III was highly improper for farmer

had been, but the occupants were I'M

It is perhaps not generally known that
the colors Of no Vermont regiment in

lively says that their colors were saved
from capture by a thoughtful ruse on
the part Of the Vermonters About to be
taken, the officers shredded the flag, each
taking a bit Of It and thus saving the
colors.
unquestionably, Vermont is the only
state furnishing troops in the union

The reports emanating from the rail-
road headquarters in st. Adams, stating
that there has been Slight trouble in
Barre, together with trouble in Burling
ton and st. Adams, seems to have come
out Of whole cloth, as there has been
no semblance Of trouble in Barre thus
far, growing out Of the railroad strike
on the Central Vermont and the Grand
Trunk railroads. The nearest approach
to trouble was when strikebreakers
were requested to change their boarding
places; but that can scarcely be eonsid-
cred more than trivial incident.

The AutomoblIe cIab Year Rook.


The Automobile club Of Vermont has
published for its members the 1910 year
book, containing ia convenient, tabuiated
form mass Of information Of great i'm.
portance to owners Of automobiles. In
the preface it is stated that, according to
the articles Of incorporation, the Auto
mobile club Of Vermont was formed 10
protect the interests Of the owners and
users Of automobiles against unjust and
unreasonable legislation, 20 maintain the
lawful right Of owners and users Of aus
tomobiles, to promote and encourage the
improvement Of the highways and gen.
orally to maintain q social club devoted
to automobilism. To this work we have
added the erection IF danger signs. The
average motorist IN Vermont is unaware
how far the Improvements in our hign
ways and the moderation Of the discrim-
mating features Of the early laws have
been brought about by the earnest work
Of the members Of this club. The nat
ural beauties Of Vermont in summer are
admitted to be rarely equalled. The nat
ural road ballding materials in the state
are better than in most any other state
in the union
This little booklet would seem To be
indispensable to every owner or prospect
i've owner Of an automobile, the number
of whom ID rapidly increasing The club
has done d good work III this publication
and apparently is q good institution for
anyone owning a registered car to join

The Railroad Strike.

We are 10 accustomed to swift and
easy transportation from place to place,
at any time and everywhere, that peo.
pie in general do not realize what a
railroad strike means until the wheels
of the trains suddenly cease to revolye.
So intimately is the railroad connected
with all the activities of modern life,
that the moment it comes 10 a pause
the whole fabric Of society Is affected
by it. Under such conditions rail
road strike Is greatly to be deploreo.
Only in the last analysis, if ever, should
it be resorted to, and all parties con-
eerned should make eeaseless efforts to
speedily bring it TO an end The strike
oh the Grand Trunk and Central YER
mont roads comes close home to us, and
win Be felt throughout the state in all
thc avenues Of business. 1t is hoped
that il will not be long continued, that
calmness and good Judgment viii pre-
vail in ali deliberations of the contend
ing parties, and especially that we shalf
lie spared the exhibitions Of violence
and destruction Of property that have
attended such labor struggles IN other
parts Of the country It is to be TAX.
en for granted that both parties in the
controversy desire only that which IS
lust and right, and on that ground it
ought to be easy TO arrive at a speedy
and satisfactory settlement of the mat
ter. Rutland Herald.
