DEMOCRATIC MOVE
(Continued from Pace One)

result of the investigation it has been
disclosed that -Arthur R. Gould, dur
ing the progress of an investigation
conducted by the province of New
Brunswick, testified under oath that
he had paid to J. K. Fleming, then
premier of the province, the sum Of
100000, and the commission, in its
report to the government, has char
acterized this payme-t as a bride.
"The testimony of Mr.. Gould. up
on which Chief Justice McKeown,
of the Province of New Brunswick,
who was the arbitrator in these pro-
ceedings, relied in finding that Mr..
Gould had bribed the premier of New
Brunswick, is taken from the official
report of the evidence.
"As a part of his report, Chief

led by any enumeration OF particu-
| lars, it manifestly will be impossible
in any event to issue new ballots.
Sec. % Of this law provides as
follows for filling vacancies: IF the
time is insufficient therefor, said
nomination may be supplied In the
same manner provided in Sec. %
which provides that the vacancy or
a ballot for U. S. Senator may b.
supplied by the regularly elected
State committee of the party of the
candidate"
Under the law 1t appears, and that
is the opinion of legal authority con-
suited, that the Republican State
committee, in event the HEARING
should result in a decision to remove
the name of the candidate, could de-
eide to retain the name of that can
didate on the ballot. In that event
no stickers would be required.
Should another candidate be named
by the committee it would be neces-
Sary to use stickerS.
Counsel Hinckley issued brief
statement on behalf of the senator
ial candidate, in which he asserted
that the petition evidently was filed
by interests hostile to Mr.. Gould
and for the sole purpose of stirring
up hostility toward him.
Il can say in behalf of Mr.. Gould,
said Mr.. Hinckley, that he filed his
statement of campaign expenses I'M
der oath, and that it is a correct
statement. With this move coming
at such late hour, when all of the
ballots for the election have been
shipped to the various cities and
towns, it would be impossible to re-
move a candidates name from the
ballot even If there were any reason
to do so.
1T is very evident that the petit
ton is solely to stir up hostility for
Mr.. Gould"

Real estate market activity over
the country took pronounced upward
swing during June, according to the
index of that activity compiled
monthly by the National Association
Of Real Estate Boards.
The index based on official reports
of number OF transfers and convey
ances recorded in Al typical cities,
stood at MS for the month of June.
This is II points higher than the
index for May and IL points higher
than the index for June of 1925. 1t is
decidedly the highest index number
reached in the month Of June during
the 10 years, 1916-1926. inclusive, COW
cred by the associations study.
Making allowance for the general
long time trend upward due to popula-
ton increase. it nevertheless indicates
a healthily active state of the general
real estate market.

the expiration OF the first quarter the

through the months of April, May and
June cut the gain down to the esti-
mated 10 per cent.
A loss of per cent in the number
of building permits issued and plans
filed in the first half of 1926, as com

statistics gathered by S. w. Straus

higher than the number issued in
June of 1925. The June figures. more

By Use of Little Ingenuity, One
Can Save Trouble Of Always
Moving Ladder.

In painting the caves Of Houses and
similar places that are rather difficult
to get at, a brush-holder' eliminates
frequent moving of the ladder and
makes the work safer.
A wooden stock q by by 36 inches
in dimension is drilled with A-inch
hole through the center about 2k
inches from one end. A similar hole
is drilled through the thickest part of
the brush handle and a 1% by 3-16
inah round head carriage bolt with a
thumbnut is used to fasten the brush
to the stock, the other end Of which
can be rounded off and smoothed to
form a handle,
A. screweye Is then driven through
the stock and brush handle to prevent
weighing il the thumbnut should
come loose. The knack Of handling
the brush comes readily.

The bedroom furniture is an adapta-
ton of a design used among our co.
lOnial ancestors in the latter part of
the eighteenth century. utilizing the
characteristic sleighbed, which is made
with figured mahogany panels. The
bureau employs the round Colonial
fiuted posts with figured drawer
fronts Over the bureau is n very
fine Chippendale wall mirror. The
dressing table, with it's drop leaves
and standing mirror. is a modern
adaptation of the Duncan Phyfe
period.
Cherry and maple are used in the
smaller bedroom. The bed is re-
production from a quaint New Eng
land type, while the spoon-foot night
table is also a design which originated
in New Englan nd The quaint butter

the finest examples of the Duncan
