ed. Brattleboro is in the territory COW
cred by the Concord, N. H., agency.
Capt. II. c. Streeter, who has a pension
office in Crosby block, expects that
his income will be affected somewhat by
the change, as he will not have to make
out vouchers, for which he gets % cents
each, but the other branches of his bus
mess will remain unchanged. For the
first time in history the pensioners will
be paid without the Formally Of vouch-
ers. the checks serving the same purpose
by a requirement of Endorsement by the
pensioner in the presence of two Witness
es. The pensioner also must show to
the indorsers his certificate, the number
of which must tally with the certificate
number on the checks. The new system
obviates the necessity of receipts from
the pensioner. The payments for the
present quarter will be made in January
through the Concord agency as usual,
but after that they will come from
Washington. Under this system the old
soldiers will save 81 a year, which they
now pay for having their Vouchers
made out.

MONTPELIER. Dec. 20.

1St SV'
The legislature goes home today after
completing II weeks of work, the main
feature of which was the passage of the
fate rate taxation bill. But little has
been done in the way of constructive
legislation, although several recommen-
dations have been made by Governor
Fletcher. His recommendations, con-
tanned in a message to the general as
sembly Thursday, concerning the crea-
ton of a purchasing agent for the state
will probably result in a bill being in
troduced soon after the legislature re-
convenes on January s. to provide for
such an official.
The special committee to investigate
the need of more room at the capitol
Will probably made a report early in
January and it is expected that 1t will
recommend the erection of an office
building rather than an addition to the
capitol. The lower branch has ordered
to lie the bill to provide teachers train
ing courses for the benefit of rural
schools This Is one of the pet measures
of Mason S. Stone, superintendent of ed
u~cation. Another educational measure
Of interest has passed the House this
week. 1t provides for the teaching OF
agriculture, the manual arts and domes-
tic sciences in the public schools. This
bill Is expected to pass the Senate
without opposition.
This week the members from the
Windham county delegation have not
taken any prominent part in the bust
ness of the assembly other han men
toned elsewhere.
The House passed a joint resolution
Thursday thanking the widow of Larkin
G.. Mead for the bust of Abraham Lin
coin, presented recently to the state OF
Vermont. II occupies a place in the
corridor OF the capitol.
In connection with the several bills re-
lating to municipal courts introduced

Thursday. The $50, 900 additional APP
preparation to cover the various bills for
state aid for towns will take care of the
bills introduced to aid the towns of
Nottingham n Jamaica.
The state fair appropriation bill pass
ed the Senate after the $4,000 appro-
p~riation was cut to $4,000. The House
will offer no opposition to the measure.
Having discussed hens, hogs, pond
lilies and dogs this week the legislators
turned their attention to forwarding
measures to third readings and this
(Friday) afternoon at least a score of
bills will probably be put upon their
passage. The majority of these meas
ures are unimportant.
