TILT OVER WITNESSES.
Senators Gallinger and Stone Asked for
Appearance Of Various Persons.

Washington, May 1.-THE members
OF the Senate finance committee dis
cussing Canadian reciprocity had quite
heated tilt yesterday, over witnesses.
Senator Stone demanded TO know when
Allen and Graham, attorneys said to be
employed by the national grange, were
to appear in response to his request
that they be summoned to tell Of their
employment by interests opposed TO
reciprocity. Senator Stone wanted to
know if the attorneys had been noti-
fed. He was told that they had been.
Senator Gallinger in turn demanded
that some of those who have made
vigorous efforts to accelerate public
opinion in favor Of reciprocity" should
be asked to appear before the commit
tee.
Senator Williams retorted that under
these circumstances, President Taft
ought to be summoned to testify to
what he had done TO accelerate public
opinion" on the question.
Senator Gallinger said he was OPP
posed to summoning attorneys for va
rious organizations, but that if il were
to be done, both sides should be heard.
He asked, therefore, that John Norris
and Herman Ridder, representatives of
the American Newspaper Publishers as
ISOLATION, be requested to appear before
the committee and tell what their or
ganization had done to help the reci
procity sentiment,
Mr.. Norris is in Washington and Is
expected to be heard within q day or
two.

The clerk read a letter from A. r.
Halves, state forester, addressed to the
first selectman OF Barre, warning him
to beware of forest fires and TO take
every precaution and establish patrols TO
watch for fires The clerk said that
the letter was evidently intended for
Barre Town but was sent to him
The clerk stated that he had the dog
warrants for the year to be given to
the police officers and the first con-
stable and he hoped that this year they
would be made effective as for the past
nine years he said that the dog license
tax in Barre had been nothing but a
farce. He said that there had never
been but two or three prosecutions and
perhaps a dozen dogs shot for violations
of the LICENSE law when there should
have been 80 or 100.
The health committee reported that
they had investigated the building ON

SENDING VERMONT MONEY OUT

A party of Vermont bankers are now
in the middle West as the guests OF
certain interests in the ambitious state
OF Oklahoma, the bankers, undoubtedly
having part at least of their expenses
paid; they are travelling by special car
from Chicago and will be given motor
trips throughout the Oklahoma region
All of this can mean but one thing and
that is that Oklahoma is putting in its
bid for Vermont savings bank funds to
be turned into development Of Okla
homa enterprises. The Oklahoma inter-
ests hope that by personal inspection OF
the states prospects the Vermont bank.
ers will be convinced enough to send
money out there. With the purpose of
the Oklahoma interests there can be lit
tie, or no, criticism from the Vermont
standpoint: it is undoubtedly legitimate
for them to invite Vermont bankers and
entertain them royalty.
But from the standpoint of those who
are interested in Vermont's future there
is hope that this aud similar excursions

Cheer for the Governor.

Brattleboro people realize fully what
an important part Governor Mead has
played in bringing the local railroad sit
uation to point where satisfactory
settlement seems assured, and they
deeply appreciate his good Offices in
the matter 1t was the influence Of
the governor that brought about last
Fridays conference metween the heads
of the New Haven and Grand Trunk
systems, and his urgent appeal that
the two roads attempt a compromise
in accordance with the best interests
of the state was no doubt largely re-
sponsible for the frank discussion of
the Connecticut valley situation that
followed Governor Mead is keen
business man, and he was quick to real
ize what Vermont would lose if the
Boston & Maine was forced to build
its Brattleboro-S South Vernon link in
New Hampshire, As soon as the imme-
diate probability of such thing came
to his attention in the form of petit
tion for an extra session of the legisla-
ture, he turned his attention toward
bringing about a meeting between the
officials of the two roads involved in
the controversy, feeling certain that the
result Of such a conference would OBJ
waite the necessity of an extra session
and at the same time safeguard the
welfare of Brattleboro and the rest of
the state
The story OF the meeting in Boston a
week ago is testimonial to the
governors sound judgment President
Mellen offered concessions that remove
the chief obstacles in the path of the
Crank Trunks plan to construct a
double track road from Windsor to
rattleboro-eoneessio that are in
valuable TO the Grand Trunk and in
return for which il cannot fail to allow
the Boston & Maine a right of way for
double track through the Brattleboro
yard II is unnecessary at this time
to dwell at length upon what this
means to this town, facing as it is a
neriod of uneXampled industrial growth
hose continuance depends largely upon
q. commensurate improvement Of rail
road service II is fitting, however, that
all the people of Vermont are more
aware Of the extent to which We are

A Liquor Law With Teeth.

That the local option liquor law has

effectively in Windbam county ran has
been done this week by States Attor-
ney Frank Il Barber Of this town. As
result Of indictments secured by him
and information filed by him against
the proprietor and assistants in the

lected $1,000 in fines, which is the
largest amount ever secured in this
county at one time in the way Of pen

and many counts were mol pressed Had
the case been contested and each count
been tried out no one knows what the

The fact that the respondents pleaded
guilty to charges of selling on Sundays
and by the bottle and that fines were
imposed upon not only the licensee but

In addition to the fines mentioned Mr.
Barber collected $500 on a liquor case
from Bellows Falls and 1925 on an
assault case, making total of S2,275
