MANY PAID THE LAST
TRIBUTE TOT. T. CHAPEAU.

The funeral of the late Thomas T.
Chepeau took place from the Sacred
Heart Church at o'clock yesterday
afternoon. The church was filled to
its capacity with men and women who
knew and had held the deceased in the
highest regard. The sorrow in his
sudden taking-off was clearly evidenced
in the 'assemblage and the brief eulogy,
delivered by Rev Father Aloysius.
found response in the hearts of all who
listened. Father Aloysius spoke of Mr..
Chapeau as he knew him, and referred
touchingly to those traits of character
that had rendered him so dear to fam
lily and friends.
Mr.. Chapeau was a member Of the
Confederate Veterans Association and
this organization attended the funeral
in a body. The delegation from
Washington Artillery Camp, u. c. v,
from Charleston. was near the vasket,
and the battle flag of the lost cause
was among the equite flowers that
covered the bier.
From the church, after the service.
many went TO the Cathedral Cemetery
and witnessed the last sad rites at the
grave.

lake through the discharge into the same
of various poisonous chemicals. AS Mr.
Hatch shows in a letter to the Essex
County Republican on the authority of
the Vermont State laboratory traces of
the chemicals are to be found in different
quarters, and inasmuch as the deposits
are not soluble 1t Is only question of
time when the nuisance will make its
influence felt on this side of the lake.
Mr.. Hatcn. who owns the Four Brothcra
and who has realty interests of import
ance at Willsboro Point, says the stones
on the shores are covered with white
slime, and considerable quantities OF dead
fish are making their appearance. the
chemicals having a powerful effect at
considerable distance from the shore.
It seems that the New York Legislature
was mportuned to take action to compel
the pulp mills to step putting waste chem
cals into the waters of the streams. but
after making a show of caring for these
matters on land ii is stated that the mills
are again allowing such chemicals to
escape into the waters of streams flowing
into Lake Champain,
The people of Burlington have enough
to contend with already without being
forced to face the possibility of poisonous
chemicals from the opposite shore of
Lake Champlain being drawn into the
supply pipe of our water system which
extends beyond Anplotrcc Point 1t is
difficult to sec why the pulp mills can not
dispose of this waste on land without
serious loss or marked Inconvenience, and
it is to be hoped that the matter will be
oeitatcd on both sides of Lake Champlain
our fishing interests and the public health
is abatcd.

Weekly Payment Law Unconstitu-
tIOnal.

In view of the Intellectual struggle made
in the last Legislature as well as pre-
vious sessions of our lawmakers to So
cure the passage of a law compelling cor
porations to make payments to their ON
ployes the decision Just announced by
The Supreme Court of Indiana will have
particular interest for the people of Yer
mont. Several months ago the state of
Indiana instituted proceedings against the
Republic Iron and Steel company to COM
pei the corporation to pay its employees
weekly in accordance with a statute en-
acted in 1899. The company in question
had been paying its employees every two
weeks. but the factory inspector. prob
ably upon the complaint of some en-
ton in question to comply explicitly with
the law.
The Supreme Court holds that the law
providing for weekly payments in the
state of Indiana is in conflict with the
fourteenth amendment to tho national con-
stitution as well as with the bill of rights.
In considering this aspect of the case the
court said that when the State places the
wagc-edrncrs under quasi guardianship,
it classes them with minors ana other
persons under legal disability. BY max
ms their contracts void at the pleasure
of a public officer it tends to degrade
them as citizens by impeaching their
ability to take care of themselves. II is
paternalism pure and simple, in violent
contrast with the liberty ami equality
theory of our Institutions
This seems to be sound sense as we'll as
good law, and in full accord with the
spirit, if not the letter of the constitu.
tor. If the Vermont Legislature bad
passed the weekly payment bill intro-
duced at the last session. We would mani
testify have found our statute in conflict
with the national, constitution and the
bill of rights. just as have our friends of
the IIoosior State. Under these cir
cumstances it will probably be long
time before the Vermont Legislature
comes dangerously near passing another
weekly payment bill At the same time
at present, that most corporations outsi L.
of railroads and other corporations whose
employees are largely scattered, involving
considerable expense of distribution will
make weekly payments to their wage
earners.

Vermont's Political CauldrOn.

The announcement that the health of
the Hon. IT, c. Ide would not permit him
to participate in contest for the govern
orship of Vermont has set people to talk
ing about other mon available and in adj
dition to the Hon. g. ]. Bell of Walden,

tin of Brattcboro the Hon. {. :. Emery
of Chelsea. and the Hon. Alexander Dun
nett of st. Johnsbury, the names of Gen.
W. IL. Gilmore of Fairlcc. Lieutenant
Governor Il. s Stanton of Roxbury and
the Hon. W. L. Johnson Of Woodstock
arc being discussed. 1T is somewhat early
as yet to discuss gubcrnatorial politics
seriously. although we arc reminded that
at this time in 1901 we were in the midst
governorship contest.
II is suggested 10y ono contemporary
that the incipient talk about abolishing
the mountain line is a move in favor of
Clement. and it intmatcs that the follow
ing of that gentleman may be able to
produce a candidate on the cast side and
thus allow the mountain line to continue
to hold its magic sway. lnere arc tnOSe
who think the project of the nomination
of some candidate on the west side of
the mountain line for the mere purpose
OF breaking a precedent, would not make
much Roadway. If. however, there Is in
dication Of desire on the part Of the
people to abolish this rule, the west side
will probably he found to contain more
than one available candidate to seek to
profit by the change.
There is every prospect that Vermont
will continue in tho coming year to have
lively politics as in the past. In addi-
ton to governor and a complete list of
State officers. we will he called upon to
elect a LEGISLATURE. tho members of which
will in turn elect United States senator;
the respective distrhts will elect con-
gressmcn. and last but not least will he
the selection of delegates to the two state
conventions ono of which will choose
delegates to the republican national con-
vention. In view of the prolonged strug
giles of the past year, however. our pco-
pie will probably seek to put off all COM
ing political contests as long as possible,
and the carly bird may be wise to govern
itself accordingly.
