Island presents a curious condition
of affairs. 1t appears that the
building in which the postof1ce
there is located is on the interna-
tional line, and the postofice COW
ers the line so neatly that one win
dow is in the Dominion and the
other in America. Postmaster Bay
ley can walk six feet from the Rock
Island window, and finds himself at
the Beebe Plain window. The latter
Office has only a few patrons, for the
reason that a rural route from the
south runs up into the fringe of
Rock Island village, and only a few
scattering families are served at
the Beebe Plain window. Never
theless they have rights and are not
slow in maintaining them. Because
of the lack of patronage or for some
other reason Postmaster Bayley has
lately seen fit to keep the Vermont
window closed much of the time, be-
cause Of which the few accommo-
dated got all heated up and asked
that an inspector from Washington
be sent up there to look into the
matter. He came, saw and reported
that the postmaster be suspended
for refusal to perform his duty.
Right here Canada steps in in the
person of the Rock Island patrons,
who aIlege they are quite satisfied
with the administration of the office,
that the postmaster is going to stay
and-what is Uncle Sam going to do
about it, anyway? Meanwhile mat
tiers remain in statu quo, the Yer
mont window is neglected and the
postmaster is feeding stamps to the
Rock Islanders as usual. Uncle
Sam is yet meditating on. the hard
winter, and the Beebe planners are
wondering where they are at, if at
all.

PRESS COMMENT
FavOrs state Board Of Trade.

The Reporter fails to agree with
the esteemed Bellows Falls Times
in the idea that a State Board of
Trade els doomed to failure before
it starts" on the ground that Yer
mont already is afflicted with a suf-
ficient number of state organizations
and that this one would be spread
out so thin in attempting to cover
so much territory as to be utterly
ineffective. The very idea of the.
project is to unity and coordinate
existing organizations through a
single central one, and to make
them increasingly effective by unit
ed effort a very different matter
from the creation of an entirely new
board. A state board of trade would
stand to its affiliated boards some
thing like Chapter or Templar Ma
sorry to the Blue lodges=and
might be made a most effective
agency for the advancement of

Hockey League.

The game Tor which the hockey
fans have been waiting is scheduled
for tonight, when the leaders of
the league clash. F. G. A. has a
clean slate to date and the Wander

the season was pulled off last
Wednesday night when the Wander

TO THE VOTERS OF
CARTER COUNTY

My attention has been called to a
card gotten out by i. J Akers, one OF
the candidates for county treasurer,
containing cartoon, in which | am
not only represented rs assisting in
the campaign of my deputy, John Yell,
for the position as treasurer, but am
quoted as saying, John we've got the
office-let's hold it," Now, this Is not
only unfair to me, but an actual mis-
representation of facts. AS everyone
knows, ] am not candidate for re-
election, and | will, at the end of my
present term, step down and turn
over the office to whomsoever the peo-
pie see fit to elect.
However, ! will admit that ! am
using my influence to aid In the cleo
ton OF Mr.. Yell as my successor. This
| NOT only consider my privilege, but
my duty as a patriotic citizen. In the
four years that Mr.. Yell has served
as my deputy have found him to be
efficient, reliable and honest and il
is due largely to his able assistance
that the books of the treasurer of this
county have been kept in such excel
lent condition that the state examiner
has characterized them as one of the
best he has ever inspected in the
state.
should see fit to draw me into this
controversy In such an unfair way. OF
all men in Carter County, it becomes
him the least. Five years ago, when he
was running for delegate to the CON
sttutional convention, he came to me
and asked my assistance. which / will
ingly granted, and, at his earnest re-
quest, ! gladly left my business and
made a speech in his behalf and did
all could to bring about his election.
The Good Book teaches us to return
good for evil, but ] am afraid my
friend, Mr.. Akers. has learned his
Bible backward, so that he is return
ing evil for good.
| had not intended to take very
active part in this race, but, mas
much as Mr.. Akers has seen fit to
drag me into the controversy in this
unfair manner, ! deem it not only
fair to myself and to Mr.. Yell, but
to all the voters of the county as well,
to state my position in the case, set
ting forth my reasons for supporting
Mr.. Yell in preference to his oppo-
nents, in order that the voters may
know the truth, and vote accordingly.
