who shall not find political prefer
ence among his fellows. Many man
in Vermont before now has been able
to cast his eyes to the hills from
which cometh his power, while on the
other side of the range other men
may look at the same hill and in
them find the reason why they were
not selected to do that work for the
state which they were pre-eminently
fitted to perform.
How long will Vermonters bow to
geography? How long will hill and
valley hold sway over the minds of
men? For that is just what they
are doing today, and were it not for
political selfishness not man in
Vermont would deny the truth of it..
Why don't Vermonters take the
mountains and acres out of their
eyes and look at things as they ought
to be looked at?-St. Adams Messen-
ger.

COL. oLIN SCOTT

In the death of Colonel DIN Scott,
Bennington loses its Oldest business
man and a man who has been a bene-
factor to the town according to his
means.
For almost 60 years Mr. Scott has
been in business here and he was the
last of the older generation of manu-
facturers who have made the indus
trial history of the town during the
past half century. Strong, active,
self reliant and not afraid of hard
work, Col. Scott built up a business
and fortune that during his later
years has. enabled him to carry out
some of the plans that he dreamed OF
in his youth.
The younger generation of Ben
ningtonians remember him, chiefly, as
donor toward public buildings and
other public spirited objects, but dur
ing his more active life a quarter OF
century back he was a business
force that had to be reckoned with.
Few men took so graf an interest
in historical matters as he and he
had fund of historical Renaissance
relative to the early history of Ben
nington that ought to have been
compiled for future generations.
Col. Scott has lived to ripe old
age and has left a memory that will
be cherished because of his gener
osity to his town.

The Western Menace

A few days ago a man from the
West happened to be talking to some
New England merchants, and they
were astonished. as New Englanders
are apt to be, at hearing that some
body else was doing better business
than they. They were merchants
representing the sentiment of West
ern New England and in fact OF all
New England and indicated the weak
ness in our conception of future de-
velopment of this territory.
When one considers that two hun
dred cities in the South and West
have commission form of government
Galveston, Texas, being one of the
best examples, we can see that New
England must very soon increase its
efficiency in municipal affairs.
In Keouk and in Seattle, the deyel-
opment of water power for lighting
and manufacturing purposes is enor-
nous, and these cities. as well as
many others, can offer to our New
England industries sites and power
at far cheaper rates than they are OBJ
tanning in this territory.
One hundred of the southern and
western cities are developing accord
ing to city plans, and they are work
ing in everything along definite lines.
They are not hampered by tradition
and by fear of innovations.
Now these western cities are right
after the New England industries,
hammer and tongs. and it is high
time that Western New England
woke up and met the situation. OF
course, there are great many of our
industries that will stay here. but
while the palm of the hand may hold
good many of the old lines, others
are slipping through the fingers. In
these southern and western cities
they offer skilled labor better social
life and better living conditions, and
| If the skilled labor keeps going
South and West, New England will
| soon obviously feel the effect.
So, when certain far-sighted citi
zens begin to talk about city plans
better housing conditions, etc, lei
not the community say that these
are idle, Utopian theories which
would be all right some day." but
let them rather say yes, these are
steps in the right direction" They
are movements which are demanded
in order to maintain our prosperity
and, therefore, they need our earnest
attention. Wen grant that city
planning and proper housing condi
tons are ideal, but they are also in
dustrial in the sense that they helI
not only to maintain our industries
but to retain them.
Western New England has many
fine qualities for industrial develop
ment. II has water power; ii has
beautiful cities. and. most of all
good people, but these good people
must not think that they are so good
and SO perfect that need not improve
the conditions which will make for
the greater prosperity through in.

Big Drop In Farm Products

With all this talk of 1.-The high
cost of living" there are a few facts
of which We should not loose sight.
Government reports, covering the
entire country. prove that farmers
were receiving on the first day of
April 1913, 25. per cent less for what
they sold that one year ago. Such a
drop in prices would put any manu-.
featuring company out of business,
but the farmer has to stand 1t.
More. the farmer is facing still
lower prices with practically every
thing that he has to sell put on the
free list. Talk about reciprocity
the new democratic tariff gives
Canada all or about all she was to
get under reciprocity and-we get
nothing in return. II is the farmer
who is hit hardest by the new tariff.
The government reports show
that the farmers are receiving the
lowest prices now in five years.
Half the talk about the high cost
of living is founded upon false
premise. Commodities do not cost
