The average daily circulation of the
Barre Daily Timet for the week ending
taturday was
4,440
copies, the largest paid circulation of
any daily paper in this section,

Thawi is about to leave off.
To' preserve the balances there ought
to bo a college of divorce to go along
with that college of courtship which a
Chicago university professor is advocat
ing. The contents of the public acts of
the general assembly of 1900 refer to
the "sail" of diseased meat. That's less
culpable than tho "sale" of diseased
meat, at any rate.-
. What incident nine years' ago doe the
blowing up of the French battleship
lena yesterday remind you off The
""difference lies in the fact that the lena
was in a tioriie port, while the Maine
was in foreign water.
It is now evident that the question
frequently asked by the Burlington Free
Press before the election, "What is the
matter with Burlington t" was answered
by the election,' judging from the view
point of that newspaper. '
The Rhode Tslanders are strurg''n8
along for the ninth week in an endeavor
to elect a United States senator. This
is the land to which t!oger Williams fled
so that he might think as ho wished.
His descendants have preserved the same
rigfot, apparently. "-.''"'
A MOVE FOR TURE FOOD.
The fining of a company doing busi
ness in Vermont for having in its jws
sessiou "tainted meat" and for dispo-ting
of the same, through the plea of guilty,
is a grand step toward that pure fixa
deidertutn. While the event is fresh
in mind, it Is well to make reference
to a law which was passed by the mont
recent state legislature respiting the
transaction in diseased nieat. The act
forbids the sale, the offering for sale
nd the keeping for sale, or the shipping
out of the state any animal or fowl
which died in a diseased state, the flesh
of a calf which was Ic-s than four weeks
old or weighed less than fifty pounds.
The penalty is imprisonment of one year
r a fine of $300., Furthermore, a per
Jon who sell or offers for sale an ani
mal known to be infected with bovine
tuberculosis or any other contagious dis
eases or any disease detrimental to the
public health is liable to a similar pun
ishment. This first conviction under the
new law marks an important precedent,
which prosecuting officers should not le
slow to follow up. Let the good work
go on, if the public health is anything
to be guarded.
INFLUENCING THE BALLOT.
Would the esteemed Barre Times have
us believe that an employer of Inlxir had
no moral right to attempt by legitimate
means to puMnade his workmen to see
the political aspect of their joint busi
ness interest as he saw it ? ist. Albans
Messenger,
Any mah who is gifted with tho power
of forming words and lotting them flow
i through his lips has the right to mount
' a barret at the street coiner or stand on
! tha rear of a dump-oart and let loose
that flow for the edification of those who
care to hear. That is one of the prized
privilege of this democratic nation, and
" until one goes Iwyond the brope'r bounds
there will be no hindrance. The man
. who hires, labor has tho same privilege
i as the barrel-top orator or the dump
; cart exliorter.
That, however, is not the point which
The. Times recently raised. It is the
( presumption ou the part of an employer
, that what Jie. believes should by any
' manner or means bo the belief of the
men who happen to find employment un
der him to the extent of an assertion
that if you vote so and iso you will
bo pleasing mo, and contrariwise, if you
vote the other way you will displease
me. We are passing beyond that stage
when workihgmcn, so-called, have any
other connection with their employers
save that of man to man. Tho laborer
is a unit In the political circle just as
much ns is the man who pays the labor
er. We have heard rumors of threats
by employers that unless their workmen
voted according to tho dictates of the
management, tho places of the non-con-formers
would be vacant and the men
find themselves walking the streets.
Then, from another viewpoint, that or
the employer of labor, would he not con
sider it a ludicrous position for hi work
men to take if they should come to him

"What time ioc' -the train leave j. for
Barre, please?" , .. :
"1 can't tell, m: ,Yer never can tell
ou this road. It may le two minutes,
and then ugn it may be two hours afore
we titart-" '.' .
The above conversation was between a
passenger and a (,'ential Vermont brake
man at Montpelier, The passenger wait
ed because he had to, when lo and behold
the train started in just two minutes
Ond one-third from the time of the con
versation. Hut then, let not the" Can't
Vowh-forit train take too much credit
to itself, for the train was already over
45 minutes late.
We heard the other day of the heroic
treatment, an anxuus Barre wife -nitwit
tingly took to prevent the entire evacu
ation of the hair from her husband's
head. "Why, John, you are losing your
hair,"Hshe exclaimed, ns she happened to
discover a vacant spot on her husband'
cranium, a foreboding of the future,
"Let me put ou some, hair-restorer," and
she rushed to the family medicine ebset,
returning shortly with a bottle labeled
hair-restorer. The . woman soused her
husband's head with a liberal allotment
of the liquid, until the light of suspi
cion broke over the man's countenance,
and he gently yet forcibly thrust, her
aside. One whiff at the bottle, and with
a cry of "Varnish he hot -footed it to
the bath-room and plax-ed, his caput un
der the faucet. By active scrubbing ho
got most of tho "restorer" off. The bot
tle had once contained that magic fluid
which makes ten hairs grow where there
was only on hair, but it had been lat
terly filled with plain, everyday varnish,
and Mrs. Anxious Wife didn't know it.

What a playful reminder of that beau
tiful practice of the farmer's daughter
of placing a sweet billet-doux in the
in'ards of the Thanksgiving turkey was
that dynamite stick in the middle of a
coal car unloaded in Montpelier last
week! Mho knows but what, like the
tui keynote, this dynamite was a mes
sage W'whotn it may concern''! There
certainly was concern when the message
wag uncovered. And we can't blame
tiio recipient for refusing to accept; then
and there, without further consideration
of the matter. It is more or discon
certing to see a yellowish-looking cylin
der staring into your face, as ii' ready
to say, at any moment, the word which
shall launch you skyward. The practice
of passing out these reminders is not
to be commended, ' nor i its example,

Similar immediate and personal fam

in the Harre schools recently. A little

the application of the word that, tie
teacher failed to learn what was her due
for again tapping the fingers of the

not failed to give reproof when it was
