(Beebee) Wilcox, after few hours
illness passed to the Great Beyond.
He was born in Morgan, VT, Deem

popular fellow. He was good natur-
ed, generous, perhaps to fault, and
always accommodating. No man
ever came to him in financial en-
barrassment to whom he did not lend
a willing ear and to whom he did not
respond, and no man was ever ap-
piled to more frequently.
He served three years in the state
militia. being one of those who ac-
companied Governor Grout to New
York when General Grants tomb
was dedicated. He has held various
town offices, being a constable at the
time of his going. He was member
of the Grange, the Modern Wood
men of America, and the Knights of
Pythias.
October II, 1904 Mr.. Wilcox mar
ried Bernice Thorncroft Mackenzie,
and unto this union were born three
children, Ella May, Mackenzie, and
Elizabeth. The funeral services
were held at his late residence Sat
urday, July %, the Rev. G. H. Ben
nett and the Knights af Pythias Of
floating. The floral tributes were
numerous and beautiful. Interment
was at Morgan.

II PAYS TO ADVERTISE
In advertising sent from this office, which
appeared in the state press last week, the sub
ject being Senator Page Makes a Speech, the
following paragraph appeared:
"The Vermonter in Washington who heard
Senator senator Pages speech writes further on the
situation. He says that the Hoke Smith
cational educational bill is the cal
endar, but that it will not be acted this
session.
This information, received by The Allen
M Fletcher Senatorial Club presented the con-
dltion as it then existed in Washington. The
following news item appeared in the St. Adams
Messenger on Friday, August 4:

cational bill which passed the senate the other

hour attempt to secure enactment before the
adjournment of Congress-
1t had been thought that the Senate caen-
gar oar was too crowded to allow room for this
Dill at this time, and the plan had been to
postpone the enactment of thislegslaion till
the December session Favorable reports on
the bill were made weeks ago by both
committees which handled it,"
Is it not true, Senator Page that the Smith
Vocational Educational pill would have passed
Tic Oenate II you nad not spoken or voted fOr 1t!
Isit not true, Senator Page, that for pure
ly political purposes you at this time urged your
self upon the Senate to make speech upon bill
which had been favorably reported and which as
the St. Adams Messenger news item says, "Pass-
ed the senate the other day without notice
of any kind"

Importance of any bill which provides better edu-
cational facilities for the youth of the land but
we respectfully suggest that Senator Pages rec

ucational bill was fzzle and was lost in the

as to forbid Legitimate and truthful criticism of
any of his public or official acts?
