Snow Flowing by Ordinance.

II is interesting to note the demand
of the Springfield Reporter TO dismiss
the one-horse snowplow and substi-
tute q village ordinance requiring pro
perty owners to clean the snow off
their sidewalks. That would be like
the act of a drowning man throwing
away a life preserver and stalking his
all upon written promise of rescue.
Ordinances, written or printed, read
very well but they are not dependable
things when action is required City
after city of the smaller class and vii
lage after village have adopted ordin-
lnces requiring that property owners
sweep the snow from the sidewalks
N front OF their property; and in nine
tenths OF the cases the ordinances are
never enforced and the task of re-
moving the snow is performed by the
corporation municipal or village. In
the larger cities the ordinance has
been enforced and il seems to work
well But for small cities and yillag
es like Springfield. Vermont. the sen
timcnt is such that the public snow
pillow is still a vital necessity We
trust that Springfield will not throw
away its life preseryer for anything
so intangible and menforcible as a
snow-cleaniug ordinance, we'll mean
ing as the ordinance may be. The
good old one-horse snow pillow carries
of the snow, and an ordinance does

The editor of the Bennington Ban
ner is a good publisher and a fair
legislator, but as a humorist he is dis
tinctly a failure His satirical refer
ence to the way legislators carry
away stationery. pencils pens and
loose property belonging to the state
made such a hit that furious denial,
frantic disclaimer and abiect defense
followed with the result that the av-
erage voter firmly believes that every
thing about the capitol, from paper
clips to portieres, not actually nailed
down, is forcibly carried away by
members during the final days of the
session. Defending the indefensible
and then making a joke Of it is par
lous business.-Rutland Herald.
The Banner admits being a failure
as a humorlst but is glad to testify
TO the success of the Herald in that
line. 1t is always a joke. In fact
we do not remember when the Herald
has said anything editorially worthy
Of being taken seriously.
