Plain Words by Mayor Temple.

Those few state newspapers who have
been devoting much of their energy to
apologizing for and defending the license
policy, and have been attempting to cast
reflections upon The News for its plain
statements of the manifold failures of
the policy, will find food for reflection
in the official communication of Mayor
David w. Temple of Rutland to the
board of aldermen, vetoing the resolution
cutting down the police force of Rutland
from six officers to four. Four officers
formerly were sufficient to look after

1t is refreshing to note that one big
corporation that violated its charter
rights is in serious trouble. The Mer
chants Bridge across the Mississippi
river at St. Louis was built under a
charter which provided that it should
be forfeited to the Government if it ever
came under the same control with any
other bridge, whether by consolidation,
pooling or the election of any of the
same men as officers. The intention was
to maintain it always as an independent
enterprise, and so determined were the
trainers of the charter to prevent mon
opoly that they authorized the Secretary
of War to take possession of the property
in case any combination should be dis
covered. 1t appears now that the Mer
chants Bridge is controlled by the
Terminal Association, which owns the
old Eads Bridge, and competition has
ceased to exist. Secretary of War Root
has given the Merchants Bridge Com
pany thirty days to show cause why its
charter should not be forfeited and its
property surrendered to the Govern
ment.

The Rutland police can keep a secret,
or are very smart, perhaps both. They
gave out August 6. that James Murray
who was supposed to have been killed by
being struck by the cars June 18th, was

they produced slip of paper found in
the grass within mile of the spot saying
