FRANK B. HOWE, Editor and Publisher

The Italian priest, who was charged
with having been one Of the leading
instigators in the planning of the as
sault which resulted in the brutal muir
der Of a fellow countryman at Rut.
land early in the summer, has been
convicted by a Rutland county jury.
Rutland county has had an unenviable
amount of criminal business for it's
court during the past six months but
the manner in which 1t has been dis.
posed of reflects no little credit upon
the officials. The quick trials and
convictions that have been secured
will have tendency to check the
bloodthirsty and reckless actions of
the foreign element in and about Rut-
land and furnish an excellent object
lesson to the knife and gun-carrying
natives of Southern Europe living in
other sections of the state.

LeaIsIature,s chIef Problem.

The paramount question confronting
the Legislature is unquestionably that
of tax reform. The republicans stand
committed by the pledge in the party
platform on which they were elected
to Office to deal with the issue OF tax
alton and afford a remedy for the ev-
lis TO which the people have so long
complained, The issue before them
is whether they will with malice
aforethought determine to do nothing.
thus ignoring the promise made in
their behalf, and go back to their con-
stituents with the confession that the
party could do nothing to afford the
people pledged relief.
The special commission on taxation
has suggested various things which
might be done in the direction of tax
reform The members of that body
were not agreed with reference TO
various recommendations, but there
are some things that people in gener-
al as well as members of the legislat-
ure have knowledge Of The report
Of the commission merely emphasized
what was already notorious when it
] pointed out the manner in which tax

numerous instances tending to show
the marked inequality OF the burdens
of taxation resting on different com
munities as well as on different class.
es in certain communities.
There may be differences of opin-
ion with reference to intangible pro-
perty and its taxation and all that
! sort OF thing but If the members of
this legislature go to their homes at
the end of the session without adopt
ing some means to prevent the avoid.
ing OF such an aggregate taxation as
the commission reported and to equal
lie the burdens of taxation, they will
be likely to hear something drop two
years from now, If not sooner.
The charge is made that some law
makers are not in favor OF doing any.
thing because their own pockets will
be pinched, If remedies for inequali-
| ties are provided. We do not believe
this is well founded but If this proves
to be the case, 1t will be so much the
worse for the men responsible for fail
ure to act
The record of the legislature of 1908
will be incomplete without the inclu-
sion of tax reform measure It will
be a disgrace TO the Republican party
If its members in the legislature fail
to carry out their sacred promises
made to the people of ermont. We
cannot believe republicans in the sen.
ate and house will have the temerity

COULDN'T TEAR HIMSELF AWAY
Really Excellent Reason for Reportorial
Perslsteney.

Once a reporter went around to a
certain residence in New York to get
details about the master OF the house,
who had just died, in order that an
obituary notice might appear in the
newspaper which he represented Such
de- ails, as a rule, are easy to get, as
few people have objections to giving
them out for publication. The report
er, therefore, was intensely surprised
When the widow Of the deceased, with
scarcely a word, slammed the door in
his face.
She retired into the house. Pres
emily the doorbell rang furiously She
refused to stir Again the doorbell
rang, more furiously than before. SILL
the lady Of the house would not stir.
Il had told him that don't want
to say anything about my husband,
she thought to herself, and he has
no right TO be so persistent"
So she sat still, while the doorbell
rang again and again and again.
AT last she could stand It no longer
So opening a window over the front
door she poked her head out and re-
marked, severely:
Young man, | do not desire to say
anything to you Kindly do not dis
turb me any more. Go away, young
man"
II can't" roared the reporter, be-
side himself with evaporation

 BELL 100. 6-4-3Ot
Hopkinsville Kentuckian., 1908-02-15

The beTfry top of Brooklyn's bor-
ough hall has been in a quiescent
state for SO many years that a good
many folks we're startled the other
day when the bell began to ring as a
welcome to the first subway train.
Years ago when folks in Brooklyn
heard the bell they began instinctively
to count it's strokes to learn where the
FIRE was, for that was the way the
fire alarms we're given. AT night a
red lantern was hung out on the bel
fry to indicate the direction of the
fire. 1t was the custom also to ring
the bell in case Brooklyns great an
niversary day parade of Sunday-school
children had been postponed Even
this was discontinued some years ago.

cau,es Of RalIroad Ae.Idents.

According to the records of the In
terstate commerce commission there
were 7,432 derailments on railroads
in the United States during the year
ending June 80, 1907. These accidents
resulted in the death of 515 persons
and the injury of $685.. This was an
increase of 1871 derailments over the
previous year, with proportionate in
crease in fatalities and injuries. A
study of the causes shows that a little
more than two-thirds of these acct
dents were due to defects in equip
ment, the remainder to defects in road
way. The trouble is attributed large
ly to the enormous increase in traffic,
which in recent years has exceeded
the carrying capacity of the roads, ne.
cessitating the use of every car and en-.
gine capable of running, and subject.
ing the permanenent structures to un-
exampled strain.

The average man would care for his
home above all other places on earth,
if he got half chance It's in him
to do tits in the most restless and
migratory of his sort No matter how
he roams about he likes to know nc
has a home to go to- and his fond
ness for staying in it is in exact pro
portion--or so I believe-to the de-
gree in which that home approaches
the ideal Not in outward show
most men care surprisingly little about
that-but in the qualities which make
it a place happily different from the
best club or bachelors hall which ever
existed.-Grace S. Richmond, With
Juliet in England"
