LEGISLATURE OPENED
Expected Full State Republican
Ticket VIII be Elected on First
Ballot.

The general assembly of the state
of Vermont opens at Montpelier at
10 O'Clock this morning. It is ex-
pected that Charles A. Plumley Of
Mortified will be elected speaker
without serious opposition. The
only other possible candidate is
Charles D. Watson, democrat, of st.
Adams. No progressive candidate
will be presented. There is a lively
contest for the president pro temTore
in the senate, the candidates being
Porter H. Dale of Island Pond and j..
A. Babbitt of Bellows Fails. Mr..
Babbitt claimed yeste' day that he
would win the battle. Il locked yes
terday as though the democrats
would not insist on the counting
of TIE ballots cast in the September
election. If this is not done, the
legislature, as soon as organization
is complete, win appoint committee
to canvass the vote and as soon Us
their report is made proceed TO the
election of the state ticket TheI e
is every indication that the full re-
publican state ticket will be elected
on the first ballot by a majority of
20 or more. 1t is expected that
Harry Black of Newport wills De ap-
pointed clerk of the house ari that
G. A. G. Jackson of Montpelier will
be appointed reporter of the senate.
Proposed Legislation
Some of the legislation that will
receive serious attention this session
will be the revision of the tax laws
to give the individual an equal op-
portunity with the banks for loan
ing money in Vermont, a primary
election law in some form, the pro-
posed changes to the state constitu-
ton, a corrupt practices act and
law requiring the publicity of cam
paign expenses. The merchants of
the state are trying to secure a law
that will bring merchants making a
false statement regarding the stock
of goods they carry directly subject
to the law without the long legal pro-
ceedings now necessary.
Educational Changes
The educators Of the state will try
to get law passed that will make
important changes in the education
work of the state. They will ask
that a state board of education con-
sisting of seven members appointed
by the governor and confirmed by
the senate be created. The members
are to serve without pay except ac-.
tual expenses. The board is to Sc
lect the state superintendent of edu-
cation and fix his salary, have full
control of the certification of teach
ers, inspect and report on the ex-
penditure of state funds appropriat-
ed for schools and colleges, have
full control of school business, fix
the courses of study in the schools,
arrange all educational meetings and
make a biennial report and recon-
mendations to the legislature They
will also ask that the school year be
fixed at $50 days of school and the
compulsory age Of school attendance
be fixed at 6 years, that the tuition
in high schools be raised from $24
to $36 a year and that local super
intendents be given power to expel
students undesirable to have in
school and help the teachers slap
them. They also recommend a
pension for retired teachers the funds
to be under control of the state board
of education
