EDITORIAL NOTES.

The city Of London now has a popu-
lation of five and one-half millions,
and is increasing its numbers by a
hundred Thousand each year. The
significance of these vast figures can
scarcely be comprehended, and the
municipal problems which arise thro'
such mighty aggregation of human
beings in one corporation are becom-
ing increasingly difficult of solution.

The HERALD heartily joins with
Hon. William Chapin of Middlesex in
soconding the proposed road conven-
son, and trusts that it will be held at
an early date, and that the attendance
viii be general. Better roads would
be one of the greatest boons to Ver-
mont farmers, and proper improve
yaent in this line would increase the
value of the average farm at least
twenty-five per cent. And this is
movement which will benefit the small
farms back on the hills, as well as the
meadow lands on the broad highways.

A bill is pending in the New York
legislature for the licensing of houses
of i'll fame. We are naturally Mortified
to think that the Legislators ofthat great
state can for a moment seriously con-
template such an unholy proceeding.
But why shouldn't the bill pass? The
empire state has long had on its statute
books an act legalizing the sale of all
kinds of liquor, in return for a certain
fee paid to the proper authorities. 1t
has also had for same time in success
full operation another law WHICH, for a
consideration, licenses gambling on the
race track. The liquor seller and the
ssbook-maker" are both given the pro-
lection of the law, and are permitted to
do that which is confessedly wrong in
return for stipulated fee paid into the
public treasury. Why should not the
prostitute be given the same privileges,
and afforded the same protection guar
anteed to the vender of intoxicants and
the holder of stakes: If one is right
the other must be. And if it is right
TO license these SINS why not go still
further and, for a consideration, permit
men to commit robbery. provided the
robbery does not go beyond certain
limit previously agreed upons Andwhy
not place the murderer under the pro-
lection of the law, provided he pays in
to the public treasury 80 many thou
sand dollars for every victim whom he
hurries into eternity: Men viii commit

The announcement is just made that
the great Reading r. X. system has
secured the control Of the Lehigh Val

companies. In addition to this an ar
rangement has been perfected with the
Lackawanna, the Delaware and Hud-
son. aud the Pennsylvania coal COM
panies for the adoption Of a joint agen-
cy system which will take the place of
the present separate agencies. This is
recognised as the largest X. r. deal on
record, and comes hard after the ac-
QUESTION Of the great Poughkeepsie
bridge by the same corporation. This
will give this one company absolute
control of three-fourths of the coal
traffic, and will. present to the world
one of the most gigantic combinations

The Republican League.

The gathering of the Republican
League Clubs at Burlington Feb. lltl
and 18th was notable one. Eighty
clubs were represented by over 25C
delegates and the enthusiasm and in
terest manifested augurs well for the
success of the party in the coming
election.
The most notable event was the way
the young republicans asserted them
selves on the floor of the convention
and completely smashed the slate the
old party leaders had prepared. This
is but foretaste of what will happen
at the coming state convention. The
young men, the farmers and the plain
common people propose to be heard.
They propose to say whom they will
vote for this year and would-be party
bosses, ex-governors. eN-oflice holders,
and all members OF the royal families
who have so long controlled Vermont
politics can plainly see the ''handwrit-
ing on the wall" A man fresh from
the people viii lead the Republicans in
the coming campaign.

The recent departure from Boston

renewed attention to the luxury of
modern railroad travel. The trains
run through without change and are

posite car, all vestibuled, upholstered
ard decorated in the highest style of

most fastidious could desire. 1t is
difficult to see what is left for the in

this line, but so it might have been
thought ten years ago. And the
strides since then have been marvellous.

An article originally published in
the New England Magazine has been
widely quoted and commented upon. 1t
described at length the tBeaconsfeld
Terraces" of Brookline, a suburb of
Boston. These terraces are blocks Of
houses which are built together but are
Vet essentially separate, so far as pri-
vacy is concerned. The chief interest
centering 10 this enterprise is that
many of the necessities of the various
houses are provided upon the cooper
alive plan, this permits each tenant to
have superior privileges at lower
rate, and with far less trouble TO him.
self. What has here been done for the
comparatively rich might easily be
done on smaller scale for families
with only moderate incomes; and the
plan is easily adapted to every village
Of considerable size. The increasing
difficulty of finding good household
help will have tendency to hasten the
adoption of various cooperative
schemes in many places. Not all will
succeed. Many trials will have to be
made, but cooperation has come to
stav with the American people.

GOOu meetings IN UeuoEAOus

October s.
To tns Editor oJths Register
SR:-One Of the largest and most en-
thusiaStic Democratic meetings that
your correspondent has ever had the
pleasure of attending in this section was
held at the club room of the Bolivar
Democratic Club last night. Bolivar is

One noticeable feature OF the occasion
was the presence OF quite number of
the fair sex. Both gentlemen made
magnificent address. They discussed
the tariff in such plain and forciOle Ian
guage that if there was doubling
fully convinced that the tariff is tax
and that the consumer pays that tax,
and upon the laborer falls the heaviest
portion Of the burden. The speakers
also touched upon the infamous Force
bill and explained in unmistakable
terms what the result would be II such
a measure were enacted into s,law. The
gentlemen were applauded throughout
and at the close of their discourse were
each presented with handsome bouquets
by the ladies. This precinct will cast
25O votes, with a Democratic majority
OF So We don't monkey with any third
party business here. The Democrats
Of jefferson are fully alive to the issues
of this campaign and realize the fact
that one OF the two great political par
ties must win this fight, and with the
Force bill and this ubiquitous tariff tax
staring them In the face are not foolish
to throw their votes away.

DEAR SIR received your favor ad-
dressing some inquiries to me In respect
TO the policy of protecting American In
terests. On that subject 1 have very
frequently publicly expressed my senti-
ments, within the last two years.
The sum and the substance Of what l
conceive 10 be the true policy OF the
United States, in respect 10 the tariff,
may be briefly stated. In conformity
with the principle announced in the
Compromise act, think that whatever
revenue is necessary to an eco
nomical and honest administration
OF the general Government
ought TO be derived from duties, impOs-
ed OF foreign imports. And l believe
that, in establishing a tariff on those
duties, such q discrimination ought to
be made as will incidentally afford rea-
sonable protection to our national in
tereSts.
think there is no danger Of a high
tariff being ever established; that OF
1928 was eminently deserving that de-
nomination. / was not in Congress
when il passed, and did not vote for it;
but with It's history, and with the cir
cumstanceS which gave birth to it, am
well acquainted. They were highly
discreditabe to American legislation,
and l hope, for its honor, will never be
again repeated.
NV opinion that there is no danger
hereafter of a high tariff is founded on
the gratifying fact that our manUfac-
lures have now taken deep root. In
their infancy they needed a greater meas
ure Of protection than now; but as they
grow and advance they acquire strength
and stability, and, consequently, will
require less protection. Even now some
branches OF them are able TO maintain
In distant markets successful competi-
ton with rival foreign manufac-
tures
am, with great aspect,
Your obedient servant,
II. CLAY.
