THE NEXT LEGISLATURES


II Ia time to begin TO consider
F seriously the election of representa-.
tiyes to the next legislature and an
measures that the people desire
iopted
AS far as Vermont Is concerned,
the presidential contest is ended.
The delegates have been elected,
aud no amount Of newspaper talk
win change the way they Will vote.
AS we have repeatedly said, We be-
lieye all can be trusted, Including
The three over whose probable action
there has been some controversy
Let us therefore consider things
that concern ms more and must be
discussed before we can arrive at a
just conclusion thereon and know
what best TO enact into law. or
what notifications are desirable In
he present statutes.
Now Is the time to consider these
questions,
Below We outline one, OF seyera
important changes, that we believe
-hould be made
In the main the present local OPP
tion law il working better than any
Act We have had to regulate the sale
" intoxicating liquors In Vermont.
II Is not perfect and might be i'm
proved
To this end We suggest the re-
peallng Of sections 5l04 and 5l05
and substituting therefor new sec
Ion that would provide for the vote,
on this question, as follows:
First. to see II this town viii vote
0 license the sale Of malt liquors. rs
dow provided under third class
license, only
second. TO see If the town win
vote 10 License hotels OF certain
class. especially those catering large
81 to &c sumhmcr tourist business.
Third. TO see II the town viii vote
70 license the sale OF intoxicating
liquors q all kinds, as now done
under the first and second class IT,
ccnses. etc
u the first failed to carry. no vote
would be taken under the other pro-
visions az the law
II II did carry then ii would be
optional with the towns TO vote on
the other proposition AT the same or
another meeting.
All true citizens seek TO regulate
he traffic In intoxicating liquors IN
the best possible manner
Under the present law town
must first vote 10 license everything
before ii can vote on the simple
proposition OF third class license
We believe that change IN the
aw, as outlined briefly above. would
30 for the best interest Of the state
anu Its Citizens
We know Of one town at least
hat has voted steadily for llencse
rom the passage cf the present Act.
,at with the distinct understanding
lat only third class license should
ic granted or course II was only
a geutlemcns agreement but itl
las been faithfully adhered 10.
The result has been very satEsfac-
DRY
The sac Of hard stuff has stead
" decreased and there has been
'reat decrease In drunkenness. etc
As this ls one OF the border towns

and conclusive.
Il has been demonstrated that the

Heart toHeart
Talks.
THE MELIORIST.
BY EDWIN A. NYE.

Which are you-an optimist, pes
simist or a meliorist?
The optimist believes in the ultimate
outcome Of good. Which is a reason
able and satisfying belief. But
Many optimists go further and try
to make themselves and their fellows
believe that all is right with the world.
This sort of optimist asks you to smile
because there is nothing anywhere to
be miserable about.
Which is mere soothing sirup.
And the pessimist? The pessimist
sees only the seamy side. He refuses
to smile at all. He is like the old wo-
man who always felt bad when she
felt good for fear she might feel bad
In his view everything is going to the
eternal bowwows.. ;,-.
There is sort of honest pessimism
that is more or less worthy of praise.
1t is the pessimism that is deeply con-
cerned about the real evil that is in the
world and cries out against it. He who
notes the wrong conditions and tries to
wake up his fellows to realization Of
these conditions is--if l may use the
term-a good kind of pessimist.
However
AS between the tptimist who bids
you smile and smile. regardless of
what may be, and the pessimist who
scowls and scolds because all things
are bad, what view shall we take?
Why not be meliorist?
The meliorist says to the optimist,
"All things are not good He says to
the pessimist, ''All things are not bad. -
Says the meliorist: Things are good
bad and Indifferent. Let US not deceive
ourselves. Let us face things as they
are And, above ALL says the meliO-
rist-
''Let US help to make things betterE
1t is easy to sit down and smile and
declare that all's we'll with the world.
Also it is easy to find fault with al
things and to declare that tendencies
are toward evil, and evil only.
The optimist may smile to his hearts
content-and get nowhere.
The pessimist may glover and chidt
to his hearts content-and effect moth
ing.
But the meliorist does not smile wheI
there is nothing to smile about, no.
does he scold when scolding will do NJ
good. He puts his shoulder to thu
| wheel and helps!
Why not be a meliorist?

FILED DURING YEAR
Survey Shows 363 Suits Filed
in County. - 262 Mar
riage Licenses.

A survey of the total number OF
suits filed in the Wayne circuit court
thus far in 1912 shows that almost one
third of them were applications TO
legally sever marital ties. Out OF
total of 363 suits filed to date 106 were
divorce proceedings.
A comparison OF the total number
of marriage licenses issued by the
county clerk with the number OF d.
vorces asked indicates that there
were couples wishing to be married.
There were 264 marriage licenses re-
corded on the books this afternoon.
Wayne county is one of the counties
of the state that leads in the number
of divorces applied for and granted.
The divorce evil attained such proper
tions III Wayne county early this year
that Judge Fox adopted stringent court
rules governing the hearing OF these
cases, chief of which was the enforce
ment of the rule that the defendant
must appear in court il he were living
within the jurisdiction of the court.
This, it is believed. resulted in the
granting of fewer divorces.
