VOTING A DUTY.

(From the Essex County Herald.)
In Vermont and In other States where
one or the other party has a large ma
jority sentiment prevails that 1t Ia of
little consequence whether one votes or
docs not in OFF years. Acting upon this
idea some OF the citizens manage to get
interested in political matters only once
in -four years. and at other times prac-
tlcally neglect their political duties, This
is a mlschievous sentiment. 1T is a bad
custom which elbows a good citizen to
excuse himself from dlschargng a public
duty. The man who desires good govern
ment should make II a duty to vota at
every election held where he Is q voter
This Is an off year. and ono hears people
predicting light vote for no other reason
than II Is an off year. and so little inter
est In political Matters. There should be
quito as much personal interest in the
election in Vermont this year as there
was two years ago. Nay. more 30, The
Legislature will be called upon to &c,
upon important questions and measures
There are number Of reasons why II is
important that tho republican ticket
should have q full vote In Vermont this
wear. Therefore let MS get out q full vote
ard show to the country at large that our
ur sanzation is vigorous and its ranks
fun: that It Is fun Of courage intact in
Numbers. and strong and sincere In It's
devotion to party principles Let US have
an emphatic declaration at the polls TO
this effect.

INCREASE IN POPULATION.
Vermont win Retain Two Congress.
mcN, says Mr. HayA.

J.. NJ llnvs. supervisor OF the census
for Vermont, was yesterday asked by a
Free Press reporter II. In his opinion,
there were any danger Of Vermont losing
a rcpres in Congress when the
census returns are announced and a re-
apportionment Of representation made.
Mr.. Hays said that, while the exact
figures OF Nermont's population must
come from Washington, he felt safe In
saying that the State had made sub
stantial gain in the past ten wears. 1.-The
stories which have appeared in New York
and New England papers announcing n
decrease in the population of Vermont are
erroneous said Mr.. Hays. He also said
that he had every reason to believe that
tho gain would he sufficient to warrant
two congressman.

TRIP TO HELP MY POLICIES
How Warrington Views Western
Travels Of Colonel Roosevelt.
From the New York Post.


That Theodore Roosevelt will return
from his Western tour a potential factor
In the race for the republican nomna-
ton for president in 1912 is the firm opin-
ion OF men who have reached Washing
:on after having visited Beverly and Oys-
ter Bay. where they familiarized them
selves with the political situation as It
relates TO Colonel Roosevelt.
They bring the report 10 Washington
that In his coming speeches in the West
Colonel Roosevelt will take an adva need
ground in favor Of the revision OF the
tariff by schedules. physical valuation Of
railroads, government control of railroads
and industrial corporation a graduated
income tax, and the initiative referendum
and recall. 1t is understood he will urge
tho States to undertake the last policy
and give II thorough trial. with a view
later to its Incorporation as federal
policy.
These same informants say that the ex-
president does not need to go West to
sad out what the people are thinking
about. or to let them know about what
he Is thinking. While they admit that he
Is interested in seeing g republican Con-
gress elected this fall, they maintain tina t
his chief interest Is TO secure a majority
OF the membership for Roosevelt policies.
1t Is known that part Of the reliance OF
President Taft. should he be candidate
for denomination, would be the Southern
States. where the republican politicians
are popularity supposed to be In control
Of Postmaster-G General Frank H. Hitch
cock. 1t Is said that Colonel Roosevelt
does not think Mr.. Hitchcock can deliver
the South solidly to any candidate In 1912.
Having organized Southern republican
ism into a working political unit himself.
he does not believe that another man has
more power than he. This view has re-
ers OF national reputation, who talked
freely on the situation as between Colo
| mel Roosevelt and Mr.. Taft. In this con-
nection. It was pointed out that Mr.. Taft
a. President had done little to hold the
South IN allegiance to him, and his dis
carding OF the Roosevelt referees system
was cited as a point In confederation of
this assertion.
Although Colonel Rooscvelt's speeches
on his Western trip have been widely dis
tributed in advance to newspapers and
| magazines. no advance copies were sent
to Beverly according to the best infor-
| nation obtainable here This is regarded
as especially significant, in view OF tho
fact that President Tart and Colonel
Roosevelt are to speak to the conserva-
tive Congress from the same platform In
| st. Paul.
| 1t is the general opinion that the break
between Colonel Roosevelt and Vice
| President Sherman In New York is sc
| complete that nothing can heal 1t. Upor
this point. the friends of Colonel Roose-
Welt are definite.
| They profess 70 believe, however, thai
the progressive leadership. with Roose-
Welt a contender for 1t, will not be large
enough to hold more than one man
What tho process Of elimination will be Is
not specified.

THIRD ATTEMPT SUCCESSFUL
Henry Prince Ends His Life by
Drinking Carbolic Acid.
Dead Hosly Of Despondent Man Found
Thursday Evening in 81 Room mt
battery street Hotcl--notes
Pinned to Cont.

The body of Henry Prince was found
Thursday evening in IL room at Joseph
Nitchell's hotel on the corner of
South Battery and King streets. by
Gilbert Fagga, a clerk in the house
The presence of a vial, which had
contained carbolic acid, and four
notes, which the dead man had writ,
zen and pinned to n conspicuous
place on his cont. told the story of his
daath.
Prince had lived in this city most
of tho time during his life time of %
years, but came here for the last time
about six weeks ago. He had been work
ing and had with him considerable
sum OF money, which he proceeded to
spend freely. During most of the
time he drank heavily and few
days ago his funds became exhausted.
Since that time his wife and Land
lord Mitchell have CONSTITUTED to his
support, and II is thought his despon-
denoy was brought on by the excess
ave use Of liquor and his dependency.
The last seen Of the man alive was
when he went into his room Thursday
noon and said that nc was going TO
lie down a while and wanted to be

forgot to do and did not think OF It
until last evening when he found him
dead He lay on the bed wholly
dressed, and on a chair was found a
bottle containing alcohol and q vial,
which had contained carbolic acid. At
