TWENTIETH DIVISION.

HE Thirty-ffth Assembly District,
headed by brass band, inaugurated
the twentieth division with fitting
glory. The club had twenty five
men in line, under Captain D.
Kelly and Lieutenants E. A. Grant and
E. H. Herrick. The club uniform was
blue with gold trimmings.
The lum Der industries were magnifi-
Gently represented. One thousand men.
shouting themselves hoarse for Mckinley
and seizing every opportunity to vent
their enthusiasm, followed the great yell
low banner proclaiming "The Pacific
Coast Lumber Industries for Sound
Money" The men carried flags, chry-
santhemums and horns. a number of
lumber trucks and heavily loaded wagons
accompanied the men. The parade con-
cluded with large number of wagons
bearing the names of candidates for muni-
cipal and local legislative offices.

marchers, and many of them caught a
glimpse of it and turned their eyes in her
direction. but were unable to see her. She
looked disappointed, but not so much so
as her young American boy, who raised
his voice in grief. The little mother
seized the lad and held him alott until a
man who stood near took him. The young
patriot saw the most of the procession,
and the white handkerchief continued to
wave.
just before the procession started there
was rush to lunch counters. "Give me, -
said hungry man, ga Bryan sandwich" I"
The waiter looked puzzled. "Don't you
know" asked the hungry man, "a Bryan
sandwich is a tongue with roll on it?''
The highest spectators who gazed on
the procession elm bed away up to the top
of the coppery dome on the new City Hall.
They were close up to the angel and from
the ground they did not look to be much
longer than clothespegs as they moved
about. Conversely the smany thousands
of persons embraced in the great process
sion must have seemed individually like
pigmies from the dizzy height which sus-
tanned these spectators. They were COM
pensated to some extent by getting an
unoDstructed view of the entire length of
Market street, and so they saw the pro-
cession in all its glory.
Crafty and enthusiastic women were
those who discovered about the time the
procession was about to start that they
had business upon the upper floors of high
buildings. Elevators were crowded and
elevator men looked on with astonish-
ment at the sudden and enormous popu-
larity which they had achieved. The cars
went up crowded and came down to con-
front ever inhowing crowds. BY this
scheme people who had no seats in Offices
availed themselves of gratuitous accom-
modations at hall windows.
When the wind began to blow down
through Market street as through a fun
mel, the men who carried big, square ban
ners had their hands more tnan ull. One
man let fall his banner three times, for it
was like square sail for fair-sized sail
boat. Two small boys held onto the two
cords, which acted like Sheets" and held
the wind full in the banner every time
that il was raised aloft. Finally the small
boys "let go" and the banner bearer was
able to pull himself together and make a
new start.
There was one very tall protectionist in
the procession. In fact. he was so tail
that as he marched behind some horse
men his head was nearly as high as the
heads of the mounted men. He attracted
attention all along the line of march.
The happy idea of a countermarch on
Market street gave the paraders an oppor-
tunity to enjoy view of the procession
in detail. and the various divisions cheered
their comrades on the march heartily as
they pissed. The countermarch also gave
the vast crowds of spectators an cpportu-
nifty to see the show twice.

pliance by the corporations or persons
operating them with the provisions of their
charter and the laws of the state." They
are to investigate all cases of accident and
loss of life; cases of discrimination in
rates, poor or insufficient rolling stock on
roads, poor depot facilities, ETC., etc.
Now we submit that just such board as
this is needed in Vermont as well as the
other states of the Union. Railroad cor
porations may mean well, but like individ-
uals they have selfish ends to serve. The
people Of the state who are dependent on
these roads absolutely for transportation
and the traffic of commerce should have
a voice in the management of the roads.
We are not prepared to say what the
present board has done or not done,
whether it is efficient or inefficient, but we
do say that the object for which the board
of railroad commissioners was created and
has been continued is highly commendable.
If the present board is inefficient, there
are others and good men too. And as to
the expenses, what is paltry $4,000 or
$4,000 year, when compared with the
benefit the people should derive from care
full, conscientious supervision of the rail-
way traffic OF the state?
Those who are clamoring for the aboli-
ton of the board should give few sound
reasons for the faith that is within them.

Wicked Railroad Commissioners.

A great hue-and-cry is being raised
against the board of railroad commission
ers, not because of anything they have
done but because of what they have not
done. The demands for the abolition Of
the board are frequent and loud, mostly
from selfconstituted watch-dogs of the
treasury whose shibboleth is retrenchment
in state expenses.
What is this board, how much is it cost
ing the state, and why should it be abol-
ished? The board as now constituted con-
sists of three members, Olin Merrill, Enos-
burgh Falls, o. M. Barber, Arlington, and
c. j. Bell, Walden. They are appointed
by the governor, by and with the advice Of
the senate, tor a term of two years, and
naturally the appointments 60 to political
favorites. The commissioners are allowed
SO day for actual service and expenses
and $5 day for a clerk, but the entire
expense of the commission cannot exceed
$4,000 annually, and as matter of fac
generally costs the state much less thar
this.
The board of commissioners has genera
supervision of all railroads within the state
They shall examine the railroads ant
keep themselves informed as to their con
dition, the manner in which they are oper
ated with reference to the security ant

One Normal School.

There seems to be growing sentiment
throughout the state in favor of abolishing
the present normal system and instead Of
three schools have one creditable institu-
ton equipped and run under state man.
agenfent
In recent issue the White River juno
ton Landmark said:
Whatever is done hereafter should be
carried out to some purpose. The expen-
diture should be used in way that will ac-
complish something. Let no more go to
the three schools-any two Of which are
absolutely unnecessary and the third is be-
low the rank in methods, scholarship and
results, of what true normal school ought
to be.
The Hardwick Gazette says:
Wipe out the entire system. Begin new.
Build on modern lines and base your sys-
tenn upon accepted modern methods.
There is no use taking pupils unfit to at
tend a first grammar school and hope to
make teachers of them by putting them
through the prescribed course. They are
not old enough to appreciate it, nor suffi-
ciently advanced to comprehend it. Wipe
out the entire system.
But to go further, the state pays the
University of Vermont, $4,000; Middle
bury college, $2400; Norwich University,
$24O0, total of $10,40 There goes to
the Agricultural college $4,000 of this
The rest is a pure gift and there seems to
be no reason for it.
The gifts to the so-called normal schools
and colleges aggregate nearly $4,000.
The way to do is to take away all these
gifts and put it into normal school under
state supervision and employing highly
trained instructors. In this way at no
greater expense than is now incurred the
state will raise the standard Of teaching
and thus improve all its schools.

Consistency a Jewel.

duces proof that in contract to deliver
four shiploads of timber to Long Island
City firm Mr.. Sewall has inserted an inter
esting little stipulation that his freigh,
money on the cargoes shall be paid in
"United States gold or its equivalent.
This was the precise language of the form
which Mr.. Sewall presented to the con.
signees for their signature.
Nor is this all. 1t is learned that Mr.
Sewalls great ship Susquehanna, which ha:
just loaded a cargo of kerosene oil fol
Japan, has clause in her contract also

License or Prohibition.

Several of the state papers have recently
been agitating the old chestnut of license
vs.. prohibition. Several of the contem-
poraries have expressed themselves in
favor Of submitting the question to direct
vote Of the people. While we do not sup
pose for minute that anything of the kind
will be done, we see no objection to that
way Of settling the matter. This is gov
ernment by the people and what the peo-
pie want they are pretty likely to get.
We predict that on direct vote not
half dozen towns in the state would vote
for license. While there are plenty Of
drinkers in Vermont and drinks of all
kinds can be had in all the larger places
without very much difficulty, the people as
a whole are pretty we'll satisfied with the
present law. 1t satisfies the ultra-prohi-
bitionist because in theory it is correct; it
satisfies the drinking man because in prac-
tice it does not inconvenience him to any
great extent in satisfying his thirst. Be-
tween these two classes stands the great
body of citizens of the state who are fo1
what in their honest judgment will conduce
most to the cause Of sobriety and good
government. These men are not prohibi.
tionists, nor are they licence men they are
simply good citizens and as such believe
that prohibiting an evil is preferable to Ii
censing it, even though the prohibition il
not absolute.
No doubt license bill will be introduced
in the legislature this fall, and no doubt il
will be quietly buried with the usual ma
jority.
Perhaps bill to submit the matter tt
the voters of the state would meet will
more favor, but even bill Of this natur,
could never pass Vermont legislature a
ordinarily constituted.
