from this "fount of every blessing, "
in the letter here presented.
Cambridge, Vt, July Z, 1902
Hon. p w. Clement.
Dear Sir:-You say you welcome
any opportunity to discuss the pro-
hibitory law Do you wish to do so
through the columns of your paper,
or by letter, or only from your plat
form? If you would discuss the mat
ter by letter, | would inquire what
there is in the prohibitory law as it
stands on our statutes today that is 50
obnoxious to the law abiding, in
dustrious people of Vermont? Kindly
state how and where high license,
local option, or saloons and free rum
will improve the condition of the
laboring man or his dependents?
What are some of these benefits to
be derived by establishing saloons in
a town? In your opinion will it be
conducive to the rising generation,
the hope of the future? Would
you employ a man who is an habitual
drinker to transact any important
business? Will license law establish
standard for law and good order in
a community? In your opinion will
local option or high license give the
public liquors more free from adul-
terations than those sold under the
prohibitory law?
Last, but not least, will the youth
of Vermont be benefited by establish
ing saloon in every town in the
State, with all the restrictions
added?
l should be pleased to discuss some
or all points with you by correspon.
dence. | enclose an addressed stamp.
ed envelope for reply. If you do not
care to discuss this matter please re.
turn this letter.

the contingency Of popular vote and
other future uncertainties is with
out all just foundation in sound poll
cy or sound reasoning, and that it
has too often been made more from
necessity than choice-rather to es-
cape from an overwhelming analogy
than from any obvious difference in
principle i'll the two classes of cases {;
for, as has been mentioned, one may
find any number of cases, in the leg
islation of Congress, where statutes
have been made dependent upon the
shifting character of the revenue
laws, or the navigation laws, or
commercial rules, edicts, or restric-
lions of other countries.
The same principle is involved in
the law which provides that manu-
featuring establishments may be ex-
empt from taxation for period of
years if the town so votes. This law
was for some time said to be uncon-
stitutional by persons who argued
against the expediency of making
such exemptions, but it was decided
by our Supreme Court in 1885, in the
case of Cotton and More V. City of
Montpelier, II VT, Alb, that the
law was constitutional. That decision
was the unanimous expression of the
following judges, who composd the
Supreme Court: Russell S. Taft,
Chief Judge, John W. Rowell, James
M. Tyler, Loveland Munson, Laforrest
H. Thompson and John H Watson,
four of whom now constitute ma
jority of the Supreme Court
The opinion is in the words of tue
late Judge Thompson, and the fol-
lowing extract is taken from his opin-
ion in that case:
1T is not necessary that legisla-
tive act should take effect at the time
it leaves the hand of the Legislative
department in order to have it COM
plete, affirmative legislation. Its OPP
Grafton may be made to depend upon
some subsequent event, and yet ii
may have passed through all the con.
stitutional formalities necessary to
perfected legislation. "
The case of State V. Parker is cited
in support of this principle, and, con-
tinuing, Judge Thorn pson says,
"Such statute is V. S. 365. 1t is
left for the town or city to say
whether it will avail itself of the
privilege conferred by the law to en-
courage manufactures or not. Whe1
it legally votes to exempt for a stated
time from taxation property enumer
ated in that section it thereby brings
such property within the scope o.
the law but it neither adds to mol
takes from the statutes by such vote.
If the foregoing opinion, which il
not only that of the undersigned, bu
represents the learning and wisdom O
nine judges of the Supreme Court o
Vermont, four of whom constitute
majority of the Court before which
a referendum law would go for de
cision, is not sufficient for the Re
