TIME Crackers were 80 busy last
week in playing double
headers that Manager AL
perman didn't have much chance TO
whip mis- faltering team in line.
This week things should run 4 tri-
he easier. Only five games are
scheduled-two with the Montgom-
ery Billikens. Of pug1lrstic memory,
and three with Mobile.
The Biuikens open today The
suggestion that the entire team
be put under bond to keep the
peace has been dismissed as un-
necessary. but Cracker players are
likely to hunt in couples until the
blood-thirsty Dobbs and his two
listed cohorts have departed
It will, of course, be recalled that
the last time the BilIikens were
here a mess Of them jumped on

cerned.

A PROPOSED RAILROAD CHARTER.

II is difficult to imagine any rea
sonable ground on which any member
of the Vermont Legislature can oppose
the bill for charter over the Vermont
territory that would be traversed by
a railroad from Greenfield to Whining
ton and Manchester, Vt. A state that
should forbid the contraction of an in
ter-state railroad would not stand much
chance to get interstate business
Greenfield, Mass, Gazette.
The reason for the establishment of
a railroad is the public necessity for
the road, including the facilities for
shipment of products out and. the receipt
OF products necessary for the communi-
ties, together with the need for passen-
ger transportation. Therefore, if the
Vermont communities interested in the
proposed interstate railroad are to be
benefited by the system, the antag-
onism of other communities should car
ry weight in the question whether or
not charter shall be granted. Even
II those other communities were to suf
Ter somewhat in diverted trade, that
should not stand in the way of the ad-
vancement of the Vermont communities
which may desire the railroad; and
hindrance at this time is simply post
poning the action which conditions win
make imperative. But before the char
ter is granted the legislature of Vermont
should be in possession of the facts con-
,erning the attitude of the towns OF
Wilmington and Manchester and those
sections which would be tapped by the
proposed railroad. If they wish the
railroad and If the legislature is con-
'nced that the proposed outlet would
,e of real benefit, there is little reason
ible ground for refusal to give the
,harter rights so far as Vermont is
concerned.

Here's hoping the new Rhodes scholar
from Vermont, Wayne G. Bosworth,
formerly of Bristol does his full share
toward living down the reputation for
poor scholarship which has been given
American Rhodes scholars in general by
a faculty member of Oxford university.
The criticism must be taken as accurate
inasmuch as there is no other means
for determining the situation than from
the Oxford faculty. But if the criti-
cism be we'll founded, it must be adj
mitted that there is one excuse for poor
scholarship at the start Of the course
because of the necessity that the Amer
lean students adjust themselves to en-
tirely new conditions, which takes a
considerable amount of time, with cor
responding detraction from college
work; and, having made poor start,
1t is difficult under such handicap
to catch up and make creditable show
ing, taking as basis for comparison
the work OF the student from the Brit
ish isles who needs no adjusting to
changed conditions.

We should say that the Concord post
office force must be remarkably pro-
ficient in order to be enabled to send
that letter to the proper addressee.
Therein is proper average maintained
between the stenographers and Uncle
Sans workers. But the writer of the
letter, or perhaps the person who copied
it, represents an entirely too large class
of stenographers no matter whether in
Concord or elsewhere. Added to ig-
norance, they do not show reasonable
powers of observation, for doubtless the
Concord newspaper is fairly well known.

Strong Demand for
Bryan and Wiley

The Cabinet slate-makers
are busy every minute in the
twenty-four hours, and while
favorite sons" are put forward
by every state, there are two
names that appear in most
calculations made up by wise
but unprejudiced guessers.
These names are William
Jennings Bryan and Doctor
Harvey Wiley, and one is evil
dently a popular choice for
Secretary of State while the
other is scheduled by his ad-
mirers for the portfolio of
Agriculture.

admit Them. Bryan!
"Chloroform Them" Taft!

William. Jennings Bryan,
whose exact status III the new
order Of national politics, has
not been exactly determined,
but who nevertheless is ac-
knowledged to be a big part
of the status" has been
spending a good deal of time
in the national capital, and he
has discussed mostly every
thing. He suggests a plan to
admit former Presidents, for
mer Vice e-Presidents and for
mer Speakers of the House
of Representatives to the floor
of the two Houses, with the
privilege to speak upon any
question. "What will we do
with our ex-Presidents?"
He would recommend chloro-
form. He disagreed with the
suggestions Of Mr.. Bryan, but
declared in favor of seats in.
the two bodies of Congress
for members of the Presidents
Cabinet. He likewise declared
in favor Of a single term Of six
years.

The Fourth Class Postmaster

When President Wilson
goes into Office he will find a
tremendous pressure for him
to revoke the order of his pre-
decessor placing fourth class
postmasters in the classified
service. The Democrats in
Washington are talking loud
ly of patronage, and declare
that the civil service has been
greatly overdone. While they
will doubtless continue to re-
coguize the principle, it is
quite sure they will break
loose all the government po-
sit'ons they find to be con-
sistently available for mem
bers of their own party.

The Treasurer of
the United States

The resignation of Lee Nc
Clung, the United States
treasurer with a "Chink"
name, brings out some incon-
sistencies. When McClung
went into Office he gave his
receipt to his predecessor for
$780, 34,o46.8825 the larg-
est transaction on record. His
successor will receive this
amount with a few added mil
lions. The new treasurer will
be bonded for but $3.50, 900,
less than many city or coun-
ty treasurers, and beginning
at once it will take until March
to count the bales of wealth
that passes to the new treasur-
er. Then in March the Dem
ocrats will likely claim the
office, and the counting will
have to be done all over. The
treasurer receives $1,000 a
year.

Educators In South American unlver
sltlca Have More Than Knowi
edge Of Written Lore.

Professors in the universities
throughout South America are often
men who practice their professions
at the same time as they teach. Law
yers, doctors, engineers, architects,
newspaper men, publishers and edi-
tors make up the faculty, says DIR.
Edgar i. Brandon, who has just re-
turned to Washington after a year
spent in the study Of educational in
situations in South America. These
men teach probably only three or
four hours a week, but they come
right in from the actual practice Of
their profession to do this. They
are al men Of considerable learning
and high regulations in their COM
munities. The best physicians, the
best lawyers, and even the. high state
officials all willingly accept profess
sorships in any Of the colleges. This
lends certain dignity to the insti-
buttons which is sometimes lacking
N ths United States IA spite Of our
better teaching methods. These
men, Of course, cannot make a liv-
ing from teaching alone, but they
combine their own profession with
teaching in order to supplement
their income. In proportion to the
time given to teaching, professors
are better paid in Latin America
than in this country.

MORTALITY IN WAR.

War, called by the great Erasmus,
"the malady of princes" has had SO
many victims we will never be able
to reckon them up. However, it is
computed that up to the middle OF
the nineteenth century no less than
86O,O00,OOO men persisted on the
field of battle. ON all probability
the estimate is under, rather than
over, the mark. You may be correct
in thinking that "wars are practical
ly over" among civilized people, but
from the present-day ornaments of
the so-called civilized peoples il
would look as though those in au-
thority had not yet gotten over the
fear of the old terror.

East Indian Custom Works Well,

The native mothers in the neigh

th1ga was a halting place where rows
OK such children might be seen in

Tie water of a hill spring was 50

An English official teeti6ss that
the process was most successful.
There never were such quiet and I'M
