Railway combInatIon in Vermont.

Whatever may be said for or against
consolidation of capital in large enter
prises, ii must be conceded that both
Vermont and New Hampshire have
been the gamers by the railroad deals
in these two states during the past dec
ade. Since the Central Vermont came
under the control of the Grand Trunk
there has been a vast Improvement in
its properly, with a passenger and
freight service rather better than at
any former period. The consolidation
and practical control OF the Rutland
and Ogdensburg railroads resulted in
building the Rutland-C Canadian road,
while the recent purchase of the Ben
nington and the Chatham and Lebanon
Valley roads gives the west side a
trunk line that must be a factor in the
railroad world incidentally, and direct
" an Improvement in the local service.
In New Hampshire the Boston Il
Maine practically owns and controls
all the railroads worth considering and
the passenger service has never been
so good in the history Of the state as

Holders OF unused bank check books
containing the two-cent revenue stamp
that was required prior to July LIST are
liable to discover how much easier it is
to pay Uncle Sam than to collect from
him when they try to get the stamps
redeemed. As matter Of right, all
stamps unused on July LIST should be
redeemed to the purchaser at Just what
he paid for them. But the thing has
gotten so badly enmeshed in red tape
that the process of redemption is a te-
dious one. Under departmentrulings,
it will be necessary Tor the check books
to be turned in and retained by the
government as vouchers for the moneys
paid out in redeeming the stamps, and
this can only be done, under another
ruling, by the party who originally
paid for the stamp imprint. 1t be-
comes necessary, therefore, to hunt up
this party and hire him to perform the
service, if he can be found and hired.
Perhaps some better way will be de-
vised later.
