Come Back.

It was dusk as pulled into a ram
shackle and seemingly deserted house,
not far from a village in this county, to
water Delille and as I walked up to
the stable my host walked out from
the kitchen door and babe me welcome.
inviting me to put Delille up and join
him at supper. In entering the house
I naturally looked around for one of
the fair sex. without whose presence
home is always desolate. But none
appeared and 1 soon learnt from my
host that he was alone and while eating
our supper he told me his unhappy
story, which can best relate to you in
the following words.
Come back sweetheart and I'll forgive,
Come back and I'll forget.
Come back once more to dear old home,
While homes remaining yet!
| wander through the silent rooms,
Sweet with your fragrance still.
They've lied to me, I'll not believe,
:, That you have done me i'll.
I'll stand out in our happy lane,
And meet you at the gate,
Come back, sweetheart, to dear oil
home,
Come back ere it's too late!

Miles on Equal Suffrage.

Judge Miles. chief justice of the
supreme court Of Vermont, a Barton
man, has the following to say in the
last number of the Advance which was
devoted to the suffrage question:
[ have never advocated the right of
woman to vote upon the narrow and
selfish ground that the individual
woman would be benefited by it, apart
from the benefit to the public general
ly, for have never thought that their
of EQUAL rights with men. It is where
her interest unites with those of men
and where each are equally affected by
the disposition Of ethical questions
affecting the state generally that
woman can accomplish much by the
power of the ballot in combating the
evil tendencies of the time. Man and
woman are as unlike in their mental
makeup as they are in their physical
structure and it takes both to make up
society, a state or a nation, and there
fore it takes both to know and under
stand the wants and necessities and
what is for the best good of all the
people. At one time when member
of the Vermont legislature I carefully
looked ZIP the statistics relating to our
common schools-the number of our
citizens who have completed their
education in such schools and the sex
of the teachers-and | was surprised to
learn that more than 80 per cent of the
citizens of Vermont at that time had
finished their education in the common
schools and that about 80 per cent of
those schools were taught by female
teachers.
1t then occurred to me as it does now
that, if woman has the ability to
prepare the citizen to vote, she ought
to go along with the pupil to the
ballot box, especially as she is as
much interested in the affairs Of
government as any other citizen.
The right to vote is Inherited right
dependent upon no condit ton or it is
no right at all. and therefore the
argument that women do not want it,
and would not use it if they had it, is
specious and not sound. If no ssuse,
like the sentinel upon the tower, it's
influence is felt by him whose duties
fall within it's range. The union of
the counsels of men and women will
make perfect whole from which must
come a harmony in the law as affect
ing both. and the right is coming and
soon will be with us in Vermont.

SOCIAL UNREST.

The condition of the Industrial
classes is distinctly better today
than ever before. In Great Brit
ain as a result of recent social
legislation enacted to meet and
to allay this unrest, there are
100000 OF workers who are
insured by the government
against unemployment and dis
ability caused by accident or
sickness. There are hundreds Of
thousands Of aged men and Wo-
men drawing pensions from the
state, while 100000 people ev-
cry week receive medical relief
for which the government pays
the bill, and during the past year
100000 mothers not only receiv-
ed free medical care in giving
birth to their children. but in adj
dition were granted a considera-
BILE cash bonus. Yet in the face of
these facts the demands of the
proletariat grow apace and en-
ployers are kept in constant
dread of labor troubles.-Rev.

A turtle weighing IL pounds was

No trace has been found of Fred

correction early Thursday morning by
cutting their way through a ceiling

along the ridgepoles of slate roofs Of a

this perilous journey and reach the

sometimes 80 feet above the ground,
which would battle many.a man.
Sheriff C. E. Mann has received the
report of the state board of health on

proper ventilation provided throughout

needs overhauling and more radiation
must be provided for heat in intensely

of the people should he call a special

one. inviting other parties in the state
to join them so far as practical to
save expenses and confusion in pri-
mary. The Progressives have not
gone that far and the Democrats have
not made a move. What will the
Progressives do if they do not drive
Governor Fletcher to have special

The Brattleboro Reformer pops up
every time man is mentioned for
congress and wants to know where he
stood on the Brattleboro railroad stu
alton. If the Reformer expresses the
sentiment of the people of Brattleboro
in this respect we mistake the citizens
of that place That a mans position
on certain piece of legislation affect
ing a locality determines whether that
person is a fit person to represent this
district in congress or not is poor
reasoning.
Our opinion formed from reading the
Reformer would be that qualifications
don't count. The first and only ques-
ton we have noticed the Reformer
asking about the congressional candi-
dates is. "Did they favor Brattleboro
in that railroad fght?" Was it not
possible for man to be sound of
mind, large in intellect, honest with
his conscience and upright in his de-
meanor and still oppose the stand the
Reformer took in the matter? Was
Brattleboro united to a man? And is
every man opposed to certain policies
unfit for public trust of any kind? We
think the Reformer has fallen below its
usual standard of broadmindedness
whenever it throws this matter into
the face Of men qualified for public
Office.

Costly Service.

The reason why Vermont's detective
work costs so much is because Vermont
isn't so content as formerly to let
criminals escape; but even at that the
state is paying quite a goodly sum of
money every year to single detective
agency. Without questioning in the
least the ability of this agency to Sc
cure fugitives, one might consider that
the work could be done cheaper by state
officials except perhaps in the major
crimes. We employ men to do that
sort of work in every town and county
and they are considered fairly compe-
tent men in that class Of work We
might give them more chance to dem
onstrate it.-Barre Times.
