Libel Suits Quickly Settled.

"wednesday afternoon we looked over
our diary and found that we had no less
than five libel suits coming up at this term
Of court" says the Arizora Kicker.
ssBuckling on our guns we made our first
call on George Thompson, the wel[known
attorney. He thought we we're out Of
town and was therefore unprepared for our
visit. He was naturally inclined to argue
the case but we had no time to spare. Just
what transpired need not be particularized
but in the course of ten minutes we dis
posed of 5000 suit.
sWe then called at the office of Major
Simcoe and it did not take five minutes to
do business with him. Henry Jones was
courtesy itself when we entered bis office
and Thomas White saw the point as soon
as be noticed our guns. j. Shorter, who
was counsel in suit for $4,000. was the
only man incline d to be obstinate. We had to
stand him against the wall and let him look
into the muzzle Of gun tor two or three
minutes before his face took on homesick
look.
s.Of the five he was the only one who
refused to drink with us, but we feel that
he will be in better spirits after few days.
'.In the course of two hours we cleared
the docket of libel suits sggregating
S175. 900 and are now ready for q new
crop. We have our little way about these
things and we believe that other Arizona
editors can copy it to their financial
benefit

Skipped.

For the past two months G. Edwin Gard
ner has been night clerk at the Rocking
ham hotel, and until Saturday night was
considered an honest and efficient employee.
Saturday night he was left in charge Of the
hotel as usual, but before the 2.30 train
was due to leave for Boston he had made
every preparation to jump aboard. He
took $39.81 out Of the money drawer,
1922 belonging to guest, and cigars,
and other property to the total value OF
something less than 800. He also took
with him a banjo which he had rented OF
G. L. Barber. When he went to the train
Conductor George Bowtell surmised there
was something wrong and asked Night
Baggagemaster Roberts to inform Police
man Thompson and let him investigate the
case. Mr.. Roberts looked about the
Square and not finding Mr.. Thompson,
Gardner was allowed to 60 on to Boston
unmolested.
Mr.. Gardner's departure was not known
at the hotel until the cook wanted fire for
breakfast Sunday morning. Not finding
Gardner she notified L. T. Lowell Mr..
Lowell began an investigation, and found
that the train was then nearly due in Bos-
ton, but telegram sent to intercept the
absconder failed in its purpose. L. G.
Lowell went to Boston on the 8 P. M. train
Sunday to catch the thief if possible.
Gardner has mother living in Poultney,
and several years ago was bell boy in
Towns hotel. He has a brother, who,
with his wife, runs restaurant on Wash
ington street in Boston. He is a young
man 25 or % years old and with quiet but
rather pleasing manners.

INSURANCE COMMISSION.
Some Reasons Why Vermont Should
Have One Insurance Commits
SiOner Instead of Two.

Editor Belknap:
"Who wants a single insurance COM
missioner instead of two as nowp" is q
question often asked by those discussing
the subject. The answer is easy: Obser-
walton in all localities is convincing that it Is
wanted by Dine-tenths of the citizens and
insurance officials whose duties call them
to do business with the department, ex-
cepting only the personal friends of the
present incumbents. 1t would be as
absurd to have two governors or two heads
of any state department and located at
distant points in the state, as to have two
heads in charge Of our insurance interests.
Every other state has single head con-
trolling its insurance.
"No one wants the change except those
who want the office" is also said, entirely
incorporating general sentiment in this
state upon an important matter and for
obvious reasons. With regard to nv Of r
sonal connection with the proposed change,
the facts are these: From many years OF
experience and familiarity with every part
of Vermont, | have seen the needs in this
respect. l have seen what heavy drain
our fire losses are upon the resources of the
state how our people have been duped by
irresponsible fire, life and accident COM
panies and have thought much on the best
means Of helping to correct this condition
of things. The result, that during the last
few weeks l have spent much time study
ing and framing the bill introduced into
the house by Mr.. Carpenter of Rutland
last week, compiled from laws of other
states and adapted to the needs of this. In
this have had the advice Of some of the
best legal, judicial and insurance authori-
ties in Vermont. If this bill becomes a
law, my only wish is that the best man be
then chosen to fill the office of commits
sioner and have charge of our insurance
interests.
Vermont needs more close supervision
of its insurance interests than can be given
by two commissioners, each having impor-
tant personal business or profession, need
ing their whole time. Adding the office of
secretary of state and state treasurer this
certainly leaves no adequate time to de-
vote to important insurance interests. /
intend no personal reference to our insur-
ance commissioners, past or present, when
/ say that the Vermont law, as it now
stands, provides a double salary for the
two officials whom it places in charge of
our insurance interests. In addition to
their salarie. Of s17n0 each, e. SECRETARY

that whenever he made mistake and the
player justly objected he would immediate
ly send him out Of the game, and generally
off the grounds. His temper, Hart said, was
displayed several times in the games he UNI
pired in this city few weeks ago.
President Hart says: Although ! have
asked for the dismissal of Umpire Lynch, l
do not think he will be let go Immediately.
President Young would wait until several
more of the teams raised an objection to his
work. and then would discharge him. I may
be the first president Of club to object to
him, l may be the one that will cause
him to be dropped. Everybody who saw his
miserable work while In this city will remem-
Der how far off he was on balls and strikes,
and If a player objected in the least to
not favor that kind of despotism. and Lynch
should be removed to make room for an
umpire who understands the business.
Through his decisions we have lost more
than one game which justly belonged to us.
Il filed my charges two days after Griffith
was put out of the game. l waited that long
because l did not want it to seem as though
l was angry at pitchers punishment.
Lynch may have had right to put Griffith
out of the game. or he may not; but at any
rate he is a poor umpire and should be dis
missed. l can stand an honest umpire who
is little rank but man with a temper
like Lynch, and who uses his authority to
revenge himself on a player, should have no
place in the major league"
Lynch has been umpire In the Nation-
til few years ago one Of the best men
in the business. OF late ii seems his eye
sight has become poor and he has not given
any satisfaction.
