John Mead did come out on top at the
republican state convention at Mont
peIier Yesterday, although two ballots
were necessary instead of one as we
thought probable. 1t was case of
bar'l against machine and BARI won.
And many an organization heart
palpitates today in fear of what may
happen after September next. Moneys
voice was heard again above all the
clamor against its use IN politics.
One reason for this may be the fact
that the loudest protests came di-
rectly or indirectly from political lead
ers who in past campaigns have
suffered no similar qualms of con-
science. There is no hope for the fu-
ture of Vermont politics in this view of
the situation.
Now that DR.. Mead has secured the
nomination in spite of repeated charges
against his personal fitness and his
methods it will be interesting to see
what attitude will be taken by his
opponents. AS we said last week
there are but two courses open for the
men who have been fighting DR.. MeaC
so strenuously. They must admit
that the charges against his methods
are without foundation and thus still
further shake the popular faith il
pre-convention assertions, or they mus
refuse absolutely to lend their supper
to candidate whose nomination wa
the result of such methods. Brattle

Gentlemen In regard to your Nor

after having given it thorough trial,
that I have never found anything to
take it's place for keeping horses
foot in good healthy growing condi
ton, and it is an absolute preventive
and cure for thrush.
It is hardly worth while for me to
write you this testimonial, as the
quantities I use must show you that
appreciate its value.
I hope to see you over in this part of
the country before long, when | will
show you what your liniment does for
my horses feet. I can say one thing,
and that is, if it is used during the
never have hoofbound horses, as it
keeps up the circulation and there is
no chance for congestion or fever. !
have used the liniment in cases of sore
throat and colds for my horses inter-
nally with great success, and in cases
of bruises, cuts, or calking in winter,
I don't think it has it's equal.
Faithfully yours,

The railroad rate bill as it came from
conference and was adopted gives
greater power to the Interstate Com
merce commission, as rates must now
have it's appr oval before going into
effect instead of simply being subject
to investigation by it after complaint.
The commission has ten months to
pass judgment on new rates. Railroads
are forbidden to charge more for a
short haul than for long one,
but the commission may decide
when exceptions to the rule are
allowable on account of competition
with transportation by water. A
court of commerce is created, which
may review the acts Of the commission.
In dispute over rates the burden OF
proof is placed on the railroads wher
required by the commission. The
commission is also to have jurisdiction
of the telegraph and telephone bust
ness. The bill as passed lacked tw'
features that were at one time urged
One of these was permission o
agre ements for pooling. The othe
was government regulation of railroa'
capitalization, although provision TO
investigation of capitalization wa

MILL men TO TEST
CORPORATION TAX
Mills Of Fall River to Pay Fed
eraI Tribute Under Protest

Fall River, Mass, July All
corporations here will pay the federal
corporation tax under protest, and the
treasurers of most of them intend to
emphasize their protests by delaying
payment until formal demand is made
for payment.
The tax is due July 1. Unless it is
paid within ten days of that date a
demand will be made, and accom-
panying this demand will be an addi-
tional charge of percent on the
amount of the tax. Most of the treas
urers will submit to- this extra charge
in order to place their protests on
record.
1t is expected that all of the COR
porations associated with the Ark
wright club will join with it in testing
the corporation tax law in the courts.

The Result.

The struggle is at an end, DIR. John
A. Mead has won a notable victory
against great odds, and Rutland will
be the home city of Vermont's next
governor. In spite of every effort to
swing the convention away from him,
DR.. Mead held his delegates after the
first ballot, and gained enough votes
from the Batchelder constituency on
the second ballot to clinch the result.
The margin by which he secured the
nomination was one of the closest in
the history of Vermont state conven-
tions, but the victory is an excep-
tionally satisfactory and popular one
in view of the persistent fight by
which it was accomplished.
Early in the campaign Proctor op-
position to his candidacy was manifest.
Yelled at first, it became more clearly
outlined as the campaign progressed,
and at the last it was plainly in evi
dence, with no attempt at concealment.
Practically no stone was left unturned
in the attempt to defeat DR.. Mead,
but his confidence in the result was
mistaken, and is proven justified by
the turn of events.
The nomination of Leighton P. Slack
of st. Johnsbury for acknowledgement,
or meets with general approval.
Mr.. Slack is a lawyer of exceptional
attachments, and is looked upon as
we'll qualified to assume the office, tc
fill which he has been selected. By
his victory the scale towns are united.

The Bargain Day" Plan.

Morrisville merchants held their first
bargain day" last week, and the
News and Citizen called it a big
success. Crowds came from all
directions. Up-to-date goods were
disposed of at special prices, the band
gave an open air concert, several
hundred people were fed at tables
spread by local societies "for a con-
sideration," everybody had a good
time, and merchants did a satisfactory
stroke of business.
If this can be done in Morrisville, it
can be done elsewhere including
Ludlow. Business men, why not try
it? We have up-to-date goods, the
band, excellent facilities for taking
care of crowd of visitors, - in short,
everything to make bargain day"

STRAINED ANKLE
 MAY INTERFERE WITH PLANS
 OF REACHING NEW YORK CITY

Albany, April 2S.-Edward Payson Weston met with an accident yester- day afternoon which renders prob lematica1 the question as to whether he can finish his transcontinenta1 walk at City Hall, New Yorl9 this week, as he had planned. Last night he was lying in the farmhouse of T. Raymond Van Hoesen, nine miles south of Albany, on the Old Post Road from Albany to New York, and while the physiciaM who was called from Greenbush, five miles away, to attend him, expressed the opinion that the old mar might be able te resume his trip Tn the morning, che wasn't positive about it.
 Weston has a badly swollen right ankle, which is paining him great deal, but his courage is undiminished, ], and he said last evening that he was sure he could go ahead in the morn ing.
 The examination of the injury by the doctor did not disclose any frac- ture The physician said that so far ss he could determine from the swo1- len ankle the injury consisted of a ngament d the right ankle bone. He bound the injured leg up tightly in bandages and applied some 1iniment.
 Weston had been making fine pro- gress all day up to the time he was injured, and fully expected to make one of the biggest days score of his last week on the road. He had traV- eleds forty-nine miles since 2 o'clock ir the. morning and was still going strong and easily at 5:15 in the after min, when he came to grief.
 Weston was on the Albany-New York Post Road, four miles east of Castleton and nine miles south of AL bany, when the automobile ,carryin g his assistants caught up with him after having been diverted from the route. Weston's car had stopped to see if he wanted any food or drink, and the old man was standing on the left side of the car talking to his friends when a car running in the opposite direction and travelling at 8 moderate speed, approached. Weston had asked the driver of his car to go ahead to the next farmhouse and ar range for a bed for him, as he was suffering from want of sleep. and the chauffeur was about to start when the car going toward Albany was passing. -
 Mir Weston was himself close to his own car and out of all apparent danger, but about four feet in front of him was Lewis Guy, about 20 years old of Troy, who had walked the if teen miles out of Troy with Weston. Guy was standing with his left side toward the approaching automobile and was listening to what Weston was saying. The mud guard of the car going toward Albany struck the boy in the left hip and knocked him

against Weston, who was knocked down by the impact of Guys body. and Guy, fell heavily upon the old mans feet. The driver of the ear which had done the damage stopped his car within distance of five feet and the wheels did not pass over either the young man or the aged
 The New York Times representa- tive who had been talking to Weston leaped from the pedestrian's- attend ing car, picked the. old man up in his arms, and found he was SO dazed that he could not stand alone. In mo- ment, however, the old man regained complete control of his senses, and said:
 "Don't help me If can't go ahead alone I'll go backward
 Weston staggered from the shock when the reporter let go of him, and d helping arm was extended to him. He insisted that he should be led back ward toward Albany, and was assist down on the grass at the side of the road. The shock had jared the iron nerve of the old man, and he said that he felt a. considerable pain in his right ankle, but he declined further assist ance and said:
 sIt's pretty hard luck if I'm to be laid out when I am almost in sight of News York. and that after coming in safely over 5000 miles,
 The man running the touring car which had caused the damage jumped out of his car as soon as he saw the two men fall and he could bring his automobile to a stop. and expressed the greatest solicitude for the old man.
 Weston sat on the side of the road for about five minutes until he could pull himself together. and then he de- clared he felt able to walk on to the nearest farmhouse. and did so. al- though he was 1imping. The nearest farmhouse is that of Farmer T. Ray mond Van Hoesen, and is large, comfortable place. The Van Hoesens extended the hospitality of their home to the injured pedestrian, who walked the eighth of a, mile between the scene of the accident and the house without any assistance. refusing to let those with him help along even to the ex- tent oftaking hold of his elbow.
 Weston in bed within twenty minutes after he was hurt. Dr. Ira M. Garrison of Greenbush, the nearest available physician. was called at once. He had to drive five miles over bad roads in his runabout car, and it was an hour after Weston was injured be- fore he received medical attention. Weston told the doctor that he posi- lively must proceed on his Journey to New York today. As the doctor was lbandaging his foot and ankle Weston said:
 tfYou be sure to get that on snug so can have my stocking and shoe on over it in the morning, for I am certainly going to get to New York before Saturday, night
