dally paper in this section.
The twenty-nine property owners of
Jiutlund who have been notified by the
city fire marshal to equip their buildings
with fir, apparatus ought to have done so
without the warning. There are property
owners in every city who ought to do so
now without another such warning as the
IritjiioiH theatre horror in Chicago. .
The rest of the state marvels that Barre
, and Montpelier can enjoy anything in
common, most of all a base ball team. In
the latter eonneetlon the sufferance re
mains in the fact that Barre people call
their representatives in the Northern
- league the Barre team, and Montpelier
people call them the Montpelier team, al
though the t tlioial name of the team is
"Uurre-Montpelier." Just a little sugar
r coating and perhaps both cities might
bide each other most tolerably.
The White River Junction Landmark
speaks truthfully when it says: "Constant
repltltion of the claim, that Mr. Bell is the
farmers' candidate may prove a source of
weakness to him at the fall election.
While he Is a representative farmer one
of the best in Vermont he should not be
considered as the representative of any
claw, but of the Republicans of Vermont
whether dwelling In cities, towus or the
comitry." But is to the farmers of the
state, nevertheless, that the Republican
manntrers must look for a big vote this
fall, if there is to be a big vote. The city
or town dwellers are easier to get to the
polls than those who live at a distance

much of the efforts of this campaign by

BUSINESS IMPROVEMENT IN
BARRE.
It may eofidently be stated that the bus
iness interests of the city of Barre which
were given a set-back last spring through
various causes, have now resumed their
normal status. The granite Industry was
notably quiet during the late winter
months and spring, there being more than
the usual scarcity of orders at that period
ot the year. Sinoe then, however, there
has been a gradual change for the better
until now the granite pkuts of the city
and vicinity are running about the usual
number of men. Manufacturers report
that orders are coming in well for this sea
son, and some of the firms are taking on
more men, so that at the present time
there are few men in this city who are un
employed, leastwise few of those men who
are witling to work. The satisfactory con
ditions in the leading inaustry of the city
are an indication of the situation In other
lines of business. There is a consequent
improvement in the retail line and durln
thepresent month trading has been com
paratively brisk in the stores of the city
A considerable amount of large building
operations is in progress, and the prospects
in the conntruction line which were con
sidered rather poor in the spring are now
good.
Taken all in all, Barre has no reason for
complaint over the situation.
