large vinegar tanks have been made

hold seventy.tive barrels each. They
are so large that they had to be
"knocked down." and put together in
their permanent location.

When the petit Jury is empanneled,
put under oath the same as witnesses, |
and questioned as to opinions formed |
by the reading of certain newspaper
articles bearing directly on the case
they are to try, and under oath depose
and say "that the reading of these
articles and all the various pros and
cons connected with discussion of
the subject has not made any impress
sion on their minds" they indirectly
admit they have no minds, and a
by such a crowd is not
glory. But when body of men, two
Dr. three hundred of them, meet for de.
iberate action as did the Vermont
Fish and Game League at Burlington
asst week, and lift to the head of the
a man with such unanimi-
y and spontaneity as JohnW. Titcomb
If st. Johnsbury, one of the Fish and
Game commissioners of Vermont, was
fitted TO the presidency of that League,
md when the membership of such a
league is composed of Vermont's most
espected citizens, it is a vindication
which means something. If it means
nything it means that the recent trial
# John W. Titcomb in Washington
county court for alleged violation of
he prohibitory law was farce. 1t
means that the great body of thinking
,eoble do not cOuntcnance the acts of
IN official clothed with great power to
Use that power to punish person on
PERSONAL grounds. If it means any
hing it means vindication by ones
wn constituency, which is the choicest
rand of home made vindication ever
in Vermont.
