Most of the members OF the Yer.
mont legislature are patriotic citizens
of the state who would not willingly
sacrifice the interests of Vermont
under any circumstances. AS the end
OF the session draws near these gent
lemen should bear in mind that in a
legislative body most advance is
made by spirit of friendly com
promise Most of the scrapping is
over non-essentials and legislators
should not lose sight of the main
issue in order to win a victory over
some lesser point.

A'vsRmoNTER's EXPERIENCE

A year ago last spring.
| had saved little money,
And | thought twould be the thing
TO go out Westand buya farm
And work with might and main,
Get rich as Gould or Vanderbilt,
And then come back again t
And now I'm back in old Vermont.
I've learned a lesson, too,
cannot tell you half the ills
And troubles I've been through.
My pocket book is empty,
And | haven't got a thing
To show for all I've suffered since
A year ago last spring
have read about Dakota.
With its mighty fields of grain,
And Of tho balmy zephyrs
That were waited DER its plains,
About its gentle showers
And pleasant falls of snow.
And therefore to Dakota
made up my nina 10 go.

sowed my fields with grain.
And waited for the zephyrs
And the gentle falls of rain;
| did not have TO wait in vain.
For on one summer day
There came a gentle zephyr
And blew my house away
watched my fields of growing grain
And figured DER and DER
The bountebus gain that should
have,
A hundred fold or more,
The gold for which I'd sell my grain

Alasl The "hoppergrasses" came
And carried II away
The chills and fever then jumped in
And stayed with me till fall
Then shortly Mr.. Blizzard came
And made Il friendly call.
He brought those pleasant falls o
snow
And kindly buried me
So deep that for u week or more
The sun did not see.
Before that dreary winter passed
nearly starved to death,
And in the spring ! gathered up
What few things had left
And so, by working on the way
At last, worn out and gaunt,

Again in old Vermont
That farm is in the same old place.

And anyone can have Il
If the mortgage they will pay.

LABOR PARTIES
OF WINNIPEG IN
ONE BIG UNION

Winnipeg, Man., Aug. ia conflict
is in progress here between union
labor men over the question whether
the American Federation of Labor. the
Dominion Labor Congress or one big
union shall control labor organizations
in Winnipeg. The struggle is the out
come of the general strike which took
place here in May and June, involv-
ing labor and capital throughout the
Dominion.
A short time ago the Winnipeg
Trades and Labor Council voted to
join one big union by a vote said to
be S,S41 to 705.
AS a result of this action, the Do
minion Labor Congress cancelled the
charter of the Winnipeg Trades and
Labor Council and announced that an
effort would be made to form a new
council in Winnipeg to include the
local organizations opposed to the one
big union plan. Among the organiza :

Last night in Jail I. was climbing

through the bars. She and another
girl were sentenced to one year each for
shoplifting and with four other charg-

he's a thoroughly good man, beloved
