which concern fish and game club ar

of Vermont are ON the honorable gen
temen of the legislature who were sent
to the capitol to enact just and oquit'

Editor Of the Reformer:---
Summing up the recent sensation concern
ing the Rev, Mary Baker G. Eddy, leader Of
Christian Science, You say;
THAT Mrs. Eddy could not possibly man
age the great business interests which fall
10 the consideration Of the Christian Science
movement, was clearly evidenced through the
correspondents who saw her in Concord
Tuesday,
Evidently you have not seen all Of the
reports concerning this interview. That OF
the Associated Press representative the Hon
Charles Pierson, as well as that of Miss
Sybil WILDER and Miss Viola Rogers de.
serihes Mrs, Eddy as being a well preserved
woman for her years. But the answer to
your assumption is that as a matter Of fact
Mrs Eddy is conducting the affairs of the
Christian Science movement and up to this
very date she has instituted every pioneer
movement of the Christian Science church.
I can testify to the fact that Mrs. Eddy is
even more keen mentally than she ever was
before, II is well to note the affidavit Of
Mayor Corning and Gen. Frank Streeter of
Concord, n. H.. who, after a half hours CON
versation with Mrs. Eddy, bore testimony to
her wonderfully keen mentality.
Very truly,

Far-Sighted Judge Ross.

Funny how slow many were to recog'
nize in Mr.. Gibson s railroad commits
sion bill the exact measure prepared
with such care by the late Judge Jona'
than Ross only four years ago. Appar-
emily, not a single newspaper noticed
it. In looking over the bill one is
struck by the fact that in some of its
essential points the Ross measure close
ly forecasted the recently enacted fed
eral regulation system. The PROPOSE
tion of the learned Judge that the find
ings of the board of railroad commits
sioners should go into effect at once
and not be delayed by appeal was
thrown aside as too radical for Vermont
four years ago, but it has since been
adopted by the federal government for
interstate commerce. Mr.. Gibson S re
vival of the Ross bill is timely, and il
will receive due attention.

Mr.. Shaw's bill granting municipal
suffrage to women went the way all
such bills should go when it came up
in the senate this week. The women OF
Vermont, taking them as whole, care
very little for the privilege of suffrage
This bill should have been killed when
it first came up for consideration, The
habit which the legislature has of vast
ing a lot of time on measures which
are sure to meet death eventually is a
bad one. 1t not only clogs legislative
proceedings but prevents the discus

Brattleboro is after the new fish

gets more good things politically and
otherwise than any in the state, but it
is because she has live citizens, who are
ever ready to reach out after anything
good that is not nailed down and copper
riveted That is the right spirit. In
stead of Kicking Brattleboro, other
towns ought to hustle little harder

poetry rather than mathematics. Still,

Why shouldn t literature be as well rep
resented in congress as it is in parlia-
ment? And the removal of a successful
novelist from the typewriter means SO
much more cake for the other nOvelists,
