The Telephone Truce.

At the suggestion of the department
of justice, the American Telephone &
Telegraph company last night consented
to give up its interest in the Western
Union Telegraph company, effecting a
reorganization in conformity with the
administration theory OF the anti
trust law II is expected that this move
viii save the company from further liti-
CATION.
1t would be highly regrettable if this
decision should cut the connection that
has just been established between these
two great services, as result Of which
every householder with a telephone of
his own is linked up at all hours of the
day and on every day in the year with
nation wide telegraph system. This
has been great Improvement over the
old era, when one had to consult the
office hours of the telegraph company,
besides taking his money along, when
ever he wanted to send a message.
1t is possible that an arrangement
may be effected by which the present
Welding of one service into the other
may be continued, and oil the con.
venieaces brought about by the new
regime may be made permanent. Let us
hope so! Ii the antitrust law involves
turning back of the clock OF progress,
it ought to be amended. There should
be no CROSSED wires" in our system of
electric communication.-Bo Herald.

good repute suffers somewhat in conse-
quence.

Should the Delaware & Hudson rail-
road acquire control of the Boston &
Maine railroad, as intimated as a pos
sibility, it might mean certain de-
velopment of railroading which long has
been desired in several parts of Vermont.
That would be eross-state railroad
from Barre and Montpelier to Rutland,
the line of the Delaware & Hudson al
ready touching the latter point. Such
line of railroad across the central part
of Vermont would offer a splendid dis
tributing agency for coal, product
which the Delaware & Hudson handles
to a large extent, as it taps a big coal
region Anyway, there seems to be more
hope of consummation of long-cher-
ished aim Of Vermont people through
this possible means than through any
railroad ownership now in control.

CURRENT COMMENT
Where Is the End?

With only a little less than $4,000
typewriter pages OF testimony taken
already and the end far from being in
sight, the public may well wonder what
this telephone company investigation
is to get from Vermont. Some of the
phases Of the telephone situation, into
which the public service commission has
gone in minute detail, appear to an
outsider to be unnecessary to a deter
mination whether the rates charged the
public should be lowered or maintained
at the present stand. Barre Times.
II looks as if the counsel for the state
and their assistants did not know just
what they We're going after but were de-
termined to keep going in the hope that
by chance they might find something
that would tend to ease the strain that
seems inevitable.-St. Adams Messen-
ger.

The tragedies and tragedies

Junction, one of which took place Sun

included in Vermont's quota of homi-
cides because Vermont conditions are
not responsible for the crimes and, more
over, because the participants are men
who are merely temporary residents of
the state, they having been brought in
to do the manual labor on the big CON

THEIR LOYALTY APPRECIATED.

The Boston society of the Daughters
of Vermont show their loyalty and their
progressiveness by making it possible
for two prospective Vermont teachers
to take courses of training in YER
mont normal school, having provided
scholarships for that purpose. This is a
practical good which is bound to have
its results in the raising of the standard
of education in the old state, and the
present residents of Vermont wish the
Boston society of the Daughters of Yer
mont to know that the home people APP
preciate the efforts to cooperate IN the
splendid work which the state is doing
to make school training more effective
in all parts of the state. Without doubt,
the state will welcome these allies to a
work which is very large and quite ex-
pensive. And, finally, it is pleasing to
note the spirit of loyalty which lies
back of this proposal just adopted by
the Boston society. Such spirit augurs
well for the continued advancement of
the state in other departments as well
as in educational matters.
