PARKER ATTACKS
 MIR. R0OSEvELT'S ATTACK ON COURTS
6specia1 from United Press


 New York, Sept. Tt is safe to assert that the attack upon the Su- preme Court of the United States by MT. Roosevelt in his address to the legislature in Colorado. will not be approved by the bench and bar and thoughtful qeople of this country wing appreciate the use of the judiciary in GUT governmental system and the necessity for a continuance of the ex- isting public confidence in our courts"
 This declaration was made in "a. statement given to the United Press yesteDday afternoon by Eormec Judge Al4on B. Parker who was defeated by Colonel Roosevelt for the Presi- dency in 1904.
 E'It happened that 5n the case of the address as the .Bucketshop' case" continued Parker "the prevailing opinion of the courts of appeals of this n*ate, was written by myself with conc0rring opinions by Judges Gray aud Vann. Judges O'Brien and Bart lett wrote dissenting opinions; SO that in all five opinions were written in the court of appeals showing the ap- preciation by that court of the fact that the question was a very close indeed, this fact was made Very prom inent in the interesting debates around the consultation table as well as in the opiniens written
 ".The history of tI1iAr case inSkoates how narrow was the dividing line ber tween upholding and rejecting the statute The trial judge held the statute constitutional and the appel late divisfon affirmed his decision by a vote of 3 to and the court of ap- peals. aftiMned the appellate division by a vote of to 3. The Supreme Court of the United States reversed the court of appeals by vote of 5 to 4. sa

 thought was coming But it did not descend Instead ke heard a gunshot. A weight sank across his calves Then, with a final effort, he pulled himself free and staggered to his fee&, his head rocking. his knees sagging. He saw mans figure facing him and lunged at it to bring up in the arms of f'Fingerless'' Fraser
 Boyd turned and beheId the body of man stretched face downward on the floor. Beyond the fellow in the gray suit was disappearing i2to the crowd. Then he saw a gaeam of blue metal in Frasers heads
 stGfve me that gunr' he panted.
 ''I may need it myself, and I ain't got but the one here. Let's get Clyde out of this''
 Fraser lifted the young c1ubman who was huddled in formless hear as if he had fallen from a great height and together the two dragged him to- ward the Bedford Castle.
 That night under glaring headlines the evening papers told the story, re porting one fisherman fatally hurt, one striker dead of a gunshot wound and many others injured

street.
 'Im a union man, and you can't load that ship with Escabs.'"- The stranger swore as he slunk off.
 The first actual violence, however, occurred when the fishermen knaSked off for the noon hour. Boyd called up the police department, then summoned Big George. It was with considerable difficulty that the nonunion crew fought it's way back to resume work at 1 o'clock.
 During the afternoon the strikers made several attempts to enter the dock shed, and it required a firm stand by the guards to restrain them.
 The next morning found the non union men out in such force that they were divided into night and a day crew, half of them being sent back to report later, while among the noun tains Nf freight the work went for ward faster than ever. But in time the city awoke to the realization that a serious conflict was in progress. The handful of fishermen, outnum- bered twenty to one and guarded only by a thin line of pickets, became a center of general interest.
 It was on the fourth day that Royd espied the man in the gray suit among the strikers and pointed him out to his three companions, Clyde and Fra ser having joined him and George in a spirit of curiosity
 Late in the afternoon, without a monent's warning, the strikers rushed in a body, bearing down the guards like reeds.
 Emerson and his companions found themselves carried away before the on ,I,L oT7i &Ian tnT sucked into a maelstrom where the ! first duty was self preservation. Boyd succeeded 1n keeping bis footing and eventually fought his way to backing of crated machinery, where he stopped and ripped a cleat loose. Then, laying about him with this weapon, he clear ed a space.
 At the first alarm the fishermen had armed themselves with bale hooks and bludgeans and for time worked hevoc among their assailants.
 Seeing Clyde in a helpless condition, Emerson shouted:
 Come on. I'll help you aboard the ship.'' He found a hardwood club be. meath his feet and with it cleared 8 pathway for Clyde and hipself- He suddenly spfed the man in the gray suit, who had climbed upon one o1 the freight piles, whence bN was scan ming the crowd. Tie man recognized Emerson and pointed him out. The na1t instant Boyd saw him approach ing, followed by several others. Then, though Boyd fell back farther, the others rushed in and he found himself hard beset What happened thereafter neither he nor Alton Clyde, who was half dazed to begin with, eTere clearly remembered-
 Before he had recognized the person al nature of the assault Emerson found himself engaged in a furious hand to hand struggle. Then a sudden black ness swallowed him up, after which he found himself upon his kneess his arms loosely encircling a pair of legs. As he struggled upward something sEnote him in the side with sickeQing force. and he went to his knees again. He could only raise his shoulder and fling an arm weakly above his head in anticipation of the crushing blow he

gardening. He has effected marked i'm
provements in his property adding to his
holdings of land and has remodelled and
rebuilt the buildings. Instead of a
little place with horse and cow he now
keeps from IL to 16 COWS, a team and
20 sheep. He has constructed a green,
house and uses about 1000 feet of
glass to cover his plants. Aside from his
market gardening, the produce of which
he sells entirely in St. Johnsbury, he
does large business in Towering and
vegetable plants supplying the trade in
Caledonia, and Essex counties and in
western New Hampshire. This season
he sold from his gardens 200 bushels of
green peas, 5000 celery plants, one and
a half tons of ripe tomatoes and 1000
dozen ears of green corn besides other
small produce, and fruits.
As a member of Wide Awake Grange he
has served as master, secretary and
lecturer. He has also held the same
offices in Shepherd Pomona Grange and
is still lecturer of that organization. He
was appointed district deputy by State
Master c. ]. Bell, and served three
years. He was reappointed by State
Master G. W. Pierce, but resigned. Dur
ing his term as deputy he organized FIVE
oranges in Caledonia and Essex counties.
With this practical experience as a
farmer and granger the Vermont grange
may expect practical and helpful instruc-
tion from its lecturer.

E. H. Hallett, Lecturer.
Brief Sketch of a Practical and Sue
ceSSful Farmer and Granger.

E. H. Hallett of st. Johnsbury Center.
who was recently elected lecturer of the
Vermont State Grange, is apractical and
successful farmer and has been actively
identified with the grange since he was
16 years old. In 1879 he joined Wide
Awake Grange at St. Johnsbury Center
and has been a member ever since. He
has also been lifelong practical farmer
commencing with six acres of land and is
now the owner of 365 acres, having re-
Gently purchased farm of $50 acres on
which there is large amount of grow
ing wood and timber and some fine
grass land. He expects the growth of
the timber will greatly increase the
lands value. He is also a self made
man.
He was born here Sept. %, 1868. His
father died while he was a young boy
leaving him and his mother to earn their
own way in the world. They lived at
the time on little place of six acres in
St. Johnsbury Center and it is still Mr..
Ha1lett's home. AS soon as he was
old enough he secured position i'll the
Fairbanks Scale works and attended to
his farm duties outside of his shop hours.
He continued work at the shops until
six years ago and since that time has
given his whole attention to market
