The Court House Question.

1t is only two weeks from tomorrow
to town meeting and by all odds the
most important question to be decided
on that day is whether there shall he
a new courthouse and Jail erected tOr
the south shire of Bennington county.
The voters in the north end of the
county are said to be opposed to it
on the purely selfish ground that they
don't want to pay taxes to help the
south end. If new buildings are to
be built 1t must be through the votes
of the towns of the south shire.
What is the situation? The pres
ent building has been condemned by
about every grand jury for years.
Every physician and health officer
who has examined the place have said
that it is a disgrace to any civilized
community During the past two
years the county clerk and judge of
probate who had their Offices in the
building have both died and the coun.
ty sheriff who lives there has been
dangerously ILL., The doctors attend
ing these cases believe that the char
acter of the building was in some
degree responsible. Do the public
spirited citizens of Bennington county
want this disgraceful condition to
continue.
There is but one entrance to the
building and the county owns no
extra land so that 1t is impossible to
make another In case of fire the
probability is that every inmate of
the Jail and probably the jailor and
his family would perish like rats in a
trap. Is this a condition that the citi-
gems of Bennington county want the
disgrace of having continue?
A town, a county or state is
known by its public spirit and pro-
gressiveness. Bennington county is
one of the best in Vermont and from
its location next to New York and
Massachusetts, and because of the fine
trolley connections, It has better op.
portunity for growth than any other
county in the state. Everything that
helps Bennington helps the rest OF
the county for Bennington is the mar
ket town OF the county. Money paid
out for wages or other purposes in
Bennington goes largely into the peck
cts of the farmers of this and sur
rounding towns. and all the county Is

Stop hammering the legislaturel
The session is over; the record of the
members is known, and all the ham
mering will not change matters one
single bit. They raised their salaries
it is true, and most of them took their
money, as they had a right to do, and
all the talk that can now be put up
will not put one single cent of 1t back
in the state treasury. Has anyone
stopped to consider that those mem
bers who voted for the socalled
dough bill' were real patriots? Pre-
vious legislatures have time and again
tried to pass a bill to increase the pay
of legislatures, but have never sue
ceeded because the body then in ses-
sion would not vote TO raise the pay
of future legislatures unless they them
selves should profit by It. Now comes
a legislature that has backbone
enough to Il to be willing to take such
condemnation as might be meted out
to It for the sake of passing bill that
would favor those who shall come af-
ter. That is not the way the Journal
thinks this legislature viewed It, but
perhaps II was neyertheless.--Man.

Vermont,s State Forester.

Governor Prouty and the other mem
bers of the recently organized board
of agriculture and forestry met at
Woodstock Tuesday and elected as
state forester, Prof. Austin F. Halves,
now at the head of the Connecticut
state forestry department The law
wisely provides that this officer must
be professionally trained forester"
and Professor Halves measures up to
the highest standards in this respect
After completing his general college
studies and graduating from the For.
estry school of Yale University, he
was engaged in the national forestry
service, and pursued graduate studies
in the forestry schools of Germany
and France. In his four years service
as state forester of Connecticut he
has brought the forestry department
of that state to a high degree of eff
fcienoy being recognized in forestry
circles as one Of the ablest men in the
state forestry service of the country.
Vermont is especially to be con
graduated on securing the services of
Professor Halves inasmuch as an earn
est effort was made by the Connect
cut people to dissuade Professor Haw-
es from leaving that state. We are
advised that his decision was deter
mined by his belief that Vermont Of
fers some OF the most attractive pos,
sibilties in the country for scientific
forestry, coupled with the fact that
the new state forestry legislation is
ideally suited to favor the develop
ment of sound forestry policy
Professor Halves is perhaps the
better prepared to appreciate Vermont
attractions because of the fact that
his ancestors were Vermonters and
much of his boyhool was spent with
relatives in northern Vermont.--Bur-
lington Free Press.

FRANK Z. HOWE, Editor and Publisher
Success Of the country.sred.

One Of the frequently recurring sub
iects for editorial discussion in the
state newspapers is the tendency of
Vermonters, particularly the younger
men, to accept the call of broader
fields in the populous centers of other
commonwealth and to migrate even
beyond the borders of the United
States into positions of trust and res
possibility. During the past few
months instances of designations
from the two railroad headquarters. at
St. Adams and Rutland, by men whose
abilities have been recognized by the
heads of extensive lines of transpor-
tation have been unusually frequent
There are today Vermont trained rail-
road officials in Central America, in
Mexico and in many of the states to
the south and west. One of the latest
instances of emigration is that of G.
l.. Moore, recently chief engineer of
the Rutland road, who has resigned
to take a position as division engineer
on the Lehigh road.
IN discussing the drain upon the
states greatest resource, the human
product it is nearly always the ten
dency of Vermont newspaper to de-
plore the loss of this recognized first
class material and to express regret
/ that there are not opportunities of
sufficient breadth to retain it within
the state. AS we read of the many
Vermonters who have made good"
in every state of the union it is only
natural to wish that the distinction
had been achieved in sight of the
Green Mountains and we lose sight
of the one great element that has been
responsible for the successes they
have accomplished, the opportunities
they have had for training Short
transportation lines will always con
tinue to turn out men fitted for higher
positions, stores at the crossroads will
send out merchants to make their
marks in the big cities of trade, coun-
try newspapers, even, according to
the men at the helm in the Offices Of
the big city dailies, produce men who
more frequently secure and hold pos
itions on the staff. The list of pro
fessions and occupations in which the
countrytrained man continually out
classes the city-bred fellow-worker is
an endless one. And the principal
reason for it is the greater opportunity
afforded to obtain comprehensive
knowledge of details.
Yermonters have been in the habit
of priding themselves that the sue
cesses achieved by citizens of the
state who have left the home of their
youth are largely due to the inherent
strength of the stock raised among
the hills, and this belief is in a large
measure true, but back of all is the
fact that what we have been won't to
consider limited opportunity has real
ly been the creator of the impulse to
so thoroughly learn of the things
close at hand that these Vermont
emigrants have fitted themselves for
places higher up
