Forest and field fires do great dam
age at this season of the year and
every person should be on guard. In
New England alone. several hundred
thousand dollars worth of property
have already been destroyed this
spring and with the dangerously dry
weather and the near approach of the
forests to the village this locality is
seriously exposed. Children as well
as grown people should be reminded
of the danger and be sure that no
fires get started. Not only does a
forest fire destroy valuable property
but it also is ruinous to the natural
beauty of section and Bennington
County as the leading summer resort
county of Vermont, is, and has a
right to be. proud of the attractions
which nature has here provided.

No Line Of Comparison

And why is 1t necessary for such
a tremendous long code of laws to
cover what little fishing and hunting
there is in Vermont Newport Elk
press and Standard.
If Vermont is to be put in com
parison with Florida, and il is under
stood that the editor or the Express
and Standard has passed number of
winters in the latter state. the fishing
and hunting in Vermont are truly of
little consequence. But the real OBJ
iect OF the laws TO preserve fish and
game in Vermont is not that hunt.
ers and fishermen may secure big
bags OF game and big baskets OF FISH,
but that the people may have an OBJ
ject to take them into the great out
doors. Here in Bennington county
the fishing is probably as good as in
any section of the state, and in some
respects better, and the hunting for
upland game will compare with that
in any other county. At the same
time the actual amount of meat and
FISH secured by fishermen and hunt
ers does not figure largely in the
scheme of domestic economy But
the incentive TO get out or doors and
TO have some real object in view
when one is away from business and
his occupation is OF untold value
Bennington Banner and Reformer.
We draw no line of comparison
between the fishing laws of Vermont
and those of Florida. But few laws
apply to Florida fishing. and the
few there are, we are sorry to say,
are virtually dead ones Neither
are we against all of the fish laws of
Vermont 1t is the number and
complication OF them upon which we
remarked One could hardly read
the fish and game laws through and
decide what was really the law and
what was not. One OF these puzzling
sections was the law applied to trout
at the foot of falls or near dam.
Then the different laws as applied to
different streams, ponds and lakes.
It was like reading law for Jack.
another for Jill. and so on through
the list Possibly some of them have
been improved during the past legis.

Gov. Gates's appointment of Robert
w. Simonds of st. Johnsbury as Chair
man of the newly created industrial
accident board meets with general
approval Senator Simonds pade a
favorable impression as man of
ability with capacity for further de-
velopment in the last session of the
legislature. -Brattleboro Reformer.
The appointment of Mr.. Simonds
is distinctly to be commended SEN
ator Simonds made a good record in
the legislature and his service there
appeared TO be free from any sus-
picion of entangliHg alliance of any
kind. He did not spend his time at
the capital in trying to work through
some scheme of private interest or
benefit and his vote on important
bills was generally correct He
took special interest in the work
mems compensation bill and i; is
proper that he should head the com
mission appointed by Governor Gates
to administer the new department.
For the other two places or the
board the governor will probably
make the appointments within
a few days. The law does not
go into effect until July /. but the
accident board should be early or
ganiZed and have its plans and sur
vey made so that there will be n.
hitch when the law actually takes
effect. 1t will naturally be expected
that in order to secure the proper
point of view of the Industrial acct
dent board the other two appoint
ments will include a bona fide work
ing man of actual present Or recent
employment in some one of the in.
dustrial enterprises of the state and
ployer of labor or who is familiar
with the employers problems in act

pointments the more essential L; that
of the workingman member. From
time immemorial it has been custo-
mary to fill appointive places 18th
men of professional or business train
ing and of more or less political ten
dency. Almost never has mechanic
or artisan been selected. This new
board has to deal particularly with
accidents in the larger industrial en-
terprises of the state and with the
conditions in the plants which tend
to cause accidents. 1t is manifestly
not a matter of choice but of duty on
the part of the governor to name a
mechanic or skilled laborer in some
line to membership on this new
board. Governor Gates also has a
party responsibility in this matter.

FACULTY NOT

 SAYS SlMONDS
Can't Help It If Young Students Go to Angle Trial,
 He Explains.

Principal H. D. Sinonds of the High school today denied the report that girl students were cutting recitations to attend the trial of Mrs Helen Angle in the criminal superior court
 There may have been girl students at the trial,s he explained, ''but they were undoubtedly students who had afternoon recitatfons and were there fore free in the morning or they were morning students who had no studies in the afteknoon and could go to the court house then
 You see it is necessary to have morning and afternoon sessions be- cause or the crowded condition of the school If a boy or girl wishes to at tend the trial after school duties have been finished we cannot prevent it. A member of our faculty attended the trial yesterday afternoon and saw a number of High school girls there but said they were all morning students.''
 Has there been an unusual amount of absence?' ?'' Principal simonds was asked
 There has been no change in the ffg- ures,'' he declared we keep an ac- curate record of attendance and if a pupil is absent either from the entire session or just from a certain rectta- ton we investigate immediately So we know there have been no wholesale sss~@gaces on account of the Angle

In the meantime counsel for Thasw, as if in anticipation of just such a de- cision, had obtained from Suprema Court Justice Blur a writ of habeas corpus, which will keep Thaw in the Tombs till next Friday, March 19, when he must be produced in court.
 It was close call for Thaw, as plans had been considered by the state for returning him at once to his long time residence in the hospital for the criminal insane, Attendants from the hospital were in the court room, ready to rush him there by automobile the moment the motion for a return to New Hampshire was denied. They were prevented from doing so by the writ of habeas corpus which had been served half an hour before on Warden HanIey of the Tombs prison.
 Sheriff Grifenhagen of New York county had heard whisperings of a. plot to abduct Thaw during the brief interval when he should be out of Warden Hanley's custody in going to and from the prison and the court room. Accordingly the sheriff armed 20 deputies wit hreyolvers and scat tered them throughout the crowd that packed the court rom. Many more armed deputies were sprinkled among the crowds in the corridors.
 Thaw entered the court room look ing naty, confident and with a smile on his face. None of his relatives was present.
 When the decision was announced Thaw turned to John B. Stanchfield, of his counsel spoke few words in an undertone, and took his seat A moment later two or the sheriffs s de- puties led him away othe Tombs.

That garage owner took an au- tomobile owned by a customer and had it registered in his own name was the charge made by Jacob Sendnilxe- viecz in the common pleas court this morning when he testified in his suit against Leonard KowaIsky, Jr., of this city. He declared he paid $500 for the auto and brought it to the defeel- dant to have a delievry body put on. It is alleged that Kowa1sky took the machine, registered it in his own name and refused to give up the auto. Judge Scott and a jury are hearing the evil dence.
