Balnea ltaten. The American Express company has just put into force its readjustment of rates in conformity with the rebate law.

Under the new rule all patrons have to pay exactly the same rate whether they ship one pound a year or a million. On packages weighing less than 100 pounds the rate has been advanced slightly but on packages weighing over 100 pounds the rate remains the same. The rate is considerably lessened when the package travels over two lines of road. This gives equality to all in the express business. The company has issued a circular to all it offices making dismissal the penalty for an employee who makes false statements in regard to the weight or classification of any package.

This conforms with the re cently enacted law. It would seem at first sight that the new ruling makes no difference to the average person. It will be noticed, however, that the rate on packages weighing less than 100 pounds has been increased and pack ages sent by express generally weigh less than that amount. Probably 95 per cent, of the express business is done in weights of not less than too pounds, so the company has not had the public weal entirely at heart. The stock of the American express company is valued at about $250 per share and is paying a per cent, dividend.

These facts naturally lead one to enquire why it was necessary to raise the rates.

W. R. Hark- ness of Montpelier, who is serving a sentence for forgery. This move was not ask ed for by Dr. Harkness, but was entered upon without his knowledge by Mr.

Senter, who was the state's attorney who secured his conviction. While the officers of the Montpelier Savings bank and the Capital Savings bank, the two institutions affected by the forgery, are not willing to take any active part in securing pardon, they do no oppose it. Harkness has made a good record in prison, and has steadily continued his medical studies since his commitment. He has been in charge of the hospital for some time, and on occasions has acted as assistant physician. Henry Barnabas Thompson.

A New Hampshire wag has said that without doubt the most popular book of Winston Churchill is the 5oo-mile mileage book that the Boston Maine railroad has issued as a result of his gubernatorial campaign in the Granite state.
