Scotia Club Meeting

A most interesting meeting of the
Scotia club was held in the vestry of
the South church on Thursday which
was largely attended by mem
bers of this organization. Mr..
Richie presided and the speaker OF
the evening was Rev. Paul d. Moody,
who spoke on the Scotch Covenanters
and the injustice that had been done
them in Scott's novels. The speaker
showed a thorough knowledge of a
most interesting period in Scotch
history and paid high tribute to the
character and moral fiber of the
leaders of that movement. Follow
ing his address, Rev. Peter Black
delighted the audience with an eX-
ceIlent rendering of a chapter from
j. J. Bells story ''Wullie McMattie' g
Master A choice musical program
included a vocal solo by Miss Nor
rison, a piano solo by Arthur Knob
lock and a sang by Mr.. Mackay, the
president of the club.

and prosperity and that is by vot-
ing for the man who is doing his best
to destroy the party which has
brought about the prosperity through
the tariff which has been its principal
issue from the start of the campaign.
Colonel Roosevelt is not disrupting
the party fast enough through his
popular following" propaganda and
seems to be losing ground, SO his
supporters are now making a bid
for the vote of the business man and
the working man on the tariff slo-
gan.
Has it ever occurred to Mr.. Mum
sey that Mr.. Taft has held his fol-
lowing and has been gaining ground
in other directions than among the
business classes, and that when the
people have mulled over some OF
these popular doctrines of Colonel
Roosevelt as a practical proposition
to relieve the real pulls that trouble
them that they will find nothing in
them and turn to Mr.. Taft? It prob
ably has occurred to him rather
strongly or he wouldn't have drop
ped the Constitution-wreckin doc
trines that have been spread from
one end of the country to the other
for the same old hard-headed tariff
question which really. affects bust
ness conditions and prosperity.
If Colonel Roosevelt had not been
losing ground among his own classes
he would not be making a bid for a
part of Taft's support, if he were not
in trouble his supporters would not
be making an appeal for votes on the
tariff, just remember that Mont
pelier Journal.

throughout the country, but IL
the attempt were made to lessen
expenses by eliminating the mail
ing OF franked documents the peo-
pie would certainly applaud, for
this is one Of the worst abuses the
government puts up with. A few
samples serve to show something
Of the enormity of this contributing
cause to the postal deficit.
A short time ago Senator Penrose
of Pennsylvania sent over so
sacks Of franked mail in one week
to a man living on an r. #. ID.
route on the Cape. Representative
Rodenberg Of Illinois recently sent
out 100000 copies Of a fierce at
tack on the pure food law. Senator
Lodge Of Massachusetts last winter,
send a speech broadcast over the
country at government expense.
Speeches supposed to have been de-
livered in congress are scattered
recklessly about by senators and
representatives, who are supposed to
have delivered them, but who, often
times, only spoke to imaginary au-
dfences and who take this method Of
placing their views before the peo-
pie. The destination Of much of
this printed trash is only the waste
paper basket, and it is often unopen-
ed, but the government pays, the
expenses, sending this franked mat
ter first class. II is no. known, even
to the postmaster-general, how much
this abuse is costing the government
but it is certain that If the funds
used for this purpose were available
for real benefits to the country, like
the extension of rural free delivery
etc, the people would feel better
satisfied.-[ Hardwick Gazette.

The RepubIican Campaign

We should not be writing the
true history of this campaign, with
its changing aspects day by day, if
we neglected to record the marked
revival of confidence and pluck
among the Taft leaders during the
week now closing. This is not a mat
ter of opinion but of observation.
All those who are impartially watch
ing political events from viewpoints
of advantage must have noted the
same thing. There is new spirit in
the Taft canvass, new hope in the
ranks of the republican supporters
Of the President, new vigor in the eff
forts of such auxiliary organizations
as the Union League Club, for in
stance. The change is not local but
widespread. If there is any Taft man
who does not feel it's energizing in
huence it is the President himself,
and that for the simple reason that
his courage and confidence have un-
dergone no fluctuations from the
beginning.
These circumstances are of partf-
cular interest to republicans who
have been shaping their intentions
Cd the theory that there was no
chance whatever for Taft and that
the surest way to beat Roosevelt and
the third term and indefinite tenure
was to concentrate their votes upon
Wilson.

Of his long illness He was native
of Morgan, born in 1852; was twice
married, first in 1876 to Miss Ellen
Ruiter of his native town, again in

more recently, with conspicuous
courtesy and carefulness, as janitor.
His kind and cordial nature and his
cheerful readiness to be always help

Footsteps stirred the old leaves that

Jack saw the newcomers first, for
they came into view behind the girl on
the opposite side of the brook. Violet
Merriam heard them, too, but she did
not turn around until she saw the ut
ter CONSERVATION on the face of Jack.
What Jack saw was an elderly, white
haired man. dignitied and handsome,
walking slowly toward him. Beside
him there walked-nay, lumbered-a
very large woman, who might have
been twenty years younger than her
companion. Her skin was foridly fair
and she was handsome in large way.
Her eyes were very blue and her lips
very red. She had double chin, and
she quivered like mold of delicate
jelly every time she moved.
They idd not appear to see the young
people by the brookside. Before they
reached the brook they turned and
went away by another path. Then she
gazed straight across the water into
Jacks bewildered eyes.

Jack was looking at her with a queer
expression on his face. There was

dawning apprehension. There was
mischievous delight mingled with
something else that it might take
months to decipher He had forgotten
all about Phyllis Lambert.
He took one long step across the
