topic che Measure of Success" In the

residentn a good conscience, good health,
a good ONE. in congenial work and the
power appreciate the riches which
every ma has at hand.
He saidthe measure of success was not
a golden nrdstick, and that wealth did not
mean Success in every case The fact that
there wer, many cases in which wealth
meant the opposite of success and cost
more than my man could afford to pay
was clearly rought out. But the speaker
also showed 'ividly how wealth might be
a blessing an a power for good
Mr.. Crockett did not believe success to
be obtained W merely getting oneself
into high position, and particularly not
when the posithn was a political one.
He said, in passing, that what allied YER
mont seemed to bethat we had made poll
tics Nermont's chlf business He fought
the position a man gained was not neces-
sarily success. The conclusion was that
success IS less a inter of what one has

with Legal Officer.

The annual report of Ezra NJ. Horton,
city attorney, for the year 1913 has been
completed and fled Mr.. Horton cites
the case of Leary VS.. the city of Bur-
lington as the most important litigation
Of the year IN which the city has been
engaged. Judgment Of $500 was obtain
ed against the municipality The COM
pany which insured the city against
claims for damages in the electric light
department refused to defend the case
on the grounds that the city had violated
the terms of its insurance policy. The
question of liability will be finally decided
when the case has been passed upon by
the supreme court. The other important
cases in which the city is now interested
are the action against the Central Yer
mont Railway company, which embrace
the quest lions of a public dock and the
extension of College street to the lake.
These cases have been heard and are
now with the commissioners who have
the report. This will terminate the
litigation and give the city lake
front property for a public wharf and
extend College street to the waters edge
The city attorney calls attention to the
fact that legal questions have arisen in
all the departments this year and points
out as a necessary the fact that the
officials should keep in constant touch
with the clty's legal officer The report
mentions that the mayor and board Of
aldermen have demonstrated that they
are city managers, having an action
begun by them finally sustained by the
court of chancery which established their
powers as to the control of city officers.

NEW YORK CITY AS A STATE
Some of the Startling Things That
Would Involve.
(From the New York World)

(From the New York World.)
The idea of making New York city a
separate State, many times suggested in
earlier years, Is seriously advocated by
local real estate man in a published
interview. 1t is interesting at least, to
think of an independent metropolis, con-
Quoting its own councils and affairs free
of all appeal to and meddling from AL
bany; adding to its own heavy burdens
no tax tribute to up the State;' repre-
scented at Washington by its own sem
ators and representatives; having Its
own star on the national flag.
If this new State were to be created:
1t would be third in the Union in point
of population, only Pennsylvania and
Illinois SURPRISING it.
1t would rob Rhode Island of her place
as the smallest State in the Union terri
| torally. Little Rhody" would make al
most four Greater New Works
1t would have the greatest system OF
| State police.
1t would furnish the single American
example Of a state almost wholly given
! 10 urban interests, professionally, COM
mercally and industrially, the agricll
tural and pastoral element being but d
small fraction.
1t would have to extradite criminals who
succeeded in crossing the line Of Yonkeri
or Mount Vernon, easily reached by sub
way train or trolley.
1t would present political condition;
brand new to the reckOning-possibly
such as to settle right here the ISSUE
of presidential campaign.
1t would probably end the condition o
political uncertainty long prevalent IL
the Empire state, and would leave up
State" New York bereft of much of IT
political prestige.
It would be a State largely with paw
ing contracts in place Of good road
movements.
II would add materially to the lont
list OF complexities over the regulation
of Interstate traffic.
