responsible for the popularity of the

FISH HATCHERY IMPROVEMENTS
Extensive Repairs and Changes Being
Made on Grounds and Buildings

Montpelier, Aug. 26.-Extensive re-
pairs are being made on the state fish
hatchery at Roxbury. Experiments
made last spring showed that spring
water is most satisfactory for rearing
brook trout, and brook water gives
better results in rearing lake and sal
mon trout. Therefore all the wooden
rearing ponds at the upper end of the
hatchery grounds will be removed and
a large tank built there, from which
the water will be released the sup.
ply being regulated so either spring
or brook water can be used in the
ponds as desired. A large pond will
be constructed at the upper end OF
the ponds and Is to 18 breeding ponds
along the lower levels Of the grounds
The building on the grounds is to be
raised two feet and cement foundat-
ions and floors and breeding troughs
will be put in.
The hatchery has put out between
100000 and 100000 fry this season.
The fry reared this year were brook
trout, lake trout. salmon and a few
golden trout.

Whatever may be the merits of the
recall system It should not be applied
to the judiciary. OF all men our
judges should not be swayed by pop
ular clamor or sudden changes that
sweep over the country Do
we want to drive our best lawyers
away from the bench and make our
courts less strong? The fact that in
the whole history OF Vermont only
three or four judges have been refus-
ed reelection because of unpopular.
ity, shows that the people OF Vermont
are pretty well satisfied with their
work and that here, at least, there is
no demand for the recall. President
Tafts veto OF the act admitting Ariz-
ona because of the recall article In its
constitution will be heartily approx
ed In acknowledgements Enter
prise.
The argument put forth by the En-
terprise is that of the conservative
everywhere. They are always saying
the people cannot be trusted to do
this or that and II must be done for
them by somebody wiser and better.
Our own observation may be limited
and we do not claim 1t TO be conclu-
sive, but 1t leads US TO believe that
while the people in managing their
own affairs win make some mistakes
they will make no more and no worse
ones than the alleged wiser and bet
ter ones put up In high places to ex-
ercise superior intelligence about our
affairs. Vermont is about the only
state In the union that has a practical
system OF recall of judges provided by
the constitution of the state. II wasn't
placed in our constitution under the
name OF recall but Il is just as good
in effect. as II compels the judges to
come up for reelection every two
years and II a Judge is too notorious
he doesn't get reelected as has hap
pened, We believe, once or twice In
this state The system hasn't worked
very badly in Vermont and there is
no reason to think It would In Ariz-
ona, had the president allowed 1t to
be tried there. We are, however, In.
cllned to believe that any recall
should require something more than
a bare majority. For instance a may.
or elected by narrow majority
might in making his appointments Of
fend some OF his supporters and be
come victim OF a recall election for
no reason whatever except that by
doing what he esteemed right he had
alienated enough votes to put him IN
the minority Make the recall b,
substantial maiorlty-sixty or sixty
five per cent OF the total vote cas-
and II will do no harm to the interests
OF the people and may give them |
weapon which they can use to gooC
advantage.

THE EVENING BANNER
BENNINGTON. VT, AUG. 20. 1911

President Taft in speech at Roch-
ester spoke of the "nostrums of re-
form" The Banner has not read the
speech in full and does not know how
he applied the term but the phrase
will strike the ear of thinking men
as an apt one. The world is full of
'nostrums OF reform" cures for this
and preyentives for that, which will
neither cure nor prevent. Some of
them are proposed in good faith and
honest enthusiasm but many of them
are born in demagogy. fostered in
quackery and fruit in humbug. In these
days of hot agitation and unrest 1t is
one of the hardest things in the world
to distinguish the "nosturms" of re-
form from the genuine. There is no
political system which will insure
comfort, competence and happiness
to the ordinary man, or indeed to any
man. These things are dependent on
health, habits, industry and thrift.
When any party. faction, cult or in
dividual promises to make the rank
and file well-to-do or to give them the
luxuries enjoyed by the rich, by some
sudden political process. take no
stock in the theory, 1t is merely a
nostrum Of reform. But the fact that
the great part OF proposed reforms
are nosturms should not blind us to
the importance OF the remaining por.
ton. There can be no sudden OF
magical transition. Nature and hui
manity make haste slowly. Better
ment comes gradually through i'm
proved conditions and that reform ie
best which will aid In advancing so
eiety and government so as to enable
every man born under 1t to attain
through integrity. industry and perse
yerance, to condition OF comfort
competence and happiness which can
only be taken away from him when
he seeks to abuse the liberties by
which he is surrounded.
