Tho new plant whlch Moody and Al
mou aro bulldlng on Mad Rlver ls well
under way and the work ls to be push
ed to completion this fall. The coffer
daui waa put ln last week. shuttlng
the water off from halt of the river
bcd and leavlng the rocKs exposed. A
large force Is at work on the project
now and It will be lncreased to 50
mcn withln a short tlme and duy and
nlght gangs will be put on In a few
wepks.
Anyone drivlng up tho valley can
but be Impressed with the magnltude
of the undertaklng and the posslbill
tles for harnesslng the latent powor
ln this river, whlch untll this com
pany began its development, had been
used for nothlng larger than small
sawmllls. The road ls belng changed
for a distance of three-nuarters of a
mlle, so that it will sklrt along the
hlllslde above the level of the pond.
This pond will be one of the sights
of the valley when it is flooded, as
it will be a mlle and a half long and
very wide. An excelleut vlew will be
afforded from the road.
The new plant is to be a mlle above
the old one and Is at what is known
as the Casey bridge, one of the land-
marks of the valley. The work of
changing the road and drawlng grav
el for the mlxlng of concreto has been
golng on for tho past two months and
there are four ox teams and seven
two-horso teams now at work, though
this number is smaller than what had
been used previously.
The dam is to be of concrete, 32
feet high, glving a Sicad at the water
wheels of C0 feet. A mlxer, driven
by an electric motor, has been set up
on the bauk and it will requlre seven
men to keep it filled with cement and
gravel. The prepared cement will be
conveyed to the dam by means of a
blondln, travellng on a cableway,
spanning the rlver at the dam.
From the dam the water will be
carried to the wheels by a steel pen
stock slx and a half feet In diameter
and 1000 feet long. At the power
liouse, whlch is to be of concrete, the
water will enter a 000 horsepower
wheel, dlrect connected to a revolving
fleld alternatlng current generator, of
900 horsepower. The dam, water
wheels and generator will set on the
solld rock. The contract for the hy
draulic efiulpment and the generator
call for dellvery by October 1, at
whlch tlme is is espected that the
dam will be completed.
The new plant will be a mlle from
the old one and the arrangement ls
such. that the water will be passed
through the new wheels, into the low
er pond and thence through tiie old
wheels, thus uslng it twice, with 110
loss of head or fall ln the process.
Tho company now has contracts for
power nearly to tho capaclty of the
present plant and the surplus power
from tho new plant Is to be marketed
in this city and Northfield. The clec
trlcal arangements will be such that
olther of the water plants or the steara
auxlliary plant ln this city may be
used separately or all of them at one
tlme on one Hne, so that the company
will be In a position to insure flrst
class servlce to their patrons.
A pilo containing 3000 cublc yards
of gravel is already at the slte of the
dam, havlng been drawn during the
winter, and the cement ls belng taken
to the place as fast as needed, com
Ing to Middlesex by rall. All prellm
Inary work has been done now and
the actual constructlon work will be
rushed during tho perlod of low wat
er. The coffer dam sustalned a severe
test last week,- at the tlme of the
heavy rain. The rlver rose so that
water ran over the top of tho dam,
but 110 damage was sustalned.
Moody and Almon now furnish day
power ln this city and all the power
used in the stoue sheds in Northfield,
as well as the street and commerclal
llghting of that place. Tho system ls
owned by O. E. Moody of Waterbury,
a well known lumber man and capi-
tallst and G. II. Almon of this city.

Orleans County lllstorlcal SocJcly
lunc G.
Barton, May 28. Increaslng inter
est In tho centennlal celobratlon of
tho Important hlstorical cvent of tho
runnlng away of the waters of "Long
Pond" In Glover, set for .Tune C, by
tho Orleans County Hlstorical Socl
ety, was gtven new Hfe Friday when
It was announccd that A. C. Phllllps,
of Glover, a descondent of one 'of
those present at the lettlng out of the
pond on June G, 1310, had dlscovercd
the old mlllslte of tho Aaron Wllson
grlstmlll swcpt away hy tho rushlng
waters on that eventful day a century
ago. No trace of the slte has beforo
been found, but thero seems to be
little dbubt about the dlscovery of
Mr. Phllllps belng- the long sought
rulns.
Some of the stone watl foundatlon
ls clearly vlslble, standlng ln one
place nearly slx feet high, though
most of the wall Is ln a heap of rulns.
A part of the old dam made of logs
and a trace of the cnnal mado to carry
the wnter to the old overshot water
wheel from tho dam is vlslble. All ls
grown over with trees and the mlll
slte Itself Is in a small cedar swamp
some distance from the stream. This
probably accounts for lts non-dis-covery
by searchers before and lts lo
catlou away frgin Uie sU'?am niay bg
aeeounted for by the fact that tfie
channel of the stream and the entlre
topography of the valley was chang
ed by the gullylng of the lmmense
body of rushlng water.
It will be remembered that this
pond, nearly two mlles long, over a
half mlle wide and very deep, was
located ln the towns of Glover and
Greensboro at the very top of the
Lamoille and Barton river dlvide, and
antedating 'June G, 1810, was known
as "Long Pond," 'but slnce that date
has been known as "Runaway" or
"Dry" pond. The entlre waters of this
pond were released on that date ln
an attempt to cut a channel to the
north In the hope of Increaslng the
water Ilow of the stream flowlng
north to the Barton rlver system, at
though the natural outlet was to the
south, lts waters 'forming one of the
head branches of the Lamoille rlver.
When the water was let into the ar
tlllcial channel just cut, is gulled
out the light sandy soil so rapidly
that the banks began falllng ln and
the mcn who had been doing the dlg
ging had to run for their lives or be
drawn into the outrushlng torrent of
water. In a short tlme the entlre body
ofwate r had left its bounds and
swept the valley nbrth for ,23 mlles
to lake Memphremagog, tearing up
the forests and sweeping away what
few bulldings had at that early date
been erected In its path.
The celebratlon on June C, con
slsts of a carefully prepared hlstori
cal address by Hon. F. W. Baldwin,
of Barton, a dlsplay of varlous rel-
Ics Incldent to the event, the unvelling
of a granlte marker in the dry bed of
the pond beslde the road whlch runs
the entlre length of,the pond, remarks
by descendents. band music, etc. It
will be an eventful day for Orleans
county and the descendents of those
present at the cutting of the channel.

Lunenburg, June 1. Earller in the
scason it had been pretty generaliy
conceded that Essex county would
support tho candldacy of Dr. John A,
'Mead, of Rutland, for the Republican
nomlnatlon for Governor. The slt-
uatlon today, however, dlffers very
materlally from that of a few weeks
ago. The change of sentiment ls due,
in part at least, to a recent vlslt made
to this town by Frederlck G. Floet-
wood, of Morrisville, also a candl
date for the Governorshlp. Mr. Fleet
wood made an excellent speech whlch
was very well recelved and won many
friends for hlm.
It has been reported that Senator
Martin Van Buron Vanco of this town
who represonted Essex county ln the
Senate of 1908, promlsed to dellver
Essex county for Mead. This promlso
apparently dld not pleaso eomo other
Essex county men and they deterinln
ed to show Senator Vance that ho was
not ln a position to dellver tho goods.
Now there ls a hot flght on In town
with excellent prospects that Fleet
wood delegates will be elected here
It ls not et cortaln how many other

ernment passed and then came the
Declaratlon of Independence when
tlme and won the admlratlon of the
whole world was established. Those
men, the signers of that declaratlon,
were, as Hoar sald, 'The greatest na-tion-bullders
the world has ever
known.'
"Llberty met its flrst check because
all Christendom was giveu over to
the slave trade. From the tlme or
WUlIara and Mary to George the
Third, colonlal gov.e'rnors were com
manded to keep a s'upply of market
able negroes on band to sell to the
coionies. Mother England forced
slaves upon us. All the States ex-
cept Georgia and South Caroliua de
clared agalnst the traft'ic but the gov-
ernors were instructed to veto aud
forbld such laws.
"In the next eleven years after the
Declaratlon of Independence during
whlch we began the esabllshment of
a ceutrallzed government, we came
agaln to the same evll. Seveu of the
13 States abollshed slavery. Vermont
after lts separation from New York,
wrote Into its orilnal constltutlon a
ueciarauon against tranic withln Its
bordors, the flrst State to take this
actlon. But when the constltutlon
was presented for ndoptlon, it was of
supreme importance tlint all the
States should jolu ln a union and our
forefathers, thiuking tho slave trade
on the downward path, allowed Its
recognitiou untll 1S08 ln order that
Georgia and South Carollna might
unltc with tho sister States. Senti
ment rau high, however. Mason's
prophecy, Provldence punlshes na
tional sin by nntlonal caiamlty,' was
perfectly fnlfllled by our scqurglng
ln the slxtlps. To show how deeply
rooted was the sentiment agalnst sla
very, Jefferson's ordlnance forblddlng
the traffic in tho W'estern lands wnsi
dofeated by a majorlty of one.
"In 18Q8 came tho Louisana pur-
chaso and tho luvontlon of tho cot
ton gln whlch rovolutiontzcd tho cot
ton trndo of tho South. Profltablo
under tho old reglme It be-
becamo far moro so under tho new.
In addltlon, tho hand loom hnd been
replaced ln Great Brltalu by the pow
er loom and England wns crylng for
cotton. Slaves trlpled lu value. In
1800, wo woro ralslng 155,000 bales;
In 1830, 977,000 bales nnd after Great
Brltaln took off tho cotton duty, wo
were ralslng flve mllllou bales. Cot
ton was klng. That whlch had beon
nn abomlnablo crliuo ln tho eyes of
Jefferson became n rlghteous insti
tutlon lu tho eyes of church and
State. The effect of slavery was to
looic down upon labor and deem the
laborer n menlal, Calhouu termed'
slavery au envlable condltion of the
laborlng man. Slave marrlages were
not recognized and tho breaklng up
of famllles was countenanced. Politl
ca'lly, the South became an ollgarchy.
Labor was degraded and the poor
white sprung up at that time exlsts
today.
"The North, slow to rouse, rose to
the couflict between darkness and
light and Abraham Llncoln's electlou
to the presidency In 18C0 was the
death knell of slavery. Secesslon was
all that was left for the South If she
retained her slave tratfic. 'Our new
government, said Alexander II.
Stephens, 'Is founded upon the corn-
erstone that the negro is not equal to
the white man and subsorvlence ls
his natural and normal state.'
"That was the Issue confronting us
when the North rose in a body to
preserve tho Natlon. It was a crucial
iieriod in the world's bistory. The
progress of Its civlitzatlou was at
stake. Liborty was attacked ln tbe
home of its friends. Llncoln's call
for troops was answered from ocean
to ocean to wipe out this dark blot
upon our hlstory. The North was
novcr so strong as when stimulated
by defeat. Elghty thousand njen
came ln a month to retrieve the pen
insular defeat of 1862. Sixty thou
sand men were coiumonly ralsed at
one call.
"Tho contesi area covered would
overlap much of tho map of Europe.
They say we spend largo sums of our
army and navy. Our haltour reven-
ues from tariff sources are spent upon
our armles and navies. but tho army
of tho dead of the slxties is tive tlmes
is great as that of tho llving today,
God gave us tho victory. The slgul-
flcance of that achirvement as tho
close of the wnr Influenced the na
tlons of tho world. Macaulay and oth
er thinkers had watched to seo tho
sunderlng of a free govcrninont maln
talned by the people but we not only
nbollshed the slave traffic but wo pre
served tho Natlon and we galned tho
world's confldonce. England has cx
tended her franchlse, lance ls n Re
publlc, Germany lias a well-founded
democrntlc idea, Itaiy lias n constl
tutional Parllament, Austrla aud
Hungary are maklng progress, Rus
sla Is breaklng the hold of tho Czar
ln surrendor to God's movement.
lEighty million people have benefltted
iby what you men of the sixties did.
"Twenty inlilions of people from
foreign lands have settled lu our
Western lands. Capltal lias been re
leased and Invested in rallroads. Our
farming area equals the total extent
of Great Brltaln, France, Belglura,
Spaln, Denmark, etc. When the war
opened we had 25,000,000 miles of
railroad. Today we could draw elght
llnes about the globe and the equator
with our Unlted !!utes mlleage. Our
mlning corporations exceed those of
other nations. Our manitfacturies
have risen from nothlng to what is
almost supremacy. More men in
Massachusetts own their own roofa
than in Great Britain. The last ceu
sus shows 48 per cent of men of tho
United States own their own homes
and 78 per cent are free from ea
cumbrance. "Gloriously have we wiped out the
uattonul sin but bigness does uot
make a great natlon. As much as we
glory In the American spirlt based on
recognitlon of the Individual, the
fatherhood of God and the brother
liood of man, we esteem more highly
those prlnclples under whlch our
country has become a world power.
Vo have tho broadest liberty under
law. Our religlous freedom is per
fect. "Tho people of the Natlon will nev-
er forget this day, our'passover day
when we passed out of tho gloom of
a natlonal sin Into the confidence of
God's face and repeated our Declara
tlon of Independeuce. When the last
survivor ot war ia dead, these little
ones will keep up Memorlal Day with
flags and tlowers whlch are more en
durlng than monuments of marble or
bronze. t
"Do Justice to those men who went
out boys and came back rlch ln ser
vice. Come out year by year to hon
or those mcn who lald down their
lives In a contest whlch has done
more and will do more for the world
than any other contest ever waged.
"And, In closlng, the achlevement
wo glory ln, tho country wo glory ln,
the South glory ln also. If there were
a foreign wnr threatenlng today, the
South would give her last son as wil
