WHY THE ORGAN ATTACKS ON
GOVERNOR KITCHIN AND SEN.
ATOR MONEY.

The attacks which the News and
Observer, the Democratic organ, has
been making upon Governor Kitchin
and Senator Money, the Democratic
leader in the Senate, have not only
attracted attention, but have aroused
interest as to the purpose behind the
attacks
The organs most recent attack on
Governor Kitchin is what it terms the
shameful Shemwell case" The Or
gan has made not only one attack
upon the Governor, but many at
tacks, for his reprieve of Shemwell.
Everybody knows that the News and
Observer has often most vigorously
defended Democratic Governor and
other Democratic officials for mis-
takes equally or more serious and
grievous than this one. Hence the
speculation as to the meaning of it.
Every one remembers how STRONGLY
the News and Observer championed
the cause of Governor Kitchin In his
race for Governor. He was held I'D
to the people Of the State as a bold,
fearless and able defender of the peo-
Plies rights.
1t Is true that Governor Kitchin
opposed the form of the antitrust
law in subsection A, which seemed
to be hobby of the News and OBJ
server before the Legislature. and
favored instead what he considered
a stronger and safer measure. but
1t is also remembered that the News
and Observer announced itself as sat-
isfied with the antitrust law when
it was passed.
1t Is true also that Governor Kitch-
IN has not apparently attempted to
enforce his own antitrust law since
1t was enacted. and for this failure
the News and Observer would. no
doubt have a just grievance, but If
mat Is so. why does 1t not state the
real ground of its grievance?
The ground which the News and
Observer give for attacking Senator
Money Is that he has put several
members of his family on the nav
roll since he became Democratic
leader in the Senate. It is notice.
able, however, that the News and OBJ
server has not given Senator Money
the benefit of the explanation which
ne has made for his course. His ex-
briefly, is that he has been
almost blind for number of years.
and that his wife. and his sons and
mis- daughter have had to read to him
constantly and do all OF his work.
and In order to perform his addition
al work as minority leader, it was
necessary to have them continue to
do his work. and hence they were
put on the payroll to fill places BRO
vided for as help for the minority
leader.
This sis certainly a plausible ex-
cuse, whether it is fully satisfactory
Dr. not, and certainly everybody
knows tina. the News and Observer
has often defended other Democrats

THE MILESTONE AROUND THE
PARTY'S NECK.

In another column We publish a
Washington letter clipped from the
Charlotte ObRrver. That article
contains some most important and
sig 1ificant facts.
1t states that Immediately after
the last election a committee of
prominent business man like Con-
been Democrats but who believe that
the policies OF the National Repub-
lican party are best for the country
was formed in Charlotte. 1t further
states that this committee met and
then determined to start an organiza-
ton to nominate and elect some
prominent bushes man like Con-
gresham Morehead In that District
for Congress at the next election.
The article further states that the
committee is now discouraged and is
about ready to abandon their prof.
ect, and that this is due chiefly to the
effort which the patronage machine
crowd in North Carolina has made to
discredit Morehead. and also to the
TACT that the President has permitted
that old machine crowd to dictate
the patronage as Of old and to use IT
to try to defeat the denomination
and reelection of Morehead.
We regret to say that we feel that
there is much truth in this article.
and 1t would be very discouraging to
those who want to build up the Re-
publican party If there was no rem
edy for 1t. But the rank and file of
the Republican party have the rem
cay In their own hands, and if they
Will only go to the primaries and see
that patriotic representative Repub-
Hcans are sent to the next State Con-
Vention, instead of leaving the con-
troll OF the primaries to the pie coun-
ter crowd. then the next State Con-
Vention will re-organize the party
and put it in competent hands.
we publish this article from the
Charlotte Observer in order that the
rank and file may see the curse that
Is blighting the party, and knowing
the evil, be able to intellisently an
ply the remedy. If the next Renub-
hcan State Convention will elect 2

ronage in the State will be given
mot to those who are professional,
ple-hunters and believe in a small
party and a patronage machine). but
TO the best men in each locality. and
men who will use their efforts to
build up the party.
When once this is done. the rart
and file of the Republican party will
take courage to fight as never before
and then men like Morehead (instead
OF postmasters) will be nominated
Tor Congress in every district and
thousands, and tens of thousands of
men, will leave the Democratic marty
and support our candidates for Con-
gress as they did in Morehead's dis
tr1ct at the last election. The party
can, and must, head toward victory
out the first step to victory is to get
rid of the old pie-counter machine
which is to-day a milestone around
its neck.
Let every good Republican put his
shoulders to the wheel and 1t will he
done.

IN MEMORY OF REV. c. o. DAY
Appreclatlve Tribute Adopted In conare-
gational Church Sunday Morning
Read by His only Contemporary.

A tribute to the memory of Rev.
Charles o. Day was read and adopted
by a unanimous vote at the morning
service in the Congregational church
Sunday. Rev. f. Q. S. OsgOod, pastor
of the Unitarian church, occupied the
Houghton, and in his prayer he referred
very feelingy to Rev. Mr.. Day. At the
close of the last hymn he asked the
congregation to be seated, and he then
read the following tribute:
THE members of the Brattleboro East
church and society have learned with
profound sorrow of the sudden death of
Reverend Charles Orrin Day, for whom
we hoped there remained many years Of
service in his profession.
"Our minds go back over his thir-
teen years pastorate here, and we re-
member his loyalty to this church and
people, the enduring friendship and SYM
pathy that existed between pastor and
people, the broadness of his religious
views his uplifting ministry and his
usefulness as a citizen. We shall always
love to recall his genial nature, his ra-
diant face, his untiring devotion to the
sick and sorrowing. Surely his life and
teaching were constant inspiration to
a better life.
Let these lines be entered upon the
church records, copies thereof be pub
lished in the local newspapers and sent
to Mr.. Days son and daughter"
Before action was taken on the memo
NAL Rev. Mr., Osgood spoke of his per-
sonal acquaintance with Rev. Mr.. Day
and Of the cordial relations which existed
between them. With the exception OF
Rev. Mr.. Osgood none Of the present
pastors of the Brattleboro churches
were here contemporaneous with Rev
Mr.. Day.
The funeral services were held in the
home Of Miss Frances G. Hull, a rela.
tive of Mrs. Day. in Catskill, N. Y, Fri
day at $50 o'clock and the burial tool
place in the village cemetery. Members
OF the Brattleboro church sent flowers.

FAST TENNIS THIS YEAR
North End Club Is Already Planning
for a Series Of Matehes-Courts to be
Greatly improved.

The North End Tennis club plans this
season to make its courts the best in
the state. The services of an expert
will be secured to put the courts in first
class condition, new and suitable stops
will be erected, a small shelter will be
built for the use of visiting players and
a small grand stand built for the accomo-
dation of spectators. committee will
be appointed at the annual meeting,
whose duty it will be to carry out this
program. A captain and manager of the
team will be elected, who will arrange
for a schedule of matches with other
towns and have them announced in ad-
vance. A caretaker will keep the courts
and grounds in good condition. The
club wishes this year to arrange for
more matches with other teams and II is
assured that some fast players will visit
here. 1t is the intention of the club to
hold an invitation tournament and a
junior tournament. 1t is the plan to give
Brattleboro a chance to see some fast
tennis. Last year the team made an en-
viable record. Keene was defeated de-
cisively for the first time in the history
of matches between the two towns. Out
of IL matches played seven were won,
one was lost and three were tied In
order to make the improvements con-
templated an expenditure of at least $500
will be necessary. In circulating a sub
scription paper early this week $2s5 was
raised and it is thought that the needed
amount will be secured without difficulty

growing part of Canada will be opened by


the route"
To this dispatch the Republican ap-
pended observations as follows: THE
Brattleboro news some time ago reported
the presence of surveying parties for the
Boston & Maine in that vicinity and be-
tween Windsor and White River juno
ton. 1t is news Of large local interest
that the new lines are to be built. The
Grand Trunks aggressive policy through
its ownership of the Central Vermont
and control thereby of the New London
Northern road seems to be back Of this
counter aggressive movement on the part
Of the New Haven through control of
the Boston & Maine. II these two pieces
of road up in Vermont are actually built
we may certainly then expect a Grand
Trunk extension from Palmer to Provi-
dence under the charter just obtained
from the Rhode Island Legislature,
and then there WIN be "things doing"
in the railroad line up and down the
Connecticut river. If the New Haven
builds a line of it's own from South YER
non to Brattleboro, 1t must evidently fol-
low the New Hampshire side OF the river;
while from Windsor to White River juno
ton it can parallel the Central Vermont
on the Vermont side.
What the Grand Trunk mas to do to
stablish a through line of its own down
the river is more difficult. 1t must build
not only from Windsor to Bellows Falls,
presumably on the Vermont side; but
from the latter place to Brattleboro,
which would apparently compel 1t to
cross the river at Bellows Falls and go
down on the New Hampshire side, cross
| ing the river again at Brattleboro to
reach that place and to get on to the
| New London Northern tracks. These are
not only longer distances than the New
Haven would have to build over, but
much more difficult and costly distances
to overcome. AS is well known the New
| Haven, through the Boston & Maine and
| the latter through the Connecticut River
| railroad lease, holds possession Of the
| Vermont Valley road from Brattleboro to
Bellows Falls, and of the Sullivan County
road from the latter place to Windsor,
| following the Ne wHampshire side of the
| river. With the two constructions from
South Vernon to Brattleboro, only about
eight miles, and from Windsor to the
| Junction, only about Is miles, the New
| Haven of Boston & Maine would have a
| line of its own all the way from this
city to Sherbrooke, p. Q. on the other
| hand the Grand Trunk would also have,
| with the mentioned constructions, a line
| OF its own from Canada to New London
and Providence, and then possibly to
| Boston by a branch to be constructed

Dogs, Deer and Sheep.
IBennington Banner.l

The Barre Times advocates a law per-
hitting anybody to shoot a dog found
chasing a deer, Vermont had such a
law once but the dog owners forced its
repeal. AS a matter OF fact deer do not
suffer very seriously from dogs except
during the spring months before the doe
bear their young. The rest of the year
the deer can generally take care Of them
selves. II dogs could be restrained from
the first Of March to the first Of June or
rendered liable to a dose of cold lead II
found at large and worrying deer during
that time it would be all that is necessary
to protect deer. The case of dogs and
sheep is an entirely different matter. If
the farmers prefer dogs to sheep they
have the privilege and the power for
they generally have a clear majority in

MORE RAILROAD TALK
Official Statement Issued by New

Directors In New York Saturday Decld-
ed to Complete Route to sherbrooke
independently Of Central Vermont
There has been more talk this week in
railroad circles relative to the plan OF
the Boston & Maine Railroad company
which 1t is generally understood is under
the control of the New York, New Haven
g. Hartford railroad company, to build
track from Brattleboro to connect with
its Ashuelot branch at Hinsdale, N. H.
and a track to Windsor from Whlte
River Junction, thereby avoiding the ne
cessity of using two short connecting
links owned by the Central Vermont
Railway company, as told in The Phoenix
last Friday. An interesting special dis
patch was sent from New Haven, Conn.,
to the Springfield Republican Monday
night, which is made doubly interest
ing by the statement of President Luz
cius futile Of the Boston & Maine COM
pany, which is printed in another col
umn in this paper The special dispatch
was as follows:
IAN official statement issued by the
New Haven road tonight admits that the
directors at their meeting in New York
last Saturday decided to go ahead and
complete the route through Springfield

province Of Quebec Two stretches OF
track remain to be built before trains
can be run over the whole line as the
New Haven road. One line lies between
Brattleboro and South Vernon. VT, the
other between Windsor and White River
Junction, VT. Surveys were reported as
begun on these at Saturdays meeting anc
il was stated that the work of construc'
ton will be begun before fall. At present
the road is forced to run between Brat
