New Paris Wants Sleep.
New Pans Mirror, Oct. s1.l

On two or three nights of last
week hack loads of students, said to
be from the Richmond High School,
and out for a time, were on our
streets making Rome howl. They
INDUCED in songs and class yells as
they drove about town to late hour
keeping the people awake. They
probably had no evil intent. but it
was a nuisance which Marshal Bish
does not propose to see repeated and
should they come again they will
probably learn that they can not do
on the streets of New Paris what
they would not think of doing on the
streets of Richmond

DISMISSED THE APPEAL
Supreme Court Silently Sustains Wee
Cutting Law.

Indianapolis. Oct. 31.-The supreme
court has refused TO decide whether
work in cutting weeds along the pub
lie road is such work as entities land
owner to credit on his road tax, dis
missing an appeal from the judgment
holding that IL is. The Judgment was
pronounced ia a mandanlus proceed
ing against a road supervisor in Perry
township and directed him to issue
a receipt for S12 on account of work
done in cutting weeds. The effect of
the dismissal is to leave the Judgment
in full force. but the supreme court re
fused to pass on the merits OF the
appeal, because it was taken by a
road supervisor who had ceased to
hold Office before the appeal was per-
fected.

standing, in Manchuria the Russian
will almost certainly remain. There is
but one way to eject him and that is by
force OF arms. He established himself
there with the sanction of the Chinese
government and will to certainty fight
for what be has acquired should the
Mikado force the issue. There we're
reports to the effect that Japan had
sent an ultimatum to the capital of
Russia. They were without founda-
ton. Later advices also make it clear
that nothing stronger than protests are
likely to complicate the Eastern situa-
ton.
A few more heads may fall, big
mortgage will be placed on China, cus-
todians representing the mortgages
will remain on the property, Russia
will have the right of way for her ST.

Port Arthur, China's military power
will be hamstrung, the powers will one

press will be back in Pekin, and China
will abide in a perpetual receivership.
Such appears to be the end toward
which affairs in the Flowery Kingdom

The Song OF the VermOnters.

The subjoined matter is an interest
ing contribution to the literature of this
lyric, lively interest in which has
been revived by its recent republica-
ton in this paper. No truer character
ization of the song, its language and its
perfect embodiment Of the spirit of the
times to which it relates, has been
made than that of the man whom our
correspondent rightly styles "the late
distinguished and ever to be remember
ed Vermont singing master, Moses E.
Cheney" himself a Vermonter of the
Allen type. The production is proper
ly entitled to rank as the Quaker Poets
master piece.

THE SONG OF THE vERMoNTERs.


"This song was written by the poet
Whittier, fifty and more years ago, at
the suggestion of Thomas Green Fec
sender, and as he did not care to be
known as the author, it passed as a
veritable Ethan Allen production, and
as such, was set TO mutic in 1915, and
sung by the Cheney Family at their
concerts in New York, Brooklyn, Jer-
sey City and elsewhere, as Aliens COM
position. 1t was so true to Aliens
time, none doubted It's date. But could
he write 80 well? Some said his broth
or Ira could.'
When the singers got round to Bar
net, VT, says one of their number -
Moses, who wrote this sketch in 1875
thatprier into historical matters, Henry
Stevens, told them who made the song.
"Still we let it run as it listed; it was
none of our business to correct the
printer and expose the Quaker.
Certainly Vermont has always had
war poets enough and to spare; hence
it seems remarkable that it fell upon a
NONRESIDENT, as we'll as nonresident,
who had never seen our State, to throw
himself back sixty.ave years among the
Aliens, Warmers, and Bakers, and burst
forth into the only song that tells the
story perfectly to the life; teeming
with the defiant fury of those vehement,
determined, triumphant men.

A Pointer for Vermont.

The Vermont Legislature at the last
session turned down a corporation bill
introduced by y Rutland county Sena-
tor. This bill in its main features re.
sembled the corporation law of New
Jersey. We think our lawmakers acted
hastily in rejecting this bill. We see
that the Maine Legislature has passed
a similar bill. The steel company,
which has been recently organized I'M
der The laws Of New Jersey with bill
lion dollar capital, will have no more
rights and privileges under its articles OF
incorporation, probably than it would
have had in case it had sought Ver-
mont charter under . law similar to the
measure which the Legislature turned
down last November. The organiza-
ton fee of this steel company was
something over $3.50, 900 paid into the
State treasury of New Jersey, and
there is statute provision by which
the company makes the State an annu.
al payment of $4,000. No one can
tell whether this vast corporation
would have been attracted TO Vermont,

Defending the Woodlands.

The WATERMAN welcomes the CON-
munication, Unpublished elsewhere in this
issue, on the subject of farmers wood
lands. The writer is an individual who
has paid considerable attention to the
subject of land and lumber values in
this and other countries, and the con-
siderations he addresses to the atten-
ton of farmers are of great and real
importance. The constantly increas-
ing demand for timber of all kinds and
its advancing price, in the rough, on
the stump and manufactured, and the
worth the annual growth of timber i'm
parts to farms, "holding up their val
ue," are matters for serious reflection
in connection with proposition to sell
or take off the timber, unless it has
matured aud will go backward by be-
ing left to stand. The Increase in the
value Of thrifty, growing wood or tim
Der lots, not exposed to fire or devastG-
ton from outside sources does, indeed,
make them better investment than an
equivslentin money deposited in bank.
But the "skinning" of wooded tracts,
the additions to the spreading area of
"Hell's Acre." are not by the farmers,
not to any large extent. The farmers
have generally due appreciation Of
the value of their woodlands, and are
outstanding their resources. The
"skinning" is done, for the most part,
on lots of "wild lands" apart from the
farms; on the areas up among the
mountain spurs and on their slopes.
The menace to the States forests
and to its rural beauty comes from the
pulp and lumber people rather than
from the farmers-though it is IN
doubtedly true that too many farmers,
IN straits for money, or to add uaVtsc-
ly to their bank account, or from i'm
providence, or by reason of that malice
towards a growing tree that moves
them to hew it down and convert it into
stove wood, are contributing their
share to the woodland devastation thai
is impairing the natural wealth anC
beauty of the famed Green Mountain
land.
But Gabriel will have to DO enlisted
iu the cause of conserving Vermont't
forest areas, and restoring to a wood
land growth the millions of despoleC
acres fit only for the use to which the
Almighty put them originally. The
archangel's trumpet might reach The
ears of lawmakers and devastators
and move them to stay their hand
The apathy of the grave possesses the
former and the remorseless cupidity o.
avarice the latter. Some agency more
than mortal is required for awakening
a timely care and interest in question
of 80 grave Importance that the gov
ernments of Europe long ago took il
under their own direct and rigid con
troll. There are wholesome strains il

road commission and hearing was
granted, which OF course involved a
considerable expense to the State. 1t
ia now announced that the board has
decided that it has no jurisdiction in the
matter In other words it has no au-
thority to compel the railroad company
to provide any measures OF safety. The
matter of giving the railroad commits
sion reasonable amount of power or
abolishing the present farce was thor
oughly discussed by the press and pee
pie previous to and during the last Gen
ersl Assembly. A bill was presented
in that body which would have given
the commission some power, but it
never reached the Governor. The
General Assembly as body refused to
grant the railroad commission any ju-
risdiction; it refused to abolish use
less and expensive commission. 1t al
lowed the thing to 90 along in it's pres
ent state with just enough power to
enable its members to draw their
breath and secure a good salary
Mortified News.
1t seems to be difficult for the COM
mission TO find case in which it has
jurisdiction; if the shadow of lawful
authority falls on any circumstances it
is asked to review, the shade is all that
pertains to the matter; there is DO
power to cause it to materialize and be-
come tangible, aggressive substance.
The commissions effective jurisdiction
is really limited to its duties as coro-
ner's jury in certain cases, and to
drawing its per-diem and charges for
hotel bills and incidental expenses
when abroad on one of its official excur-
sions-or incursions. Then the ques-
ton of jurisdiction or power to act is
never raised. 1t becomes reality
living, tangible, substantial, as the tax
payers understand.
In the recent hearing in the Granite
street crossing case in this city the
usual conclusion, "no Jurisdiction" was
the result. The commission could d
ulsCON6E, Hudt bG6Luou W DO QulIS
clear to unjudicial eyes, that the spur
into the stone sheds was part of a
railway system, which the railway con-
cedes to be the fact. Its jurisdiction
in this case, if the testimony Of one OF
the parties to the hearing is trust
worthy, was exercised in counseling the
city as to the ways and means Of get
ting the matter into court-to wit, to
fill the depression at the crossing, bury
the track, blockade the road, embarrass
an important industry, aud thus pre-
pare the way to determine whether or
not the spur was part Of railwf y
system. The information seems to be
likely to be forthcoming, whether or
not the commissions advice-as re-
ported--w Rs wise or otherwise.

Ancient Hymn to a Dying Christian,

Sleep on beloved sleep and take thy rest
Lay do Un thy head upon u Saviour's breast.
We love thee well, but Jesus loves thee best
Goodnight
Calm Is thy slumber as an infants sleep,
But thou shalt wake no more to toll and weep,
Goodnight
Until the shadow from the earth is cast,
Until He gathefs In His sheaves at last,
Until the twilight gloom is overpast-
Goodnight
Until the Easter glory lights the Skies
Until the dead in Jesus shall arise,
Goodnight.
Until made beautiful by love divine,
Thou in the likeness of thy Lord shat shine,
And He shall bring shat golden crown Of thine

Only goodnight" beloved, not FAREWELL
A little WHILE and all His saints shall dwell
In hallowed union visible
Goodnight
Until we meet again before His throne,
Clothed in the spotless robes lie gives His own,
Until we know even as we are known
