introduced into one or more OF our State
Legislatures. 1t is evident that all laws,
now being passed will be strictly en-
forced. as the people are very much
aroused in the matter.
A law has just been enacted in France
which Furnishes with heavy fine and sew
eral months imprisonment any conduc-
tor or owner of an automobile, who hav-
ing caused any sort of an accident, or who
having been in a collision with any other
vehicle or individual or object does not
Immediately stop and give his name and
address to the police, or to other repre-
sentatives of the law. This punishment
is to be specifically imposed, irrespective
of the merits of the case itself. Thus, the
offender would be liable for double pun
ishment; first for not having stopped to
give his name and address, and second,
for having caused the accident. On the
other hand, he might be held guiltless OF
wrong in the matter of the accident
itself, but he would none the less certain.
ly be punished in the first instance. In
short, the purpose of the new French law
which will in all likelihood be immedi.
ately enacted by all other continental
countries, it is said, is to separately and
specifically punish the chauffeur, who
having been in an accident, runs away
without disclosing his identity.

Hone For The Democrat

The situation on Capitol Hill is novel
and anomalous. The minority is making
desperate effort to force the majority to
accept the suggestions of the President,
who is the leader of the party that the
majority represents. Mr.. Roosevelt sent
certain things. The majority took no
steps to carry out those recommends
tons. Indeed, as to one of them, and
not the least important, the majority
gave an emphatic if not a contemptuous,
denial.
Then it was that the leader of the mi
nority re- enforced the President with his
entire command, now pleading and now
demanding, that the measures the Presi-
dent is so solicitous to have enacted shall
each have day in Congress.
This conduct has been pronounced
'puerile" by the titular majority leader
and ''idiotic" by the actual majority
leader. So far as we are advised the
President has not expressed an opinion
upon it.
The strange thing about it is that the
puerility and the idiocy of the minority
appear to have thrown the majority into
CONFUSION of rage. Their solicitude is
transcendentally and enthusiastically mag
unanimous. II one may reason upon such
paradox, the Republicans are disconso-
late because the Democrats are making
fools of themselves. They are frenzied
with wrath because the Democrats are
not manly and wise. And then the ma.
jorty proceeds to take from the Ameri-
can Congress what little of the right of
deliberation the late Tom Reed left to it.
Here is a chance for the ex-grand old
Democratic party. There are quite a
number of observant folk who do not
think it is safe for that party to be at
large. Why not put it in ward of the
majority of the Committee on Rules of
the Sixtieth Congress, that has discov-
cred so tender concern for its manners
and its Washington Post.

locomotives were selected that were en-
gagged in hauling express and local

determined by carefully taken indicator
cards. From the data thus secured, il
was possible to ascertain the pounds OF
coal consumed per ton -mile, AM the

The Action of Prince Edward
Island in Excluding
Autom objles.

1t was stated in the Register last week
that the Prince Edward Island Legisla-
ture had voted to exclude automobiles
from the Province.
Vermont should be the next common
wealth to protect herself thoroughly
against this seizure of the roads by those
who have no more right to invade them
than they would have to take possession
of the homes of our citizens. If they do
not know this they must be taught it by
the strong arm of the law. Those at
home who may be tempted to thus ilegi-
timately use the highways ought to have
right feeling enough to refuse to do what
they know is imperiing and most annoy
ing to nine tenths of their neighbors.
Vermonters rule Vermont And by
Vermonters we mean the honest
yeomanry of the State, their wives
and their children, born to the bless
ings that our rocks and hills and
mountains yield, included in which none
are more sacred than the safe and
pleasant use of the roads which they and
their fathers have built, and always
looked after. If any want roads for any
purpose different from that for which
our highways were built, let them build,
but not attempt to steal them
We believe that Vermonters have suf-
fered about as long as they will in this
matter, and in our coming Legislature
will see that all automobiles are forbid
den from all mountain and narrow roads.
with strict regulation for whatever main
roads, If any, it may be thought best to
permit them to use. Or it will pass a
local option law permitting each town to
decide whether automobiles will be al
lowed upon their roads, or not
Let every county see that their Sena-
tors, and towns their Representatives, are
true on this question, not only those who
promise right, but also that will vote
right. If the voters do their part and see
that no aspirants for the Legislature or
fer Congress are sent unless they face
right on this question, efficient regula-
tion will take place very quickly.
