Mr. Blaine and Mr.. Mckinley.

Whether reciprocity be good or bad
Mr.. Taft has certainly deserted the Re-
publican platform, and seems to be
ready to renew his Canadian bargain at
any time.
The Free Press, few weeks ago, said
if the Republicans expect to succeed in
1912 they must have a good platform
and put a man upon it who will stay
there. This is good doctrine. Mr.. Taft
failed to stand by the Republican plat
form of 1908 and cannot be trusted
again.

will vote for Taft again." but there
arc very many who can be trusted,

Tennessee.
Senator Dillingham;, in a vigorous
speech at Montpelier, Immediately de.
nouneed this statement as untrue and
SAID. in no equivocal term, that the rea-
sons given by Mr.. Taft were mislead-
ing. He also asserted that if the Taft
bargain became law it would result IN
severe and continued injury to Vermont
farmers.
Colonel n. j. Batchelder, master OF
the national grange also about the same
time, showed in several addresses the
utter fallacy OF Mr.. Taft's claim and
said that the proposed bargain was
made without regard to the Republican
platform and that the principle OF pro-
lection laid down in that platform has
been completely ignored But neither of

have truthfully said in this respect.

q, in "The Grain OF Dust"
The local theatregoing public learns
with interest and doubtless with pleas
sure that James K Hackett has re-
turned to actor management. His new
vehicle is a play made from book
as many others of his successes have
been; made from successful book. a
supremelv successful book to wit "Tht
Grain Of Dust, by David Graham Phil
lips, the last work to flow from the ia
ellie but powerful pen of this gifted
young author whose career of undenied
genius was cut short abruptly last Janu-
ary by the bullet of an insane assassin.
Mr.. Haekett comes TO the Barre opera
house Friday, March %.
Interest in the book did not center
alone in the tragic end of its brilliant
Young creator. because it was not the
late Mr.. Phillips first success, although
il was his greatest. II was and is q
really great brook that deals with big
and interesting modern conditions, the
kind of conditions that big and inters
esting modern people think big and in
teresting modern thoughts about. Doubt
less therein lies the explanation of the
fact that it has sold over quarter Of
million copies in three months. To
do that box must mean something
must say something. In other words,
the mere fact that the author of book
was murdered would not promote the
sale of his book to record breaking fig
ures. unless it was a good book.
".The Grain Of Dust" as play puts
the actual conditions Of actual modern
life before us with dazzling brilliance--
not to be denied. You may not like
Frederick Norman" but after you have
seen the play you cannot forget him.
Perhaps Won will directly fall in love
with "Dorothy Hallowell," but after you
have seen the play you viii wish you
might have known her, perhaps you will
even hunt for her counterpart!
In any case, roles of this description
are most especially in Mr.. Haekett's line.
There is a strong family resemblance
between Frederick Norman" and "Jack
Frobisher.' in "The Walls of Jericho
and he is about as closely related to
"Iohn Glade" in "John- Glade's Honor"
and in these two latter roles Mr. Hac'lett
scored two of his greatest triumphs.
