WASHINGTON AFFAIRS OF
INTEREST TO VERMONTERS
Senators Dillingham; and Page Have Lost Important Chair
manships Under Democratic Regime-Plan to Improve
Navigation on Lake Champain

the Baltimore convention, and if we
redeem those pledges, we shall con
tinue to enroll the New England states
under the Democratic flag. 1t was the
tariff issue that won the election for
the DEMOCRACY, and if the Democracy
makes go6H, as it win if it keeps on
the path it has started to travel, we
shall win in 1914. and gain in 1916.
Naturally, the industries of New
England that have fiourished under
protection are anxious that their in
dustries shall continue to be protected !;
they are opposed to the reduction OF
the tariff, but the people want to try
the experiment of tariff revision as out
lined by the Democrats. The farmers
feel that they will get compensating
returns for agricultural products going
on the free list, or reducing the duties
thereon, by being able to purchase
farm implements and manufactured
articles at lower cost New England
was against reciprocity with Canada,
because the farmers could see no bene-
fits coming to them for such a policy
but through tariff revision, which viii
give them cheaper manufactured goods
cheaper clothing, and other necessaries
of life, they believe they can afford
to contribute to the general good by
having the duties on their products
lowered. -

Some Broken Eggs

In the matter Of tariff making, you can
not make an omcet without breaking
eggs.
Formal notice has been posted in the
Greystouc mills, at Providence, that the
plant is to he closed. The, explanation
given by the owners Is that the provisions
Of the Democratic tariff bill will make
it absolutely impossible for us to success
fully compete with imported goods
The stockholders in this concern do not
expect to lose anything. The company
has a similar factory at Bradford, Eng
land, where it can manufacture the same
goods and land them in New York con
5iderably cheaper than these can be made
at Providence and delivered at New
York The present protection has act
ed as a sufficient offset against the higher
American wages to warrant the operation
Of the American plant; with this protec-
ton removed it must be closed.
The owners of tins establishment, being
already well equipped to do their manu-
facturing on the other side Of the At
Iantlc, are not worrying over broken eggs

THURSDAY, APRIL "a, 1913.

General approval will be given to
the plan of the public service COM
mission of Vermont, which will hold
series of informal meetings in the
several counties of the state for the
purpose Of bringing the commission
and the people into close touch with
each other. Heretofore, people have
been slow to bring their troubles be
fore the commission for the reason
that there was so much formality re-
quired, but under the new plan it will
be comparatively easy for the public
to secure consideration in matters that
have to do with the duties of public
service corporations. The proposed
hearings will not have the force and
effect of those called on formal petit
tions but will be for the purpose of
giving the commissioners better I'M
derstandiug of the wishes of all con
cerned. And if they bring the commits
sion and the public on better terms
with each other they will have been
well worth while.

the Democrats must either make such
