the community lose more than can
now be realized. Her whole life has
been identified with this place, and
so exemplary has been her career
that on every side expressions of
great sorrow show the esteem and re-

one reflects on the genial, kind and
affectionate manner with which she
received friends in her home, one can
readily know that these Characters

in her long illness she found 1t so
hard to remain away from the various
church gatherings. Her sufferings
were borne with great patience, and
during the past few months many
have wondered at the interest she
evinced In all local affairs. Her en-

The condition of trout streams
in this section at this time is very
unafvorable, as most Of them are
still frozen over, and little fishing
will be done on the first day OF the
open season, which comes Saturday
The general belief with fishermen
here is that the Legislature made a
mistake in changing the opening OF
the season from May ahead two
weeks to April Is. This is an I'M
usual season, however, and there
may be few years when the brooks
will not be open. There are many
too who are of the same opinion as
State Fish Commissioner TitcomD'
He says this change will result IN
the taking of large numbers OF fsh
in April when they are thin and
hungry and come out OF the water
more like sticks than gamey trout,
and believes more trout will be taken
in the last Is days of April that would
be caught during the entire month OF
August. Furthermore, he thinks that
the early closing will work a severe
hardship on summer vacationists, and
it is his opinion that the old law pro
viding for an open season from May l
to September would result In quite
as much revenue to the state with
Just as good protection to the fish,
Hardwick Gazette.
The Gazette is in error in thinking
that under the old law the season
opened May as it did not until May
Is. The new law opens the season
full month earlier than the old. The
question has been argued so many
times that it is perhaps idle to go ov'
er it again but still there are people
who do not seem to understand the
point. The earlier opening is not de-
signed to give a better chance to
catch trout. Quite the reverse. On
April Is In ordinary years there is
mighty little chance to catch trout IL
Vermont and with the season opening
then fishermen will go out gradually
as the season and the streams invite
and the fishing Is conserved and, we
believe, kept better over longer
period. Under the May is law every
body went in bunch and the streams
we're depleted in one day. AS to the
claim that the fish are sluggish and
easily taken in April we do not De
lieve that the facts prove anything Of
the kind. Ask the fishermen whe
went out last Saturday If any such
claim is true. AS to the talk about
the thinness of the trout that Is not
very valuable argument. Trout are
fatter in July than in June but wh'
would urge all the trout fishing being
done in July? The summer vacation
list plea is all right II we had unlimit
ed quantities of trout but we haven't

The only thing that could justify
the calling together of the legislature
in special session would be some men
ace to the welfare OF the state which
might possibly be averted. Such a

ing special session. We have no
doubt that the senator's, who voted
against the Boston and Maine would
themselves be most prompt TO pre-.
vent such an injustice to one OF the
best counties of the state and such a
permanent injury to the income and
welfare of the state. IT, however, the
plan of the Boston and Maine is to
build through Hinsdale only on the
New Hampshire side and return to
the Vermont bank of the river at
Brattleboro village we do not believe
that the governor is justified In call
ing a special session. for, while that
would give the taxes on ten miles OF
railroad 10 New Hampshire it would
still provide Brattleboro and Wind
ham county the new outlet that 1t so
much needs and desires. A special
session of the legislature is an expen-
sive luxury and not to be assembled
idly or on trivial pretext, but only
in case of real and urgent need. We
do not believe that the Senate would
stand in the way of JUS arrange
ment. The question now is differ
ent one than 1t was before the legis-
lature in January. Then 1t was whet-
her to take from the Central Vermont
at Brattleboro any of it's property or
privileges while now the question is
whether the state al sit idly by and
see Brattleboro an its surrounding
country surely and forever crippled,
without at least trying to prevent the
wrong.

FRANK E. HOWE, Editor and pub'r.

The celebration Wednesday OF the
fiftieth anniversary of the marriage OF
Mr.. and Mrs. Leon LaMarre was of
more than passing interest. They were
among the pioneers of that stream of
French Canadian emigration which has
made possible the industrial develop
ment of New England to It's present
extent. From this one family settling
here during the first year of the Civil
War the French colony in Bennington
has grown to about $50 families who
have added greatly to the prosperity
and progress of the town. The cele-
bration of the anniversary was a
general holiday among the French
people of Bennington and every fea
ture and detail of the fete was a sue
cess.
