LOCAL SCHOOL SUPERVISION

The measure providing for better local
supervision OF public schools through
Capitalization, to which we referred at
length the other day, as progressive
step long advocated by state Superinton-
dent Mason s. Stone. has passed both
branches of the Legislature and received
executive sanction. 1t is a measure which
should receive the careful attention Of
all educators as we'll as of all friends of
the public schools, and as a means to
this end we herewith summarize the i'm
portant provisions of the law.
The new supervision law provides that
any two or moro neishboring towns hay
ing an aggregate of not more than
seventy nor less than thirty schools OF
not less than twenty eight weeks each
may, by vote OF the school directors of
the several towns, unite to form a union

of tho act, except Grand Isle county. all

and receive $500. An Incorporated dis
trict may be considered town for the
purpose OF forming union with other
towns under the provisions of the act and
a town or incorporat ted district maintain
ing thirty or more legal schools may in
dividually be considered a union for the
purposes of the act If the school board
thereof so elects. The number Of school
directors acting for a town or incorpor-
ated district forming a union must not
exceed three. when such union consists
Of two or more towns.
1t will be noted that Burlington and
other towns can act under this law.
1t is provided that the directors Of the
towns forming a union shall form n Joint
committee. and for the purposes of the
act said Joint committee shall be held to
be the agent of each town forming the

BY vote Of almost two to one the
House at Montpelier Tuesday after
noon refused a third reading for the
bill abollshing capital punishment and
making life Imprisonment the supreme
punishment for murder. In the pre-
cedng Legislature the House voted to
abolish capital punishment and the
measure was defeated in the Senate by
only few votes. Applying the argu-
ment used by some of the advocates
of the present measure in connection
with previous Legislators as represent

in favor of capital punishment and the
prediction that the execution Of Mary

A PARALLEL AND A CONTRAST.

According to the latest returns from
New Hampshire. Charles NJ. Floyd lacked
only ten votes Of the number necessary
to his election to the governorship In
1904 the republican vote was 51,171 and the
democratic vote 35, 437, a majority of 1874
This year as result Of the Churchill
movement this margin was wiped out.
and according to present indications the
Legislature must elect governor. The
republicans have majority in that body
SO there IL no question about the ultimate
elevation Of Mr.. Floyd to the executive
chair.
In this respect the situation in the Gran
lite State Is not unlike that which existed
in Vermont in 1909. when the republicans.
after adopting Mr.. Clements local option
plan in substance, were unable 20 secure
the election at the polls OF their candi-
date for governor, being forced into the
Legislature. The Granite State republicans
adopted Mr. Churohill's platform practi-
cally, and though, he remained within the
party ranks after his defeat for the
nomination, tho candidate apparently
neutralized the platform Many republi-
cans remained away from the polls as
indicated by the falling Off in the vote
this year. Floyds total vote being only
405ls as compared with a republican
vote Of LII two years ago.
1t rests with the Legislature of the
Granite State very largely to determine
whether or not Mr.. Churchill shall be a
dominant factor in the republican cam
paign two years hence. If 1t falls short
of the reforms promised, 1t is not difficult
TO tell what will happen in New Hamp-
shire in 1905.

THE STATE IMPROVEMENT SOCIETY

Every public spirited citizen OF Yer
mont rejoiccs in the fact that we have
state Improvement society, and all
hope that 1t Will accomplish for our
commonwealth the good that is locked
UP In Its possibilities. At the same
Time we must bear in mind that the
mere act of organization of such a
society is meaningless. beyond the cx-
for Vermont. unless the seed thus sown
is followed by generous fruition.
1t is not SO very long as State mat
tiers go since we had society of a
similar character. and it was formed
under auspices fully as encouraging
as attended the birth of the present
organization; but it never succeeded in
getting beyond the age of good reso-
lutions Its membership included lead
ing citizens in different parts OF the
state; its officers were public spirited
men who had made a gratifying sue
cess of their own business ventures,
and the future looked promising for
the society. Its treasurer "queered"
the entire project. however. We be-
licve that it did not survive the year
few people will now recall it's exist
ence.
If the present state Improvement So
ciety is to succeed and to promote the
interests Of the State in every possible
way. hard work will have to be done
by its members. and as is usually the
case that work will probably fall upon
a few energetic individuals. There is
grand opportunity for genuine ser
vice to our commonwealth on the part
Of this organization. 1t can aid ma
terially in the development of Yer
mont's natural resources as we'll as in
the promotion Of the Green Mountain
States interests as resort for tour
lists. There has long been crying need
Of Just such work as this project con-
carried out. better service Will be
rendered our people than could be Sc
cured from almost any other organic
alton that can be named. BY attention
to these facts some OF the pitfalls
which besct the earlier improvement
society may be avoided and the pres
ent undertaking made gratifying
success.
