vofceless void on and after January 1. 1911
Cape Cod folk who are now wondering
whether the last election changed the con-

legislative and executive powers and placed

right to designate a United States Senator,
may recall Goldsmith's lines on the school

April, to fill the vacancy caused by the
death of Representative Lowering. This
fall he was nominated for Governor, but
did not resign his seat in the House Ac-
cording TO stories which have reached
Washington, he told some of his friends
that, If elected Governor. ne would as
such, appoint a Representative TO fill out
his term as member of the House from

NO SUPREME COURT SLATE
MIR. Taft Says All Reports Are
Pure Guesswork.

Washington. Dec 2-Presidert Taft, hav-
ing his message out of the way, began final
consideration of his forthcoming appoint
rnents TO the Supreme Court and the Court
of Commerce to-day Mr. Taft declared to
his callers that all reports as to States
were pure guesswork. and that he was still
OF an open mind and would listen to the
claims of several scores of candidates.
The President talked with number of
Senators and Representatives to-day. His
most extended judiciary conference, how
ever. was with Judge Sanborn, Of St. Paul
e member of the 8th Circuit Court. Judge
Sanborn has been considered Supreme
Court timber. but has been eliminated from
present consideration because he took part
in the Standard Oil decision. The President
wanted 70 get some first hand Information
regarding varieus judges who have been
suggested for promotion either to the Su-
preme Court or the Court OF Commerce.
Mr Taft also talked at some length with
Attorney General John ". Griggs. Asso-
ciate Justice Swayze and Chief Justice
Gummere. Of the New Jersey Supreme
Court. and Chancellor Mahlon Pftney were
discussed. The general impression is that
Il a selection is made from New Jersey it

MUST BE A "LICKSPITTLE"
New York Lawyer Withdraws
Remarks Before Supreme Court.

Washington Dec 2-DeclarinE that tn
der the last two administrations It had
been necessary in order TO be "a great sol
siier 10 bow 10 the sceptTe and be a lick
spittle." Alexander s. Bacon, a New York
I2wyer stirred the Supreme Court Of the
United States to-day.
With some indignation Associate Justice
White interrupted lie lawyer with an OBJ
lection to what he termed aspersions on
coordinate branch Of the government. not
contained in the record being considered by
the court Mr.. Bacon withdrew his state
ulent with apologies 10 the court
The attorney was arguing that the courts
of the District Of Columbia had erred in
refusing 10 compel the War Department
officials to bring into court for examination
the records in the case Of Second Lieuten-
arr Winslow Hart Reeves, artillery corps,
and 10 retinstaIe him in the army. Mr..
Bacon declared that Reeves had suffered
from nervous exhaustion while serving in
the Philippines and that his physical con-
dition entitled him 10 retirement on three
fol,rths paw Instead. and by reason Of al
legged enemiees in the War Department II
was claimed by Mr.. Bacon that Reeves had
been dismissed from the army with only
che years pay.
IN this day Of imperialism, said Mr..
Bacon. 1t seems 70 be a feeling, even
among judges, that the President of the
United States can do anything. The time
was when al officer would spurn the idea
Of promotion through his wifes influence
Things have changed now. To be a great
soldier now you must bow to the sceptre
and be a Iicksptttle." II was here that
Justice White interrupted him After
apologizing Mr.. Bacon closed his remarks
by saying that he believed the justice
would be surprised by a perusal Of the
case.
In his brief Nj. Bacon said that the dis
rnissaI OF Lieutenant Reeves would be
blot on the fair name Of military justice.
If such methods are to prevail, he said,
every officer viii feel that his commission
is unsafe in the hands OF an unscrupulous
department, and that fiattery and sub
serviency are more potent protectors 10 a
commission than efficiency in the line Of
duty

The gasoline launch. Fismetchie,
owned by G.. R. Moore was totally de-
stroyed by fire last week Tuesday.
Mr.. Moore was on a tip down the
lake to take up so ne buoys and
markers for the Memphremagog
Yacht club and took his gun and row
boat along, anticipating an opportu-
nifty to shoot ducks. The ducks being
in evidence he tied the launch at
Horseneck Island and takino the small
boat proceeded to stalk his game.
While thus engaged, his attention was
called to the Island by what seemed
to be gunshots, but proved to be the
explosion of loaded shells left in the
launch, which was on fire and blazing
furiously He was unable to save the
boat, and was obliged to row home
against heavy wind. His loss was
practically covered by insurance.
The origin of the fire is mys terry.

afternoon and evening, Nov. Is, with
Lakeside Chapter, No. 27. The open
ing ceremonies of the order were per-
formed by Lakeside Chapter. Miss

hour of social intercourse, the company

did ample justice. After the banquet
and return to the Chapter rooms the
work of the order was exemplified
by Orient chapter. No. Is, Mrs. Flor
ence K. Pierce, w. M. The work of
the degree was followed with interest
by all present, and must have been
highly pleasing and instructive to
the candidates, as it was practically
letter perfect and performed with
ease and grace. After the exempli-
fication of the work it was reviewed
by the Grand Lecturer. The address
of welcome to visiting chapters and
grand officers was given by Mrs. Au-

Opening of New Club Rooms.

The new rooms of the Young Mems
Improvement club in the Hall block
were formally opened for use on Fri
day evening. This event, which has
long been anticipated by the public
in general and club members in par
ticular was, so far as can be deter
| mined, success in every particular.
Though limited to club members and
few candidates, the meeting was
attended by about 80 men, who spent
the evening as suited each best with
cards, billiards, pool or social inter-
course. The program of the evening
consisted of reports of several officers
and committees and an historical
sketch of the club by r. w. Spear,
after which refreshments were
served. With E. j. PrUuty at the pi-
ano and chorus of the whole club a
pleasant hour was spent with music
which attracted nearly as large an
audience on the street as was assem-
bled inside the rooms. These club
rooms have been planned and fur
nished by the house committee of the
club, Messrs Emery, Spear and Bishop,
who were enabled to do it in an apprO-
pirate manner, through the financial
backing afforded by several club mem
bers who, for the good of the club in
particular and for the village also,
were willing to assume a responsible
! ity of over $500. We now have q
Mems club that is an ornament TO the
village and is said to be as finely fur.
nished as any in the state, unless il
be in the larger cities. The member
ship is increasing and there seems nc
reason why in comparatively short
! time the club may not lift its indebt-
edness and continue self supporting.
The original founders of this club
intended it for the good of the vii.
lage and with better quarters. a lar
ger membership and consequently in.
creased interest, we believe the origi
nal intention may be carried out. A
good literary program for the winter
has been arranged for by the enter.
tainment committee and regular meet
ings will be held. 1t is now planned
to hold ladies' night at the club very
soon when the wives and lady friends
of club members will be given an op.
portunity to inspect the new quarters.
There are still several good rooms
for rental to club members. If inter
ested see some member of the house
committee. Special rates for non.
resident members were recently made
by the board of trustees and it is tt
be hoped that many men who reside
elsewhere but are in town often will
take advantage of these rates anc
join the club.

WHAT CURES ECZEMA?

We have had so many inquiries late
" regarding Eczema and other skin
diseases that we are glad to make our
answer public After careful investi-
cation we have found that simple
wash of Oil of Wintergreen as COM
pounded in D. d. D., can be relied
upon. We would not make this state
ment to our patrons, friends and
neighbors unless we were sure of it
and although there are many so called
Eczema remedies sold, we ourselves
unhesitatingly recommend D. D. D.
Prescription,
Because-We know that it gives in
slant relief to that torturing itch.
Because-D. D. D. starts the cure
at the foundation of the trouble.
I Because-It cleanses, soothes and
heals the skin.
Because-It enables Nature to re-
pair the ravages of disease.
Because-The records of ten years OF
complete cures of thousands of the
most serious cases show that D. D. D.
is today recognized as the absolutely
reliable Eczema Cure.
