HOW CAN 1T BE REGULATED?
THE MAJORITY OF THE COMMIT.
TEE HELD THE VIEW THAT IN.
suRANcE Is A COMMODITY TO
BE REGULATED AS INTERSTATE
coMMERcE-oNE DIssENTER. j.

st. Paul, Aug. 31.--while there were
number OF reports of committees
left over from last nights session of
the American Bar association, all of
which were subject to more or less in
teresting discussion, the report which
has all along been talked of by the
members as sure to develop a some
what heated debate was that of the
committee on insurance legislation.
The principal difference of opinion
is concerning whether insurance Is a
commodity that can be governed by
federal statute regulating interstate
commerce.
. The majority report of the commit
tee holds that insurance is state COM
merce. One member OF the committee
holds that the federal government cam
not regulate the sale of insurance be-
tween states, and there are many mem
bers OF the association who agree with
the dissenter.
This subject was called up under tn
head of unfinished business.
The first matter called up was the
nomination of officers. There are three
candidates for the Office of president,
Judge A. b, Parker of New York;
Judge r. S. Taylor OF Fort Wayne,
Ind, and Lawrence Maxwell, jr., of
Cincinnati.
The impression seemed to prevail
among many of the members that the
honor would go to Judge Parker, al
though 1t was frankly admitted by
these same men that Judge Taylor was
strong second in the race. The elec-
tion will be the last piece of business
disposed of at the session today.
The Slate.
Judge Alton b. Parker of New York
was the sole nominee of the general
council of the American Bar associa-
ton for the office of president of the
association for next year. The pre-
sentation of the name of Judge Parker
was greeted with prolonged applause.
AT the meeting of the committee pre-
vious to the general session the follow
ing slate was named, and which win
be acted upon later: President. Alton
B. Parker, New York.
Secretary-John Hinckley, Baltimore,
Md.
Treasurer-Frederick e. Wadpams,
n. Y.
Executive Committee-Charles Mon
roe, Los Angeles, Cal; Ralph Brecken-
ridge, Omaha, Neb.; Rome q. Brown,
Walter @. Smith, Phila-
delphia; Charles f. Libbey, Portland,

"Why not have law providing that
a town representative shall hold office
until his successor is elected and duly
qualified and SO not have town de
prived of representation through the
greed of some men to hold two offices 2"
-[Swanton Courier.
This seems to be practical good sug-
gestion and ought to be passed along.
If the consequences of the failure of rep
resentatives-elec to qualify for their
seats We're to be visited upon them alone,
there might be little call for any kind of
remedial legislation about it. But when
the result is, as it is that the town is de.
prived of representation in the legisla'
ture through no fault of its own, it is ne
more than fair that some such practica
provision AS that proposed by The Courier
be included in the law.

Wooden Sheets.

Answering an inquiry the Springfield
Republican says:
In country houses not heated by fur
naces. nothing contributes more to the
comfort of the family than to have the
beds made up with wooden sheets. Elan
nelette makes good sheets, but best of
all for elderly folks and children are wool
blankets to sleep next to. Winter Is
robbie of its terrors when one is COM
fortably sleeping in wooden blankets.
Many persons are wakeful at mig ia
tendency to sleep is induced by putting a
light covering over the head and ears.
4 square of cheesecloth makes a good
covering, tying 1t under the chm Our
grandfathers as we'll as our grandmoth-
ers, wore nightcapS. Nothing was ever
heard about insomnia in those days.
This is IA simple thing to try, much better
than taking narcotics of any kind. Let
the sleepless man or woman try it for a
few nights.

Politics and Geography.

that Brattle boro has succeeded in secur-
ing the district judgeship plum would
naturally suggest quiescence on the part
of the wtll-cared for community for

for further political preference is con-

Some of the admirers of Attorney
General G. C. Fits are suggesting that
he be made the successor of Congress-
man Haskins at the proper time, even
though he be not a candidate now, and
thus reduce the number of Brattleboro's
public offices one by one; but til Hon

Careful consideration should be given
the bill introduced in the legislature for
the purpose OF securing an appropriation
of $1,000 for the maintenance of the
state board of pharmacy. 1t seems to Us
that the Importance of the work this
commission is doing is hardly appreciaL-
ed The need of proficient pharmacists
is vital, and anything that tends to keep
the standard of this profession at the
highest possible point is protection to the
life of the public. The state board of
pharmacy has labored steadily with this
end IN view, but will be unable to con-
tinue. Under these circumstances there
is but one alternative.

Why N OF 2


Senator Stafford's bill providing for
directors of state institutions that will
direct in fact as well as name is long
step in the right direction. The pro-
vision declaring the office vacant after
the director has absented himself from
two successive meetings without cause
is the sort of thing that will bring the
directorate together and keep them to-
gether. The provision that one of them
shall be a purchasing agent uay not
work out as practically. Why not have
IA purchasing agent for the whole state,
to buy all the supplies needed of any
kind.

While the legislature is wrestling with
the question of providing skilled super
vision for schools it should consider
law fixing minimum. wage for teachers.
All the skilled supervision in the world
won't provide good schools unless there
is something to supervise. Might as
well expect good job from carpenter
provided with poor tools.

1t seems that the bill introduced by
Senator Davis to create one cattle com
missioner in Vermont, to take the place
of the commission as it exists at present,
is worthy of careful consideration. One
competent man should be able to per-
form all tire duties of the office; and
there would be something gained in CEN
tralizing responsibility and in reducing
expense.

More protection for deer is needed.
The use of certain deadly weapons should
be prohibited by hunters out after the

buck the other day with club If he
had used a gun the deer would probably
have escaped. The club as weapon to
slay deer ought to be legislated out of

The Local Supervision Bill.

One of the most far-reaching educa-
tional measures yet considered in Yer
mont is that providing for the local sup
ervision of schools, IA project which State
Superintendent NJ. s. Stone advocated
before he went to the Philippine islands
to introduce American methods in the
schools there. The measure has passed
the House with gratifying unanimity
and there ought to be no question about
its passage by the Senate.
AS the Free Press says it will be worth
while to discuss some OF the considera-
tions that are factors in connection with
this interesting question. Prior to the
industrial era of the United States child
rem grew up and lived in the community
in which they were born, and on account
of the home manufacture of material
and utensils, children were in a close re-
lationshp to the home, SO that their edu-
cation was regarded as for the parents.
Hence, the support of schools was by tax
on the parents according to the number
of children sent. Later, and before the
days of railroads and when children re-
manned in the same locality in which
they were born, their education was con-
sidered for the town. Since the intro
duction of railroads and improvements
in travelling facilities, however, popula
ton has been less localized and people
have been less inclined to remain fixed
in the town of their birth This change
has brought about the idea of education
for the state. AS ideas expand and the
relations of life become more intimate
the idea eventually will obtain that
children are to be educated for the
nation and for the world.
