The ST. Adams Messenger says
with more truth than fiction that it
is the element of New York specu-
lators who are crying out against
the Roosevelt doctrine. The times
are not prosperous unless they have
more money than they know what
to do with and unless it comes to
them faster than any, legitimate
business could bring it to them,
therefore, they do not like this man
who breaches that what it is dis
honest for a man to do as an indi-
vidual is dishonest for a corporation
to do. But New York is after all
but a small part of this great nation
and there are many to be found who
believe in the Roosevelt doctrine of
honesty or the country would, in
deed, be far along on it's road to
decline.

The Mortified News says:

:" 1t is figured out that Orange county
falling off in population under the 'new
census will result in the loss of one state
senator and that Chittenden county will
gain this senatorship because of its in
creased number of inhabitants While
this change may be necessary under the
present method of apportionment, never
theless, it can hardly be of general adj
vantage to the State to cut down the leg
islative representation in successful farm
ing county and add to a more cosmopolitan
community like Burlington, which is prac-
tically what this will do"
Well, of course, we are not pleased
to lose aNmember in the senate, but
figures are stubborn things.

The westerners have the boom
habit SO bad that they even boom
their census figures, which may get
them into trouble with their Uncle
Samuel as he doesn' t care to have
his census figures padded. There
are said to be three kinds of lies of
which statistics are the greatest.
Here is a case where it looks as if
the saying were true.

Miss Edith NJ Wills is temper
ance worker in Boston, but she has
been up in Vermont & a speaker at
our recent Sunday School conven-
ton held in Rutland. She has
studied this great question and she
says that cider mills are as prejudi-
cial to public temperance as are
wineries and breweries. We are
used to the cider mill, it seems
almost like any other kind of mill,
but now we stop to think of it there
are cider drunkards as well as those
who produce a jag on other stimu-
lants. Quite likely she is right and
it would be well for all who like
good old cider to stop to consider
few points when they are hurting
their anger against-well, say Mil
waukee, for instance.

A millionaire banker of Chicago
recently came to Vermont by auto.
The roads that he found here he said
averaged better in this state than
did those mother states over which
his route lay. He advised US to
stick to gravel roads and, judging
from the expressed sentiments
within our borders and the work
which Commissioner Gates is doing,
this is the best judgment of the
natives " themselves. Mr.. Gates
may well feel complimented as he
hears these views which commends
his own judgment and, the work
he has thus far accomplished.
Nevertheless, we still have much to
do before our goodroads campaign
is finished.

The Montpelier Journal urging
the legislature to get down to bust
ness and advising them that this is
the surest way to win commenda-
ton from the state will be backed
by most of the state. When there
is no great stress Of necessary bust
ness, we still like the idea of Thanks
giving adjournment. Probably we
are better off without too much
tinkering with our laws. Let s have
a few changes that are reallyneeded,
and the fewer new laws the better.

So the last week of October was
not an open one for hunters, the
Governors special proclamation sus-
pending it for the present. The
season has been so dry that it seems
but ordinary precaution to keep the
woods from being overrun with
hunters. The hunters have not
complained as the warm weather
would have made the keeping of
the meat nearly impossible and a
consequent loss of thousands of dol
lars would have resulted. 1t is
probable that the weeks sport is
but postponed as the Legislature will
undoubtedly provide for the hunters
by a special act, when there is still
less danger of forest fires.

Tnefacts that Mary Boyle o. Reilly
unearthed about the baby farms in
New Hampshire are enough to make
that legislature sit up and notice
these Infamous institutions to the
extent of making laws for their
supervision, and provide for punish
ment of these inhuman house
mothers.

New Hampshire must have rubbed
her eyes when President Mellens'
letter dropping the railroad rate
suit was received. His dictum that
the railroads, having accepted the
benefits, should not seem to avoid
the objections was all right when
accompanied by acts in sympathy
with the words. AS he says "the
public very properly objects to any
rates, whether reasonable or not,
that it believes to be in violation of
a statute" If the railroads and
the state run their affairs according
to this principle, a new era has
dawned in state which has suffered
under a powerful railroad lobby
The merger might have been worsel

1t wouldn't besurprising if Mason
S. Stone should be found exactly in

The Legislature is now at that

thicker than flies in summer, but the
killing time will come a little later.

that episode of his budding genius

CONTESTS.

The outlook for athletics grows bet ter each year. Prof Cash will be a substantial addition in this line. Wes- ley Dimes, Leonard Brooks, Orrin Brooks, Eearl Brooks. Ben Harris Howard Hanna, Walter Pine, Mar iano Martinez, Joy Ettingsen and some new students will be aspirants for the base ball team The teams record last year was good in track events. They won third place and this was their yirst years work. The Tempe High by defeating the Mesa base ball team made it possible for the Normal, one of our home teams to win the cup. Had not this defeat been placed against the Mesa team. there would have been no need of the last two games between the Normal and Mesa, as Mesa would have had the cup on the percentage basis without playing the last two games The Tempe High must be given full credit for determining the result of the series.
 The High chool made a fair show ing in the commercial contest and will very probably do much better in the same contest this year
 In the territorial declamatory con test our school showed well and with Miss Rodkey in charge of elocution this year, we will have no fears in that line.

STR|NGING WIRE Oh
 THE OVERLAND LINE
A Force of a Dozen Men Working
 This Way From Phoenix.

Fred Patterson, formerly with the Consolidated Telephone and Telegraph company, is now foreman with the Overland company. At the present time he has a force of a dozen or SO men engaged in stringing wire be- tween here and Phoenix, working this way. The work has reached the Heard ranch and this coming week the wire will probably be strung on into town if there are no delays. On an average of two and a half miles a day have been strung so far though the other side of the Heard ranch, good deal of time was lost on account of trees. Much of the time part of the force had to be kept in advance trimming trees and brush out of the way of the wires. From now on into town it is thought that better time will be made as there are fewer trees to be contended with The men are now making their head quarters ere and are taking their meals at the Tom Ping restaurant.

THE FACULTY.

The teaching force this year will be rather strong. One of the new teachers is Miss Ida Helen Rodkey who will have charge of elocution and music and aside from those two sub jects, she will work one half of each day in the grammar school, Miss Rodkey comes well recommend ed. Below is one of the many press reports that have been received re- garding her:
 Miss ROdkey possesses great dram atic skill, together with that indefin- able something called personal mag netism which enables her to present. in most forcible manner. those vivid impersonations and character sketch es which so charm her audiences. If the success of an artist is the crea- ton of an illusion, of making an audience see and respond to the characters, then Miss Rodkey'- be- longs in the front rank The expres- sion and feeling with which her selections are rendered-passing rap idly from merriment to pathos-proves that she more than entertains, she fascinates, and therefore abundantly merits the great success she is achiev- ing before the public"
 Chas c. Cash will have charge of the athletics. Mir Cash is grad uate of the Emporia State normal of Kansas and has had a great deal of work in the Pittsburg manual train ing school of the same state. He has excellent credentials.
