The proposition to put tax of ) per
cent on railroad freight rates is an inter
esting one. For years the eastern rail
roads have been trying to get an increase
in freight rates, to counterbalance ex-
penses, and thereby maintain railroad
credit Five years ago specific petition
for a , per cent increase was denied by
the interstate commerce commission. The
tax it would impose on industry was held
to be altogether out of proportion to the
benefits concurred on railroads, and indi-
rectly on the public. But now it is pro-
posed to advance rates 3 per cent through
the medium Of tax, proceeds to go into
the national treasury, for no other reason
than that it is held to be the easiest way
for the government to collect needed reve-
nues.

gether too common, namely, the wanton
destruction of road signs by using them as
targets for shot guns, rifles and pistols, or
for less dangerous but often quite as de-
structive missiles thrown by hand. These
road signs are a decided protection to
everyone who rides or drives. Whether
the average user of the roads travels in
them or not, he or she must admit that
automobiles have become as common as
any other vehicle 1t must also be admit
ted that their usefulness depends on their
time-saving and long-distance qualities,
which demand a much higher rate of
speed than was possible with horse drawn
vehicles. With such conditions existing,
it is for the interest of everyone to safe
guard this traffic as much as possible.
Signs plainly designating dangerous curves,
bad grades, highway or railroad crossings,
etc, which have been erected on the main
roads largely by automobile associations
and dealers, are great aid and protec-
tion to the automobile driver as well as
to those who are on the road, either in
motors or horse-drawn vehicles.

No War With Vermont.
Concord Monitor.l

We are glad to coincide with the St
Adams, Vermont, Messenger in the opin-
ion that there will be no war between
Vermont and New Hampshire over the
disputed question of the boundary line
between these sovereign states, even
though commissions appointed to effect d
settlement of the difference have failed to
do so.
Thanks to Adjutant General Tutherly' s
consistent, continuous and intelligent eff
forts New Hampshire is better prepared
for war today than ever before in her his
tory In "A hours she can put in the
field "a small but efficient force of armed
men perfectly equipped for active field
service.
If United States Marshal O'Nei, the
chief instigator of the issue, should say
the word, we could have the New Hamp-
shire state flag flying over those Bellows
Falls factories, which are the chief bone
of contension. before the Green Mountain
Boys could have rallied to their standard.
But Marshal O'Neil will not say the
word The question at issue will go to the
United States Supreme court for peace
able settlement and if the militia of the
two states ever go to war-which God
forbid-it will be side by side against a
foreign foe.

Borrowing from Your Widow.
Boston Herald. }

How much have you borrowed on
your insurance policy, or "of your
widow!' How did you acquire the
habit of making it your bank, and
where are you going to stop9 Here are
questions of no small Importance Just
now in the business situation.
In their early days, life insurance
companies, in their desire to accom-.
modate every possible patron, accept
ed premium payments partly in cash
and partly in the insured s note BY
1874 the practice of consolidating such
notes into one loan, which was made
reserve on the policy, came into vogue.
Six years later one of the leading com
panies notified its agents that it would
make general loans on its policies, an
arrangement which gained such head
way that the Armstrong legislation
made it compulsory on every New
York insurance company to loan its
policy holders on demand 1.-the full
amount of the reserve against the poll
cy.' The same law forbids the com
pany to have cash surplus exceeding
| five per cent out of which to advance
| these sums.
The loaning habit now raises some
serious questions. In times like this,
a savings bank may protect itself by
requiring go days notice on with
drawing deposits; but not the life
insurance companies. Some of them
today are wondering what will be the
effect on their reserves of the reopen
ing of the stock exchange, with the at
! traetive investment opportunities pre-
sumably TO be then presented.
In ordinary times 80 per cent of
these loans are never paid until the
policy natures when the amount is
deducted from the principal. This, of
course, defeats the purpose of the
life insurance. The individual is pro
tected only to the extent of the excess
of his policy over what ne owes on it.
Even before the present war insurance
men began to consider steps toward
checking the loan practice. Several
of the biggest companies last year
changed the rate of interest from five
per cent to six, but this had little eff
feet Some managers now make efforts
to get the loans paid when due. point
ing out in circular letters to the policy.

his insurance at the figure originally
intended.

two years ago Brattleboro had not only
chosen its representative but he was al

the comparison Is not fair one for the
reason that two years ago the date of
earlier than it is this year, but seriously
it is not often that the time for choosing
a representative approaches as close as it
has this year without matters assuming

Gratis and Progressives have arranged to
hold their caucuses Monday evening, but
nobody with whom The Meddler has come
in contact claims to have the slightest
knowledge of the identity of the
nominees. All parties seem to be up
against the same proposition: namely
the finding of a candidate who is at once
capable, willing to run and a good vote
getter There are plenty of men who pos
sess one or two of the qualifications but
very, very few who seem to have all
three. Then again there is the possibility

seems to be giving the Republicans some
concern, although this seems to be hardly
more than a remote possibility in view of
the fact that Brattleboro Democrats had
considerable to do with preventing fusion

The Meddler such combination is ex-
tremely unlikely for two reasons aside
from the one mentioned. First, the party
label counts for 50 much less in the choice
of a representative than on county and
state tickets that d formal coalition would
be hardly worth the effort Second, actual
fusion cannot take place on a one-man

AMUSEMENT NOTES.
A DECIDED LAUGHING HIT.
The Misleading Lady Highly Com

In reviewing The Misleading Lady

comes to the Auditorium tomorrow at

Herald says: "Such a mixture of mel

with surprise or wondering what would
happen next. -
One of the principal surprises is :.

Also he creates no end of amusement

and is then marched back to the san

sing the Marseillaise, to keep up the
sad delusion.
This, however, is only one incidca:

ment of the fair sex that IS sure to
create discussion and develops n.elo-
drama, farce, and vaudeville by fits
and starts, so that from one thing to
the next the spectator is KEEP. i'll Il STATE

Besides being a curiosity in the play
line, The Misleading Lady is one of
the decided laughing hits of the year.
