Usually when men are elected to
the United States Senate they keep
quiet about what they propose to do
and let their actions speak for them
selves. But Jefferson Davis of Ar
kansas, is no such reticent person.
He goes into the Senate next wear
and he has program which he in
tends to carry out and will not
waste it by keeping it to himself
The Senate, in the opion of this later
Jefferson Davis, needs a stirring up,
and he will he the Arkansas cyclone
to do the stirring. "When l get to
the Senate there'll be something do
ing" says Jeff. There are quiet men
in the Senate, who are capable of
tripping up this boaster, in a parlia-
mentary way, and making him look
ridiculous. He is quite likely to find
the Arkansas platform style of little
use in the United States Senate.
H. S. Bingham of the Railroad
Commission, has announced that he
would not be a candidate for reap
pointment, Geo. Howard, who had
four years yet to his credit, has re-
signed, and Fuller c. Smith, who has
two to his credit, announces that he
is out of politics. 1t looks as if there
would be a general shaking up of
the Commission, and either a new
board throughout, or a radical
change in the same by the Legisla-
trre. 1t looks as if it might be made
of some service if the Commission
was made up of somebody who
knew something about railroads,
and that it ceased to be a sop for
hungry politicians. If, for instance,
a man like Harvey w. Varnum, of
Jacksonville, a thorough-going rail-
road man, could be put on to the
board, the State would get good SER
vice in return.

The terrible accident at Vergennes
last Saturday by which at least
three lives were lost and a score or
more severely injured is one of the
worst railroad casualties that Yer.
mont has ever known, unless it be
the Hartford casualty in 1886. That
it was caused by negligence is hard
lv fair to state, but it is true that
the catastrophe would have been
averted had th1 siding facilities been
better at that place and other means
than stoves use Il for heating. 1t
would seem that there is plenty of
work, that a board of Railroad
Commissioners might do in insisting
that all possible chances for railroad
accidents like this be averted by TAX
ing the proper precaution. Travel
by rail is great and the state cannot
afford to permit other than the safest
facilities possible.

DR.. D. P. Barrows, director of edu
cation in the PHILIPPINES, who has
Just reached San Francisco from the
Orient brings on the whole a good
report from the archipelago. The
political situation he says is the best
it has ever been. The provincial
government is in good hands. There
are about forty native governors for
as many different provinces. They
are serious and intelligent men, un-
derstand the situation in the islands
and appreciate the attitude of the
United States. While all but one of
them are natives, all speak and I'M
derstand English, DR., Barrows
states, however, that from the eco
nomic standpoint there is much to be
desired, the islands uff;ring from the
lack of a market for their sugar and
tobacco.

SHAW ]
SCHOOL /
HOUSE
Still Stands on the Old Site
Though Subject of Dis
pute for Twelve Years

The history Of the controversy ovs-
moving the school house in Dist. No
80. known as the Keene or Shaw school
house. extends over period of II
wears. This building was erected In
1872, and is located 120 rods from
Shaw station. The effort has been TO
move it 40 rods west the-efrom. This
effort to move the school house was re-
sisted by the farming portion Of the
community.
AT school meeting II years ago the
first effort at removal was made. This
was defeafed at the school meeting by
twothirds vote. January 27, 1906, a
nesting was called for the purpose of
procuring a site and erecting a house
thereon at Shaw. This effort was
voted down. The Shaw people wanted
larger school house, to employ two
biachers and to p1omo1e the develop
ment of their townsite. The advocates
for the old site were willing to build
new school house aud support a school
with two teachers, exactly the same
in Every respect as the Shaw people
wanted, but claimed 1t was more con
venient for the district at large on the
old site.
The special meeting Of February 10
was called for the purpose of making
provision to erect a school house on
the new site. The progressive element
carried the meeting February 10. The
advocates Of the old site were not sat
isfied, and called another meeting
Manch 10th, when the vote was re-
vcrsed, and it was decided to build on
Hhe old site. This was knockout for
the Shaw people. The Shaw people
were not satisfied, and sued the school
board on the ground that they had shut
out legal voters. The school board
claimed they wcle excluded because
their names did not appear on the last
assessment roll. The contention of the
Shaw people was set aside in the jus
tice court at Salem, and on appeal 10
the circuit court it has been decided
against than by Judge Burnett. An
other suit was brought by the Shaw
people on writ of review, which was
sustained by Judge Galloway, and the
board of directors have appealed to
the supreme court. With the writ Of
rcvicw, the Shaw people secured an in
junction and restraining order, to pre-
vent the erection Of a new school house
on tho old site. Pending the decision
Of this matter by the supreme court,
the litigation will rest, and there is
pdace in the troubled waters of school
district No so. The whole controversy
has been conducted in a goOd-natured
manner, neighbors TALKING different
views Of their rights unde- the school
laws Of tho stato 1t is expected when
IL is tried out every one will acqui-
csce in the decision, and peace and
harmony will prevail,

WHY MAKE SUNDAY
A DAY OF GLooM7

The Dominion of Canada is governed
on the British plan, with a dummy
governor-general, corresponding to the
crown, apd the real authority lodged
in parliament. with a cabinet or min
istry at its head. This ministry is
known as "the government and it
seems to have been drinking copiously
from the fountainhead of the old Blue
Laws of Connecticut. 1t has fathered
one of the most severe of Sabbatarian
bills, and ministerial responsibility for
the measure makes it almost certain to
become law. This bill prohibits on
Sunday all games or sports to which
admission is charged, and all business,
even the sale of foreign newspapers,
is forbidden. All pleasure excursions
are barred. Freight trains must not
move, unless under way when the Sab
bath begins But through passenger
trains are excepted, and also certain
work classed as necessary.
1t is probable that this measure suits
a. lange majority of the Canadians.
There is little that may be called CO.'S
mopolitan in the dominion, its people
being generally provincial in their
ideas. With the exception Of the
French population of the Province of
Quebec, the views of the Canadians re.
garding the Sabbath are commonly
narrow and puritanical. Hence the dis
position of the majority. as evidenced
by this bill, to force their ideas Of
Sunday observances upon the minority.
Should the measure pass in its pes
emit stringent form, it would in all
probability do more harm than good.
But to large extent it would be dis.
regarded in many communities, where
public sentiment would not support
its enforcement. This would be espe-
cially the case in the Proyince of Que
bee, where what is known as the "eon-
tinental" view Of Sunday preyails.
The French Canadians are Catholics,
and their church does not interdiet
harmless sports or recreation on the
Sabbath provided religious duties be
first observed This is the view gem
orally prevalent in the United States,
among all classes, whether Protestant
or Catholic, save in New England and
some other palts of the nation.
The notion that piety may be pro-
moted by making Sunday a day of
solemnity and gloom, repressing all
pleasure and amusment, and even in.
terdieting secular music and the publ. |
cation and reading Of newspapers. is
irrational as well as narrow. Far from
Hsposing the minds of the young to
religion, it makes them dread the com.
ing Of Sunday and nejoice when it is
gone, as they would in the passing of
an eclipse People cannot be better or
more pious by Sunday laws, and the
result of attempted Sabbath repression
OF things In themselves innocent is in.
