high schools. The Herald seems TO far
that every town with an adjacent acsd-
envy or institute will give up its own
high school and allow the state to pay
the tuition o; its advanced pupils.
The Herald is not quite accurate in its
description OF this Law relating TO tuition
for advanced pupils. Towns without
high schools Of their own are compelled
to provide instruction for such pupils in
high schools or academies OF other towns
byspaying their tuition charges therein,
10 10 a certain amount per year. This Is
absolute. The towns must pay it in the
first instance. The high schools charge
il 10 the towns and they settle. This is
the first step. Next comes procedure
By which, under certain conditions only,
the towns, CT some OF them, draw back
from the state part or all Of the amount
paid for higher instruction. These con-
ditions relate to the amounts "raised aud
expended for current school purposes"
by the towns; and whether the towns
paying advanced tuition draw anything,
or il anything, how much, depends on how
high tax they raise for current school
purposes. II less than forty cents on the
dollar, they draw nothing; il forty TO
fifty cents, they draw one-fourth of the
amount paid for free tuition; if fifty to
sixty, one-half; il sixty to seventy, three
fourths; IL more than seventy, they draw
back the whole amount. In other words,
the state helps those towns that are dis
posed to be liberal themselves in matters
of education. II the state is to help in
any degree, IT appears that this is per-
fectly safe basis on which to dispense it's
charity.
II the Herald will examine the list Of
towns that realize from the distribution
by the state OF something like $4,000
annually in partial repayment for the
sums they expend for advanced tuition, 1t
will find the benefit very generally scat
tered among the smaller and poorer
towns that really need such assistance.
Compelling every town to provide higher
instruction at its own expense outright
would have been an impossibility because
OF the resultant expense. Nobody
questions the marked benefit that has fol-
lowed the passage Of the act. 1t is
doubtful II there are more leaks or abuses
than in the operation OF any law of gen.
eral nature.

Disagreement in Eddy Trial.

The jury in the Rutland county court
case Of State vs.. Robert Eddy, charged
with the murder OF Miss Mary j. johnson
Of Wallingford, Oct. 9, disagreed Nov. II
after Al hours OF deliberation. The case
was given to the jury late Monday after
noon.
The case has caused a great deal OF in
terest throughout the state. The body of
Miss johnson was found on the floor of
her home in Wallingford and bruises on
her throat and signs of struggle in the
room led the officers to believe that the
woman bad been murdered. Eddy was
placed under arrest at the instance Of
States Attorney ]. c. Jones of Rutland.
An autopsy was held, after which Mr..
Jones made the statement that he had
good evidence against Eddy. The case
was brought to trial in the Rutland coun-
~ court, bat had been under way but a
short time when it was found that the
iurymen had not been kept together and
new jury was secured to hear the case.
The new jury was taken to walIineford
to view the scene OF the murder and Fri
day, Nov. 5, the taking OF testimony was
begun. The state had 81 exhibits Of
w. AAS RAoncCutlUu HleuDl-
ed to connect Eddy with the murder in
various ways and attempted to show that
the prisoner was at the scene of the muir
der the night Of the crime.
Mark Sautelle testified that be was
talking to Eddy on the streets Of Wall
ingford, the night before the murder.
Miss johnson passed them, and Eddy
boosted OF what be was going to do to her
that night.
The state introduced testimony for Ave
days. The defense Immediately moved
for a verdict and that the respondents ac-
quittal be ordered on the ground that the
prosecution had failed to show that there
was any question to 60 to the Jury a. to
bis guilt or innocence. The motion was
overruled and the defense began its side

For this reason the disease is commonly

authority has defined neuralgia as atbs

This is true because the nerves receive

PRESS NOTES.
81 Gents a Day for teachers.

The summary OF the report read before
the Vermont Women Teachers club at
its recent meeting in Burlington and
printed in another column contains start
ling information. An average wage OF 81
cents a day for the 1855 days OF year for
women who have to spend years in pre-
paration for their work and who have to
maintain the social position OF school
teacher is ruinous. II will ruin the
teachers in financial way, will ruin the
profession by robbing It OF worthy mem
bers aud will ruin the community in its
failure to secure teachers capable of de-
veloping the best qualities OF the children
who are becoming more and more de-
pendent on the public schools for correct
ideals Of life. No wage Garner whose
average pay is only 81 cents a day can
qualify himself to teach calf, but Yer
monters are asking the pick OF the young
womanhood OF the state to serve at that
price in the more exacting work OF train
ing their children. This is matter not
simply to think about but to act upon

Financial Leak.

The Rutland Herald points to a leak in
the state treasury which seems to have
escaped observation heretofore. The law
provides for free advanced tuition, at the
states expense of pupils in towns which
do not support a high school. Towns in
which good academies are located, like
Poultney, Manchester, St. Johnsbury,
Danville and Derby, do not maintain
high schools, but draw from the state
treasury money to be used ia sending pu-
pills u the academies within their own
borders. II is a crafty scheme, whereby
the towns avoid the expense and trouble
OF running high schools and milk the
state treasury for tuition fees. st.
Johnsbury, for instance, drew 81, 523.56
in the year l907-0s for the tuition of her
pupils in ST. Johnsbury academy, and
bad no expense for q high school.
Towns like Brattleboro and Rocking ham,
and cities like Rutland and Burlington,
which make large expenditures for high
schools, by payments to the state school
fund, of course contribute their proper
tomato share towards the expense OF these
tuitions.-Brattleboro Phoenix.

Granite Strike Sun On.

The situation Ia the granite lockout IN
Washington county is unchanged. Moth
ing has been seen Of james Duncan, the ma
tional secretary. The manufacturers OF
Barre and Montpelier met Saturday and
voted to a man to remain firm in the posi.
tion they have taken. II is freely predicted
that the granite cutting business will be
ct a standstill until after the new year.
II can safely be said that a majority OF
the 1000 cutters who are now locked out
are not in favor Of being idle and would
gladly go to work tomorrow morning n
the trouble could be settled. The total
pay roll for the cutters now idle in Barre.
Montpelier and Mortified is in excess az
$4,000 day. II this lockout should ex-
tend until after the holidays it can easily
be estimated what an immense sum will
be lost in wages, to say nothing Of the
financial loss to the manufacturers In
having their plants lie idle.
The almost total cessation of shipments
OF granite since the lockout began has
been severely felt by the railroads. The
Central Vermont railroad has laid of the
night crew at Barre and has put the v ork
onto the crew in the Montpelier yard.
The rolls.of the cutters In the places
Affected by the lockout are made up ready
Tor the payment Of strike pay which be-
gan Tuesday morning. The Northfield
branch OF the Cutters union through its
president has not only sent urgent ,ele-
grams to James duncan but has also ade-
manded" that he come at once to helm
settle the difficulty.
One deplorable feature OF the lockout ia
the orders for work that are already he
ginning to go elsew here. prominent
wholesaler placed Saturday $40, 600 ord
er at South Ryegate that was intended for
Barre, and other smaller orders are daily
dehected elsewhere. Such business once
lost is very hard to regain.
