The New Tax Law.

AS will be seen by reference to leg
islative news in another column, the
house and senate have agreed on a
tax measure, which went to the Gov
ernor on Tuesday and was signed by
him yesterday morning. The result
was reached with remarkable prompt
ness, the house concurring without
question in the senate's suggestion
to make the rate for exempt money
five per cent instead Of four and a
half.
The plain English reading Of the
first section would seem to indicate
that the banks we're included in its
provisions; but we are informed that,
in the intent and purpose Of the two
sections taken together. such is not
the case. Whether the banks will
regard this as a discrimination be
tween the classes OF money lenders,
and what, IL any. attitude they will
take in the premises. remain to be
seen. Tuesday nights press dis
patches from Montpelier indicated
that an inclusion Of the banks in the
operations of this bill would un
dOubtedly have meant a veto.

The aPerpe ndIeuIarn Drink.

The new chairman of the Boston
licensing board has ideas of how a
bar should be conducted which
are very different from those which
have been worked into the Vermont
law. Mr.. Fowler Chats his name) is
opposed TO what he calls the perpen-
dicular drink, that is, drink taken
while standing before the bar.
Mr.. Fowler prefers the man who sits
down at table and eats with his
liquor to the man who drinks at a
bar because he feels that the "perpen
dicular" drink is the most vicious ana
destructive in the long run. He
would provide chairs and tables,
where the refreshment could be en-
joyed at leisure. This would make
the saloon attractive. something the
Vermont law discourages. But II is
claimed that while the drinker might
stay in the saloon longer, he would
drink less, not taking his drinks so
close together which tends to pro
duce the effect the advocates of the
perpendicular drink seek to avoid.
The New York Sun comments at
some length on this editorially, say
ing in conclusion: I'VE do not be-
lieve that any people is to be made
sober by legislation; and the final
solution of the liquor question will be
reached only by the natural advance
of public opinion on the matter, the
progress of which has been so mark
ed during the past century. We dc
believe. however. that much might be
accomplished by a change in the
external form of the saloon and that
reformers like Mr.. Fowler are on the
right track in directing public atten-
ton to the evil Of the perpendicular
drink. "-Vergennes Nermonter.
