More Courts-More Expense.
randolph Herald and NewsO


Now it's proposition to establish dis
trict courts in each county. We were
told that by creating the encouragement
ship the state would save money. Instead,
the cost has enormously increased. We
We're told that with two higher courts
there would be a real saving because the
Judges We're overburdened and many
chancery references had to be made. The
prediction has not been justified. We were
told that numerous municipal courts would
shorten the terms of county court and re-
duce expensive litigation. And all the
while the cost of law administration has
grown until it is, next to schools, the
largest single item in the state budget. So
Ethere is reason for skepticism that the es-
Enlistment of any more courts, with sal
aried judges and officials, will cut the ex-
Ipense. How would it work, just for a
change, to reduce or abolish some of the
courts we now have?

Seeing Things.
burlington Free Press. J

The Morrisville Messenger prints the
following suggestive paragraph:
Judging from what we heard members
on the train talking, when returning from
the Vermont press meeting at Montpelier
Friday night, it Is beginning to dawn upon
them that some smart corporation lawyers
rugged up the whole court fight for selfish
purposes. 1t was d mighty slick little
piece of political work, whoever engineered

The people of Vermont are rapidly be
coming alive to the fact that a few attor-
neys for foreign interests have been trying
to shape things generally IN this state to
their own ends, and that they have tried
to use the bar association as well as the
state government. That explains many re
cent developments, which the public now
understands better than ever before.

Capital and Labor.
(BOston Journal.1

1t seems to be fairly well demon
strated that John ID. Rockefeller, jr.,
has an open mind on the subject of
capitals attitude toward labor. He
has demonstrated that within the
week, and his utterances are, appar-
emily, those of a man who, realizing
that his present and potential respon-
sibilities are tremendous, is anxious to
do his duty by his fellow men.
His testimony before the federal
Commission on Industrial Relations
was not that of one who, having made
up his mind that he is right, is will
ing to discuss important problems only
from his standpoint. He knows, of
course. that, just as the interests of 4
railroad and its patrons cannot be di-
vided. so the relations between CAPT
tai and labor are not permanently sep
arabic. "Mother' Jones, the we'll
known agitatOr. whose methods of cru
| SADIE are never conservative, frankly
admits that she was mistaken in young
Mr.. Rockefeller. Perhaps the public
as well as Mr.. Rockefeller has mis-
| Judged "Mother' Jones.
| There was never Il time in the his
| tory Of the country when there was q
greater necessity for intelligently har
moniouS relations between capital anG
labor. Neither side is infallibIe. Boil
often make great and irreparable mis-
takes. The most responsible and sue
cessful labor unions in the country are
those which substitute carefully guard
ed arbitration agreements for strike
and periodical unemployment. On thu
other hand capital is becoming NOR,
and more impressed with the fact that
in its relations with labor, wholesom,
Ipeace, with mutual concessions for mu
tual profit, is better than armed true,
and distrust.

WHAT TO COOK.
Canned Salmon Makes Good and
Tasty Dishes.

Tasty Dishes.
For the emergency shelf, or fo1
those who live in the suburbs OF
towns where there is no fish mar
ket, canned fish is a blessing. Many
good, tasty dishes can be prepared
from it.
The housekeeper and cook must
be sure the fish is used as soon as
opened. If part of a can is left
over, it should be put in a porcelain
or earthenware dish, cover with
same and use in a day or two.
One should always bear in mind
that good canned salmon has great
food value, it being very rich in oil.
Many do not realize its value.
