The Montpelier Argus intimates that
Montpelier will be more of an attraction
then ever for users of gasoline this year
because it can be sold at a low price. 1t
also says that, Last year people came
from miles around to purchase their gaso-
line as there was no place in the State
where it could be bought at any where
near the price for which it could be OBJ
tanned here" Guess the Argus is ''gass.

An American Opinion

The speech by Senator Henry Cabot
Lodge of Massachusetts in the United
States Senate last week should be suffi-
Gent to quiet the talk about ''un.Ameri-
canism." There is no man in this coun-
try whose patriotism is beyond question
more than Mr.. Lodge. AS writer OF
history and as a man who has had much
to do in the unwritten history OF the
past thirty years, he has high place in
his country's annals.
Now Senator Lodge takes the position
which he most emphatically defends that
patriotism calls Americans to support
President Wilson in the Panama tolls
question.
There is nothing surprising in this. Mr..
Lodge as chairman of the Senate COM
mittee on foreign relations in 1912 ex-
pressed a similar decision on the tolls
question, decision in which he was in
the company of other eminent Americans.
One very important point in the Sena-
tors speech is to be especially noted. He
was well acquainted with the late John
Hay, by whom the Hay-Pauncefote
treaty was signed. and he declares en-
phatically that Mr. Hay in signing the
treaty did so with the full expectation
and understanding that the canal was to
be open On equal terms TO the ships of
all nations.
This being the case, all talk about "un-
Americanlsm" in this connection is not
only cheap appeal to outgrown preju-
dice, but an insult to the memory of
John Hay.
MAPLE SUGAR IN DEMAND Word
comes from the center of the trade in
northern New York that the American
tobacco trust proposes to buy up this
years crop of maple syrup in that terri
tory to soak up into plug tobacco. These
new customers, it appears, can afford to
pay for the diversion of this delicious
article to this new use about what the
consumer has heretofore had to pay for
it in cans, offering 80 cents gallon by
the barrel and furnishing the barrel.
Like enough these tobacco people will
Invade Vermont and our sapboilers will
find new market for their product at a
highly remunerative price. This in turn
will be likely to raise the price to retail
purchasers and thus add to the cost of
high living. SO there you are.-Burlng

The order forbidding the use of wine
and other liquors on board vessels of the
American navy by officers of the navy, is
one that will be approved by the com
mon sense of the nation. The use of Ii
auors by sailors has long been orbidden.
1t is pretty evident that men will not
yield a very willing obedience to officers
who command them to do what the
officers are unwilling to do themselves
The men will not keep sober at the com.
mand of officers who drink liquor as they
please. OF course Secretary Daniels is
coming in for harsh criticism, especially
from daily ne wspapers that carry large
amount of advertisements of liquors.

In paying the sum of twenty-five mil
lion dollars to the United States of Co.
lumbia to square up for the taking of the
Canal Zone our government is simply
paying up for the expenses of the bully"
times. They come high. Among them
is the item of rent, S25O,OOO a year,
which we must continue to pay to the
government of Panama, in addition to
what we are paying to redeem our good
name with Columbia. The high-handed
measures by which the Canal Zone was
taken supposedly saved this country $50. :
600, 600. Now we are paying back $685.
100000 and it will take only twenty
years rent of the canal to cover the bal
ance. We should be thankful that we
are in no worse position.

hol commission spent Monday afternoon inspecting the Arkan- sas state capitol.
 Those in the party were w. B. Anthony, chairman, a former member of the Oklahoma House, P. J. Goulding, a former member of the State Senate, and Steph- en A. Douglass, the Republican member, constituting the com mission; E. w. Gist, the secre- tary, and s. A. Layton and s. lW. Smith, the architects.
 Oklahoma has made an appro- priation of $1,5OO,O00 for the state capitol at Oklahoma City, and the commissioners have been instructed to visit and in- spect a number of the modern state capitols to secure ideas that may be used in their plans. | The Arkansas capitol was the first visited, and it was inspect ed thoroughly, under the direc- tion of former Governor Dona- ghey, one of the Arkansas Cap- | itol Commissioners, and Secre- tary Benton Tunnah. The visit ors expressed themselves as most favorably impressed with the building.
 we think you have a most beautiful building, said Chair man Anthony, "and when the work now in progress is com pleted, it will be as attractive as one could wish, ,and large enough to be thoroughly adequate for the needs of a state like Arkan- sas, or even a larger state, for that matter.
 "We had heard that you had had considerable scandal in con- nection with it's erection," he continued, laughingly, land we wanted to find out what was the cause of that SO that we might avoid anything of that character in our work. As a matter of fact, ignorant criti- cism is often more harmful than the kind that is honest and with a foundation of fact, for it in- flames the minds of those who are chronic fault-fnders. Hon. est criticism is, or should be, al- ways welcome, and we want to get through without any of the dishonest kind, if we can do so. We do not anticipate any of the trouble which frequently follows 'the erection of great public build ings like this, but we desire to be well-fortifed for whatever comes up. The people of Okla homa want $1, 100000 capitol for 1,500,000, and that is what we propose to give them in the light of the best information we are able to get on this tour of inspection"
