FRANK 3. HOWE, Rditsr aad PubIishs

The action of the representatives of
Vermont labor unions at Hardwick in
adopting resolutions condemning the
Republican party in this state be-
cause of the failure of the legislature
last fall to carry out tne platform
promise to pass law exempting $40
in wages from trustee process is only
the first of similar actions that may
reasonably be expected. The party
offense in regard to this bill was par
ticularly fragrant for the bill was kill
ed by the Senate after it had bean
passed by the House. Now the Yer
mont House of Representatives is not
easily amenahle to party discipline
for only few of its members are
nominated and elected on party plat
forms but every senator is. In prob
ably every county convention in the
state last year resolutions were adopt
ed committing the nominees to sup
port of the state platform which in
cluded the trustee process exemption
clause. Yet wnen the senators got
to Montpelier a majority of them re-
pudiated their own promises in this
and other particulars. 1t is the opin-
ion of the Banner that the rank and
file of the voters do not pay enough
to the nominations of sena-
tors, leaving that to the politicians
while devoting their own interest
wholly 10 the representative contests.

Last spring an unfortunate thing
happened in the Remington town
meeting. The voters FROM the rural
districts failed to attend the business
TART of the meeting and the result was
that about dozen non progressive
voters were successful in reducing the
school tax OF the town district, there
by Gripping the town school board
One result is now apparent The
schoolhouse at Benaingt m Center is
in urgent need of repainting and re
pair. not only for the sake OF appear
ance but to save the property, but
with the reduced schoot tax-the school
hoard does not dare use money for thu
purpose lest il might not aAve enough
to support the schools. II is partieu-
larly important That this schoolhouse
should be as slightly as possible for
it is in the section of the town where
the summer residents and summer
visitors live, business that is grow
ing and will continue to grow If con
ditions are kept right. The town gets
a large revenue from Town Hill both
in a business way, and through taxa
ton Of valuable residence property.
IL is shortsighted business policy for
the town to let little selfish interests
interfere with the larger good of the
community The voters empowered
to vote in settling the affairs of the
rural districts should see to it that
they are at the next town meeting
and not let a dozen voters or less
hold up the general welfare of the
town especially in such an important
matter as supporting the schools As
1t now stands the town school board
may even be compelled to hire cheap
er and poorer teachers in some dis
trists to get through the coming year
which isn't a pleasant or creditable
thing to contemplate.
