The Question.

The Rutland Herald says the real
question before the people is;
Shall the state authorize each town
to rOte whether or not it will license the
sale of Intoxicating liquors?
Yet the Herald and every advocate of
the License Act knows that all it amounts
to is allowing each town to rote.
Section 81 takes away from over 80
per cent. of the voters of each town the
right to absolutely prohibit the issuing
of licenses for the sale of Intoxicating
liquor, and places that power in the
hands of per cent. of the voters.
The Herald and all its friends know
that there are at least per cent. of the
voters who want liquor sold in every
town and who would sign petition to
have the selectmen issue license for its
sale.
The selectmen must issue license If it
is asked for by per cent. of the voters,
and a majority of the practcing physi-
clans who get from 80 cents to 81 for
writing an order. They have no option
in the matter. The Act says shall, not
may, issue licenses.
The Herald knows that this will prac-
tically establish one of those 'rOtten
town agencies" it has had so much to
print about, in nearly every town in the
state.
1t cannot defend this section of the act
without taking back all it has said
against town agencies and all it has
said in favor of local option, and there
fore it does not attempt to defend it.
The Herald knows that the people
haye no control over this kind of al
agency, and cannot abolish it no matter
how much they may wish to do so; not
even if 81 per cent. should vote to abol-
ish it.
knowing all these things the Herald
has the nerve to say the real question is
shall each town have the right to rote on
this question.
1t does not dare to say The act gives
each town the right to say absolutely
that no liquor shall be legally sold
therein.
The voters are catching on fast to
the real meaning of this Act and will
vote 1t down the third day of February
by an emphatic majority.

Keep Vermont Pure.

The following letter shows how one of
the large class of summer visitors re-
CARDS the great Issue now before the
people. 1t is not true that open bars in
hotels, and open saloons will attract the
summer visitors to Vermont, not the
kind we want.
My dear Mr.. Battell AS you were
kind enough to have the Register sent
me, cannot resist writing TO thank you
and to say how much we are interested
in Vermont's struggle to keep her proud
position among the states, for it is Il
proud position to stand before the coun-
try for law and order and pure living.
Those of us who spend our summers
among her beautiful mountains love her
almost as much as do her own sons and
daughters.

says Governor Stewart, and we all think
he knows. With the sincere hope for
the success of the cause, am,

Do not vote for bad bill. The Ii
cense Act is a bad bill, because 1t places
the penalty for selling liquor without a
license so high that few .iuries would
vote to convict Those who have
watched the operation of the existing
law, know that the smaller penalties
prescribed in the earlier stages of its
existence, secured more convictions and
these often repeated, were more effective
than the highest penalties of later
periods. The same is true of penalties
for physicians who make mistake in
giving prescriptions. Think of jury
voting to fine a family physician 5000 to
$500 because of an error IN judgement, or
because he was deceived by plausible
story.

The Morrisville Messenger, though
non-prohibition, is taking very active
part in the license bill discussion be-
cause 1t cannot see in that measure a
solution Of the liquor problem in Yer
mont. 1t says
"The Messenger Is not in favor of the
enacted license law, but it has Just as
little use for ultra prohibition as it has
for the open saloon. 1t has not even
liberation for either. In the face of the
Clement scare the Republican party,

not, it was promise, and the Messenger
Joined in urging the wisdom of its full
filment. 1t was fulfilled In the license
law yet to be popularity approved or dis
approved. The Messenger believes it
should be disapprOyed chiefly because
license as enacted no more distinguishes
betN cen the use and abuse of intoxi-
cants than does ultra prohibition. A
change that would NOT improve in the
most important of all particulars should
not be made. The devotee of license
sees nothing but use in liquors, the de-
votee of prohibition sees nothing but
abuse in liquors. There is a middle

ground, and the Messenger believes that
after sober thought, Vermont will find
it. 1t may be dspensary act of some
sort, it may be form of license or 1t
may be renovated prohibition. In
any event it can be neither extreme. 70
follow one extreme with another would
complicate the case even worse than it is
now. So, the Messenger believes that
an affirming of the license law enacted
would retard the righteous solution of
the question, and therefore hopes for a
negative vote on February 81
