they gave during their two days better

Massachusetts recently, their visit most
certainly was not in vain. We Judge
that the party must have made a good
impression because, for instance, here is
the Pittsfeld correspondent of the Spring
field Republican sizing them up in the
following manner; "If the men who Wis
tied Pittsfeld from Vermont are a sam
pie of Vermont business men, just keep
your eye on Vermont" Sure, keep your
eye on Vermont. Vermont is not max
ing great and tremendous strides for
ward, but Vermont is most certainly
forging ahead. There are business men
like the Brattleboro men in every one Of
the larger communities Of the state, and
they are alive TO the conditions through.

they are not above learning more il the
opportunity comes their way TO learn
more Incidentally. we are glad that
the Brattleboro men gave such a good
account Of Vermont.

The president Of the United States
ought to know that it is not smart
trick to skip off and wander alone through
the streets Of Washington. That sort OF
performance would have read well in the
DAYS Of Washington and perhaps down
lust before Lincoln's time, but not now
not in the present perturbed state OF IN
ternational affairs and when liberty and
license is granted to people Of warped
brains. President Wilson ought to be
willing to forego some Of the privileges
of the ordinary citizen as long as he
holds his present high office.

Parades as Persuaders.

The suffrage parade held in Boston or
Saturday, which demonstration, by the
by, was doubtless the most beautiful oil
its kind ever seen in this city, is believed
to have exerted very potent influence in
the campaign Of "Votes for Women
The appeal made by petitioners who
come on foot is likely to be much more
fetching than If its bearers were to
come by any other means of travel.
Walking is the primal, elemental means
OF getting anywhere. 1t is the poor
mans method of moving about. Paraders
IN carriages or automobiles look too well
conditioned to be needing anything. Their
pleas lack the sympathetic touch. On
foot all men, and women, too, are equal
and on level. They are in position
to ask for all their rights. Perhaps in
no other way could the women of New
England have more forcibly and beanti-
fully emphasized their need and their
desire for the ballot. Their parade was
not hearsay evidence regarding their de-
sire to vote. 1t was a splendid, ire
mendous, concrete demonstration that
they mean to win the right to vote, if
not this year, then next year, or the
next. But vote they some time viii in
as they already do in II
Of our states and in several other coun-
tries OF the world Such parade as
that held Saturday presages that fact.

Urge Use of Granite in Public Buildings

Elsewhere in this issue of our journal
is an exchange of letters with New
Hampshire granite cutting firm about
the use of granite for public buildings
The letters are self-explanatory and
this comment Is an invitation to each
branch and district of our association
to take action to suitably notify their
respective representatives of the Nation
al House of Representatives and U. S.
senators to not only use their inilu-
enee with the treasury department, but
in voting on bills for public build
ings, to see to ii that arrangements are
made for the greater use OF cut gram
lite in the construction of public build
ings
Under the guise of economy, Congress
usually cuts down appropriations for
public buildings much below the neces-
stiles of the respective localities, then,
when the supervising architect performs
his part, the plans and specifications
need to conform TO the appropriation.
The original plans for the Barre, VT,
postoffice, for instance, called for other
material than granite, but the citizens
protested so strongly that a change was
made and granite used. The postofiice
at Quincy, Mass, although having
granite basement, is limestone build
ing.
Employers and workmen in other
trades invariably work hand in hand
for the promotion of their trade interests.
but il is seldom our association gets any
assistance in that direction from granite
cutting firms. Now, however, that the
subject has been raised by a granite
cutting firm, and which is a compound
part OF the national association OF gran
lie industries, and as that association

The British grumble over the war loar
secured in the United States is perhaps
well shown by the following from ths
London Observer Of October 3, the paper
just having come to hand: Lord Reading
is satisfied with the result of the Amer.
Jean loan negotiations. 1t is as well that
somebody should feel satisfied The Brit
ish taxpayer will not. The British finan-
cial person, be he broker, banker or what
not, has had something like blow to

Great Britain is hard hit when she has
to give a premium for money. because
she herself heretofore has been the center

this desire, for between the British fleet
and the Prussian army these small ma
