NRDE was fighting for his very
 life. The notes given by New mark & Orde would come due
 beginning the following sum- mer. Before that time Orde must be able to meet them personally or his stock in the Boom company would be turned in to the firm. This would of course spell nearly a total loss of 1t as far as Orde was concerned.
 The chief anxiety under which the riverman labored however. was the imminent prospect of losing under the mortgage all the northern peninsula timber. Now. as the time approached. he realized that if he could not pay the notes the firm would certainly be unable to do so. What with the sec- ond mortgage due two years later and to be met by Newmark. with the out standing obligations, with the new en- terprlse of the vessels ordered from Duncan Mcleod Newmark & Orde would be unable to raise anything like the necessary amount. He fell upon
  rocity. A sale of the 40,0O0,O0O feet remaining of the firms up river hold ings, together with the tolls to be col lected for driving the river that spring, would bring Orde through by ''the skin of his teeth" To cut 40.000.O0O feet, even in these latter days of improve ments, would be task to strain to the utmost every resource of energy and organization.
 Nevertheless Orde accomplished the task. He lived constantly in the woods. The Rough Red had charge of the banking, where his aggressive. brutal personality kept the rollways free from congestion. When the drive started the cut was banked for miles along the stream, 40.000,000 feet of it.
 The strain over. Orde faced the task of driving the river.

COLUMBUS DAY BILL
Gov Mead Presents Pen to Represen-

Gov Mead Presents Pen to Represen-
tative Cory
The bill making October u, Col
umbus day legal holiday, was sign
ed by Governor Mead yesterday after
noon in the presence OF Representa-
tive Frank Cory end as a matter OF
courtesy and friendship for Mr.. Cor
ry, the governor turned over to him
the pen with which the bill was sign
ed This pen was of gola with
pearl handle. Some others also pre-
sent at the time congratulated both
the Governor and Mr.. Cory ana
shook hands all around.
The burdens of the labor TO make
Discovery day which Is recognized as
holiday in 10 other states, legal
holiday in Vermont rested on Repres-
entatiye Cory TO whom the whole
credit is due tie worked hard 10 put
the measure through and is desery-
ing OF all the praise that goes with
hard and persevering work.
The passage OF the bill is largely
due to his personal popularity and ef-
fectye work among members, Tor
there is probably no member OF the
house who has larger acquaintance
ship with members OF the legislature
and who can cali them by names,
some by their given names, as Mr..
Cory.
The establishment OF new holiday
Is no easy task, owing 20 natural a
version to increasing the number,
hence the task involved was no light
one. When the measure reached the
senate after passing the house its
friends felt that it was an uphill light
but such potent work supported by
great demand from all classes OF cit
izens of various secS@uns OF the state,
made an appeal that the senate could
not ignore, and all opposition melted
away until at the end Of the bill was
passed without debate and with only
one dissenting vote, a remarkable VIC
Tory.
The bill was introduced In the
house by Mr.. Cory on October 49,
was reported gayorably by the house
committee on November 10 after two
hearings. and was ordered to a third
reading which took place on Novem.
Der lG. and was passed by yea and
nay vote OF l2l to 90. The bill then
went to the senate where commit
tee hearing was held last Tuesday
evening before the general commit
tee. Another hearing was held We'd
nesday afternoon in the senate cham
Der to hear any opposition TO the
measure and besides Representative
CORY the bill was favored by ten SEN
ators. The committee reported the
bill favorably on Thursday morning,
II was ordered TO a third reading ON
viva voce vote. and the third read
ing aud passage occurred Friday
morning. The action OF the senate
was messaged to the Hcuse, the sig
natures Of the presiding officers were
attached ut noon and the governor
signed the bill ON Friday afternoon,

Washington, Dec 12.-Edward
Douglass White, of Louisiana, Dem.
ocrat, will be appointed Chief Justice
of the Supreme Court OF the United
States, to succeed the late Melville
W. Fuller
In some quarters here It has been
taken for granted that Associate JUS
tice Hughes would be made Chief
Justice. This was ON the theory that
President Taft would select a mem
Der of his own political party for the
highest appointment within his gift.
1t appears, however, that Mr.. Taft

sideration of the Supreme Court NOM

ton in connection with the chief JUS
ticeship. For many years President
Taft has regarded Justice White as
one of the strongest men In judicial
life in this country, and his decision
to promote him 10 Chief Justice not
withstanding that he belongs to an
other political party, is another evil
dence Of Mr. TafJ's desire to make
judicial selections purely on the basis
of merit.

neither confirmation nor denial was
obtainable al the White House, that

of Cheyenne, Wyo., now a federal
Judge in the Sth United States Cir
cult, and Joseph Rucker Lamar Of
Georgia, a Democrat and a former
Justice OF the Georgia Supreme
Court
In the last two or three days il be-
came known here that change in the
head of the Supreme Court slate
might be made. Some OF the Presl-
dents closest advisers argued with
him that Justice Hughes experience
at the bar had not been sufficient TO
warrant his promotion at this time 20
the highest judicial position in the
country. They declared that Mr.
Hughes reputation as a lawyer had
been gained principally In his con
duct OF two legislative Investigations.
They agreed with the President that
everything pointed to a most brilliant
career on the bench for the former
Governor. At the same time they Of
fered the argument that Justice
Hughes was the youngest man on the
bench and that his opportunity for
promotion would come later when he
would have had the advantage of the
maturing experience Of having served
several years on the bench.

Clerk Plumley of the House had in
his files ready to be acted on few
less than 100 bills. and there were
206 House bills in the committees
hands. The House also has awaiting
action the last veto message from
Governor Mead In which he returned
to the House without his approval,

ed that some Time this week the leg
islature will take action on the pro-
posed gift to the state by Represen-
tative Battell of Middlebury of Cam

doubt but what the state through the
legislature will gratefully accept this
gift, but there is little probability
that the suggestion of Mr.. Battell
that the name OF the mountain be

be adopted.

Kansas City. Mo-, Dec 12.-Re-
yenge and not robbery is now beliey-
ed to have been the motive for the
murder OF four persons on the BEN.
hard farm in Kansas last week. The
bodies were examined closely yester-

head. while Thomas Morgan and the
hired man, James Graves had evident
ly been killed by one or two blows.
Edward r. Boyle, head OF the Kan.
sas City Detective Bureau, who in
spected the scene OF the crime, said
that the first step would be to find
six men who recently worked at the
Bernhard farm. A strong box, In
which valuable papers and money
had been placed, was found yester.
day. In this box n deed. conveying
all OF Mrs. Bernhard's property to
her son George was found. From
