Writing of the Russian navy in the
North American Review, Archibald
S. Hurd refers to the fact that that
country has found it necessary to go
into agricultural districts to find men
to man the ships. Says the writer
Thanks to the conscriptive system,
Russia has no difficulty in finding
men, but the demands of late years
have outrun the supply in her mari
time provinces. In ten years her per-
sonnet, now standing at $4,000, has
been nearly doubled. She has been
compelled TO go inland, with the re-
suit that today her fleet is manned to
some extent by agricultural laborers
and other landsmen with no liking
for or familiarity with the sea. 1t
remains to be seen how these men
develop during their five to seven
years. training, but of their comrades
from the maritime districts it is suffi-
cient to say that Napoleon thought
highly of the qualities of Russian
sailors drawn from the seacoast. !"
Russia's seacoast is comparatively
small and could hardly be expected
to continually furnish sufficient
number of men for great and grow
ing navy, but if the United States
experience is repeated the inlanders
will not prove failures as sailors, for
Dewey, Clark, and scores Of others
who have helped make the proud
naval history of this country were
born to the hills and plains rather
than the sea.

MAY BUY GROUND.

Fort Ethan Allen, Aug. 11.-There
is persistent rumor that this is the
last encampmeht of the LIST Regiment,
V. N. q. on the present camp grounds.
1t is stated that the extension of Fort
Ethan Allen to the dignity of a full
regimental post will necessitate the
purchase of additional territory sur
rounding the fort, by the government.
The State ground joins the government
reservation and is in the natural path
of expansion. No official announce
ment has yet been made of the con-
templated change but the State and
government officials do not deny that
there is a good deal more than rumor
to the story. One plan suggested is
that the government desires the
grounds to use as drill field as the
present one is not large enuogh. An
other scheme is to occupy the State
grounds jointly with the regulars for
purposes of drilling. This would be
out of the question. however, as the
infantry could not occupy the same
field because of the uneven surface left
by the horses.
Adjutant General Gilmore is nom
committal on the subject, but admitted
that plans were already underway for
the enlargement of the post In case
the camp ground is sold it is probable
that the next State muster will be held
at Fairlee and as that point has been
great faverite with members OF the
regiment since muster was held there
few years ago it is predicted that in
case the present ground is sold the
camp may be permanently established
on the shores of Lake Morey.
The present ground was purchased
about seven years ago and together
with improvements has cost in the vi
entity of 81, The First Regiment
was mobolized. here for the Spanish
American war and muster has been
held here annually since 1890. 1t is
now considered almost model rem

LICENSE IN BARRE.

There has been more or less news
paper talk of late concerning the oper-
ations of the license law in Barre and
because of it there doubtless exists in
distant parts of the State the feeling
that little attention is being paid to
the enforcement of the law in the
Granite City. The Times, which is
counted the official organ of the
license commissioners, inasmuch as its
editor is a member of the board, COM
ments on these rumors as follows:
The workings Of the license law
in the city of Barre have recently
been held up before the State as en-
tirely unsatisfactory and certain ugly
rumors' are slyly spoken. of by wise
individuals. What the basis is for
these conclusions and for those ugly
rumors is entirely unknown by the
officials under whom the license law
is conducted in Barre. Whether
those things exist in fact or whether
they are merely the workings of an
overweight imagination, actuated
by other motives than desire to see
the enforcement of the law, is diff
cult to conceive. But, without desir-
ing in any way to cover up any mis-
takes of the license law or it's work
ings in this city, the Times can say
that so far as the officials know, there
is not as much liquor sold illegally
as legally. In fact the officials know
of no illegal selling. At the last
police hearing the police officers
stated that SO far as their observations
went they knew of no case where the
law is violated in this respect, an6
If they did know Of one instance II
would be reported at once. The Ii
cense commissioners say the same.
Now if there are violations O.
the liquor law in the city of Barre i
! is the duty OF such citizens as know
to impart their knowledge to tn
: officials. BY keeping back sucl
: knowledge, if they have any, the,

a the non enforcement of the law. 4
grave responsibility rests on them.
