There and Here.

"If a similar outrage had been per
petrated in Northern state; if the
United States army had dispersed the
legislature of New York or Ohio, there
would have been revolution from one
end of the land TO the other"
This is one of the statements with
which the democratic press is firing the
hearts of the people and rousing them
to resent the late military interference
at New Orleans. But let us see how the
Louisiana programme would be received
if it were performed at the North, lin
our own state for instance. Suppose
that last June the republicans of the
state, finding themselves likely to be
outvoted in the legislature, had organ
lied and armed a =" league and through
it kidnapped and confined few of the
democratic members of the legislature,
shot down "as warning " few dozen
democratic voters and murdered in the
dark few hundred more, and finally
with revolvers and bowie-knives taken
possession of the State House and as
sumed to be the state government, would
there have been anything so terrible in
Gen. Grants responding to a call from
Governor Weston and sending thither
troops to GUST the bogus legislators and
sustain the governor in his office? We
think Manchester ~ III. Mirror.

The Legislature.

REFORM SCHOOL REMOVED TO vERGENNEs
The Vermont legislature assembled at
Montpelier on Wednesday of last week
in extra session. Both houses promptly
adapted resolution to do no business
not relating to what had specially called
them together. Attempts were made to
introduce other business, and among 9th
ers Mr.. Fairman of Wolcott wanted to
introduce bill to establish liquor dis
tillery to furnish pure liquors for town
agents. The question of location of the
reform school appeard at once in joint
resolution for visit Of both Houses to
to Vergennes to inspect the grounds, ar
senal buildings and farm there, offered
for the use of the state. Both Houses
also promptly agreed to adjourn Satur-
day morning.
Accordingly Thursday was spent in the
excursion to Vergennes, where from
their subsequent action, they seemed to
have been very favorably impressed with
the advantages of that place as the bet
ter location for the school. Friday was
the field day, but from the start it was
apparent that Vergennes was ahead. In
the senate, Mr.. Walton moved substi-
tute bill re-establishing the reform school
at Waterbury, and after lengthy dis
cussion this was rejected by vote of

Attempts were made to repeal the

reform school but they failed. The work
of the special session appears to be the
appropriation of 100000 to rebuild the
reform school at Vergennes, $4,000 for {

"The Flour Question :"

Mr.. EDITOR. Il noticed in the TINES,
a few weeks since, long letter from a
" travelling man. who evidently thought
he knew all about oranges and the flour
trade.
There was but one item in said letter
that would probably mislead any person,
and this could not if they would give it
but moments thought 1t was stated
that the Bondville Grange sold flour for
$3.50 per bbl., and that Mr.. Hill sold
the same brand and from the same mill,
for 1925. Please note that, from the
same mil. 1t so happens that the flour
obtained by the Bondville Grange was
made and shipped direct from grange
mills at the west, and no person outside
of the grange can obtain single barrel
of it from them in any manner. An
other thing-when Mr.. Hill can sell as
nice -four as that obtained by the grange
for 1925 per Dbl. he can have an order
for 10000 bbls, at any time. 1t appears
by the advertising columns of the TIMES,
that such -four as is sold by the grange
costs from $3.50 to $3.50 per Dbl. in Bel
lows Falls, and we think it will take Mr..
Hill some time to find out how he can
sell it in Bondville at from 1925 to 1926
per Dbl. less than the dealers in Bellows
Falls can. We have no doubt that Mr..
Hill has sold something that he has call
ed -four for 1928, and if he could find
out how the grange -four was branded,
he probably had it branded the same, as
the same thing has been done before by
other dealers whose reputation was about
as good as that of Z" Jonas Hill of Bond
ville." Ihavesome knowledge ofthe quail
ity of 400 bbls. of -four that have been
used by the grangers in this section, and
which all came from the same mill, and
it has all given the best of satisfaction,
and outsiders say that it is better arti-
Gle than can be obtained from the deal
srs here. OF course the grangers don't
think 500
In conclusion, we would like to in
quire how it happened that the flour
which Mr.. Hill had in his store at the
time the Bondville Grange was organic
ed dropped in price $500 per Dbl. with
in the next three days2
