THE MAIL ORDER TRUST.

So silently and insidiously that the great public is as yet almost unaware of it's presence, new trust is extending it's tentacles out over the country. It is the mail order trust. Already it's slrangling grip is tightening about the million small town and country merchants, who are the backbone of national prosperity
 The mail order trust has capi- talized women and child labor. It has capitalized prison labor
 It has capitalized misfortune. It has capitalized vice. It has turn

ALASKA AND IMAGINATION.


 to my imagination" said Frank lin K. Lane, Secretary of the ln- terior, "and believe il is drsi in- ed to be the future home of many million Americans and of several new StatrS.' Sounds large. does n't il? But why should not Alas ka be- the land of imagination and imagination realized at that :? Why should it not be the real melting pot of this American con- tient, where may be worked out and realized the ideals of equal opportunity
 Under halfway decent uppor- tunitics, Alaska would be "a poor mans land.' one where is not found "Ihe millionaire home on the hill and a thousand novels in the vaIlry.' One where the poor man is not a pauper nor has the the fear of pauperism in his heart. Amid the welter of other lands where efficiency and rXpIoi- taiion and privilege wear the hear and waste the body" felt here be Inc experiment made for another type of civilization. A civilization that does not measure progress by the accumulation of wealth but by the distribution of happiness.
 Other lands respond tn the stern urge of tradition of things that ''just growed," of historic connections. Here may be land where "Art combines with Na- turc.' Where no vested inter- esl> stand in the way of wise en- deavnr. Where no widows and orphans open their dumb mouths to plead against their fellows.
 Much buncombc. more OF less pure. has been written about Alaska. The, territory has been picture as Utopia. but il does not measure up to that ideal un- der existing conditions. How ever, it has all the materials for the making of an ideal state. or, as Secretary Lane says. a num- ber of states. It has in the raw all the resources, natural adNan- tagrS and opportunities that were offered to the pioneers in other states, and which. for reasons not necessary here to explain in de- tail. have been exchanged for mesSrS of poltage which would not pass the test of the "Nistl ln-: pure food laws.
 The cold. practical fart' of tine situation today are that Ala S'>a may be preserved and developed as the truly r"prcSentati\" sec liun of America if the tcrrll"rv is not allowed to pass iEl" nr> polling hands. Alaska l'riav stands as Inc land where H"IHl> and tools may come together if only thrift and industry impr the hands, a land where indiNidllaiiSIn may grow from human rhrlS. a land of euut.. rppurluni'.-
 There is ,,ul a thing visionary about the proposition. Sr rr'arN Lane is a stu ty, practical E'Hll. He is stubborn. too. iu t way. and he has a d"ep-rooted ronNic fion that Alaska should be devGl- oped by he peoples government for the benefit of the people and not by special interests for their selfish enrichment. Congress, supposed ln be the representa- tive of the peoples will, can not do better service to the nation than to follow Secretary Lanes recommendations touching Alas

On a Parity with the State Fair.
Barre Times

Barre Times
Judging from the spendid writeups
which The Brattleboro Reformer has
given the Valley fair in its town dur
ing the week, that fair must be well
on a parity with the state fair at
White River Junction. The evidence
seems to confirm the belief that the
Valley fair is one Of the big institu-
tions Of the state and has nothing to
fear from competition with the state
fair. Perhaps the latter fair has done
good turn indirectly by squirting the
managers of the exhibition nj Brattle-
boro into increased efforts to put on a
fine fair, Indeed. by putting on a fine
exhibition and conducting it satisfac-
| torily, the state fair has done a great
1 deal toward helping all the other asso-
Citations III Vermont by raising the
standard which the public demands
/ One feature which must have appealed
to the public S approval was the effort
TO keep the grounds free from crooks
| through the hiring Of detectives from
| Montreal and Boston, who We're con
stantlv in service. In this respect the
Brattleboro fair contrasted very favor
ably with some other agricultural eX
hibitions throughout Vermont.

WORD FROM CROKER.

They used to say that Richard Croke
had an amazing gift for saving the
wrong thing at the right time. From
far off Glen Cairn, his Irish estate, Mr..
Crocker rouses himself to make VIC
lent personal attack upon the memory
of exMayor Gaynor. He accuses him
directly or indirectly of domestic scan
dals and public graft He seems to
have been spurred on to this by New
York paper 5 mention OF Gaynor S diff
ference with mis- nephew, Chief Croker
of the New York fire department. Tam
many 5 ex-chief says that Vice and
crime were never so great in any admin
stratiOn as under the late mayor s term
of office, and again che loved 10.
toriety in public life and there was
more sincerity in Charles f. Murphy s
little finger than in his whole political
career. These vigorous remarks from
the expatriated former Tammany hos,
cannot blu. add to the burden Tamman1
has to bear this year. Much wiser ha,
Charles F. Murphy been attending Il
his knitting and letting the strong feel
ing for Gay nor rdB its course.

The new tariff bill will become a law
before the end of the week. 1t will be
the second time in 81 years that a non
protective tariff will have been opera
tive. This bill supersedes the Payne
tariff act of August ), 1909. This win
be the first Democratic revenue
onlv'' tariff since the Wilson act of
August %, 1894 which lasted only
three years, giving place to the protec-
tive principle. Previous to 1894 was an
unbroken record of protective tariffs
! back to the Walker act Of f6f6, q
Democratic measure. The famous war
tariff was prepared largely under. the
direction of the late Senator Morrill, of
Vermont, at that time chairman of the
ways and means committee Of the
House.

Activities of Civic. and Commercial

The Rutland county farm bureau
has requested L. G. Dodge of the
United States department of agricul-
ture to recommend a man as agricul-
tural adviser for Rutland county. The
new adviser will be the sixth 70 be
employed in Vermont, the other men
being now at work in Bennington,

Idonia counties. The Rutland county
man will be the first in the state to
be supported entirely by local funds

The Bennington County Improvement
association 5 plan to award a prize to
the rural school which keeps the road
for an eighth of mile in front of the

of imitation all over the state. Bellows

ject in giving its school boys an opp0r
tunity to build grandstand at the new

That this nation faces meat short
age in the not very distant future is
now accepted as something more than
q scare. When James j. Hill began
to tell the American public what was
ahead of it he had hard work making
an impression. Now we understand
that the public wants the New Eng
land farmers to restock their pastures
and refill their cattle sheds without
much regard for the economical side.
Once in a while one of the advisers
in the situation gets at the heart of
the matter as for instance a writer
in the New York Times who explains
the New England decline in cattle in
terest: If the packers wish to get
the farmers of the East into the beef
raising habit, they should come into
this territory and build abbatoirs, and
arrange to take all the beef the farm
ers will raise at living rates Such ac-
| tion would bring a large supply from
| New England and other sections of the
/ East Without u market the farmers
| in this part of the country cannot
raise beef at a profit. With a market
they can raise beef ut a profit, in the
present condition of the milk market
If they could get fair prices for thei1
milk they could better afford to rais'
COWS for milk than steers for beef
They are now between the devil o
the milk contractors methods ano
prices, and the deep sea of the bee
market, and they find it more profitabl
TO raise onions than either cows o
steers.
