Assistant Attorney-General Dismissed

Assistant Attorney-General Dismissed.
A most sensational development of
the investigation of postoffice depart
ment affairs occurred just before the
department closed Thursday when
Postmaster General Payne announced
the summary dismissal of James N.
Tyner assistant attorney general for
the postoffice department, coupling
with the announcement the startling
charge that all the papers and records
in the safe of the latter's Office had
been distracted by Mrs. Tyner, wife
of the discharged officer, with the as
sistance of others. Charles 81. Robb
assistant attorney for the department
of justice, has been appointed assist
ant attorney general for the postoffice
department to fill temporarily the
place vacated by Mr.. Tyner. Mr..
Robb is from Vermont.

HOW THE LICENSE LAW HAS WORKED
IN MONTPELIER UP TO DATE.

The Journal is not disposed to I'M
duly criticize the workings of the new
license law at so early date, but be-
lleving that its readers, whether they
favor the license system or are OPP
posed to ii, want to know how it
affects Montpelier, it is proposed to
freely discuss the matter in 4 general
way from time to time. 1t has been
stated that the largely increased num-
Der Of arrests since license went into
effect is duo to a changed policy on
the part of the police department and
not to an increase in drunkenness.
This apology must provoke a smile
from even the most ardent license
advocate who has had his eyes open
for the past ten days. This is not in
tended as a criticism Of the police de-
partment for il ever officers did their
duty the Montpelier policemen GER
tainly have during the time stated and

embassy to Berlin. DIR. White, who is
a gradu ate of the famous Yale class of
'53 has filled many diplomatic posi-
tions, beginning with an attacheship
of the United States legation in st.
Petersburg when he was a very young
man. He was special commissioner
to San Domingo in 1871, commissioner
to the Paris Exposition of 1878, minis
ter to Germany 1S79-s1 (his first mis-
sion to Germany, minister to Russia
1924, member of the Venezuelan
Commission of 1867, member of the
Peace Commission at The Hague, and
ambassador to Germany (his second
mission) from 1897 until his recent
resignation and retirement. The
recollections of such life are sure to
be of very great interest. The papers
will begin to appear in an early num-
Der Of The Century.

Goebel Murder Trial Revived.

In the trial of James Howard for
completely in the murder of Gov.
Goebel of Kentucky, Youtsey, who is
under life sentence for his part in the
crime, has testified that Gov. Taylor,
as well as Secretary of State Powers,
was knowing to the deed in advance
of it's com mission.
Russian Demands i'm China.
Russia has demanded that China
sign an agreement practically cedingto
her sovereignty of MaDchuria and ex-
Guiding other nations from that coun-
try. The Russian charge d'affaires,
NJ. Plancon, has informed Prince
Ching, president of the foreign Office,
that no further steps in the evacua-
ton of Manchuria will be taken until
this agreement is signed.
Germ of Smallpox Discovered.
1t is announced that DIR. William
Thomas Councilman, the Shattuck
professor of pathological anatomy in
Harvard medical school, has discov-
cred the germ that causes smallpox.
The disco very is pronounced by ply
sicians who have been made aware of
Doctor Conncilman's achievements as
one of the really great ones in medical
history and the most important made
in Boston, rivaling the discovery of
ether as al anesthetic.
S1,25O,OOO Fire.
The plant of the international Salt
company, located at South Chicago,
with three boats lying in the Calumet
river, we're destroyed by fire Tuesday
night. The loss is estimated at
81 ,25O, 900, that of the International
Salt company being placed at $500, 900.
The buildings of the salt company
plant covered nearly sixteen acres.
In these buildings were stored nearly
4OO, 900 tons of salt, and the greater
part of this is said to have been ruined
by fire and water.

In another column we give an
article from the Montpelier Journal
showing the working of the license
law in that city. The writer was in
Montpelier recently and found that
some of the leading citizens who
favored license throughout the cam
paign would now like another chance
to express themselves on the question.
IL is claimed that the new law is being
broken in the license towns much
more freely than 1t will later. This is
undoubtedly true but there must be a
remarkable decrease before the con-
dition may be said to compare favor
ably with prohibition. In the no
license towns the law is being broken
much more flagrantly than was the
prohibitory law. The license advo-
Gates maintain that as the people can
have just what they want in every
town they should enforce whichever
measure they accept. This theory
was advanced during the campaign
and seemed very plausible but when
1t comes to actual practice does not
work inst as was expected. The peo-
pie should enforce the law but they
do not. They should have enforced
the prohibitory law but they did not.
The law is not TO blame in either case.
1t is the people. Some of those who
supported the license law under the
belief that anything would be better
than prohibition will soon be asking
themselves IL poorly enforced license
law will not work greater harm to our
state than a prohibitory law.

IL is to be noted that the man who
issued warrants for the arrest of a
dozen and a half or so offenders in
connection with the opening of
Middlebury's liquor places has not
yet been hung in efiigy as was one
man who sent out story of the affair.
Such Partially will bear explanation.
II there was good ground for warrants
for eighteen offenders, there must
have been ground for the RttLdnd
Herald and MiddIebury Register uniting
editoriaIly in pronouncing the affair a
disgrace.-Free Press.

IL Makes "A Difference.

In Randolph the otner day a man
who got drunk and was fined Volunta-
rily disclosed on another man who
was convicted and, under the new
law, sentenced to ayear's imprison-
ment in the house of correction. In
Middlebury few days before, 20 or 80
men got drunk, disturbed the peace
and were properly fined. The men
who sold them the liquor did so under
the same law, but no penalty is
meted out to them. Why? Because
they had license, while the Randolph
seller did not. But, actually is there
any material difference between the
offence in Randolph and the same Of
fence in MIddlebury? If drunk. caus-
ing is a serious crime in Randolph,
does it become a mere incident un-
worthy of attention in MIddlebury
simply because majority of the
voters in Middlebury voted yes last
month while a majority in Randolph
voted no? According to the local OPP
ton theory, of course it does, but
what would you say of any other law
that visited a years Imprisonment on
a man in one part of the state and
sanctioned the same offence in an
other part of the state, whatever the
diverse local sentiments, in return for
the payment of a fee?-Rdndolph
