Great Attendance CT Church People at
Globe Theatre Sunday Evening.
The last and most enthusiastic tenn
perance rally of the campaign was
held at the Globe theatre Sunday eve
ming, all the churches uniting in a
union service. Over 500 people were
present and they showed their appre-
ciating by cheering every speaker at
his close as well as applauding the
Academy orchestra for their excellent
work. Rev. Paul ID. Moody had
charge of the service, making an earn
est appeal at the close to all voters to
vote for the abolition of the licensed
saloon in Vermont on election day.
The speakers were Rev. F. S. Toll
man, Rev. c. L. Eaton, Rev Dr.
George w. G. Hill of New Britain,
Conn, and Rev. George A. Martin.
Each took a different phase of the
subject and each presented strong ar
guments for the adoption of state
wide prohibition. DIR. Hill was warmly
cheered as he began to speak, pre-
facing his forceful address by the re-
mark that it almost gave him stage
fright to see such a large audience at
a Sunday evening service in st. Johns
bury. He spoke principally upon the

Next Tuesday the board of county
commissioners will hold a conference
at Okanogan with the general public
at which will be taken up the propo-
sition of dividing the county into "a
road districts. The indication are that
about every section of the county will
be represented at the meeting, if the
travelling is such that people can
make the pilgrimage to the county
seat, and that the proposed new and
sweeping departure will be threshed
over pretty thoroughly, as there is Il
decided difference Of opinion as to
the ACCESSIBILITY of making such a
change at this time. The strongest ar
gument against the change is the ad-
ditional cost in salaries, for the rad
ical increase in road supervisors means
more expense for which the county
concrete results. 1t means the diver
sion of a large sum from physical
construction to the upkeep of an army
of paid officials. What is wanted in this
county is an economical administra-
ton of the road funds, insofar that for
every dollar spent some slight i'm
provement at least may be observed
in the highways, which at the best are
none too good. Everybody knows what
it will be with the average road super
visor where there is a host of them
employed, looking out more for the
salary than they are for accomplish
ment. We are doing quite well just
now under the present system and the
change of the system is an experiment
that but few up this way are anxious
to see inaugurated. The concensus Of
opinion among those whom we have
heard express themselves upon the
subject is against the proposed
change, but what the commissioners
will do about it is past finding out
until it is done. 1t is felt that their
final action will be influenced mater
tally by the views that may be eX-
pressed by the tax payers who are
present at the meeting Tuesday.

The sale of two lots in the business

The sale of two lots in the business
part of town last week for a consider
alton of $500 was not a stupendous
transaction, as real estate deals in
larger cities generally run, but con-
sidering the times and the size of the
town, it was an important and signif-
icant transaction. The fact that the
purchase was made by resident, and
business man, and not an outside in
weston shows that the people have
confidence in Oroville. Another en-
couraging feature of the sale was
that others were considering the in
vestment, indicating that confidence
in the town is not confined to a single
individual. The lots are favorably To-
Gated and there are improvements on
the same that probably cost in the
neighborhood of $4,000, when new, but
that was some time ago. That the in
vestment was good and safe one, no
one can gainsay. That the town will
forge ahead is as certain as the evolu-
ton Of time, and the property will ap-
preciate in value as the town grows.
The man who secures Oroville real
estate at present prices Is making no
mistake nor taking no chances, as he
is certain in time to realize handsome
ly upon his investment through nat
ural increment.

That is beside the question. Any Amer

nractical.. He has wide learning put
does not know how to apply 1t to the

rishes beautiful and lofty ideals and
is gifted with the art of literary ex-

single workable idea to apply tc the
conduct of government that he can De
sure of overnight. He entered pubic
life long after he reached maturity anu
devoid of practical experience 10 the
business of government. After nearly
four years as president he now begins
to learn that he has been following
the wrong policies from the first and
is unable to say what he will do to-
morrow, or where the course he FOL
lows today may lead us. He has learn
ed that he has been wrong heretofore,
and, while that Is great deal, he can
not now say that he believes firmly he
is right, today or tomorrow that he will
not be entirely lost. With him the ar
gument against swapping horses In

Wilson typifies the very worst that
American colleges and universities do
for our young men and women. They
cram them with learning that is val
uleless in the battle of life and turn
out upon society that most distressing
ly handicapped; that most pitiful,
helpless, useless individual, the edu-
Gated incompetent.
