The Legislature

H
Discomfort over the ever-mountfng
cost of state government has led to
many suggestions of possible reduc-
tions and among them is one that
calls for a 60-day session of the
legislature. There is no doubt that
the suggestion is made in all good
faith, and that it is confidently ex~
pected that it would bring about a
lessening of the legislative expense,
especially as Vermont solons are
paid SO much a day for their SER
vices.
But IL may be suggested that
when tinkering with the legislature
something more than lessening the
cost Of having the body with us
every two years must be borne in
mind. The purpose of a legislature
is to pass laws, and we should be
most concerned with the output of
the legislative mill, although it is
perfectly proper that the cost Of
production should command share
of our attention.
Now 1t is admitted that some leg
fslati0n is needed, but legislation in
the bulk and crudeness that come
ont of The average session is de-
cidedly not needed and is a drug on
the market. In common with other
states, Vermont has suffered from
6ver-pF0duction. There is no more

REBELS AGAIN SPLIT
CARRANZA CUTS OF SUPPLIES
FOR VILLA.
Breach Between Leaders Grows Wider
and Advance on Mexico City
Amounts to Race.

Monterey, Mex, June 29-The
breach between Carranza and Villa is
growing deeper and more menacing
every day, Notwithstanding protesta-
tions of loyalty and common interest
issued by both sides for the newspa-
pers of the United States.
CarranZa has ordered railroad COM
munication between Saltillo and Tor
reon suspended. This cuts off Villas
column from a very important source
of supplies, including any which might
come through the port of Tampico.
Villas request for train load of coke
to be used in operating the line south
from Zacatecas has been ignored.
Outposts have been stationed along
the line south of Saltillo to report any
movement of Villas troops in this di-
rection, indicating the state of appre-
hension felt in the Carranza camp.
Villa appears to be giving no heed
to the campaign plans which consti-
tute Carranza the first chief of all the
rebel forces. He has made no official
report from Zacatecas direct to the
constitutionalist headquarters. The
details of that fight, which was second
in Importance to the great battle of
Torreon, only reached Carranza on
Sunday. They came unofficially via
FL Paso and Laredo, where they were
published two days ago.
The advance on Mexico City now
amounts to a race between the divided
rebel factions. Villas announced plan
is to proceed from Zacatecas to Aguas
Calientes south along the line of the
Mexican Central railroad. The Car
rama forces are to take the route via
San Luis PotoSi.
General Obregon is said to have re-
ceived orders to prevent Villa from
getting assistance from the Pacific
side.
