of the honor of an
audience with King Victor Emman-
uel and the pope. The audience
with the king was promptly arrang-
ed. Before an agreement could be
reached relative to an audience with
the pope, several kilograms were
passed, and the negotiations were
ended by Mr. Roosevelt refusing in
any way to be limited as to his con-
duct and announcing that an audi
ence with the pope, under the cir
cumstances, was now impossible.
