Discussing on the subject of govt the
London Telegraph says: "Ofall articles
of diet those most likely to bring on govt
are alcoholic drinks of all kinds, although
there are a few that are comparatively
harmless in this respect, such as whisky
and light Rhine wines. 1t may be noted
in passing that govt is comparatively I'M
common in Scotland and the Rhine prov.
inces, where, respectively, whisky and
light hooks are popularity consumed in
preference to heavy matted liquors. The
late Sir Alfred Gsrrod, who was an ac-
knowledged authority on govt, very
strongly expressed his opinion of the part
played by alcoholic drinks in the produc-
ton of govt in the following terms:
There is no truth in medicine better
established than the fact that the use OF
fermented liquors is the most powerful OF
all the predisposing causes of govt; nay,
so powerful that it may be a question
whether govt would ever have been
known to mankind had such beverages
not been INDUCED in"

Sweets Revenue,

The coming of colored troops to Fort
ETHAN Allen and the consequent protests
of some of the citizens of Burlington,
gives the St. Adams Messenger an OPP
portunity to get back at some indi-
viduals resident in the Queen City, who
howled so loudly because Bennett Young
was invited to give the address at the
Lake Champlain tercentenary celebra-
ton which st. Adams intended to
have-but didn't. The Messenger re-
LEVIED its mind thusly:
Let the Messenger improve this OPP
portunity, also, to suggest to certain
distinguished veterans in Burlington
that protested so spiritedly against the
proposition that ST. Adams should en-
terrain the leader of the famous rebel
raid of fifty-tive years ago because it
would be an affront to the 'old sol
diers', that they now turn their pa
triotic indignation on their own people
and give their neighbors right at home
as earnest and vociferous censure and
counsel as they dished out to ST. Adams
few months ago
And let our good friend, Ex-Governor
Ormsbee of Brandon, who kindly CEN
sored the plans of few good-intention-
ed St. Adams men at that time, now
rise in his wrath and smite these Bur
lington brethren hip and thigh for re-
pudiating all the sacred principals of
the equality of man that he and Roberts
post of Rutland fought, bled, and died
for
Let US have less Partially about this
business of admonishing erring citizens
and matchmaking traitors to the pat
riotic traditions of our Green mountain
home. Let us have the public repri-
mand business done on the basis of a
square deal.
Now's your chance Burlington breth-
rem. Hit some of the folks at home
that you know and borrow matches of. -
The rebuke is deserved. We are very
prone to forget the beam which adorns
our own optic while pointing the scorn-
full finger at the mote which is supposed
to exist in the eye of our brother II
is said that the despised niggers who
compose the troop which is to hold the
fort at the government reservation
near burlington are d BSHllSiHdllly lO'
and form one of the best military units
in the United States service, and to be
consistent those distinguished gentle
men who arose in their wrath, right
eous or otherwise-over the Bennett
Young affair should proceed to censure
their own people, in accordance with the
advice of the Messenger. Consistency
is said to be a jewel and this is probab
ly correct, as comparatively few of Us
are wearing precious stones as persona
adornment.
The war is over, but nevertheless the
Bennett Young affair prevented the pro
posed celebration at st. Adams and the
Messenger is well within its rights il
giving "call down" to those who were
instrumental in preventing it.

PETROL BETTER.

The Standard Oil Company celebrated
John D. Rockefeller birthday by issu-
ing the first roll of new idea in butter,
namely, petroleum butter or as they call
it petrol" butter. Petrol butter is
made from petroleum by process OF
benevolent assimilation. The factory is
at Alton, Illinois. Petrol butter, we as
sumo, is for human consumption and is
designed, it is said, to put the useful
cow out of business. If petrol" be-
comes as popular as other propucts of
the Standard Oil Company it is likely
that the cow in the future will be but a
landscape ornament. The new product
is reported to be about the consistency
of ordinary butter of commerce, but is a
delicate shade of brown. 1t is said to
preserve its youth better than the
clearinghouse butter of which humor-
lists write. 1t does not become rancid
and does not require weights to restrain
its activities when it reaches the age of
discretion. This new vasaline butter is
said to go nice on the humble and Pile
beian pancake of ancient memory. 1t
is safe to say, however, that not in this
day or generation will there be a decline
in the demand for Vermont butter,
made in the good old way, on account of
the advent of this new-fangled petrol
conglomeration. Morrisville News and

WOULD SHELVE HUGHES.

Since the meeting of the president
and Gov. Hughes during the Lake
Champlain celebration, the rumor has
been given great credence to the effect
that tender of the first vacancy on
the supreme court bench was made to
the governor by Mr.. Taft. Friends OF
Hughes think it doubtful that he would
accept the place in the near future.
He is too large possibility as successor
to President Taft to permit of such a
disposition of him. The present out
look is that the Republican party will
need its strongest mana man who
can unite its now rapidly disintegratng
elements as a candidate in 1912 to have
any show for success in the great politi-
cal battle of that year; and there are
millions of Republicans who believe
Gov. Hughes is the man. -Richford Ga

1t is respectfully suggested that the
village fathers pass an ordnance pro-
hibiting bicycle riding on the sidewalks
of Middlebury. We are positively not
in favor of restricting the rights and
privileges of young America but this
habit of propelling the two-wheeled We
hices on the sidewalks is dangerous
to the pedestrian and most of us are
pedestrians. 1t may be that there is a
village bylaw covering this but if 50
it is not enforced. If such a law is in
existence let it be enforced, if not,
make one and then enforce it. Middle
bury streets are sufficiently good to fur
nish good riding and the sidewalks
should be reserved for the purposes for
which they were intended.

STATE AUDITOR GRAHAM.

These various newspaper comments
of approval of Auditor Graham begin
to look suspiciously as if it is not really
necessary to do business with brass
band attachment in order to attract at
tention to work faithfully and honestly
done. Neighbor Graham doesn't work
as ostentatiously as some, and hits even
ly all the places in the road, but it has
been long day since the state has beer
served by more efficient, industrious
and valuable official. Also to his inf.
mite credit is the fact that he is not
cunning all the time for notiriety anc
promotion. In the interest of officia
worth and personal merit the Gazette i:
pleased to be able to say these things. =
