A new enemy OF the snow has come
in the automobile. Its influence, added
to that of the trolley cars and other
coRcomitants of urban existence is bring
ing the city into renewed declaration
of war against the snow as soon as il
falls
This is not the attitude of the eoun-
try. 1t was not always the attitude of
the city In the days of the horse cars
not few American municipalities in
seasons of heavy snow witnessed the
transfer of traffic from cars on the
rails to vehicles on runners. The saw
ing in horse power was enormous, both
in traction and in track clearing, and
the convenience to other users of the
highway was very great. Cities in the
snow belt oft equipped themselves there
fore for carrying passengers in this way.
Put electricity put an end to all that.
The facilities which the electric com
panies have for track clearing encour-
age their traffic carriers to keep on
wheels, thus materially affecting the
whole transportation system. Now
comes the automobile to reinforce the
same tendencies 1t has no counterpart
on runners any more than does the
trolley. So when people in metropoli-
tan Boston and other thickly settled
sections of the country contrast the

that Mr.. DeBoer himself is not so sensi-
tive regarding the matter as the com
planning newspaper is, for the cartoon
was nothing more or less than a humor-
GUS contribution to the gubernatorial
campaign and will have no more effect
than a joke is calculated TO have. In
states where the great newspapers are
published, no candidate of prominence
gets through a campaign without being
caricatured as to his facial expression o.
in connection with some OF his views;
and no harm is considered to have been
done when the cartoons are faithful to
the conditions.
In this particular case in Vermont
journalism, there was no particular ami
mus in the matter, SO far as we can see.
The likeness OF Mr.. DeBoer was good
and the only variation from the normal
was the expression of grief over the very
slight criticism that has been brought
to bear on Mr. DeBoer There surely
was nothing to offend in the cartoon.
Doubtless, Mr.. DeBoer himself had
good laugh over it.

Mr.. Deantt,s Candidacy.

The candidacy of Edward H. Deayitt
of this city for reelection as state
treasurer is based upon the substantial
foundations OF proved fitness for the po-
sition and compliance with weil.es-
tablis custom Mr. Deayitt is the
seventeenth man to hold the office and
the average length of the term is eight
wears. His three immediate predecessors
served four terms each. so that another
term for Mr.. Deavitt will give him only
the customary eight years OF service.
The records show that former state
treasurers have served as follows; Ira
Allen, eight years; Samuel Mattocks
fourteen years, Benjamin Swan, thirty
three yeats Augustine Clarke, -four
years; Al3n Wardner, one year; Henry
+. James, three years, John Spaulding,
five years Elisha p. Jewett, one year;
George Howes, six years; John A. Page,
one year; Henry NJ. Bates, six years
John b. Page, six years; John a, Page,
sixteen years, making seventeen years
in all; William H. Dubois. eight years,
Henry +. Field. eight years; John J..
Bacon, eight years.
Thus 1t will be seen that unless Mr..
Deavtt is renominated the presidents
Of the past thirty years will be broken,
for since 1882 no state treasurer has
held office for less than eight years.
The principal argument however, is
that Mr. Deavitt has conducted the inn
portant duties Of his Office to the entire
satisfaction of the people OF the state.
The position was not created for the
purpose of awarding political honors,
but in order that the finances of the
state might be properly handled No
valid reason can be advanced in favor OF
a change unless the desire of other can
didates can be considered valid, A new
man must learn duties with which Mr..
Deavitt is entirely familiar duties which
include the supervision of insurance mat
tiers. with the cooperation OF the secre
tary of state. If business corporation
obtains faithful and efficient treasurer
it keeps him indefinitely. The state is
big business corporation and its vel
fare will not permit frequent changes.
The first consideration certainly ought
to be the good of the state
The journal is glad TO learn that the
outlook for Mr.. Deavitt's denomination
is excellent He deserves another term
and his reelection will be to the adyan-
tage of Vermont. Montpelier Journal

TURN ABOUT IS FAR PLAY.

Inasmuch as the United States is send
ing so much money to Europe in tourist
travel, it is reasonable enough that the
United States should wish to get some
of it back with tourists from Europe;
hence the cause of the advertising cam
paign now being conducted through vari-
Gus countries of Europe, with view to
setting forth the attractions of the
North American continent. Compare
lively few Europeans come to the United
States for the mere purpose of visiting,
because the people of adequate means
have not been educated to anything ex-
cept sojourns in countries neighboring
their Own, or, at the most, countries
embraced within their own continent.
We may he able to induce these people
to believe that there is something worth
seeing in the United States Certainly,
the exhibitions of commercial activity,
the tremendous rush and hustle of the
great cities and the sights Of towering
skyscrapers are not matched in their
own countries and are worth seeing by
them. Besides, the United States is
not destitute of scenery of a different
sort than most Europeans are accus-
toned to see.

planned as due to carelessness and poor
management, and it is certainly true
that in model buildings, well looked aft
er, no such conditions as are described IN
New York exist. Opinions may differ az
to whether the more complicated devices
take the place of the open window, but
at least no apparent lack of ventilation
is noted. A good many hold that while
the New York schools may be bad, some
mechanical system is indispensable in
modern school buildings DIR. Anna ia
cobb, on the other hand, writes:
Unfortunately, the systems of ven

are filed with foul air, which is a per-
petual detriment TO the development and
health Of our future citizens. Open win

ton can always be returned to as last
resort. and on the whole it is fairly good,
though, as all who have had experience
with it know, il has serious defects,
such drafts and sudden changes Of
temperature Perhaps one lesson Of the
discussion is the need for more air space
and less overcrowding OF schools. The
more closely the buildings are filed, the
more diff I the problem becomes, and
the more serious the consequences Of any
