What is Temperament

In an editorial in the current issue
of the Enosburg Standard may be
found the following:
"The temperance people in Yer
mont will some day awaken to the
fact that the opponents of the princi-
pies of temperance in this state are
getting entrenched more and more
every year. The business of secur-
ing more liberal laws for the sale Of
liquor is not a haphazard proposition
but is thoroughly thought out and is
a concerted movement of the Brew
ers' association, which is in evidence
in every state in the Union. The
slave propaganda never was more &C
tive and aggressive in promoting its
interests than the liquor propaganda
is today.
The daily press of Vermont II not
pro-saloon, Is largely anti-prohibition.
The st. Adams Messenger. Burling-
ton News, Rutland News. Rutland
Herald, Bennington Banner and Mont
peller Journal are all lined up ag-
gressively In favor of the present law
and against the enactment of any law
that looks towards prohibition or the
more drastic restriction Of the sale
OF liquor. The Burlington Free Press

BOUND TO PROBE ROOSEVELT
Travelling Expenses Of Former Pres
ident Will Be investigated

Washington. Dec. PA determin-
ed fight will be made by Representa-
tive Rainey of Illinois, one of the
Democratic leaders, to bring the Ques-
ton of former President ROosevelt's
travelling expenses squarely before
Congress. One of the stockholders
of the Southern Railway has written
Mr. Rainey that if Mr.. Roosevelt had
paid for all the transportation fur
nished him on his orders while he
was in the White House. it would
have cost him $4,000 on that line
alone, and data furnished Mr. Rainey
he says, include an estimate of $780,
600 as the amount that Mr.. Roosevelt
as a matter of right owes to the
Pennsylvania railroad
Mr.. Rainey's recent resolution, de-
manding information as to all of Mr.
Roosevelt's travelling expenses while
he was president, has brought out a
large correspondence, including let
tiers from a number OF railway stock
holders who agree with Nj. Rainey's
view that the railroads should not be
saddled with the expense OF the spec
ial trains and special cars ordered
from the White House at passenger
department expense.
Mr.. Rainey purposes Immediately
after Congress reassembles to move
to discharge the rules committee
from further consideration of his res
olution, if, as he expects, the com
mittee pigeonholes the measure.

The proposed workmen's compen.

fact that similar ones are being drawn
In New York state show the trend in
this line of legislation. 1t is the
only fair way of dealing with thenever
ending litigation between employers
and employees which result in serious
damage to both while the money
which should go to relieve the vic
Tins of industrial accidents and their
widows and orphans now goes into
court expenses and lawyers fees.
The present system and lack of sys-
TEN Is inhuman and monstrous and
unworthy of civilization. A work.
mems compensation act would cost
neither employers nor employed more
than they pay now either directly or
indirectly. Vermont should Insist on
the enactment Of a workmen's COM
pensation act at the present session
OF the legislature. The only possible
ground for opposition is that 1t might
be declared unconstitutional but mas
much as our supreme court has
never been called upon to rule on the
question no one has a right to say
positively and the benefit to be de-
rived warrants the submission of the
act.

tempt to be fair in judgment and a
desire to get at the truth, has com
PEELED them sometimes reluctantly,
to admit that under the present local
option law this state is getting a bet
ter degree of temperance and sobrie-
ty than it ever secured under prohi-
bition.
No paper deplores the liquor evil
more than the Journal No paper is
more anxious to see the evil of in
temperance suppressed than is this
paper, but it cannot agree with those
who appear to think that the goal is
attained when a prohibitory law is
written in the Public Statutes OF Yer.
mont. The Journal has fought the
saloon in Montpelier and expects to
continue the fight, and it knows that
this city has far better prohibition
now than 1t had under the prohibitory
law. 1t knows that there are many
of our citizens who were strongly OPP
posed to the prohibitory law who are
voting every year to keep the saloon
out of Montpelier. They believe that
a municipality has the right to de-
eide for itself whether liquor shall or
shall not be sold. Give them that
privilege and they are mo" men.
Take that privilege away from them
and give to the state or the county
the right to restrict the sale OF liquor
and they will be hostile to the law.
We have the best possible prohib-
ition now in from 215 to 220 towns
and cities of Vermont because the
people have decreed that condition
and 1t can be enforced. In the re-
naming % or 30 towns where a ma
jority of the citizens want liquor sold
prohibition cannot be enforced sue
cessfully In all probability. The Jour
nal wishes that every one of the 246
towns and cities in Vermont would
vote mo- but It believes that it is
wise to let them settle this matter
for Reconsideration Journal
and Barre Times are not aggressive
advocates of either policy, but UNI
questionably are temperance papers

WINGED would yield more satisfactory
returns than the present law; while
the weekly papers are not pronOunc-
ed either for or against the present
law, although a majority of the week

porary legislation"
Unquestionably the inference to be
drawn from the statement Of the
Enosburg contemporary is that the
Journal, and some other Vermont
newspapers. are not Temperance pa
