Mr.. EDITOR:
I would add just a word to the many
, things being said regarding license at this
time. The high license and local option
law which was passed at the last legislature
is, believe, uncalled for, and nothing the
people want or should have. 1 believe il
it had not been for the scare the repu bill
can party had at the convention at Mont
. pelier last juno this law would never have
come before the people, as many of the
!. representatives were pledged to support
= a license measure, although not in accord
ance with their wishes. II the people vote
"Yes'' on Feb. 8, it means more crimes,
: more inmates for jails and prisons, and
more graV yes. 1t also means less food, less
comfort for home, and less money for
church work; all of which will be foun
1T among a certain class of people, to the
G lowering of the standard in Vermont. II
is any one Will convince me that an open sa-
J.. loon is benefit to the people of Vermont
of I will agree to draw the state house to
lie Burlington on hand-sled. Think I can
ID do it when I am so convinced. hope the
people of Vermont will turn out and vote
