the president is sufficient.
Republican.
Nevertheless, although the story OF
the presidents connection with this
very questionable enterprise shows no
fault or foible in him with which the
public is not already familiar. he did
authorize the use of his signed photo
graph in Fads and Fancies. He did
not realize that he was doing so, on
account of an impetuous chivalry
which blinded him to everything ex-
cept the fact that a gentlewoman--as
he upposed--bearing irreproachable
credentials, had asked him for his au-
tographed picture.
Mrs. Wade Hampton, who did the job
for Fads and Fancies in September,
1901, has told the story of the inter-
view. She gained access to the pres
ident as the bearer of letters from her
father-in-l law. Gen. Wade Hampton,
which touched on personal matters
only. She says that the president
gave her the photograph and told her
to do anything she pleased with IT;
but would pay no attention when she
tried to explain about the BOOK
launching off into talk about Gen.
Hampton-although she did manage
to tell him that the book would not
cost him anything.
And then. regardless of the fact that
she was Gen. Hamptons daughter-ln-
law and that the high-minded presi-
dent of the United States had trust
ed implicitly in her inability, as such
to make improper use of his hospitality
and favor. she sold the picture to a

The Londonderry SITTER thinks we

tract jumping common-school teacher
unless we include, under the ban or
our disapproval. state Superintendent
Ranger himself, to whom. 1t says, the
teachers look for example and VINO
to better himself financially, has left
unfinished the term for which he was
elected. The SITTER notes that at
teachers meetings. educators have al
ways exhorted the teachers against
this practice and that bill was even
introduced In the last legislature to the
effect that the certificate might be re-
yoked of any teacher who. after con-
tracing to teach a certain schooi
should resign and accept similar pos
ition elsewhere. We do not think any
one blames Mr.. Ranger for resigning
his position In Vermont for one which
pays him better. We do not think n
teacher can be blamed either, for do
ing the same thing. provided he take
such action between terms and when
his employers are able and willing to
arrange matters suitably. A conscien-
tious person would not break con-
tract to the obvious disadvantage OF
the other party or without the con-
sent of the latter. Why should anv
school wish to retain the compulsory
service of one without such sense or
honor? Yet If there be. in Vermont,
a teacher who would deliberately break
a contract to the loss and inconven-
fence of the other party. he should not
be allowed to retain his certificate and
go on teaching his brand of business
ethics to Vermont boys and girls.

Although the boundary line between
Vermont and Canada Is slightly out
of Joint, lit is officially stated in
Washington that the state is in no
danger Of losing any territory. This
is well. Vermont has neither people
nor votes to spare. Besides. she has
trouble enough in getting herself
snugly and properly fitted into the UNI
ion For long years before the revolu-
ton Vermont was the subject of ter
ritoria fight in which New Hamp-
shire. New York. and in the early pc
riod Massachusetts. took part. This
quarrel kept her out of the confedera-
ton and delayed her admission to the
union until 1871. Beginning in IT'S
she had an independent government,
of which Thomas Chittenden was twice
the head and Moses Robinson once.
The Green Mountain Boys fought in
the Revolution as the forces of sep
arate commonwealth. A petty bound
airy dispute ought not to be linked at
this interval with chain of territorial
romances to which time has given his
toric dignity Besides. nobody from
Vermont can be spared to the union.

If there were no newspaper report
ers who abused public confidence by
weaving, like Anna Batchelder, upon
cheap and unwashapie
fabrics when honest and service
able ones could be just as easily con-
structed, there would be less inciina-
tiou on the part of honest people to
exclude reporters from important
hearings and situations. But because
of the few writer's who have no
scruples against sacrificing truth TO
lively interest. honest newspapers are
discredited and hampered and public
rights and interests suffer The truth,
when it hurts, generally hurts. like
