bill 1877 not only as means of insur'
ing the safe transportation of Its
passengers, but as matter OF sell
protection.
Many times IL has been impressive
" and tragically demonstrated that
even the highest skill and extended
experiece do not avail to avert acct
dents and that fact serves TO render
still more inslstent the duty of plac
ing in charge of locomotives only
men of known experience and demon
strated fitness. 1t will be conceded
that the responsibilities of the sta
tionary engineer are NEITHER as grave
nor the peril of accident as great as
are those of the locomotive engineer
yet many States have deemed it wise
to require stationary engineers &c
pass examinations to prove their cap
ability before they can be legally
employed.
Both. the reasonableness - The
necessity of - ''' approved yester
day by the House are so obvious
there ought to be no question of its
prompt enactment in concurrence by

commendahle Action.

BY recons dering its adverse vote
on House bill 1877, ordering 1t to a
third reading and finally passing it,
the House Of Representatives has
taken step that will receive and
merit universal commentator. This
is the measure providing that IA J.
roads shall not employ as a locomo-
tive engineer any man who has not
had two years experience as fireman
CT engineers he per, nor as a conduc'
tor any man who has not served a
similar period Of time as brakeman.
In view of the plain purpose of the
bill to safeguard the travelling public
the earlier vote refus ng TO order il
to a third reading was a surprise and
disappointment to those who realized
its full significance and the measure
Of protection Il would undoubtedly
afford. However, the later action Of
the House has corrected that mistake
and dissipated the disappo ntment
resulting from it,
The one and only aim Of this bill
is to prevent accidents resulting from
ineXperience on the part Of those
in the responsible position Of locomO-
tive engineers. Neither labor nor pol
itical consideration are involved. II
proposes a simple and effective
means Of promoting the safety Of
those who travel on the railways Of
the State and those who are employ
ed upon them as well. Most Of the
railroads operating In New England
have Voluntarily adopted regulations
similar to the provisions Of House

BENNINGTON, VT, FEB. Z. 1913.

Montpelier will watch the progress
of that bill to appropriate 100000
for a new state state building with
more than the usual interest, because
the construction of the proposed build
ing will act as a sheet anchor to the
capitol, hold ng it down to Montpelier
rather effectually Times.
No anchor is necessary to hold the
capitol in Montpelier. The periodical
agitation to move the seat of state
government to some other locality
has never secured much real momen-
tum beyond that inspired by the de-
sire of the city of Burlington TO Sc
cure the business that follows the
sessions of the legislature. What
would help more than anything else
to chain the capitol to the valley OF
the upper Onion for all time to come
would be the construction of the pro-
posed railroad through the Williams
town gulf. Once the capital city were
on main line of railroad, the agita'
tors who would seek to make a change
of location wouldn't be able to get a
hearing in a barber shop caucus. The
inconvenience experienced at Mont
pelier Junction has been responsible
more than anything else for the ex
pressed desire to move the capitol.

MoaRAw HusTLEs GIANTS
His Training Methods Quite Different
from These of Other MANAGERS

His Training Methods Quite Different
from These of Other Managers
There is a wide difference in the
training methods which will be used
by the various major league clubs on
their spring trips VIII ch begin this
month. The methods used by Mana
ger John j. McGraw OF the Giants are
condemned by many managers on the
grounds that they are too strenuous
McGraw stated yesterday that he had
done a lot OF experimenting with
training methods and for the past
few seasons he has held to the plan
of getting his men down to hard work
just as soon as possible after they
reach the training camp. McGraws
success in winning two National Lea.
que pennants during the past two
years bears out the wisdom of his
Judgment.
The plan of Manager Jimmy Gala
han of the White Sox Is to give his
players about ten days of easy work
at tossing the ball around and taking
long walks and short prints. Mana
ger McGr3w does not believe in start
ing in easy, but just as soon as he
gets his players together he starts a
ball game McGraw has arranged
more preliminary games than any
other cub in the major leagues, the
Giants having arranged to play TWEEN
lynne games before opening the sea
son in New York.
Relying on his players getting into
shape quickly, McGraw has arranged
game with the Dallas Club of the
Texas League for March / a few days
after the payers arrived in camp. So
the Giants will be playing the game
! before many of the other clubs are as
| sembled Every year there are sore
arms and aching muscles among the
Giant players, but McGraw works has
men so hard that these pains quick
ly disappear in the daily routine OF
training.
Ball players shouldn't mind ach-
ing muscles" sad McGraw yesterday
~ hey are to be expected after a win
ter OF inactivity have always found
it beneficial in the long run to put
| the players to hard work IS soon as
possible. During the past two years
the Giants have played ball from the
first day they arrived at Marlin and
although many of them were sore for
a few days, they got over it quickly
and were in fine shape at the tim,
the season opened. l VIII follow the
same plan at Marlin this season and
expect by the time the players get
back here on April 8, that they viii
be in good shape to begin the long
hard season."
Manager Johnny Evers of the Cubs
has decided to follow McGraw's meth
DDS this spring and will put the Cubs
at work just as soon as they arrive
at their camp in Tampa Many other
managers will follow the policy of civ
ng the players light exercises for the
first ten days in order to avoid the
sore muscle period of training.

ANOTHER OCEAN MYSTERY
The Roumanian Picks Up Deserted
Bark, but Lcses Her In Gale.

The Roumanian Picks Up Deserted
Bark, but Lcses Her in Gale.
Newport News, Feb. 5.-Another
mystery Of the deep, similar to the
unexplained disappearance of the
schooner Marie Celeste several years
ago, is told by the crew of the Brit
ish tank steamer Roum2nian. On
Jan. 10, when ten days out from Port
Arthur, and near the Azores, the Rou
manian cked up the Norwegian
bark Remittent, seaworthy, provision
ed. and fully rugged, but without
soul aboard and no indication of the
crews fate. The Roumanian, after
towing the Remlttent to within 100
miles of Cape Henry, lost her in a
violent gale.
The Marie Celeste was found at
sea with pot boi ing in her galley
and her captains papers on the cab
n table, but nothing ever was heard
of her skipper and crew
The Roumanian sighted the Remit
tent, without a hand to guide her,
with her tiller banging to and fro and
yerring from one pc mt of the com.
pass to another.
The Roumanian lowered a boat,
and after more than an hours jockey
ing, during which the Remittent sail
ed in swoops and dashes, now stop
ping dead in the eye of the wind,
and then bounding away under what
canvas was not furled, the pursuing
boat finally caught her. When on,
boats crew boarded her it was found
that her water breaker was full, and
salt beef and biscuits we're in her
stores. A ma'nsail and two jibs
were snugly furled and her lifeboats
swung in the davits.
The deserted vessel was taken in
tow by the Roumanian but in a few
hours they ran into a gale during
which the tow was lost Twice the
Roumanian launched boats to carry a
new line. and each time they were
smashed against her side by heavy
seas, and their crews narrowly es
capped drowning. Capt Clardge fin
ally gave 1t up and made for port
leaving the Remittent to the mercy
Of the gale. No other ship has re
ported her since.
The Remittent was commanded by
Capt. Torgersf. and she sailed from
Rio Grande do Sui on Oct 25 for Liv
erpool.

If 1t were not for the fact that the
house might today reconsider its &C
ton in killing the Rabbit five per
cent exemption bill, there would be
no telling what would come of the
taxation problem at this session OF
the legislature. And even If there
should be a vote of reconsideration,
he hardly would be a wise man who
would dare venture a prediction OF
what the outcome would be.
At first glance, it would appear that
that in killing the Babbitt measure
the house put an end to all substan-
tial hope that tire would be anything
done in the way of taxation at this
session. True there are those who
ably maintain that the Babbitt meas
ure is not a taxation measure, but
rather an exemption, which is about
right, and it is not knowing that any
other claim is made for it, in and by
itself.
But the Rabbit bill was OF pecu-
liar use at this time, in this way. 1t
was the basis of compromise meas
ure that the conference committee or
the house and senate was supposed to
have drawn up. 1t was fully expect
ed that the report of this committee
would be presented yesterday but the
members evidently were at logger
heads over something and the report
never showed itself in the open.
Now. then, taxation seems to be eX-
actly at the same state that it has
been for years. The present session
has dragged along week after 'week
and might even now have become a
part of history If there had been no
taxation problem to bother the mem.
bers. AS 1t is now, the prolongation
of the session because of taxation may
have been useless, for the various
factions at the capital are almost
hopelessly divided. And they Will
| stay divided unless there is a spirit
of "get-together" infused in the TWO
branches.
Before the legislators throw up
| their hands and give it up as a bad
/ job, they want to remember that cer
tain pledges have been made the citi
zens of the state. These citizens will
| not be too exacting, for they realize
| that this is a matter in the deciding
Of which all factions cannot be pleas
ed What should be aimed at, is some
measure that shall be as just to al
parties as possible. Some start ought
to be made in this reform. but what
ever action is taken should be the re
suit of due consideration. II isn't {
matter that can be lightly passed up
on and there ought to be no vote fol
anything" feeling existing And be /
remembered that while taxation con
ditions in Vermont may be bad at tn
present time they might be worse
and one of the cas- est ways to max
them worse is by permitting an
measure to be rushed through regard
less of what it may mean. The legiS
lature is up against a difficult situl
ton, but that situation has bee
largely created by the legislature i
self and there isn't much sympath
be ng passed around.-St. Adams Me
