Senator Dillingham; of Vermont

the investigation of the executives
permission of the absorption of
the Tennessee Coal and Iron com
pany by the United States Steel
corporation. Watch the other Re
publican senators, one by one and
then again by pairs, flock to the
same side of the question: Barre
Times.
Vermonters generally would not
have looked for their able senior
senator to have taken any other
position than the one that he did.
On the judiciary committee with
Senator Dillingham;, which inves
tigated the matter, were, among
others, Senators Foraker of Ohio
and kittredge of South Dakota,
whose hostility to President Roose-
welt is generally understood. In
the subcommittee Senator Kit
tredge joined the democratic mem
bers in a report rebuking the Presi-
dent, and to this Senators Dilling-
ham and Clark dissented. The
final outcome will probably be a
good deal as the Barre contem-
porary suggests and will justify
Senator Dillingham; in his position.
But such a justification is not
needed, for those who know the
Vermont senator viii recognize that

thorough investigation brought
about his decision in favor of the
President, uninfuenced by personal
bias or partisan considerations.
In this matter his judgment is in
accord with that of the great major
ity of Vermonters, who are glad to
see the able and prominent part
that he is taking in the work and
deliberations of the upper branch
of Congress.
(Woodsville News.)
When you attend a public func-
ton in New Hampshire to which
the elite have been invited, if you
are of sensitive nature, you ex-
list for the time being, in fear, lest
in calling a man "Mr." you inter
fere with his expectations and his
realization of what is due him.
1t would seem as though every
man you met was a general, a
colonel, or major, but they don't
care to go below that; the larger
titles having grown so common,
that to be captain or lieutenant,
and to be called such, exposes the
addressee to a little laughter at his
expense.
We have heard a good deal of talk
about the colonies of Kentucky,
and those bearing the title were
numerous down there, so numerous
that what was at one time intended
as an honor and meant something,
had gone down and down the scale
of worth until in numerous in
stances, it means nothing or some
times really less than nothing.
The pay is small in the regular
army and smaller in the state
militia and it would seem as though
the honor of the title won was about
the only thing in a personal way
the militiamen had to struggle for,
In New Hampshire today, in the
way Of honor, what does the word
captain signify, or colonel or gen
eral? You hear it on every hand,
and at a public function, some
youngsters are tied up in more gold
braid than Sherman was entitled
to wear, after fighting his way from
the Mississippi through a hostile
South, and after a hundred battles,
hosting Old Glory on the ramparts
of Georgia.
These Youngsters in New Hamp-
shire that get away with all the
tinsel, know no more about military
matters than if they had never seen
a gun.
If one can become a general with
out ever joining the regular army
or the militia or exposing himself
to the dangers or without enduring
any of the hardships attendant
upon military service. why seek
those? Why not stay at home and
occasionally bend the knee that
epaulets and high titles may follow
a little fawning.
1t is a great injustice to the sol
dier, and it is high time New Hamp-
shire got rid of the bad practice of
creating generals and colonies and
majors out of nothing. - New
Patriot.

The Montpelier Argus says: The
careful and broadminded Vermont
Issue calls the careless and blgoted
St, Adams Messenger a discredited
newspaper. 1t is very strange
that few people in the State take
the same view as The Issue"
1t certainly does seem strange,
but we venture that twenty-five
Messengers are read to every one
of the Issue. and we don't take
many grains of salt with our Morn
ing Messenger, either.

The st. Adams Messenger in an
editorial the day following the
election contains this paragraph
making special issue point a
moral. "
"The Messenger would like to
point out a phase TO the recent cam
paign on the liquor license issue
that illustrates as well as anything
that can be recalled in recent years
how hard it is to persuade this COM
munity to do anything for Itself
because no two men can be found
here who will agree that both are
honest. That is stretching the
facts a little for the purpose of
emphasis, of course, but it is an
innocent exaggeration and points
the moral if it does not adorn the
tale"
The Messenger has pointed out
one of the difficulties which many
a small town labors under to its
great detriment. Bradford has
been right there, too, when the
voters simply would not pull to-
gether for any cause no matter
how much needed While we have |
not reached the point where we
are ready to give long pull, a
strong pull and a pull altogether
on all occasions we have certainly |
been pulling more together in the
last few years. It's the only way
to progress.

A New Hampshire Exchange tells
a good one on its own legislature
when it gives the story Of the Friday
session. According to this au-
thority. the few members who live
in Concord or who stay over are
in the habit of wandering over to
the state house sometime along on
Fridays and calling the senate to
order and then adiourning 50 as to
make the records look well. But
within a week or two this custom
was the cause of a predicament,
for it so happened that the law
maker who went over to set things
going didn't know that he was the
only member in town and found
it out only after a call had been sent
out to find another member to call
for adjournment as one member
could not call himself to order and
then appear in the record as calling
for the motion to adjourn. When
it looked as if he must stav in SEES
sion over Sunday, a hurry call was
sent to Manchester and a colleague
arrived and made a motion to adj
journ. 1t looks as if the Vermont
legislature was not the only body
that enjoyed the Sunday recess,
beginning the middle of the week.
