ENTERED INTO REST.
In Memory of Mrs. Louise Jane
Williamson

The community was saddened by the
sudden calling away of Mrs. Williamson
on the first of the present February
She was attacked with pneumonia, from
which she gained no relief and after six
days illness she passed away.
Mrs. Louise Jane Williamson. wife Of
Eison p. Williamson of Middlebury,
was born in Salisbury on the 18th of
January, 1916, daughter of Lucius S.
and Fannie E. Champion: her father was
for many years sheriff of this county
her mother still survives at the age of
50 years. Mrs. Williamson married her
husband, who survives her, about year
after he was mustered out of his long
service in the Civil War, in July, 1863
lhey have two children, Abraham l.. of
Middlebury and Fannie E.. wife of
Flynn G.. Austin, who resides in New
York City.
Mrs. Williamson lived with her fam
lily in Middlebury ever after her mar
riage, except nine years ending in April,
1905, when they lived on the farm in
Salisbury decided to them by the late
David ingalls,, and now called Ingallside.
She nursed and cared for her father and
for Mrs. Ingalls,, as long Ms they lived.
Her mother has been in her care for
forty years, and is now, although broken
physically, clear in her mind, at four
score and fifteen, owing largely to the
tender and efficient care of her daughter
now gone.
Mrs. Williamson has long been good
Christian and faithful member of the
Protestant Episcopal church of Middle
bury, which was filled at her funeral on
the 4th inst. despite the prevailing snow
storm. She was a charter member of
Russell Circle No. s. Ladies of the Grand
Army of the Republic, at Middlebury
and at the end was a vice president of
the Circle. She was long a member of
the relief committee of the Circle, and
none was more willing and active than
she. In this connection, in connection
with the church, and in other ways, she
was noted for her constant works of ac
tivity in assisting the poor and suffering
and scattering sunshine where the clouds
lay heavy. She was devoted daughter,
wife and mother. She was good chris
tian, a constant friend of those in trouble.
She has now gone to her rest and re-
ward, leaving multitude of friends
who may:
Tresd the paths she trod, replete
With tender memories and sweet,
Sad traces of the Masters feet.

casualties due to speed violation, can ex-
press itself in no uncertain manner on
this matter of the right of the public
to come and go safely in its highways.
The moral effect of the mere existence
of such bureau would, in my opinion.
be of great and lasting benefit to the
community.
Therefore, in order to protect the in
terests of the people, it would be es-
sential that the Deputy Assistant Dis
trict Attorneys assigned to the proposed
bureau be men of experience, honesty
and in possession of considerable pro-
fessional skill, and in order to retain
such counsel for the people it is but
wise economy that their salaries be
commensurate with the responsible
character of their duties.
Il believe that the work of this bu-
reau, along the lines above stated
would be sufficiently effective to justify
its existence, and | therefore respect
fully request that the appropriation be
granted. New York World.

Danish the Smoking Autoi

1t may be set down as general truth
that IN world oversuppled with un-
necessary things few things are more
unnecessary than automobile smoke.
This being the case, there ought to be
no need of Health Board campaign
against the blue fumes of misused gas
oline. Since the need has arisen, the
campaign should be prompt and de-
cisive. That a committee of disting-
uished physicians urges action on behlf
of the threats and the nasal membranes
of the community is an added incentive
to official zeal. We know now that the
fumes are dangerous as well as dis
agreeable.
There is the shining example of the
park authorities success in keeping
smoking autos away from the city park

Senatorial Repartee.

Once in the senate chamber John J.
ingalls, was directing some remarks to
Senator Hoar of Massachusetts. The
other senator from that state, Mr.
Dawes, having come in while Mr.. In
gals was speaking, thought the words
were meant for his ear, and so, inter
rupting, he asked ingalls, if he was di-
recting the remarks at him. The Kan
Bas senator turned slowly around, for
Mr.. Dawes sat behind him, and then,
with delicious intonation, but an in
slant wit, he said, II was directing
my remarks TO the successor of Charles
Sumner and not to the successor OF
Daniel Webster"
The repartee has become traditional.
and the utterance was at once placed
alongside of that reply of Conkling
TO Senator Thurman, which is also
traditional in the senate chamber
Conkling was speaking, and Thur
man had said, interrupting him, docs
the senator aim his remarks at me;
he constantly turns to me?" when Mt.
Conkling, with delicious gravity, bow
Ing to Thurman, with whom he was
very friendly, said: when l turn to
the senator l turn as the Mussulman
turns TO Mecca; turn as l would turn
to the common law OF England-the
worlds most copious fount Of juris-
prudence"

the amount of money he will spend in
trying to capture the prize.
The condit ion that confronts the re-
publican party in Vermont is not new
and Dr. Mead is by no means the first
aspirant for gubernatorial honors who
has been willing to pay handsomely for
the privilege of serving the state as
its chief executive. This method of
conducting a campaign was first in evil
dence, to this generation at least in the
old third district fight, when Bradley
Barlow ran for Congress as bolter
against the regular nominee, Gen. w.
w. Grout. From that time on there
have been several campaigns, in
which the ability to finance the ex-
penses of fierce contest was the de-
termining factor.
1t is not necessary to give detailed
account of all these contests. Suffice
to say that the one we are about to en-
gage in is no different from what we
have heretofore passed through. The
question is how long can Vermont keep
on in this way and maintain her self res
pect? tits very well for the people of this
commonwealth to hold up their
hands in holy horror and denounce
the corruption of other states and
for the Vermont press to applaud the
crusades for good government going
on in New York, Pennsylvania,
California, Colorado and in fact nearly
all the states of the Union; yet the fact
remains, whether we like to face it or
not, that in this particular Vermont is
not great ways removed from Dele
ware as being "rotten borough. To
be sure there is no man that repres-
ents Addicks, but we have several
men who have employed Addicks
methods in carrying their points.
Believing that it is the duty of the
press of Vermont to take positive
position in this matter, the Standard
will be emphatically opposed to a
continuation of these methods, and
what influence it has will be exerted,
as opportunity offers, in favor of
candidates with clean records at
home and who are not compelled to
depend upon lavish expenditure of
money to assure their success in obtain
ing the nomination.
For this reason we are against the
nomination of DR.. Mead At the
same time we propose to treat him
fairly, basing our opposition entirely
upon the methods he is employing and
trying to show that personally he is not
the proper man to occupy the high
office of governor Enosburg Stand

Protest AGAINST Auto Smoke.

New York, Feb. a. -Automobiles that
move through the city streets leaving
long trail of smoke behind them have
come under the ban of the National
Highway Protective Association to the
extent that the association has sent a
communication to the President of the
Board of Health, DR.. Lederle, asking
him to have a law enacted making it
criminal for this sort of thing to con-
tinue. The association has enlisted the
services of a number of New York
physicians, who assert that smoke from
automobiles is injurious to the health of
the people of the city. With the letter
goes a petition signed by some promi-
nent physicians Troy Times.

Light on certain cold storage prac-
tees was furnished in the revelations
in New Jersey, where the Grand Jury
of Hudson County is making an inves-
tigation. A look about one of the plants
revealed half million pounds of beef,
and many tons of mutton, lamb, pork,
poultry, butter and other articles. 1t is
stated further that the stored stock was
frozen hard, and was coated with ice,
showing it had been on deposit in that
place for months. The meats "were a
solid sheet" and the other things in
corresponding condition. Possibly there
might be no deterioration in quality as
a result of such storage, but undeniably
most persons prefer fresher food thar
can be obtained in this wry. And the
most significant development was the
explanation of the superintendent OF
the plant when asked why the stock had
been kept so long. ut is held in anti
cipation of trade requirements, he re-
piled. That is, the stuff was stored
away until the price could be forced up
to figures satisfactory to the holders.
Unless all indications fall, that sort of
imposition on the public is going to be
made more difficult hereafter. Troy

Foster on Cannon.
From Tie EuosbuIg siandard.l

from llt I4LOSDulE StdnuiIu
1t is with deep qualification that the
Standard notes the bold stand taken by
Congressman d. J. Foster in his public
declaration that Cannon must go and
that the old triumvirate, known as the
committee on rules, must give way to
younger blood. Congressman Foster
voices the sentiment of Vermont accur-
ately and it is evidence of his mental
acumen and political sagacity when he
thus anticipates the political situation.
He unquestionably represents not only
the sentiment of large majority of the
republicans of the first district but of
the entire State. He has helped to deal
Cannonism a staggering blow.

thence to embark in the boat and fol-

to some of the Greenland settlements

abundant, and the sick men were so
