Vermont Opportunities.

Former Yermonters returning to their
homes for a visit are constantly telling
us that Vermont scenery is as fine as
any in the world, that the state is much
.<earer the great markets than most agri-
cultural states, and that Vermont soil
can produce as much as any soil in the
land. But it also develops that they
were never told these things by their
parents and friends before they left the
state. On the contrary, they were al
lowed to 60 away with the idea that
Vermont was seriously lacking the adj
yantages to be found in other states.
Lack Of instruction about the real adj
vantages of our state has been largely
responsible for the great drain upon its
Young men and women. These facts i'm
press one with the Importance of the
present residents correctly informing
themselves about the advantages of Yer
mont compared with other places and
then diligently teaching these facts TO
their children.

Speeding in Small Towns.

Many complaints have come to the
News Office about the fast driving OF
automobiles through the main streets OF
the smaller surrounding towns, and the
villagers have become so indignant at
the offenders that it is proposed to take
the number of every car found speed
ing, and if the driver cannot be stopped
he will be arrested in his own home. The
practice of making a race track of the
long straight, street of the small vii
lagos is a pernicious one and renders it
unsafe for young children to appear on
the streets or attempt to cross.
The people of the town of Roxbury
have been become so incensed that they
are to take drastic measures to stop the
speeding and it can be done, for after
four or five arrests in Northfeld the hab-
it was fairly well broken, and if the au-
thorities OF Roxbury arrest the first per-
son seen speeding, and then keep on
arresting, it will soon discourage the
speeding habit,
Ii is unfortunate that the ones who
are so favored as to be able to drive
about our beautiful country, do not APP
preciate the privileges enough to have
a little consideration for the comfort of
those living along the highways over
which they drive.-N Mortified News.

of the British soldiers, with some irrele-

Still a Progressive.

Mr.. Roosevelt's private utteranees
have been sometimes quoted in the past
few months in the effort to show his in
tentions concerning the political bat
ties of the near future. We now get
from him public statement which will
be very closely scrutinized and perhaps
tortured into meanings that were not
in his mind. 1t viii be noted particular
ly that Mr.. Roosevelt refers very kindly
to those Progressives who have an.
nouneed their intention Of enrolling as
Republicans in New York state, and it
will be further noted that, while he him
self will enroll as a Progressive, he con-
fines his advice on this point to New
York alone. He says nothing about the
situation in other states.
The difference in the tone of Mr..
Roosevelt's statement from that of Vic
tor Murdock's the morning before is cer-
tainly striking. Mr.. Murdoch, as chair
man of the Progressive national commit
tee, seeks TO rally the party for the
presidential campaign, to infuse conf
dence into its dwindled membership and
arouse faith in ultimate victory. 1t is
the typical fighting pronuneiamento of
the party manager, although it is not
eonvincingly done. Mr.. Roosevelt's own
efforts in the same line were formerly
so thrilling, so fiery even and so abso-
lutely coeksure of the immediate death
of the Republican party that his present
statement is extraordinary by COMPARE
son.
Anyone reading again the Roosevelt
speeches in 1912 would come TO this sim
pie declaration of continued allegiance
with the feeling that an enormous
change had in reality come over the
leaders spirit. He no longer welcomes
recruits; he observes, on the contrary,
old followers deserving him and he has
no word of complaint or reproof. He
lie sure they are acting conscientious
ly in the step they now take and with
the purpose Of doing what they regard
as most useful TO the community"
IL is impossible for Mr. Roosevelt to
enroll as a Republican, but his Progress
sive followers in New York state can
60 back TO the Republican party with
what is very like a blessing from I. X.
They can enroll in the party OF the
dreadfully- wicked William Barnes even,
and still hear their old leader saying:
1T has been fine OF them TO have made
the great fight they have made during
the past three years for Progressive
principles, and am sure they are act
ing conscientiously in the step they
now take and with the purpose Of doing
what they regard as most useful TO the
What Progressive need
hesitate 10 become a Republican again,
after so sympathetic an Interpretation
OF his action BY Mr.. Rooseyelti
One may easily get the impression
that Mr.. Roosevelt wishes he himself
could get right back there into the Re-
publican trenches. But no doubt one
should guard yigilantly against an i'm
preston that might do Mr. Roosevelt
grave injustice. Ills convictions are such
he cannot possibly return but they are
such also that when others return. be

Naming few automobiles, CORE

asserts: "We are perfectly willing they
should suffer by their own foolishnessi
but we do not propose that they should

recklessness of the autoists in driving

course of action. This stands out all
the more prominently because Of his con-
sistent and generally sound European
policy. But let us, for the moment, look
south of the Rio Grande.
When Mr.. Wilson came TO the presi'
dency, in March, 1919, he inherited .
Mexican problem. Huerta was in ehec'
tive possession of the executive power
Before President Wilson had held Office
six weeks, Great Britain and many OF
the leading nations had granted recog-
milton to Huerta. The American am
bassador TO Mexico, Henry Lane Wilson,
advised similar action by the United
States. The president, however, said:
Nowhere can any government endure
sustained by blood or supported by any
thing but the consent of the governed"
President Wilson shortly after sent
John Lind as his personal spokesman
and representative" to explain to Next
co that the powers of the world expect
cd the United States ito act as Mexico's
next friend" and to advise the Mexicans
to have an election "in which all will
agree to take part" and also to bind
Gen. Huerta not to be a candidate. Then
followed vacillating policy in regard
to the expectation Of arms. In Decem-
Der Of 1913, the now classic policy OF
"watchful waiting" was announced This
was succeeded by one of "wrathful writ
ing" during which Huerta was de-
nounced as a dictator. In April, 1914.
came the Vera Cruz incident and the
demand for the apology to the flag, fol-
lowed by the fruitless, even II quoting,
A. B. G mediation.
Meantime affairs in Mexico were going
from bad TO worse; and the United
States as her next friend" was still
waiting" When, largely on account OF
the continued opposition Of President
Wilson, Huerta withdrew in July, 1914,
after having held Office for sew
enteen months, president after pres
ident followed in procession in the
capital of Mexico. The policy OF the
United States continued uncertain and
changing. In his indianapolis speech In
January, President Wilson said in regard
to the struggle of the Meyicans: 1T IS
none of my business to determine who
should be their governor or what their
government should be, and it is none OF
our business how long they take IN de-
termining it," He went on: "And so
far as my influence goes, while | am
president nobody shall interfere with
them. Have not European nations taken
as long az they wanted and spilled as
much blood as they pleased in settling
their affairs, and shall we deny that to
Mexico because she is weakI No, |
sayi"
This was the emphatically announced
January policy. Now comes the August
policy, in which he proposes Pen
American conference to adjust the Mex
lean situation This looks to us aston
ishingly like interfering with them"
What nextg What win President Will
SON do if this conference of American
powers should decide to restore Huerta
as the strongest possible occupant OF
the Mexican presidency And yet, does
