Railroad Commissioner Resigns.

George T. Howard of Craftsbury, a
member of the state board of railroad
commissioners, has rendered his resig-
nation to Governor Proctor and it is
expected that it will be accepted.
This action probably grows out OF
the investigation of accounts of the
state boards authorized by the present
legislature and during the past week
this committee has been in session and
has given the accounts of the railroad
commission careful scrutiny.
1t was intimated some time ago that
unless Mr.. Howard resigned, his resig-
nation might be demanded by the gov
ernor, although the governor has made
no such official statement.
The terms of the members of the
commission are six years. II. 5. Bing-
ham of Bennington retires this year
and is not candidate for reappoint-
ment. Fuller C. Smith of Montpelier
has two years more to serve, while Mr..
Howard s term would not has expired
until 1910.

Everybody's for. Christmas.

The Christmas Every body's is full to over
flowing with the holiday spirit, as indicated
by the character of fiction, essay, and verse,
but at the same time the serious undertake
ings of purposeful magazine are not neg
lccted
There are ten well.known writer's of fiction
represented in the number. and five impor-
tant special articles.
A notable contribution is the first install
ment of Thomas w. Lawson's story Friday,
the 18th, dramatically interesting romance
of Wall street and its ramifcations. 1t has
been the general expectation that Mr.. Lawson
could tell an intensely interesting story, but
few have guessed his command Of vivid and
finished narrative style as applied to the
purposes of fiction.
