The result: of Yesterdays primary cleo

regard to the state officers, is given in

Never since when returns were carried
by messengers on foot.r by OK teams and

Twenty-four hours after the polls closed
1t was impossible to give accurate returns

The Hunting License.

1t is difficult to understand the OPP
position of the state papers which
have large rural clentage to the pro-
posal to enact a hunters license law
in Vermont. 1t has been persistent
cry of the farmers for years that the
fish and game protective laws were
enacted for the benefit of the city
sportsmen and resident hunters and
fishermen who tramped over the fields
and were a nuisance generally and
that the man whose rights were abus.
ed had to help pay Tor the operation
of the state fish hatchery and salaries
of the game wardens.
The hunters license law is a meas
ure that is proposed for the purpose
of putting a portion, at least. OF the
expense of the fish and game depart
ment directly upon the men who hunt
and fish, but instead of meeting with
the approval of the rural press Of the
state 1t is being condemned as an at
tempt to take away some of the vest
ed righs of the constitution.
This constitution, one of the grand
est documents ever written, was en-
acted in the days OF coonskin caps
and deerskin leggings, when fish and
game were as plentiful and as lightly
regarded as the trees of the forest
that we are now trying so hard to pre-
serve, but because unrestricted hunt
ing and fishing was one of the priyil-
eyes accorded at this time, a good
many people in the state still contend
that they have the right to shoot any
thing with hair or feathers on It when
ever they please
A hunters license of one dollar for
each season would certainly not entail
any great financial hardship upon the
men and boys who go into the woods
II the privilege isn't worth that much
it is high time that the state gave up
all efforts to preserve for the present
and the generations to come the fish
and game that yet remain.

Permanent Highways Again.

Here is some good, sound common
sense from the Waterbury Record:
We hope to see the state make q
liberal appropriation for permanent
roads. making H. compulsory for the
towns and cities 10 match Il. The
state that has the best roads gets the
summer business We want our share
Nature has done her part TO attract
people"
That's the idea exactly; We have
been harping on mis- same question
for many months. Two years asJ a
step was taken in the right direction
when Il was enacted into law that the
state should furnish three hundred dol
lars to be expended in building per
manent highways TO every town which
would vote a like amount above the
sum raised for highway use, and II
the present Legislature fails to contin-
ne this program II will be taking a
backward step
There Is some question whether the
state could compel towns TO raise a
sum OF money equal to that which the
state would pay. but this would not
seem to be necessary. as every com
munity would probably be willing TO
take advantage OF the generosity OF
the state in this respect.
A town Is known--and advertised
by it's highways, just as certainly as
by any other means. The residents OF
every town are anxious to have the
travelling public, and especially the
summer visitors. think we'll OF their
town, and II this is to be accomplished
the matter OF highways must be care
fully looked after.
Il Is probably fact that the major
ity OF towns In the state have spent
more money repairing old roads.
giving them a top dressing, which Is
washed away by the first heavy rain,
than would be required TO make these
same roads permanent many times
over.
We of Vermont have been too long
persuing the neutrality-suspicious.
Motley and the result Is that we are
advertised far and near as state OF
poor roads This condition OF afiairs
Is unnecessary; comparatively small
amount expended on our highways
each year-expended in the right way,
/ under the supervision OF an expert
who knows his business-would, IN
time. give us roads Of which We might
we'll bee proud, and In the long run be
much less expensive than now under
the present slip-shod fashion OF main
tanning our highways. Would 1t not
be n good plan to turn down the pro
position OF subsidlzing the state fair
and nut the money into the hands OF
the different towns for use on our
highways? In this manner all the
people Of the state would receive last
ing benefit. instead OF a comparative
ly few.-Vergenne Enterprise.

follows:
