Illegal fishermen in Vermont, some
of them at least, are learning that it
doesn't pay to violate the fish and game
laws. Early this week q piscatorially
inclined resident of North Adams, who
iourneyed into the town of Stamford
without first taking out a license and
who operated on a trout stream without
regard to the six-inch law, had his bank
account shrunk to the amount of $63.l5
Up in Salisbury two men who were not
satisfied to catch their trout according
to law are out on bail endeavoring to
raise $108.0S, the penalty for using q
net. 1t is difficult to understand the
mental deductions of a fisherman who
will attempt to beat the state out OF
the price of a 50-eent license and il
doing so take the chances of being
caught and fined $25 to $50.

Discredi BILE.
(Rutland Herald.)

It is very evident that the campaign
for and against the Perry referendum
law, which carries in effect the prin-
ciple of statewide prohibition, will be
characterized by more than the usual
amount of attempted character as
sassination on the part of the anti
saloon forces, with headquarters IN
Westerville, Ohio.
Already a series of meetings is in
prospect, in which hired performers
are expected to draw firm and blac k
dividing line between the sheep who
believe in the discredited system Of
statewide prohibition and the goats
who believe in and advocate the pres
emit local option law.
Some of the publicity inspired by
these sanity propagandists is already
in evidence, and appearing, strangely
enough, III the columns of certain state
papers "Saloons local option indus
tries, - mo Christian gentleman could
be connected with such, etc, are in
dications of the direction of the at
tack.
This is in itself confession of the
weakness of the Anti-Saloon league s
| position No Just cause needs the aid
of vilifcation and attempted character
destruction If the merits of the Perry
act are not sufficient in themselves &c
Justify the substitution of that untrice
/ and chimerical measure for the loca
option law, then the obvious recourse
must come through an attempt to make
4 it an issue of prejudice and intimida
ton.
This evidently is exactly what thc
Perryites have in mind, and their pro
posai to label every adherent of the
/ local OPTION law with an offensive cpl
tibet and slanderous inference indicates
very clearly the sort of campaign they
, have in mind
Many of the members of the Yer

FRIDAY, AUGUST 6, 1915.
B. s NJ. REORGANIZATION.

Directors of the Boston & Maine rail
road in conference with representatives
Of the leased lines have agreed upon al
bill for submission to the New Hamp-
shire legislature which aims for reor-
ganization and legalization in that
state of a merging of the railroad Isl
leased lines through an issue of stock
in lieu of the existing rental system.
This bill, built along lines similar to-
the reorganization legislation passed by
the legislatures of Massachusetts and
Maine, has been submitted to Gov.
Roland II. Spaulding of New Hamp-
shire, and if his attitude is favorable
the committee will make a formal re-
quest to him to call a special session
of the New Hampshire legislature 70
enact the bill into law --.
Ia the bill the committee has brought
together all interests whose attitudes
widely varied when the committee first
convened. 1t was with great difficulty
that the representatives of the Concord
& Montreal line were whipped into line,
and it is understood that some conces-
sions and eeBsiderable lressAres were
| necessary to accomplish it.
The wishes of the road S directors,
the federal trustees and the various in
terests, Governor Spaulding, leaders of
| the New Hampshire legislature and the
| public service commission were all con
sidered and granted so far as consist
! ent, with the result that the bill is
really an an-around compromise.
UnolhciaIly it is understood that Gov.
ernor spaulding is in sympathy with
the proposed legislation and that he
win readily grant the committee s APP
peal for a special legislative session
which will be made the first of next
week, probably.
The bin calls upon the Boston s
Maine to retire its. floating indebted
ness and to raise capital for rcconstruc
ton and equipment, these requirements
to be fulfilled before consolidation i.
effective. This means that the roat
will have to have nearly $4,000, 900
which sum it is expected can be raised
1t is considered unlikely that the road
even under the most favorable condi
tions, can get into position to pa,
dividends for at least five years. Mem
bers of the leased lines committee be
! ieve, however, that with the remova
of the annual rental burden the roa,
will be able to rehabilitate itself with
in that time.
Though the committee had planne
to make public the text Of the bill we,
terday, lie decided that courtesy t
Governor Spaulding required that tn
privilege of making it public be LET
with him.
The bill was submitted to the Bos
ton & Maine directors who voted thei
approval of the bill, and voted to joi
with the committee in an applicatio
to Governor Spaulding to call speci;
session of t3le New Hampshire legisl;
ture for its consideration.
The bill is permissive and gives til
interested parties the right to enter n
gotiations with a fair prospect of su
cess.
1t will not be necessary for ever
leased line to enter the agreement,
is said. Neither is it necessary, I'll
committee says, for Vermont or Ne
York to pass similar legislation, b
cause of the small amount of tracks,
in Vermont and the liberal laws
