Barton Monitor.1


The Barton Monitor is absolutely
sure that the local option law is fail
ure. The Monitor might ask itself the
question whether Orleans county would
be any better with change to some
other law. Perhaps the people who live
in Rutland and Bennington counties
know more about conditions there than
the residents of Barton A change
would not affect Orleans county, but it
would make a decided difference in
some other localities where the home
residents do not want a change-Brat-
tlebOro Reformer
The Monitor is not so sure that the
local option law is failure as it is
that a good prohibition law would be
an Improvement.
Orleans county might not be better
off under the Perry prohibition law.
| Yet the Monitor believes it would be,
| from the very fact that Island Pond,
an hour s drive with an automobile
| from our larger towns, is a source of
annoyance. It's bars provide a eonven-
lent base of supply. 1t is about five
miles from Orleans county 5 nearest
town to the bars of Island Pond. The
banishing of the saloon in this place
would, the Monitor believes, prove a
benefit to Orleans county and for this
reason the Monitor believes that state
wide prohibition would directly benefit
lus.
/ The Reformer believes the people of
communities, referring particularly to
Bennington and Rutland counties, can
best judge what is good for them. and
that outside interference, from Orleans
county in this instance, is not desired
or best. On general terms this state
ment cannot be denied. On the other
hand there are particular eases in which
Orleans county has always interfered
with the affairs of Rutland and Ben.
nington counties, and no one denied
its right to do so, and vice versa.
The Monitor has already cited many
instances in which the state as a whole
takes a hand to regulate affairs in 4
certain section, against that commune
tvs wishes, perhaps. Especially is
this principle carried out when the
thing struck at is so generally admitted
to be bad as is the legalized sale OF
intoXicants as a beverage
As a matter of fact the Monitor be
lIeves Orleans county has as much anC
as good right to have its say as tt

have gambling at their ball games
even if those counties do not enforc,

rumor says they do not.

matter?
