MAKING GRADE CROSSINGS LESS
DANGEROUS.
(From the Barre Times

From the Barre Tmes)
After investigating grade crossings ac-
cidents in his state, the Missouri State
highway inspector passes out the advice
that all approaches to grade crossings
should be clear OF brush and the ground
should be level for "A considerable dis
tance leading to the approach. These
are very good precautionary measures for
any State where the dangerous grade
crossings still exist 1t is absolutely in
defensible to allow conditions to remain.
In which approaches to grade crossings
are hidden by growth Of brush and trees
because the brush and trees could easily
be removed and the hazard OF the cross
ing decreased immeasurably. Vermont al
ready has law requiring the cutting of
brush and small growth beside the road ;
and II there are any instances in which
the law IL not being complied with action
should be taken at once. With the other
position taken by the Missouri highway
inspector II would not be so easy to
comply In Vermont. because Of the con-
tour Of the land with its mountains and
its valleys. 1t Is practically impossible to
build level stretches of roadway along
approaches to grade crossings because of
the fact that many Of the only feasible
positions for roads lead down hill and up
hill. In Missouri 1t would be comparative
ly easy to carry out the recommendation
failure to safeguard the public in so far
as 1t is possible by cutting the growth
that hnders a clear view of grade cross
ings for some distance away.

The Burlington merchants applied in
St. Adams the suggestion made with this
city in mind by the Rev. G. J. Staples at
the luncheon just before the party left
town Thursday, and infused several new
ideas into the minds of the St. Adams
men-also receiving some in return.

to stay Judgment was oVerruIed.
McManigal Truthful
Before sentencing the defendants.
Judge Anderson read in part a writ
ten statement:
Two Of the defendants, Ortie Nc
Manigal and Edward Clark, pleaded
guilty and testified to knowledge OF
the conspiracy and Of participating
In its execution. The principal Of these
Is McManigal, whose story on the wit
ness stand was given in such a man
uer as to carry conviction of truth.
This campaign Of dynamiting was
entered into and carried on through
out the country, from the Atlantic to
the Pacific and it necessarily involved
the illegal transportation Of dynamite
and nitroglycerin.
Il won't believe that organized labor
approves of such practices. Any or
ganization approving or adopting the
methods of these defendants Is an
outlaw and will meet the fate that
outlaws have met since civilized
society began.
Guilty Of Murder
THE evidence shows that some Of
the defendants are guilty Of murder,
but they are not charged with that
crime This court cannot punish them
for murder, nor should it be influenced
by any such consideration in facing
the music of punishment for the
crimes charged"
