hanging out the American flag with the stars

should always be at the top. When the pole
is hung from window they should still be
outside. To reverse the order and hang the
flag with the stars down is recognized in
suit to the flag. Our esteemed contemporary

Burden of Proof on Circuit.

And really just because other men want
the office it is no reason why Gen. Grout
should be turned down. He is one of the
most useful men in the New England dele
cation, perfectly conversant with all forms
of legislation and the longer he is kept in
congress the more valuable he is to Yer
mont. There is no necessity of a change
this year and there will be no change
made st. Johnsbury Caledonian.
Why not save trouble by electing Grout
for ten-year term instead of two? If he
is to have the office ''for life or during
good behavior" thee biennial pro forma
occasions are altogether unnecessary. And
granting that he is ''useful" and perfectly
conversant with all forms of legislation
(Which, indeed, he would be Unfortunately
dull not to be by this time) is it at all likely
that Vermont would suffer by sending such
men as Plumley or Read insteadp II yes,
then no charge should be made. IF no,
the spirit of our form of government, which
is not monarchial or dynastic, but republi-
can and elective, warrants change. The
burden of proof is on Grout to show cause
why he should longer hold the office
