NEW TEMPERANCE GOSPEL.

Temperance work today is very

mental exhortations of yesterday"
pertinently remarks an exchange. I'm
these days. when efficiency is SO gen.
eral watchword in the world of bust
ness and labor, we are finding not SO
directly that a man is knave who
drinks to excess. or even as all, as that
he is fool. A runner who ties a
weight about his leg is no greater
Ounce than the workingman or the
merchant who puts dram OF liquor
into his digestion or his brain. II Is
capable OF proof by figures and dia.
grams that the drinker Of even an
occasional glass of wine or beer or
whisky Injuries the work of both his
hands and his mind. while the habit
ual drinker sews up his mental and
manual machinery permanently. This
is the gospel of the now temperance

IT was very real problem. In the
seven states that recently went dry
there are thousands that meet the
same conditions. They are cast adrift
upon a wholly uncharted sea and they
see nothing beyond.
answered: my friend, when Mon
tana goes dry, and as sure as you and
l live Montana is going dry. that lot
will remain Just where 1t is. Unless
there is fire, and against that you
can continue to protect your property
by insurance as you are doing now,
your building will remain whore 1t Is.

commodity-to the very same people
who patrouize you now and receive
in exchange the same kind OF dol

not thought that Mr.. Brown over

nightly and spends his money, may
come in and buy pair OF shoes for
his little Mary. who sadly needs them.
This purchase on his part will not un-
fit him to earn another days wage
for his small son. Jimmie. And then
perhaps he will come in the next
night and buy a sack Of -four, taking
It home to his wife to use in making
bread. As for Mr. Brown himself. he
will go to bed and get good nights
sleep and the next day he will be
able to earn enough more funds to
buy a sack Of potatoes. Do you not
see that you may sell from the same
building to the came people who now
patronize you and get even more
money? ! am sure, too. that your
wife will be happier and your chill
dren will no longer be Stunned. We
are not fighting you. my friend. but
we are fighting your kind Of business.
Why not try to get into something
honorable before the storm comes

He answered earnestly: Perhaps I'd
better. Anyhow, I'll consider It.

John Chimney, Aged ", Father of Water
Superintendent Chimney.

John Chimney, father of Water Super
intendent John j. Chimney of Montpelier,
died suddenly at IL o'clock to-day at the
home of his son.in-law, Mr.. Monahan,
81 Court street in that city. James
Haley, another son-in- law, went to the
house this forenoon at 10 o'clock and,
noticing that Mr.. Chimney did not seem
well, called in John J. Chimney. While
they were in the room, the old gentle
man passed away, probably from heart
trouble or shock.
Mr.. Chimney was born in County Clare,
Ireland, II years ago and came to the
United States and to Montpelier in 1855.
He worked on a farm for time be-
tween Montpelier and Barre and later

mings' tannery concern. For the past
dozen years he had been employed by
the Montpelier street department.
In 1869 Mr.. Chimney married Elizabeth
Sexton. Three children were born to
them, John j. Chimney, Mrs. James Ha

BLAMED THE RAILROAD.
For What Ever Freight Congestion May
Exist in New England.

Boston, Jan s.--The freight situation
in New England, which has resulted in
an embargo on many lines of shipments,
was discussed by railroad officials, port
directors and business men at con-
ference called by the transportation COM
mittee OF the Chamber OF Commerce.
The port directors expressed the belief
that the real efficiency was the absence
OF sufficient ocean shipping due to the
withdrawal Of so many vessels for war
purposes.
r.. Van Immersion, OF the Boston and
Albany, said that 6.400 cars were headed
for his road from connecting lines. He
added that ii the road had six tracks
il could handle the business.
George Wood. Of the New York, New
Haven and Hartford, reported that 1900
ears We're consigned to points on his
line from places east of Pittsburg. A.
a. Crane, of the Boston and Maine, said
that between 5000 and 1000 cars were
coming to his road from points east of
Buffalo,
Mr.. Wood denied that the New Haven
was responsible for any coal shortage
in New England. He expressed the opin-
ion that relief from the general embar
90 conditions would come next week.
