the Vermont League will visit Quebec
and present a memorial urging a uni
fOrmity of laws for this state and Can
ada the commissioners there would
hear them favorably. With this in
! view an excursion has been arranged
! commencing Aug. 30, and lasting
! three days. The railroads will all
i give reduced rates, the fare from
/ Newport being $4.13. It is understood
that the local clubs Of Quebec wish to
invite and entertain as many OF the
/ visitors as can remain for more than
the three days contemplated for the
! excursion. Il is hoped that at least
; 200 members and friends of the league
! will respond to the call.
