We note what several exchanges have
to say regarding the enlargement of an
eight page country paper into twelve
page edition. The prevailing idea is
that it is unwarrantable in most COM
munities for the reason that the four
added pages are for the most part COM
posed of literary junk, devoid of any
merit except that they fill up space.
Quality is what readers want. Wind

Using as the Register has been doing for
the past few months it is no more than
fair to the subscribers to give them a

The city of Burlington, after much
controversy and some litigation, has
voted to buy site for public wharf at
Lake Champlain and the board of alder
men has authorized an issue of city
bonds to the amount of $27, 800 to pay
for it. 1t comes high but Burlington
needs it, and has needed it for a long
time. This will prove a distinct advan-
tage at the present time and of even
greater advantage in years to come.

Judging by the manner in which Bur-
lington citizens are taking hold of the
question of new union depot for that
city it looks as though the antiguated
structure, built a half century ago,
might be replaced within few years
by modern, up-to-date building ade-
quate to the needs of that growing city.
The old depot is not in keeping with the
progress of the times.

The governor of New York is paid
$40, 900 year and furnished an exc
cutive mansion. But it is estimated to
cost him, out of his own private pocket,
not less than twice his salary to hold his
office. Right here in Vermont for in
stance, where some people recently
made great ado because the salary of
the governor was raised from 81, 800 to
81, 500, no chief executive can begin to
''break even''. What's the result? 1t
is utterly useless for poor man to as
pire to be governor of this state. That
one of the reasons why our political
canvasses smell so badly sometimes.
What show would an ambitious and de-
serving man without money have
against some of the candidating methods
that are put out in this state? Think
it over. st. Adams Messenger.
