vermont,s Mountain Rule.

The mountain rule" in Vermont pol
itics is coming in for its occasional
cudgeling, but despite the very complete
cases made out against it--by its critics
the chances are that governors will
continue to be chosen alternately from
each side of the mountain for some years
to come, as they have been for over
fifty years past. For one, we cannot
see how rule that merely insures a
fair and equal placing of the chief ex-
ecutiye office among the constituency
that sustains and supports it is per-
version Of government or convenient
tool by which politicians parcel out the
spoils. 1t is carrying out for the state
the same rule that generally applies in
other elective units. The principle that
Offices ought to be scattered is even
recognized by the federal constitution,
which forbids one state holding both
the presidency and the vice presidency.
There is no natural reason why ability
such as the governorship demands is
not provided as fully ON one side of
the mountain as on the other, and why
swinging the office back and forth does
not command as good service as would
be likely to result from selection with
out any regard to locality. If weak or
positively unfit men climbed into the
governors seat solely through the opera
ton of this rule, while good men were
kept out, it would be another thing, but

serves to checl1nate any little scheme

30 x 40 feet. Arranged conveniently with bins
and spouts SO that neal cracked corn and oats
can be spouted in bags. 4 run Of stone TO
grind the meal which runs directly in the bin
from the elevator. We had an iron mill substi-
tuted for two other run Of stone, the change
costing us 500. which greatly adds 70 the speed
OF grinding, also 20 the quantity. We have Just
completed a new iume Corn Is drawn from
the track In wagon holding 800 pounds and
spouted directly to q bin in the cellar holding
four loads. From this bin il is carried by an
elevator TO bin holding 1900 bushels or TO a
bin In the flour house holding 800 bushels. oats
are carried to another part OF the mill to bin
holding about 800 bushels. Good water power,
ele9tric lighted, and telephone connections.
FLOUR HOUSE

BUSINESS.
We have good coal business that goes with

expenses was $3G45.53. We have a very large
custom grinding trade and we calculate that
