Mr.. Editor. your permission,
wish to address through THE TELE.
GRAM an open letter to the Committee
on Education Of the General Assembly
now in session at Montpelier, with
reference to some defects in the truant
laws of the State Of Vermont. While
! do not wish to assume that under
stand the subject thoroughly, I can
truthfully say that have spent some
time in attempting to get correct
idea OF the law and can also speak as
to the actual working OF the same
from my own experience.
l think alLwill agree that the or.
ject and intent Of the law is perfectly
commendable and proper, viz, that
every child in the State, that is not
mentally or physically incapable of
receiving instruction, shall between
the ages of eight and fifteen years at
least, have the benefit Of % weeks
schooling in each year, whether bis
parents be rich or poor, or their rank
high or low.
All who have had any experience in
the matter will I think agree with
me that this object fails of attain:
mcnt, either through carelessness, ne
elect or intentional evasion of the law
on the part Of some of the parties
interested.
l am thoroughly convened that
the. violations of law are in no small
part due to the present ambiguous
and obscure wording of statutes and
to the fact that the meaning of the
wJrd truant or the duties OF the
truant officer are nowhere clearly de-
fined.
I would call especial attention to
the provisions Of Sec. 7l6, vermont
Statutes, 1894 which requires, under
penalty OF fine, teachers to notify a |
truant officer of violations of law by
pupils enrolled in their schools, but
does not make it the duty Of the
truant officer to act without such
notice from a teacher. If a COM
plant be made by any other person a
truant officer is under no obligation
to take any notice of it, neither does
his non-action make him liable to a |
fine. Further, the duty of a teach err
only includes pupils actually enrolled.
If then person having control Of
child neglects to send such child at
The beginning of term, the teacher
Is barred from giving notice. Or,
should it be given, the officer, if so
disposed, may plead the fact of the
child not being actually enrolled as
MAXI g the teacher s notice of no legal
value.
AS a remedy, l suggest that the
statute be amended by making it
The duty Of truant officer to act
whenever notified on a case of non
attendance by teacher, citizen Of the
own or town officer.
There are, no doubt, other defects
hat could be mentioned, notably the
bSence Of legal definition or the
vord truant, but it is my belief that
the faults above mentioned could
'e corrected by the passage of House
ill 1914, now under consideration by
he committee, it would further the
EDUCATIONAL interests of our state.

NASHVILLE, Birmingham and
other cities are demanding a law 70
prohibit the druggists from selling
cocaine. We are glad to know that
the majority of our druggists are
obeying a moral law and refusing of
their own accord 10 sell the poison
Gus stuff TO their fellow man. But
the only successful way to prevent
the growth of the cocaine, morphine
and whiskey habits, is for the Fed
eral government to prohibit their
manufacture or sale except by a
Federal dispensary for medicinal
purposes only. If Mr.: Mckinley,
the Methodist steward aud professed
Prohibitionist, wants to do some real
service to his country, he should rec
ommend such a law to Congress.
Maybe he would If a petition from
every city, town and hamlet in the
Union was presented him. With the
| House and SENATE strongly Republi-
can, he could push 1t through as an
Administrator measure if he would.
And why should not he, as we'll as
any other church officer and temper.
ance advocate, do what he can for
humanity? If a man has place and
power and will not use it for the
good of others, is he not a party TO
the wrong he could prevent? We
Americans make a big fuss some
times about little things and neglect
the greater ones. Now, between
elections, during "these piping times
of peace" as it were, suppose we
organize and make a non-partisar
strong pull altogether for National
prohibition against whiskey, NOR
phine and cocaine, except for medic
} inal purposes strictly.

of the northern district of Alaska is
IL, 652 Maurice Johnson, the agent
for this district, travelled over 1000
miles with dog teams during the
winter and enumerated 30l3 per-
sons, all of whom were Indians Mr..
johnson visited seventy four interior
villages and during the time saw but
three fires burning in the shacks or
dug outs. Tne poor creatures hud-
die together in their miserable Dwell
liDgs during the long winter and
subsist on frozen fish and a little seal
oil, which they secure on the coast
during the summer.

populous III Northern Alaska. 1t is
probable that the population of the

be between 1000 and 5000"

THERE have been a good many
dirty things done in politics, but Jew
dirtier than one perpertrated by
Odell and Roosevelt. Knowing that
the Republican Attorney-General of
New York had officially reported
that Mayor Van Wyck was innocent
of wrong doing in connection with
the ice trust, they suppressed the re-
port and made dozeus of speeches
denouncing him for his connection
with it. Now telegram of Otells
has come to light advising Roose-
welt not to give out this opinion I'M
til after the ele ction. That is to say,
an innocent man has been wantonly
placed and kept under suspicion to
win a partisan advantage.

WHEN THE ROSES COME AGAIN

Meath the shadow, down the meadow,
Dead leaves lie on every side;
Bv the river flowers SILVER,
Fading, dying in their pride;
Some ones straying long delaying,
Sad the parting down the lane,
81 must leave you.' some ones saving,
"Till the roses come again"
CHORUS.
When the roses come again,
When the roses come again,
| will meet you'll will greet you
When the roses come again.
AS wander | will ponder,
On the happy by-and by,
On the summer over yonder,
Fraut with Joy to you and I.
DO not borrow pain and sorrow,
From the hours that yet remain,
We shall know glad to morrow,
When the roses come again.
, Sunshine over crimson clover
Blossomed in the meadows wide:
Summers fingers fondly linger,
Everywhere on every side.
In the cleaning some ones roaming.
Happy hearts that feel no pain,
Ali their sadness turned to gladness,
Now the roses come again.

A WASHINGTON paragragher says:
"Eyen the most ardent Democrat
cannot deny that business will be
better this winter than 1t would have
been had Bryan won. True, the Re-
public may be turned into an
oiigarchy and the Declaration of
Independence trampled under foot,
but nevertheless, we will make more
money this winter than we would
otherwise have DONE" This man
represents a large class Of the Nc
Kinley voters. They are leeches
upon the body polite. A genuine
patriotic impulse never warmed
their blood one moment of their
lives. To turn this Republic into
an oIigarchy and tiample under foot
the Declaration of Independence,
are matters of no moment to them,
provided they make more money
this winter" A patriot like Bryan
would spurn the vote of such COM
mercial gluttons.
