that the expedition with which this
matter was conducted in the Frank
lin county court from start to finish,
the absence of needless delays or
legal quibblings during the proceed
ings, the thorough-going work of the
prosecution and the no less faithful
service of the attorneys for the re-
spondent, make this case a record
breaker in the administration of
justice in northern Vermont, at
least. Judge NilIara w. Miles is to
be congratulated for his urbanity and
fairness during the whole tedious
and responsible nine days of hard
work, and for the further fact that
not an exception to his charge to
the jury was noted. Attorney-Gene
al John G. Sargent, States Attor-
ney Elmer Johnson, and Attorney
George M. Hogan, for the state, and
Attorneys Marshall H. Alexander

The Mileage Bills.

AS is well known several meas
ures looking toward the exchange
of mileage for the advertising of
railroad time tables have been in
PRODUCED in the legislature Some
of the newspaper men of the state
have been very insistent in their
advocacy of such a measure. The
editor of the Randolph Herald and
News expresses our position on this
subject so clearly that we adopt his
expression. He said:
LAS a publisher, we prefer to
deal with the railroads on a square
cash basis, paying our fare when we
travel and charging as we do others
for service given them. Not only
are we thus free from any attempt
on their part to halter our express
sions, but We are lree from the sus-
picion of any such influence, On the
part of the reading public. This
is well worth what little we sacrifice

Now What?

Jubilation is a natural ebullition
incident to victory, but it hasn't very
much within itself that is lasting.
There has been a very mild demon
stration on the part of the demo-
Gratis in this regard when one con-
siders the buster and Wanting of the
Oyster Bay Person.
The fact that the victory has been
taken so seriously simply indicates
that the people are too intent upon
what is really meant by it to spend
much time or noise in celebration.
Unusual conditions present them
selves to the next session of Con-
gfess, among which is series of re-
publican promises which found their
way Into the various messages of
President Taft by way of recon-
mendations. That is one of many of
the unfortunate legacies that must
be handled.
It will not do for the leaders of
either party merely to lay back upon
the verdict of November g.. The
American people require something
more than jubilation.
There has been long suffering toll
erance of a person who, by reason of
the fact that he served his country
in the highest capacity, sought to
bend that and other political con-
ditions to his own selfish aims.
When the American people re-
solves itself into great jury, each
member of which having in mind his
duty to the public, the verdict is
usually right.
There's a reason for it. The vic
tors, being Americans, are too mag
unanimous to dwell upon reasons;
the vanquished are too American to
do otherwise than take their medi-
cine
Will the next Congress with it's
democratic majority in the House
and it's progressive republican ele-
ment in the senate do the things that
the country cries out for?
VIII the democrats in the House
of Representatives steer things we'll
enough to prevent executive aggres-
@sion upon the functions of co-ordi-
nate branch of government?
What of the generally accepted
methods of corporation batting?
What Of the badly bolstered in
come tax amendment, even assum-
ing it gets it's quota of constitutional
votes?
What of the monetary reform that
is now engaging the attention of
bankers and capitalists no less than
the every day -depositor?
Many things may be asked; many
things have been promised; much
will be accomplished; possibly not
in the way sought for, but still ac-
complished.
The country will continue to go
on and the people will settle down
to work with hatchets buried

New Hotel on Mount Washington.

1t will be good news to everyone
who loves the mountains to learn
that decision has been reached by
those who have the authority so to
do, to erect on the summit of Mount
Washington a hotel of good pro-
portions. The plans have not yet
been formulated, save that it shall
even the material has been decided
upon. The proposition to build it
of the stone of which the top is COM
posed has not seemed to be practi-
cable, while the cost of a concrete
structure capable of withstanding
the enormous range of temperature
to which it will be subjected put this
in question, if indeed the material
should prove itself suited to such a
situation. 1t is most probable, there
fore, that it will be of wooden
construction, and work on the frame
may go on during the winter. 1t
will be impossible to have a complet-
ed hotel ready before the middle of
next season, but those who know
Mount Washington Will welcome it
at any time. The practical impossi-
bility of spending night on the
summit has been felt by many dur
ing the past three years yet there has
been good demand for the few rooms
afforded by old Tiptop House and for
the beds in the loft over the coach
office. 1t has seemed pity that on
the mountain top most resorted to
in the east there should have been
practically no Accommodations for the
traveller, not even sanitary con-
veniences of decent character, when
in Europe the mountain sides sprout
each year funicular railways of
which this one IN Mount Washing
ton was the great original, and the
Alps are peppered with hotels, the
number of which increases year by
year. 1t has seemed a pity for the
top of Mount Washington to have as
it's chief feature shop for the sale
of tourists souvenirs, and mountain
lovers will with one accord welcome
the new hotel.-[From the Noun
aineer in the Boston Transcript.

PRESS COMMENT.
University and its Funds.

The biennial report of the Univer-
sity of Vermont, just issued in
pamphlet form, contains some in
teresting figures, furnished by the
treasurer, Charles P. Smith. 1t APP
pears that the University's assets are
about $650,000, divided as follows:
investments, loans, stocks, and
bonds, $516, $50; leased land $780,
600; income producing property,
1900. The income of the Uni
versity last year was $166,747,
while the expenses were 1880
larger. OF the income, $4,000 came
from the United States and 5000
from the state. The income from the
invested funds was only $27,856
Tuition fees from students formed
the largest single item, $58,000.
Of the expense, $106,443 went for
salaries, and $4,000 for mainte-
nance of buildings, administration
departments, labor salaries, etc. For
the Experiment station, $4,000 was
received from the United States, and
the same amount paid OUT Bur-
nngton News.

q revenues. .

IN revenues.
AS to the bill to compel railroads
to advertise their time tables in the
weekly and daily newspapers we are
not certain whether the state has the
power to compel the railroads to
do such thing or not Claims are
made both ways but we are not able
to interpret the constitution. We
do believe however that the rail-
roads might gain enough in the
way of public appreciation to pay
them to insert their time tables in
the local papers. OF course the
publication of ume tables would not
increase the amount of local travel
but it does seem reasonable that the
people of Vermont have a SCHEDULE
of train service for convenient refer
ence. If such reasonable demand
as this was granted it might remove
some of the prejudice that is now
felt against the railroads and en-
gender kindlier spirit on the part
of the public. 1t was niggardly
policy on the part of the railroads
to withdraw the time tables from
the newspapers simply because the
public insisted on its rights in some
other directions.

STATE BOARD OF TRADE.
Meeting Held in Montpelier and
Committee Appointed.

Committee Appointed.
An enthusiastic public meeting
was held in Montpelier last
Wednesday evening to organize a
State Board of Trade. Elk Gov.
Prouty called the meeting to order.
Gov. Mead was elected chairman and
L. M. Hays, of Burlington, secretary
of the meeting. The project was
favored by Gov. Mead, Ex-Gov. G.
Fl. Prouty, Fred E. Gleason, Maxwell
Evarts, J. w. Hanley, A. M. Fletcher,
Lieut.. Gov. Slack, Mason S. Stone,
Sen. Barden, and others. The sums
of SIS and $40 were mentioned as
fees. It was then moved that the
temporary organization be continu-
ed until such a time that perma-
nent organization can be perfected.
Fred A. Howland made the motion
that a committee of five with Ex-
Gov. Prouty as chairman be appoint
ed to see to the permanent organi-
zation of the Vermont Board of
Trade and the meeting adjourned.
Gov Mead appointed the follow
ing members of the committees:
Ex-Gov. George H. Prouty of New
port, chairman, A. M. Fletcher of
Cavendish, H. o. Carpenter of Rut-
land, P. H. Dale of Island Pond and
j. A. DeBoer of Montpelier. This
committee met and formulated plans

An Educational SUGGESTION.

Evidently this legislature is deter
garding the educational system of
the state and we believe thus far it
has proceeded along right lines.
There is however g possibility that
an expensive error may be made in
regard to the establishment of a CEN
trail state normal school. The state
must have one but do the legislators
know what the entrance require
ments should be, what equipment is
needed, the necessary cost of it and
where it should be located. We con-
fess that we have been impressed
with the wisdom of a suggestion that
1t is time to be cautious and au-
thorize the appointment of COM
mission of three of five members
composed of men above the dictates
of politics, give them authority to
pay clerical assistance and their nee
essary expenses and let them fully
investigate the subject of state
normal school system. Have them
publish their report by the first of
May 1912 SO the public may fully
consider their findings and recon-
mendations before the next legis-
lature sits and then take final action
in the matter This might prevent
the expenditure of a large sum of
money in a mistaken way and really
benefit the state to a much greater
amount than it's cost.

The AveriH Case.

"Last Monday the trial of Mrs.
Frank C. Averil1, of ST. Adams,
charged with the murder of her hus-
band on October 20, was begun in
Franklin county court On Sept
ember 10 William Heath was shot
and killed in the home of Mrs. Mar
shall J. Dodge in Lunenburg. Mrs.
Dodge was arrested on the charge of
murder in the first degree and re-
leased on bail, one term of county
court has been held and she has not
been formally arraigned on the
charge and it is announced she
probably will not be tried at the Tan
uary term. 1t looks as though it
made considerable difference which
part of the state person lives in
about the way the charge of murder
is handled and we think the Frank
lin county way is much more creolt-
able to the state as a whole. rs st.

The Open Deer Season.

After the large amount of atten-
ton given this subject in the legis-
lature we would like to offer a few
suggestions about the open season
for deer. First the returns for the
past two open seasons show that
the shooting of both sexes of deer
is depicting the stock of deer too
fast to ensure the continuance of
the sport for a very long period.
Under the old law which allowed
the shooting of bucks only the
stock of deer increased but under
the present law it is decreasing.
These results argue in favor of the
old law
The results of the season just
closed seem to disprove the old
claim that the shooting of bucks
alone would create a predominance
of does and restrict the natural in
crease of deer. For about ten years
the shooting of bucks has been al
lowed and the doe protected. The
first season that the shooting of
both sexes was allowed there were
a few more doe than bucks shot,
due doubtless to the fact that the
protection of doe had made them
more tame and easy to shoot. This
season however there were two or
three hundred more bucks than doe
shot This would indicate that
the shooting of bucks alone in years
previous had not seriously reduced
their number. This is another
argument in favor of the old law.
The length of the open season
for shooting bucks should be chang
ed as matter of justice to the
hunter who is required to pay
license. New Hampshire and Maine
give longer open seasons and Yer
mont should do so as a square deal
to the hunter. With the opportuni-
ty to shoot restricted to one sex of
deer a longer season should be
given as the hunter now pays for
the privilege of shooting and past
experience shows that the stock of
deer will not be depleted by it.
Justice to both deer and hunters
requires a longer open season. with
only one week for shooting the
woods are so full of hunters that
they are a menace to each other.
While deaths from stray bullets
have not been numerous the danger
from them would be reduced by
giving the hunters longer time in
which to crafty their desire to
hunt Under present conditions
the deer do not have a fair chance
because the filing of the woods
with hunters from one end of the
state to the other gives them no
place for hiding or protection. With
hunters in or near all their haunts
the deer are kept constantly on the
move and their exposure increased.
There is no rest for them inside the
state and there is the possibility
that they may be driven to some
extent into other states and we lose
some of the benefits our protection
is supposed to give.
The reasons given above lead us
to believe the changes suggested
would be desirable. They might not
all work out as we expect but it
does seem as though they would
tend to make the hunting of deer
more safe, more sportsmanlike
and at the same time not seriously
deplete the stock of deer in the
state.

The Direct Primary.

The direct primary is gaining in
strength and favor in all sections of
the country in spite of the fact that
it is opposed by political machines
and Office holders. No state that
tried it has word to say against it,
but everywhere the demand for it
becomes more and more expressive.
