A Plea For Horses.

Editor of the Caledonian:-
Did it ever occur to the wide
awake, progressive, hustling and VIZ
lie citizens of St. Johnsbury and Cal
edonia County towns that you have
a very foul blot on your escutcheons?
Did you know your Green Mount
ain State is famed in song and story
for being the home and founder of
your Morgan horses? Are these some
of them that drop dead on your brid-
ges from the last blow of the lash ly-
ing dead with wide open eyes telling
the tale of their unconscionable ag-
onny? Are these more of them that
hobbIe with broken and bleeding hip
bones along our streets so heart rend-
ing a sight as to make the onlookers
shudder with the sight of it? Are
these creatures of drivers our free
citizens and voters of this fine and
glorious state and the rest of us
bound by its laws to let such things
pass?
Can not the town of st. Johnsbury
gather together to form a humane
league right here and now? If not,
why not? Wake upi good citizens.
Drive the sufferings of the helpless
from out your midst! Hurry, please,
else surely the town does really need
a great large home for the feeble
minded and no mistake.

serviency to Great Britain or any
other country because we see fit to
repeal the tolls seems to me hardly
worthy of serious consideration. The
United States is altogether too great
and too powerful to be subservient
to anyone, and the mere fact of sug-
costing 1T seems to me to indicate
an uneasy suspicion on the part of
those from whom it emanates not
only of the validity of their position
but of the power and greatness of
their own country, as to which [, for
one, am troubled by no doubts.
1t seems to have been thoroughly
understood by the negotiators of the
treaty that the United States was
not being given special privileges in
the use of the canal and the arguing
otherwise at this time is largely
matter Of legal sharpness rather than
fair and judicial consideration. For
these reasons we believe the United
States should take the high, broad
and fearless position advocated by
its largest statesmen.
We would offer this suggestion.
Repeal the law exempting American
coastwise shipping from paying tolls.
Then appeal to England for an
amendment of the treaty allowing
the United States the right to ex-
empt its coastwise shipping and war
ships. The fact that the United
States now owns the territory in
which the canal is built is sufficient
warrant for asking for an amend
ment. The fact that coastwise ship
ping is restricted to American ships
makes a reques to treat it in a class
by itself reasonable. In exempting
coastwise shipping provision should
be made that only unbroken ship
ments from one American port to
another should be allowed the ex-
emption. 1t seems as though this
would be honorable and a satisfac-
tory solution of the problem.

The Burlington Free Press COM
menting on the congressional contest
in the second district says United
States District Attorney Alexander
Dunnett of St. Johnsbury is an
nounced by the papers on the east
side as one of the probable candidates
for Congress to succeed Congressman
Plumley, who has stated his deter
mination not to be a candidate for
reelection, as is State Auditor Hor-
ace F. Graham, in addition to the
list of possibilities already named.
Evidently there is to be no lack of
good timber in the second district, es-
pecially as other aspirants are said
to be grooming for the race. As
believers in home rule we are de-
barred from offensive partisanship'
in the second district, but we venture
the assertion that the other eandi-
dates will know the gentlemen named
have been in the running, if the con-
test is undertaken With Porter
Dale and John W. Gordon active con-
testants for the nomination it GER
tainly looks like lively summer on
this side of the state. Things are
different in the first district, however.
1t seems to be recognized there that
Congressman Greene has done good
enough work since he went to Wash
ington to entitle him to a renomina-
ton without a contest in the repub-
lican party. This is good news to
Mr.. Greene's friends all over Yer
mont.

Clty Commission government

A booklet issued by the Kansas
City Star gives some very interest
ing figures regarding the develop
ment of municipal government by
commission. In 1909 there were
only thirteen cities outside of Texas
that had this form of government.
Now over 800 cities, located in
thirty-eight states have adopted it
in complete or modified form.
The booklet says:
Kansas has 3S such cities; Penn
sylvania has %; Illinois has %;
Texas and Oklahoma, 10 each; New
Jersey, IT; Michigan and South
Dakota, 10 each; California, IL;
Wisconsin and Louisiana, 10 each;
Iowa and Alabama, nine each;
Washington, eight; Massachusetts,
Colorado, Mississippi and Tennessee,
seven each; North Carolina, North
Dakota and Minnesota, six each;
West Virginia, Utah and South Car
olina, FIVE each; kentucky and Ne
bTaska, four each; Florida, Mis-
souri,, Ohio and Oregon, three each;
Idaho, New Mexico and Wyoming.
two each; Arizona, Arkansas,
Georgia, Maine, Maryland, Mon
tana and New York, one each.
New Orleans, with a population
of $4,000, is the largest city in the
list. Others of the larger cities are:
Jersey CITY, 100000; st. Paul,
214,OOO; Denver, $4,000; Port
land, 100000; Oakland, 100000;
Birmingham, 1872, Memphis,
$4,000; Omaha, $4,000; Lowell,
100000; Spokane, 100000; San
Antonio, $4,000; Dallas, $4,000;
Des Moines. 5000; Kansas City,
Kans., $4,000.
It is also stated that no city hav-
ing adopted the plan has abandoned
it. There have been four or five
attempts to change back and in
every instance the people have voted
to retain it. With such a success
full test the plan would seem to be
one that Vermont cities and towns
might we'll consider with a view of
improving the ADMINISTRATION of
local affairs. Already a move is
under way to have a conference OF
Vermont cities on the subject but
large villages should investigate
and see if a practical plan for them
could not be worked out and the
necessary legislation enacted so
they could try it.

Special Session Talk.

By far the ablest advocacy of a
special session of the legislature is
that of the Bennington Banner edited
by Lieut.-Gov. F. E. Howe. 1t says
the committee of attorneys which
has been at work drawing up the
changes in statutes made necessary
by the changing of the state consti-
tuition has about 400 changes ready
that must be acted upon by the leg
islature and the calling of an exper-
fenced lot of law makers would be
wiser than referring the 9matter to
an inexperienced body. By making
these changes now it is possible to
avoid a large amount of expensive
litigation. The enactment Of a gen
eral Incorporation law is also neces-
sary and this might be better done
by the legislature of 1912 than wait
until the legislature of 1914. The
Banner further says
Lastly there is the direct primary.
The state voted for it by five to one.
1t is not legally necessary that we
have it this year, but it is a moral
obligation which should be needed.
The Journal is wrong in saying that
the people can express themselves
now. To say so is equivalent to say
ing that there was no need of pri-
mary, and the people have voted
otherwise.
The question before the governor
is not of absolute legal necessity
hnf Of ri oh nd
business judgment, and the Banner
believes that it is the moral duty of
Governor Fletcher to call a special
session and to call it early enough
so that the enactments may be made
somewhat understood before the
state tries to act under them. Not
only is the moral obligation COM
polling, but we believe that it would
be the best business judgment and
that it would save the state thous-
ands of dollars and many years of
litigation and trouble.
These are certainly worth serious
consideration by the governor. 1t
may be argued that these changes in
the statutes are very largely the work
of attorneys and will be very imper-
fectIy understood by the average
membership of any legislature that
acts upon them but it is incontro-
vertible that they probably would re-
ceive more intelligent consideration
by an experienced body than any
other. If there is a perfect primary
law, as claimed by it's advocates be-
fore the popular vote on the subject,
the legislature certainly should be
called at the earliest possible mo-
ment and give it to the people. 1t
looks as though the governor had a
glorious opportunity "to act for the
many rather than for the few

ing class. Sixteen, or a majority of
the latter can either vote or pass q
law. Therefore, our chief aim In
electing these members should be-
irrespective of creed, party or race
to choose men who will work for
the good of the many not of the
few. Since / have been Executive
have been accused of coercing cor
porations and many other things,

DOMAIN" who has given. me credit
for all the capital sins-has ever &C
cused me of being a politician.
At a recent meeting or the Bar
Association held in Montpelier the
Chief Justice expressed the hope
that there would be a revision in
the conducting of our lawsuits.
This would of course give the work.
ing man a chance to arrive at an
early settlement.
1t is my firm conviction that
every citizen should stand for the
country in which he lives. To fight
for right, not for wrong. That he
owes his state his vote; but that the
essence of good citizenship is: that
by his vote he safeguards the
rights of the many, not of the few.

When I received the invitation
from my friend at the right, to visit
the French people, l accepted very
gladly.
1t is a pleasure for me to meet
the people of St. Johnsbury. Prov
idence has given us wonderful
State. 1t owes the French people
something; everybody knows what
they owe. All owe the French
something, to tell you, is a difficult
task. l would have to read the His
tory of the world, all the priva-
tions, the sufferings endured in the
early wilderness of this Country by
the French, of whom you may well
be proud. This brings me to an
interesting subject: Education

The Brattlebore Reformer reprints
a part of the Caledonian's editorial
of last week concerning the failure
of the administration in handling
the Mexican question and sarcastic
cally remarks that Pres. Wilson
should let the Caledonian settle the
Mexican problem while he is away
on his Easter vacation. Al of which
emphasizes the complete failure and
inability of the president to handle
the disgraceful situation. We can
imagine no more humiliating sug-
gestion than the performance of a
presidents business by an inexper-
fenced outsider.

The town of Londonderry voted
tax of $3.50 on a dollar of the
grand list for the present year. 1t
has aroused considerable criticism
but the Londonderry Sitter ably de-
tends the move as one that will en-
ness this year and assess a more
reasonable rate of taxes in the years
to come. One thing is certain the
present indebtedness will never be
less than it is now and the more of
it that is paid now the better.

suits. At the last meeting of the
Bar Association at Montpelier, the
chief justice spoke of the necessity
of the revision of our courts of JUS
tice, and you can see that we are all
working in the right direction.
You must remember that the
House is composed of 246 men from
different parts OF the state with diff
ferent views and ideas. Tue great
majority of men come from agricul-
tural centres, and not from manu-
featuring towns and this explains
why there have been in Vermont SO
few laws enacted so far in favor of
or for the protection of the labor
ing man. Now the senate is compos-
ed of only 80 men, but 16 of them
can either block or pass a law.
Therefore see to it that you send to
the senate especially, men who will
legislate for the many and not for
the few, and for the welfare of our
beautiful state of Vermont.

Allen M. Fletcher, Governor of
Vermont.
When the invitation to visit the
French people Of St. Johnsbury was
extended to me | gladly accepted it,
and tonight l am happy to be in
your midst for l recognize that the
state owes much to the French
people, in fact, all owe the French
people very much as the pages of
history attest when it tells of the
many hardships and privations of
it's early missionaries and settlers.
well may you be proud of those
men who explored the state from
north to south. Let US continue the
work so nobly begun by them, in
not of the few.
/ have always been interested in
education which l consider should
begin in the cradle to finish in the
grave. AS far as possible, both
languages should be learned. 1 as
sure you, 1 had great pleasure in
signing the bill which lately passed
the House, giving to your college
in Winooski the right to confer de-
grees.
Some one has spoken of my atti-
tude regarding certain bills which
have been brought before the
House. Well, since taking the oath
of Office, my one aim has been the
interest of the many, not the few.
This you have seen in my attitude
towards the Labor Compensation
Act and the Commission to inves-
tigate the workings of the Tele-
phone Companies. In studying
these questions l came to the con-
clusion that if all were right, light
could do no harm; on the contrary,
it would do much good. We, on
certain questions, should pray like
the negro, who overtaken in a Sc
we're storm, unable to overcome his
fears, knelt and prayed thus:
Lord, if it is just the same to you,
please send more light and less
noise" This is exactly our situa-
ton. We make a great deal of
noise but when election day comes
we fail to appear at the polls.
At Montpelier a House of two
hundred and forty-siX members and
a Senate of thirty members repre-
sent us. The former coming mostly
from agricultural districts easily
explains why, so far, Vermont has
so few laws for protecting the labor

After the editorial page of The
Caledonian had gone to press last
week, and too late for publication,
we received a statement of the re-
ceipts and expenditures of The
Progressive Party Headquarters at
Montpelier. 1t will be found else
where in this issue. 1t is a rather
interesting statement as it will be
noted that about two-thirds of the
money for maintaining state head
quarters has been advanced by the
headquarters. Who advanced it?
This statement makes it appear that
G. H. Thompson who has devoted
all his time to work for the head
quarters has not received a cent of
compensation, thus putting Mr.
Thompson in the class of prosper
Gus appearing gentlemen without
visible means of support. They
have told some things but we would
suggest they try publicity again
and see if there is not more to be
told.
