CURRENT COMMENT.

Thomas Jefferson Boynton, member of
the legislature from Montpelier and
chairman of the Democratic State COM
mittee, is the largest individual in Ver-
mont, public or private. His influence
with the next administration will vastly
exceed that of the entire Republican
party of the State, including members of
Congress and G. G.. Benedict. Ny!

The regulation woman's suffrage bill
has been before the legislature and has

The trustees of the Reform school at
Vergennes talk of buying the Wood

THE LEGISLATURE ACCOMPLISH
MENTS.

The legislature of Vermont finished its
business on Wednesday morning of last
week and at S O'Clock adjourned without
day. 1t did considerable business, but
just what it was will be hard to say till the
laws are printed in some shape or other.
In the meantime we cannot, perhaps,
better satisfy the natural desire of our
readers for information than by re-pub-
fishing from the Burlington Free Press
this statement of what the leading
measures passed were;
With comparatively short session,
only 90 days, including Sundays and ad-
iournments for Columbus day and cleo
ton day, the legislature has. generally
speaking, done what it ought to have
done and left undone what it ought not
to have done. Its one radical measure,
the town system of schools, was demand
ed by the leading educators of the State,
and the passage of this law would alone
entitle 1t to distinction. But it did not
not stop with this; other good things
were furnished the people. Among the
new laws may be mentioned the act ap-
propriating Sl4,750 for Vermont's build
ing at the Columbian exposition; the act
creating the office of road commissioner
IN each town, raising and expending a
State tax of five cents on the highways
in addition to the regular tax of 20 cents,
the five cent tax to be distributed on a
mileage basis, and the old highway law
being repealed; an act providing for a
State road commission, to consist of
three persons appointed by the governor,

pain in the back of the head, as if he had
received a sharp blow there. The family
were alarmed and sent for DR.. Smith.
Just as the doctor reached the house Mr..
Dewey had another and more serious at
tack. Had help not been at hand, quite
likely he would not have survived many
hours. As it was, he sank into stupor,
from which he has not fully recovered at
any time. During the last two or three
days his condition has become worse.
DIR. Wheeler of Burlington, who was
called as council on Tuesday, was dis
posed to regard the case as almost hope
less. Mr.. Dewey's only child, DR.. Dew
ey of San Francisco, has been summoned
home. The physicians call Mr.. Dewey's
disease apoplexy. At noon yesterday it
was reported that he was failing fast and
might not live through the day.
