sponsibilities as capital Of the state and
as custodian Of great deal Of the
states property,
Lest such situation arise in Yer
mont, the people of the state may be
pardoned for taking what may appear
to be an obtusiye interest in a matter
Of local policy, the question Of adequate
fire protection at Montpelier. In the
first place, it seems that Montpelier
has the fundamentals OF good fire pro-
lection, namely, large water resource,
which is generally OF sufficient head, and
a corps of individual fire fighters who. are
as good as to be found in any COM
munity of the size OF Montpelier. With
those fundamentals, Montpelier is salts
factorily equipped, except for one detaili
and that detail is now recognized as
very important. Ii is the promptness
of the service. Given the best water
pressure obtainable and the most cour-
ageous individual fremen, and it all
ayails little in preventing great loss, pro-
yided the men and the water are not
ready at the outbreak Of the fire. TO
overcome that difficulty, a volunteer fire
department must be in part supplanted
by a corps of firemen who are constantly
in service and ready at moments
notice to respond to an alarm. That,
then, seems to be Montpelier's solution
of the present question. A Montpelier
citizen, who is quoted by the Montpelier
Journal to-day, seems to have proposed
a system of fire department which might
be considered acceptable. His scheme
includes the proposition OF having a COM
paratively small number of fremen in
constant service, with many more call
men ready to answer to general alarms,
and with chemical engine manned by
the regular fremen to attack fire
promptly and without the use of water I
When Montpelier follows out a plan of
this nature, it may rest assured that the
state viii feel that all due requirements
of the present situation are met.

PROTECTING STATE PROPERTY AT
MONTPELIER.

The entire state OF Vermont has more
than q passing interest in the question
OF more adequate fire protection in
Montpelier, which is being discussed
quite freely in that city, following the
destruction Of the Rialto building on
State street last week; and that interest
lines in the fact that the state has a
vast amount of property located at
Montpelier, the protection OF which is
entirely dependent on the resources Of
Montpelier. The State House, with the
supreme court and state library annex,
represents great expenditure of money.
Therefore, without attempting to arouse
any undue alarm the state has right
to request that Montpelier maintain as
good equipment as is possible for the
size and wealth OF the community. A
recent small blaze in the speakers office
annex called attention to what might
happen at nearly any time; but happily
in that case the incipient eonhagration
was discovered early enough so that the
flames We're subdued by employees at the
State House. Moreover further atten-
tion is called to the desirability OF good
fire protection by the great loss sustained
by the state of Missouri on Sunday
night, when the entire capitol building
was destroyed with loss Of 100000,
in which case the total destruction was
in part due to the lack Of adequate water
pressure at the service of the jefferson
City fire department. In that case JEFF
ferson City failed to live up to the re-

Of great interest and historical value,
with Mr. Greeley as its subject, was de-
livered BY another distinguished native
Of the same section Of our state, Hon.
Albert f. Pillsbury Of Massachusetts,.
This address we print elsewhere IN this
paper and so full and fair is its picture
of Mr. Greeley that we add to it no
comments Of our own upon this cen
tennial occa aston.
II may be pertinent, however, to re.
cord in this connection our conviction
that in the recurring cycles of eiyiliza-
tion the type Of editor represented by
Mr.. Greeley and the type Of newspaper
represented by the New York Tribune
of his day--and TO large degree OF
this day, also--is about due to come into
favor again. The newspaper which
prints the news, good, bad and indif-
ferent, and does nothing else, has had,
we think, its day Of greatest triumph.
The newspaper which considers its mis-.
sion to be to amuse and entertain the
largest possible number OF people with
pennies is having now its day. There
are signs, il seems to us, that the Amer
lean public Is ready once more to sup
port the type Of paper which aims to
truly inform its readers, to pre.digest
for them the vast, unwholesome mass
Of the days news, to lead them and TO
influence them for what it thinks the
right. Horace Greeley deemed that his
mission and history records to what
wonderful extent he accomplished his
purpose and impressed his personality,
his newspaper and his and its principles
upon the American people Of his day.

BetWeen
Ourselves

Mrs. Helen Mary Shaw Thomson,
the well-known Chicago advertising
expert, in a recent address said:
"The greatest possible testimony
that advertising is all economy to
the consumer is the fact that a great
majority of the women purchasers
of the world favor advertised goods.
Women are acknowledged to be
good buyers. If they felt they did
not receive full value for their
money in advertised goods they
would nst buy them"
This is very true. Women ARE
good buyers and they generally
know a bargain when they see 1t.
Women also know the stores that
give good bargains and the stores
that GIVE WHAT THEY ADVER-
TISE. Ii is useless for a store to
try to deceive its women shoppers,
but unfortunately many stores do
not realize this. They persist in
advertising fake sales and fictitious
values in the belief that they will
never be found out. Could anything
be more ridiculous?
Faxed values are dangerous
things-we shun them as we would
the plague.
