SOLD OUT THE PEOPLE.

In Illinois, the machine politicians
thought they knew better who should
be United States senator than the
people themselves did. At the pri-
maries preceding the meeting of the
legislature, the people of Illinois en-
dorsed a candidate for the senator
ship. This candidate did not suit the
old political ringsters and they pro-
ceeded to make a Jackpot" with
which to bride sufficient members of
the legislature to override the ex-
pressed choice of the people. They
have made pretty mess of it. They
have disgraced the good name Of
Lincoln's old state. They have helped
to confirm the impression that men,
bership in the upper branch of our
national legislature is obtained in
too many instances by mere barter
and sale. Like the political ring
sters of Colorado and New York,
they have contributed their share to
the embarrassment of the republican
party this year.
In cases of bribery, it always de-
velops that some special interest is
back of the debauching Of public
morals. Think of the state of Colo
RADIO sending a man to the United
States senate who was but a nominal
resident of the state and unknown
to the masses of its people! 1t is
such instances as this that are tend
ing to undermine the foundations of
representative government in the
United States. Public sentiment,
however, is awakening to the dan
ger and public opinion is forcing the
nomination and election of men to
membership in this distinguished
body who have other qualifications
than the possession Of long purse
or the ability to assume Punch and
Judy attitude at the behest Of pow
erful corporate interests.
The people of Washington, through
the direct primary law have the res
possibility Of electing a man to rep
resent them in the United States SEN
ate this year. They have several can
didates to choose from. 1t is the
duty of every voter to scan the quail
fications and the pretensions of each
candidate closely The state admin
istration of this commonwealth has
been disgraced in recent years by
the election of unworthy men to Of
fee. Bride takers and embezzlers,
with brazen effrontery, have sought
to cover up their shortcomings by
appeals to partisan interests. 1t is
up to the people Of this state to elect
men of integrity and fearless indie
pendence to public Office and II they
do not select satisfactory men, it will
be because they use their emotions
and not their brains to do their
thinking. Partisan appeals should
carry little weight in the face Of re-
cent instances OF wrong doing which
have been disclosed in this and other
states. In voting for United States

from New York dealers, and with the
favorable present prices for most other
farm products there is every reason
why farming in this vicinity should be
prosperous. Good dalrymen say there
are farms in this region which are
keeping half or even less than that Of
the proportion of cows to acreage
that should be maintained, and there
are those who hope for the early es-
Establishment OF a milk station at Shell
burne similar to those in operation at
Vergennes and other points along the
Rutland railroad.
1t has hitherto been urged that the
absolute sale OF milk tended to cause
farms 10 deteriorate, because young
stock was not raised and the milk fed
out in various ways. Under the new
conditions involving more modern and
thorough cultivation the number OF
cows in the dniry Is greatly Increased
and farms are rendered more fertile
and fruitful There is also a good
market for milk In burlington ard
elsewhere. and every farmer in this re-
gion should take steps to Increase the
Sine of his dairy as rapidly as pos
sible.
In the meantime II is to be hoped
that meeting Of our farmers In this
Bocoon OF Chittondcn county may be
called N the early future to see about
the location of another mill, station

Ity.

Socialism had little foothold in Ger

MODERN SMUGGLING
DIFFICULTIES of American Inspector.
Viewed from Abroad
(F'rom the London Glohc)

(FTOHl tIe l4pHCOn tiIbfc.)
Many years ago there was in Cornwall
very Interesting duck pond. In APP
peAmncc II was Il small circular basin
of water on which the ducks swan in or
binary fashion while the owner stood
and watched them with proprietary
pride. He would invite tile revenue Of
ticers to dine with him and take them
out to admire this among other attrac-
lions OF his garden. But when the excise
mon left strange tn'rg would happen.
The duck pond would swing round on a
pivot end reveal n spacious cavity be-
meath In which We're stored many kegs
Of good spirits which had never paid their
duty. Smuggling Is not conducted In this
manner now, nor are cnrgocs run during
dark nights into the coycs and caVorns
of our coasts. The risk is TOO great the
coastGuard service too thoruugh. The
smuSglers of those old romantic and UNI
scrupulous days have long lain Ia their
graves; We have become less romantic If
not more scrupulous. Eut the dc sire to
battle the customs Is by no means cX-
tinct, any more than is the wish to riake
great and speedy profits. Smuggling was
always fine art with the moro intel
ligcnt Of its votaries; 1t has become even
finer now. though perhaps few Of its de-
vic.s are more ingenious than this Cor
n.h duck pond.
In n small way many persons who
would he indignant II their honor was
questioned enjoy the pleasure of robbing
the authorities Not many visitors re-
turn from the channel Islands without
trying to bring few cigars, n little to-
hacco. bottle or two of scent, and the
adventure has mild touch Of excite
mcnt-espccially when the customs off
GERS prove keen enough TO detect II.
Sailors also are stlll inveterate SNUG
glers, and most seamen ashore seem to
have a supply of tobacco that has never
been through bond. But the average
person perhaps does more of piracy than
Of umugglng. being content 20 buy pl.
rated copies of books or music, OF which
the supply is generally equal to the de-
Innnd. This Of course Is different from
smuggling or perhaps 1t might be more
successfully dealt with. II Is the song
writer, the author who Is robbed, not
The government. But tho direct robbins
OF government still goes on merrly; and
with tho high duty on tobacco especially
this is not wonderful Such smuggling Is
said to have increased Of late years with
the rise Of the tax. Loayes Of bread.
