New York, July 22.-Apart from
the comparative strength and ac-
tivity of railway shares, trading in
the stock market today was duh
and insignificant
All classes of transportations
figured in the irregular advance of
one to two points, but the princi-
pal beneficiaries were standard is
sues comprising the transconti-
mental coal and cotton carrying
groups.
Representative steels. equip
ments, oils and kindred issues were
steady to firm in the first half of
the session, but forfeited most OF
their moderate gains in the gradual
reaction of the final hour. Sales
amounted to 100000 shares.
The money market took further
heed of the lower discounts fixed
by federal reserve banks and the
Bank of England. Call loans fell
to 5 per cent from their opening
rate of 51s and offerings of time
money were freer, with liberal pur-
chases of commercial paper.
International credits also regis
tered moderate improvement, al
though dealings in that quarter
were negligible. Exchange on Lon
don rallied and the German mark
was firmer. presumably in connec-
ton with the corsummation of the
first commercial credit in this
market. ......
Mercantile conditions. as report
ed from the larger distributing GEN.
ters were of a more hopeful tenor,
but the industrial situation was
again clouded by price concessions
in steel and copper. Reports OF
the cancellation of foreign orders
for copper lacked confirmation.
Bonds were relatively more ac-
tive than stocks and the tone for
almost all issues was firm to strong.
The Liberty division closed mainly
at gains and the new French 7ks
hardened on closing of the sub
scription books. Rails improved,
with Burlington 61as leading on
their advance to par. Total sales,
par value, $12,250,000.

ing the thing an artistic and financial
success. That being the ease, there
could, of course, be nothing but sue
cess providing the atmospheric condi-
lions were suitable. Close on the heels
of the Barton cooperative effort was
one put forth by the people OF New
port, together with people in other
communities in the county, toward
raising a hospital fund Pledges had
been secured for the amount of $780,
900, and on top of that a popular
drive for subscriptions brought the
fund up to more than $4,000, in add
ton to which there is an endowment
fund Of approximately $4,000, SO
general was the response to the APP
peal for contributions that the New
port Express and Standard is inclined
to believe that the hospital drive
might be duplicated again and again
in Newport without draining the re-
sources or money needs of the COM
munity to any great extent" Surely
it is a sizeable sum which the pro-
iectors of the Newport hospital have
at their disposal and a fitting testi-
monial to the public spirit of the com
munity and its outlying territory.
ANY community which is able to rally
to common cause in such praise
worthy manner has reason to be proud
of the effort, not only as single &C
complishment but as an augur OF still
greater possibilities when the occa'
sion may arise. The Newport paper
closes its comment on the new spirit
revealed by saying:
Newport is learning how to dc
things o-operatively. Newport has
resources in men, money, location and
in latent powers which is only begin
ming to find expression in common
purpose through such efforts as the
hospital undertaking Newport is find
ing herself, Keep your eye on New
port.
Thus we see that northern Vermont
is making rapid advance in the knowl
edge as to the benefits Of community
co operation. Would that all Other
sections of Vermont might be awak
ened along a similar line. Then how
Vermont would boom.

Staying on the Job.

If ever there was a law which had
become a dead letter it is the statute
of 1856 which provided a penalty lot
congressman who sbsented themselves
from their posts without good reason.
This statute, which for nearly three
quarters of a century has remained un-
repealed and unenforced, required the
secretary of the Senate and the ser
peant at arms of the House to deduct
from the monthly payments OF salaries
TO members the amount of their salar-
les for days on which they had been
absent unless for sickness. Some one
has excavated this statute and estl-
mated at several hundred thousand
dollars the money which might have
been saved to the treasury by its appii-
cation to the present session Inc
Washington correspondent OF the New
York Herald suggests that more lmpor-
tant than this comparatively small saw
ING "would be the constant reminder
IA members of the need for diligence
as we'll as economy. 1t is believed that
sessions of Congress might be snort
ened, that legislation would be more
carefully handled, that appropriations
would be more closely trimmed, and
that close application rather than lay
attention to sessions might result.
Perhaps. But there is little gained by
considering what might be the result OF
a process which is admittedly out OF
the question. What the present sltua-
ton calls for is a quickening of con-
science among the members OF both
branches of Congress. They need a
keener realization of their opportunity
and their duty. They have been put in
responsible official position at crit
zeal time in the history of the country
and the world. They should be proud
and glad of the chance to be OF great
public service. No such sordid motive
as the possibility of being docked OF
their salaries should count for as much
with them as the eountry's apprecia
ton of the men who, through the bis
tering heat of midsummer at Wash
ington, stay on their jobs, and give
themselves whole -heartedly to the work
for which they have been chosen.--Bos'
ton Herald.

There Is no doubt that the series
of international collegiate athletic

sentatives of American and British
universities has a decided tendency to-
ward cementing the cordial relations
between he great mass Of people in
those two countries BY intermingling
the athletes become better acquainted
with the customs and ideals of the
people of the hitherto little known
nation-little known as far as close
relationship is concerned; and the sth-
letes, in turn. pass on their new ideas
to a constantly widening circle in each
country. It cannot &c expected that
the wave OF good feeling resulting from
the contests will sweep over an entire
country, but it can have its good ef.
feet on a considerable part Of each
country. The invasion now being made
BY British university athletes in the
United States should be productive of
much good in bringing about a better
understanding between these two great
English speaking nations, the real
leaders of the world to-day.

community will regret very much to
near of the death of Colonel L. p.
Miller, who formerly lived about five

and chivalrous. From every point
OF view he was a valuable and useful
citizen.
