VILLAGE
CHARTER
Proposals to Amend It at
Montpelier.
THE CHANGES IN VIEW
Longer Terms for Trustees and
the St. Commissioners
TO Be Appointed.
THE CHANGES IN VIEW

Representative Collins NJ. Graves
left this morning to return to Mont
pelier, taking with him two bills Of To-
cal interest which he will introduce
this afternoon or tomorrow
One of these bills is TO amend the
village charter. The new provisions
include electing the village trustees for
three years, two the first year, two the
second and three the third. This will
insure majority of the board holding
over each year so that there will al
ways be members OF experience on the
board.
Another amendment provides that
the street commissioner shall be ap-
pointed annually by the trustees in
stead of elected at the village meeting.
The other bill is the one that has al
ready been referred to in the Banner,
providing for the appointment of a
commission to locate new court
house for Bennington county.
The bill provides that the commits
sion shall consist of three members to
be appointed by the governor, none of
them to be residents of Bennington
county. This commission is empower
ed to visit the county and give hear
ings and say where the county build
ings shall be located.
The buildings at Manchester and
here are in such shape that they are
disgrace to the county and the move
ment for new buildings is none too
soon,

Being Built by James c.
Colgate.
SIX MILES IN LENGTH
will Have an Easy Grade the
Entire Length-AIso a
New Observatory.

James C. Colgate is building road
from his house to the summit of Mt.
Anthony which rises $500 feet above.
the level of the sea. Considerable.
progress has already been made.
The distance from the house to the
top is only half mile as the crow
flies, but the new road will be laid out
in series of reverse curves which will
make the distance over five miles, but
so easy will be the grade that horse
can trot 1t the entire length. The road
will be IL feet wide and macadamized.
A gang of so Italians Is now at work.
The dirt on top of the rock on the line
surveyed has been mostly taken off,
trees have been removed and every.
thing is being put in shape so that the
work of blasting can be carried on
during the winter.
From the summit of the mountain,
one gets far stretching view of the
surrounding country in every direct
ion.
On this summit Mr. Colgate will erect
an observ atory. 1t will be built of
iron and stone so that it will be able
to withstand the winds that frequently
sweep over the mountain.
This will be the fourth observatory
to be erected on the mountain. All
were erected by the same man, the late
George w. Robinson; all were of wood
and all were blown down. The first
one was started in 1864 and completed
in 1866, its cost being $500. but in
1870 1t was blown down. The erection
of another and better one costing
$4,000 was Immediately commenced, but
in November, 1871 violent gale lew
eled it to the ground. 1t was tall
tower, the pinnacle being timed so
that it glistened in the sun, the whole
being surmounted by flag staff.
Nothing daunted however by these
nishaps, Mr. Robinson completed an
other which was ready for visitors in,
The summer of 1874. 1t withstood the
storms and gales until May, 1882, it
net the fate of the others and was
blown down. No other attempt has
aver been made to put an observatory
On the top of the mountain. To what
,xtent Mr. Colgate will allow this one
% be visited by the public is not to be-
Known until after it is completed.

He Did He Would Stop Breeding and Try Flying Which
WEEK AT MONTPELIER
Mrs Rogers, Fate Likely To Be Settled or
Sealed.

Montpelier, Oct 81, This will be a
busy week IN the law-makipg mills.
Several important questions Will
doubtless be decided.
The committee having the automo-
bile bills under discussion expected to
report back to the House last week and
that question should be brought up
within few days. The delay in the
report would indicate that it is q diff
cult proposition although, it is quite
generally expected that the DR. Camp
bell measure with some amendments
will be favored.
Tomorrow evening occurs the pub
lie hearing on the Subject of capital
punishment and the communication of
Mary NJ. Rogers. Many think that her
case will not be brought up at all but
will come under the law which is on
the statute books at the close of the
session. Also it is the general opin-
ion that capital punishment will be
abolished. The fact that seven men
have had their sentence committed is
a strong argument for Mary Rogers.
This and the fact that she is woman
would prevent many from casting
their vote to hang her II the question
is brought to that point.
In the Senate the bill appropriating
$50, 600 for the Morrill, Agricultural
Hall has been referred and will pro-
badly pass after some debate.
Wednesday evening another meet
ing to discuss the weekly payment
bill will be held. Both the advocates
and those opposed to the measure
will put up a good fight. At the last
session it passed the House but was
killed in the Senate.
The joint committee on temperance |
has had copies of the Supreme Court |
decisions to study over adjournment |
and have returned ready to take up |
the subject Immediately. Had the |
entire law beer declared urconstitu-
tional the law makers would have been !
obliged to return after Thanksgiving.
AS it is they will probably go home
to eat turkey with their work complet-
ed.
The subject of caucus legislation is
now in the hands of a subcommittee.

MRS MARY ROGERS.
This Is Not Case In Which Sentiment Should
Hold Sway.

Perhaps we cannot satisfactorily ex-
plain why we feel that no woman should
| be put to death, but all that is best
within one rises inprotest against such
"a legal killing. Even unhofy warfare
| recognizes the immunity of women and
children from the consequences of
seize or sack. A II the best sentiments
of man hang on his protection of wom-
an. Why should the state be less man
ly than the man? There will be no
premium placed on murder by the COM
mutation of this Rogers unfortunate
no worse off il the state stays its hand
in the execution of this sentence. Gull
ty and wicked though she be, it will
add nothing to the security of Yer
mont's citizens. nothing to the public
peace of mind, nothing to the moral
welfare of the commonwealth, TO stran-
gle this woman upon the scatfold. -
Wilmington Times.
The above hysterica utterances
are without sense or reason. 1t is not
plea against capital punishment in
the broad sense. 1t is simply whine
to save woman whose depravity is
all the more conspicuous and whose
crime Is none the less because she is a
woman. A plea to save a murderess
from the full penalty of her crime is
merely disgusting sentiment. The
fact that she deliberately planned and
carried out her purpose of taking the
life of her husband is lost sight of in
such wall as the above. The News
recognizes that there is an honest diff
ference OF opinion as to the wisdom of
capital punishment andwhile it believes
that such punishment enforced is bet
ter protection TO society, it fully re-
spects the opinions of those who differ
with it Oh the subject Blu, The News |
admits it has nc sympathy with such |
nonsense as that quoted above from |
the Wilmington contemporary. If |
capital punishment is to be continued |
it will never be enforced to better adj
vantage tnan in this Rogers woman
case. Mortified News.

NEW YORK, Oct. 81. Crushed,

eleven, fighting to the last gasp, went
down to defeat by score of "a to O,

Crushed and beaten. but far from

Of 1904 between the two colleges.
Bull throated, hairy of chest and
bullying with beef and muscle, old Ellis

ed to be fairly husky lot Of lads, look

1t was in the second half that Yale's
giants gave an exhibition of what they
could do The first half was chiefly
devoted to getting the machine in
working order, trying out the different
portions Of its mechanism. Then, con-
vinced that it was all right, 1t was
driven to It's limit
And what power there was in it!
Like an enormous steam driven snow
pillow 1t plunged into the Columbia

made splendid stand for Columbia,
practically alone. This was Metzen-

not play in the first half of the game
against Pennsylvania and who, though
playing on defeated eleven, must be
honored henceforth in Columbia's foot
ball hall CT fame side by side with
Harold Weekes.
