Some logs, cut at least one hun
dred years ago, and used in the
building recently razed on the
corner of Water and Second
streets, were found to be in per-
feet condition, and are being US
ed in the new bank building now
being erected. The logs are so
sound that they ring when struck
by workmen's tools, are free of
knots andwould cost considerable
money if purchased now.

Witt Mason arrived home Mon
day from State College for his
summer vacation. Being a true
American athletic, neither steam
roads, trolleys, nor automobiles,
had any attraction for him, as he
turned his face homeward; but
the covering of the distance of
eighty miles afoot, was just the
veriest sport. Saturday after
noon he walked from State Col
lege to Huntingdon, a distance
of thirty-one miles; the second
day, he walked to a point four
miles south of Orbisonia- thirty
one miles, and home eighteen
miles, Monday, feeling as fine as
a colt.

State Issues.
The Democratic party Of Pennsylva'
MIA demands the absolute destruction
OF the entire system which Is so thor
oughly identified with the Republican
leader that II Is known throughout
the length and breadth Of the country
as "Penroseism." This system has
made Pennsylyania the most conspicu,
Gus example of mis-goyernment. in, all
the Union. Any number OF particulars
and examples might be given. The fol
lowing should suffice:
Taxation.
The state collects an unnecessary
amount of revenue, by diverting to
state. purposes sources OF. revenue that
should be left to the cities and cOun,
ties. If entrusted with power, we shall
revise the system Of state taxation so
that various taxes, properly local In
their nature, may be left to the cities
and counties, which shall be given a
larger measure of home rule with re
spect to all matters of taxation. The
tax laws should be plainly stated and
literally enforced, and the whole sys
tenn should be so administered that
not only will there be equality, but
that every citizen may know that this
equality exists. BY cutting out the eX.
travagance and inefiiciency of present
and past state administrations, and
the eyasions and Determinations now
practiced, and substituting economy
and proper management, the expenses
OF the state government may be so
reduced that without abandoning any
of It's present usefulness, the burdens
Of taxation may be both equalized
and reduced.
Appropriations.
The legislature has for many years
made appropriations greatly in excess
of the estimated revenues, leaving 1t
to the governor to perform legislative
duties by cutting down these apprO-
priations. These appropriations are
made by the legislature solely for the
purposes Of political deception, and
with the full knowledge that the prom.
ises cannot be fulfilled. No system
could be more unscientilic or more
productive Of corruption and coercion.

That slipper that Mr.. VIM. Sc

trying to save his shoe; but last

obstruction causing the barrel to
tilt, and when it regained its
equilibrium, the chime was on
MIR. Secrist's foot. Of course, it
hurt.

Under a costly canopy
The village blacksmith sits.
Before him is touring car
Broken in little bits.
And the owner and the chauffeur. too,
Have almost lost their wits.
The village blacksmith smiles with glee
As he lights his fat cigar.
He tells the helpers what to do
To straighten up the car.
And the owner and the chauffeur too.
Stand ,humbly where they are
The children going home from school
Look In at the open door.
They like to see him make his bills
And hear the owners roar
And the chauffeurs weep as they declar,
They ne'er paid that before.
He goes each morning to the bank
And salts away his cash.
A high silk hat and long frock coat
Help him to cut a dash,
But the owner and the chauffeur, too,
Their teeth all vainly gnash.
The chestnut tree long since has died.
The smith does not repine.
His humble shop has grown into
A building big and fine,
And 1t bears Garage" above the door

BEING HOSPITABLE.

Col Z. w. Gibson of Brattleboro, one
of the leaders of the Progressive party
in Vermont and candidate for state
office on that ticket before the legisla-
ture last week, was the sponsor for a
resolution before Windham county court
last week, the purport of which was to
invite President Taft to speak before
the court on the occasion of his visit to
Newfane. The introduction of this reso-
luton does not mean that Gibson is
playing politics, but that he is much
aliva to the proprieties of the situation.
With the president in their midst as a
guest, Vermonters should sink their po-
litical differences for the time being, just
as Col. Gibson is doing.

AN INDICATION OF BARRE'S VALUE
AS RAILROAD FEEDER.

In a single train, thirty-fve cars
twelve loaded and the others 10 be used
at once in shipments out-were hauled
into Barre by two engines over the Cen
trial Vermont railroad Saturday. not to
mention other incoming and outgoing
trains of the same day. One is able to
judge thereby of the volume OF business
which Barre furnishes the Central Yer
mont railroad, and yet Barre has to fght
hard for every concession which il gets
from this transporting company. If
Barre were on the main line OF the
Central Vermont railroad. the oompany's
problem Of how to handle the increasing
business Of Barre would Be- solved. while
81 the same time Barre would receive
much improved service.
