WAYS THAT ARE DARK.

Railroading without a telegraph
operator at the local station, without
even a telephone, with no way of COM
munication and nobody in charge, had
another illustration here Sunday
night, though, fortunately it did not
result in accident and loss Of life.
The railroad men around the local
station are worried and nervous and
decline to talk about railroad affairs,
but various rumors have leaked out,
though perhaps not the full truth,
and there are doubtless some mac
curacies in the reports of the sun
day night affair which providentially
proved TO be comedy instead of a
tragedy The story as told is as fol-
lows
The Sunday evening train for Troy
is due to leave at $3.50 to connect
with the main line at North Benning-
ton. When the train crew got its or
ders. The Banner hasn't heard. AS the
time approached for the train to leave,
the wife of a railroad man. living
some distance from the station, got
an excited telephone message from
North Bennington, telling her to hus-
tie for the station or send somebody
to hold the train from starting as the
milk train was somewhere on the line
hours late and likely to cause ca
tastrophe.
The lady started out and found a
railroad employee in season to hold
the train. Possibly il wouldn't have
started anyway as the train crews
have gotten wise to the dangers Of
the heavy milk traip, with its big
locomotive and speed of so miles per
nour and do not intend 10 get in its
way after one experience
The inciderr shows, however, the
dai gers attendant on cutting off an
important station entirely from COM
mJnication
While this Incident vas being enact
ed at BE .niEston. delayed freight
was coming in from Chatham. 1t had
oroeIs to ccAc to Bennington. but
lost tine coming up tho grade on the
other side Q: the hill. Its crew knew
that the milk train hadn't gone south,
that it was entitled TO the right of
way and that it was impossible TO
communicate with the Bennington
station after the chickens go TO roosr
1t was greatly relieved train crew
when the freight finally reached the
siding in the local yard.
Whether this yarn is all true or
not it is evident that under the con-
dtions that prevail here such a situa-
ton is easily possible. The strangest
thing about it is that the railroad
company itself does not promptly cor
rect the chief evil by putting on a
night man here of its own volition
after the terrible warning it has re-
ceived.

ULSTER KNIFE

the best knife made in this country.
He swears by it when he swears and
whites with it when he whites.
He would be ashamed to cut himself
or be found dead with any other knife
on his person than an Ulster. He
uses it in the summer as we'll as the
winter when everyone admits the
Ulster to be the thing that cuts the
ice.
Griswold has sold the Ulster knife
for years. He also swears by this
make of knife and has given an abso-
lutte guarantee with every knife sold
by him.
We have had less than half a dozen
of these knives returned since we
have been in business, which we have
replaced with no questions asked. al
though in several cases il was no
fault of the maker OF material that
the knife did not prove satisfactory.
Be sure to see Mr.. Clark at work
He is a wizard with the Jack Knife.
Drop in and look over our stock of
ULSTER knives. Every style and
price, but all Of guaranteed quality.

as they went Burgoyne and his In
dams were expected guests at almost
every fireside within reach. And the
memory of those days remained ter
ror inspirer for years mothers using
it as a threat to quiet rebellious or
unwilling children. Many OF those
who were with the patriot army felt
it their first duty TO return to their
families for their protection.
BY a message from Warner to the
Convention sitting in Windsor, on the
great question of the formation of the
State of Vermont, the news of the
danger and the demand for help was
conveyed, -shortly succeeded by the
news of the fall of Ticonderoga,-and
the panic seized them. They were
only held in leash by the elements.

did not believe the enemy would come
this way, and when appraised OF our
defenseless condition had replied, he
had forgotten about that"
Warner, however had not forgotten
and he writes again to the Conven-
ton. that, He should be glad if a
few hills of corn unhoed should not
be a motive sufficient 20 detain men
at home" This prior TO the fall OF
Ticonderoga He never got there
himselfthough he did get to Hubbard
ton, as we have seen.
Following Hubbardton and the re-
treat OF the remnant of our troops to
Fort Edward and later, further south,
was the time for Burgoyne to have
struck a decisive blow. General Rie-
DIESEL. who was on this side of the
Lake and river, saw this. and suggest
ed il to Burgoyne. But he had troub-
les of his own then. The retreating
army had not left the way behind them

From Skenesboro to Fort Edward
was a hard road at best, but especial
~ hard, when every rod of the way
must be cleared of heavy trees felled
to fill the waters, or block the ways.
There was a route by Lake George,
but the General had said, The British
Army never retreats" So the army
had to go over the road their enemies
had made all but impossible While
the provisions and baggage and stores
of other kinds were carried around
by Lake George and thus transferred
TO the needs of the workers in forest
and morass and by the way. Now
was discovered the great need of
those wagons and horses promised
from Canada, and of those men fitted
for such tasks as were just now in eX-
igency, which had never materialized.
Do the best they could they could
hardly get more than four days pro

toiling to make their way to Fort
Edward. 1t was lucky for them t,at
they had the people so badly scared.

sUPT. SMITHS STATEMENT
An Open Letter to the Members OF
the General Assembly.

Gentlemen: The Vermont Anti
Saloon League congratulates you
heartily on your election to mem
bership in the General Assembly of
1912. Your constituents have shown
their confidence in your integrity and
good Judgment by choosing you to
this responsible position. They have
given you a rare opportunity to serve
your State and your fellow citizens.
AS you well know, there is much
political unrest and dissatisfaction
with things as they are at the present
time. The old order is changing.
Men are eager for better conditions
of existence. Numerous remedies are
offered by physicians both of old and
new schools for the diseases of the
body politics. 1t will be for you to
determine which of these suggested
remedies are likely to be efiicacious.
Judging from past experience a
vast mass of supposed improvements
on existing laws will be brought to
your attention. There will be vari-
Gus and often discordant opinions
within and without your honorable
body as to what ought to be done.
We believe you will seek to act in
each case in the way that will best
promote the welfare of The State
morally as well as materially. And
we feel confident that out of your
deliberations good will come to us
all.
The Anti-Saloon League as an or
ganiZation, representing as il does a
large body of our citizenship, is inter
ested in one subject only that will
come to your attention, viz. legisla-
ton relating directly or indirectly to
the liquor traffic and its results. In
common with a rapidly increasing
number of thoughtful people every
where we believe the trafIic i'm intoxi-
eating liquors for beverage use is one
of the greatest evils of our modern
civilization. II is enormously expen-
sive, il is a destroyer of human life
and happiness, it is the prolific
mother Of a whole brood of evils.
Therefore we believe in the speed
lest possible extinction of this traffic.
And we beg to remind you in this
connection that the people of this
State registered their emphatic judg-
ment against the liquor business last
March by giving a majority of over
5000 votes against license. Every
county in the state shared in the
no-license majority. OF our 246 cit
les and towns 225 voted against
license, and in the remaining q mum
icipalities which voted for IL, the yes
majority was reduced about one-third
We believe that the sentiment Of the
State as a whole is very strongly
against the liquor traffic. and that
this sentiment is rapidly increasing
I'm strength.
Al the present writing we do not
know what particular measures bear
