A Distinguished Vermonter.

Standing out prominently in the
galaxy of the present Who's Who in
the United States is Charles A.
Prouty, whose untiring efforts for
the past Is years have brought ma
tional recognition to him as one of
the best friends the country has had
in the placing of the Interstate Com
merce Commission into it's present
position of usefulness.
Mr.. Prouty is Vermonter by birth
and still retains his home in Newport.
He never inherited any distinguished
name so if he is placed by his success
into the realm of plutocracy, he has
the advantage of having peen born in
democracy.
When he undertook his work with
the commission in 1896, the depart
ment was farce. 1t was a delight
full lazy mans job then. Junketing
around the country made it possible
for the members of the commission to
find out abuses by railroads upon
shippers and these were reported to
Congress since that was the method
of disposition then. But this is what
constituted the farce. Nothing salts
factory was ever done until articles
written upon the subject created a
public sentiment against discrimina-
ton in freight rates and for the in
crease in power of the commi ssion.
When the commission did get this
power, something definite resulted.
1t was the increase of the power of
this body that effectually stopped the
attempt recently made to raise
freight rates. The railroads, long the
greatest buccaneers that ever prac-
ticed wholesale brigandage, were
forced to back water. simply because
this department of the Federal gov
eminent had had powers vested in it
which were far-reaching. By his
authorship of the decision which dis
allowed the railroads from increasing
freight rates, Mr.. Prouty has proved
himself one of the most fearless and
able of public servants.
And he is native of Vermont-ap-
preciated by all Vermonters who
know him.-Windsor Journal.

Sure to Come.

The development of the great as
bestos deposits in Eden and Lowell is
going right on in spite of the handi-
cap of lack of transportation facili-
ties. We believe that this will be
changed within the next three years
and that the Canadian Pacific, that is
seeking an entrance into New York,
will form an alliance with the D. &
H., that is seeking market for the
coal mines in its field in eastern Yer
mont and Canada. The road from
North Troy to Rutland through Low
ell, Eden, Morristown, Stowe, Water
bury, Moretown, Waitsfeld, etc., is
bound to be uilt.-Morrisville Mes.

The agricultural and industrial de-
partment of Lyndon institute. pro-
NOTED largely by T. N. Vail. has is
sued its second catalog. A. R. Mer-
rill, director, makes this statement in
connection with the catalog: "This
school has been in existence only
since last October; but from the work
accomplished and the interest shown
by the students, we believe that it is
filling an important place in Yer
mont's educational system. We want
to aid all classes of boys to a good ed
ucation along agricultural and indus
trial lines but we are especially anx-
ious that the boys throughout the
state who are financially unable to go
away to school, should become &C
quainted with this institution. We
are offering a limited number of
scholarships, whereby poor or needy
boys may receive an education, pro-
viding they are willing to work for it.
and we can furnish the work neces-
sary to enable them to do this"

Breed Better Children.

What about the need of home mis-

added to the long list last week,

We still insist that there is work to

Convert nothing. The true cure is
to breed better Not this case par
ticularly but most of those crimes in
retired rural communities which have
startled Vermont so frequently late
years are the natural result of the
weakening of the human stock of
sparsely populated districts through
the emigration of the more active and
ambitious. The true cure is to over
come the effects of stagnation. De-

There is a great field for the en-
dustrial Bureau" established by Presi-
dent Mellen of the New England
Lines. If, one-half the enterprises
are pushed. along the lines this bu-
reau outlines, the service will be of
inestimable value to New England.
Judged from a layman's standpoint
the Vermont farmer can we'll afford
to heed the ''raise what you feed" cry
of some of our best agriculturists
The Vermont farmer, more than the
farmer of most eastern states, has
been paying heavy tolls to the west

at least he could make money on by
raising himself.

STATE FAvORS
RAMSEY PARK
Lyndon A. Smith, Assistant
Attorney General, Inspects
Tract Near Here.
MAY PURCHASE 1T NEXT WEEK.
Mrs. SchmeicheI Stands in
Way of Consummation
Asking High Price.
MAY PURCHASE 1T NEXT WEEK.

Lyndon A. Smith, assistant attor-
ney general approves the purchase
of the tract of land on the Ramsey
creek to be known as the Alexander
Ramsey state park. Mr.. Smith was
in Redwood Falls Wednesday and
went with Fl. M. Hitchcock and HI.
A. Baldwin to inspect the land.
Afterwards he said it was entirely
appropriate to set it apart as a state
park. He praised the natural beau
ty of the scenery and spoke highly
of the patriotic motives that prompt
ed the effort to establish the park.
SURVEY TO BE MADE.
A survey Of the tracts to be
bought is to be made by County Sur
veyor D. L. Bigham and the data is
to be sent to the attorney general.
Immediately thereafter it is expect
ed the negotiations for at least a
part of it will be contaminated. 1t
is not impossible that the purchase
may be made next week.
Meanwhile Mrs. Schmeichel stands
in the way of the desires of the pro-
moters Of the enterprise. She owns
five acres of land within the des-
cribed territory for which she asks
$500. The land was taken by her
on trade and it is said by those
from whom she secured the land
that it cost her about 5000, In view
of this it is felt that her price is high
and it is likely the tract will be left
out Of the original purchase. Con.
demnation proceedings may be in.
stituted later to secure it.
COMPROMISE MAY BE REACHED.
1t is admitted that Mrs. Schmeich'
ell has right to ask whatever she
pleases for the land and it may be
that compromise will be effected.
AS it is the state which is wishing
to buy it will be possible to secure
the land by having it appraised and
condemned for state purposes.
Those who have visited the site OF
the new park are unanimous in de-
claring the scenery the most beauti
full in the state, not accepting that
to be found in the. Itasca park
When properly improved with roads
and made accessible the park will be
one of the leading attractions Of
Redwood Falls and doubtless will be
the mecca for a.great many tourists

My Body and |.

got this body in the Fleshng Shop
When it was small and pudgy-like and red;
No teeth it had nor could it stand erect
A fuzzy down grew spare upon it's head
At sight of it the neighbors stood and laughed,
And tickled it and logged it up and down;
Then some one put it in little cart,
And wheeled it gaily through the gaping
town.
When it grew bigger and could walk and run,
wet it in the pond below the hill.
Or took it to a building called a school,,
And there had to keep it very still.
And later, when its muscles stronger grew,
made it sow and reap to get its grain,
And tanned it in the summers fiercest suns,
And toughened it with wind and cold and
rain,
1t served to keep my friend, the Earth,
1t helped me well to get from place to place,
! And then, perhaps, tiny bit of me
Has sometimes worked out through its hands
and face!
How long I've had it! Longer than it seems
Since first they wrapped it in linen clout,
And now tbs shriveled, patched and breaking
down
guess, forsooth, that have worn it out!
And l? Oh, bless you! / am ever young.
| A soul ne'er ages-is not bent nor gray.
And when the body breaks and crumbles down
The Fleshing Shop is just across the way!

LincoIn's Fayorite Hymn.

o, why should the spirit of mortal be proud?
Like swift-feeting meteor, fast flying cloud.
flash of the lightning, a break of the wave,
He passeth from life to his rest in the grave.
The leaves of the oak and the willow shall fade.
Be scattered around, and together be laid;
AS the young and the old, the low and the high,
Shall crumbe to dust and together shall lie.
The infant mother attended and loved,
The nc tier that infants affection who proved,
The father that mother and infant who best
EACH all are away to that dwelling of rest
The maiden whose brow, on whose cheek, in whose
eye,
Shone beauty and pleasure, her triumphs are by,
And alike from the minds of the living erased
Are the memories of mortals who loved her and
praised.
The head of the king that the sceptre hath borne,
The brow of the priest that the mtre hath worn
The eye of the sage, and the heart of the brave.
Are hidden and lost in the depths of the grave.
The peasant, whose lot was to and to reap,
The herdsman, who climbed with his goats up the
steep;
The beggar who wandered in search of his bread
Have faded away like the grass that we tread
So the multitude goes. like the flower or weed
That withers away to let others succeed;
So the multitude comes even those we behold
To repeat every tale that has often been told.
For we are the same our fathers have been
We see the same sights that our fathers have seen
We drink the same stream, we see the same sum-
And run the same course our fathers have rum
|
think,
From the death we are shrinking our fathers did
shrink;
To the life clinging our fathers did cling
But it speeds from all like the bird on the wing
They loved-but the story we cannot unfold;
They scorned, but the heart of the naughty is cold
They greved, but wall from their slumbers
will come;
They joyed. but the tongue of their gadness is
dumb.
They died,-ah! they died;-we things that are
now,
That walk on the turf that lies over their brow
And make in their dwelling transient abode
Meet the things that they met on their pilgrimage
road.
Yea, hope and dependency, pleasure and pain,
Are mingled together in sunshine and rain;
And the smile and the tear, and the song and the
dirge
Still follow each other like surge upon surge
IT'S the wink of an eye; it's the draught of E
! breath,
From the blossom of health to the paleness Of
death,
From the gilded saloon to the bier and the shroud
o, why should the spirit of mortal be proud?
