From many quarters of the state
comes serious complaints by farmers
of damages to crops by deer. The
News has advocated and still believes
that reasonable protection for the
deer is in the interests of the state
but it doubts if any law can long be
enforced which compels the owners
of growing crops to stand by and see
them devoured by forest animals. II
is not unlikely that some farmer will
soon get around to the point of gun
ming for these despoilers in their cul-
tivated fields as a test of the validity
of the law-Northfield News.
1t won't have to be enforced under
those conditions much longer. After
the next open season, during which
both buck and doe may be killed, the
question of deer damage will be much
less serious. The bulk of the damage
is done by half domesticated doe that
have been heretofore protected by law
and which have hung around farms
and gardens daily growing holder. OF
course they are pretty sight but it
is difficult to grow cabbages and tame
deer at the same time. Some of
these half tame deer will be killed
and the others will be scared back to
the deep woods

The Etiolouy Of Pain,

f. G. Janeway of New York says
that we should be cautious in labelling
a severe pain as hysterical Pain due
to toxic influences may battle us I'M
less we make diligent inquiry of tho
patient and his friends Scietica
should be carefully scrutinized, since
condition that seems simple may
be caused by pressure of a malignant
growth. PAIN in the abdomen may
come from ne kidney instead of the
appendix, and it requires careful
search to know whether pain comes
from the kidney. gall bladder or APP
pendix. Pain of ataxia may simulate
some of these conditions. Pain in
angina pectoris is severe and charac-
teristic when combined with in.
creased blood pressure and ashy lips
it should not be mistaken Medical

FIR lNK B. HOWE, Editor and Pablishs
LEGISLATIVE sLAcKNEss

Sometime the legislature will be-
gin early in the session to Fletcherize
its bills. This will relieve the COVER
nor OF great strain after the legisla-
ture has gone home to avoid the aot
weather Chicago News.
The only man who ever attempted
to teach the Vermont legislature how
to Fletcherize, was, strange to say,
Hapgood of Peru, and he was laughed
out of court. All the same some
scheme of that sort will come to stay
or, the Man on Horseback" is mis-
taken-Burlington News.
Some day the Vermont legislature
may install system of getting work
started in the early part of the SEES
sion that will save the state fully $685.
600 every time the legislature meets.
The old system was all right fifty or
even twenty years ago but the amount
of work to be done has outgrown the
method of doing ii and we need bring
ing up to date.
IN the first place members should
be helped in the preparation of their
bills so as to get them in promptly
and in correct shape. This could be
done by employing two or three com
petent young lawyers under the SUI
peryision of the attorney general at a
cost no greater than the present plan.
Secondly, there should be radical
change in committees bringing them
up to date, dividing up the work that
now overwnelms two or three impor-
tant committees and leaves others
with nothing to do Committees
should not be made up wholly along
lines of vocation. The judiciary com
mittee shouldn't be all lawyers, insur-
ance committee all insurance agents
or the temperance committees all min
listers or deacons. There is work
enough for every member if it is pro-
perly divided.
Thirdly, the committee on rules
should be enlarged and to its duties
should be added keeping track of tne
progress of legislation. Committees
should not be allowed to retain bills
longer than two weeks except by vote
of the Houses. The steering commit
tee should see that bills are brought
forward for consideration and dispos-
al just as rapidly as possible.
Members go home from Friday to
Tuesday simply because they have
nothing to do. This could be correct
ed by putting every man on com
this didn't do it debates on important
bills could be set for Friday or Mon
day afternoons and that would hold
them.
Matters once disposed of shouldn't
be continually warmed over unless
there was some good reason. Cover
nors and especially retiring governors
when they write their messages
should also send in bills embodying
their recommendation in order to
get the issues promptly before the leg
islative body State departments
might we'll have the same right in
connection with tleir particular de
partments.
Lastly the members should be paid
only for the time that they are pres
ent and the veto power of the COVER
nor should be extended so that it
would require a two-thirds majority to
override his objections.
Sometime these changes will go in
to force and the sooner, the better
for the state.

The Deadly Cigarette

Every little while, whenever, in fact
the daily news lacks color, some news
paper exhumes a cigarette fiend"
story and a great many excellent Peo-
pie begin to have dark ultramarine
spasms. Drastic legislation has been
enacted in various states, forbidding
the use and sale OF cigarettes, and
there is a general nysteria in cegard
to the matter that seems needless.
Cigarettes should not be smoked by
minors, neither should cigars or pipes.
The father who finds his boy smoking
a cigarette and promptly fogs him,
with the words: Don't you ever let
me catch you smoking any more cigar
cites. If you want to smoke, smoke
pipe is a fool that needs to be sent
70 a Kindergarten. A pipe will kill a
growing boy much quicker tnan Gig
arctic, if smoked in the same degree.
The trouble does not come with the
cigarette, but with the abuse of 1t.
Many Of the cigarettes manufactur
ed today have more genuine tobacco
in them than there is in a pipeful of
cheap tobacco. man who smokes
the popular brands of tobacco is prob
ably smoking cardboard, weeds and
various adultrants. If he smokes
tnem as much as the cigarette fiend
smokes cigarettes, he is doing his sys-
tenn just as much harm. The cigar
cite fend is generally a mental degen-
crate before he smokes cigarettes. fhe
cigarette is often blamed for condit-
ions hat are due to other causes.
Growing boys have no business with
tobacco in any form. Ordinary men
have little business with it, and no
business using it to excess. Tobacco,
in excess, liquor in excess, coffee in
excess, food in excess, exercise in ex-
cess all kill Exc ess is the great nat
ional evil. When a man dies from
stuffing himself vita food, we say that
he passed away with acute nephritis
When a boy dies of smoking cigar
cites, we tell the truth. Both die of
the same thing-eXcess.
II would be better il we told the
truth always so that boys would alb
stain equally from cigarettes, over
eating and all excuses. Bat let us
blame the cigarette for what ii actu-
ally does, not for a cOngenial deficien-
cy in gray matter that would he ex-
plotted in some other folly If cigar
cites were never made
parent with common, old fashion
ed, wholesome ideas about food and
rational living will do more to correct
the cigarette evil than all the laws
ever passed.-Rutland Herald.

The Marrying Game

Publicity of marriage licenses" as
remedy for hasty marriages is being
agitated in New York and elsewhere.
An attempt was made to do something
along this line in the Vermont legisla-
ture, but because a newspaper man
introduced it, presumably, it joined
the great silent majority on the dump.
If a man designs to marry a woman,
honorably, why should ne object to
having the fact recorded? There is a
good deal more than mere custom in
the ancient and honorable custom of
publishing the banns." Once, en-
gagements were not lightly made,
marriages were not annulled for slight
cause and the home stood stronger
than it does today. 1t is too easy to
get married and unmarried in tnis
country. Rutland Herald.

The State Temperance Union
has been making inquiries as to
druggists permits in Kansas, and
received replies from lob counties,
discovering that in 63 counties
not a single druggists permit is
now outstanding. After asking
some questions the request was
made that the probate Judge sug-
gest some measure to be incor-
porated in law by which the
illicit sale of liquor by druggists
could be stopped. Probate Judge
Keys answered as follows: Nine
permits; $50 sales. Pass law re-
curing every applicant to get a
prescription from a practicing
physician" By the way, it will
be remembered how poorly it
worked, certain physicians not
doing much of anything else than
write prescriptions for persons
who were extremely thirsty.
