Representative Jose of Johnson

The following communication is from
the Burlington Daily Free Press of last
Monday and is published because many
people hereabouts Will want to read it,
Editor Burlington Free Press:-
Among all the legislators who assem-
bled in Montpelier last fall and remained
there during the winter and into the
spring, none impressed the writer as
costing the State so much and doing so
little good and % much harm as E., p.
Jose of johnson.
This young man was a comparative
stranger in Vermont who landed in The
Legislature as the result of an accident
of local politics. He started talking i'm
mediately TO tell us country lumpkins of
the State of Edmunds and Morrill, how a
State should not be run. Mote the mega
tive. Mr.. Jose never said or thought any
thing positive or constructive in his
young life.)
On the second or third day of the SEES
sion this young man arose and publicly
insulted the speaker of the House and
State officer. 1t turned out later that the
cause ot this outrage was not any fault
of theirs but his own utter ignorance OF
| Legislative procedure. colleage of his
| own party FASTENED to apologize for him,
and after sulking awhile he too apollo
gized.
Just as one man is born with crook in
| his back so another is born with crimp
In his mind Mr.. Jose is of the latter
variety. His mind is so hinged or I'M
hinged that everything seems wrong to
him. In several months experience with
MIN, never heard him speak a pleasant
or encouraging word, never saw him eX-
tend a helping hand to measure or
man.
He claims to belong to the party of Gift
ford Pinchot, and yet he fought tooth and
nail against important forestry legisla-
ton. He assumes to be Oh the side of
enlightenment and yet he contended vi
ciOusly against giving aid to the institu-
lions of higher education. He claims to
belong to the party working toward So
cialization as against individuallsm, and
yet he gave formal Lotice that he would
speak against any measure involving emf
nent domain-the principle which forces
the individual sorehead to sell out at
more than what he owns is worth, instead
of allowing him to block some undertake
ing of public benefit. He claimed to
stand for economy, and yet by his inces-
SAINT talking, and constant requests that
this or that unimpOTtant measure be put
off, he did more to prolong and increase
the expense of an expensive session than
any other man.
AS long as Mr.. Jose refrained from get
ting into the Legislature aud before he
contracted the habit OF writing letters to
the paper, his mental bias was his own
misfortune and nobody's else business.
Now the public have right to have him
accounted for, and his antics explained.
We ought to know just what kind of
man is telling us what a bell on earth
Vermont has been and still is.
In a characteristic harangue Mr.. Jose
said that Vermont had done much for
him. wbereupon our good old John Sem
ter rose M and told him that it could do
more still. Yours truly,
+. !. OsOFER.

Canada buys more goods from the
United States than from all other coun-
tries combined. Last year the Dominion
purchased sixty five per cent. of its goods
from us and the United States took from
Canada thirty eight per cent. of that
country's exports. Despite tariff pre-
ferences, Great Britain is steadily losing
business in the Canadian market and the
United Statesis gaining. Canada is loyal
to her mother country, but business is

preferential tariffs.

That was an unusual event which took
place last Saturday at the capital at

Gated to the memory of Col. Owen, the
man who had charge of the Confederate
prisoners, some 1000 of them. confined
in the prison in that city after the cap
ture of Fort Donelson by the Union
troops. The unusual thing about this
event was the fact that the memorial TO
this Union colonel was raised and paid
for by Confe1erat veterans-men who
although they were enemies, were treated
humanely by the colonel while in prison,
and it was in honor of this that the Con-
federates performed the deed. Among the
speakers on the occasion was Gen. Ben

declined to come after protest had

Senator Townsend OF Michigan threw
bomb into the Democratic camp, 80 to
speak, last week when he declared that
the Senators who are inclined to vote
against some of the provisions OF the
Underwood Tariff bill had been 'cojoled'
or driven to its support by fears OF loss
of patronage and the frown of the ad-
ministration He defined lobbyist as a
man who attempts to influence legisla-
ton against the honest and conscientious
notions of duty OF the legislators. Hence,
he added the President himself came
within the definition of lobbyist in at
tempting to force the passage of the
tariff bill AS a result of this startling
testimony a motion was made to recall
to the stand the Senators OF Democratic
faith who had lost heart in the cause OF
their constituents beca Use OF fears o.
Presidential disfavors. No startling de-
velopments have as yet come to light
from this source, but it is very evident
that the assertion has set some tc

Uncle Ike" Stephenson of Wisconsin,
in the course of his answers TO a series OF
questions propounded by the Senate Com
mittee which is chasing the lobby in
Washington, was somewhat forgetful
while on the stand and it was necessary
to prompt him to learn the complete list
of his holdings. The Senator forgot that
he owned few little things like rail-
road or an iron mine and he skipped a
million here and there. Senator Stephen
son is probably the last of his type OF
craftsmanship that will ever occupy a
seat in the upper house. His career, how
ever, reads like a romance. Starting
out for himself as cooks helper at the
age of eleven in lumber camp, he became

ing session of the Travellers Pro-

Speaking of safety in hotels. she
said: Hotel fires are occurring with
alarming frequency. During h first
day of 1915 FIVE hotels In various sec
tons of the country burned, resulting
in the loss of two lives and the sacri-
fee of over 500. 900 in property. Dur
ing January there were twenty-five
fires, and in three OF them seven per-
sons lost their lives and the prop
erty loss was nearly 100000. A
hotel fire every thirty-three hours was
the rate of burning in 1912, and the
first six weeks Of 1913 have averaged
one every thirty hours. Hardly a day
passes without news of a hotel fire
somewhere in the country. Despite
the encouraging progress Of the fire
prevention campaign. hotel fires were
more frequent in 1919 than in any OF
the FIVE years preceding and 1918
