Some Virtue in the senate.

The dilatory and ALLEGED tr1st-con-
trolled United States Senate, the bane
of radicals and at times a strain on
the patience of public sentiment, has
had a spasm of virtue and activity.
To this the country will say amen
and the majority of the people will
say, "Do so some more"
First. It has promised an amend
ment to it's rules which will restrict
the Interruptions of a senator when
he is making a speech. This amend
.ment has been referred to the proper
committee and there is reason to ex-
pect it will be reported to the senate
before we celebrate another CEN
tennia1. When the amendment was
proposed to the senate several of the
strongest members supported it and
admitted that the practice of inter-
rupting a senator and taking the time
allotted to him away from him had
become shameful It certainly will
add to the dignity of the proceedings
of that body and allow more con-
nected and intelligent debate of the
topics before it if the change is
made
The second exhibition of virtue
was the senate's action on the pub
licity of campaign expenses bill. This
bill was sent to the senate by the
democratic house and while it pro-
vided for publicity of campaign ex-
penses after a. candidate was nom
mated it did not affect in any way
the expenses of a man in getting the
nomination. The senate took hold
of the bill vigorously and made it ap-
ply to the primaries as well as cleo
tions. 1t limited the amount any
candidate could expend in both pri-
mary and election to $4,000 for
senator and $4,000 for a congress-
man, makes it illegal to promise po-
liticaI places to secure election sup
port and requires publicity of all
promises of political jobs. The pub
licity is to be made before election.
That looks good. 1t is somewhat
doubtful however if candidates can
be detected if they fail to make pub
lie promises of political jobs. One
feature lacking is a penalty for vio-
lation of the provisions of the act.
Possibly there is some general law
that might apply, but unless there is
one can violate the law with impuni-
ty Despite these defects it is a dem
onstration of a wholesome spirit in
the senate and we endorse it. We
would endorse more of the same
thing if we had the chance.

Honest Medicine Versus Fakes.

President Taft's recent message
suggesting an amendment to the
Pure Food and Drugs law in it's re-
lation to Prepared Medicines, does
not refer to such standard medicines
as Foley's Honey and Tar Compound
and Foley's Kidney Pills, both of
which are true medicines carefully
compounded of ingredients whose
medicinal qualities are recognized by
the medical profession itself as the
best known remedial agents for the
diseases they are intended to coun-
teracG. For over three decades Fo-
ley's Honey and Tar Compound has
been standard remedy for coughs,
colds and affections of the throat,
chest and lungs for children and for
grown persons, and it retains today
it's pre-eminence above all other
preparations of its kind. Foley Kid
ney Pills are equally effective and
meritorious. G. Z. Bingham.

she attained such unpleasant noto-

until public sentiment asserts itself

Attest,
HARRY j. STANNARD,
Cacrnf nv

The above resolution tells quite a
story. 1t means that the state of
Vermont will try to raise its normal
schools to higher standard than it
was possible for them TO raise them
selves as Independent institutions.
The step is not entirely new as the
higher course is changed very little
from what it has been the past two
years but the difficulty has been that
too many took only the lower course
which is to be abolished in June,
1913. That the step must produce
teachers of a higher grade is shown
by the recognition by the education
al departments of the states of New
York, New Hampshire and Rhode Is
land of diplomas from the higher
course on the same basis as a diplo-
ma from their own normal schools.
This action does not solve the nor
NAL school problem in Vermont as it
is yet to be demonstrated that the
school authorities will pay teachers
enough wages so they can afford to
assume the increased expense of fit
ting for their work. We think that
will come however because their
training will make the teachers more
valuable and the people of the state
are generally ready to pay for value
received.

ADMITTED STEALING WATCH.
But Not Until Evidence Against Him
Was Shown to Be Strong.

Burlington, Dec. IA young man
with one leg only, who gets about with
the aid of crutek, was arraigned in
city court yesterday on the charge OF
stealing gold watch from Mitchell
Benoit. He pleaded not guilty and the
prosecution introduced several witnesses
The owner Of the lost watch said he paid
s2l for the timepiece Is years ago. Chief
Russell testified that Dunekin owned up
to selling the watch at a local pawn
shop, but he said he did not steal it.
The evidence showed that Dunekin sold
the watch at the pawnshop mentioned
for So and that the proprietor had sold
it out again for So.
When Dunekin heard the evidence
against him, he said he stole the watch.
Acting Judge Taft sentenced him to pay
fine of $40 and costs of Sls.07. The
respondent has no cash and will spend
the alternative 30 days in Jail. The
theft was committed while Dunekin was
assisting Mrs. Benoit to hang some pa
per.
