An important administration measure
which has passed both the Senate and
the House, and probably will be finally
enacted authorizes the withdrawal of
public lands for settlement. The Presi-
dent has persistently urged such a
measure, but it has been obscured and
obstructed by the senseless controversy
over the conservation policy" This
administration is just as much in favor
Of the rational conservation of natural
resources as was the last. The difference
is that it does not feel itself empowered
to change the national policy and sus-
pend the operation Of the laws without
the authority of Congress. The Garfield
PinchOt agitation has succeeded hitherto
in tying up all progress Of any kind.
With the statutory authority now given
him the President can make a lawful
reservation OF forests and mineral lands
and permit legitimate settlement to go
on. This is a victory over unreasoning
insurgency which gives the President
genuine grounds Of satisfaction.

Deafness Cannot be Cured

by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear
There is only one way TO cure deafness,
and that is by constitutional remedies
Deafness is caused by an infamed con-
dition OF the mucous lining of the Eus-
tachian Tube. When this tube is in
famed you have a rumblng sound or
imperfect hearing. and when Il is entire
ly closed, deafness is the result, and un-
less the Inflammation can be taken out and
this tube restored to its normal condi-
tion, hearing will be destroyed forever
nine cases out Of ten are caused by ca
tarrh, which is nothing but an infiamed
condition OF the mucous surfaces.

THE PLATFORM.

The tentative platform which has been
offered to the Republicans OF Vermont is
properly confined mainly to state issues
and it was written with an eye to
progress. Briefly the main planks Of the
platform are:
The tariff to be taken out Of politics and
to be changed from time to time under
the suggestion and counsel Of a nom
partisan commission.
Reciprocity with Canada.
A national department of public health.
A few changes in the state constitution,
as suggested by commission.
Uniformity in enforcement Of the tax
law.
Some changes along the line Of a pri-
mary elections law, the legislation which
shall compel candidates to make public
their campaign expenses.
Exemption Of wages from attachment
to the amount Of $40 and equitable en-
ployers liability law.
Educa tional system which shall train
boys and girls for everyday life
A standard system Of weights and
measures
Trunk line highways
The extension OF our conservation sys-
TEN.
Continuation Of the local option law.
Individual views will differ widely as to
what is needed in the way OF taxation re-
form, an employers liability law and a
primary elections law. The platform
might have been more specific in these
matters, but on the whole the several
planks will be entirely acceptable to pro-
gressive Republicans. The platform is
published in full on page Of this paper.

lutions was F. L. Greene Of st. Albans and

The New Mexico and Arizona state
hood bill, which has finally been passed
by both branches of Congress after a
protracted struggle. does not admit these
territories TO the Union Immediately,
but is simply an enabling act, which
gives them authority TO go ahead to
prepare for statehood Two years are
likely to elapse before the date of actual
admission, and the two new states may
not be ready 10 participate in the Presi-
Dental election of 1912. 1t will first be
necessary for the two territories to hold
constitutional conventions, and after the
constitutions are drafted the people
must ratify them in a general election.
Both President and Congress must ap-
prove the constitutions adopted. The
United States flag will not contain As
stars until the first Independence day
following the actual admission of the
new states. The stars will appear in
a perfect parallelogram in the proposed
fag-eight stars across the top and six
stars deep. President Taft has stood
steadfastly in favor of statehood for the
territories, but opposition has been stub
born from motives of political expedi-
ency, and from a belief that the quality
Of citizenship in the territories and theiI
general status did not make statehood
desirable. When the new states are in.

Tafts FavorIte Poem

Let me but live my life from year to year.
With forward face and unreluctant soul,
Not hurrying to, not turning from the
goal,
Nor mourning for the things that disap-
pear
In the dim past, nor holding back in fear
From what the future wells, but with a
whole
And happy heart that pays its toll
To youth and age and travels on with
cheer.
So let the way wind up the hill or down
Ger rough or smooth, the journey will
be joy,
Stil seeking what l sought when but a
boy.
New friendship, high adventure and a
crown,
My heart will keep the courage of the
quest
And hope the roads last turn viii be the
best.

the holiday trade of the South should

Overshadowing all other -considera-

the people of the South were never In
