PRESS COMMENT.
Pay For Guardsnen.

Members of the Vermont National
Guard will be interested in the bill
before the House at Washington
proposing to pay members of the
National Guard for time actually
spent IN the service each year. If
the bill becomes a law the United
States will pay between $8,000,000
and $9,000,000 to the National
Guard organizations in the country.
The bill does not contemplate pay
ment for camp duty. Its principal
purpose is to give the men some re-
Enumeration for the time spent in reg
ular weekly drill, the pay amounting
to about a 81 night or a maximum
of $48 year. Enlisted men will re-
ceive Is per cent of army pay, COM
pany commanders 20 per cent, and
regimental officers Is per cent.
General officers and staff officers will
receive only 5 per cent of army pay.
Pay for the men for actual time
spent in drilling is expected to in
crease the average attendance at
drills and to aid discipline and one
would think it would naturally have
that effect..T Burlington News.

Champ Clark is willing the com
mittees of the house of representa-
tives shall be chosen by a commit
tee of the house because the people
want to see if it will not prevent fur
Their exhibitions of Czarism by the
speaker. Champ Clark is a demo-
erat but he seems more inclined to
give the people a fair show than
those republican wiseacres at Mont
pelier who killed the primary cleo
lions and publicity of campaign ex-
penses bill because it would not give
the small towns an undue advan-
tage.

On the supposition that the YER
mont legislature of 1901 has
finished it's work, it is time that a
brief review be taken. Notwith-
standing the objection of some mem
bers of that body to its being criti-
cized it must now accept the judg-
ment of the people of the state with
out regard to the personal wishes CT
the members.
The legislature of 1910-1911 can
not be called a constructive legisla-
ture. 1t did enact some new and
important legislation but refused to
enact too many measures that were
important and progressive to gain
the title of constructive. 1t passed
an employers liability law, made
large appropriation for i'm
proved highways, established a
teachers training course for high
schools, passed a more effective
weights and measure law, practical
ly abolished capital punishment, au-
thorized the establishment of an
agricultural school and proposed
nine amendments to the state con-
stitution.
Here are some of the bills of
great Importance it had under con-
sideration put failed to enact. 1t
killed the primary election bill
which also provided for publicity
of campaign expenses and defined
corrupt political practices, refused
to establish a central normal
school, did not redeem the party
pledges regarding the exemption of
a laborer's wages from the trustee
process nor in full on the constitu-
tionaT changes and made no effec-
tive attempt to remedy the tax evils.
1t did many inconsistent things.
1t enacted fish and game laws that
require strict enforcement and left
upon the statute books the law re-
curing hunter to pay license and
then refused to allow the state fish
and game commissioner enough
money for assistance to properly
carry out the law. 1t passed
measure paying the cheapest class
of labor employed as sweepers
the same compensation that they re-
ceive as members of the legislature,
In the normal school controversy
the members heard and repeated the
charges of falsehood until they for
got the merits of the case and enact
ed personal spleen into the public
statutes. In fact it looks as
though the members stayed
there so long they began to
get sick of each other and allowed
pique to prevail over public per-
formance So the state may re-
joice that they did not attempt to
stay longer.
1t would be unjust to refuse the
legislature the credit of having in it
some very hard working and con-
scientious men. So far as we have
been able to learn the members al
though mistaken and unwise in
some of their actions were never
charged with dishonest purposes in
any of them The great majority
have right to feel they have labor
ed conscientiously for the welfare
of the state and while they failed
to do much that seemed desirable
we do not recall any especially
mischievous act to be laid to their
charge.

Mason S. Stone, state superinten-
dent of education, makes mistakes in
judgment, just as all men do. And
being in public Office his occasional
mistakes are more conspicuous than
those of his critics But when it
comes to an official investigation of
his expenditure of the states money
for purposes contemplated by the
law, when it comes to the examina-
ton into his personal honesty and
integrity and ability to account le-
ultimately for every dollar SO eX-
pended, no man would welcome such
inquiry with clearer conscience and
calmer assurance than he. And his
critics know that, too, no matter how
much they may threaten.-ESt. Al

New Christian Scriptures?

There was put forth recently from
| the Cambridge University Press a
work in two volumes which may en-
body one of the most remarkable
corroborations of Biblical history
that have ever been made. The au-
thor is DR.. Schechter, president of the
Jewish Theological Seminary in New
York City, and he discovered the
document which has now been made
public in the Genizah, or manu-
script store-room of the synagogue
at Cairo; and If the opinion of one
authority may be accepted we have
in this fragment record of the &C
tivities of the early Christians which
antedates the Gospels.
This document has reference to a
sect of Jews who, if + they accepted
Christ, had so little conception OF
the revolutionary change to be
wrought by his teachings, foresaw
SO little the results of Paul's activi-
ties, that the record affords no GER
tain clue to the personality of any
religious teachers to which it alludes.
Professor Schechter, indeed, puts
forth the theory tentatively that
this was sect which broke away
from the main body about the year
290 B. c., and that their document
prosecutions. 1t is DR.. Margoliouth
of the British Museum, who reads
into it an anti-Pauline message and
ascribes it's date to the time of the
destruction of the Temple by Titus
some forty years after the death OF
Christ
If DR.. Margoliouth's Interpretation
be correct we have in this document
a Christian record antedating that of
the earliest of the Gospels-that OF
Mark, whose composition is gener-
ally believed to have occurred about
the end of the first century of the
present era.-[ Harper's Weekly.
For Better Highways.
The fact that the general assemb-
ly has been generous enough to
double the state appropriation for
highways has brought forth ap-
proving comment all along the line
and will probably prove to be one
of the most popular acts of the
lawmakers. The appropriation OF
$150,000 for this purpose appears
large beside the $4,000 appropri-
ated in 1908, and either sum would
have been regarded as extravagant
| by legislatures not many years gone
by
But $150,O0O is not the total OF
/ expenditures for this good cause
after all. Few people realize that
the state of Vermont, all told, vii
| spend about million dollars on its
highways in the year 1911. For in
stance, the state appropriates out
right $150,000 The towns, meeting
the dollar for dollar expenditure Of
| the state under the special provision
/ of the law, may be expected to ap-
/ propriate S112,50O more for state
| roads. This makes $685. fol
highways. Then comes the revenue
for automobile taxes, estimated Al
$4,000 for 1911, the per cen
state tax of. $113, 500, and the 2(
per cent town tax of S569125O, the
whole totaling 1895, 800.
OF course these figures are not ex
| oct, but they are regarded by me1
that understand the matter as very
satisfactory, and as no doubt ade
quately representing the money Yer
mont will expend upon her high
ways this year.
We can take some courage from
this, although there is still much il
the highway law to be improved
