Some thoughtful Thoughts

Prof Walter E. Howard of Middlebury
College, in recent address in Barre said:
What we need in this country and at
this time is more brains and less hyster-
les; more common sense and less rant
more patriots and fewer demagogues,
more thought and less barbaric yawp.
1t is quite possible that we shall yet see
the financial theories of Oklahoma put
into practice and the sngularly simple
socialistic plan adopted of compelling the
rich and the prudent to contribute to the
losses of wildcat bankers and sage-brush
fnanciers. Between cowboy politics
and jack rabbit finance we are certainly
between the devil and the deep sea.
This continual harping on the sins Vof
the rich as if the poor had no sins; this
daily and weekly preaching against the
sins of people who are not present; this
coddling of those who have nothing and
teaching them that they have some sort
of mysterious grievance against those
who have something; this perpetual rant
against the rich and the prosperous
whose wealth and prosperity. nine times
out OF ten are the result of their own in
dustry, temperance and frugality-this
dangerous and false insnuation that the
Lord loves the poor and hates the rich
these things that come from the pulpit,
press and platform teaching, as fast as
they possibly can, the most dangerous
socialistic doctrines, setting class against
class-these are lighting fire that may
shoulder long, but will be hard to
quench.

recent re-assignment of committee ap
pointments.

important committee on Agriculture and
Forestry, and also of the Committee or

sers on Indian Lands to Standards,
Weights and Measures He is also a
member of the committees To Examine
the Several Branches of the Civil Service,

culture, Indian Affairs and Industrial Ex-
positions. The committee on Indian
Affairs has to do with important legisla-
ton touching the wards of the Nation
and is Woodworking committee.
The Senator has been given an oppor-
tunity to work, for three of his appoint
ments are to committees that afford one
all the opportunity desired for work.

A Warm Reception.

loaded" The congressman happened
to know where the young man lived
and kindly guided him home. The con.

and tall, husky woman appeared.
She never said a word, but grabbed
the young man by the collar and
shook him till she fairly loosened his
teeth; then into the hall she took him
and slammed the door.
The congressman was descending
the steps when the door was thrown
open second time, and his friend flew

Tax List ILLEGAL

In Washington county court Wednes-

jury to return a verdict for the plaintiff
in the case of David Spicer VS.. V. w.
Rand for collection of taxes and false i'm
prisonment and the matter of damages
was argued, the jury returning $50 and
costs. The case will go to supreme court
on exceptions. About two years ago
Spicer moved to Montpelier from Hard
witch and an attempt was made to tax
him in both places. He refused to pay
the Hardwick tax and was placed in jail
by Mr.. Rand, the tax collector of that
town. Spicer then paid the tax and
brought suit against Rand. 1t was
shown that the tax list was illegally
made, as the tax was not doubled and
notification sent to the delinquent as the
law provides for a failure to pay.

That popular and worldwide known
hosiery, the Equinox house at Manches-
ter this state, has just changed hands,
Messrs. p. w. & E. c. Orvis, disposing
of their interest to their brother George.
The house, which was established in 1853,
by F. H. Orvis, has always had some
member of the family at the head of it,
and it will so continue. E. c. Orvis,
mentioned above, is one of the Senators
from Bennington county and nobody at
the recent session of the Legislature was
more popular than he. Genial and good
natured all the time-even when some
things were done that he did not approve
of, he made many friends. To know him
it is easy to see wherein the Equinox
house has so many friends and why it is
so popular-it couldn't be otherwise with
E. c. connected with it.

Many are the towns in the state that

are allowed to be endangered for fear of
hurting someone's feelings. And yet, as
