TALLMAN FAILS IN
POLITICAL MISSION

Complete failure attended the mis-
sion in Idaho of Clay Tallman, com
missioner of the general land Office,
says a Boise special to the Herald
Republican. 1t was presumed at the
beginning that the commissioner came
on official business to inspect condi-
tions in the United States land offices
in the state. 1t is now known that his
mission was wholly political-that the
object of the visit was to bring about
harmony between the two warning fac
tions of the Democracy in the state
and to clear the way for making
Federal appointments. These appoint
ments have been held up until this
time, in spite of the fact that the
terms of many of the incumbents
have expired, because of the bitter
fight that has been waged since the
tration between the two Democratic
factions in the state.
Commissioner Tallman held confer
ences in private with Governor Haw-
ley and Senator Perky. Then he in
vited John +. Nugent to call upon him
at his room in the hotel Nugent
went He took with him a body
guard composed of Alexander, Pence,
Kinyon, Martin, Smead and others
who have been ready at all times to
60 to the last ditch with him. This
delegation gave tie commissioner
clearly to understand that there was to
be no compromise, whatever, over the
patronage the reactionafy Dem
ocrats who, they said, fought Wilson
and Bryan before the Baltimore eon-
vention and who gave Wilson beggar-
ly support in the campaign were to
have nothing whatever to say in dis
triAuton of the loaves and fishes; that
they, the progressive Democrats -
would much prefer to leave the FEEDER
al offices in the hands of the Republi-
cans than to turn them over to the
reactionary Democrats. 1t was
matter of principle with them, they
told the commissioner, and in a mat
ter of principle they knew no such
word as compromise.
"Then am I to understand de-
manded Commissioner Tallman, sthat
Governor Hawley, Senator Perkey,
Chairman Gray and Senator Dubois
are to have nothing whatever to say
about the distribution of the Offices ~
"That is just exactly what you are
to understand was the uncompromis-
ing response.
Evidence was submitted to the COM
missioner to show that Hawley,
Perky and Gray had tried to bring
about the nomination of Judson Har-
mon; failing in that that they had
all swung in with Fred T. Dubois to
bring about the nomination of Champ
Clark, and at no time did they show
any enthusiasm for Wilson and Bryan.
Commissioner Tallman left the city
Thursday afternoon. The recommen-
dations be made to his superiors can
only be guessed at, but the fact re-
mains that the Democracy of Idaho
is not yet united.

Western hemlock, says the Depart
ment of Agriculture, deserves better
opinion and more general use than it
now obtains. Intrinsically it is among
the most important of western woods.
The wood of western hemlock has
generally been considered an inferior
one chiefly because of the prejudice
created by the name, which has caused
it to be identified with eastern hemlock.
Tests by the forest service, however,
show it to have SO per cent the strength
of Douglas fir, one of the country S
chief construction timbers. In fact it
is often mixed with Douglas fir and
used for the same purposes.
The wood is practically free from
pitch. has a handsome grain, takes
paint and stain well, and works
smoothly. 1t is suitable for sash and
door stock, furniture, interior finish,
framing, flooring, boxes, barrels and
pulp. In bridges and trestles it can be
used for all but the heaviest construc-
ton. When properly treated with
preservatives, it is valuable cross tie
and pole wood.
According to Forrest Service Bull
letin lis, the best stands of western
hemlock are found in the coast region
and through the Cascade mountains.
The bulletin further gives the result OF
tests by which the mechanical prop
critics of western hemlock have beer
determined, and tells of the different
uses to which the wood is adapted.

OBITUARY..
JOHN RICE DODGE.

The many friends of John Rice Dodge
in Weybridge, West Rutland and other
towns, were panied to hear of his death
which occurred at his house in West
Rutland Saturday, February Is, only &c
days after the death of his father, after
an illness of week with pneumonia and
other complications. Words fail us to
do justice to the unselfish, honest, up
right life lived by the deceased born
June IS, 1871, found him young man to
quit his useful life only well begun.
His boyhood days were spent in Wey-
bridge, where he was born on the farm
owned by his grandfather, Rice Dodge.
In his home town he endeared himself
to all who became acquainted with him.
After being employed Some little time
in Syracuse, N. Y, he returned to Ver-
mont and began work for the Vermont
Marble Co., where he had been en-
ployed for some ID years.
On December 20, 1900, he married
Mary Britell, daughter of Grin Britell
of Weybridge, who with two brothers,
Charles W., and Albert g., survive him.
He soon moved to West Rutland, pur-
chasing afterward the home where he
died
John was not a man of many words
the actions spoke louder-but the every
day life he lived could well be copied by
all. He was member Of the Methodist
church, faithful attendant, contribut-
ing generously towards its support, was
treasurer of the same at his death.
The funeral was held at his home
Monday, the 18th, at 8 p. M, wher
words of comfort were spoken by Rev.
Peter Heller af Salisbury and the loca
pastor. The day following the remain:
were taken to Weybridge, where {
short service was held at the Hill
church by his pastor, with burial in thu
family lot near by. The Knights Of
Pythas acting as bearers, conducting
the last sad rights at the grave with ;
beautiful and impressive service, will

friends, the profusion of flowers, tn
tears of the workmen, the farewells o
the school children, all testified to tn
esteem in which he was held.

PECULIAR AFTER EFFECTS
OF GRIP THIS YEAR
Leaves Kidneys in Weakened
Condition.

Doctors in all parts of the country have
been kept busy with the epidemic of gpp
which has visited so many homes. The
symptoms Of grip this year are very dis
tressing and leave the system in a run
down condition, particularly the kidneys
which seem to suffer most, as every vic
tim complains of lame back and urinary
troubles which should not be neglected,
as these danger signals often lead to more
serious sickness, such as dreaded Bright's
Disease. Local druggists report large
sale on DR.. Kilmer's Swamp Root which
80 many people say soon heals and
strengthens the kidneys after an attack
of grip Swamp Root is a great kidney,
liver and bladder remedy, and, being an
herbal compound, has a gentle healing
effect on the kidneys, which is almost
Immediately noticed by those who try it.

Give Cows Winter Comfort.

The man who would obtain the best
milk Yields in the winter must endeavor
to approximate summer conditions as
closely as possible. On account OF their
general spareness of flesh, cows have
little protection for their vital organs
and are therefore peculiarly susceptible
to cold. For this reason warm housing
during the winter season, and providing
the barn with a King ventilating sys-
TEN, is matter of the highest import
ance, says a Farm and Home expert.
1t matters little how good a dairy ma
chine COW may be nor how well she
may be fed, the returns from her will be
unsatisfactory if she is compelled to
SILVER in the stable.
Another matter of Importance is tc
supply cows with reasonably warn
water. Think of the amount of nee
essary supply energy to heat water
from near freezing to blood tempera
ture! The best plan is to furnish cows
only freshly pumped water. If the
water is allowed to stand in the tani
until it is nearly frozen, it should b'
warmed by means of tank heater
Special heaters for this purpose can b.
obtained at small expense. Wood il
cheaper fuel for heating water thai
feed. Cows on dry feed exhibit an in
ordinate craving for salt to which the,
should have free access. They will no
eat more than is good for them, AM
are more likely to get what they nee
by allowing them to help themselves
With the foregoing conditions provides
and plenty of succulent feed, such
silage and roots and leguminous hay an
grain, winter dairying will be foun
verysprofitable.

Middlebury Register,
Dear SIR Thinking it may be of in
terest to our Middlebury friends to take
an imaginary glimpse of our trip to
Floii ida, will scribble you few lines
which you may print.
Beginning with Jacksonville which has
all the features of northern city with
its fine streets, parks, churches, and
public buildings, good street railway
system and fine days but cold damp
nights.
Daytona is the beauty spot of Florida,
allowing us to be judge, with its wide
shell streets lined with massive oaks
laden with beautiful Spanish moss and
royal palms. The air is laden with fra
GRANGE from flowers and fruit blooms;
the song birds are sweet to listen to.
Fruit is plentiful and cheap if bought
from the growers.
The city employs a fine band at
large salary which gives three concerts
each day on the parkage (water 'front.'.
There are three bridges crossing the
Halifax river and a cement one with
street railway track being constructed
At present the company expects to have
their cars in operation next winter.
Now for the beach about one mile
from here across the river which is
lined with bathers. Miss Ruth Law, the
aviator, makes frequent trips up and
down the front in her airship which
proves to visitors what wonderful feats
can be performed with these machines.
We have met some old acquaintance
and are having a fine time as we are
getting exactly what we came for.
Last but not least it is anu sing tt
to watch the land spectators whom one
cannot help but get interested in to the
extent of dabbling bit with them.
Of course we are looking forward tt
the home going when we shall enjoy
the six meal ratio-th down anC
three up-it is simply great.
Yours Very truly.

1.-THE Commander-in- Chief to James M.

"Reposing special trust and conf
dence in your fidelity and ability, and in
YOUR zeal for the interests of the Grand
Army of the Republic and devotion to
its principles, l do hereby by virtue of
the power and authority in me vested,

to Mr.. Tracy and he is now, therefore,
doubly colonel. In 1907 he was APP
pointed an aide-de-camp and colonel on
the staff of Commander-in-C Chief R. B.

Tracy was a native of Ohio and also
served in an Ohio regiment during the
