the raw materials used up. The Times
has conceded that this truth is indisput-
able, and it knows; or should know that
we still import So, 400, 900 of pottery a

knows that a doctrine to which il has
assented constitutes an important part
of the case for higher duties, aud yet il

The custom of flying the United States
flag on the school houses of the country
a custom which originated in historic
Bennington, is spreading rapidly. In
some States laws have been proposed
compelling school authorities to display
the flag. We are not sure but this is GO
ing too far. 1t might be very well to
authorize by legislative enactment
school districts or towns to vote to have
the flag displayed at the expense of the
district or town. If the flag stands for
anything, it stands for free government,
and for the State to say to district OF
town what expense it shall incur in flag
flying infringes on that freedom of loca
self government of which we are sc
justly jealous. Let each community
act its own pleasure in this matter with
out State interference except to author
ize the voters of any such community tC
tax themselves for it, right which per.
phaps exists without such authorization

PRESERVE THE ADIRoNDAUK FOR.
ESTS

Gov. Hill of New York has recently
sent special message to the legislature
of that state, in which he recommends
the creation of State Park in these for
ests. He would have the park embrace
an area of from $500 to about 5000
square miles. 1t would be owned and
managed by the State, its forests re-
stored where now,cut off, and its forest
products judicially removed when re.
moval was practicable. 1t would, in
short, be managed as the great forests of
Europe have been managed for CEN
turtles. In addition, provision would be
made for leasing small parcels of it for
summer camps, cottages and buildings"
The Governor says that "the portion
of northern New York known as the
'AdIrondacks' has become a great sum
mer and winter resort for persons seek
ing pleasure or health, not only from
our own state but from other sections OF
the Union. 1t is rapidly becoming a
nations pleasure ground and SAM
tarium."
The proposed park he says, would
cover the region IN which are the head
waters of the Hudson and other rivers.
AS the navigation of the Hudson is of
special interest to us in southwestern
Vermont, whatever the state of New
York does to better it concerns us also.
If in doing this that stale is going to get
a revenue from the Adirondack region,
as the Governor hopes it will, so much
the better. He says on this point: Il
think the Adirondack forests, instead of
being an expense and burden TO the
state, are capable, under the liberal
policy here suggested, of paying all the
expenses of their preservation, as well
as of yielding handsome revenue to
the state"
Our own forests in this region are con-
trbutors to the flow of water in the
Hudson. and whatever is done in New
York will be awaited with interest in
our own state. On the outside of this
issue of the BANNER will be found a let
ter from Albany to the New York 1ri-
bune on the important subject OF which
Governor Hills message treats.

Mr.. Wanamaker seems to have the
proper idea of the relations that should
exist between a member of the cabinet
and the people, as represented in the
house of representatives. He told the
members of the House-committee or
postoffices and post roads-who paid
him a social visiy, that he hoped they
would call on him as often as they need
cd information on postal matters, and
that there was nothing private in the
business of his department.

John Henry Apologize of Asbury
Park, N. j., who died recently, was a
native of New England, and was poor
man until he patented a machine for
lasting shoes in 1875. He put it in one
of the many factories at Lynn, Mass, on
six-months trial. At the end Of that
time he borrowed So TO go and see how
it worked. His wife told him at the
time that he would have to borrow S. to
get home again. The machine was a
success, and he came home the next day
with $40, 900 cash and an agreement for
a royalty on every machine sold. He
asked his wife for darning-needle, then
told her to stick him with it to see if be
were dreaming.
