Vermont is hardly the state where
one would expect noteworthy Anar-
chistic Or Socialistic activity, but Sun
days affair at Barre, resulting in the
killing and wounding of several men,
shows that the Green Mountain State
is unfortunate enough to have at least Il
few of these people among it's popula-
ton. While it is by no means true
that all Socialists are Anarchists, there
is nevertheless a great element among
those calling themselves Socialists
which holds views that are nothing less
than anarchism in it's most menacing
form. Most of those calling themselves
Socialists in this country would be
called Anarchists in Europe. The re-
deeming feature of the affair at Barre,
is that they fought among themselves
There will be little fault to find if they
continue such a course to it's logical end
The names of those involved in the
Vermont shooting and stabbing affray
show the need of more stringent immi-
grafton restrictions to stem the tide
from southern Europe.

These are great days for Boston. Its
famous military and social organiza-
ton, the Ancient and Honorable
Artillery company, dating from 1888. is
entertaining the Honorable Artillery
connany of London which is it's parent
organization and has had continuous
existence from 1887. The Londoners
are there, 200 strong, and they are hav-
ing o solid week Of banquets and
parades and receptions. Editorial
paragraphers are not able to resist the
temptation to say a few words about
the fusilade of champagne corks which
Massachusetts, bay is now echoing, but
the occasion Is nevertheless one which
ii to be taken seriously for it counts
much for International good will. The
London company came over once be-
made for its reception as are being made
this time. Later the Boston organiza-
ton went to England and it's welcome
was of such truly national character,
that it proposes to make up now for
anything that was lacking in 1890.
The Honorable Artillery Company
of London was founded early in the
sixteenth century, under Henry VIII,
and possesses certain privileges and
immuIlities of it's own. The King him.
self is it's captain general and colonel"
Willie it's lieutenant colonel and actual
commander is the Earl of Denbigh and
Desmond. 1t possesses, however, an
actual military character, and may be
fact. it did home duty during the Boer
war. In this respect the Boston Or
ganization is quite different. it's mill
tary functions being purely nominal.
The Ancients, however. are by no
means useless in the military scheme
of the old Bay State. Membership be-
ing regarded as high honor, and
officers Of rank in the militia being
proud to carry Il musket in it's ranks,
its uniform serves the purpose of an
honorary decoration. 1t helps to keep
alive the military spirit. 1t may be
considered the parent body. the nucleus
of the militia organizations Of the
United States, and though the keeping
up of it's quaint ancient customs and
the publicity given an occasional
convivial gathering gives an excuse for
good natured railery in the papers, es-
pecially those of New York. it is still
an institution which Boston is as proud
Of az it is of the Common and Bunker
Hill, and it will flourish as long as they
do.
After week in Boston the 200 Lon
doners with several hundred Boston
Ancients will go by special train to
New York. Washington, Niagara and
Montreal, coming back to Boston to
embark for home. They will call on the
President and everywhere there will be
demonstrations and interchanges of
courtesy. military and civil worthy tina
distinguished visitors. who come as
brothers not as a foreign military body.
1t Is pity they are not to come down
to the Maine coast or up into the Maine
woods for few days. They Will go
back to England, having had the time
of their lives, however, and having
made firmer and more sincere the
clasp of the hands across the sea.

When Nature, pausing, seems to stand at
gaze
In love with Peace, as she would fain give
The winters strife, and battle wage no
more?
How soft the sky, where not cloud doth
move!
And softer than the tender blue above
That other sky. deep in the waveless lake.
Upon whose shore nor birds nor bees
awake
A spirit-touch the meanest thing makes
fair,
And spicy odors rove the amber air
The drowsy light. pallid with languor.
falls
On crimson tree, and cedar's outspread
pals
a mellow radiance through the woodland
And wraps the fields in atmosphere of
dreams.
So long the tryst between the earth and
Tnanchored ships at willing anchor lie
For all things, great and small
enamounred are
Of uuietness-the breeZes rest affair."
And gadding insects, that delight to roam,
Furl their bright sails, content TO stay
Soon Twilight wins all to her pensive
mood
The stiffness deepens in the lonely wood,
AS though Silence were dead, and her wan
ghost
Haunted the charmed spot she loved the
But Memory wakes. for she can never die
TO breaking hearts, who list her furtive
sigh,
AS she gives back to Thought the golden
haze
Of long departed dear October days.
