Ganderbone's Dec. Forecast.

Santa Claus will make the usual
rounds on the night of the oath. Men
will get cigars, neckwear and mustache
cups. Ladies will get the money
which they would rather have. Chill
dren viii get the stomach ache and its
complications.
Then Leap Year dread shall come
again with Nineteen Hundred Eight;
when womankind Of growing years and
single up to date, will hit the batch
lor's plain trail-the unproposing
wretch-and make that worthy for a
while exceeding hard to ketch.-
The sleigh will jingle up the road
the lines around the whip, and George
and Nellie, in the robes, will loves own
honey sip. The sleigh will hit 10
foot bank, and they'll go rolling down,
with Nellie's foot in Georges face
and walk six miles to town.
The money scare will quiet down
UNHAPPY circumstance-and money will
frequent again the pockets OF our pants.
The new gold coins they're making
now without In God We Trust" will
turn up in the hat at church as priced
as any dust. The scrip we have will
be retired, and real dough will look
good, but the old subscriber will insist
on paying up with wood.
The new rules for farmers promulgat-
ed by the Farmhands' Union will &C
into effect on the 1st, viz: Farmers will
provide automobiles for all help, and
will serve as chaufeurs: they will cal
at the second table, and sleep in the
hayloft; they will rise at 4 to do the
chores, and serve breakfast to the
hands in bed at g; they will provide
phonograph and the current magazines
hands will supervise the teamwork from
II to u, and from D till 8; the earn
ings of the farm will be placed il
a bucket every Saturday and poured
through ladder placed horizontally
with the ends Oh two chairs; what goe
through, the hands get-and wha
sticks on the rungs goes to the farmer
The old mill pond will freeze again
And every one will skate;
The mollycodle, modest swain,
Will thither 60 with Kate
She'll slip in such way that she
Will see brilliant star,
And he will deeply blush to see -.
How long her stockings are.

The federal court of appeals has just
decided. that the Colorado statute prohib-
iting any foreign corporation from en-
joying legal privileges in that state un-
less it has paid an annual license to the
state treasurer, is unconstitutional as re-
lated to any corporation engaged in in
terstate commerce. The court adds that
the state statute governs only that COM
MERGE which is within the state. The
courts are reaftirming the doctrines of
federalism established by Hamilton and
" ashington, Lincoln and Roosevelt. This
is nation not group of loosely allied
states--like the Southern confederacy.
The states have clear rights as states
covering matters within their own limits,
but they cannot trench on the liberties
of the nation. The constitutional dog
mas of Calhoun and of the modern
school represented by Foraker, Aldrich
and Judge Parker are resented not only
by public opinion but by judicial de-
cision. The South has just honored the
Roosevelt policy by standing for Ma
tionalism, as never before. The conclu.
sions of Apponattox are unbroken.

The State Board of Health is after
the handlers of diseased meat, and has
issued an emphatic circular of instruc-
tons to local health officers, calling the
attention of the latter to the provisions
of the law on this subject and urging
close attention to local conditions. The
location of slaughter houses and the in.
spection of meat sent out therefrom, as
well as of meats offered for sale at the
markets, are the two things on which
the circular lays stress, and the local
health officers are expected to keep an
eye out and report to the state board
concerning any improper conditions
which may be found to exist.

Though the legislature Of 1905 increased
the tax to be paid by railroad corpora
tons to the state, it is not certain that
there will be any actual increase there
from.
The Central Vermont railroad has just
paid 1923, 967 as its tax on gross earnings
for the six months ended June 80 That
road paid $4,000 in 1906 aud SOL 900
in 1907.
Railroads are required to pay p
per cent of their gross earnings where
those do not exceed $4,000 mile, and
the rate of taxation increases with the
amount Of the gross earnings until it
reaches 49o. In cases where the roads
have an Income of more than $4,000 a
mile they have the option of paying on
appraisal, but most of them prefer to
pay Oh their earnings.
Five street lines have paid on appraisal
in the past, but none of them do so now,
and none of the steam roads pay in that
manner except some short and really
private lines and the Maine Central,
which has but short mileage in the
state.
1t was expected that the increase of
the tax rate would result in an increase
of revenue, which is needed because of
the extra appropriations made by the
legislature last year, but if the other
roads make as poor showing as the
Central, the revenue will suffer.

Vermont should have more forestry
economy. Less than one half of the aver
aye tree as it stands in the woods comes
into the market in the form of merchant
able products. The other half is allowed
to go TO waste. Some trees supposed TO
be of little value, have been habitually
neglected altogether and left in the woods
to fail and decay. The seriousness of
this waste questions made little impress
sion on lumbermeu and the users of lum-
Der until forests began to fail and prices
reached point where building opera
tons were handicapped. Lnmbermen
have too often gone into the richest for
ests of the country and merely taken
only choice parts of the trees, leaving
the remainder to decay on the ground.
Scarcity has now called a halt and
made it necessary to put the whole tree
to its best use. A number of wood fbers
are shown to be valuable raw material
for paper. Some OF these were, so far
as color, strength and various other
qualities are concerned better for certain
purposes than spruce. 1t is possible by
steam distillation processes to obtain
from refuse Southern pine a grade of
turpentine equal for all practical pur-
poses to gum spirits, which is the prod
uct obtained by scarifying the trunks
of living trees.

COMMUNE ALTON.
Congressman Haskins and the
Presidency.

Dear HERALD: In your last issue
you gave some of Congressman Haskius
opinions, which do not think will find
Il responsive echo in the hearts of a ma.
jority of the voters in the second district
lie says, ain my opinion, New England
willsvote in the next republican national
convention for conservative man like
Governor Hughes of New York or
Speaker Cannon This word ".onser-
vative" is the most elastic term in the
English language, aud is used by men
who entertain every shade of opinion,
from Herr Most, up through Chancellor
Day to Theodore Roosevelt. There is
no doubt that Gov. Hughes is favorite
in Vermont and it would not be sur
prising if he should have Vermont's
vote at the next convention, not because
he is opposed to Roosevelt, but because
he so much resembles him, in that he is
no mans man, but has opinions of his
own, and dares express them dared TO
probe insurance companies and expose
their rottenness standing for what he
thinks is right, regardless of how it
affects himself or his party even. Ii
this isn't Rooseveltism, what is it? He
never would have made speech in Con-
gress giving the insurance companies
clean bill of health, or have made
speech anywhere that bore the ear mark
of having been written by corporation
attorney. To quote again: al do not
think that Secretary Taft will receive
much support in Vermont Or New Eng
land generally, for the reason that he is
regarded as the Presidents candidate.
If he stood alone he would be much
stronger. Secretary Taft is
so little known and is known as the
Presidents man.. To my mind there
is no other man before the public SO well
advertised as Secretary Taft, and the
fact that he is supposed to have the
confidence of the President and that he
would be likely to carry out his policy
of a "Square DEAL. This is his trump
card, and looking beyond the National
convention to the election next year, let
me predict that the man who is elected
on the Republican ticket will carry this
tag. The people believe in il; the people
have the votes. To quote again "My
candidate for the presidency is none
other than Mr.. Cannon. Though he
is the same age as myself, II years, he
is young man.. Why did he give us
Cannon's age? Was it to excuse his
own? We all know that II is young.
Why can 60 him six better myself,
and ! am young. And look at Proctor
and Morrill,. No, don't worry about your
age. Vermont never put an age limit
on her chosen servants and never will.
