The Monitor hopes for the speedy
recovery and return to work on the
Rutland Herald Of Mr.. Hindley and
sincerely hopes the report of his
leaving Vermont for journalistic work
in the west is without foundation.
Our information is from the Stan
stead Journal published in the town
where Mr.. Hindley's brother is a pas
tor. The Journal says:
Editor Howard L. Hindley of the
Rutland is in st. Luke's Hospital,
New York, convalescing from an op-
Grafton for hernia. 1t is rumorec
that Mr.. Hindley is to leave the
Herald and Vermont to become the
editor of an evening daily at Spo
kane, Washington.

The following editorial on woman g
suffrage seems so much to the point tt e
Monitor takes great pleasure in repro
ducing it. The Monitor is in favor of
votes for women when women want
to vote but does not believe in fore.
ing it upon them. Why not refer
endum in Vermont and let women de-
eide whether they want to vote or
not. The Monitor believes that
should the majority of women in this
manner show their desire to vote the
legislature would not be long in
granting the privilege.
Somebody in the New York legisIa.
ture proposes a state referendum for
women to deciae whether or not they
want the privilege of general suffrage.
Why is 1t not fair and sensible wav
to settle the whole vexed question?
Most men nowadays are quite willing
that women should vote if. as a hodv
or even as majority, Ethey really
want to. A referendum would furnish
proof that could not be controv erted-
Curiously enough, however. the
New York women suffragists are
against the proposition. They, who
desire a complete voting privilege,

Commons ense Truth.

To assume that a man of large
means cannot pursue a course entire
ly laudable in a poor man without the
questionable use of those means, is
periodically a favorite part with GER
tain Vermont newspapers and with
certain irresponsible promoters of
some other mans game.
Recently, this recurrent malady
has fixed it's insinuations. if not ar
tual culpable,attacks, upon the candi-
dacy of Lieutenant-Governo Mead for
governorship. That Doctor Mead has
lived up to the lessons taught by the
parable of the talents and, after in
dustriously disposed years, which have
been laborious far beyond those cred
liable TO most men. and now offers
himself for service in Vermont g
highest Office. causes all the dogs
that howl corruption" to run bark
ing at his heels. Some things in this
world are as they are for the same
reason that the tsetse fly exists in
Central Africa, and that deadly poison
turks under many forms everywhere,
whatever the reason may be.
i Before this thing goes any farther,
as aimed at Doctor Mead's candida
cy. would it not be we'll for the agen.
cies of jackal tendencies to make a
little more sure of the premises from
which they argue?
! In all Doctor Mead's life history. is
thel e single line of evidence con.
sstent with his debauching the voting
privilege of his fellow citizens now?
Can hint be found that be has ever
attic mpted to pervert public opinion.
or single individuals opinion for
that matter. by means of the goods
the love of which has been denomina-
ted "the root of all evil?''
Doctor Mead has been in politics be-
fore. Did he buy the honor of repre-.
senting the city of Rutland in the
legislature? Did he corrupt his neigh.
bors in order to- be senator from
Rutland county? Is he holding the
second office in the gift of the people
of Vermont now by means of pur-
chased choice?
These questions should be answered
on their merits before any conclusion
as to charges that he is a bidder in
any governorship auction is given
credence.
Doctor Mead starts his campaign
by using the best available agency
for the dissemination of knowledge
the newspaper. Instead of attempt
ing to pervert editorial voice to bis
ends. he buys space as pure advertis.

Canning Industries in Vermont.

The Free Press, which has been
seeking to promote the production of
fruit. cereals, and vegetables Tor can
ming purposes in Vermont, notes with
qualification the following editorial
paragraph in the Brattleboro Phoenix ::
1.-The corn canning industry in this
state is looking up. also. H. G. Bax-
ter and Brother of Brunswick. Me-,
who operate the canning establish
ments in Brattleboro, Westminster
and Windsor, have closed their fac :
tory in Cornish, Me-, and the machin-
cry will be moved to Bradford, VT,
where the firm recently bought
tract of land for the purpose of build
ing large factory in the spring."
In view of the superior quality and
flavor of Vermont fruit, vegetables
and corn we have been unable to
understand why most of our grocers
should be selling goods canned in
other states. The action of the con-
Germ in question in starting canning
, industry in Bradford is step in the
right direction and we hope other
localities may soon profit in like
manner.
We wish in this connection that the
consumers of Vermont would call on
their grocer for goods canned in this
| State. We would like to ask, if it is
true that the products of the concerns
in Vermont named are put up in cans
labelled as Maine product, and if sc
! if it is not time to call a halt

DISTRICT COURTS.

Believing that the pressure of ex-
pense in judicial proceedings comes
largely in the initial stages of litiga-
ton, | would favor the establisnn ent
of district courts with final jurisdic-
ton in civil cases of at least two hum
dred dollars and appellate jurisdiction
of at least $500. The nucleus of such
system is found in the municipal
courts. This system would tend to
relieve the congestion of small cases
| in the superior court, would hasten
trial and decrease the cost of obtain
| ing justice.

HIGHWAYS.

Good roads decrease the expense of
the farmer in hauling the products of
his farm, attract travel and increase
values. A trunk line system of high
ways, state controlled and maintained,
would tend to further develop the
state and would improve the cross

the start and In general way the trade
was little different from that on previous
days this week. Prices did not show as
much weakness, however, and some OF the
stuff went at figures little worse than a
shade lower. Weak to dime lower on
sheep, with lambs about steady, would
Just about cover the situation as a whole.
For the week thus far the net decline on
sheep is about SDi0c with demand de-
cidedly backward and trade very slow.
Spring lambs are selling about 25q5Oc lower
than at last weeks close
There was a fair inquiry for feeder stock
today, but II was well along in the morn
ing before trading started owing to the
delay caused by sorting and shaping up re-
ceIpts. The amount OF feeder business
transacted lately is seasonably small, but
good thin stock is safely quotable on the
