There is an epidemic of mob rule
just now which extends all over the
world taking effect in the United
States as lynching, in Macedonia as
revolution. in Russia as massacre.
The only way 1t can be successfully
combated is by strong public senti-
ment against it, Whether the MUIR
der of Jews in Kishenev, of Turks in
Krushevo, of negroes in Indiana, citi-
zens who desire for all men life. lib
erty and the pursuit of happiness must
stand squarely against lawlessness of
any kind, Meanwhile the Russian
government, the Turkish government
and the government of the United
States must promptly and strenu-
ously adopt methods which will tend
to relieve us of the conditions which
are responsible for such crimes. The
majority OF men and women are not
in favor of mob rule. but the unanim-
Gus verdict of the people is for speedy
trial and punishment of criminals by
the proper courts. We can easily
spare the tedious machinery of legal

Glad You Like II.

The day after Memorial day the
Messenger had the satisfaction of
printing the statement of two veteran
railroad passenger conductors that
they had observed a great decrease in
the number of drunken men on board
their trains that day. the first public
holiday since the new liquor law went
into effect, as compared with previous
holidays. Another conductor of long
experience the other day added his
testimony in confirmation and that,
too. without solicitation OF his own
accord he told representative of this
paper that, whatever might be said the
merits of the new law one way or an
other, it certainly was fact that the
conductors did not have to deal with
so many drunken men on the trains as
they used to under prohibition.-St.
Adams Messenger
This seems to indicate that men get
drunk at home now. How lovely!

Vermont Good Enough for Him.
Barre Times

c. A. Prouty, the well-known New
port lawyer, considers that the chances
for young men. and particularly for
young lawyers is as good as, and prob
ably better than those offered in the
west or in the large cities. In the
course of his address to the Vermont
Bar association at Newport recently
Mr. Prouty laid particular emphasis
on the chances in Vermont and his
conclusions, as expressed in the fol-
lowing, are of interest: In the last
six years my duties have taken me in
to every state and territory in the I'M
ion. and l have gone in a way which
has familiarized me to a great extent
with commercial and social conditions.
Meeting hundreds of lawyers from
all parts of the country l have newt
ably contrasted their condition with
ours; have almost of necessity in
CURED whether 1 ought not myself to
have begun otherwise or elsewhere.
As a result of this observation and re-
Election there has grown up within me
an abiding conviction that were 1
obliged to do it over again and could
exercise a conscious volition I would
be born beside the placid waters of
this beautiful lake, / would study law
and / would practice my profession
in Vermont"

The Etiquette Of Canoeing.

The Charles river has long been
famous for the lovely canoe rides
that dear girls have had with Charley
and Dick and Willie and we of the
country have never suspected that
anything ever occurred on these rides
but what the most decorous old maid
might approve. Yet recently the po-
lice of the Metropolitan park commits
sion have received orders that all
"spooning" must be done according to
certain rules evidently formulated by
a disciple of the late Ruth Ashmore of
the Ladies' Home Journal Loving
in the abstract is not forbidden but its
concrete expression is very much linn
tied by the new rules. The swain may
hand" but when he wants to clasp
her slender waist" or kiss her ruby
lips" the cop interferes and protects
the nut brown maiden
Now we had always supposed that
canoeing was a very deliciously dam
gerous form of pleasure; that ones
hair must be parted in the middle to
keep the boat trim and that the man
with the paddle must always keep the
seat at the end. 1t appears however
that canoeing is dangerously delicious
and no lady ought to accept an escort
hereafter unless he is regularly Ii
censed by the Metropolitan park COM
mission as an anti-hugger.
Let the good work go on. If all the
DRINKS and all the ''spooners" in
Boston are arrested there will be more
room on the streets for us who like to
look up at the tall buildings.

srsttIeboro's Practical Solution.

While other towns about the state
historical sites, Brattleboro has
stepped forth boldly with n practical
solution of the problem that ought to
make the old Green Mountain Boys
turn over in their graves with horror.
The old camp ground,-the place
where Gov. Holbrook mustered his
men in quick response to Lincoln's
call for troops in the Civil war; where
men were mustered from all about,
all through the war; where nation
al hospital stood from which martyrs
to the cause We're buried in the nation
al cemetery on Prospect Hill; where,
finally, the troops We're mustered out
and which the patriotic societies of the
town We're trying to buy and mark for
preservation as Il park-this ground,
the most widely famous in national
sense, perhaps in the whole state, was
sold last week to a spectacular land
company 1t has been divided into
building lots, streets have been laid
out and it is being sold this week at
public auction to the accompaniment
of kiss yourself goodby" and other
popular airs by the band and the wide
ly advertised distribution of pianos
and other valuable gifts.

Wants a "WhoIe State" Man,

The Brattleboro Reformer condenses
a whole barrelful of political philos-
ophy and common sense (Which should
be synonymous, but are not) when it
asks, rs the next governor to be
measured by the mountain ruler"
There you have it concisely. The state
of Vermont, all told numbering less
people than several different cities OF
the country, voluntarily and needless
ly reduces its measure of the govern
orship to the size of the man who may
be prominent in only half little COM
monwealth. What is the result of 1t

from the whole people so that by "a
nimble process of elimination the pol
iticians can make their own governor

Soldiers and Gentlemen.

Many a man will do in crowd wha
he would be ashamed to do alone
many a man will do away from home
what he would never do where he IL
known: many man will do on va
cation what he would little think OF
doing when at work. These are trite
statements of acknowledged truth
When the boys of the first regiment OF
the Vermont National Guard were In
camp at Fort Ethan Allen recently
they were surrounded by conditions
which made it easy to be ungentle-
manly; easy to say and do what they
might afterwards be ashamed Of.
They were away from home, In
crowd. and on sort of vacation.
Yet we are 10th to believe that the
Burlington Clipper is fully acquainted

a mans life to ride in a car from Bur-
lington after 9 o'clock, say nothing
about a woman
one drunken man in car full of
happy lucky soldiers will charac-
terize the whole bunch as hoodlums.
We have no doubt that there were
some of the boys who imbibed little
too much, and perhaps some who are
none too wel-bred when they are
tional Guard whom we have been for
tunate enough to meet have not been
of that kind, and we do not believe
the majority of the first regiment to
be of that kind.
We have no desire to condone or
justify ungentlemanly conduct wheth-
er 1t occurs under conditions ike tNOSe
of a camp or not; we not only believe
that soldiers can be gentlemen but al
so and as firmly that the larger num-
Der of them are gentlemen. They will |
take the criticism of the Clipper to |
heart and will endeavor to keep the |
minority in line in the future. |
If it were true that "a man is known
by the company he keeps" wholesale |
of the bunch" might
be wise, but that old adage is most
false and pernicious. The Montpelier
Journal says of the camp:
There are altogether too many
people in the state who have mis-
taken idea of the annual muster and
such sweeping COMBINATIONS only
serve to intensity the misunderstand-
ing, so the Journal wishes that he of
the two eyes had visited the camp and
seen 500 or so boys who must have
been there, before making such a

The boom for Judge Alton B. Park

candidate for president seems to
have been frost bitten by be-
ing planted too early The judge,
himself. has lately taken a
stand that practically eliminates him
from the race as a candidate. Still,
he has some warm admirers and
friends among the democrats who
visit the national capital and who
claim for him that he is the most
available man to lead the democratic
forces next year. They have not
much to say of him concerning his
record. as that is confined almost SOLE
ly to the judicial bench, but they say
that he is a most amiable and learned
man. Those who prefer some other
candidate, in discussing Judge Park
er, say that he is tied UP with David
B. Hill, and would be controlled by
him and they distrust Hill. Judge
Parker's name may go before the con-

as the candidate of that state. Ev-
