Prof. Hanson says he did not
state that by the Superintendent
and deputy travelling together the
cost to the county is doubled" as
that is too strong and experience
will not sustain the assertion.
What he did say is. that ''by the
superintendent and his deputy
travelling separately they can
serve the schools better and at
less cost to the county,"

Funeral. In Peru.

According to social usage, women in
Peru cannot attend funerals, and they
do not appear ut weddings unless they
are very intimate friends. When a
funeral procession passes through the
streets the coltih is carried upon the
shoulders Of the pallbearers. who are
followed by an empty hearse drawn
by two, four or six horses. according
to the means Of the mourners and their
desire for display. All the male men,
bers Of the family and friends Of the
deceased follow on foot, with line Of
empty carriages behind them. AS long
as they are in the presence Of the dead
it is considered a proper and necessary
evidence Of respect to walk. After the
body has been committed to the grave
those who attend the funeral are
brought home in the carriages.

In sluggish game, Wednesday
afternoon, Island Pond defeated
Newport. Twelve errors were made
by the locals; the score was very low
for the amount of errors. Morse

Dale For Congress

A careful canvas of the situation
indicates that Col. Porter H. Dale is
in the lead in his campaign. He has
more pledged delegates than any
other candidate and returns indicate
his nomination on the first ballot.
The Bellows Falls Times says, Mr..
Dale is seeking the nomination along
the old methods which will be dis
carded with the advent of primary
law"
The facts are, that MIR. Dale has
been anxious to go before the people
in a primary but has bee n deprived
of the chance through failure to
promuIgate law for that purpose.
He is not q part of any combination
or ring and is not of that clique at
tempting to corner all the officers of
the state by the methods used by
Napoleon in parcelling out his prov
inces. He is an open air candidates
who has gone forth to visit with The
good people of the second district;
and he is not backed by any "inViSi-
BILE government" like some eleventh
hour candidates who are now in the
field. No corporation and no "big
business" is standing behind him.
The Bellows Falls Times calls him
'an affable gentleman and man Of
parts" This is true and more. He
is a fine Christian gentleman, an
orator of great ability and man
who will break the perpetual silence
with which our district has been
surrounded, for the past six years,
in the halls of national legislation.
The unanimity of delegates for
him, in his immediate locality, and
the fact that he has obtained such
recognition in Caledonia, the home
of Alexander Dunnett, speak loud
for his personal merit.
The solidarity of Essex for him
with Orleans also a unit in his sup
port, with the possible exception of
one town where invisible govern
ment" has been working, speaks of
the highest terms concerning his
power with the common people. If
their wishes are frustrated and over
come by ring rule and eleventh hour
candidates, this time, there will be
an echo which will upset the plu-
tocracy forever.

APPREHENDED FOR
TAKING BODY

Quite a rumpus over the disposition
Of the body Of H. w. Bishop, aged
II years, who died in Craftsbury last
Monday, seems to have taken place
between the survivors of the dead
man.
The son, with whom the father
had been living for some time past,
wished to take the body to North
Stratford for interment, to be buried
by the deceased first wife, but the
mother-in-law wished otherwise. 1t
is alleged that the son hired an auto
mobile and took the casket without
the necessary papers, and started
for the New Hampshire town, but
the machine broke down at West
Charleston and wagon was secured
to finish the journey.
Local officers intercepted the par
ties here upon the request of Orleans
county authorities, to whom the son
was turned over to. The body was
sent back to Craftsbury.
Old time residents remember the
man, n,he at one time being proprietor
of the Stewart House, later going
to Brunswick, where he took charge
of the Spring House.
