Colors are being used quite extern
sively by those who desire to avoid
the ordinary appearance that may re-
suit from wearing any white shirt
waist with white suit. The coat,
skirt, and blouse matching in any of

just trifle more exclusive than the
all white costume.

that resembled fairy boots" but he i'm

A Reformer reader who has been a
telegraph operator for eight years and
knows something of the responsibility
that is placed on employees in this
branch of the railroad service sends us
the following communication in which
there is no small amount of truth:
Few of us ever realize as we look
through window Of parlor ear the
importance of the telegraph operator
who handles orders for many trains.
We are speeding along 30, 40 or even
60 miles an hour; We approach tele.
graph office, we see the conductor and
engineer alight, both step in the ONCE
and receive their orders and we are
soon travelling as before. Did you ever
think or say to yourself: "My, 1 hope
he will make no mistaken" 1t gives

but suppose he did, and your train met

company had no operator to relieve

No companies have yet; if they eaten

is a slave of the railroad, and yet it
cannot run single train without him.
So remember his work is not always
pleasant and smile at him when he
smiles at you. And remember also that
when the blame for an accident is
placed on an operator it is not always
his fault.

Are We Buying Diseased Meat?

The ring republicans were thrown
into CONSERVATION last week by,
charges that the state cattle commits
sion had been selling the carcasses OF
animals slaughtered for tuberculosis to
the Burlington branch Of the Swift
Beef company, and that this beef was
eventually sold back to the people OF
the state. These charges were made IN
affidavits from Frank T. Hutchinson OF
Worcester, who swore that he saw his
herd of cattle which had been con-
demned as being affected with tuber-
culosis slaughtered at the Burlington
plant and dressed off as beef, and that
the head butcher told him the meat
would be sold after it had been IN
spected and found good; from Frank
P. Whitney Of Middlesex, who swore
that he accompanied Mr.. Hutchinson to
Burlington and saw and heard what
was given in his affivadit; and from
Perley E. Pope of Montpelier, who
swore that he talked with the state au-
ditor and learned the truth OF the
statement that some of the diseased
meat had been sold to the Burlington
concern. Mr.. Pope has since come out
with letter saying that he did not
sign the affidavit for political purposes
and denying portions of the conversa-
ton attributed in it to the state audi
tor.
The pith of the whole matter, as far
as the people of the state are con-

Arunah Huntington, native OF YER
mont, acquired wealth in Brantford,
Canada, and left by will fund OF
S211,13l.46 for the use Of the common
schools, the income of the fund to be
divided among the several towns IN
proportion to their population. Having
accepted the gift the state proceeded
TO spend the money, thereby reducing
state taxes for the time being, and now
paws 6 per cent annually to the towns
as interest on this fund. In other
words, the republican administration OF
1886 appropriated over $2oo,ooo which
should have been put at interest and
produced a perpetual revenue for the
benefit of the common schools, and as
the result Of this Ubiquitous policy the
state expenses have increased nearly
$4,000 per annum-interest which we
paw on this misappropriated fund. How
much longer will the people stand for
this sort of thing? Let them answer
on the fourth day of September.

eerned, Is right here. HAS THE
STATE OF VERMONT BEEN SELL
ING CONDEMNED CATTLE TO
ANY CONCERN THAT MIGHT
SELL THE MEAT TO THE PEOPLE
OF vERMoNTi The claim that only
such meat was sold as was found on
inspection TO be pure will have little
weight In view Of the revelations that
have been made recently In regard to
government inspection methods, If
cattle infected with tuberculosis have
been sold 10 n concern which deals in
beef and its by.products there is small
likelihood that the people of the state
have not been getting II back in one
form or another. According to the
laws of 1909 there was no doubt as to
what should be done with tuberculous
cattle. A fine of 5000 was supposed
to be imposed on any person who sold
or offered for sale any cattle KNOWN 70
be thus infected and the carcasses of
all slaughtered animals were required
to be burned. In 1904, however, the
law was so amended as to give the cat.
tie commissioners the right to dispose
of condemned cattle as they saw lit,
and the money turned into the state
treasury from the sale of such animals
has amounted to $4,000.
This may be, as some of the regular
republican papers put it, ga Legitimate
way of saving $4,000 that would 9TH
erwise have been buried" but it is
safe TO say that the people of Vermont
would prefer to lose this amount rather
than to feel that $4,000 worth of meat
from infected cattle is being sold them
for food.

Mr.. Roosevelt has forwarded one dollar
for the republican campaign fund. Repubh'
eau newspapers are pointing to TINS as an
excellent example. 1t is an excellent ex'
annie when the president seeks to eneour-
age his party to depend upon campaign
funds provided by the people rather than
by the corporations.
But the president may set another good
example Let him call upon Postmaster
General Cortelyou, who is also chairman OF
the republican national committee, TO state
lust how many hundred thousand dollars oil
money embezzled from the insurance policy.
holders found their way into the Golfers OF
the republican party.
Then when the sum has been determined
upon, let Mr.. Roosevelt suggest that the re-
publican party put it back and call upon
the rank and file of the party to contribute
dollar donations to that end.

the people to forget these stolen funds

We fully agree with the Bennington
Banner when it says in regard to the
present law prohibiting Sunday hunt
ing:
Because few emancipated foreign
ers shoot robins illegally, for which
they ought to be punished, is no rea-
son why an honest workingman who is
confined by his labors to close room
six days in the week should not have
the right to get out in the woods with
his gun on Sunday with the same privi-
leges enjoyed on other days by the
idler or man of independent means. 1t
is merely question of using one clti-

1t should be borne in mind that there
is nothing whatever in the caucus law
passed by the legislature two years ago
that attempts to bind voter to the
party with which, at the time of regis
tration, he may have thought he was
going to vote. Every voter has the
right to east his ballot for whatever
candidate he wishes regardless of how
he signed his intention blank.
