SAVE THE TREES
FROM CATERPILLARS

Editor Daily Record More has
dant glory than has been said of any
town of like size west of the Missis
sippi, and yet less intelligent care has
been taken of our trees than in any
town of equal size in the Union.
If one who loves trees, plants and
flowers will take an afternoons drive
through our miles of shade embow-
cred streets and not go home with a
sad heart over mans utter indiffer-
ence and carelessness for the most
tion of knowing that like eighty per
cent of the citizens of Roswell, his
trees are being eaten up by the cater
pillars, and like1 them he is perhaps
too lazy or too Indifferent to remove
them. In a ride about Aown yesterday
found at least eighty per >sent Of
the many thousands of beautiful
trees infested with the caterpillar
pest, and the saddest thought that
came to me, aside from the knowledge

friends in nature,"- was that an hours S
work on the part of the owners of the
trees would eradicate the loathsome
and destructive pest.
Always, in the past, Mr.. Editor,
you have championed the right cause,
always you have been the vanguard
for the cause of the good and the
pure, and now the song of leafy
branch and rustling green asks you,
calls you to ibe Saint George for Ma
ture-to slay the dragon-pest, to ava
ken enough civic pride in the hearts
of our citizens to rid our green
friends of their repulsive and des-
troying burdens-and failing in that,
to think caterpillar, talk caterpillar
and write caterpillar until the city
council will frame a law that can
compel one having more Incidence
or ignorance than personal or civic
pride, to destroy pest which will
in time, if unmolested, destroy what
has required years of labor to ac-
complish. CITIZEN.

MONTPELIER SCHOOLS
The City Holds Her Own In Fduca-

That the United States stands to-
day as ''wqrld power" among the
nations of the earth, is due largely
to the public school system, which
was adopted almost with the birth of
the nation. During the past century
we have expended millions of dollars
in educating the youth of our lane
and with each succeeding year the
sum expended for educational pur-
poses is increasing many fold. The
mommonwealths of our nation have
We'd with each other in their efforts
to make their public schools as nearly
perfect as possible.

kept pace with her sister states. In

THE DUTY ON ART.

1t Will Be Removed.
Here is a bill ito reduce the duties
on works of art imported into the
United States from the present duty
of 20 per cent to per cent ad valo-
rem" Some peop.e in the United
States thought that the duty on art
was put there for protection to Ameris
can artists. Nobody ever had that idea
that knew anything about the tariff.
They were simply looking around for
revenue.
Why, In the preparation of the Nc
Kinley bill | had the honor to make
a motion In committee to put art on
the free list, the same things that gen
tlemen now propose to put In at per
cent and that carried through the COM
mittee and through the house and went
over to the senate. but that body
thought we needed the revenue. and
they put a duty of 20 per cent on art,
and when the bill came down here the

again at 20 per cent. Coming down to
the Wilson bill, nay friend from West
