Mr.. Foss' bill, House sc, which has
been introduced for the benefit of the
Northern Traction company is in the
hands of the committee on corpora
tions. 1t asks for reissueing of the
charter to the company. 1t appears
that the time in which the annual
fees to the State for continuance of
the charter had expired when Harry
Amey made the payment and that
Commissioner of Taxes, Cushman,
would not grant the company H.
cense and therefore the matter has
to be taken up under the head of a
new bill.
The proposal Of the company is
construction of a railroad from
Island Pond to Montpelier via New
port and Hardwick,
1t isgenarally expected that unless
objection is made by the commits
sioner of takes that the charter will
be granted to the company.

Another measure which the people
of the county are interested in, and
should appear before the committee
on highways and bridges, is House,
33, asking for an appropriation for
construction of road from Brighton
to Norton going through a part of
Morgan.

1t has been with some anxiety that
the people of the southern part of
the county have been watching for
the results of the findings of the
committee on elections in the House
of Representatives regarding the
seatinglof the member from Guildhall
and on Thursday morning the COM
mittee made their report but they
did not recommend seating any per-
sons and left that to the opiniOu Of
the House. This has been a long
drawn out affair in some ways and
an expensive one to the contestants
for it involved getting good deal
of material together to prove the
case. The committees report fol-
lows and will be interesting to every
reader in this section.
The contest in the election of rep
resentative in the town Of Guildall
respectively reported that they have
considered all evidence placed at
their disposal and at this time are
ready to announce their decision in
the matter.
The committee have held three
meetings at which evidence has been
given the committee at each meeting
in the form or testimony either by
personal appearance or dispositions
of persons who were present at a
hearing that occurred in Guildhall
Sept. 16 and II of the present year.
The committee find from the tes-
timony plaed at their disposal that
the election in itself was not in
accord with the usual custom of
holding such legal meetings, that the
testimony shows no fraud in the
way in the votes, as cast in the
election nor in the marking of these
votes, that the committee found the
contest was over the validity of five
votes which were alleged to have
been cast on the first ballot. The
committee found that following the
first ballot Walter l.. Ball claimed
the election but that a second ballot
was taken upon the direction of the
constable and during the casting of
the second ballot that Mr.. Ball re-
ouested that his constituents cease

House bill, 27, introduced by Mr..
Cameron of Norton, surely interested
all the people of the county, 1t pro-
vides for an increase in the salary of
the States Attorney. 5000 per year.
While the work in Essex County is
not as burdensome as in some others,
yet it is requiring more time than it
used to and there should be suitable
compensation for the work.

The committee on temperance will |
give public hearing on Senate bill
lS, which provides for State wide no
license if majority of the towns so
vote at the March meeting and if
majority do not so vote then only
those towns voting license will have
them. The act in either instance will
not effect Essex County to any great
extent.

Voting Contest

The big prize voting contest is at
tracing more attention every day,
so as incentive to all contestants we
have decided to give the following
special votes:
For every seven new subscriptions
1900 extra, making a total of 5000.
These subscriptions need not be for
one party for seven years, or for
seven different people for one year,
but must be new subscriptions for
seven years, and must be handed in
all at one time.
For every seven renewal subscrip-
tions 5000 extra, making total of
$500. These may be for seven diff
ferent people, or all for one, but
must be all renewals and must be
handed in all at one time.
The above special offer will hold
good until the first count on October
26th at which time votes will be
counted by the judges who will
award the SO in gold to the con-
testant who receives the largest
number of votes up to the tirstcount
The ballot box will close promptly at
4 o'clock p. M, on Saturday Octo-
ber 26.
Remember the $40 in gold to be
given to the contestant having the
highest number of votes on October
26th is special prize offered by the
HERALD. 1t will in no way effect
the standing of the winner of the
contest.
A few contestants thought that the
winning of the $40 would effect their
votes for the piano. 1t will not. All
votes found in the box on Saturday,
October &c, will be included in the
final count, which will decide the
winners of the piano and other
prizes.
Remember that each subscription
you receive--either new, renewal or
back-will get a certain number OF
votes with each year and those votes
with an extra bonus vote also.
All votes to be counted must be in
by a o'clock Saturday, Oct. 26.
Get busy and vote for your choice.
The contest will be conducted square
ly and no partiality will be shown to
any one. Do it now and help some
one reap the benefits of the liberal
offer.
The nominations so far madeare as
follows:

LOOKING BACKWARD
It is 20 years since there has
been a real fight for the Repub-
lican nomination. From the
standpoint of mere entertain
ment the present scrap beats any
thing since 1880, and millions of
voters have been born and have
grown to manhood since that
hard fought battle between Grant
and Blaine, when both went down
before the dark horse Garfield.
Behold the tame years which
marked the last five nominations:
1908-Teddy handed the nom
nation to Big Bill Taft as a fell
low treats his girl to a glass of
soda,
190-Teddy had a walk-over
Tor denomination, nothing to 1t
but the shouting.
900-Everybody concurred in
the denomination of the placid
Mckinley.
18o6-Mark Hanna landed Nc
Kinley without much trouble,
Tom Reel getting many cheers
and few delegates.
1892-Benjamin Harrison re-
nominated after a little breeze
over Blaine, who had passed be-
yond his day.
There was some excitement in
1884, when Blaine and Logan
came uppermost in the conven-
ton, and a rather interesting

PROBABLE that only candidates for pop
ular elective Offices, and not those
elected by the legislature, will be
voted for.
The primary is popular with the
masses of the people, and it Is not
believed that the new committee will
consider any other plan for making
nominations. 1t has been charged by
the vertrees minority that the har-
r1ony movement was merely for the
purpose of substituting conven-
ton for g primary, but this charge is
groundless, in view Of the strong like
linood of holding the state primary.
The convention to be held on May
Is is merely for the nominating Of
electors, the naming of delegates to
the national convention, the selection
Of candidate for judge of the su-
preme court and a candidate for
Judge of the court Of appeals and the
naming Of new state committee.
Until the convention is held Under
the terms Of the editors plan, which
has been ratified by majority Of the
two state committees, party affairs
will be directed by the harmony COM
nittee, to be composed Of thirteen
members of the independent commit
Tee and thirteen members of the reg
illar committee. Should a tie vote
result twenty-seventh man will be
named to cast the deciding vote.
The harmony committee will be- or
ganized here next Wednesday, at
which time the Barton committee viii
meet and rescind its convention plan
There is some speculation as to who
will be the chairman of the harmony
committee, but the indications are
that there will be no real contest for
the honor.
Harmony headquarters are now
open at room 5, Maxwell House, with
Henry Morrow, ]. D. G. Morton, Ed
ward Albright and others in charge.
After the meeting of the harmony
on Wednesday it is proba-
Bile that those named at that time to
actively direct the campaign win
take charge and will direct a strong
fight to bring the two factions still
closer together It is predicted that
the presidential contest will far to-
ward arousing democratic enthusiasm
IN Tennessee, and that following the
Baltimore convention the regulars
md Independents will be found work
ing side by side for the presidential
nominee. The state campaign will
no doubt be short, and will come dur.
ng the late summer months.
