Not Blamed for Soreness.

while the Journal is doubtless glad
that the university is free from graft,
we a not blame it for being a little
sore over having been compelled by
politics to take part in a crusade that
has resulted SO disgracefully to the
participants. This prompts
the Journal to remark as follows:
at is reported that many of the
charges lacked evidence to confirm
them. This was mainly due to the fact
that the men of Laramie who put ur
the loudest talk before the investiga'
ton began refused to go on the stand
and testify. Twas ever thus. Men
will put up a big talk about wrongs
until they get a newspaper to take up
their fight. But when the crucial test
comes-when they are called on tc
make good-they refuse to open their
mouths lest they injure their business
They do not stop to think what their
cowardly actions mean to the newspa
per man.
The Howler's Mouthplece.
with no thought of telling the able
editor of the Journal anything he does
not already know, We suggest hal the
moral to the above is that a newspaper
has no business being the m%outhpiece
of every bowler in a state or commun
ity and that the time for a newspaper
to take up any move to reform a state
or community is when the editor him
self believes there are conditions that
call for reform. Then it is his privi
lege and duty to wade in and he need
have no fear of being let down on the
proposition. A newspaper has no more
right to put its endorsement on charges
made by individuals or other news
papers for political purposes OF
through jealousy than one old woman
has to go around town telling for truth
what another old woman, who may be
a pernicious liar, said about still an
other old woman, who may be just as
good as any old woman IN earth"

Our S:s5 Central Vermont Train Reached
Barre at 1915 This Forenoon
Weather Cold, Passengers
Hot

Seven hours and forty minutes late,
the early morning Central Vermont train
pulled into Barre at HIS this forenoon
So far as heard from, this breaks the
record. except in cases where the track
is impeded by snow Today there was
no snow; but there was cold weather,
and the weather clerk is being made the
scapegoat Of the ridiculous state of af-
fairs. There is no doubt that ii IS hard
To make steam in frigid temperature
like that Of this morning, but to the
extent Of d seven hours delay i hard
to credit. The main line trains were
reported four hours late. and the other
three hours of the interim were probably
spent somewhere between the junction
and Barre.
The shifting engine kept in Barre was
useless a long time this forenoon. as
steam could not be generated. In order
to keep from freezing To the rails, the
engine was kept constantly in motion,
and this, Of course, made a drain upon
the motive power.
