1t looks as if filial affection was drifting
farther and farther apart between Public
Service Commissioner Redmond and the
State Press.
State Highway Commissioner Gates
was present Thursday at meeting of
the highways committee, when highway
matters in general were under discussion.
The bill to do away with county road SUI
pervisors was taken up and opposed by
Mr.. Gates, who thoughts great deal of
good came through these officials.
The general committee gave hearing
Thursday on the bill introduced by Mr..
Clark Of Morristown providing bounty
ON porcupines. This should not be con-
founded with any hedgehog legislation
that was made so much sport of at the
last session. AS a matter of fact Mr..
Clark says there is not hedgehog in the
state ofVermont, but there are porcupines
which is the real name of the little pests
that do so much damage. The testimony
before the committee was all in fav of
80 or 40 cents on the animals. The i'm
mense damage done to young timber by
the porcupine was pointed out and Sena-
tor Daniels of Washington county told
the committee that 100000 a year
would not cover it. 1t is evident by the
earnestness with which the speakers went
at the matter that they regarded it OF
Importance and that any time taken up
by the legislature in such legislation
would not by any means be wasted.

The Cost of Living

Secretary Wilson, in recent speech, is
quoted as having said that he could SEE
no hope for any reduction in the cost O
agricultural food products. He did not
infer that prices would go higher; he
simply doubted return to lower level
The prime cause of this he ascribed to the
constant increase in population, keeping
pace with agricultural development.
The Secretary's reasoning is further
borne out by the current reports of the
census results. The census bureau rates
the increase in the larger cities "phenom.
inally high" This leads to the conclusion
that the foodconsumers are gaining more
rapidly in numbers at present than are
the food producers. At the same time in
creased profits spur production and the
farmers of the country are extending their
average acreage and are raising more
cattle to keep pace with the growing
population, giving some assurance at
least of no further serious advances in
food products.

This is Ladies' week and every member
seems to have brought his women folks
to enjoy the festivities and TO take in the
Governors Ball which is really the social
function of the year. 1t will be in order
to take up the woman's suffrage bill this
week so that the LADIES may know inst
who their champions feally are. Prob.
ably Mr., Fletcher really Believes in his
measure because he is not man who
does much for show and he does not take
up the time of the session in matters
which are not worth while. The suffrage
leader, known as annette" has been
here week, and through her subtle
charms has no doubt made many con
verts to her faith,
The past week has shown that the
House at least has some respect for the
reports OF the respective Committees and
have thus far sustained the Committee in
every case, killing what the Committee
said ought to be killed and passing what
the Committee said ought to be passed.

Quick justice is that which they have
over in England. DR.. Crippen, the Amer.
lean dentist charged with the murder Of
his wife, had his trial last week On
Tuesday the case was commenced and on
Saturday, in just five days, he was con-
victed of the crime and sentenced to be
hung Nov. Sth. Surely the wheels OF
justice move swiftly in Great Britain.
Less than a week was devoted to the
trial of one of the most celebrated cases
in the annals of the kingdom. Such swift
legal vengeance is a certain determent to
crime, The defendant was assured of
every legal right, but no brain storm ex-
perts obscured the main issue, which was
simply whether or not he committed the
crime as charged
