Italy,s Choice.

Within the week Italy win be either in
the war or in the discard. The action
of the Italian government has left nc
middle course open to il. The demand
Italy has made ON Austria may have
been exaggerated by dispatches, and
statesmen frequently ask for far more
than they expect to obtain That is one
OF their ways of leaving room for a
working compromise Making all allow

Italy is letting the blade peep from the
scabbard. drawing the sword very slow

must fight or forever hold its peace
which, under the circumstances, will be

DOINGS OF THE
LEGISLATURE
Continued from first pagc)

tional the junior high school system and
vocational training with the towns and
not compulsory, as did the commission
bill.
The only ripple caused during the art
ernoon sitting came when Mr.. McClary
followed up his stubborn opposition to II
PIT, relating TO the appraisal of bank
stock, by demanding the yeas and nays
The bill was passed by vote of 100 70
%. Mr., MeClary said he considered the
bill bad legislation. IL meant the APP
pointment OF another commissioners and
considerable unnecessary expense and
that the bill conflicts with state and ma
tional bank laws. He said only IL towns
would benefit by the bill. This statement
was contradicted by Mr.. Wilson of Chel-
sea, and there ensued slight argument
between the two. The bill does not
change the taxation, but allows apprais-
ais of bank stock to be made in uniform
manner, according to its supporters.
-Four committee bills found their way
from the revisers' office to the clerks
desk during the afternoon and were or
dered to lie and be printed.
The Senate, acting upon an adverse re-
port, refused third reading to 5. l24,
an act to assist the youth Of Vermont
to secure liberal education. The bill
was opposed by President Thomas OF
Middlebury and others at hearing Mon
day night. 1t appropriated $4,000.
The Senate has refused to recede from
its proposals Of amendments to II. 237,
relating to school endowment forests and
III. 404, relating to state fair appropria
ton and has appointed committees OF
