1t is minated that Mr.. Clement
is putting himself into position to
either run for governor or retire in
good order, as circumstances may
warrant; in other words, he is ready
to Jump either way. The assump-
ton is that the no.license vote was Il
blow to his prospects, but as the law
for which he is chiefly responsible
was not on trial at the recent town
elections there is little reason to sup
pose that the vote would deter him
in any degree, Mr.. Clement is still
the most interesting figure in the po-
ltical field. His moves are being
watched with as much interest as
ever and it would end hours and
days of anxiety in more than one po-
litical headquarters if he should only
say whether he will or he won't.

Spirit of the age. [volume] (Woodstock, Vt.) 1845-1913, 1904-03-12

Rutland city and all the other Rut-
lands must get along with one Ii
censed bar-that devil OF devils, an
"open" saloon, as opposed to the
liquor emporiums which do not
hang out sign. This is Rutland's
way, this year, of disposing of the
enemy, but with every apology to
the members of that total abstinence
stronghold, we don't think it will
work or that it is common-sense
proposition. But this is the way it
goes with new law after fifty years
of underground traffic, of side-doors
and drunkenness. 1t is uureason-
able to expect that things will adjust
themselves in six months or Il year,
and when place like Rutland runs
up a prohibition flag it is a pretty
sure sign that it has not quite got
down to settled policy, unless there
is permanence in the same old pro-
hibition that never worked very well
in the town over the mountain.

spanisrds spend More To support Bull
Rings Than the SchooIs--A
Significant Comparison.

Schoolhouses are very scarce In Spain.
More money is paid to support bull
rings than the schools. II Is estimated
that more than s5.OOO.OOO is expended on
bull fights during each year, while in
1901 only $1.617,314 was expended for
public education. says William e. Cur
tbs. in Chicago Record Herald.
There were more students in the uni
verslty Of Salamanca alone 400 years
ago. during the reign of Ferdinand and
Isabella, than are enrolled in all Of the
nine universities of Spain to-day, and.
by the census of 1896, more than 68 per
cent. of the population is illiterate. The
exact figures show that 6.104,470 can
neither read nor write, S.417, S55 can read
a little, while 2,6S6,615 can read and
write a little.
The act of July. 1902. requires a school
for every 500 population. and the min
lister of education is required to ex-
anime teachers to see that they are
qualified, and to inspect the schools for
sanitary reasons and for discipline, but
the law is not enforced.
A few days ago Senior Silvela, recent
ly prime minister, in explaining his re-
tirement from political life, declared
that he had reached the melancholy
conclusion that his country was not in
terested in agriculture, industry, trade,
public works or public instruction.

plies the people Of the country with
practically all the raisins that they

state, with New York and Ohio, pro-

and nearly 100000 tons in weight.
The amount Of wine made in the
United States is, however, very small
compared to that produced in the
countries of Europe. Even Turkey,
whose Mohammedan population drink
little wine, produces nearly twice as
much wine as the United States.
France in 1901 produced 1.523,233,-
