November Elections Called For.

Gov. Page favOrs November cleo
tions in his message, which is to be
appreciated. This naturally would
be followed by winters session of
the Legislature, which would also be
an improvement, as it would come
at a season when the duties of
the legislator could be the most east
ly attended to.
These changes would require
amendments to be made in the con-
stitution. and it is to be hoped that
such may be adopted. This is the
year for the introduction of constitu-
tional amendments in the Legisla-
ture, which are to be acted on at
session. The proposed AMENDING -.
are also to be approved by the Leg
islature to be convened two wears
hence, and such as shall have been
passed through the course will then
be submitted to the people for final
action. And it is not to be doubted
that the Australian voting system,
or something of the sort, is liable to
be adopted in the near future, and to
prepare the way, an amendment
should find place in the State consti-
tuition, changing from the majority
to the plurality rule, which the Aus
tralian system contemplates, and
which cannot well apply to elections
conducted under our constitution as
it is. Vermont is one of the very few
States to cling to the majority plan
left, and it is also one of the very
few left out of the November cleo
ton fold. 1t will be much easier to
conform to general election plans,
and these are among them.-[St. Al

The New School Law.

The Clipper publishes letter from
Prof. Edward Conant of Randolph,
writing personally to the editor, in
which the school question is briefly
and well stated, as follows:
Il certainly am in favor of the present
school law in its main features. 1t was
enacted in response to u demand for re-
vision of our school law. An able commits
sion appointed to examine the matter
The Commissioners went to all parts of the
State and held a conference with the people
relative to the law and the changes needed in
it. They made a report to the Legislature
which was placed in the hands of careful
and able committee who reported a bill which
with little change became a law. Seldom has
a law been enacted in response to so general
demand; and seldom has a proposed law
tion and while on its passage 1t would be
a pity to set aside such a law without full
and fair trial. The law has not had a sutti-
cent trial yet. 1t has been in operation but
a fraction more than single wear 1t was
new, new to the people and new to the officers
charged with the execution of it, The chief
officers under it need special qualifications
but We had to take unframed men for Off
GERS. Their success has been remarkable, in
the fact that there have been no failures. We
are just ready to begin a successful trial.
Both people and officers have gained expert
ence. All partit know better what to do.
There has been no serious hardship to any
one so far, and the reasons for anticipating
hardship have diminished as the law has
come to be understood. The Superintendent
of Education has been diligent and he is hon.
est and able. He has gained the confidence
of school officers and teachers. and of the
people generally whom he has met i'll his
work. Under him the Teachers Institutes
have been ably conducted and well attended,
and have given abundant satisfaction. Under
his administration the holding of summer
schools or teachers institutes for a term of
three weeks has begun, and with success. A
continuance of the law and of the chief Off
GERS who have administered it so far will fur
nish the fairest possible test of its fitness to
the needs of our State. Let us keep it until
we have tried it fairly

Misrepresentinp the Tariff

The Democracy have been bowling for fOul
or five years that the tariff 50 must be settled
Now they are bowling because it is settled
They cannot be satisfied on the tariff ques
ton, whatever is done.-N. Y. Press
Of course, and at this time the least
advance in the price of any article is
laid, by the Free Trade newspapers,
in a united chorus, to the influence OF
the wicked tariff. In their zeal and
anxiety to make a point against the
Mckinley bill they do not take the
trouble to examine into the facts,
and as a result some of their reckless
assertions are supremely ridiculous.
For instance, one of these Free Trade
organs ascribes the advances in tea to
the tariff, as it does also the advance
in tea lead The fact is that tea is on
the free list and the duty on sheet
lead is less under the new than under
the old schedule This is a sample o
Free Trade teachings
