The Englishmas's Glory.

I've met him here dozen times. I've
met him in Quebec,
His name is legion up in Montreal,
I've met him In railway train and on
a steamer deck,
I've even met him at a game OF ball.
I've seen his gray eyes sparkle when
he learned my occupation
And found that | had often covered
crimes;
And knew that he would tell me with
a lengthy explanation
That he'd "h'often written for the
London Times
He's as numerous and certain as the old
subscriber type
Who has read your paper now for
forty years;
II he's English you can wager, as be
fills his briar pipe
He will pour this little story in your
ears.

It's a browning glory to them, it's the
common English boast.
For it makes the British chest expand
with pride;
It's the one achievement truly that they
talk about the most,
It's the link that binds them to the

Discrimination Alleged.

How did it happen that the Vermont
state fair was able to get better rates
over the Central Vermont railroad this
year than any other fair in this section
Tickets from Ricnford to White River
Junction and return were advertised for
sale at $3.50 The distance between
these points is l40 miles, making the
rate in this particular case about half
cent mile. From other points on the
Central Vermont road, the rate was
practically the same. The Reformer
finds no fault because this low rate was
made the state fair management, but
it docs claim that other fairs should
have been able to make equally salts
factory arrangements with the Central
Vermont road, The best rate the Val
ley fair management could make with
the G. V. people Appropriated almost
three times as much per mile as that
which the state fair had. And at that
Brattleboro's three days attendance was
very close to the number that actually
visited White River Junction on four

Vermont's population Of 355,056 by
The census Of 1910, indicates slight.
III accelerated growth over the decade
1890 1900, but, as compared with the
rest OF New England, the state is al.
most at a standstill. When Vermont
came belated into the Union in 1871,
she was, in effect, frontier state, and
as such she had within the next thirty
years her period of relatively rapid
growth. Soon after that period ner
speed slackened, until at length she
reached about forty years ago the con-
dition Of almost imperceptible growth
now again called to public attention by
the census takers. Between 1880 and
1890. Vermont gained less than $50 in
habitants Since that time she has
slightly increased ner pace, and it is
not impossible that the movement back
to the land that New England now be-
gins to feel, will within the next two
decades make her again one of the grow
ing states. OF course, Vermont's con-
dition has never been one of decadence,
She has steadily sent her young men
and women to Boston, to New York and
TO the West, and ner population has
been maintained by immigration. She
has now just under thirty-nine iRhab-
itants to the square mile. Thirty years
ago nearly one-ffth Of her voters were

foreign born to natives must be far
larger now than then, yet Vermont re-

which declared the state looked too pros.
porous to be on the decline. Because
of that position, the contemporary may
be pardoned for a slightly yelled I-told-

"The Vermont statistics reveal what
every traveller through the state must

of population, and the high price OF

The decline, or stagnation, of rural
population having been quite general
throughout the country, Vermont is led
to the belief that just as soon as the
'back to the soil" inclination shall have
become more pronounced the rural Yer.
mont will reap its proportionate gain
with the remainder of the country, per.
haps more than its proportionate gain,
because of the splendid chances for ag.
pursuits in the state and so
near the great markets of the country.
Meanwhile the manufacturing side OF
the state may be expected to continue
a steady development to offset the pres
ent loss in the agricultural side.

OVERRIDING THE GLoRIFIcATIoN

When good man does enter politics,
it raises a terrible clamor af approval,
and the ready writer's and the glib
speakers pounce upon the occasion to
laud the man to the skies for his hardi-
hood. That is the case with President
Woodrow Wilson of Princeton miver-
sity, who was recently nominated by
the Democrats for governor of New Jer-
sey. Since he accepted the nomination,
President Wilson's ears have been bonn
barded with fattery, and the plain, ordi-
nary people OF New Jersey must be
thinking that he is too godlike to be
one of them and, therefore, too far above
the office which is in their gift The
New York Globe and Commercial well
says that "if his popularity survives this
angel chorus, the New Jersey Democrats
have indeed found a political treasure"
II is too bad for capable, though hu.
man, man like President Wilson to be
beaten by the unwise fattery Of his
friends. If they care for his political
welfare, they viii cease their extollling
to the skies as man of superlative
virtues and dwell more at length on his
business ability.
