Although giving credit to the New
Hampshire legislature for killing some
measures which promised to be useless,
the Concord Monitor is inclined to chide
for failure thus far to redeem the plat
form pledges Of either party, Says the
contemporary: "But the fact remains
that at the opening of the ninth week
OF the session not one platform pledge
of either party has been redeemed BY
the men elected to Office on those plat
forms. But the people of the
state think, and with reason, that it is
time for these measures to advance TO
enactment" We fully appreciate the
anguish OF soul which Is hidden under
that mild reproof, because there was
scarcely newspaper in Vermont which
did not take occasion few weeks ago
to remark something similar to the above
statement concerning the Vermont legis-
latme,

THE TRoLLEY cAR DERArLMENr

Perhaps nearly all passengers on the
Barre q Montpelier Traction company
line have at one time or another thought
Of the possibilities Of derailment when
their ear was rounding one Of the two
sharp curves in the north part of the city,
particularly at the curve nearer the Ber-
lin line, Therefore, they were prepared
to hear of the accident last evening,
which, however, turned out so fortunate
ly to the occupants OF the car. But,
hazardous as the curves may seem to the
ordinary person, they are, nevertheless,
safe enough under normal conditions.

Roy Shackett, an empleye at the Brat
tleboro retreat, while thawing dynamite
on the golf grounds, decided that he
would adopt a plan Of his own rather
than follow instructions. He had been
directed to use steam, but tried a direct
application of fame from a small fire.
The dynamite exploded while Roy wasn't
looking, but he felt the jar. No one
was injured, but a considerable quantity
Of the explosive went up in smoke.

later went West to grow up with the
country Grand Forks, N, d., was the
place he chose for that adventure, but
q year OF almost unbroken rain drove
him back TO New England, and he hung
out his single in Newport.
Soon after that the political instincts
of his family asserted themselves, and
he ran for district attorney. Immedi-
ately after his election he established
his reputation by prosecuting charge
of criminal libel against the editor of a
! Newport newspaper In 1855 he was
elected to the legislature for one term,
and for the next two seasons was re-
porter Of decisions for the supreme court
of Vermont.
Student Of Railroading.
Early in the nineties, Mr.. Prouty be.
gan his preparations for his present dis
tinction. He became general solicitor
for the Rutland railroad and attorney
for the Vermont Central Eagerly, but
without yielding any Of the conservative
habits OF thought and action that were
! his by inheritance, he began his inquiry
into the theory Of railroading. He was
content with nothing but entire under
standing Of every problem that confront
ed him.
When W. G. Yeazey's term as member
OF the interstate commerce commission
expired in 1896, Mr. Prouty received lit
orally the unanimous backing OF his
state for the succession. Senator Proc
tor suggested his name 10 President
Cleveland. Senator Morrill, urged his
appointment and Representative Grout
worked with him. Former Senator Ed
munds and E. J. Phelps, former minister
to Great Britain, personally Endorsed
him. No man, II is said, ever sought
preferment at the capital with more
united support.

New York, was his classmate at Dart.

say this to Mr.. Cleveland
"Prouty was the most brilliant man

prize for which he could be candidate,
and / am not exaggcrating when tell
you that the minute il was known that
Prouty was out after il everyone else

his nomination TO the Senate. and the
Senate lost no more in confirming it,

listened more attentiyely than he did to

"Let the Public Walk"
A characteristic anecdote is told of
Mr.. PTouty's examination OF Milton H,
Smith, president OF the Louisville &
Nashville railroad Smith had been ar
guing before him that the railroad had
q supreme right to fix disputed rate
and that ended it.
What remedy has man who can't
afford 20 pay that rate?" asked Mr.,

response.
