An nld Enr,ner,s Voice.

There is considerable talk as TO
who is to be our representative. Sever
Al have been mentioned as the proba-
BILE candidate Of the republican party.
IL is moi enough to know that candi-
date is a republican, but We should
know what his views on different sub
iccts that will come before the next
legislature. He ought to be man Of
GOOD common sense and familiar with
our present laws. When he arrives at
Montpelier will he vote for the state to
furnish textbooks for all the sci sols,
at a cost of $500, 600: VIII he vote to
change our listing laws SO as 10 offset
real estate against debts, rs personal
property is now offset! This would
open the door still wider for tax-dodg-
ers and make the grand list much small
Ter. Will he 90 in for creating more
new offices with high salaries, and for
building bridges and insane asylums,
and for throwing away money as has
been done!
Some kind Of legislation IS needed
that will help the farmers. Other
branches Of business are prospering,
while the farming interest Is sadly de-
pressed. Under our present listing
laws farmers pay most OF the taxes.
Real estate is the only property but that
is or may be exempt from taxation.
Capitalists, lawyers. physicians and
owners Of bank stock escape taxation
and the farmers have to foot the bills.
Prior to 1910 attorneys and physicians
were assessed and there were no OF
sets on personal property, but now the

Vote for a man as town representa-
tive next Tuesday who will vote for a
listing law that viii tax all property
once aud once only; farms to the DIFF
ferent owners in proportion to the
interest each owner holds.
Vote for a man who VIII vote to re-
peal all exemption clauses of the pres
ent law. Let every man and every
interest be taxed alike, and alike bear
the burdens.
Vote for man who viii vote for a
reasonable and just ''long and short

Vote for man who viii vote to a.

Vote for man who viii vote 10 re-
duce the number of Judges of the Su-

Vote for no man who viii vote for

Vote for man who will pledge

the people money.
Vote for no man who is not an out

Nc rown Representative.

As a rule, no town elects IFS best
man as town representative. If a man
has shown intelligence aud ability e
nough to succeed in business, if he has
kept himself informed and abreast with
the times, if he has courage and inde-
pendence to express sound and timely
opinions on leading local issues he is
certain 10 have raised up enyious ene-
mics in his town and neighborhood
who take a dogged delight in keeping
him in political obscurlty. An instance
of this kind can be found in at least ev-
cry other town in Vermont. The time
has come-and il has been here some
time-when the same general ignor-
ance and lack of opinions and ideas
which eminently fit man for member
ship in a panel OF petit jurors operate
to elect him to the legislature. A man
thus ''quahfied' has made no enemies,
because he has never advanced an o
pinion or questioned the opinions of
voters. He would absolutely refuse TO
express an opinion as to whether the
earth is round or flat. or whether YER
mont is bounded on the north by Cam
ada or North Troy, because of lack Of
confidence and because he hesitates to
say anything that may possibly conflict
with larger minds. Several weeks be-
fore election the question of representa-
tive is discussed. and one after another
representative citizen is discarded be-
cause he has few enemies and
might split the party. Every vote Is
needed, and at last the choice narrows
down to the man with no ideas. His
party turns in and elects him, not be-
cause II respects and honors MIN, but
to save itself. He goes to Montpelier,
and for a while he is as much AT sea as
PIG in the Indian Ocean. During
the session he learns two things. One
Of these is to get into his seat at the
proper time and keep still, and the 9th
er is to vote with the majority. This
is his legislative record. II he'is on a
committee he occasionally meets with
lt, looks wise aud votes with the chalr-
man. This is the ingredient that COM
prises three fourths OF an ordinary Vt.

hibition, ballot reform, free textbooks,

Is this true picture OF the man

Let us lay aside all petty jealousies and

burden of taxation falls on real estate.
The farmer with the same amount Of
property pays four times the amount of
taxes that he did prior to 1910. The
farmer gets but small returns for all
his labor, while others are well paid.
Look at the salaries that are paid our
state and county officers, and all off
GERS, as compared with 40 or 30 years
ago. They receive more than double
the amount they did then. Ii anything
is done to help the farmers it viii be
by reducing expenses and by equaliz-
ing taxation. An OLD FARMER.

Because they have got the get up

The above figures represent the cost
Of the State militia for the past two
years. II ought not to have been over
$4,000 at the outside. 1t costs the
state more to support the militia than
a session Of the Legislature. Give US
annual sessions and no militia, or else
let the next legislature limit the amount
that can be spent on the militia to 5000
a year. In time Of peace, (and who ey-
.er heard Of the militia being Of any
real use), every dollar spent on it is
wasted. Here is chance to save.

EDITORIAL NOTES.
BEWARE OF SPLIT TICKETS.

The secretary of the Windsor coun-
ty republican committee informs us
that a split ticket is being prepared
identieally like the state and county
ticket except that the name of Herbert
Z. Bingham is substituted for Carroll
S. Page, and the name OF S. G. Shurt-
left tor that of w. w. Grout. Look
at your ticket and read it carefully be-
for you vote. The names Of the can
didates are printed in the tickets at the
head of the editorial column. Vote the
straight party ticket. Every name on
it is worthy of your vote.

tlhituary

Died in Chelsea Aug. z, Edward Doug
lass aged S5 years and 9 months. MIR.
Douglass was born in Chelsea in 1904 and
was all his life a resident ofthe town. The
town was settled in 1884 and thus Mr..
Douglass lived in tine town during nearly
all of its history. His father Caleb Doug
lass settled in the town in 1859, the same
year in which the Cong'l church was or
ganized. Caleb with his brother Ivory
were respected and influential citizens
during the years when the character and
the institutions of the town were shaped.
Ivory was a deacon of the Cong'l church.
OF Caleb there were descended 10 children,
Z sons and daughters. All of these ex-
cept one lived to he over 20 years of age
and most Of them to a very old age. But
Of these 10 children there were born y
children and OF these II only IA. So the
figures stand as follows: of Caleb Doug
lass, 10 children, II grand children, Ia
great grandchildren. Had the 2nd and
3rd generation continued with the same
ratio of descendants as the first there
would have been Just 1000 descendants of
Caleb Douglass instead of 36. OF all the
descendants there is now not one left OF
Douglass name and but few OF the blood.
The line became extinct when EdB ard
Douglass was buried Aug. 3, 1890. The
character and history Of Mr.. Douglass
was in many respects worthy OF note. ne
son OF parents OF small means and meagre
advantages, a member of a large family,
he was Injured to hardship from early
childhood. Brought up on a rough and
not very fertile farm on Chelsea east hill
where the family struggled hard but sue
cessfully for q comfortable living, the
traits of frugality, industry and strict in
tegrity were early enstamped on his char
acter. He worked his way up the hill Of
difficulty with patient sturdy steps. Where
many a young man of those times would
give up and "gO vest he only saw a
challenge TO courageous endeavor. He
gained a competence, acquired influence
fellow citizens OF neighboring towns. He
was a man Of the good old stamp, stur-
dy, sterling character, a man who re-
spected himself as much when he was
dressed in his plain working suit as when
dressed for church, who could not be sur
prised into an irreverent expression, po-
lite dignified and affable. He kept sa-
cred 50 days of the year and worked 313
DAYS. His rough hillside farm looked
like a garden. Some men would have sat
down and complained "farming don't
pay and have sold the farm for 5000 but
he made it pay for him as well as though
he could have sold it for 5000 or more.
We like that style of a man and regret
hat we are fast leaving them to the past.
Mr.. Douglass was for nearly 30 years
member OF the Cong'l church Of this place
Not so demonstrative in his piety as some
nor so free in public expression of it. he
was a sincere and devout Christian, one
who 'sdid justly, loved mercy and walked
humbly with Cod He was a friend of
friend of the church and
friend Of every good public institution.
He has left that good name " hich is bet
ter than riches r. f. II.

Douhle TaxatIon.

Vermont is about 10 turn over new
Page in her business history. May that
Page never be marred or defaeed by
any iniudicious act OF her chief magis-
trate. The Bible tells us "there is a
time for all things-a time to eat and
time to drink, time TO sing and a
time to dance, time TO laugh and a
time to weep" and, may not add, a
time for candid, serious meditation /.
If this is true, it appears to me that
that time has come. The time for the
session Of the Vermont legislature IS
near. and demand for such as has
not pressed itself home TO the heart Of
every republican voter Of Vt. for many
year meets us square in the face. II
is a fact that the farmers OF Vermont
have always been, and particularly so
at the present day, the great burden
bearers of the state-the result Of un-
wholesome legislation. Let us take the
present tax law, for example. Every
man must admit that double taxation
is a serious wrong. The great ques-
ton at issue is, Who shall pay the tax
es? Should il be the man that does
not own the property or the man that
doess Reason would he dethroned
that would admit for a single moment
that a man should be taxed for what
he does not own. Therefore any per-
son holding notes against another,
which are safely secured by mortgage,
should be the person who should pay
the taxes on the amount thus secured,
and the person thus indebted should be
exempt from taxation on the same a
mount. And let me further ask
Should not taxes be paid 30 the town
where the property taxed is situated {.
When this can be done, no town will
suffer loss on mortgages held by eapi-
talists from other towns. Double taxa
ton is a curse to any state-and more
especially ia these trying times, when
the tiller Of the soil is thoroughly una-
bic to meet the demands that are press
ing so heavily upon him. Farmers OF
Vt, do YOU need urging. IN this most
irving time OF Vermont history, to IL
wake out Of sleep! Or viii you, as
valiant soldiers, arm and equip your
selves ike men for the great struggle
for liberty in defense Of right: The
cause is yours, and you are in the ma
iority. Blame yourselves Ii You do not
do your duty and if you do not have a
legislature that will remedy the above
named evils, together with several 9TH 7
ers that might be mentioned. If you do
not. surely there must be something
rotten in Denmark. Let ogr Page be
also clean and our record good.-E.E. I
Andrews. in Watchman.
During a recent trip to Wmdham I
county we had occasion to observe that
the people ofthat locality were not do
ing any kicking over the appearance
thereabouts Of the Swedish colonists.

Ii is a matter for considerable pride
on the part of Vermont people that the
