The first application of astronomy to
geography was made by Pytheas OF
Marseilles about 32G b. c., he having
made the first observation of latitude.
Hipparchus of Nicaea, 162 B. c.. first
determined latitude and longitude.
Marinus of Tyre, about 100 b. c., was
the first to make use of Hipparchus'
teachings in representing the countries
of the world.
Clsudlus Ptolemy of Potassium. Egypt,
about l62 \. d., was in reality the first
scientific mapmaker. Notwithstanding
errors in boundaries and locations, the
method was correct. The Romans
contributed nothing to mapmaking.
No improvement was made in it from
the time of Ptolemy until the thir-
teenth century, when a map appeared
in Italy which was constructed with
the aid Of a compass. Exchange.

An Untruthful Statement

Some of the stand-pat newspapers
are just waking up to the fact that
the expenses of the State have in
creased from $1,3s4,292 in 1904 to
$3,996,56S in 1912. The Bennington
Banner denies the whole charge and
states that it is costing the State
some S1,500.0OO a year to run the
State The figures giyeE by this
paper, were taken from the office of
the State Auditor and it would seem
as though the source of information
is more authentic than the Banner
office.
To thoroughly understand the stu
alton ii must be remembered that the
editor of the Banner is the Lieuten.
ant Governor. The Banner does the
remarkable thing of deducting more
than half of the State expenses and
then making comparison with the
balance. To get at the total expenses
of the State there can be no deduc-
tions-eyerytthing must be included
even the cost OF the junketing trips
of the Governor. the Lieutenant Coy
ernor and the Superintendent of edu-
cation, under the guise of the Edu-
cational Commission. The Banner
is certainly taking undue liberties
when it does not include the total
amount OF the State expenses in MAX
ing comparison.
But taking the Banner at its word
and leaving out the bulk of the Exc
cutive items 1t Is seen that the judi
oial expenses have increased from
$393,O6s in 1904 to $799.776 in 1912,
or more than doubled Then the leg
islatye expenses have increased
from S6O,640 in 1905 to Sl9O,65S in
1913, or more than three times. The
population or the grand hist have
neithe. increased to this extent
These are purely expenses and do not
include the items that have been de-
Quoted from the Banners compari-
son.
No one will question that there is
a good reason for an increase in the
expenses of conducting the State gov.
eminent and some of the increase is
we'll expended but the great majority
of the taxpayers did not know until
recently just what this increase
amounted to. The question is mat
the State is spending too much
money and there seems to be no end
in sight.
While this paper may be having d
lovely time Owe showing up the ex.
trayagance of Republican manage
ment, It has certainly stirred up a
mares nest in the office OF the Ban
ner. Figures from the office of the
State Auditor show that State eX-
penses have increased from $t.Ss4,292
to $3,9s6.569 during the past ten
years. or course if the editor OF the
Banner knows more about it than the
State Auditor, then it will be up
to this pape. TO make correction. In
the meantime il would be interesting
to have from official sources de-
tailed statement showing just where
the increase has been made, with
items and figures. Burlington Clip

The auditors report on the finances
of the town OF Bennington is printed
in today's issue of The Banner II
shows that during the past year the
debt of the town has increased $500
and to cover that increase the audi
tors recommend a tax of eighty cents
on a dollar which is twenty cents on
a dollar more than last year and ten
cents more than for several proceed
ing years. The report is not very
clear to the ordinary reader and
might be improved but on the whole
is rather better than usual in this re-
spect. The chief point Of general
interest is that the income OF the
town the past year was about $4,000
and the expenses about S4l,5oo. In
other wo DIS the town ran behind
some $500 and the town debt which
was $4,000 last year is Sll9.5o0
now. There were some extraordi-
nary expenses last year The wash
outs last spring cost S437S from the
general fund Of the town and the
state tax amounted to S2790 while
the purchase OF Imperial avenue
cost the town $500. The total Of
.hese three is almost $4,000 while the
$500 voted to the Bennington county
Improvement association brings the
amount to $500 The auditors also
list as extraordinary expenses $500
expended on Harwoo hill. $500 on
the North Bennington road and
S24oo spent on the river. The Ban
ner would hardly call these exuaor-
binary expenses for every wear The
town must expect TO meet some bills
Of this character As far as the
-oads expenditure goes the extra ex-
pease was a good investment FOR IN
consideration Of what the town did
the state paid into the town treasury
ever $1,000. In fact this state road
department seems TO be about the
most profitable thing the town did
last year. The business record Of
the past year should be a lesson 70
the town. both officials and voters.

to pay their routine bills as they go
along. II is sometimes necessary to
go into debt for a big thing, but it is
mighty bad business for an in,
diyidual or a town to run in debt ON
regular running expenses. 1t is like
mortgaging the home to buy an au-
tomobile. The town of Bennington
has had one striking example of that
policy in connection with the old
Lebanon Springs railroad debt The
town owed that debt and our ances-
tors and predecessors Of generation
ago ought to have paid the bill In
stead OF that they spent money
enough to pay it in jockeying and in
litigation and the taxpayers of Ben
nington have had to pay the expens-
es of their mismanagement and we
haven't got the railroad debt paid
yet. Let us beware repeating that
piece of folly.

FRANK E. HOWE, Editor and Pub,
BENNINGTON, VT, FEB. 10, 1914.

Some of the stand-pat newspapers
the expenses of the State have in
creased from $1,384,292 in 1904 to
SS,996,563 in 1912. The Bennington
Banner denies the whole charge and
states that it is costing the State
some $1,500,0O0 a year to run the
state. To thoroughly I'M
derstand the situation it must be re-
membered that the editor of the Ban
ner is the Lieutenant Governor.
% Figures from the office Of
the State Auditor show that State ex-
penses have increased from $1,3S4,-
292 to $3,996,569 during the past ten
years. OF course, if the editor of the
Banner knows more about it than
the State Auditor, then it will be up
to this paper TO make correction
Burlington Clipper.
Now honestly, you would think
wouldn't you that man or a news
paper caught making rank misstate-
ment about his own state would
want to be set right on the subject,
You would think that We mont
newspaper would have enough pat
riotc pride in Vermont not to persist
in wrong report after its error has
been pointed out But ii seems that
the Clipper doesn't feel that way.
Then too, notice what the Clipper
works in about the editor of the Ban
ne. being lieutenant governor This
is to gently and kindly lead its read
ers to infer that the Banner is lying
about state expenses because the edi-
fee Finally note that brotherly and
fraternal kindness with which the
Clipper seeks to make its readers be-
lieye that the state auditor has said
one thing and the Banner another.
Now the Banner doesn't believe the
Clippe got its figures from the state
auditor. Our opinion is that the Clip
per saw a report and failed. TO under
stand the figures given. Bat the
Clipper says that it got its figures
from the auditors Office. II the Clip
per wants to be fair why not ask the
state auditor. The Banner will make
the Clipper an offe,. The Clipper
has said that the state expenses
have risen to s3,99600O per year
The Clipper also says that 1t got the
figures from the auditor. Now let
the Clipper ask the auditor and if he
says that the Clipper is right or even
approximately right the Banner will
pay the expenses of the editor OF the
Clipper for a trip to Europe and re-
turn. On the other hand the Banner
has said that the expenses of the
state OF Vermont are under S1501,.
900 If the auditor doesn't state hat
the Banner is right or approximately
right the Banner will subscribe for
the Clippe.. for a hundred years and
pay in advance. The only stipula-
ton that the Banner insists on is
that the Clipper shall print in its
editorial columns what the auditor
reports. If the auditor says the Clip
per is right it has full leave 10 call
attention to it while If the Clipper is
wrong we shall of course expect the
Clipper 10 confess its mendacity.

"Rudyard KipIins Seen Through Hin

scenes Of Indian life that continually

have entered the massive palaces OF
pompous Rajahs and the humble
home of the poverty stricken peasant

For instance take the story Of Kim
The characte. of Kim has been treat
ed in a similar way to that of Ham

tor of a Darieeling newspaper. the
PAN Mall. Kim is no other than Tim
Doolan. Jr. Shortly after the so
called Indian Mutiny of 1857. a com
pany OF British soldiers were garri-
soned on the drea-y. sunless heights
of Seneshan. peak OF the Himalay-
as. not far from Darieeling. There
the sun shines on an average of three
days year, and there a romantic
Irish sergeant fell in love with a
beautiful Tibetan girl. The sergean 5
name was Tim Doolan. He eloped
with the Tibetan beauty and crossed
the frontier to live with her people
on the DO derland. Nothing more
was heard OF Sergeant Dooan for
another twenty years. when his son.
Tim Doolan. Jr.. was arrested IN the
market place in Darjeeling for muir
der. Young Doolan was very fair in
complexion. with blue Irish eyes and
red hair. although he spoke only Tib-
etan The British authorities looked
him over suspiciously and wondered
at the Irish type and Irish name.
Later papers belonging to Tim Doc

origin and identity OF the son. were
found on the accused. who. like Kim
valued the papers as a charm. The
sergeants rifle and side arms were
also found afterward in Doolan's hut.
