There will be two places on the su-
preme court to be filed, since at the
last session the general assembly fail
ed to elect a fifth associate justice pro-
vided for by the constitutional amend
ment recently adopted. 1t will be re-
mem4ered that the general assembly
was deadlocled on. the election for
several weeks and adjourned without
making a choice. That place will be
filed, and also the position vacated
by the chief Justice. It has been GUS
tomary to promote one Of the associate
justices to chief justice, and should
this be done there will be an election
held for two associate justices. The
present associates justices in the Or
der of seniority of service, are Eu-
gene B. Gary, C. A. Woods and D. E.
Hydrick. When the legislature ad-
iourned the candidate being voted for
for the new position on the supreme

Plumpy Wilkes have a habit of making
the real race under the blankets down in

come in one, two, three, when they ought
to be three, one, two, the crowd catches
on, loses interest, gets disguised and goes
off and spends time and money for hot dogs

GREENFIELD WON IS TO 0.
Local High School Football Team Failed
10 Score Saturday.


BY playing an crratic defensive game,
the Brattlehoro high school football team
lost to Greenfield high, at Greenfield
Saturday by score Of IL to O. The local
team was handicapped in that the weather
and fair prevented practice the week
previous and SO was wanting on the olfcnse
besides lacking snap on the defense at
times. The victorious team was practically
the same aggregation that lost 10 the local
team last year by a score of II to J. which
defeat 1t seemed to remember every
moment Of the contest. The Greenfield
line drives were hard proposition for the
losers to size up soon enough TO stop with
out good gains. They also worked the
forward pass several times for good dis
tance and once for touchdown. The local
team received on the kickoff hut was soon
forced to try punt and the pass to Taylor
was several feet over his head SO that he
was obliged to fall on it back of his own
goal which counted as safety. Brattle,
boro then kicked off to its opponents
who brought the oval to their 15-vard line
when the first period ended At the. be-
ginning Of the second period. Cain went
through his left wing for touchdown and
kicked the goal The latter part of this
period Brattleboro had the ball within
its opponents 15-yard line but Thaver's
drop kick was blocked. Maher pulled in
a forward pass in the third period on Brat
teboro's 20 yard line and crossed the line.
The Brattleboro boys showed some brilliant
defensive work in the last period when
they held Greenfield for downs on the
three-yard line. Of the local men who

The Brandon Union protests strenuousy
against the conditions that are to prevail
at the coming state teachers convention
in Montpelier with regard to railroad and
hotel rates. In view of the fact that Yer
mont teachers, whose wages are ac-
knowledged to be none too high, are ex-
pected to attend this gathering the Union
believes that it should take place in a city
whose hotels are willing to make conces-
sions in price and that the railroads should
make something better than mileage rates
In the opinion of the Union, the capital
city bonifaces have been decidedly remiss
in making their rates for teachers no less
than are charged at political conventions.
Evidently it believes that politics in
Vermont is a more lucrative calling than
teaching school.

Electric railroad development about
Rutland is greater than in any other part
of Vermont, the company which controls
the system having shown much progress
siveness in extensions. The most recent
addition is line between Fair Haven and
Poultney at cost of approximately S150,-
600 connecting those places with Rutland.
Other electric railroad lines in Vermont
have meanwhile remained quiescent, not
having added to their mileage since the
roads were first put in and being content
merely to keep the cars running between
the original points of connection.-Barre
Times
The Brattleboro street railroad is plan
ming a modest extension to accommodate
the residential section that has sprung up
in the vicinity of the new cotton mill, and
it is not too much to expect that other
prospective industrial additions to Brattle-

further electric road development.
