SUCCESSFUL SKIN DRAFTING

Friday evening at the Canyon Hos
pital DR.. F. NJ. Cole, assisted by Drs.
Miller and Cue, performed on the lit
tie daughter of Mrs. Mccartney d
skin drafting operation. The child
was severely burned about eight
months ago and when treated the
work was badly done and the burned
arm grew to the burned side.
At the time of the accident about
one-hfth of thesurface was burned.
About three weeks ago the arm was
loosened from the side, and last night
the old scar tissue was removed and
fresh gratis put on the raw surface.
More gratis will have to be made and
it will be two on three months before
the child will be able to leave the hos
pital. The surgeons are we'll pleased
with the work of the evening.
The donations of skin for grating
purposes were made by Mrs. McCarr-
ney, the girls mother; Nellie Gray,
and Mrs. Whitman, aunts of the girl,
Mrs. B. w. Rice, R. K. Beatty, VIM.

the Saratoga hotel in this city in event

hind should shove it out 1t is easy
to be seen that water one time rushed
over this region at depth of fifty or
sixty feet, \ reef of tree roots and
bark that foated on the crest of the
flood is to be seen four or FIVE miles
west OF the city at an elevation of fifty
or sixty feet, and the gravel piled
fifty feet high along the wagon road
in the canyon at the Boise river
bridge shows that something was do
ing here long time ago, but the
quantity of water in the Arrowrock
reservoir would not be a drop in the
bucket compared with that. The fall
in the river is thirty feet to the mile
from Arrowrock to Boise and ten
feet from Boise here. The wide val
ley would spread the water out and
slow it up and the narrow canyon
here would hold it back. If it were
possible for the dam to go out. it
would hardly be possible that water
would be foot deep at main and

that were so thoroughly discussed in
the last Legislature. One may not
agree with its position on all these
questions, but yet welcome a full and
free discussion of every State issue.
To take from the Bennington Banner,
the Brattleboro Reformer and the
Burlington Free Press and some other
State papers their Illuminating opin
ions on Vermont affairs and replace
them with discussions of the tariff, the
currency, the Mexican muddle, Bryan's
resignation and our attitude towards
Germany in the great war would
greatly lesson their influence and be
antagonistic to our ideals of Vermont
newspaper. Vermont for Vermonters
is a good slogan in the editorial columns
of every Vermont paper and most of
our exchanges indicate that their
editors have adopted that slogan. We
should regret to see our brother editors
drop Vermont issues for national is
sues, though suggested by a trained
editor and loyal Vermonter to do it.

CARE WITH GASOLINE.
Barre Times.

In three Vermont cities recently there
have been fires caused by the careless
handling of lighted matches in garages
or in places where gasoline is stored,
but. fortunately none of the Incidents
turned into serious proportions. The per-
son who will be guilty of such careless
ness is the sort of a person who will hold
a lighted match over an open keg of
gunpowder and still expect to continue
in this mundane sphere. Other people
have a right to the safety of themselves
and their property, even if the fools
care nothing for their own existence.

VERMONT CATTLE HEALTHY.
Brattleboro Reformer.

A clean bill of health is of great value
in cattle breeding, not only in results
on the farm, but in the sale of stock.
The announcement was made with the
weight of authority at the meeting of
the Vermont Holstein- Friesian club in
Rutland yesterday that this State was
freer from tuberculosis in cattle than
any State in the union. 1t was further
stated that this condition is becoming
well-known in the country at large,
with the result that many buyers of
fancy herds are coming here to make
purchases.

FRICTION OF THE LOCAL PAPER,
Springfield Reporter.

The principal speaker at the mid
summer gathering of the Vermont
Press Association at Barton last week
was Congressman Greene who said in
his address that he wished the YER
mont press would discuss national sub
jects more instead of State subjects.
There is where we differ. Under the
able editorship of Frank Greene the
St. Adams Messenger gave particular
attention to Vermont affairs and the
development of the spirit of the New
Vermont was largely the outgrowth of
those editorials and his effective
public speaking along the same lines.
Now that he has become a Con-
gresham it would appear that his
viewpoint has changed from State
to a national perspective, else why
should he advise his old confreres as he
did at Barton.
The great majority of the readers of
Vermont papers read some out
side dailes where national affairs are
given due prominence, many of the
editorials being written by specialists
in their subjects. And the Vermont
editors are doing greater service to
their constituency by their continued
discussion of Vermont affairs. The
st. Johnsbury Caledonian has been one
of the foremost in its careful analysis
of Vermont finances, and more re-
Gently by giving especial attention
to the agricultural resources of the
State. The Randolph Herald and News,
one of the ablest edited weeklies in
New England, discusses Vermont
affairs, particularly the educational
problems, with great clearness and
forcefulness. Under its new editor
ship the Middlebury Register has be-
come one of the influential weeklies
by similar editorials, clothed in the
choicest of English and with literary
charm that is delight to every reader.
Since the Rutland Herald has again
a Vermont journalist as editor,
State affairs have been given especial
prominence, particularly the matters

ADVICE FROM BRATTLEBORO.
Brattleboro Reformer.


William A. Graustein, milk dealer
in Cambridge, Mass, has filed a volun-
tary petition in the United States dis
trict court admitting that he has debts
of $l6l, 20S.91. The principal un-
secured creditor is Charles E. Pinney
of Middlebury, Vermont, who has a
claim of $50, 900. Presumably Mr..
Pinney represents numerous Addison
county farmers who sold milk to the
man now bankrupt. There have been
several cases in recent years of farmers
in the State being badly stung by milk
buyers in the large cities. These
buyers at the best pay price for
milk which well informed producers say
is Improbable. If our farmers persist
in selling milk to city dealers they ought
to have positive assurance of the
financial reliability of the men to whom
they ship their products. Regardless of
this phase of the situation we think
that if they will take time to look about
little they will find that the men who
are making money on Vermont farms
today are not furnishing milk for far
away dairy companies. When milk is
made into butter or cheese at home
there are valuable by-produets to be
fed to the stock on the farms and the
keeping of more stock adds to the fer
tility of the farms.

COMMUNICATIONS.
DANGEROUS.

To the Editor of the Register:
We see that meeting has been
called for the evening of the 23d, for the
purpose of deciding upon whether the
new industry in the east part of the town
can operate tractor en- rine on the town
roads or not. Perhaps we should say
road as they will have one runway,
from the quarry to the station.
Now as some of US won t be called upon
to speak at that time we take this
means of spe aking to the public.
We wish to ask why peoples lives
should be endangered in such a way,
while the quarry have other means to
convey their marble The road will
be destroyed whatever way they
use. But people will be endangered
in only that one way. The road is
not fit for such a cOntrivance, there
are barely two rods of this road that
would enable a team to clear away.
Around the bend by the rock is the
most dangerous of all. If team were
going west and met the engine by the
rock it would be impossible to turn
about.
We think that land owners and tax
payers should have a little consideration.

VERMONT SENATORS CRITICISED


To the Editor of the Register:
have always been proud to say that
l spent the first twenty-one,year of my
life in dear old Vermont, the banner
State of Uncle Sans domain. The
loyalty of her voters to the principles
of the Republican party, so highly en-
dorsed by Lincoln, Blaine, Garfield,
Mckinley Foote, Morrill, and others,
which led her voters to give a Republi
can majority greater than the total
Democratic vote, a record which no
other State in the nation can claim, has
made me proud of being a Vermonter
Now am thoroughly Disguised to learn
that its State Senators have refused o
sustain the Woman's Suffrage bill,
passed by the wiser and better members
of the House. 1t is greatly to be
regretted by her children now living
in other States, to witness the stupidity,
ignorance, narrow mindedness, lack of
gallantry, and injustice to the good,
pure and highly educated ladies of this
dear old loyal State. | am solid in my
conviction thf the ladies of Vermont,
as well as any other State, have just
as good right to smoke, chew, get
drunk, gamble, fight, use profane Ian
guage, or vote, as the men. and why
not?
What has sex or gender to do with
human department, earthly rights, and
privileges? It's to be hoped and ex-
pected that the fair sex will lift the
degenerate part of the masculine
gender up to their realm of moral purity
and not allow the men to pull them
down. The giving them their rights of
citizenship, which is being done by
other highly civilized States is simply
justice.
can see clearly the benefit and i'm
provement that is coming to Illinois by
her wise act in giving our women equal
rights in suffrage. The dear girls need
something to think about besides per-
sonal adornment and hunting for hus-
bands. | sincerely hope the voters of
Vermont will soon find men of wisdom,
with ideas consistent and just, non
pachydermatons to represent them in
the Senate. Ladies of Vermont, do not
be discouraged; fools are dieing every
day. S. D. Haskell.

factory in the world, the Later being

agriculture
