amount to double taxation also that the
lands were occupied for railroad pur-
noses within the meaning of the statute.

ton. Judge Barrett of Rutland appeared

A Visit to the sharpe" Yacht.

We have been to see Mr.. Murray's
"Sharpie" yacht and wish to thank him
through the columns of your paper for the
great service he is doing to the citizens Of
Burlinet ton, especially the ladies, in open
ing season of yachting with such a
splendid, substantial, safe and comfort
able boat. Even the tmid ones If once in
duced to sail in "Sharpie" well managed
will find their timidity vanish and love
of this glorious outdoor amusement grow,
and grow with each succeeding trip.
Why should not parties of ladies go
out for their days sailing and fishing
il their boat is a safe "Sharpie"
and their captain a safe man, as
we feel sure all captains of Mr.. Muir
rays recommendation Will have to be
Why should not ladies learn the nautical
terms and familarize themselves with
handling the tiller and the ropes Surely
it is not uniaf ylike, and will give them
days and days of great enjoyment.
We have sailed in these 'Sharpies'
on the Connecticut coast and we have
also sailed in the finest yachts the Hudson
shows in summer, and of the two we pre-
fer the "Sharpie,' she Is so steady and
rides the waves so easily. We certainly
hope the ladies will visit the boat and en-
courage their husbands, their gentlemen
friends and Mr.. Murray in the idea that
ladies want to enjoy these sailing parties
and thus add to the safety and comfort al
ready assured, elegance of fittings that
/ will make us all proud and our neighbor'
| ing visitors enVlOuS.
We hope the ladies Will become inter
ested in this amusement so conducive tC
| health and feel it to be for their benefit as
well as their gentlemen friends. Born OF
the cost and always used to yachting, the
absence of it here on this magnlilcen,
sheet of water seems strange.

The Governor Question.
To the Editor of the Free Press:

To the Editor of the Free Press:
The State convention has been called to
nominate State officers, and the question
pressing upon us is,who shall be nominal
ed for governors Mr.. Ormsbee and Mr.
Batchelder are pressed by their respective
friends for the position. One is put for
ward as a nominee for governor because
he has served the State as lieutenant gov
ernOr, and the other because he was the
speaker of the House two years ago.
Neither of those grounds are sufficient
to entitle either of those gentlemen to be
promoted to the goVernorShip. The two
gentlemen may be worthy and would fill
the gubernatorial chair with fidelity, but
there are ather considerations that should
be pressed in selection of a candidate for
that Office. There are other men in the
State older in years, qualified for the posi-
ton. There are those who have served
bench and in that position have
performed arddous service tor the peo-
pie and have proved themselves to be
honest and able. and whose large
experience has fitted them for the duties
of governor. One of these is Hon. James
Barrett of Rutland. His ripe experience,
his knowledge of the law and needs of the
State and his extensive acquaintance
would render him in every way a safe and
capable governor. The people of Rutland
would honor themselves i'll urging his
name before the convention as proper
candidate for our next governor. His cleo
ton would be a fitting reward for past
eminent judicial service he has rendered
the State. w.
