not able to give any relief. The
Monitor should have continued and
stated that the Republican party is
unable to cut state expenses. In fact
about the same thing is admitted as
Governor Fletcher was elected as a
Republican and until he announces
change of heart he can be considered
Republican. The matter is now get
ting right down to where the Repub-
lican party is going to take all the
blame for the plundering of the state
treasury and is going to try and justify
its course. There is only one way
to cut state expenses. only one-that is
to spend less money. Anyone with
common sense-knows that and if the
party in power has sincere desire to
make public expenses lower all it has
to do is to spend less money. When
the state auditor gave out the state
ment showing the large increase in
state expenses there was a mild pro-
test from the G. o. P. press but now
these same papers are trying to show
that the expenses were all necessary.
TIE Republican organization wants
big state expense Tor how
is it going to keep up its "fences"
unless the "faithful' are fed with
good paying offices and commissions.
When business man cuts expenses he
spends less money-it can be the same
way. with the, state. But there has got
to be an honest desire to spend less
and the principle has got to be carried
out in practice. Taking the Barton
Monitor at its word the people cam OF
expect any retrenchment in state eX-
penses through Governor Fletcher or
the Republican party. 1t is simply for
the people to say if they will stand for
detective charge of $4,000 a year.

manufacturers and boards of trade, |
has been sent out by the secretary of
the association:
Gentlemen: During the last few
months the thoughts of the people of
Vermont have been turned very
strongly toward agriculture. Nine of
the fourteen counties have been organ
lied for the support of county agents
who will advise with the farmers and
improve agricultural conditions. Five
counties now have agents at work. In
counties not yet organized, boards of
trade have taken up with the office of
farm management at Washington the
problems of county organization and
the ultimate securing of advisers sfor
their counties. 1t is now high time to
bring forcibly to the attention of
Vermonters and of the people of other
states that there is not only IAN
Agricultural Vermont but also "An
Industrial Vermont Neither the
outside world nor we ourseles begin to
appreciate the quantity or the quality
of the industrial output of the Green
Mountain state. There is a conven-
tional notion abroad that Vermont is
an agricul tural state with almost no
Industrial realizations or possibilities
The Vermonter is too often ignorant
of the industries at his very doors.
And yet, through personal experiences,
through direct observation, every
citizen ought to become well-in-
formed and intelligently enthusiastic
advertiser for his home industries.
How can this be accomplished? If
manufacturers and boards of trade
approve, and will cooperate, the
Greater Vermont association will be
happy to set in motion throughout the
state plan for a vermont Industries
Day." day especially set apart
during which the manufacturers will
hold open house for visitors, will be at
home to the members of the civic and
commercial organizations of their
communities. Such day would make
our industrial activities bulk larger in
the interests of the people, would
make our Industrial possibilities evil
dent and convincing. An intimate
acquaintance with local enterprises can
be secured by the citizens only through
the cooperation of the manufacturers
with the members of the civic and
commercial organizations. If the
manufacturers as hosts and guides will
extend invitations to local organizations
the response will be hearty and decided
benefits will accrue to all concerned.
Day" is carried out in the entire
commonwealth on the same date, it will
have good effect upon ourselves, and
upon the people of other states, who
will become interested and attentive.
A vermont Industries Day" will
advertise that there is an "Industria
Vermont" and that we propose tt
enlarge it. What do you think of the
plan? VIII you cooperate? What are
your suggestions?
Yours very truly,
James P. Taylor, Secretary.
