should be talking about Is the adyer-
Using of its resources and natural
beauty Our neighboring state Of
New Hampshire has been doing this
persistently for number of years
with results that comply unfacor-
ably with our own efforts In the same
direction Ex-Governor Bachelor
OF New Hampshire who perhaps has
been as active In promoting his state
along these lines as any of her citiz-
ems, has recently said:
More than fifty million dollars
have been expended In New Hamp-
shire, nearly all of which came from
without the state, In surAmer homes
and summer hotels, and summer tour
lists leave annually in the state about
ten million dollars. Owing to this
business the valuation in some towns
has doubled in the past ten years,
and in some cases building sites of
one acre in area have brought more
than the whole farm of which they
were part was worth ten years
ago. The three thousand summer
hotels In the state and the five thous-
and summer homes have opened eight
thousand markets for the products of
farms near by at better prices than
the Boston market
1T is safe to say that Vermont is de
serving of no back seat so far as her
natural beauty and reources may bear
upon theme like this. II should be
discussed and steps taken that we
may make the most of this sort of
natural wealth.
Other Important Questions.
"Other questions that appear to me
as important, include the early pas
sage of just and equitable employ
ers' liability lava law to prevent
trespassing on railroad property, and,
in fact, every movement that is con.
sistent with the policy of progress and
Improvement upon which we have
been for two years embarked.
Il believe that these matters will
appeal TO the voters of the state In
such manner that they will see that
there is much to discuss and much to
do. The results can never come OF
apathy, but only by each voter max.
ing them matter of personal interest
to himself and by using his privilege
at the ballot box"

Paris Nov. 6-The crisis between France and
Germany which arose over the arrest Of German
deserters from the Foreign Legion OF the French
army by the French authorities at Casabanca has
seemingly been dispeIIed overnight It is now ap-
parent that Germany is ready 10 abandon her re-

that she excuses the action OF the French soldiers
who are alleged TO have attacked Official of the
German Consulate at CasabIanca- Both Herr Won
Sch6n. the German Foreign Secretary, and Prince
Won Radolin. the German Ambassador in Paris,
have changed the Of their utterances, and to-
day they are showing a conciliatory spirit and a
readiness &c accept the proposal made by France
whereby, with mutual expressions of regret, the
entire incident may be referred TO arbitration The
German Foreign Office expects soon to receive a
final decision from Emperor William. who is at
present in Austria
Now that the question Of excuses which imply
censure upon the French soldiers is out Of the
way the French Foreign Office is confident that
the remaining Emergencies easily be adjusted.
AS q further evidence Of her loyal attitude France
has voluntarily transmitted TO Germany the report
on the occurrence made by the police OF Casa
