LOCAL SPEAKERS TALKED.
Men Representing Five Phases of Activ
ity Condemned Liquor Dealing.

Rev. ]. W. Barnett of the Congrega-
tional church presided over the rally in
the opera house last evening and after a
prayer by Rev Edgar Grassland OF the
Presbyterian church he announced an in
novation in the shape of five l0-minute
addresses from men in as many different
phases of local activity to take the place
OF the usual addresses by the clergy.
c. S. Andrews was the first speaker and
he gave the business mems point of view
on the subject of the open saloon. Mr..
Andrews said he regarded the saloon as
an evil and only an evil. He gave sta
tistics from the records of the city of
Barre beginning with the first year of
the open saloon 5000 and continuing
to the present time to show not only
that there are more arrests for drunken
ness with the saloon but also that our
taxes for the support of the poor are
greater when the vote is yes" He con
siders alcohol as remover not only OF
stains upon garments that we wear but
OF the garments themselves as well He
attacked the argument that the saloon
does away with the blind pigs" by quot
ing statistics from the city Of Boston TO
show that numbers of the latter existed
alongside of the saloons. He also stated
the position of several big business con
Germs who refuse to employ drinking |
men.
The next Speaker gave the lawyers |
point Of view. This was discussed by I
D, II. Carpenter, former resident of
Bellows Falls. This speaker dealt with
he question from practical point OF
view. No man wants the saloon next to

ABOUT THE STATE
HAPPENINGS OF INTEREST FROM
DIFFERENT SECTIONS

From the recently issued annual re-
port of the town of Holland IL was
learned that il has 81 900 in its treasury
and no debt.
+. f. Goodwin of Milton Boro had a
freak calf. Its head was the shape OF
dogs, with ears like dog. IL was
blind, although there were dents in the
face where eyes should be. II was also
bob-taied like q rabbit. The animal
did not live.
The Iadd farm in Grand Isle has been
in possession OF that family for lis
years, having been first settled by An
drew Ladd when he came from Conneeti-
cut in 1893. 1t has meyer passed outside
the family and is now occupied by his
grandson, II. w. Ladd, and his son. There
are several farms in Grand Isle which
have been in the families for more
than half century.

Foolish Argument"

"a surplus is Republican, a deficit
Democratic;" Democratic extrava,
gance, Republican economy" "Repub.
lican prosperity, Democratic hard
times" these and similar ancient sa-
cred texts of pre-Adamite Republican,
ism crowd into the mind as the st.
Louis Globe-Democrat. gazing MOURN
fully from the battlements of the bat
tered citadel of protection" utters
these words of woe:
Democratic papers are asking what
the Republican party would have done
in the face Of the financial condition
that confronts the present administra,
ton. The question is a vain one, for
If the Republican party had been in
power this condition would not have
confronted u.s."
We believe 1t. because 1t is impos-
sible. But why veil the awful truth ?
Why spare the erring Democracy the
c~hastisement it merits. If the Repub,
lican party had been in power, war
wouldn't have dared to break out.

NOT TRUE PATRIOTS
Republicans Put Party Before
Country.
Money Needed for National Defense
Should Be Voted Without oulb-
bIe-Democratie Record ls
One of Honor.

The most foolish exhibition Of parti-
sanship witnessed in this country for
many a day is that participated in by
the Republicans of the house and SEN
ate when they voted solldly against
the extension of the emergency war
taxes for N year.
1t is no excuse for this
to say that the measure was partisan
and that If the Republicans had been
in power they would have handled it
differently. The measure was not
partisan. If the Republicans had
been in control they would have been
compelled to take similar action. In
TACT, the emergency war taxes are the
same In principle as those levied by
Republicans during the Civil and the
Spanish-American wars.
The pretense that high or low tar,
ms, tariffs for plumber or tariffs for
revenue, had anything to do with this
question or the situation that produced
1t was equally false. The emergency
taxes were made necessary by the war
In Europe, which has dislocated COM
merce and industry to an extent never
before known.
Several weeks before the war with
Spain began, every Democrat in the
house of representatives voted with
the Republican majority In favor of a
$5O,OO0,000 appropriation for national
defense. The money now derived from
the emergency taxes is just as neces-
sary to national honor and security as
the great fund that was placed unre-
servedly in the hands of President Nc
Kinley in 1898. The first step toward
national defense is to keep a solvent
treasury.

0LD-TlME FALLACY EXPOSED
Republican Hieh-Tariff Doctrine Has
Been conclusiveIy Proved to
Be of No Worth.

1t is announced by a friendly inter-
prefer of Wall street sentiment that
the street would welcome even the
nomination of Colonel Roosevelt by
the Republicans If that would unite
the party, "as it ices no other way to
a re-establishment Of the high tariff"
The same news columns carry this
extract from al address by George e.
Roberts, twice director of the United
States mint under different Republican
administrations and now associated
with a leading Wall street bank:
IF anything has been clearly demon
strated in recent months 1t Is that you
cannot have a permanently one-sided
trade. You o reach the point
where you have to lend to your GUS
toner to enable him to continue his
purchases. and evidently that policy
cannot go on indefinitely
This is now not merely an obvious
theoretical truth. 1t is a truth which
is being driven home with practical
force by every days developments in
the country's fast-expanding foreign
trade. The permanently one-sided
trade" which is the theory and the
end of the old Republican tariff pol.
icy has gone for good If America is to
hold its new position in the commerce
of the world.
AS against this Wall street forecast
of a presidential campaign to re-estab.
fish extortionate tariffs there stands
the fact that a great body of the Re
publican party and even a section OF
Wall street are being educated away
from this position by the mighty force
of a new experience in economic prac.
tice.

Mrs. Frances Willard Munds Is a
state senator in Arizona. She was
elected from Prescott and is chairman
of the committee on education and
public institutions. She has greatly
enjoyed the work and has been treat
ed with great courtesy by the male
members. She has been called on
twice to preside in the senate.
Mrs. Munds was born in California
and was reared in Nevada. At the age
of thirteen abe went to Pittsfield, Me-,
and entered the Maine Central insti-
tute in the spring term Of 1882. She
took a scientific course and was gradu-
ated in 1885.
Soon after graduating she went to
Arizona, where her family was located.
She taught school two years and then
married John L. Munds, for many
years engaged in the stock business
and mining. Her husband was eight
years sheriff of Yavapai county.
He and Mrs. Munds are Democrats.

FOR PoLlcY's SAKE.

d you subscribe to the theory that
virtue is its own reward?"
oh, yes" replied the practical poll
tician. But a man in public life can't
afford to be too virtuous."
I'm surprised to hear you say that"
It's true, nevertheless. Voters have
a tendency to suspect a mar who is
too good and an ofhceholder cannot
retain their support unless he has
enough weaknesses to prove that he is
still human"

Problem for Republicans.

Many Republicans of the straites
sect must be perplexed in the ex-
IRENE. These bumper" crops. this
plethora of money. this monstrous
commerce, this revived business can't
really have come under a Democratic
administration. This so-much-talked-
of prosperity must be a dream, a
phantom of false morning. 1t is in
conceivable that the United States
can thrive without a ~heaven-high tar,
III and a Republican administration.
Democratic prosperity! Why, the
phrase Is a contradiction.

STONE, WTALIZER OF MONEY

When the National City bank an

been selected to pilot the new $4,000
900 company known as the American
international corporation, that has set
itself to the task of healing the finan-
cial wounds that the world suffers
as the result Of the present war, peo-
pie outside of that mysterious world
known as high financial circles
wanted to know who Mr.. Stone was.
what he had done and what he pro-
posed doing.
But when President Frank A.
vanderlip of the National City bank
further announced that this same
Charles A. Stone was "a vitalizer of
money" there was surprise as well as
curiosity.
For twenty-five of his fifty years
Mr.. Stone has been known through
out the United States and Canada as

GREAT MAKER OF POWDER

Someone down East has suggest
ed that T. Coleman du Pont would be
a good man for the Republicans to
nominate for the presidency, and to
the people of Delaware, at least, the
idea does not seem incongruous. Gen.
eral du Pont is now ffty-two years
old, active, wiry and aggressive, al
most nervously aggressive it may be
said; the type of man who knows
what he wants to do and straightway
starts about it; the type of man, fur
thermore, who possesses thorough
training for his work and wide ex.
perience in doing it. He was born
in Louisville, KY, December II, 1853,
son of Bidermann du Pont and Ellen
s. Coleman.
AS a lad he attended Urbana uni
versity in Ohio, then went to Boston,
where he studied at the Chauncey
school. He finally entered the Mas.
