Muchis now being said in regard to
the school law, and of the prospect of g
return to the old system or to some
other system. We may not return
but that the town system of schools is
offensive to the masses of the people
of Vermont cannot be denied, and
what the people want they should have.
A good law may become poor law if
the people are dissatisfied with it. The
legislature has no right to set its foot
on the neck of the people. No wonder
the statue of Ethan Allen shed tears.
