what constitutesI An anarchist. Public
opinion draws the line sharply between

tween the right to advocate any old doc
trine under the sun as an abstract prop
osition and the, wrong of melting muir.
der, arson and treason. The public, prac-
tically to man, will support the Presi-
dent IN his order closing the mails to
anarchistic publications. The good sense
of the Post-office Department may he re-
lied upon to. avoid the mistake of abridg-
ing the liberty of the press in enforcing
the Presidents order. The enactment of
press in order to shut off the circulation
of anarchistic opinions would meet with
the approval of the press and the people.
1t is the proper regulation of liberty that
establishes it and keeps it alive. The
regulation of liberty, in fact, is exactly
what the anarchist hates and tries to de-
stroy; yet it is the cornerstone upon
which this republic is founded. "Liber-
ty regulated by law" is the soul of our
government. Too much liberty, or rather
liberty unregulated, is es dangerous and
as intolerable as the tyrannical restriction
of liberty by law. The American people
will not tolerate one any quicker than
the other.
The development Of anarchy in the
United States brings with it plain duty
to patriotic citizens. "When compared
with the suppression of anarchy" says
the President, "every other question
sinks into insignificance. This duty is
the safeguarding of the ancient liberty
that is as the breath of life to every
American. 1t is not tyranny that is
mcnaced by anarchy, but liberty. And
when our liberties are in danger, it will
be found that the spirit of &c burns with
its original brightness and intensity. The
right of every man to do what he pleases,
so long as he does not infringe upon the
rights of others, imposes upon every man
the duty of stamping out anarchy, which
lifts its murderous hand against that
doctrine. The people will applaud Con-
gress in the enactment, and the Presi-
dent in the enforcement, of laws that
will crush out any attempt, by act Oh
word, to destroy government or the per.
sons charged with government Wash

TAKING HIM HOME.
Sweden Obtains the Mortal Re
mains Of Her immortal Son.

The body of Emanuel Swedenborg,
which on Tuesday was taken out of the
grave in London, where it has rested
ever since 1772, was carried on board
the Swedish cruiser Fylgia on Wednes-
day for conveyance to Sweden, where it
will be buried in the home soil, and in
the care of the country of which, when
all things are considered, he was perhaps
the greatest son. 1t seems almost like
romance-this going home after 1876
years Of absence, each year being passed
in the unspeaking silence of a burial
vault of the Swedish church in Princes
Square, a little east of the tower of Lon
don. The home call was long time in
coming; but come it has at last, and
Swedenborgs dust will hereafter lie with
that of his ancestors in the land that he
and they served well.
Swedenborg was a gentleman born.
and very eminent and useful man Of
science long before he became theolog-
ian. He was born in 1888, the son of
the bishop of Skara, and he lived "a
years. He was educated at Upsal, COM
pleting his studies at the age of 81 and
after that travelled for two years in Eng
land, Holland and France. He entered
the service of the State under Charles
XII, when 90 years old; and thereafter
for twenty.nine years was man Of
acknowledgment. mathematician, min
eralogist, zoologist. and 80 on. He
was 81 years old when he first became
absorbed in theological thought, and he
turned out nearly twenty elaborate works
on this subject before he died, not to
speek of a host of unpublished manu-
scripts.
During the 1856 years of his unobtru-
sive sojourn in London grave, Sweden
borg has had time to test his theological
theories. He professed to be reporter
in these matters, rather than an diviser of
new things. at has been given me-"
he wrote. "to be together with angels,
Middlebury register. (Middlebury, Vt.) 1886-1937, 1908-05-01

and to speak with them as man with man,
and also to see the things which are in
the heavens and in the bells, and this
during thirteen years." He divided the
state after death into three parts, and
made the passage through these three
stages largely a matter of natural, and,
therefore, inevitable selection. 1t would
be interesting TO know how the test has
come out in his case. He had great
deal to say about the exteriors and the
interiors of mantle exteriors being
what other people see, the interiors being
what each soul knows itself to be. The
distinction holds good today. For the
rest, his teachings make for simplicity,
humility, unselfishness and cheerful hu-
man kindness. He scorned the man who
simply turns this life into a means of
getting into heaven, and taught that if
we are kind and considerable and helpful
to others here, heaven will take care of
itself. he would have mankind animal
ed by good qualities rather than aiming
to secure selfish results. He believed
that like seeks like, not only before. but
after, death. He was great awakener,
if nothing more; and he did and this
theological work after he had rounded
out a full distinguished career as purely
scientific man. Sweden is quite right in
her decision to bring his body home

FRIDAY, MAY I, 1908.
The Conventions.

The Republican Conventions, at Bur-
lington, State and district, for the election
of delegates to the Republican National
Convention at Chicago for the nomina-
ton of candidates for president and
vice-president, were well attended and
in the main very satisfactory, choosing
delegates and alternates whose names
are given in another column.
The convention was very strongly
Roosevelt convention, although certain
influences had evidently been striving
to make it otherwise. Our townsman,
Thad M. Chapman, was most cordially
and unanimously elected one of the dele
gates, as the Register felt sure he would
be, and there can be none better. as
Thad is with the people, and with the
party in support of Theodore Roose-
welt; and Rooeevelt's name is the only
one that should be seriously considered
at Chicago, and we believe the only one
that will be.
For we think that. both convention
, and the nation will be so overwhelm-
ingly in his favor that the President will
be obliged to withdraw any objection,
and be nominated by reclamation.
This is as it should be, for he is the
great leader in the efforts the People are
making to correct certain gross evils
which have crept into the commercial
life of the nation, that may be cor
rected now peacefully, especially through
the Republican party, but which re-
peatedly in the worlds history, as in that
of France, terminating in the Napoleon
dynasty, have led into great intestine
troubles, only ending after years of
rspine and strife.
The only contest in either convention
was between the names of Allen NJ
Fletcher of Cavendish, and Col. Estey
of Brattleboro Other things being
equal, the fact that one delegate had al.
ready been chosen from Windham
county, but none from Windsor would
have favored Mr.. Fletcher's nomination
But back of that was Mr.. Fletcher's
personality, for he is an uncommonly
clear thinker, and foresees that the out
come of the convention certainly should
be, and almost Of necessity must be Mr..
Roosevelt's nomination. 1t was soon
evident that Mr.. Fletcher had the con.
vention in his favor, in spite of very
earnest efforts Of Col. Merrill, for what
reason we do not know, to defeat him
and when the time came to vote the
name of the Windham county candidate
was withdrawn, and Mr.. Fletcher unan
imousy chosen. We believe he will
be one of the most efficient members; and
we trust and are willing to believe, that
the delegates as a whole, will reflect the
wishes of the great majority of the party
whether Of Vermont or the Union-and
great many who have not hitherto
belonged to the party, but who if Roose-
welt is nominated will join it-and use

A Glance Ahead.

1t is manifest that Mr.. William R.
Hearst and those who think as he does
do not see the necessity for the Demo
cratic party to lag superfuous on the
stage after November next, and it is
equally clear that it is the design of Mr..
Hearst to appropriate the vestments of
the old party after its departure and
annex its following to the Independence
League.
The one hope of Mr.. Bryan and his
friends is that the effect of last falls
panic will insure Mr.. Bryan's election.
Even so clear an observer as Col. Henry
Watterson is committed to that view.
But this is leaving Mr.. Hearst and his
league out of the calculation. Of the I'M
employed voters, who seek a new order
of things, MIR. Hearst will gather in at
least so per cent.
And that is why it would be the part
of wisdom for the Democratic party to
appeal to the great conservative forces
of the country, and their number is le'
gion, holding as they do the balance OF
power in those communities that either
party must carry to be victorious.
The Wing party died in 1852 because
for dozen years there had been toe
many sorts of Wings. Alexander H
Stephens and Abraham Lincoln were
Wings. So were William H. Seward and
Robert Toombs. Henry A. Wise was g
Wing, and doubtless John Brown, whom
he hanged, was another A party sc
divided against itself could not stand
and thus it was that the Wing party
dissolved and its assets were appropri
ated by the Democrats of the South ant
the Republicans of the North.
To-day there are more sorts of Demo
Gratis than there were different orders o.
Wings when Taylor was elected Presi
dent. There are Democrats who would
re-establsh the supremacy of the Con
stitution. Gov. johnson is one. Judg,
Gray is another. Senator Culberson i
yet another. But there are Democrat
who advocate the worst sort of paternal
ism-such as prescribing by act of Con
gress how much product a factory ma,
turn out. Cyrus of Persia never dreamed
of despotism as CALLING as that would
be. Yet Mr.. Bryan wrote it in the plat
form of the Nebraska Democrats thi
very year, and he insists that it shall
be Incorporated in the national platform
at Denver.
1t is this amalgamation of dozen diff
ferent sorts of Democrats that will com
pass the death of the old iarty if tn
sheep and the goats are not separated.
We predict that the vote of the indie
dendence League this year will astonisl
all parties - even the League ITSELF

WATER POLLUTION DEADLY
Causes $4,000 Deaths Yearly
from Typhoid, Says Edward
Hatch, Jr
ington Post

"Water poisoning" as he terms this al
most universal practice of dumping raw
sewage into the streams of the country,
will be made national issue if President
Roosevelt acts upon the suggestion of
Edward Hatch, jr., of New York, made
in letter, which was yesterday deliver
ed to the Executive. ~
Mr.. Hatch is chairman of the New
York Merchants Association pollution
committee, which is conducting a vigor-
GUS campaign against the defilement of
State waters, and of the Hudson River
and New York Bay in particular by ex-
listing and proposed systems of drainage
two of which, the Bronx Valley and
the Passaic Valley trunk sewers. the one
in New York and the other in New Jer-
sey, would eventually discharge 900 0O0,-
600 gallons of filth into New York Har-
Dor every twenty-four hours.
Arguing the government aid, the writ
er says: ~
The government is doing nothing to
save the 30, 900 lives which are annually
sacrificed to typhoid fever--a preventable
disease, as physicians agree-because of
the habit of American people Of drinking
diluted sewage; it is doing nothing topre-
vent the $50, 900 cases of this dread, dis

of the United States in almost incalcul-
able expense and suffering, even when
death does not result-this disease, which
has been continuously epidemic in Pitts
burg for thirty.four years, and which is
now ravaging the city of Trenton for the
second time in four months.
There certainly is reason why the gov
eminent should take measures to prevent
the river from becoming open sewers.
Millions are spent annually upon the
dredging of our rivers and harbors, a vast
proportion of which expenditure would
be unnecessary if the solid filth Of the
cities were not dumped into our navig-
able waters. For lack OF action by the
government. direct or indirect, such
streams as the Mississippi, the Hudson,
the Delaware, the Ohio, the Connecticut,
and the Susquehanna, subject to the
jurisdiction of no one State, are so pollut-
ed as to endanger the lives of the people
living along their banks.
1.-The almost universal disregard for
human life shown by the people in their
attitude toward this question of water
poisoning is most remarkable in view of
the vast monetary loss involved. A few
words of encouragement and suggestion
from you would serve to dispel this
apathy and give great impetus to the
general movement among the people. ~

The President on Anarchy.

There can be no doubt whatever of
President Roosevelt's meaning in his
message to Congress regarding the ex.
clusion from the mails of anarchistic
publications. Among all the criticisms Of
the President, it has never been said that
he was afraid to speak plainly or unable
to express himself clearly. He does both
in his message on anarchy, and in a very
brief space. No person, even an anarch-
list, can mistake the Presidents meaning
or twist his language into an attempt to
encroach upon the liberty of speech or of
the press.
The people of the United States are be-
ginning to have very definite ideas as to

Why Change the Pilot7

Our ship of state sails grandly on,
With hand ut helm no storm can
move.
Why change the pilot in the storm?
Why drop the guide we know and
love
Let those who dare stand in our way
Wen sweep them from our sight and
path.
And those who flee will rue the day
They dared our will, and faced our
wrath.
We have to-day no North, no South,
No East, no West, for strife and hell f;
There comes shout from every mouth,
"Well keep the man we know SO
WELL,
We want man so strong and brave
That fraud and sin must quake and
flee;
One name alone, our land can save,

Annie Bryan, whose skull had been frac-
tured in an automobile accident on the
Williamsburg bridge. John Bryan, a
son of the injured woman. was running
the automobile when the accident &C.
Cured. Besides Mrs. Bryan her two
daughters and two of her nieces were in
the car.
According to the policeman on the
bridge the car was running at the ordin-
airy speed when the machine swerved
and bounced over the six-inch protection
for wagon wheels. Young Bryan shut
off the power and the machine had
almost stopped when it turned turtle.
All the young people were thrown clear
of the machine, escaping with slight
bruises. Mrs. Bryan, however, was
pinned beneath the automobile. The
motormen and conductors of passing
cars released Mrs. Bryan. On the way
to the hospital the ambulance stopped at
the Church of Mercy to take in Father
Farrell. While the physicians worked
over the injured woman Father Farrell
bent over Mrs. Bryan, administering the
last rites.
Mrs. Bryan regained consciousness for
a few minutes only and it was said at
the hospital she probably would not
recover.

GOVERNOR HANLEY's REMARKS.


Personally, have seen so much of
the evils of the traffic in the last four
years, 80 much of its economic waste, SC
much of its physical ruin, 80 much of its
mental blight, so much of it's tears and
heartache, that have come to regard
the business as one that must be held
and controlled by strong, effective laws.
II bear no malice toward those engaged
in the business, but hate the traffic. l
hate its every phase. / hate it for its in.
tolerance. l hate it for its arrogance.
hate it for its hypocrisy. l hate it foi
its cant and craft and false pretenses.
hate it for its commercialism. hate il
for its greed and avarice. l hate it for
its sordid love of gain at any price.
hate it for its domination in politics. |
hate it for its corrupting influence in
civic affairs. l hate it for its incessant
effort to debauch the suffrage of the
country; for the towards it makes of
public men. hate it for its utter disre.
gard of law. / hate it for its ruthless
trampling of the solemn compacts of
State constitutions. l hate it for the
load it straps to labor's back; for the
palsied hand it gives to toll; for its
wound of genius; for the tragedies of the
might-have- beens. hate it for the hui
man wrecks it has caused. hate it for
the almshouses it peoples; for the prisons
it fills; for the insanity it begets: for its
countless graves in potters fields. hate
it for the mental ruin it imposes on its
victims; for its spiritual blight; for its
moral degradation. / hate it for the
crimes it has committed. / hate it for
the homes it has destroyed. / hate it
for the hearts it has broken. l hate il
for the malice it has planted in the
hearts of men; for its poison, for its Bit
terness, for the dead sea fruit with which
it starves their souls
81 hate it for the grief it causes wom-
anhood-the scalding tears, the hopes
deferred, the strangled aspirations, its
burden of want and care.
81 hate 1t for it's heartless cruelty to
the aged, the infirm and the helpless; for
the shadow it throws upon the lives of
children; for its monstrous injustice to
blameless little ones.
81 hate it as virtue hates vice, as
truth hates error, as righteousness hates
sin, as justice hates wrong, as liberty
hates tyranny, as freedom hates OPP
preston.
81 hate it as Abraham Lincoln hated
slavery. And as he sometimes saw in
prophetic vision the end of slavery and
the coming of the time when the sun
should shine and the rain should fall
upon no slave in the Republic, 80 some
times seem to see the end of this unholy
traffic; the coming of the time when. if
it does not wholly cease to be, it shall
find no safe habitation anywhere be-
