"When the state Republican commit
tee assemblies before long to fix the dates
for the state conventions to be held next
year, why wouldn't it be proper for the
committee to authorize and direct the
secretary thereof to officially notify the
chairmen of the respective county COM
the convention TO nominate state off

request that no county convention be
held until after the date named2

The contemporaries counsel is timely
and wise.
We must either be Republicans next
year.
Or go to pieces.
It may be that the cohesive power
of long habit will hold the party or
ganization together a little while longer
in Vermont than it does in the nation.
That was true when in the last great
shift in national politics a few little
Wing states continued to hold on to a
forlorn hope long after there was no
such thing as real Wing party in the
nation at all
But Vermont Republicanism is more
part Of the nation and more closely

culation with the nation than some flesh

We must make up our minds here in
Vermont to have a Republicanism that
means something more than merely hold

Vermont's example in abolishing the
common drinking cup, followed by SINH
lar action in other places, is now bearing
fruit in Maine, where the state board of
health has recommended that the
common cup be done away with, that
bubbler fountains be installed in schools
and that the travelling public provide it,
self with individual paper cups. The
fact that these things are merely rec
commended by the Maine state board in
dieates that the state itself has taken
no action on the matter and that the
health board is little ahead of public
sentiment on this very important consid-
Grafton. Naturally, the recommendations
solely of an official board will not carry
as much weight as legal requirement,
backed up by the state legislature.
Therefore, the legislature ought to lose
no time in giving the weight of author
ity to the excellent suggestion OF the
state board Of health

STORM ON LAKE cHAMPLA1N.
AT Least Three Boats Lost with $1,000
Damage.

AT Least Three Boats Lost with $4,000
Damage.
Burlington, Nov. l4.-0ne of the most
severe wind storms which ever swept
over Lake Champlain worked havoc with
tow Of thirty boats, which left Rouses
Point Thursday with the tug Defender.
OF the number, one boat with cargo
OF hay is a total loss, two others were
sunk off the shore Of Colchester reef and
two more, which could not be gotten of,
are pounding heavily in the rough wealth
err II they, too, have not already been
sunk. The rest are in port at Port
Kent and Port Douglass, but are in a
badly damaged condition. The loss ON
the boats is estimated at $4,000, which
is probably covered by insurance.
The tow set ont from Rouses Point
under Captain Charles Bridge, who hoped
TO get them to the southern end of the
lake before the closing of the canal. But
Friday, when a stiff wind came up, the
boats were scattered until the tug Rob
ert Cook came to the rescue. They were
then Kept together until Sunday morn
ing, when the wind shifted to the west
and blew at the rate Of 80 miles an hour,
driving eleven of the boats against the
shoals north OF Colchester reef. Nine.
teen boats were safely anchored in port,
but the rest either sank or were badly
damaged. The tug Robert Cook ran onto
rock and broke its propeller, making
il of no further use in the storm, All
the crews were saved.
When the officials of the tug boat line
heard Of the trouble, they dispatched a
boat 10 aid, and succeeded in towing the
Cook into Burlington harbor The boat
which is a total wreck was filed with
hay, which is also ruined, and the two
which sunk were loaded with lumber,
all three being consigned to New York.
They will probably be raised. All the
boats consigned to Burlington were un-
injured and win probably reach here to.
