Living in Hopes.
Huntington News.l

The Vermont Republicans, according
to the news of today are going to give
us Today whirlwind finish to the
coming campaign. They realize, per-
haps that little more detailed informa
ton should be spread abroad about
that safety-frst platform of theirs. In
addition, of course, they want to keep
their hands in campaigning methods
to guard against that inevitable day
when stronger opposition is bound to
spring up and make them do a little
more constructive work.

Middlebury's Good Fair.
BARRE Times.)

The Addison County Fair associa-
ton at Middlebury must have a de-
partment of financiering; a surplus of
$l,7l911 is reported after the accounts
of the most recent fair were balanced.
But the association has been giving
some first-rate fairs for many years
and has the advantage of a developed
prestige which some fair associations
in Vermont are permitting to fall away
from them. That may account in part
for the financial success Of the under
taking.

Traps For Automobiles.
Barre Times.)

After a quart of nails had been picked
up on one street in Brattleboro, the
village commissioners concluded il was
time to stop the dumping of ashes on
the streets, without accusing the vul-
canizers of conspiracy to enhance
trade. Judging by the number of rusty
and bent nails to be found on Pros.
pect street, just off Main, in Barre, a
few people might be more careful in
handling ashes and other refuse. The
place is a bad trap for automobiles.

TO THE GENERAL PUBLIC

1t has been the custom for years
with the Kings Daughters of Car
son to- provide the needy of this city
with a good substantial box of pro-
visions and a few dainties at Christ
mas time. These boxes have always
been greatly appreciated by those re-
ceiving them and a great help through
the winter. While the recipients
might struggle along they are looked
for by some and counted on.
The Kings Daughters have been
called on to such an extent this fall
that they feel that if there is any one
in Our midst who would like to help
one less fortunate than themselves,
their help, however small or great,
would be greatly appreciated by this
order. There are sent in these boxes
groceries of all kinds, canned fruit,
homemade jelly and preserves, or
anges, chicken, duck or turkey, cauli-
flower and celery. Almost any thing
will be acceptable. This call will re-
main open till next Tuesday, Decem-
Der 10Th, and any one wishing to
donate. will kindly send same to Mrs.
Fred Cushing's home, where the
boxes will be packed and sent out.

Plaintiff.
ASKING FOR DAMAGES
Under Law. However, Casual Worker
10 Not Entitled to Recover
Under Compensation
Act.

The status of the casual workman
Is involved in case which was heard
yesterday before James S. Burrows,
justice of the peace The case is
that OF Fred Kelly vs. Harry Schultz.
Kelly is suing for damages under the
workmen's compensation law. He
claims to have been injured while
carrying some heavy iron for Schultz
Kelly testified that he had been
employed off and on at the Schultz
place. and Schultz testified that it was
his custom to hire men for the day
or several days perhaps when cars
were to be loaded. Such employment
would be said to be casual, accord
ing to attorneys. and there is clause
in the Iowa law which bars casual
workmen from recovering damages
under the compensation law.
Attorneys for Kelly asked for more
time in which to cite certain authori-
ties and Justice Burrows will wait to
receive these authorities before max
ing decision in the case.
The dictionary definition Of casual
is Occasional, happening without reg
ularity." This is the claim that the
defense is making In the case. that
the employment of Kelly was only
occasional, and that the case is not
covered by the liability law

Way tn Which Case to Test Muiut Re-
peal 10 Being Handled Here,
Brings Favorable
Comment.
MAIN ISSUE IS CLEAR
There Will DO no Other Legal Phases
to Tanqle up Matter and to
Delay High Courts
Action.

That the statement OF plans and In
tenttons in the mulct law repeal fight
which has been made by the attorney
for Phil Nickel Is of great aid to the
state officers In knowing just what
course to follow, is inferred from the
following from Davenport:
I'VE have been unable to get any
Information from the attorneys from
the other side," Mr.. Cosson said. III
they would tell US their attitude 1t
would save a lot Of bother for both
sides. We should be compelled to
start criminal proceedings II they In
Bist on keeping open after thu first
action"
Mr. Cosson said it was not the wish
of the state officers to do any star
aoting."
"All we want is the assurance that
the saloons will not try to remain
open while we are testing the law"
he said
Now, In Keokuk we received infor-
nation from the attorneys for the sa.
looms to the effect that they would
open one saloon and sell one drink
merely as test of the law They
will notify US long enough in advance
SO that we can have men there to
start the proceeding. They viii not
open until about January TO-"
Attorney, Ballinger who repre-
SCENTS Phil Nickel, said that in the
Keokuk case there would be no ques-
ton Of the compliance with the mulot
law, or any of the side issues. All Of
these have been waived by Mr.. Cos
son, and Will not be brought up by
either side. This win allow for the
main issue to be fought out here, and
that is whether or not the mulct law
repeal is valid.

ably will have considerable weight In
determining the final attitude Of Brit
ish organized labor toward the con-
scription issue.
The high wages Of the war are per
hitting the workingmen In tho unit
ed kingdom to raise the standard Of
living Of their families beyond any
level hitherto known to the British
working classes. II the fathers Of
families are called 10 war. then usual
army allowances must plunge the
families themselves into the depths
where they fioundered before wages
had risen to their prevent level
The entire spirit Of British trade
uninism is opposed to any abandon
ment Of concessions once won from
capitalism. It would be considered
an abandonment IL the heads of fami-
lies were compelled to go to the war
while their dependents were returned
toward the poverty line. The unmar-
ried British workingman therefore
probably will have to be more firmly
convinced of the danger now threat
ening Great, Britain than he is now
convinced. before he becomes al sup-
porter OF compulsory service.

An Error In ReekonInq.

chicago Evening Post: Republicans
Iof the reactionary stripe lulled them
selves into the belief for while that
they could reckon without Roosevelt.
The democrats also thought that
they could reckon without the colonel
as prime antagonist. Democracy
and reactionary republication have
buried the colonel on many an occa-
sion. He has refused TO stay buried.
In truth, he always has been too 1--we
"a person to be fit subject for po-
litical funeral. Roosevelt Is alive be-
cause the things which he advocates
are alive and because he is not afraid
to stand for them In the open where
Americans may see him.
In the fall of 1914 the standpat re-
publicans held wake over Roosevelt
It was wake which outdid in it's un-
somber features that which marked
the preliminaries to the expect
ed burial OF Con the Shaughraun
Today the subject whom they would
have planted seems likely to become
sexton and undertaken. with the sub
ject and the conditions Of burial re-
versed..
Democracy was q-,ite certain that
the sods were well tramped down on
the political grave Of the colonel away
back last spring. There was a flame,
however, where they thought there
was nary spark Of life left. The
man who ought to be politically dead,
according to the democratic thought,
is so very much alive that the demo-
Gratis are trembling for the continued
political existence of certain chief
tain whom they believed had taken q
deep and potent draught Of the elixir
of official life.
Today the democratic and reaction

the last sad obsequies. 1t is hard to
