are in condition to appear in court.
Some time ago the police force of Barre
was informed that it must not arrest
persons for intoxications unless warrants
had first been procured against them.
Now, this was manifestly ridiculous
state of affairs. 1t was required that
policemen on seeing persons apparently
intoxicated should rush to the nearest
grand juror and have warrant sworn
out against "John Doe" or Fred Roe"
or some other fictitious parsonage, then
rush back and serve the warrant-if the
object of their search was to be seen.
More often the individual had been
spirited away by friends and another
misdemeanor went UNPUBLISHED. The
proposed law will settle the question and
the bill should 90 through.

There is high school principal in
Maine who dares to take stand against
the fripperies and banalities of the ortho-
dox graduation week. Declaring that
the fuss and futter of graduation, or
commencement, as the high schools like
to call it, is worse than useless, he sub
stitutes nothing less than a trip to some
point of historic interest. For three
years he has taken his graduating class
on ten days trip to Boston, at total
expense of fifteen dollars each. This he
has proved to the parents satisfaction,
is no more expensive than the gradua-
ton exercises would have been, if they
had been of the regular white dress,
flowers, spread and hop type, which is
SO common. But what an enrichment
to the mind of the pupil the one in
wolves in comparison to the other The
educational and cultural influence of the
trip especially on boys and girls who
have never been out of their native
state, cannot be estimated.-N. Y. Tri-
bune.
The principal of the Randolph High
School, Prof Prichard, now of the Bran
don High School, took his class to Wash
ington last spring and both pupils and
parents were enthusiastic over the sue
cess of the experiment, for it was a
success in every way. Other schools in
this State are already planning similar
trips in the place of the foolishness and
useless waste of money in the usual COM
mencement week. May the idea grow
and spread. Give the graduates some
thing practical, useful and instructive
something that will be of benefit to them
through life.

on matters of public policy, have a talk

The Rutland News agrees with this
paper on the question of abolshing the
the board of railroad commissioners. 1t
says: "We are not at all in favor of
abolishing the railroad commission in
Vermont. On the contrary, we are
heartily in favor of retaining that COM
mission and giving it enlarged powers.
In many states the commission is most
important and valuable board and the
interests of the public are in many ways
carefully safeguarded by it. The great
est trouble with the Vermont commits
sion up to date has been that it has not
had enough power"

A Lesson for Young Americans.

In notable tribute to the life and
work of the great Massachusetts sena-
tor, the late George f. Hoar, the Out
look draws this lesson for those who
have political aspirations:
"If you wish to succeed in politics,
you must dare to fail, Select the party
you will work with, then work with it
as best you can. Let not its departures
from your understanding of the truth
shake your allegiance to it. But never
join in such departures, and never by
your silence acquiesce in them. Be true
to your party but never be false to your
self. Never purchase success by false
speech or compromising silence. Dare
to be political hereto; but do not ex-
communicate yourself because you are a
hereto. Friend and foe united to honor
Senator u a. IT, nay not so unite
TO honor y o., You may 'ck his genius
the times may be unp opitious. But if
you do not win the plaudits OF aur tel'
low-men, you will not deserve theil
misses; and if you are not elected tc
office by their suffrages, you will be pro
claimed a man by you own conscience
