With the other position taken by the
Missouri highway inspector, it would not
be so easy to comply in Vermont, be-
cause of the contour of the land with its
mountains and its valleys. 1t is prae-
tically 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
it would be comparatively easy to carry
out the recommendation. However, there
is no excuse whatever for failure to
safeguard the public in so far as it is
possible by cutting the growth that hin
ders a clear view of grade crossings for
some distance away.

Making a Joke of Law.

Is Thaw hero in New Hampshire as
he was in Canada because he is no.
torious, or because he is rich, or because
there is genuine popular sympathy for
him, or is his popularity due 10 the fact
that he and his money are making a
joke of the law and justice?
If the extraordinary demonstrations
that attend this fugitive have any rela-
tion to the issue that is supposed TO lie
between him and the authorities, il
would seem that the courts would recog-
nize the fact The administration OF
Justice is on trial in this matter even
more conspicuously than Thaw.
In Canada an arbitrary order by the
central government ended what was rap
idly becoming a scandal. There can be
no such decree in this jurisdiction, but
Judges, federal and state, who by lax
and trifing methods, encourage the pres
ent farce are assuming a heavy respOn-
sibility.-New York Herald.

LOWEST FIRE LOSS.
Area Burned Over Much Less Than in
Preceding Year.

With the middle of September the fire
season on the national forests has come
practically to an end with less damage
than ever recorded There is always
some danger from carelessness OF camp
ers or of settlers burning brush and
clearing land but the real danger season
extends only from the middle OF June
until the middle of September.
Forest officers throughout the west
are congratulating themselves on sea-
son so markedly free from heavy losses.
They feel that the immunity from loss
has been due to two principal causes,
partly to a favorable season, but largely
to a much better organization for fire
prevention than has been attained here
tofore. The effectiveness of the or
ganization is shown particularly by the
fact that while there were in all approx
imately 1920 fires, as against 2,47O last
wear, vet the area burned so far this
wear is only about 10000 acres as
against $4,000 acres in 1912, and 100000
in 1911.
A single administrative district
which covers the intermountain region
of southern Idaho, western Wyoming,
Utah. Nevada, and western Arizona,
gives an example OF the most favorab le
situation Only 43 fires were encounter
ed. 20 of which originated in Idaho. The
total area burned over amounted to only
956 acres, which is considerably less
than four one hundred thousandths of
the total area patrolled by forest Off
GERS in these states.
California, Arizona, and New Mexico
have suffered most during the past sea-
son.
The various causes of fires have not
changed greatly in their relative pro-
portions. Railroads and lightning head
the list, with campers next. There has
been, however marked decrease in the
number of fires caused by burning brush,
which, according to the forest officers,
indicates a closer cooperation with the
settlers in and near the forests and
with timberland owners in fire proven
ton anc control. 1t is still true, never
theless, that a large proportion of all
fires started are due to human agencies
and may generally be charged against
carelessness. Fires caused by lightning
are, of course, not preventable, but the
system of lookouts by which they may
be detected Immediately after being set
is greatly lessening the loss from this
cause.

CURRENT COMMENT
British Admit Superiority.

The British are good sportsmen, good
losers. They freely admit that Vardon
and Ray were clearly out-classed by
young Ouimet in the open golf cham
pionship last week. They have no ex-
cuses to offer. The British press is
unanimous in giving full credit to
0uimet for his epoch marking victory
The London Standard hits the nail on
the head when it says, "The two English
professionals had the misfortune to meet
in Ouiinet golfer who plays better
than either of them"
In contrast to this it is rather sur
prising to see some of our own news
papers making apologies for the two
Britons. One newspaper in this city es-
pecially went out of its way to dispar-
age the victory of the new champion,
expressing the opinion that it was not
so much the good playing OF Ouimet as
it was the off-form playing of Vardon
and Ray that kept the title on this
side OF the water. 1t must nauseate
any one who pretends to know the least
thing about the game OF golf to read
such stuff as this.
Young 0uimet from start to finish
PLAYED the most consistent golf of any
of the scores of entrants. His totals
for the three days play before his final
match with Vardon and Ray, l52, l5l,
and 1853 strokes, respectively, showed
his deadly machine-like accuracy and
that his victory was no accident. And
when he was face TO face with the
Britons what advantage his familiarity
with the course gave him was more than
balanced by the long experience of the
two seasoned veterans. There was no
fuke about it. Ouimet, perhaps to-day
the greatest living golfer, showed con-
clusively that he is the peer OF the
once peerless Vardon and Ray, and that
he could beat them again if called upon
to do so-New York Globe.

DEATH OF WILLARD AUSTIN.
Occurred While on Visit to Sister-I
Poor Health for Some Time

In the death of Willard M. Austin,
Calais lost one of its oldest citizens.
He was the son of Friend Austin, and
was born in Marshfeld, July 2, 1880,
and in that town most of his life was
spent farming. On Jan. Ia, 1862, he
was married to Jane Cole, daughter OF
Welcome and Lucy Bliss Cole OF Marsh
field. They had no children, but adopt
ed two, Arthur Lamberton of Marsh
field, and Jennie Clifford now Mrs. How.
ard r. Leonard of Calais. His wife died
in 1894. For the past two years he
made his home with Mrs. Lewis Burn
ham and there received the care which
he in his feeble condition, needed. Re
Gently he went to the home of his sis
ter, Mrs. Mehitabe Wheelock of Kent's
Corner. for visit, and here his death
occurred Saturday, Sept 10. The ft-
neral services were held at the home
OF his sister, Mrs. Wheelock, Mrs. Dean
Holt officiating. Burial was in the Bliss
cemetery, East Calais. He was vet
eran of the Civil war, serving nine
months in Company G, 18th Vermont,
STANDARDS brigade. He is survived by
the adopted children, one brother, Hec
tor Austin of Marshfeld, and two sis
tiers, Mrs. Mehitable Wheelock of Calais,
and Mrs. Ruth Woodcocl of Plainfeld.

Fishing for Pearls.

DO You know that perhaps within a
stones throw of your suburban home,
pearls may be foundf Sara Savage
MULLER has an extensive article in
Suburban Life-The Countryside Mag
azine for October on 'Fresh-water Pearl
Fishing" She says that almost every
stream and pond throughout the United
States contain one or more varieties OF
mussels in which pearls are found, and
tells of carpenter of Paterson, n. j.,
who found magnificent pink pearl
weighing ninety-three grains in the
waters OF Notch Brook. 1t was bought
by Messrs Tiffany & Co., for 81 800 and
later was sold to the Empress Eugene.
Since then it has been known as the
famous Queen pearl.

MAKING GRADE CROSSINGS LESS
DANGEROUS.

After investigating grade crossing 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 considerable dis
tance leading to the approach. These
are very good precautionary measures
for any state where the dangerous grade
crossing still exists. 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 UNNECESSARILY. Vermont
already has law requiring the cut
ting of brush and small growth beside
the road; and if there are any instances
in which the law is not being complied
with, action should be taken at once.
