The Vermont State prison.

All praise is due Warden w s. Lowell
of the state prison at Windsor for tie
making Of that institution what il is
to-daya model among state penal IN
stitutions, and one in which every loyal
Vermonter must take exceptional pride.
Even in the pg-pens, and through all
the barns and ont houses, as well ne
in the rooms of the inmates and every
apartment in the institution, the same
immaculate neatness and attractiveness
prevail, and the beauty of it all is that
this all.pervading feature is not mere
superficial one, but one Of the manifesto
tions of well-cOnsidered general sys-
TEN Of administration, having for its
aims economic efficiency and, most Of
all, such treatment Of the inmates
as will best tend TO their eventual re-
Mobilization as citizens, by bringing out
their latent capacities, proving to them
the advantages of concentrated effort
and purposefulness and the desirable
ity Of personal and general neatness
and the observance Of all the laws Of
sanitation, and, most of all, by stimulat-
ing them with feeling of self-respect,
with the idea that they are men and
women, and not mere beasts whatever
may have been their criminal careers,
and, that they still have opportunity and
reason for hope. Comfort and home
likeness, even in a penal institution,
are great desiderata, and an innovation
inaugurated on Monday morning of this
week well illustrates praiseworthy hui
manitarianism that inspires Warden
Lowell in his administration Of the IN
stitution-the doing away with the old
time degrading stripes and the attiring
Of every inmate in handsome gray wool
len suits, cut to measure, and made
from material manufactured in the pris-

A Problem Solved.

"Tell me, where is Fancy breadl"
Thus VIII Shakespeare vexed his heat
Strange that such a brain as that
William carried in his hat
Could not see the answer plain
To questioning so vain.
There were maidens. | dare say,
Like my Phyllis in his day
Maidens quite as sweet and fair,
Maidens crowned with golden hair,
Maidens full Of WITNESSES coy
Made to fill the heart with joy.
Maids no doubt like Phyllis, who
One and all could bake and brew;
Who could bake and brew;
Who could make a cake for tea
Just as easily as She

Phyllis will do for minel
If you don't believe this true
I can prove the same to YOU

Made for me in nineteen nine
And I'll wager it is the
Fanciest you ever see!

State. And then there is the wholly
needless compulsory election feature

There are evidently 'wheels within

of the State have not agreed. Ana
second, the platform, which is paraden
as the excuse for the demand for TINS

any ono undertakes to express IN IAN
quage that Will be fit for statute
any demand in that platform, 1t is
found impossible to do so.
So the truth is. as The Tribune mas
often stated, that no legislation If
needed at the present session on the
liquor question. That question is set
tied by the decision of the Supreme
Court. on a satisfactory basis. Any
new legislation would unsettle tha
decision, and put the whole matter al

REPRESENTATIVES, APPoRTIoNED

The House Of Representatives has af,
ter all accepted the Crumpacker plan
of apportionment for members of the
National House Of Representatives. un'
der tho census of 1910. IT will be re
membered that the House committee on
the census to which the settlement OF
the apportionment question was entrust-
ed, 3ecided unanimously upon bill
which would allow each State to keep
its present representation ID the House
When this committee reported Its CON
clusions to the House in the form of
bill. n number of the members were dis.
| contented They wished to have a
smaller House than the bill provided,
and they called caucus of the Repuh
| lican members of the House to consider
| the question. In this caucus the pro
posal OF Representative Campbell OF
Kansas carried. This plan provided
that the House membership should re-
main as at present, 391. In comment
ing upon this at the time, we expressed
the opinion that very likely the Crum-
packer plan would prevail. in spite OF
the fact that the Republican caucus had
adopted a different basis. Our judg-
ment on this was based upon the prob.
ability that the Republican members,
as we'll as the Democratic members,
| from such States as would lose repre-
sentation by reason of the cutting down
Of the membership Of the House, would
| bo MIA m
crease the membership, so that their
States would not lose. Ohio, Indiana
Illinois. Wisconsin. Iowa, Missouri. and
other States would have lost under the
Campbell plan. Most of these are strong
Republican States, and the Representa-
bound by the caucus action, but took
their stand in support of the committed
report. Inasmuch as this committee is
a Republican committee, inst AS mucl
as the House is a Republican House
the members boiling the caucus actor
and sustaining the committee did moi
feel that they lost any party prestige
by so doing. They were simply pro
tccting their States from loss, and were
justified in so doing
Under this bill as passed, the HOUSE
membership numbers 433. When Ari
zona and New Mexico are admitted
they will have one Representative each
and the total House membership vii
then be 435, In the meantime, with tn
membership of 433, from the States al
ready in the Union, no State will los
any member, and good many of tn
, States will gain. Among the State
to gain will be Utah, which will gain ]
, and Idaho, Montana, and Colorado viii
each gain l. California will gain 3
, Washington Will gain ,; Oregon vii
, gain J.. And SO the West will be yer
greatly strengthened by this new az
portionment.
