DOINGS OF THE
LEGISLATURE
Continued from first page.)

Shrewsbury to abolish the office of at.
torney- general, to II third reading and
the test vote having been taken, the
House will probably. pass the bill with
out debate. II is expected, however.
that il will be met with stubborn opposi.
tion in the Senate and rev are confident
Of its ever reaching the governors hands
for his signature.
Action on this bill was the principal
business of interest and the yea and
nay vote was called for by Mr. Morse Of
Hardwick after Mr. Phelps Of Fair Hav-
en-, representing the minority Of the ju-
! dietary committee, spoke in favor Of
the passage Of the bill, being followed
| by Mr.. Atwell Of Brandon, who present.
ed the same views, and Mr.. Stone Of
Vergennes, who as member of the ma
jority of the eommitte, advocated the
retaining of the office.
Mr.. Phelps believed that the attorney
generals Office was an expensive luxury
to the state and thought that Vermont
was well represented by its IA states
attorneys. He spoke of the fact that
the governor could call at any time upon
any counsel he saw fit and that he be-
lieved the present executive was consery-
atiye enough to have the power placed
in his hands. He called attention to
the fact that before the office was Great
ed, the average expense for such attor-
neys year was 5000 and since the
Office had been established ii averaged
for salary and expense alone $4,000. He
admitted that the attorney general per-
formed important functions but thought
that these duties could be-attended 10
in way cheaper to the state
Mr.. Stone said that in his belief OBJ !
iections were largely due to the expense
caused by the hiring Of detectives and !
endeavored to show the need of these
detectives in certain cases to ferret out |
criminals Mr.. Foote of Cornwall and !
Mr.. Putnam Of Mddelsex also favored
the bill.
The House yesterday afternoon passed !

T0WNER RECLUSE
PREFERS DEATH
THAN Be PAUPER

Preferring death to the hum
drum life of pauper, T. j. Grove,
a recluse living at Towner, last
Sunday shot County Commits
sioner NJ. G. Critics, who lived but
few hours afterward
Grove then barricaded himself
in his cabin and held an armed
posse of SO at bay until midnight.
Unable to dislodge him by riddling
the cottage with shots, the place
was first dynamited, then fired.
AS the blaze made its way into the
room where Grove was holding
forth he leaped from a window
and amid a fussilade of shots
bolted for barn on the rear of
his property, turning to fire upon
the posse as he ran.
Two hours after he had reached the
barn the rays from . ssarchlieht which
had been brought into play to prevent a
niIht escape, disclosed his unconscious
form upon window ledge of the build
ing. His fall in the battle undoubtedly
prevented lynchine ss feeling over tho
shooting of the popular county official ran
high. Grove 10 thought to have been de.
meuted.
The battle resulted from the efforts of
Commissioner Critics to induce Grove to
become patient at the county poor farm
rather than to continue as an employe
given him
Accompanied by Sheriff John W. Blair
Connissioner Critics went to the ootlaas
of Grove in Towner yesterday morning
and told him he would be better off at the
poor farm. He agreed to 60 with them
and was told to prepare himself and be
ready by noon. He had been in ill health
and poor circumstances for some time.
At noon when the commissioner and
sheriff returned, Critics went to the door.
As he opened it, Grove opened FIRE with
a .3S.caliber revolver from within. The
first shot missed Its mark, but the second
tore through the abdomen of the commits
sioner, passing entirely through his body.
Grove then slammed the door and bar
ricaded himself. A posse was organized
hastily and the house surrounded
Grove refused to surrender and the house
was riddled with shot. He kept up his
bombardment from within, however, and
toward niehtfall dynamite was thrown
against the house but the explosion failed
to dislodge him.
Finally in desperation fire brands we're
brought into play and the place isnited.
For some time Grove remained in tho
house and it was thought that he had de-
cided to perish in the fire. At Last, how
ever, he sprane from window, fired sew
eral shots ct the posse, then dashed for
barn. 1t was during the dash that he is
supposed to have received the shot that
resulted fatally.
Two hours after Grove had made his
sensational dash searchlisht revealed his
unconscious form on the window ledge.
None of the posse was struck by bullets.
Critics was married, but had no children.
Grove was unmarried.

Under currents of acts which tecd. to

in business participated in by officers Of
courts, through their bslittline gossip,
lowers the disnity of the courts and do
feats justice. The practice i, damnable
and when clerks Of district courts stoop
