THE WAY TO "REORGANIZE. -

The first effort at achieving reorgan-
ization of the Republican party, which
took place at Washington with dozen
governors in conference, lasted just
long enough to impress participants
that it was undertaken twelve months
too soon at least. The course of events
was comparatively simple, but straight
enough to point the moral.
The preliminary, as laid down by
Senator Cummins of Iowa, was the
square admission that Roosevelt was
done out of the presidential nomination
in the Chicago convention by fraud.
Mr.. Cummins' solution sets forth as an
absolute prerequisite for the future is a
convention in which representation shall
be accorded to the Southern States
solely upon their Republican voting
strength. The "dead States" are to be
put away in political mortuary vault,
where they belong, and prevented from
furnishing the means for further fraud
or chicanery.
McGovern of Wisconsin stated the
second principle as the voluntary re-
tirement of the old leaders who have
been repudiated by the people. This
was another revelation of the influence
of the Progressives' great campaign
against the bosses and interests.
When party convention to ''redefine
principles" when preached the dabsters
discovered finally that the only way in
which to hope to get Progressives to
consider any joint action between Pro-
gressives and Republicans was for a
positive and unequivocal acceptance of
the principles of the Progressive plat
form by the Republicans.
This is and must be an ultimatum
from the Progressives. There is but
one way in which they can keep their
pledge to the people. Fusion or daily
ing with reaction will not be considered
moment. They must go forward;
and any other party which is looking to
the future can move forward on the
same platform. Boston Journal.

He said that eighteen of these areas,
containing $3.50, 600 acres, had been Sc
lected in New Hampshire, Maryland,
Virginia, West Virginia, North Caro-
lima, Tennessee and Georgia, occupying
the watersheds of the important navi-
gable streams.

the report says, ut doubtless will be
practicable to cooperate with the sur
rounding private owners both in fire
protection and in conservative lumber
ing, and thus in the end bring most of
the Appalachian region to safe con-
ditioa as to watershed protection and to
a much better forest productivity.
The report held to the 1907 estimate
that it will be unnecessary to acquire
more than 600, 900 acres in the White
mountains.

PROPOSALS OF AMENDMENT,

The legislative committee consider
ing proposals of amendment to the
State constitution has, it is understood,
acted upon several of them, voting to
report favorably on five and adversely
on one. Those on which favorable
action has been taken are the pro-
posals to confer the veto power, on the
governor, to be over-ridden only by a
two-thirds vote in each branch of the
Legislature; to change the holding of
biennial elections from September to
November and meetings of the Legis-
lature from October to January; the
calling for yea and nay vote by five
Representatives and one Senator;
changing Judge" to Justice" in the
designation of members of the Su-
preme Court and empowering the Su-
preme Court to revise chapter of the
constitution.
Unfavorable action by the committee
was on the proposal to make Senators
and Representatives ineligible to any
office created by the legislators during
their term of service in it.
The committee is to be commended
for its decision to make a favorable
recommendation on the five proposals
for they are all in the line of progress
and will without doubt operate to the
signal advantage of the State. 1t is
to be regretted, however, the commit
tee failed to take similar action on pro-
posal six relating to the ineligibility of
members to offices created, during their
service in the law-making body.
The wisdom of such a provision must
be apparent to those who view the
matter calmly. 1t would silence the
tongue of scandal, and safeguard leg
islators against the charge of self
seeking. Under it's operation there
would be no ground for such gossip as
was banded about from one end of the
State to the other as the result of an
election to the judiciary a few years
ago.
1t is to be hoped that before it makes
its final report the committee will de-
eide to rescnd its previous action and
recommend the adoption of proposal 6.

Cincinnati Has a seeo,ooo Fire.

Cincinnati, Dec. 10. Three of this
city's leading establishments as well as
more than hundred offices were de-
stroyed by fire here tonight when the
Gibson hotel, the Rendiggs-Lothman
company, department store, the w.
L. Douglas Shoe company and the offices
of the Missouri Pacific railway were
swept completely by the flames while
the top ten floors of the Union Trust
building, History fireproof structure,
was practically Quilted.
Whether there was any loss of life is
undetermined.
The loss as estimated by the manage
ment of the Gibson House is $3.50, 000;
Rendiggs-L othman, 500, 900; Douglas
Shoe company, $25, 200; Missouri Pacific
Offices, 5000, and the Union Trust
building, 5000, 900; total, $500,

ON CHURCH SERVICES.

To the Editor of The Messenger:
| went to church the other night, l
heard man with message. There
was an audience worthy of the man.
1t was refreshing. 1t was joint SER
vice, rich, uplifting, satisfying. Meth
odist. Baptist, Congregationalist, Uni
versalist, all approved of the text, the
doctrine, the sermon, the lesson, the
praying, and the singing.
Next week they will go back to their
several empty churches and contrast
their poverty with the man, the mes
sage, the audience, and the uplift of last
Sunday night. Business combinations
succeed with a great success. The
theory of the churches seems to be that
the thinner we split up the more true
Christianity there will be. 1t isn't so.
FULLER C. SMITH.
Nov. &c, 1912.
The man he heard was John M.
Thomas, president of Middlebury col
lege. The message was the Golden
Rule. 1t was good service, as he says.
If all were like it there wouldn't be so
much of a church problem as there is
now. His prediction concerning next
Sunday is about right. What he says of
combination in business can't be dis
puted, and what he infers about COM
bination in church matters makes a
strong appeal. Church unity is nothing
new. 1t has long been advocated. 1t
has been urged by The Messenger be-
fore. And what of this? If it is de-
srable in place as large as st. Adams,
isn't it probable that it is even more
DESTROYS in the smaller communities? 1t
is. and the truth of it is being recog-
nized more and more. There will be
fewer churches per capita and more
real religion per soul in Vermont as the
years go by. st. Adams Messenger

RUTLAND ROAD TO FILE APPEAL
BURLINGTON OBJECTIONABLE
RE-OPENS CONTROVERSY.

Montpelier, Dec. 10. 1t is definitely
understood that the railroads have de-
cided to appeal from the order for a
new union station at Burlington which
was filed here today, and within the
next week the Rutland line will file the
necessary papers. The appeal will be
upon the broad ground that the law
allows in such cases, the railroad
merely asserting thatit finds the order
Objectionable.
The public service law of 1910 pro-
vides for an appeal from orders of this
kind which shall amount to rehearing
before the supreme court sitting on
questions of fact as well as of law. So
this appeal may mean that the whole
matter will be threshed over again, to
determine whether or not the order is
justified.

FIRE DRIVER SPARES BUGGY
But Engines Tender Close Be-
hind II Rams Elevated Pillar


An alarm of fire from Forty fourth
street and First avenue early yester-
day evening took Engine and tender
on the jump from the station on Fifty
first street, between Lexington and
Third avenues.
AS Driver George Brannigan of the
engine started to turn down First
avenue he saw a white horse and buggy
going south on that avenue. He pulled
his horses back as hard as he could and
turned them up on First avenue.
The engine frightened the horse on
the buggy and he shot down First ave-
nue., dragging the buggy, containing A..
Zieger, of 843 East Forty-fith street,
and woman and baby.
Down the street a few blocks Joe
Donovan, jr., son of Capt. Donovan of
Engine 8, stopped the runaway. Mean
while the engine swung around to the
curb without overturning, but close
behind the engine was the tender,
driven by Alexander Burgart. Bur-
CART swung his horses by the engine and
crashed into an elevated pillar.
The pole of the tender snapped short
and the tender itself was jammed
against the pillar. Burgart was hurt
by the impact, but chung to his horses.
The five firemen on the tender were
thrown tO the street hut Uere unhurt

NEW AUTO FIRE TRUCK IS
WRECKED.

For few brief hours yesterday the
Boston fire department was the proud
possessor of brand new, shining auto
mobile ladder truck. 1t was driven
proudly around the Strandway, South
Boston, bells changing and horn footing.
Mayor Fitzaerald took a ride on it and
pronounced it the best piece of appara-
tus the city ever had. And then-the
brand new automobile ladder truck
crashed head on into the side of trolley
car and was wrecked.
Four men riding on the truck, and the
conductor of the car, which was bound
from City Point to Kendall square,
were injured. The accident occurred at
P and East Third streets, and the crash
of the collision could be heard for
blocks.
The new truck with it's shiny brass
and glistening paint, had been received
on Monday by the department. Yes
terday it was sent out with the firemen
who are to be detailed to operate it
for trial trip, and from early morning
until the time of the accident at four
O'Clock, was run through the district,
giving the men practice in swinging it
around the corners of the crowded
streets.
Shortly before noon, Mayor Fitzger-
aid, Councilman Kenny and a party
who had been inspecting the new aqua
rum at City Point saw the truck on
the Strandway and promptly demand
ed ride. Hanging onto their hats for
dear life they were scooted along the
wide highway and were jerked around
corner in the approved department
style.
THAT is the finest piece of apparatus
the department has ever had" declared
the mayor, as he wiped the tears from
his eyes and Strengthened his necktie at
the close of the ride. And, as the party
went proudly off, the firemen looked for
more worlds to conquer.
Shortly after o'clock they found
one. A chill test" was ordered up the
hill on P street from the Strandway.
Thomas Callahan of Engine 2 was driv-
ing. Capt. William Lynch of head
quarters, Michael Ryan of Chemical II q,
and Donald Lowman, the demonstration,
were riding.
AS the truck, with its bell changing,
swung around in East Third street, a
City Point-Kendall square trolley
bumped along. Before the emergency
brake, quickly applied by Lowman,
could act, the truck hit the car at
right angles.
Capt. Lynch and Ryan were thrown
to the street. unconscious. Callahan
was prevented from leaving his seat
by the steering wheel, and Lowman
received severe shaking up. Charles
