South Vernon directly to Brattleboro
would be Of far more benefit TO this
town than connecting link by way
Of Hinsdale, n H. It would increase
the value of factory sites on this side
OF the river below Brattleboro and do
away with the possibility of two sta.
lions in town.
All that Brattleboro should require
in this matter is that its own best in
terests be safeguarded. 1t cares not
whether the Central Vermont is agree
ale to the latest plan Of the Boston
l. Maine or not There is one considera-
ton however, that Is OF extreme inn
portance to Brattleboro and that il the
location Of its new station. Regardless
Of the amount eventually expended on
this structure or by what company 1t
is built the station ought to be located
on the west side Of the present tracks
On this account the bill which the Bos-
ton 4 Maine corporation wants passed
should be so worded that the company
viii not have the right to condemn the
proposed site of the new passenger sta
ton. There is plenty OF room through
tile Central Vermont freight yard for
the tracks OF both companies and that
is where they should be laid This may
net be what either company prefers,
but it is something that Brattleboro
should insist upon. Moreover, it is
something which we can get without
lcssening in the slightest the probable
ity Of a Boston q Maine connecting link
from this town TO the Massachusetts
line Brattleboro Reformer.

Little only-Lonely.

Its nice TO be the Only One,
Your mother loves YOU so.
When people want to borrow you
She hates to have You 60;
But when she goes away herself
Or ladies come TO call,
Its lonesome in the garden
And it's lonesome in the hall,
And then Won want Another One
To laugh az you and say,
Little Only, little Lonely,
Never mind Let's play"
It's nice to be the Only One
When fathers home at night,
But it's lonesome in the nursery
When he takes away the light.
You think how cory Two would be-
Another little bed
And another little pillow
And another little head;
You shut your eyes and think and think
Until it's almost true;
Little Only. little Lonely.
Here's a Twin for you!'

A COOP GuEssER. HARVEY IS.

Along with the astute election proph
cts must be placed Col George Harvey
editor Of Harper's Weekly. Shortly be
fore the election, he predicted that
Woodrow Wilson, Democrat, would carry
New Jersey BY 10000. The latest re.
turns give Wilson just about that mum,
Der in a splendid victory. Again, Col
Harvey predicted that Judge Simeon
Baldwin, Democrat, would sweep Con-
necticut by 5000 which the afore.
mentioned Judge did, minus 4 thousand
or so votes. In the third place. Col. Har.
veys prophecy that Harmon, Democrat
would be reelected in Ohio by 25,00C
was near enough to be considered fair.
ly accurate forecast. In Massachusetts,
Col Harvey was too conservative in be-
lieying that Foss election would be
close, while he hit it correctly in New
Hampshire's case by declaring that Bass
would be chosen in close fight This
prophet further asserted that Beveridge
would be beaten in Indiana, and the bal
ance seems now to fall that way Har-
vey's well-known contempt for Roosevelt
led him to the belief that Dix would
carry New York by 100000 and that
figure viii have to be sliced a third,
although the general result was correct.
He also declared that Senator c. NJ De-
pew would have to go, which seems Ger.
tain. The national House, he opined,
would have a majority of forty for the
Democrats, which is rather near the
truth. Thus, taking it all around. the
observing editor OF Harper's Weekly
rather startlingly maintained his reputa-
ton for accurate political forecasts Now
let him give Theodore Roosevelt no more
and no less than he deserves, and his
journal will take on respect as well as
wisdom; and his Peacham, VT, friends
viii wax joyful.

1t is not eighteen years since the Demo-

rejoicing in a great and decisive ma
tional victory. They had then elected,
or already had in Office, governors of
Massachusetts,, Conne~ut, New York,
New Jersey aud Indiana, besides other
western states; they had large northern
representation in both houses of Con-
gress They seemed TO have convinced
the country that their policies were SUI
petior to those of the other side.
But that was, until yesterday, their
last great hour Of triumph. Many Of
the places which they then held have
nevev since been carried by them. In
New York they have named eight GU
bernatorial candidates in succession. on

have vainly struggled for mastery over
eight successive Congresses. They have
