G GLEASON, Montpelier Vt. g 2,624 ,18 copies, the largest paid circulation of any daily paper In this section. IS :,j?CJ s , af t It is stated that the recent visit of King Edward VII to 1'aris is the first time an English king has viHited there since l.V.'O, when Henry VIII and Francis I met. Queen Victoria, however, visited 1'aris during her reign. After finishing a tour of inspection in the United States General Baden-J'owell said that while the United .States cavalry horses are superb the men are not up to his expectations in vhvsidue. We are sorry to loarn that but General Baden- Powell will have to admit that the United tstates cavalrymen can fight for all that. Allen M. Fletcher, the representative to the legislature from Cavendish, a banker and good all around man, has been spoken of for governor. Mr. Fletcher gained con siderable of a reputation at the legislature by conscientious work on the lieenselaw and by characterizing himself as "we farmers." But it is stated that he does carry on a small garden so that it is pos sible for hiin to style himself a fanner. Mr. Fletcher is not one of the impossibles. C 1 V5 i t PI n n ji Says the Kutland Herald: "There is another point suggested iu the vigorous enforcement of the new law. Our prohi bition friends are quoting the number of arrests for drunkenness as an argument against the law. It would be a good point to make if the old law had been enforced "We are not arguing that Montpelier is proving the superiority of license over no lieense. It Is too early for a judgment on that point; but we are pleased to see the prohibits admit that the Montpelier peo ple propose to have the new statute re pected and its violators punished." The system of compulsory arbitration received a hard ran in New Zealand re cently. A difficulty over wages in a cab inet making establishment arose and the Arbitration Court decided in favor of the men, whose wages were raised to Is 8d an hour. After that decision the em ployers declared that they were unable to do business at the new rates and a lock out followed. Action was taken against the employers for breach of award. Now ihA Arbitration Court has dismissed the cases against the employers after a com plete hearing. This action of the Xew Zealand Arbitration Court is equivalent to a confession that its workings are im practicable. It certainly belies its name as a compulsory court of arbitration. - AGENCY LIQUOR SOLD. :xiientve Saloon Provided i'or Venning ton Haulers. Konnimrton. May 1.

I want to know If we pay taxes to see a woman and five children starve, two of the children being sick, .lust because she don't want to go to the poor farm, and althouirh she is willing to work for her own rent.
