be most generally credited by the pub
lie is the reported friction between him
and the head Of the Grand Trunk sys'
TEN. Il. j. Chamberlain, who, immNi'
ately on Mr.. Fitzhughs withdrawal, was
elected to dll the vacancy. OF course,
the reports which have been flying about
since the Grand Trunk system sudden
~ suspended its work on railroad ex-
tension into Boston and Providence have
been more or less conjecture, and they
may do injustice to the men concerned,
However, il was common talk that Presi.
dent Fitzhugh of the Central Vermont,
who was in charge of the construction
of the Southern New England line, which
was to be an adjunct Of the Grand
Trunk, was firm believer in the value
of the extension To southern New Eng
land by way of Boston and Providence
and that he stopped that work against
his wishes. II will be recalled at the
time the order was forthcoming, an.
nouneing the suspension OF the work,
Mr.. Fitzhugh declared himself to be in
the dark ms much as the general public
was concerning the reasons therefor. Since
that time, Mr.. Fitzhugh has been
strangely silent regarding the complicat-
ed situation in southern New England.
The spokesman has been President
Chamberlain Of the Grand Trunk. And
now Mr.. Fitzhugh has stepped out as
president OF the Cmtral Vermont Rail
way company; and presumably he will
also relinquish his connection with the
Southern New England railroad, which,
as yet, is in the half-completed stage.
To the general public of Vermont the
severance of all his connections with the
Central Vermont railroad is n matter TO
be regretted.

coming from far distant lands and hav-
ing been compelled TO devote every cent
to the trip, so that now they are in
a ptiable condition as far as finances
are concerned. Lest the number be in
creased, it should be emphasized every
where that the reported cure Is yet in
the experiments stage and that no good
can come from making the trip to Ber-
lin until the live bacilli remedy has been
investigated thoroughly under competent
regulation, preferably by the German
government. 1t may prove to be efiica-
cous; everybody hopes it will but at

Boy Scouts At Gettysburg,

From every quarter come testi-
monials to the splendid work the Boy
Scouts did at Gettysburg. There was
need for just such a corps as they made
up, to help the veterans through the
trying days of excessive heat and un-
wonted exertion, and the boys demon
strated their discipline and their capac-
ity to take their business seriously,
Beyond all that they proved wonder.
fully efficient in doing the things need
ed of them, They knew how and de-
veloped the confidence to do the thing
that the moments exigency demanded,
in case of accidents, prostrations and
thelike. Groups of them were attach
ed to the various aid stations scatter
ed throughout the battlefield. and they
worked hard day and night, winning
the enthusiastic praise of all.
It Is little hard to realize that
these Boy Scouts, with few more
years on their heads, will be today 5
counterpart of the grand CRIMES of
boys that fought the Civil War. The
Scout organization IS giving them q
training and discipline. an appreciation
Of responsibility, a serious bent Of
mind that Is probably the nearest pos
aible approach to the results that mill

there are features which could be

attempt is made to amend the bill
in any particular the flood gates of

that it would be almost unrecognizable

Browns attitude as a member of the
committee which has the measure under
consideration. he will do in this case as
he died in the case of the tariff bill and
stand by the caucus action. In the
tariff bills consideration he was oppos-
ed to the proposed wool schedule and
voiced his opposition in the caucus, but
when the caucus decided against him
he stood by the majority and supported
the bill as reported. In this case he is
for the bill proposed and will stand by
it in the caucus. But be will follow the
course of the majority in the caucus.
and the indications are now that caucus
will approve the bill as reported from

The Bridge Bond Election.


The election held in Charles
Town District last week for the
issuance of SIS 900 of its bonds
for the purpose of building
bridge across the Shenandoah
river resulted in the decisive de-
feat of the, proposition, less than
majority of the voters voting
for the bridge, while three-ffths
of the votes po1led was necessary
for success.
This, of course, disposes of the
matter for time at least, but we
opine that, like Banquo's ghost,
it will not down. and will
reach a successful contamination
in some shape=ef other, and that
in the not far distant future.
In a rich and prosperous county
like ours that considerable per-
centage of its citizens should have.
to depend on a11tedeluvian methods
of communication is an 'impos-
sib1e' condition that cannot long
endure.
Whether as a private enter
prise, or on some other plan of
County or District aid, the Bridge
will sooner Or later be built and
that part of Jefferson lying east
/ of the river=be opened for devel-
opment and trade, which will in
ure to the benefit not only of those
who are now cut off from inter-
course with their. fellow citizens,
but to the County in general and
Charles Town in particular.
We expect that the meaning Of
the election was tina many of the
voters did not regard the real
merits of the case as much as
they did the possible effect of a
temporary increase in their taxes,
