FOUR SPOKE FOR No-LIcENsE.
kalne and Clarke c. Fits Addressed
RaIIy in Auditorium Sunday Night.

The no-license rally in the Auditorium
Sunday evening attracted a large audi
ence and appeared to be decidedly worth
while. For half an hour Letsinger's
orchestra gave concert, which was par
ticularly enjoyable, and then Chairman
Il. b. Smith spoke briefly, stating that a
temporary organization had been formed
in the interest of no-license and that 1t
probably would be made permanent. A
male chorus of 10 voices was received
with applause. Representative j. G.
Stafford spoke of the enviable position
which Brattleboro holds in Vermont on
account of what the town stands for and
said: 1T Is because we stand for tenn
perance that we occupy the social posi-
ton we do" George l., Durham talked
on the economic side OF the liquor ques-
ton. AS buyer of the alcohol used in the
Memorial hospital through his position
as president. Mr.. Durham was able to
show the large profit made In the sale OF
liquor. He spoke OF the great change
that had taken place in the past 20 years
with respect to the employment of
travelling men, most firms now declining
to employ men who use liquor He said
he would not knowingly hire a man who
patronzed a saloon. After a solo by
Fred C. Adams, Bailiff John T. Kaine
took up the argument of license men that
a large amount OF liquor was brought in
from out of town under no-license rule.
Mr.. Kaine admitted that to be true, but
he said 1t did not make the public scan
dal that open saloons made 1t Is more
convenient to obtain liquor when 1t is
sold over the bar, he said, which in
creases the consumption. He said there
was not a single reason why this town
should vote license and it would not II all
the voters came to the polls.
Clarke C. Fits was the last speaker,
following n selection DV the male chorus
He said II behooved a man who intended
Vermont phÅ“nix. [volume] (Brattleboro, Vt.) 1834-1955, 1911-03-10

to vote yes to ask himself why. The
sale of liquor benefits only the dealers
and the lawyers. Mr.. Fits said there never
was time when the question was of
so much Importance to this town as now
when we are enthusiastic over our in
dustrial prosperity. By May /, he said,
500 men would be employed here in rail-
road construction and by July l probably
1000 men would be similarly employed,
which was a reason why the town should
vote no. Nothing will help so much in
inducing industries to come here as to
increase the no vote, and such concerns
as do come will be influenced by two
things in determining the character of
the help they will bring; First, the
quality of the tenements; and, second,
whether the town is license or no-license.
The program closed with the singing of
America by the audience and chorus.

VEST INSTE Err.
Banquet Of Thief Detecting Society

At the banquet of the thief detecting
society several Interesting addresses were
made. George c. Wright spoke on the
cultivation of fruit, especially apples, be-
ing well acquainted with the apple in all
its conditions and knowing the require
ments necessary to make n success of 1t
as a staple crop. John Holmes spoke on
identifying our village, of the trees which
have stood the storms of n century and
the younger growths which call for pro-
lection from the ravages of disease and
insects. Frank Spaulding of Walpole,
a resident of Westminster from boyhood
until within few years, spoke in a very
impressive way about historical Vermont.
In closing he said he had just word
for the boys of half century with whom
he had been in almost daily contact. 1t
seemed but yesterday, he said, that he
used to come to the village from Rocky
hill, his boyhood home, and with others
listen to those who seemed at that time
to be venerable men and who have since
passed out of Westminster life, their
places being filled by men who would.
ere long, be walking with falterng step
and dimmed eye. His heart still held his
old home in reverence and respect.
Rev. Frederick Hayward told In n
general way of the society, its purpose
and lack of work, saying that 1t was far
better to spend an evening at social
banquet than in hunting for thieves;
also of the good moral standing of Il COM
munty which was clean AMI law abiding.
Pithy stories were told by others and the
evening was one long to be remembered
as a social function. The fine supper
served by a competent corps of workers
was enjoyed by about so. w. S. Fem. as
president of the society, wishes to thank
all those who served at supper and In
furnishing needed supplies.

The evening world., 1911-09-05

For this reason unusual interest attaches to Mr.. Otto Kahn's con-
cepton of lies responsibilities as expressed in a appreciation Of
his late friend and business associate, Edward II. Hartman, and .
comprehensive estimate of Mr.. J. Pcrpont Morgan as viewed in per-
spectve by Edison.
In Mr.. Edisons view, life is practically a business deal, and all
the men and women merely machines that contribute to working out
the ends of civilization and the general ideal. This h what he calls
the impersonal attitude. What he admires in Mr.. Morgan and other
great business heads of America is this impersonal attitude Of their
formal relations with the world. That is to say, in their handling Of
affairs there is a breadth and bigness that petty sptes or personal
friendships cannot influence.
"The power of Morgan" he thinks, "fs due to his being as de-.
tsched as Fate"
Mr.. Kahn's idea seems to differ radically from this, although in
actual practice the results achieved by the two men Of finance and art
patronage are not dissimilar.
Every man who by eminent success in commerce or finance
raises himself beyond his peers, Mr.. Kahn takes il, Is in the nature
Of things more or less Of an "frritant" It behoovcs him. therefore,
to make his privileged position as little Earring as possible upon others
who have not made the lucky strike. "He should beware of that in
sdious tendency Of wealth to chill and isolate"
One Of the things he can do in the pursuit OF this concIiatory
policy, continues the patron who bought the 100000 Frans Halls
and lent It to the Metropolitan Museum for public exhibition, is to go
in for the promotion of culture and art.
"The opportunity is b~oundless, and the need for men who will
put some Of their wealth, OF their time and ability in the service Of
this cause is very great. Maecenases re needed for the dramatic
stage, the musical stage. the concert stage" fere is a nice dhsinc-
and support Of American painters, in fact for all those things which
in Europe have been done and are being done by princes, govern
ments and communities"
