The Free Press publishes for pur-
poses OF comparison the court records
of the city of Burlington for three
months in 1896, when everything was
"wide-open, aud a similar period this
year, when prohibition has been ap-
piled As never before. The compari-
son is all in favor of the latter period.
Against 30 cases of intovication in 'a6
there Were 36 this year. Other often.
ces in which liquor played prominent
part also show falling off. If this
comparison is a fair one, that is, if the
96 period were not particularly bad
one, it makes strong argument for
prohibition as it is now enforced in the
Queen City. In our opinion, the most
liquor will be drunk, the most money
wasted for it, the most intoxication
and crime follow, where there is the
freest opportunity to obtain it. No
body wants rum sold as sugar and
flour are sold. Some limit must be
put to it. Believers in license saw.
and some of them think, that a few
places, carried on under strict regula-
tons, with heavy penalties, are better
than many low dives which exist where
prohibition is a partial failure. or than
3 total stoppage of the traffic, where it
is fully enforced, SO that even those
who drink in moderation cannot OBJ
tain liquor. Believers in prohibition
say, and some of them think that IL
cense regulations, are generally dis
regarded that it is impossible to draw
any line between moderate and exces-
siye drinkers, and that inasmueh as
the use Of liquor as a beverage is not
claimed to be of benefit to anyone.
even moderate drinking should be dis

The Barre Times makes a suggestion
that strikes us as a good one and we
would like to see it put into effect. 1t
is that for the purpose of determining
conclusively what is the sense of the
Republican voters Of Vermont as to
the respective Senatorial canvasses,
the primary system be adopted. This
means a series of caucuses Of Republi-
cans in every town in the state on a GER
tain date, at which they vote directly
on the issue OF who shall be the candi-
date, and the majority in the state
rules, the Legislature, when it meets,
simply carrying out the wishes of the
voters so expressed. This is virtually
an election by popular vote, such as
seven-eighths Of the people believe in.
This system is used with general salts
faction in a number of southern states.
1t is right in line with Gen. CIRCUITS
caucus plan for allowing patrons to
choose their postmasters, and he might
be expected to favor it. Nor would
the other candidates be likely to OBJ
ject, A mutual agreement between
them ought TO warrant the state COM
mittee in naming the date and making
the arrangements.

brother stumbleth."
What is the difference between spec
ulation and investment ? is q question
often asked by those who dabble in The
stock market, as a complete justitica
ton of their course. They say thai
every investment in anything that
promises to yield a profit is specula'
ton. The man who buys calf specu.
lates on the chances that the calf will
live and amount to something. Some
think he takes just the kind of chance
that a man does who buys pork, trust
| ing to the rise in the market for his
profit. To us, there seems to be a dis
| tinctiOn, though we may be unable to
make ii clear The one we would call
investment; the other speculation.
The man who buys the calf knows that
in the natural course ofevents he will
make an ultimate profit. The chances
are all in favor Of the calI's living and
OF its being worth more when grown
than when he bought it, He gains a
right to this added value by the care,
attention and expense he constantly in
vests in it. How is it with the bayer
OF pork, on margin or otherwise, as is
done through the market operations?
He puts up sum of money to buy
something that he never sees or wants
to see and does nothing atterward but
wait for the wheel of fortune to send
up the price Of pork. The pork is no
better when be sells than when he BUYS
he does nothing to improve its quail /
ity He has no moral right to any en-
HANGED value that may come to it. The /
stock market is the tickle creature of
rumor and quite as often prices turn
pa some idle tale, circulated for the |
