Secretary Garrison's Programme.

There is one mate of the ship of state
who shares to a superlative degree the
confidence of the people. He is the Hon.
Lindley NJ. Garrison, Secretary of War.
Quietly, unobtrusively, diligently, he has
attended to the duties of his post while
laboring ever in Cabinet councils for the
supremacy of common sense over incense
and nonsense. In the utter rout of the
prince Of peacemakers and in the new
vision come to Daniels he has begun to
see the triumph in part of his sane infu-
ence. He fully deserves the confidence
he has won.
It will be well, therefore, for Congress
when it meets again TO treat with much
greater respect than last fall Mr.. Garri-
sons we'll considered plans for the in
crease and improvement of the regular
army and national guard. The country
wants preparedness. There can be no
two opinions on that point. AS to the de-
gree of military strength necessary chat
is a matter" as the Secretary himself
will surely be prepared to take the expert
opinion of the General Staff and the War
College Endorsed by Mr.. Carlson,
which are in possession of all the facts
to enable them to say authortatively
what minimum preparations should be
made for our national defence and lay
the basis for a settled military policy"
Secretary Garrison will ask Congress
for money and legislation to enable him
tc increase the regular army to 5000
officers and men and the national guard
to 10000 officers and men, the combined
force of 100000 being, in his judgment, a
safe nucleus of trained soldiers for emer-
gencies. 1t will go hard, we predict, with
the Congressman who seriously oppose
the accomplishment of this programme.

Two Mexican EmiSsarles Appear at
Cornish
RE ERRED TO WASHINGTON
Representatives Insist that Their
Chief is Opposed to
Huerta.

Cornish, N. H., June 30.-An unsuc-
cessful effort was made yesterday to
arrange an interview between presi-
dent Wilson and Gen Felipe Angeles,
the Mexican leader. who recently
came to the United States and who
wants to give the president his view
of conditions in Mexico and to sug
gest way of meeting Mr.. Wilson'S
warning that the situation there must
change.
Col. Jesus NJ. Aguilar and Maj
Yrenzo A. Garcia, who said they were
members respectively OF the staff of
Gen Angeles and Gen Raoul Madero,
arrived during the afternoon bearing
letters of introduction from Gen Mad
ero and Gen Angeles, but We're told
that details of the Mexican situation
were being handled by the state de-
partment ut Washington and that it
would be impossible for Gen Angeles
to see the president at Cornish.
Tho two Mexieans denied reports
that Gen Angeles was connected With
Gen Victoriano Iluerta in any move
ment to start another revolution In
Mexico They said that Gen Angeles
ana Gen Villa are still warm friends
and that both would oppose Huerta
to the end. According to Aguilar ana

London, June 30.-Driven back oy-
er their own frontier north OF Lem
berg, with the loss of Tomaszow, and
forced to cross the River GniIa Lipa,
in southeast Galicia, the Russian arm
les continue to retreat before the
Austro-Germans along front of ap-
proximately $50 miles, about equal to
the distance between Arras and the
Vosges.
The Berlin official communication
records progress by the Teuton
troops in virtually the entire south
eartern theatre, although violent
fighting Is still in progress beyond
the Gnila Lipa, which joins the Dnie-
ster at Halicz.
Having forced a passage OF this
stream, General Won Linsingen
army is presumably astride the rail
way running from iIalicz to Lemberg
and Stanisslau, and now doubtless is
aiming at the line which runs from
Lembergo Odessa through Tarnopol.
1t seems evident that Germany IS
bent on further punishment for the
Russians before relaxing the intensi-

Complying with your request pub

submit a list of the different classes
of Fireworks and Fourth of July
goods which we will offer for sale this
year. and believe you will unanimous

care in the elimination of the dang

fireworks that can be obtained for

They are all easily fired and except
for a few of them require no special
preparation. Large mines, Wheels,

these, we have purchased only the

their ward will purchase these as we
will not vouch for their keeping quiet
after ignition, (either the trustees
or the crackers.)
Glass 5-Pistols, guns and cannons.
This sounds formidable, but really
we have none OF those that have
MANNED our boys and girls on former
occasions. The guns shoot common

A TWILIGHT LEAGUE
Baseball Plans for Summer at the
Playground

FttJ W Obf0
The history of baseball in Benning
ton has been one of rapid growth and
development in the last ten years. 1t
has often been said that we had the
-ary aliest baseball town ON the map
group of the most enthu siastic
fans to be found anywhere in New
England In recent yeas, however,
base ball seems to have taken sud
den and quite unexpected slump un-
til at the present writing Bennington
is completely devoid of any represent
atiye base bali team. We might say,
'how the mighty have fallen?'
am sure this is not due to any
lack of base ball enthusiasm on the
part of the local fans for there is plen-
ty of latent enthusiasm if it could on
ly be aroused. 1t is the object of the
playground this season to see what it
can do along the lines of stirring up
some of this dormant enthusiasm
among the fans of Bennington by in
augurating a Twilight league for men
and older boys. By this, we mean to
start four teams if possible that Will
practice twice week after supper
and then play doubleheader on
Saturday afternoons for league
trophy to be awarded at the end OF
the season. Now and then it might
be possible for the league teams to
cross bats with some out of town
club.
There is no need to ask if there is
material for these teams. one has but
to sum up the various local clubs
such as the old r. NJ 4. AS the ex-
Tammany, the Hustlers. and the Cubs
to know that we have a raft of base
ball material which if only brought
under a single organized head such
as a league would bring forth splen
did results along base ball lines. TO,
we do not lack the material, what we
need is to start the ball rolling.
Neithe do we lack the facilities for
playing the game. The playground
diamond is open to all and is practi
cally the only available diamond in
town at present. The playground

completed by the addition of new out
