Where EXpcricncc Tells.

The Burlington FREE Press. in an article
making personal estimate OF the moro
prominent men elected members OF the leRis-
leture last week. mentions the curious fact
that only two members of the last House were
reelected a thing that could hardly happen
in any other state. and which j. to he de.ply
regretted rs happening in Vermont under the
way OF doing things which has fallen INTO
practice in Vermont. \ body 80 made M does

The Phoenix touches upon point to
which reference has frequently been made
during the past six months. Vermont has
always recognized the advantage of keep

in the House at Washing ton. In the House

places on important committees 10y reason
of their terms of service alone, for, while
our senators are often prominent figures in

representatives have not always stood

the races at our county or State fairs 20
for sport it is pretty safe to reckon that it
will be some time before the kite track su-
persedes the halfmile track. Many who
have been in the habit of attending the
races Mt the State fair at Howard Park in
this city did not hesitate to express their
preference for race at our park, (which
one could see from start to finish, ;" to race
on a kite track which only permitted a
sight of the start and finish, But for all
this the kite track is not likely to lack
patrons in these record smashing days.
Meanwhile the White River Junction
track and the work that is done on it will
command good deal of attention. The
State Horse Breeders meeting will doubt
less be held at the junction next year, when
the track will be given n more thorough
trial and under better conditions we hope
than prevailed last week.

THE SWEDEs NOT PAUPERS.
They are Making Money in Vermont and
sending II to sweden for
Their Friends.

Commissioner Valentine was in the city
yesterday, and in talking with FREE
Press reporter, reiterated protest against
the use OF the word pauper as applied to
his Swedish immigrants. He says that the
Vermont CoIonists have been more than
self supporting since they came to Vermont.
Fittytive men, women and children came
last April, and the money earned among
them has not only supported their families,
but they have with their earnings spent
over 300 in the purchase of tickets to send
to Sweden to friends. Upwards OF 20 have
already arrived or are on their way here
The addition of 20 TO the original 90 makes
quite a ratio of increase for six months
Tue idea Of calling these self-reiant, self
supporting, selfrespectinG, independent,
thrifty people paupers Mr.. Valentine pro
nounces absurd.
The commissioner makes another point
by referring to the fact that had an earlier
commencement been made by few months,
the estimated loss of 80 in the population
of Vermont during the last decade would
have been wiped out, and a small increase
reported instead. The 50 Swedes reduced
our loss by that number, and with the ad-
dition II would have been reduced TO loss
thans 60 and at the ratio of increase men
toned, six months more would have made
the balance on the right side.
