The liability Of the Connecticut River
Power company in the Vernon street
matter is something that ought to be de-
termined as soon as possible There IS no
doubt about the immediate need Of rails
ing that portion of the highway that ez-
tends. from the so-called Judge property
southwark. but there is no reason why the
town should have to bear the entire eE-
pense unless it is settled beyond doubt
that the power company is under TO liza
bility There isn't much question that tie
Vernon dam is primarily responsible for
the condition which makes necessary the
raising of the highway, but there does
seem to be room for an argument OH the
question whether the power company la
blity still exists in view OF the action Of
the selectmcn who were in office in 1908.
When work on Vernon street was stopped
in that year because OF threatened action
on the part OF the Judge heirs the select
men went into the question and on Nov.
IS filed report which concluded as fol
lows
after examination of the promises
we are OF the opinion and do decide
the public good and necessity and con
ycnienee Of individuals does not re-
/ quire SAID roadbcd to be raised more
| than three feet in front of the dwell
ing house belonging to the Judge
estate, and we order that said road
bed be not raised.

Chaloner. "but being in his own State.

Southern State. Mr. Hobson is an
ardent sufl ragSt. He has made
Votes-for women speeches in congress

that he viii force his opponents to
take stand upon this question.
Already Mr. Hehin has met that
challenge He has been leading just
as vigorous campaign in congress

that he will stump the State against
Hohson, if the latter wishes to make
this the paramount issue.
There is a general understanding in
Washington that Representative I'M

said so.

She thinks that Thaw would not

At the end of the interview, as Mrs.

Los ANGELES PRODUCE MARKET

Los ANGELES, June 2O.-Eggs took

have had in two days. They opened
at 26c but active bidding soon boosted
the price another half cent. Butter re-
manned unchanged, the highest offer
for it being 2S1sc, a higher rate than
is quoted at present. Cheese was in
active. with no changes,
Fresh beans of all sorts were a
drug on the market and the highest
price asked for Kentucky Wonders and
Refugees. the best grade, was 4c a
pound. Wax and string beans sold for
as low as 1 hc a pound. There was
another shipment Of local tomat oes
received and this sent the price down
to 81 crate. Imperial valley toma-
toes, in sympathy with this drop, fell
have reached so far this season. There
are still plenty of cucumbers on the
market and many of them can be
purchased for SOC dozen for the best
grade. Corn is scarce as the next crop
has not yet begun to come in and
dealers have no trouble in cleaning up
the daily receipts at around 40c a
dozen ears.
There are only a few grapes coming
in so far and most of these are sold
at the fruit trains, bringing from So
to $3.50 a box. Plums are now more
plentiful and sell for from 7c to Sc a
pound. Currants were a little stiffer
a crate. Pineapples are coming in in
fairly large amounts and this, togeth er
with falling off in the demand, due
to the presence of SO much other fruit,
for some and to Sc for the best grade.
Cantaloupe shipments are picking up
