FRANK e. HOWE, Editor and Pub
BENNINGTON VT, JAN. %, 1912.

Present conditions in Mexico, in
which there have been no apparent
changes, except for the worst, in
many months, constitute sufficient evi
dence that blending of Spanish and
Indian blood does not produce race
fitted for self-government. Mexico
has long been a republic, but little
real progress in that country has
been made since the people broke
away from Spain, except during the
administrations of President Diaz,
and Diaz was an emperor in every
thing but name. There were abuses,
many of. them, while he was at the
head of the government, but with all
of his short comiigs he demonstrated
that his system of rule was far prefer
able TO the condition of anarchy that
has existed in the country beyond the
Rio Grande ever since he was sent in
to exile.

FEW CHILDREN IN BACK BAY
Three-fourths Of the Residents IN
Boston District Lack Families.


Boston. Jan. l9.-More than three
fourths of Back Bay families are
childless. while the children of the
remainder are mostly beyond the
age of IL. This condition became
known through the action of the Rev.
Austin Kennedy de Blois. pastor of
the First Baptist Church. who detail
ed four investigators to collect sta.
tistics from families in the Back Bav
They went through the aristocratIc
residential rectangle formed BY AT.
lington street. Massachusetts, avenue.
Boylston street and the Charles
River, territory five blocks wide
and eight blocks long. or forty blocks
in all
The investigators reported that OF
the a72 families questioned 5ss had
no children, and that there we're s72
children in the remaining 173 homes.
or a proportion Of over two children
to each family.
Commenting on this result. DIR. de
BlOis said:
1T appears that less than one
quarter Of these Black BAY families
have children in their homes. IA
should be said also that in many Of
these cases the children are almoss
young men and young women, being
OF OF beyond the age Of ~. A closer
analysis and a limitation Of the
term children TO those below the
age Of IL would reduce the number
BY about one-third.

upon the lecture hall The Young man
sat on waiting for some one to say

finished. He had said all he had to
say. There were no questions from
faculty or students. few of the girls
began to fidget, but no one spoke.
The young man became unpleasantly
aware that he was expected to do
something and To do il at once. but he
did not know what to do. He reflected
miserably that he did not know the
etiquette of a girls school anyhow.

CALL FOR ELECTORAL VOTES
Laegard States Warned by Senate
President to Report Returns.

Laqqard States Warned by Senate
President to Report Returns.
Washington, Jan. 19-In order to
comply with the law 1t will be neces-
sary for all the States TO gtethelr
electoral returns to Washington by
the beginning of next week. The re-
quirement is that all the returns
shall be in the hands of the Presi-
dent of the Senate by Monday, Jan.
81, and a warning was sent out today
from the Office of the President of
the Senate that If the reports were
not received by that date the States
falling would be in danger of losing
their votes.
Up to the close of business last
night only fifteen States had reported
by messenger and thirty-fve by mail.
Those reporting by messenger were
Connecticut, Delaware, Illinois, In
diana, Iowa, Kansas, Maryland, Ne
braska, New Jersey, North Carolina,
Pennsylvania, Rhode Island. South
Dakota, Vermont and West Vir-
ginia. All others lack only a week
of being delinquent.
Not only does the law provide that
States failing to get In their votes on
time may be deprived of their votes,
but 1t operates so as to cause mes
sengers to lose mileage pay allowed
them for bringing the vote to Wash
ington. This is rs cents per mile one
way, and is considerable item In
cases of men coming from far distant
States. The imposition OF penalties
is optional with the presiding officer
of the Senate and has never been ex-
ercised. but in previous years the re-
turns have come In more promptly.

What Is Beer To-
Be Determined

Washington, D. c., Feb. a.
"What is beer?'' is the question
put directly to the supreme court
of the District of Columbia by the
government, in fixing a libel
against the product of a local
brewer. 1t was declared today that
a government victory in the case
would affect brewers the country
over and would bring about the
confscation of products with a
value running into the millions.
The suit, which was instituted
at the request of the pure food
and drug board of the department
of agriculture, alleged that the
product was misbranded in that it
was labelled 'malt and hop brew"
with representations of medals of
award for its .''purity and excel
lence."
The government charges that
the beverage is not an exclusive
malt and hop brew, but is ''pre-
duct in which sugar or a cereal has
been substituted for the malt"

The supreme court today dismiss
cd the appeal of Jack johnson the
negro pugilist, indicated in Chica-
go on charges of violating the
federal white slave act, from the
decision of the federal court OF
northern Illinois.
Johnson's appeal was from the
Illinois federal courts refusal to
sustain a writ of habeas corpus,
by which the lawyers sought to
test the couktituGonality of the
white slave act, in violation of
which Johnson was charged with
Transporting in interstate com

Justice Lamar announced the

raise the constitutlonalitY of law
on habeas corpus proceedings,
unless other means of testing it's
validity had been exhausted. In
the meanwhile the court pointed
out, johnson had been released on
bail.
The court did not pass on the
constitutionality of the law in any
particular.
AS result of the supreme
courts action in dismissing Jack
Johnson's appeal, District Attor-
ney Wilkerson said today that the
cases against the negro would be
