A Farewell.

The Bismarck fire department gave a
farewell reception and banquet at the
Western house Friday night, to it's ex-
president, Oscar H. Will. upon the occasion
of his approaching departure from the
city. From forty to fifty members of
the department were present, and for
several hours there vas a genuinely
pleasant meeting. Addresses were made
by Mayor Leslie, Chief Engineer
Edgerley and Treasurer Reade, all of
whom expressed regret at the coming
loss of so good a fireman and business
man as MI. Will, who responded in an
appropriate address, telling the boys
that no matter whereh he might be in the
future. his heart would always be with
them. MI. Will was presented with a
handsome silver tea service, engraved
"From Banner Hook and Ladder Com

repast was served, and music and gener-
al jollity closed the evening.

for depletion and description in these
pages, and simple rules are given for

Unlike Constance Fenimore Woolson's

American in the choice of subjects, the
volume entitled The Front Yard" and

scenes and pOrtrays many European
types of character. But these stories
have Miss Wooson's quality, and the
fact that they, together with two other
volumes announced by the Harpers to
follow before the year is out. stand for
the authors first efforts in field new to

Inspection of the Roads by the
Board of Highway Commissioners.

WHAT HAS BEEN DONE FOR OUR ROADS
DURING THE YEAR-DATES OF COUNTY
MEETINGS TO BE HELD-wORKING OF
THE NEW LAW.
The State Board of Highway Commits
sioners, consisting of Oscar L. Kinds of
East Highgate, Prof j. w. VOtey of Bur-
lington and Marcus Peck of Brooktield,
have just finished an inspection of the
roads in the southern part of the State.
The object of the board was to meet the
different town commissioners and advise
them in regard to their work, to examine
the work they were dong this year, and
especially to the permanent work. An
other object was to study the character
of the various roads, under their classii-
cation as sand, loamy, gravel, or clay.
Also they had in view to study the ma
terials and the means available for i'm
proving the roads and to see that the
town commissioners were getting as
much as possible out of the money ex-
pended. Samples of the different roads
are now being collected and tested for
the board, and this will continue during
the fall and winter.
The examination was during the
months of June and July, and was con-
fined to the following counties: Addison,
Bennington, Rutland, Windsor and
Wiudham. The line of travel was along
the main roads of these counties, taking
in the most important towns and passing
over the different kinds of sand and clay
! formation. One circuit was made from
West Randolph to Woodstock, thence to
| Chester, to BrattlebOrO, then across the
State through Wilmington to Benning-
| ton, then through the Bennington valley
! to Manchester, and then to Rutland. An
other circuit was from Brandon TO Rut-
| land, to Fair Haven to Shoreham, to
| Cornwall, and then back to Brandon.
The travel was planned at the time of
| the year when the various road commits
sioners were at work on the roads, SO
| that the board would have the advantage
of seeing the men at work.
The results of the examination were in
every way highly satisfactory. There
| have been very great improvements in
| the road both as regards the material be-
| ing used ard the way it is being used.
Much more care is being exercised in
keeping the roads clean and smooth.
What was very pleasing to the board was
! the fact that the road commissioners are
becoming more and more interested in
their work and are desirous of accom-
plishing as much as they could with the
means at their disposal and command.
The know it all' road commissioner is
fast becoming thing of the past. Every
one seems to be desirous to learn how to
build roads at the smallest possible cost
and with the greatest enduring qualities

abolishing the old method of working
OUT highway taxes. no complaints were
heard by the board. The law seems to
give general satisfaction. In fact, sever
al towns have raised more money than
the law requires for permanent improve
ments.
One feature of the new law which has
not generally been taken advantage of is
that a town is permitted to elect a road
commissioner for term of three years.
Most towns adhere to the old method of
passing around the office. This is a bad
policy, for when man is elected who
serves satisfactorily for one year, it is
more economical to re-elecG him for he
has the advantage of experience which
his successor may not have. Only three
towns in the State reelected commits
siOners for three years, i. e. Tinmouth
in Rutland county, Reading in Windsor
| county, and Franklin in Franklin
county.
OF the towns in the counties which
elected commissioners for term of
three years there were 50 per cent. in
Grand Isle, rs per cent. in Franklin, 7G
per cent. in CALEDONIA, 76 per cent. in
Orange, 10 per cent in Chittenden and
only 81 per cent III Washington which
was Une lowest per cent.
A notable feature of the recent law is
that "the five per cent" State tax for
the benefit of highways, shall hereafter
be used to permanently rebuild or repair
portions of the main thoroughfares in
each town. Before this town commIs-
SiOners were not obliged to expend the
money in permanent work, and so a
great deal of money was virtually thrown
a tnt,, ~,
commission must keep a separate ac-
| count of the permanent fund and submit
separate report to the State board.
This insures about 100000 to be eXpend-
ed each year in permanent work, besides
what each town may desire to contrib
ute voluntarily.
According to the new law the road
commissioners of the several towns must
hold meeting in August. The purpose
of the act here referred to, is to develop
an increased interest in the improvement
of the highways, by bringing the town
commissioners together for the inter-
change of ideas and the discussion of
| questions relating to the work. 1t is
! hoped that special interest in the i'm
| prOvement of the main roads in each
county will be encouraged by these meet
! ings. This will enable the State board
to get at the needs of each town in re.
gard to materials and road machinery,
and to collect information relative to the
work, and advise the different commits
Sioners as to the best methods.
These meetings will be attended by
some representative of the State board
and other prominent men of the State
interested in good roads. The money
now being expended is giving double the
value that it was before. Higher labor
is equivalent to larger tax than when
the tax was worked out. At these coun,
ty meetings there will be displays OF
road machinery and illustrations of the
method of road making.
In Vermont there are about $1,000
miles of road, with about % people pei
mile, including cities. On an average
the roads in the southern part of the
State are better than those in the north
ern, and the latter will be examined mex
| season.

A GREAT PRINCIPLE AFFIRMED.

There are many gems of thought and
law in the opinion of the majority Of
the Supreme Court Of the United States
against the income tax. It was said, for
example, that the Constitution ordained
affirmatively that representation and di-
rect taxes should be apportioned among
the several States according to numbers,
and negatively that no direct tax should
be laid otherwise. It's further stated
that the founders anticipated that the
expenses of the Federal Government
would chiefly be met by indirect taxa
