FRANK 3. howe. Editor and PubIishe

Some years ago the state officials
whose duty it was to let the contracts
for the state printing sent a good por
ton of the work to an Albany print
ing concern and the "holler' that was
raised by a number of Vermont news
papers viii be remembered by many
citizens and particularly by the men
whose conscientious observance Of
their oath Of office was responsible
for the change In the light of the
revelations at the state capital in re-
gard to the printing trust during the
present week it is perhaps well to re
call this incident with the added com
ment that an official is not always
immune from criticism when doing
his duty.

WORLDS GREATEST DRYDocK
It Will Be Located at Pearl Harbor in
Hawaiian Islands.

Washington, Nov. 2O-Long strides
into the future of the United States
were taken when Truman II. New
berry, acting secretary OF the navy
gave formal approval to the building
OF the largest drydock IN the world for
the use OF the ships OF the United
States navy The dock will be loca
ted in Pearl harbor, Hawaii, and when
completed will form the centre OF a
naval base for the ships Of the United
States navy In the Pacific. which will
be a guarantee that their efficiency can
be maintained even under adverse cir.
cumstances
Eleven hundred feet In length. the
new drydock will eclipse any similar
structure IN the world and will be
double the capacity of the ordinary
dock OF it's character Beside Il the
great floating dock which was tOwed
to the Philippines after being con.
structed In the United States will look
like a creation OF the early days Of
naval development and power. Plans
call for a width OF 10 feet, and the
construction will be such that yes.
sci drawing thirty.five feet OF water
can be lifted. Through the establish.
ment OF a caisson gate In the center
OF the high structure two OF the largest
hattleships OF the navy can be locked
at the same time. Some idea of the
size of the dock can be gathered from
the fact that Il will hold three Of the
older battleships. or three ordinary
cruisers, or half a dozen guuhoats

People Have Right to Know.

once more in the history of Yer
mont legislatures the senate has re-
fused to take the public into it's con.
fdence when transacting the public's
own business and made a great mys.
terry of secrecy over a matter that the
people of Vermont have a constitution.
al right to know all about. The nom
nations for appointment to certain
state Offices sent by the governor to
the senate for confirmation have been
received in executive session, or what
amounts to the same thing, with the
official intention that the public should
not know the names Of the men nom
mated until the senate had taken final
action thereon. In other words. this
senate like its predecessors, appears
to think this business of choosing pub
lie officers is a little matter OF privacy
between the governor and itself and
that it will be time enough to take the
people into partnership after the bus
mess is all done and It is too late to
change it.
The Messenger protests again as Il
has at every session for years that the
right TO know what nominations he
sends to the senate in their name and
to know them before the senate has
acted upon them and it is too late for
any popular expression of approval
to be effective.
When the president of the United
States sends nominations to the Sen
ate for confirmation the people are
told Of it at the same time the Senate
is, and the people have an opportunity
through the press and otherwise TO
express their minds about the matter
before It Is too late. The same right
obtains in Vermont and for the same
reasons. When the governor sends
these names to the senate. he does Il
in the behalf of every citizen in the
state. When he makes choice I'm his
own mind OF the names he will send
to the senate and sends them he must
expect to answer to the people that
elected him and whose servant he Is
for the choice he made 1t Is not in
the province of the senate or any other
body of men to keep that choice secret
and 20 act upon IL when II is too late
for the people 10 be heard
This protest may be useless now.
but Il is put forth In obedience to a
conviction Of principle and IL will be
put forth hereafter In the hope that
some day the people will come into
their own in this business.-St. Adams
Messenger.

Women VINO Wear Wen.

Il Ia astonishing how great change z
Few years Of married life often make IN
the appearance and disposition Of many
women. The freshness, the charm, the
brllliance vanish like the bloom from a
peach which is rudely handled. The
natron is only dim shadow, a faint echo
Of the charming maiden. There are two
reasons for this change, ignorance and
neglect. Few young women appreciate
the shock TO the system through the
change which comes with marriage and
motherhood. Many neglect TO deal with
the unpleasant pelvic drains and weak.
nesses which too often come with mar
rlage and motherhood, not understanding
that this secret drain Is robblng the check
Of It's freshness and the form OF It's
fairness.
