may be mentioned the committee appoint

tees of the senate, and he does work upon
all of them
. A dozen years ago Seaver had not been
mentioned by those making up lists of
strong men, prominent citizens and per-
sons supposed to know what is going on
under the surface. II was less than five
years ago that his name appeared on the
confidential list of men whose knowledge
of conditions warrant them in expressing
an opinion. He drew a place on the ways
and means committee OF the house OF
1908, and though he didn't fret the as
semb'y with talk at that session he was
one OF the members who worked.
Seaver need not be classed as one who
has reached the top of the ladder by any
means. While he probably has no aspira-

The visitor in the gallery of the cham
Der that holds the upper strata OF law
thinkers at the capitol finds it easy to pick
out the celebrities whether they have
face ornamentaton in the shape of hair
or are so diminutive as to barely fill their
chairs There is always a bunch of swivel
necks who attract attention in both houses
and it is these boys from the timber who
oftentimes see their name in print for no
other reason than that it is impossible to
chronicle the doings of sitting without
including bundle of bills introduced by
these jacks-in-the-box who are Johnnies-

material for the committee on revision OF
bills. Every county is afflicted with a
crop of such individuals and when really
transformations member arrives there is
some doubt in the minds of the attaches
of the capitol whether he is up to par or
afraid.
The premier among the transformations
at this session of the assembly comes near

Representative Alderman.

Barre lines.
1t is the state of mind of Superintend-
ent Ferguson of the Vermont Anti-Saloon
league that anyone on the opposite side
is actuated by sordid motives. 1t is the
same state of mind which causes him to
consider all such opponents as suspicious
characters and as deserving of his con-
tempt. For that reason, we find his allu-
sion to Town Representative George E.
Alderman of Vernon as ''the South Ver-
non saloon keeper" to be just about what
might have been expected from the man.
That phrase, unfortunate and misguided
as it appears now that the letter contain
ing it has been made public, is unjust,
in the legislature and fellow-citizens in
Vernon will assert The Ferguson desig-
nation was probably intended to be about
as nasty a fling as he could make at the
Vernon representative. As a matter of
fact, Mr.. Alderman is one of the leading
citizens of the little and scattered town
of Vernon, where he has been located %
years. He is the proprietor of hotel,
the only one in South Vernon, and liv-
cry stable, as well. Besides having this
large money investment in the com,
munity, he is a member of the school
committee, was elected town representa-
tive, and, in general, is considered one
of the prominent men of the place.
Now it so happens that the town of
Vernon voted license; and Mr.. Alderman
as proprietor of the hotel, applied for and
was granted license to sell intoxicating
liquor. That he has conducted the bust
ness with as little cause for criticism as
possible, the residents of the town-most
OF the residents-are prepared to admit
That he is decent, respectable man,
they also testify to. Why, his bitterest
opponents in the public legislative hearing
over the bill to abolish his license, togeth,
er with other saloons on the border, were
stating that they had nothing
whatever against Mr.. Alderman himself.
They again and again declared it was
through no hostility to him that they,
the representatives of the Moody school
in Mortified, Mass, just across the state
line, appeared before the committee, but
rather that they spoke against the bar in
his hotel, while at the same time they
admitted that there was comparatively
little trouble from it, except for the
it might place in the way of
the Moody school boys. The writer of
this article is not personally acquainted
with MIR. Alderman, and hence he was the
more struck by the significance of the re-
peated assertions at the hearing, Just
mentioned, from men who opposed his
business as licensee.
But, in the face of that certificate of
1ecent citizenship, comes this man Fergu.

Millions have been spent to rid eastern
Massachusetts Of the gypsey moth pest
and it is evident that the western part of
the state must pass through all the dis
tress of the eastern section augmented by
the fact that in the western counties there
is three times the tree growth on which the
moths luxuriate. They have advanced far
beyond the limits Of Worcester county
and have been found in Berkshire, Hamp-
shire and Franklin. They have been
traced into Maine and New Hampshire,
and undoubtedly are located already
within the borders of Vermont, although
official notice of their existence in this
state has not yet been made. State
boundaries have no terrors for this
scourge, nor do physical obstacles delay
their march. Vermont may as well expect
to feel the ravages Of the pest the coming
summer and be prepared to battle with
it. That the state authorities realize this
situation is evidenced by the fact prepare
tons are now under way for the distribu.
ton of information regarding the moth
among the border towns, supplemented by
series of addresses on the subject by
practical experts. Let every man inform
himself as fully as possible concerning
the most effectual methods of coping with
this common enemy.

Nothing uncertain about the work Of
Doan's Kidney Pills in Brattleboro. There
is plenty of positive proof of this in the
testimony of citizens Such evidence should

Seaver into believing that he should
caekle every time Lieut-Gov. Slack opens
his mouth to speak. Lewis isn't so old
that he has lost the use of his thorax,
for he boasts only 62 years, but he has
cultivated the habit of keeping his mouth
closed whenever he has nothing to say. Ii
there is member of the legislature who
cannot be charged with posing it is this
same Lewis NJ Though he may be consid.
cred a bit canny when approached by
some political scout with a scheme con-
cealed about his clothes, Senator Seaver
is the easiest man in the world to en-
gage in conversation. He doesn't swell up
ike poisoned pup or display symptoms
of apoplexy when talking. He is handy
with the English language, too, and when
it comes to debating a letter Lewis is
some candy and bit on top of that.
Though Senator Seaver made his first
pass at the big pot in 1908 he has been
one of the ingredients of the broth in Or
ance county since 1904 when he became
a school director in his native town. He
held that job for few years. and has
also been the agent of the town, and isl
at present selectman. This is about all
the information one gets from the arch
ives, for Lewis is modest and does not tell
what he knows and thinks every time

he would doubtless like to come bacl;
again to the assembly, and it's a safe
guess that when he does come back it will
be as member of the lower branch, for
it's there that Lewis NJ. could make him
self felt. Wiliamstown won't make a
mistake in sending the senator back some
time, and if it should decide that he is
the man to represent the town in 1912 it
will be contributing working member Of
the next assembly.
He is a noiseless dresser and though he
doesn't look the part, he is farmer in
addition to being interested in a corpora
ton. He doesn't board at the Pavilion,
but he is mixer and cigar smoke doesn't
send him home with headache Seaver
can be convinced and he has to be before
he votes. II the senate was composed of

er would be reduced to a point that
would make the flimsies look transparent.
To epitomize Seaver, senator from Or.
ange, is to say that he is frictionless
worker who does not spoil the picture by
opening his mouth too often. While some
of the members of both bodies of the as.
sembly crave publicity it is not so with
Lewis NJ. Truly he is avere to anything
like bouquet and if one is handed him
he won't thank the individual that pre-.
sents the posies.

A Warning to Vermont.

st. Johnsbufy Caledonlan.)
A special grand jury in Adams county,
Ohio, has indicted 99S persons for buying
or selling votes in the recent election in
that state and expect that fully 1900
will be indicted before they stop. One of
the most degrading instances was where
mother sold her sons vote for five dol
lars, and there was one farmer who adj
mitted he sold his vote three times in one
day, receiving total of $3.50 for the
three sales. This sounds pretty shocking
to Vermonter when it comes from Ohio,
but it is reported that beer and liquor
were distributed in several large towns,
sacks of -four in some small towns and
unknown thousands of cold cash spent in
the last gubernatorial campaign, and no
state official dare probe the charges, 1t
is not at all probable that 1,500 votes
were bought and sold in one county in
Ohio at first any more than there are in
Vermont at present, but if we allow the
barter in votes to continue unrebuked in
this state we will develop scandal as
disgusting as that of Ohio.
