Calling a Bluff.

In the attempt to have the present
state legislature pass the inn keepers
license bill. now in the hands of the
joint temperance committee. the advo-
Gates of that measure are putting up a
monumental bluff, the like of which
has not been witnessed in Vermont
since the time when a class of men
with similar ideas and the same mer-
cenary object successfully fimfammed
the state with the local option idea.
The Hotel Association of Vermont
of which Max L. Powell of Burlington
is the president. in circular letter
which has been distributed throughout
the state, confesses to being response
BILE for the conception and introduction
of the measure. and members of the
association. headed by Mr.. Powell, ap-
peared before the joint committee on
temperance in Montpelier last week
and presented what they presumably
considered to be arguments in favor of
the proposed law.
The burden of the appeal for an OPP
portunity to over ride the majority
sentiment of no-license communities
anil to establish bars in towns where
the people have declared that saloons
are not wanted, is that of booming"
Vermont and attracting thirsty tour
lists, the claim being solemnly adj
vanced that hotels, catering to the
tourist business, cannot provide mod
ern facilities and comforts and be
prof tably operated without selling
liquor.
The Standard has heretofore pointed
out the absolute falsity of this claim
not by theoretical discussion, but by
citing the actual record of numerous
modernly equipped and conducted
hotels in different sections of Yer
mont, whose profitable and notably
successful operation and large and
lie to this claim in behalf Of hotel
bars.
The right kind of hotel man does
not need land does not WANT bar in
order to make a financial success of a
summer or all the year round hotel,
! for he will provide those clearly COM
forts and reasonable Injuries of bed
! board that make the most effective APP
peal to the travelling man
! An illustration of this is found in
| the case Of jerome F. Hale. proprietor
of Hale's Tavern at Wells River, who
spoke before the committee last week,
, but whose remarks in advocacy of the
| inn keepers bill constituted one of the
! S -rOngest arguments against it.
When he went to Wells River eight
cen years ago he was told by two
hotel keepers across the New Hamp-
shire line, to use his own expressive
language, that he stood as much
chance as a SNOWFALL in hell Of max
ing a success Of the hotel business in
Wells River without bar. He neg
lected to refer to the subsequent car
! eer. under license condi tions. Of these
) New Hampshire prophets. but he did
relate with pard0nable pride how he
had made a success of HaIe's Tavern
! and made that hostelry we'll and faV-
orably known throughout the Connec-
ticut valley.
This campaign that is being carried
on by Max Powell and his associates,
! the success Of which would result in
pecuniary profit to the liquor interests
alone. and work damage to the finan-
cial. social and moral welfare of al
other classes, is founded On bluff anC
buncombe and it is time for the bluff
! to be caIled.-Enosburg Standard.

means of identifying the man was
through mail in his pocket addressed
to Charles Margetti From what can
be learned. the deceased started at
about 6 O'Clock for Belden with two
countrymen and nothing more was
seen of any of them until the man was

when Deputy Nash passed into the
narrow passageway, Cmell suddenly
broke away, rushed into the sheriff S
office. seized revolver lying upon the
desk. placed the weapon at his head,

no cartridges in the chambers, how
ever, and with the assistance of anoth-
er deputy, Cmell was soon overpow-

house of correction at Rutland to SEN
tence of five years.

The Monitor has received communi.
cations from Woman Suffrage support
ers in Vermont as to where we stood
on the question. Well. we are not en-
tir-ly convinced that equal suffrage
with men, accompanied by its equal

believe women should have the right
to vote on matters Of taxation and
allied subjects where the principle OF
taxation without representation is
applicable.

Bank Can Recover Insurance

In the case of the Citizens Bank &
Trust Company VS.. the Fitchburg
Mutual Fire Insurance Company, the
jury in Caledonia county brought in a
verdict finding that the bank building
before the fire in 1909 was worth
S35, 900 and the amount Of the loss
$29. 900. The case value Of the person
al property was So, SOP and the loss on
it So, 814. This finding will entitle the
bank to recover the full amount Of in

suarnce companies. 1t is expected the
case will go to the supreme court
again before it is finally settled.

The progressive leaders IN the house

their opinions and IositiOns, as evi-
dence comes to them of a convincing

The St. Johnsbury Caledonian hears
that Senator Dillingham; S closest
friends understand he is not candi-

the completion of his present term,
which is perhaps the first public init
nation to that effect. If the intima-
ton should prove to be we'll founded,
it would throw the state of Vermont
into no slight political turmoil, be-
cause there are several persons known
to be seeking the position and the field
would be open to all corners. Still,

Maple Sugar in London.

Vermont maple sugar is known all
over this continent, but much of this
article is spurious, and not even
good imitation. The real article, how
ever, has found its way to England
and Walter E. Dodd of East Corintn is
the party in this section who has made
a market for the same across the wat
err. Mr.. Dodd is proprietor of the
Twinfiower Farm at East Corinth and
his shipment of maple sugar to Eng
t land netted him 40 cents per pound.
This opens a new field for Vernon
sugar makers and Mr.. Dodd has paved
the way for profitable returns to those
who wish to get into foreign field
with their maple sugar.

showed his interest also by assisting
