Bait for Summer Visitors

Rutland despatch to the Boston
Transcript, printed under the above head
ing, says Its principle having been
adopted as the policy of the state, the
Vermont Local Option league now pur-
poses to use its influence to popularize
the license system during the next two
years so that 1t will become impossible
for the prohibitionists to carry out their
threat to secure the repeal of the law
by the next Legislature This the
league expects to do by inducing the in
Nestment of outside capital in summer
NOT -. md in industries which were kept
out BY he prohibitory law, and by insist
in upon the enforcement of the restric-
Il provisions of the local option law
Percival w. Clement leader of the local
option movement, has asserted that $50
600 would be invested in a hotel on Lake
Champlain as soon as a license law was
adopted. 1t is understood here that as
soon as he returns from his trip to
Europe he will interest himself in ad-
vancing the interests of the state as a
summer resort. The Local ODtion
League expects an immediate develop
ment for the city of Burlington, and in
fact all of the east shore of Lake Cham
plain, where there is now not one large
summer hotel Mr. Clement, when he
knew that the bill had been accepted,
declared that under no conditions should
there be such fragrant violations as had
been countenanced under the Stringent
prohibitory statute. To compel respect
for every detail of the law he suggested
that members of the league should con-
slider ii their duty to secure the en-
forcement of its provisions. 1t is his idea
that in towns which vote for no license
there should be absolute prohibition.

UnWarranted Criticism.

In an article in our state news col
umns the facts are given about the
conviction and sentence of G. w Nor
ton of Wallingford, for using the Unit
ed States mails in a scheme to de-
fraud. United States Attorney Mar
tin secured ten indictments against
Norton for ten different offenses. I'm
der the law a respondent can only
be tried upon one indictment at
time. To one of these indictments
Norton plead guilty, and was given by
Judge Wheeler the extreme penalty of
Is months in the house of correction,
which is provided under the United
States statute. The offense charged
against Norton, it must be remem-
bered, was fraudulent use of the Unit
ed States mails. The amount of
goods or money fraudulently secured
by him did not enter into this case.
In his statement of Norton's case to
the court, United States Attorney
Martin made a broad general state
ment of the extent TO which Norton
had conducted his swindling opera
tions. In it's issue of Thursday the

Since the Gazette established the rule
Of publishing no communication of any
kind, except news items, without append
ing the writer's real name there has been
a dropping off of fully rs per cent. in the
number of articles it has been requested
TO please publish" There are lots OF
people who would like TO say things in
print, but who don't want to stand COM
mltted before the public to this opinion

The Phoenix has been saved from one
of the worst annoyances of newspaper
life since it adopted, years ago, the in
flexible rule Sign what you write"
And. incidentally, it has had a good
deal of fun, now and again, in seeing
correspondents loaded with wit, wis
dom, indignation or scarcasm suddenly
subside when confronted with the
choice OF coming out into the open
over their own names or remaining
silent
Vermont phÅ“nix. [volume] (Brattleboro, Vt.) 1834-1955, 1903-02-13

The first rule of administration of
the new license law ought to be: No
licenses shall be granted to men who
have been well.known and persistent
violators of the prohibitory law. To
grant licenses to such men will be an
affront to the better sentiment of any
community, and it will be in effect a
declaration at the outset that the en-
forcement of the new law is to be no
better than that of the prohibitory
law has been.

A bill has been introduced in the
New Hampshire legislature, which is
complement to the law enacted by
the Vermont legislature of 1902. The
New Hampshire bill directs the gov
ernor of that state to appoint civil
engineer, having practical knowledge
of bridge work, to consider. in con-
junction with the bridge commission
authorized by the legislature of Yer
mont at the session of 1902, questions
relating to the freeing of toll bridges
between the two states, with the pro-
vision that the legislature of Vermont
shall, before the 31st day of December.
1904, assume by law one-half of the
cost of the structures of all bridges
connecting the two states. to be
bought or built by agreement between
them. 1t is made the duty of this en-
glneer to hear all petitions on uues-
tions pertaining to the freeing of ex-
listing toll bridges. the reimburse
ment of towns and the location of
new bridges in place of ferries. or
wherever the public good may require
such bridge to be erected. Provis.
ion is also made by which the river
towns in New Hampshire may take
steps to secure the erection of free
bridges.

Fairness and Good Temper Prevail.

1t speaks we'll for the fair-minded
ness and good sense of the people of
Vermont that, as indicated by news
paper expression, there is everywhere
manifested a purpose on the part OF
friends of prohibition to accept in alb
solute good faith the result of last
weeks referendum vote. One of the
best of these expressions is that cop
led elsewhere from the Randolph Her
aid and News, whose editor frankly
says that he yields nothing of his
own opinion or conviction on this sub
ject, but who recognizes that very
many voters were dissatisfied with
prohibition. that the majority rule,
and the thing now to be done is to
give the license law a fair and honest
trial. This is the general temper
shown by the prohibition papers.
1t is further to be noted that the ad-
vocates of license, without exception,
profess a purpose to see the license
law honestly and effectively admins

Martin-and through him, of course,

heavier sentence upon Norton. This
criticism is entirely unwarrant.
ed, and not founded on the
facts, as will be seen from the fore
going statement. Mr. Martin pro-
ceeded entirely within the law in
bringing Norton to trial on one indict-
ment, and the court gave him the
full penalty of Imprisonment under
this indictment. The other indictments
are continued, to be brought up from
term to term hereafter, as justice
may require.

The News places little reliance upon
the stay at home vote as opponents to
the license measure. II all the agita-
ton of the liquor question which has
been going on during the past few weeks
could not bring out the 10000 voters who
were at tine polls in September it is
pretty doubtful how they will vote if
they ever get around to act upon the
subject 4 tNorthheld News.
To The Phoenix the conclusion is
inevitable that of any one thousand
or ten thousand men who did not take
interest enough to come out and vote
in the pleasant, inviting weather of
Tuesday, Feb. 3, the great majority
were at least willing that the local
option license experiment should be
tried. There was never louder (or
longer) call for men of conviction to
vote one way or the other.

during early railroading. Each man
settled his own case. though perhaps
the following account may go to show
that even strikes were not unknown

an increase of pay. So they called on

In hard woods and elaborately furnished.
DR.. Blinn and the Miller woman were

station. Last night they were bailed out
for $1,000 each by Joseph Hand, Junk

The two servants found in the house were
taken to the District Attorneys Office.
They said that they were not graduate
nurses, though they wore nurses uniforms.
They had never seen Dr. Blinn perform
operations, but had attended a great many
women who had been operated upon. They
had little if any evidence of any value against
the physician. They were allowed to go,

Paper. Said 10 He 100 Years
Old. Found In the Moscr Case.

PoTrsv1LLE. Pa, Nov. 22.-The Lehigh
Coal and Navigation Company is prepared
to make strenuous resistance to the claims
of the Moser heirs whose suit against the
company for coal lands to the amount Of
s., 200 900 will come up in court here to-
morrow While hunting among old papers
in the prothonotarys Office a document
lost for 100 years has been discovered which
will have an important bearing on the
case. In this paper Burkhart Moser, from
whom the plaintiffs claim 10 inherit the
property, conveys considerable of the
lands in dispute to other parties.
Attorneys for the Moser heirs deny the
validity of the alleged papers discovered
as they were found by an attorney for the
Leheh company after the prothonotary
and his assistant had made vain search for
them.

COLLEGE GIRLS ATHLETICS.
President Eliot Thinks They Should Not
Row or Try to Put the Shot.

BOSTON, Nov. 22.-President Eliot OF
Harvard does not believe that women can
indulge much in athletics without inJuring
themselves. and condemns boating, putting
the shot and such violent forms OF exertion
for women.
Women will never compete with mems
colleges in athletics he said yesterday.
Il see absolutely no possibility OF that ever
taking place. The women DO not seek
competition. and it would be Of no benefit
TO them. Women wer not originally in
tended for such violent exercise as man,
and some of the things that they 60 into
must strain them. For women TO put the
shot is preposterous.
There may be women living who are
made in such a strange and unnatural way
that 1t is not injurious for them to put the
shot, but or the majority OF women It
would be enough to hurt them for Ii 9.
Boating also Is bad for women. Women's
colleges do not have crews to any great
extent, but the women who do 60 into 1t will
not last long in their atheltic life. Women's 8
athletics are a good thing in moderation,
but for them to try to do all that their
brothers do is a mistake. They will only
hurt themselves in the attempt
