st. Adams has secured the annual
meetings of the Vermont Odd Fellow or
CARNATIONS for next year and will have
a large sum of money left in town as a
result. With new hotel St. Johnsburv
can get that convention the next year
and the money it brings with it. This of
course would not pay for new hotel
but it is only one of the things we might
secure with sufficient hotel accommoda-
tons. Think this over gentlemen and in
the words of Daniel Remich "heave in
your dollars" That is all that is needed
to give St. Johnsbury the best hotel &C.
commodations in Vermont.

The Cost of Living.

A commission appointed by the Massa-
chusetts legislature to investigate the
cost of living has recently made its re-
port to that body. While the report tells
why the cost of living is higher it did not
seem to fully understand how to reduce
it. However some of its conclusions are
of interest. They believe the increase in
cost is due to the increase in the supply
of gold, waste of income (both public
and private,) increased expenditures for
luxuries, the increasing burden of crime,
disease and pauperism, reduction of
the producing class of the agricultural
districts and an increase in the consum-
ing class of the cities.
Special attention was given to the
effect of the tariff, trusts and unions on
the, cost of living. The commission
finds that prices have risen and fallen
vii out regard to the rate of tariff
duties and that in free trade England there
has been an increase in the cost of living
the same as in this country. They
predict that the United States will soon
become a food importing country and
suggest that in the next revision of the
tariff the duties should be removed from
all food stuffs.
The fact that there has been no conspic-
uous advance in the goods controlled by
the trusts and that there are advances in
other countries where the trusts are not
so much in control leads the commission
to believe that trusts have little effect on
the cost of living. The fact that only ten
per cent of the workers of the country
are organized into unions and that some
of the most conspicuous advances in cost
have been made in those commodities
almost entirely produced by unorganized
labor leads to the same conclusion re-
garding the influence of unions on the
cost of living.
Several recommendations are made for
| the relief of these conditions but many of
them would certainly mean an increased
public cost at first and would appear
more as extravagances than a real
economy in the matter of living. Two
recommendations however would seem
to offer practical aid at this time. They
would have state free employment

"The passage of a resolve instructing

Measures to report to the next General
Court what, if any, legislation is then
necessary for the protection of the public
against the abuses connected with the
sale of coal at retail in this State
1t seems strange that the public rests

Seattle, Wash.-Threatened with
suffocation beneath seven fathoms OF
water, at the bottom OF the slip beside
pier No. 8, when an S00-pound rail
crashed across the slender pipes that
supplied him with air, Diver Henry
Peterson struggled grimly against i'm
pending death and when almost ex-
hausted managed to free himself.
While he struggled his companions
above labored frantically, working
the pumps that supply the life sus-
tanning element. Somewhere beneath
them, far beyond their reach, an is
sue was being fought out in which
they could have no part.
The news of the inexplicable, SIMS
ter battle sped along the water front.
Hundreds of people assembled at the
scene, powerless to render aid.
Peterson was recovering $50 tons
of steel rails lost off one of the Wash
ington Stevedoring company's scows.
The rails were a portion of consign-
ment brought from the United King
dom by the Blue Funnel liner Titan
on its last voyage to this port. After
they had been unloaded from the II
tan's hold the scow capsized and
dumped TAI OF them, each weighing
approximately 500 pounds. into the
bay.
Capt. Harry Finch & Son used one
of the Neptune Salvage company's
scows in recovering the rails. The
scow has a stationary engine and a
derrick for hauling the rails from the
water as fast as the diver hooked one.
Peterson hooked the cable TO a rail.
AS the engine drew the line taut pre-
paratory to lifting 1t to the scow a
rope attached to the derrick boom
gave way. The boom, freed from re-
straint, swerved directly across the
scow and dropped the S00-pound rail
into the water. where Diver Peterson
was working.
The rail fell athwart' the diver, pin
ming the tubes which supply him with
air. Realizing his predicament and
seeing death from suffocation beneath
the water staring him in the face, Pc
terson, with rare presence of mind
got down I'm the ooze and started to
disentangle the breathing tube from
beneath the rail.
Giving frantic signals to those on
the scow above that he was in immi-
