Tribute To The Soldier.

The passage by the House of Rep
resentatives last week of the Sullo-
way general pension bill by vote
of 212 to 81 was a great tribute to
the volunteer soldier of the past.
The bill grants pensions ranging
from twelve to thirty-six dollars a
month to all soldiers who served
ninety DAYS in the United States
army in the Civil War or sixty days
in the Mexican War, who have
reached the age of sixty-two. It
will add about s45,O0O,OOO to the
annual pension bill.
Time has so reduced the number
of veterans of these wars that they
are not the political power they once
were and they are reported to be
dying at the rate of 100 every
twenty four hours, so the members
in voting so strongly for the meas
ure cannot be charged with playing
politics. This vote was given at a
time, too, when retrenchment and
care in making government appro
priations is quite as popular as any
other political policy. So it must be
generally admitted that the vote of
this increase in the pension roll
comes solely as a tribute of appre
citation of the soldier and his ser
vice in the hour of the nations peril.
The size of the Affirmative vote
shows that in nearly all sections of
the country the congressman felt
that the people were with them in
paying this tribute to the soldier.
Surely the old soldier must feel
proud of the honors shown him in
his declining years.

the encouragement of borrowing
only in cases of necessity should be
undertaken. A very large amount
of the borrowing practiced in the
cities. and large cities especially.
is hardly classed as for necessities.
It is many times for things the fam
lily wanted and felt that some time
could be easily paid for. To such
people the period of financial luxury
is always slow to come and borrow
ing is the next step. This has led
to very damaging results in the bus
mess world and gives the money
shark his opportunity to flourish.
So a restriction of the borrowing
habit as well as the opportunity to
secure necessary loans on just
terms could we'll be undertaken by
this powerful organization.

Why Fortifv the Canal.

President Taft has sent a mes
sage to Congress asking that body
to make an immediate appropriation
of 100000 to begin the con-
struction of defences along the Pan
anna canal. He estimates that
100000 will be required to
complete the work although last
April he thought it would cost
$19,000,000. His argument in IA
vor of this expenditure reads:
''The canal when completed will
afford the only convenient route for
water communication between our
Atlantic and Pacific coasts and vir-
tually will be a part of the coast
line of the United States. It's as
sured possession and control will
greatly contribute to our peace,
safety and prosperity as a nation.
GIN my Judgment it is the right
and duty of the United States to
fortify and make capable of de-
tense the work that will bear so
vital relation to its welfare, and
that is being created solely by it
and at an expenditure of enor-
nous sums
While the presidents statements
cannot be contradicted there are
those who believe the canal should
not be fortified at all but made
neutral territory. In that case it
could not be used for war purposes
and there would be no expense
Make it like the Suez canal simply
open for the passage of war vessels
without any unnecessary delay. The
impossibility of any nation using the
canal for war purposes seems
stronger than any Notifications this
country could build

Legislature Fails Again.

We regret very much the failure
of the legislature to enact a direct
primary elections BILL Purer cleo
lions is a very general demand
throughout the country and is felt
in Vermont as well as elsewhere.
To have passed such a measure
would have been a full redemption
of what the party partially called
for in its platform and we believe a
distinct step in advance in political
purity. One more deplorable fea-
ture of the defeat of the measure
that direct primary would destroy
the influence of the small towns.
The bill before the legislature
gave every voter right to vote for
one man once for every Office COW
cred in it's provisions and gave no
man the right to vote for more than
one man for any Office more than
once. No fairer proposition than this
could be asked by residents of any
town. If those men who made the
argument that such a system of
choosing the candidates for Office
was to hurt the small towns were
honest in their claims they are sub
ject to the charge of dishonesty. If
this argument was placed in their
mouths by interests opposed to the
bill they were most disgracefully
duped. Neither of these explana-
tions does credit to the representa-
tives who made the arguments.
We cannot believe that the peo-
pie of the small towns themselves
want more than an equal right in
the choice of state officials and that
any member who represented them
as wanting more was doing them
direct injury. If these men were
duped by some more crafty than
they the small town has been dis
credited to serve the purpose of I'M
worthy persons. We are also glad
to note that many of the small
towns voted for the measure. We
feel that the legislature erred in
judgment in killing the bill but rea-
lie it had a right to it's honest
judgment. But we feel that in pre-
senting the arguments that certain
members did against the measure
they unquestionably disgraced them
selves and the state to an extent
that good service now cannot re-
move the blot. They will not only
bring on a political upheaval but
they will destroy the small towns
greatest asset-the, respect and
sympathy of it's neighbors.

The borrowing Habit.

The Russell Sage Foundation has
begun an active campaign against
the Insurers of New York city in the
courts and is considering the estab-
lishment of remedial loan associa-
lions. The plan would be to have
associations that would limit their
dividends to six per cent and loan
money at that rate plus enough to
cover the cost of maintaining Of
fees. The agent of the organiza-
ton in investigating the abuses I'M
der the present system of usury
found some very cruel exactions on
the part of the usurers and their
agents. The most pitiable were
those of people forced to borrow
owing to misfortune and unable to
pay back the money received and the
exhorbitant bonus charged. Many
lost property worth much more than
the entire loan after they had paid
back all of the money received and
nearly all the bonus charged.
To protect this class of people and
to afford them an opportunity to
borrow money on honest terms will
be most commendable work for
the Russell Sage Foundation. But

F. L. Davis, president of the Yer
mont Dairymen's association, in
giving his annual address before
that body said: Statistics and
prices current show that since the
year 1891 farm products have in
creased in value by 70 per cent,
while the articles required for the
farmers use have increased but II
per cent. in the same length of time.
This showing is favorable to the
farming community. 1t is an old
saying that when agriculture is in
a prosperous condition all lines of
business will be successful We
represent 100000 families and
have more cash than any other T.
100000 families in America" That
would indicate the farmer is of
some account despite the advantages
and growth the city boasts.
