delayed tribute to the men who have
given their services to the country,
More than thirty years ago the town
authorized the erection of monument
to the soldiers. Then it restricted the
cost to $4,000 and for several years
there were reports and questions, but
all ended in wind. The matter has
been brought up from time to time
since then. Permission has been Sc
cured from the State for the erection
of "a monument on the State land adj
joining the Pavilion. But nothing de-
finite has ever been done, and | cannot
learn that the matter ever progressed
to the extent of securing designs for
such a monument. The younger gen.
Grafton feels that this memorial room
is the first move made by the city to-
ward recognition of the old soldiers
while in fact it is only carrying out in
different form promise made long
ago

arrived the last course, consisting in
the first place of thrushes in pastry
stuffed with raisins and nuts. Then

The law requires that all property
shall be set in the list at it's own true
value in money. The real estate o.
Vermont is assessed at about 20 per
cent of its value. The real estate oc
Montpelier is probably not above the
average in the State. If this valuation
were increased 80 per cent to make
the assessment comply with the law.
there would be no occasion to worry
about the tax rate. Most property
owners would rather have true valu-
alton than high tax rate.

Charter provisions were made for
the protection of the people, after an
opportunity for scrutiny by all the
people. To plead ignorance Of the
fundamental law as an excuse for vio-
lating one or permitting it's violation,
is a poor plea for member of the
city government. 1t matters not that
no harm was done. The time to call
attention to it is before harm is done,
and when to call attention to it can
not be attributed to any spirit of ma
levolent criticism. Ordinances were
made to be enforced. 1t is no excuse
for permitting their violation to say
that no harm is done by their viola
ton. If the ordinances are not need
ed repeal them. AS Shakespeare
says: 1--WE should not make a scare
crow of the law" Crows soon come
to know the harmlessness of a scare
crow.

In the enthusiasm over the good
work the women are planning, and
which we all ought to be willing to
support, let's not forget what some
men have been doing. There is tri-
angular plot in front of the residence
of A. ID. Farwell which he has kept
blossoming for years from the time
of tulips to the season of asters. John
e. Hubbard used to take the same
care of small plot near his house
and this custom has been kept up by
j. M. Boutwell,, who owns the hand

We pay too little attention to these
matters. The fact that this ordinance
made in response to some demand, is
ignored and has become a dead letter;
the fact that the City Council, in al
lowing Alderman Taft's bill for coal,
violated a provision of the fundamen-
tai law of the city, violated it in pure
ignorance, not in collision or for pur-
poses of graft, shows how careless
we have become in such matters.

Funny, how the great public will
changes its mind" remarked the phil
osopher. "A year ago the voters of
the city recorded themselves in favor
of new High School building and at
a special meeting ordered tn purchase
of the LOOMS street site, though the
price was some $4,000. The City
Council bought it for $4,000 less than
the price named, and now the voters
are so angered over what they consid-
er an excessive price that they will
not authorize bonds for placing a
High School building on it. They will
get their ideas Strengthened out soon.
We must have a High School and they
all know it.

UNCONSIDERED TRIPLES
Some Facts, Serious and Frivolous, Of
Interest to the People of Montpelier
and Vicinity.

Some years ago ! believe an ordin-
ance was passed by the City Council
requiring all coal sold in the city to
be weighed on the city scales. Is
any of the coal now sold thus weigh
ed? What is the use of having on or
dinance If it is not enforced?

Since an article appeared in the
Morning Journal advocating the for
nation of local historical society I
have heard a number of men sneak
favorably of it. We once had here
the best collection of old newspapers
in the country. These were collected
by Henry Stevens from all parts of
the surrounding country and
were then easily secured. Some
of them he sold to New York socie-
ties, and others, stored in the dome of
the old State House, were destroyed
when that was. burned There are
quantities of valuable material to be
had whenever a proper room can be
secured for storing it, The tenden-
cies in these days seems to be to des-
troy all such material. When a man
clears out an attic he sends the con-
tents to the dump instead of examin-
ing it to see what it may contain of
value.

There may not be any need of it and
there is no question, so far as l have
ever heard, of the honesty of the coal
dealers of the city. To to sure, the
auditors did catch Alderman Taft in
ter and refused to approve one bill
though it already had been paid and
their disapproval did not count. But
that was only technicality. The
question is not over the honesty of
the coal dealers or the necessity for
such an ordinance, but whether the
ordinances, the laws of the city, made
by it's own city government, shall be
enforced and obeyed.
