DEER DAMAGE $5,00O
Table Showing Cost to the State of
 Vermont for Their Depredations.

Table Showing Cost to the State of
 Vermont for Their Expectations.
 Three counties in Vermont, according to the "Reformer" of Brattleboro, did not draw any deer damage money from the state, according to the figures just compiled by State Fish and Game m- missioner H. G. Thomas, but Windsor, Bennington and Windham counties brought the total up so we'll that there was an average expenditure of $320 per county during the year. Essex, Grand Isle and Orleans were the assessing counties. Windsor drew total of $1,- 692 32 for damage and costs, the latter being the warden's expenses for adjust ing damages. Bennington came next, with an assessment of $1, ,127.71. Wind ham county was third in the list, with $962. .88.
 This damage money is paid out under 8 law of 1906, which grants redress for loss of crops, fruit trees or shrubbery, natice of claims being required within ten days of the time when the loss was alleged to have been sustained The de- termination of the amount of damage done is left to the selectmen aud the town in which the claimant resides. The greater proportion of the claimed damages in this part of Vermont was to growing crops, although the complaints were not numerous. In southern Yer mont there was considerable complaint of damage to orchard Hartford Courant.

PRESIDENT FAVORS IT
Bill Before Congress For Changing
 Date of InaupIIration

Bill Before Congress For Changing
 Date of Inauguration.
 The bill now pending in Congress in favor of changing the date of the inaug- uration of Presidents is being pressed with ardOr, for President Taft is now using his influence. The bill calls for a change of date from March 4 to the last Thursday in April. As the Administra- tion is in favor of it, there seems to be little donbt that the measure calling for an amendment to the Constitution will be adopted by both branches of Con- gress. In Washington it is put forth in a jovial manner that President Taft's experience at his own inauguration was sufficient to cause him to be in favor of changing the date.

A Short Lived Newspaper

The first newspaper ever published in America never got beyond it's first issue. It was called Publick Occur rences and appeared in Boston Sept. %, 1890. It contained promise to publish in its next issue the names of all the liars in Boston, and the authorities, talk ing cognizance of the threat, wisely forbade the publication. The Boston News Letter as the first journal to be regularly published on thls continent. In was started in 1704 and was followed by the American Weekly Mercury in Philadelphia in 17I9. English journa- lism is only thirty-five years older than American journalism, the London Ga zette, an official publication, having been founded in 1665.-San Francisco Argo- naut.

Pensions for Letter Carriers

Pensions for letter carriers and other employees of the civil service department are advocated by Edward M. Morgan, postmaster of the New York office, the largest in the country. For 37 years, " said MT. Morgan, "I have had my eyes continually open to the need of a system whereby aged and infirm employees could be retired on an annual allowance. Such a system would obviate the necessity of humiliating old and wornout employees by gradually reducing their salaries, and would result in more efficient service, for there would De constant infusion of vigorous blood through the promotion Of younger men," Others who addressed the United States Civil SerI ice Retire ment association to the same effect were Representative William s. Bennett and the Rev. Henry Frank

ADDITION TO "AMERICA"
Two Worthy Verses Written by pr.
 Henry van Dyke.


 Henry van Dyke. THE NEWS is in receipt of the follow ing communication from Rev. 0. w. Hanna, and takes pleasure in seconding the suggestion regarding the use of the verses:
 EDITOR THE NEWS:
 l came across these verses by pr. van Dyke, written to be added to America. " When Dr. Smith wrote America" ill 1882, it was before gold had been discoy- cred in California; before people knew about the Grand Canon, and when the West was at Buffalo. These two verses by Dr. van Dyke are therefore a very appropriate addition to the immortal lines of the Baptist poet. thought that through she columns of THE NEWS some of our teachers and schools might like to see and use them. o. w. HANNA. I love thy inland seas,
 Thy capes and giant trees,
 Thy rolling plain.
 Thy canons wild and deep,
 Thy rocky mountains steep,
 Thy prairie's boundless sweep,
 Thy glorious main.
 Thy domes, thy silvery strands,
 Thy Golden Gate that stands
 Afrout the West;
 Thy sweet and crystal air,
 Thy sunlight everywhere,
 O land beyond compare
 I love thee best
