It's much cheaper than the

There's but few buildings to

it is a guaranteed appliance,

Save the Water.

Owing to the drought, the water in
the reservoirs of the Lambertville Water
Company is now unusually low, and
unless there is sufficient rainfall with
in a short time to start the springs to
flowing, it Will be necessary to fill the
mains with unfiltered river water.
The Company therefore requests that
all unnecessary use of water be stopped
and that the citizens cooperate with
the Company in conserving, as long as
possible, the water now in the reser-
voirs.
If the consumers will at once reduce
the amount of water used to the small
est quantity practicable, the necessity
for resorting to river water, which is
said to be polluted with disease germs,
may be avoided.

The Governorship.

The announcement of r. +. Howe that
che would like to be governor of Vermont
has added new feature to the contest,
Mr.. Howe, like Mr.. Fleetwood, is not
possessed of large fortune, and says he
shall make no pre-convention canvass.
Whatever ones estimate of Mr.. Howe,
as an individual, it must be admitted
that his platform announced is the clear
est, most advanced and most courageous
of any yet published His declaration
that the power of towns to incur indebt-
edness should be limited, but appropria-
'tions by the legislature should not ex-
coed the revenue then in sight and def
mite plan for reducing court expenses
show that Mr.. Howe has given state
matters careful study. Equally definite
is his advocacy of a workmen's compen-
sation law. His standing on this gives
him clear advantage over Mr.. Clement
and his fiat declaration that he wishes TO
serve as a Republican will be more ia
vorsbly received than Mr. Fleetwoods
caution appeal to the people of Yer
mont"
But Mr.. Howe will have trouble in his
own county, probably considerable por-
ton of it going for Mr. Clement. As
stated last week, it is evident Mr.. Glenn
ent cannot carry his own county, while
Mr.. Fleetwood can come into the con-
vention with his county solidly behind
him. Friends Of MIR. Fleetwood are
found in nearly every section of the
state. The only trouble is they seem
contented to say they would like to see
Fleetwood get it. but they are leaving il
entirely on Fleetwood's hands TO get il.
