Landlord Doyle Of st. Johnsbnry,
who recently sent circular letters to all
hotel proprietors in Vermont, invit-
ing them to organize for the purpose
of evading the prohibitory law, has
just issued another letter, calling a
convention to be held at Montpelier,
Jan. s, "then and there to try and de-
wise some means whereby we may find
relief from the injustice and persecu-
ton that we are now subject to
through the present administration of
Vermonts prohibitory laws" He
claims that nearly one hundred hotel
keepers have pledged themselves to at
tend. Let's see. We believe the stock
argument of hotel keepers is that they
cannot refrain from selling some liq-
our to the travelling public because if
they do not furnish it the thirsty
guests will 60 to other houses that do
sell. We suggest, therefore, that this
proposed organization can Nilnd re-
lief from the injustice and persecu-
ton" that its members are now SUBJ
iected to by getting all. hotel keepers
in the state to refrain from selling.
Then one house will be as ssdryr as

The war scare is less pronounced.
The tone in both Great Britain and
America is more pacific. Neither
country wants to to war over so
small matter as boundary dispute
down in Venezuela. just how it will
end does not now appear clear, but
that it will end in war few believe.
The commission to be appointed by
the president whose duty it will be to
investigate thoroughly the boundary
question will consist Of men whose
standing on both sides of the Atlantic
carries weight. 1t is thought that its
decision, whether favorable to Great
Britain or to Venezuela, will be con-
elusive. 1t will have access to the
data upon which both sides base their
contention and ought to arrive at a
correct understanding. If the decision
is favorable to Great Britain, this
country will merely have to say that
the case as presented to us by Vene-
zlela was not in accordance with the
facts. II favorable to Venezuela,
Lord Salisbury will find it hard to re-
sist the pressure from England
within, and all the rest Of the world,
and will either yield to arbitration or
abandon his entire claim or effect
some pecuniary settlement. There
will be no war.

A few months ago the British

another and the thirsty guest will have
no choice. We infer from Mr.. Doyle's
circulars that lie does not sell rum for
the profit in it but simply to accom-
modate his guests and retain their
patronage. If his brother landlords
are equally unselfsh, there will be no
trouble in arranging the matter in the
way we suggest. VIII they do it!

The position that President Cleve-
land and Congress have taken in the
Venezuela dispute is perfectly de-
feasible. Great Britain ought to sub
nit it to arbitration and this govern
ment is justified in urging it by all
methods short of actual war. AS to
that-well, we'll cross that bridge

The State Grange has appointed a
committee to secure, if possible,
through change in the laws, the ex-
emption from taxation of money
loaned on real estate when the rate of
interest is not over four and a half
per cent. Now, both lender and bor-
rover are taxed, and the interest rate
is six per cent. The proposed change
would benefit the mortgaged real es-
tate owner by the one and half per
cent that he would save in interest,
less perhaps tritling increase in
taxes that might result from the
shrinkage in grand list, causing a
slight increase in the tax rate. This
plan would accomplish all that a re-
peal of double taxation would and
quite likely could be more easily en-
acted, as it appeals to both the money
lenders and money borrowers. Farm
ers especially are interested and as the
majority of the next legislature will
doubtless be farmers there need be no
difficulty in amending the laws, I'M
less some Of the farmer members are
"buncocd" by those whose selfish in
terests are best served by the laws as
they now stand.
