The Grand Trunk Extension.

The proposition to provide the Grand
Trunk with an ocean terminal at Proyi-
denCe. r. l., in addition to those in opera
ton at New London, Conn, and Portland.
Me, is attracting wide attention, and In
cidentally the discussion illustrates wnat
is IN name. The New York Post m
this connection says:
The suggestion that the Grand Trunk
system be extended by continuing the
Central Vermont line from Palmer, Mass,
to Providence r. l., is an interesting one
and contains many possibilities that may
benefit Vermont. II is evident that such
route would be a rival OF the New
Haven system, and the Hartford, Comm
Times calls attention to the fact that the
Central Vermont is dependent on the
Boston Il Maine. controlled by the New
Haven, for traffic facilities between
Windsor and Brattleboro, a distance OF
fifty miles. This fact may play an i'm
portant part in the matter The Grand
Trunk now owns and leases 1866 miles OF
road, and when the Grand Trunk Pacific
is completed it will be one Of the great
est Of American railroads, and able 10
divert large amount OF freight traffic TO
the proposed Providence terminal big
fight may be expected over the granting
Of a franchise by the Rhode Island leg
islature."
II We remember correctly the Boston
& Maine Is also dependent upon the
Central Vermont for a considerable dis
tarce in the Connecticut valley for the
use Of trackage, so that the New Haven's
new system cannot tell the Central Yer
mont to get off the track without re-
ceiving a retort in kind. Railroads are
not biting off their own noses these days
as rule.
What the contemporary says regard
ing the importance Of the Grand Trunk
system is true, and II the wise policy
President Hays is institutng in fighting
for better service and lower rates for
the people is continued pers1stently. II

It is not northern New England alone
that is buried under an unusually heavy
blanket of snow this winter In the Ad-
irondacks in New York, as in the Berk-
shire hills in Massachusetts, hunters and
other residents believe that there must be
a widespread loss of wild animal life, in
Guiding partridges, quail and other game
birds, rabbits and other fur bearing ami
mails because so many OF these must be
deprived of their usual food or be buried
under the snow and unable to escape.
with greater or less severity these con-
dttions prevail clear across the whole
western country-and as far south as Mis-
souri,, and even in Texas, there has been
an unusual amount Of snow. Word comes
that in the foothills Of the Nevada noun
tains, and in the other great sheep grow
ing sections Of the far west the sheep
are dying by the thousand because of
the deep SHOWS. 1t is doubtless true that
here in this section Of the Connecticut
valley ana on the hills around there has
not been SO much snow on the ground at
any one time since the blizzard of March

The annual town elections are close
at hand. There is one set of officers to
the election of which too little attention
is paid. We refer TO the petit jurors
selected by each town. 1t is of the ut
most Importance that men OF sound
judgment and sterling integrity be des-
ignated as jurors Juries have the most
important duties to perform in the
working out OF our system of juris-
prudence. Cases which come before
them involve the taking away from our
citizens of life or liberty, or the taking
OF the property Of one litigant and turn
ing II over to another. The taking of
life, liberty or property depends upon
the verdict of the jury. Therefore. 1t
should always speak the trutn-the
absolute truth. The facts found by
jury cannot be revised by a higher jud-
icial power. II the court makes an error,
that error can be corrected upon an ap-
peal, hut there is no appeal from the
findings of fact by jury. Therefore,
the citizens of each town should ex-
ercise extreme care in the selection of
jurors. The best men should be selected,
and the best men should serve. There
is a tendency on the part of men OF
business to avoid jury duty. They seem
to forget that their public duty is of
more Importance, in fact, than the
demands of their personal business
Every case should be decided upon its
merits. The tricks of lawyers in the
manipulation of iuries are varied Some
lawyers VINO are lacking in professional
ethics and personal honesty try to work
themselves into the good graces of Jurors
through personal contact and an as
sumed interest in the juror his family
and his business. For the protection
5f litgants and of that system whcn
stands as the strong bulwark OF our
W. IN haV
strong honest men sit in the jury seats.
Men who have the ability and the fear
lessness to decide right every time: men
who are strong enough not to be in
fiuenced by the willy schemes OF unscrup-
ulous attorneys.

OUR HIGHWAYS.

Whatever action is taken next Tuesday
in the election of a road commissioner
the fact ought not to be overlooked by any
voter that under John p. Sargent's ad-
mnIstration the policy has been pursued
Of building sections Of absolutely perna-
nent highway AT places both in this VIII
Iage and on the country roads where they
were most needed. In this way low places
have not only been filled and grades i'm
proved. but some Of the worst mud holes

or Vital Importance to New England

All New England is vitally interested
IN the Weeks bill now before Congress
for the preservation of the White Noun
tain forests and incidentally of the forests
Of the whole Appalachian region. Their
preservation vitally affects the mainten-
ance OF stream flow in the larger rivers
Of New England, which prove the chief
source Of power for mills and factories
in which $3.50, 600 600 are invested. The
American Forestry association, the Bos-
ton Chamber of Commerce, and a large
number of commercial and agricultural
organizations, are united in the effort TO
impress on Congress the desire OF the
bill passed. The duty OF every public
spirited citizen of New England is to
impress upon his representative in Con
gress the strength of the public senti-
ment in favor Of this measure.-t Boston

A Few Facts Concerning the Road Com,

The fact that Mr.. Sargent has given
the town more improved highway than
any predecessor, and has given general
satisfaction outside the village, no one
who is at all cogniZant of the real con-
ditions will attempt to deny, and the
fact that he is not teasing for the job,
but is willing to continue the good work
if it is the towns wish, is another point
in his favor. The fact that he has not
satisfied the village in the matter OF
sidewalks (although il is conceded that
the main streets were never kept cleaner
or freer of filth and rubbish) empha-
sizes another fact-that Brattleboro
needs and ought to have two road com
missoners, one for the outside or town
district and one for the village district.
Now we cannot afford to progress back
ward in this important matter, so let's
get together" next Tuesday and reflect
Mr.. Sargent for the town district and an
other capable and efficient man for the
village.

The only country with which a like
agreement has not been reached is
France. and in this case neither party
appears to feel any very deep concern.
our importations from France are main
ly of hgn-priced luXuries, such as wines
and silks, and the French believe, as We
could not or would not buy them any
where else. that high duties will not hurt
their trade while they wish to collect
the most revenue they can from impor-
tations from the United States. There
are no sentimental considerations here
upon either side, but the probability is
that the traditional sentiment Of amity
will at least prevent any disturbing dis
agreement.
