LIVELY RUTLAND POLITICS
Whitaker to Oppose Sheriff Fish
Candidates for Senator

Rutland, June deputy United
States Marshal Edward S. Whitaker,
who for q years served as a deputy
sheriff, failing of re-appointment by
Sheriff Enos c. Fish of West Rutland
two years ago, has announced his
candidacy for sheriff to oppose Mr.
Fish. There has been so much in
terest in national politics that there
has been little talk about county pol
itics. The only other new man to
announce himself so far is Attorney
w. II. Rowland of Poultney, who is
to oppose County Judge Horace M
Redheld of Hubbardton. The other
county Judge, Edwin Horton of Chit
tenden and States Attorney B. l.
Stafford of this city, who seek re
election will probably have no oppos
ition.
For Senator from Rutland county
many names have been discussed al
though no one has openly announced
his candidacy Among the possibil
tiles are A. G.. Stone of Wallingford
representative in 1910. l.. H. Cook Of
Dandy. ~ X Chaffee of Rutland
William Dyer of Middletown Springs
l.. f. Croft of Clarendon, George Rob
ingson OF West Rutland and A. G
Jones of Sudbury. Harvey r. Kings
ley is the man who is now most talk
ed of for city representative.

Certain most important inventions
v been the work Of boys. The in
Ventlon OF the valve motion in the
steam engine. for instance, was made
by u mere lad. Newcome's engine was
IN a very incomplete state, owing to
the fact that there was no way to
open or close the valves except by
means OF evers operated by hand.
ne set up a large engine at a mine.
a boy, Humphrey oPtter, was
nlred 20 work these valve levers. AL
though this was not hard work, it
called for constant attention.
AS the Potter lad was working the
levers he saw that parts of the n
CINE moved in the right direction,
at the same time he ha dto open
or close the valves. He procured a
strong cord and made one end fast
10 inc proper part Of the engine and
the other end to the valve lever. The
boy mad hen the satisfaction of see
ing the engine o with perfect
regularity of motion. A short time
after the foreman came around and
saw the boy playing marbles at. the
door. Looking at the engine, he at
once perceived the ingenuity of the
boy. as we'll as the advantage of so
clever an invention. The idea sug-

was put into a practical form, and
made the steam engine an automatic
working machine.
The power loom was the invention

seen or heard Of such a thing. He

at once kicked 1t into pieces, saying
he. would not have about him a boy
who would spend his time in such
foolish ways. Accordingly. the boy
was sent to a blacksmith t o learn the
trade. His master took a lively in
terest i'll the lad. He made Il loom

that the invention was a valuable
one. A loom was constructed under
the supervision of the boy. 1t work.
ed to perfection, and the blacksmith
f1rnished the means to manufacture
the looms, the boy receiving half the
profits.
In about a year the blacksmith
wrote to the boys father that he
bring with him on a visit a
wealthy gentleman, who was the in
ventor Of the celebrated power loom.
One may, therefore, conceive of the
establishment of the father when his
w son was presented to him as the
inventor of a loom based upon the
principle of that which the old man
had kicked to pieces only a year be-
fore.

Undoubtedly the greatest factor in
longevity Is an active Interest in hu-

The fear of death. as a ph%ilosohic
proposition has passed from the
world. We have no sorrow for the
dead. and science has shown us that
pain is an attribute Of life and that
the dying have neither pain nor fear.
The orthodox religion. which was
devised to give men comfort. CAV
them just the opposite thing. Happily.
the devil is a joke. and the tears Of

who is willing to go or stay. And the
man who is willing to go or stay stays

John Calvin and John Knox had a
