GOVERNMENT SHOWING VERY
 POOR

The government census gives Car lisle only 606 population which is less than 100 increase in the past ten years. There is good reason to be- lieve this figure is away off as nearly half of the town has been built iii the past ten years. Many residences have been built and such a thing as vacant house is out of the question The fact is, the census was not accu- rately taken, and our Board of Com merce should take some action and have correct census taken while the question is fresh in the minds of the citizens. A census of the new ad- ditions that have been incorporated should also be taken at the same time and we believe the town will show nearer 1500 than 606 as given out by the government. There is not busi- toward paying for the work, and someone who is acquainted with the town and who has resided here dur ing the past ten years should be em- ployea to do the work.

: ed Press Assertion there was no in
tention to fire machine gun into a
crowd here on Wednesday, and that
( the incident was really mishap, is
made by French officer who witnessed
/ it. Fear on the part of French sol
/ dier that the crowd intended to rush
| the patrol in the street led to the trag.
edy.
This man, it is declared, put a belt
of cartridges into the gun for the pur-
pose OF firing one shot to disperse the
crowd. The explosion Of the gun, how
ever, caused the soldier in charge of it
to become excited and the whole belt
was fired. 1t was explained by the
officer that every care had been taken
to prevent a repetition of the "acei-
dent"
Inspection Of the SO machine guns
brought to Frankfort by French troops
has been made and it is said none Of
them were found defective or to show
a tendency to fire upon the insertion of
the cartridge belt All of them were
used during the war Accounts of the
incident have stated that the safety
catch of gun was defective and that
il began to fire automatically as soon
as the belt was placed in position.
Twenty of those who were Injured dur
ing the fusillade were only slightly
wounded. Two new French proclama-
tions appeared here to-day, one deny
ing yesterdays rumor that the troops
would be withdrawn and the other for

POLAND WAITS ON RUSSIA.
Relative to Proposed Peace Conference
Between Two.

Warsaw, April POLAND awaits a
reply from the Russian bolsheyik gov.
eminent relative TO the proposed peace
conference between the two countries
and believes further exchange of notes
concerning an armistice and the place
where the conference will meet are use
less, said a wireless message sent To
Moscow by NJ. Patek, Polish foreign
minister, to-day. This note may be the
last relative to peace negotiations with
the bolsheviki to be sent by Poland, it
is said
"Some phrases OF the soviet govern
ment's last wireless Dispatch said NJ.
Patek's note, compel me to point out
that the use OF sentences which are not
of sufficient seriousness can make diff
ficult. and even impossible, peace ne
gotiations.'
Moscow was informed by the for
eign minister that. owing to the fact
that the soviet notes were not received
in time it will be impossible to begin
the proposed negotiations before April
II even if both sides should agree.

AGAIN STATES
HIS BELIEFS
Candidate for Governor of
Vermont Is for Per-
sonal Liberty
STATE RIGHTS Is
SUPPORTED BY HIM
He Is Opposed to the 18th
Amendment and the
Volstead Act

Ludlow, April Frank w. Agan's
campaign for governor was formally
opened here to-day with the publica
tion of his political creed or platform
in his home newspaper, the Ludlow
Tribune, This is the first official an
nouncement of what Mr. Agan proposes
to run on and constitutes the shortest
platform yet announced by any candi-
date for governor. 1t is divided into
two parts, what the candidate is for
and what he is against" 1t reads as
follows:
I Believe In
Personal liberty, the constitution of
Vermont and the right of every state
to administer its own internal affairs; ;
The submission to the voters of
every amendment that infringes or in
vades our state constitution;
A road law that will permit scien-
tifc, statewide plan for better high
ways and more help for town roads;
A lump sum for legislators and short
er legislative sessions.
Am Opposed To
The rule Of any minority;
The 18th amendment for federal pro-
hibition and the Volstead enforcement
act
Any further waste of public funds;
Patchwork roadmaking
If nominated and elected, | will do
all | can to further thsse ends.
In an interview, Mr.. Agan made it
clear that, although he is opposed to
the 18th amendment and, if elected,
will do all in his power to have it re-
pealed and resubmitted, he recognizes
it as the present fundamental law of
the land and urges all good citizens to
support and obey it.
The candidate said further that he
proposed to take advantage of his con-
stitutional right TO freedom of speech,
which guarantees to the people the
right "of writing and publishing their
sentiments concerning the transactions
of government" He would therefore
to insert advertisements in
state newspapers from time to time
and pay for them at established rates.
Mr.. Agan stated further that he was
running his own campaign, absolutely
without any strings attached, and
would neither take orders nor accept
from any other source.
He will obey the primary law in every
particular.
