This forceful utte1ance was made hast

"Sound Judgment must predoninate.
False reports OF evil suggestions have
not been justified by any aeion either

Mr. Cannon, who spoke frSt, said that

Mayor Mutch Contributes A Good Word
for B. & M. Traction Company.

for B. & N. Traction Company.
Editor, Barro Daily Times In your is-
sue Of July Is, you state that ethe
people Of Barre and Montpelier have
reason TO thank the Barre board Of
trade presumably for the promise made
BY the Barre and Montpelier Traction
company to furnish better cars and aho
for the eastern extension to be made
on Washington street, Barre.
There is no doubt that we are all
proud Of the splendid work that fhe
Barre board 81 trade has accomplished
lusng the little over a year that il
has been in existence, ani, while We are
aware that the members Of the same
are not expecting 70 be thanked for
their work, Il is only right that we
should show our appreciation. 80 IS 70
help along the good work commenced
But. in all fairness 70 the manage-
mrnt Of the Barre and Montpelier Trar-
tion company they should also receive
httle oi the appreciation Of the pub
lie. which they are trying to accommo-
date, and. while not detraciing from
the results Of the agitation by the Barre
board Of trede for better service ard
accommodation on the electric road IL
would only seem fair chat the manage
mcnt Of the electric road should share
In the good approval of The pubic in

even though the request had 70 he made
by our board of trade.
As for the estersian on Washington
street. we haKe set - learn chat the
board of trade eser made t1i request
for same. nor has the city Of Barre made
the request. but a few re redents in that
district asked that lie tracks be ex-
tended. when the permanent street II
made in that section OF the cSty, and
the management of the electric road has
literally offered 10 make said extension
which will not only mean an added con-
yenisnce 10 the public but a great saw
ing 70 the ahutters and also 10 the city
of Barre. 10 TIE construction Of the
street, and be sle neans Of great inn
proyement All around
This action, Is web az the furnishing
OF new cars. Is only in line with the
methods of the management Of ihe
road, insofar as the writer ever bad any
experience with the company, under its
new management. % da whatever i, pos
sible IN very prompt manner, when
their attention is drawn to the mat
ter.
These being facts, It would only seem
fair that. while we feel grateful to the
payrn hoard III trade for reai4egtinv nesv
cars, Ne should also feel grateful to
the electric company for complying with
the request, without requiring force to
bear on them also for the proposed
extension on Washington street, at the
request Of few residents in that Sec
ton of the city, thereby helping ont the
city in much needed improvement, said
extension being practically Of no pc.
cumary benefit to the railroad com
