TEN examination so little disease was
found the citizens became very indignant.
and a member of the board telephoned to
Burlington for police protection. After
the work was done, the board to console
Mr. Talcott and family for the great loss
they had sustained, said, You are to D.
congratulated, Mr.. Talcott, that we have
found the disease so slight as not to have
endangered the herds of your neighbors.'
Mr. Biselow also says: Most of the
Williston writer's seem to have rather
vague notions in regard to what the duties
of the cattle commissioners are We have
some ideas on the subject, but perhaps
have failed to clearly express them. We
think their first duty would have been to
find out what is the best way to deal with
bovine tuberculosis as 1t exists in Ner-
mont AS we understand the law it does
not compel tho commissioners to execute
it in the blind, reckless way they have in
Williston.
When Mr.. Hitchcock. accompanied by
his veterinarian, DR.. Rich. came to my
place to know if was ready to have my
cows tested, I told them l questioned the
practicability of the work they We're doing
and said our ncighboring States, after try
ing this same method had been compelled
to abandon it. Mr.. Hitchcock said: Il do
not know what they are doing. Do you
Rich?" DIR. Rich replied he did not.
Now is it possible these men were tax
ing the responsibility of mourning this
great expense to the state and the dostruc-
ton of the main industry of this town,
without so much as informing themselves
as to what other States were doing under
similar circumstances?
Now as the people are calling for light
on this matter and as the commisslohel7
seem only willing to use a light that VIII

some observations anent the standing Of
Nermonts Junior senator:
Whether X IS in a State Legislature or
in the national Congress, the hest and
most effective work of a It preSentatiV. Of

themselves. There is a queer sort or an
IDEA IN some quarters that a man f. doing

FREQUENT slam hang speeches and fllins the
CO untry full of them in tyne. 1t doesn {
occupy much of a senator or congress
mans time to do this and 1t don't require
or produce much mental WEAKNESS. This
SORT of thing may tickle the rable but
cent count here. This is applicable TO any
enc. and more especially to Senator Will

usually attained crly by senators of sew

sonally informed by an associate Of tho
senator's. is abundantly justifying their
OPINION of him. Out of the Sc senators not
