PEST VICTIMS LIE THERE
Grave Of Five Who Died Of Smallpox
In 1911 Found In 6eIlerlea,
Mass.

Closely adjoining the site of the
Boston & Maine car shops in Billerica,
the surveyors discovered a gravestone
marking the spot where 100 years ago
five persons, victims of smallpox, were
buried
The stone is still in good condition.
although messy with age. The foot
stone as we'll as the headstone is
solid, giving evidence of careful work
on the part of the ones who placed it
there.
The grave was evidently chosen a
century ago as secluded spot, and
when found trees, underbrush and
, shrubbery nearly hid it from sight.
The words on this headstone are:
Erected in memory of and to desig-
nate the place where Asa Grost, Jr..
Levi Frost, Eleanor Farmer, Sarah
Hodgman and Samuel Batchelder
were buried, who died of smallpox,
August, 1911.
At first the Boston & Maine con-
sidered getting the consent of the
state to remove the stone and the
dust of the bodies, but it has been de
cided to let the grave remain where
1t is.
So these five persons will rest
where they are and their bed of the
last century will not be disturbed. Nc

What State Editors are
Saying.
Hilburn the Logical Man


The careful survey of political condi-
tions in the Second District point I'M
mistakably TO Samuel ]. Hilburn as the
logical man to represent the district in
Congress.
Representative Frank Clark has been
declining in popular favor for the past
two years, and has been cultivating such
just crop of opposition that he can
hardly hope TO be reelected. He has
not only verified the predictions OF his
former political antagonists that he
would prove himself untrue to the prin-
ciples of Democracy, but has alienated
the support of some OF his best friends,
who have found that he is not the man
10 be entrusted with public office Of
such importance.
This being the case, the voters of the
district have been, looking around Tor a
man 10 take his place, and they have
found him in Sam Hilburn.
\ Hilburn is Clark's equal, If not his
superior, on the hustings. He is as
good tinker" as Clark; his ability is
unquestioned, having been established
by twenty years of successful law prac
tice in competition with the ablest law
SCio Vi oNdtSs dhN hO PoooSooSo tha
which Clark does not possess--absolute
fidelity TO Democratic principles ant
fearless espousal OF what he conceive:
to be right, no matter what the odds.
II is hardly necessary TO consider Bur-
and Toomer in the race. Burr ha:
nearly three years TO serve as railroad
commissioner. If he gets around ant
appraises the situation he will discovel
that the people are not willing for hin
10 surrender the office which he nov
holds to seek another, when there is :
man in the field whom all will find &C
ceptable.
Toomer's candidacy is a premature
example of conceit He has been IL
Florida but short time; knows nothing
about the district from personal obserya
ton or study, has lived in Jacksonville
ever since he came to Florida, and il
pledged in his announcement 10 thu
business interests There is little
need 10 say more. The business in
terests" will conclude quickly that hi:
campaign slogan is cheap bid for theil
support, and the people do not care to
trust any man who is tied TO the "busi
ness interests" This is the main reason
why they are going TO defeat Frank
Clark. Certainly they would not swap
Clark for man of the same stripe and
less ability. The people are weary OF
having to watch their representatives all
the time 10 be sure that they are doing
the right thing II would be relief TO
have man who could be trusted TO do
right at all times From long and in
innate acquaintance with Sam Hilburn
we know him 10 be that man, -St. Aug

Primoueniture.

The law of primogeniture sends
back its roots to the most ancient
times. Away back in the patriarchal
ages the frst-born son had a superb
ority over all his brethren. and in the
absence Of his father was in every
important sense the head of the house.
Upon the death OF the father he be

could not be questioned. the priest
and lord Of the family. and naturally
to him fell the property as well as the
honors Of the household Primogeni-
ture. wherever Il is found today. is

eustom-R custom which common
sense and justice pronounce to be as
unfair as Il Is supsEsltious.
