THE GovERNoRsHIP TwADDLE.

There viii be quite a hearty approval
of this sentiment from the Middlebury
Register:
IF there is any way Of throttling the
fellows who have already begun to pick
out the next governor for Vermont, by
all means let us do it quick. This
merry -go-round agitation would give a
body the vertigo. Let's sit down and
take account Of present stock first be-
fore starting another campaign. The
time for starting the next hullabaloo
should be in the planting season Of
l0l0.a
The way these boomlets are rushing
into print is unnatural and somewhat
nauseating. We have just made one
governor and he has two years to serve
before we shall be called upon to select
his successor. Why not, as the contem-
porary says, wait until "the planting
season OF l9l0' before starting the tur.
moil? II may DO Merrill, it may be
Smith, 1t may be Mead, and it may be
Fish, name just suggested by the st.
Johnsbury Caledonian Then, again, it
may be somebody that the people select.
At any rate, give us surcease Of this
twaddle until seasonable time

IATPRIs0NING 'TNCAPACITATED"
CHAUFFEURS.

A Massachusetts, Judge has just SEN
fenced an automobile driver to prison
for driving recklessly while he was in,
capaeitated," and it seems that the
judges act is criticized because the re-
spondent occupied little higher station

have been in the same court for sentence,
and it was thought that he should have
been dealt with in a little different man.
ner than his interiors" were treated.
The Boston Herald. however, takes the
opposite view Of the situation and thus
commends the judge for his decision in
the matter:
Judge Bishop is to be commended for
passing beyond the stage OF filming inca
pacitated chauffeurs and sending one of
them to Deer island, where, with other
lawbreakers, he viii have chance to
mediate on the incoHgruity Of befud-
died brain, due TO drink, and manage.
ment of q complex road engine. Judge
Bishop was quite right in dealing CURLY
with those who thought TO win favor for
the guilty man BY pleading his superior
ity in station to most men who find
their way before the courts
Such e position becomes imperative in
the large eenters Of population. There
crowded streets are the rule and the
autoists dart in and ont, here and there.
and again winding their way through the
narrow arteries. It needs a skilled hand
to send the ears safely through the
throngs, and mind befuddled with
drink is not capable Of performing the
duties Of a chauffeur Such a lesson
dealt cut BY Judge Bishop is just what
is needed to cali halt in the practice.
Il should serve Is a preventive Of enc Of
the great evils Of auto driving.
