One of the former governors of Yer.
mont. who will not disclose his identity
at this time, has caused the announce
ment to be made that he will become
responsible for whatever sum is neces-
sary to expend in behalf of the Yer
! mont troops now in the field, leaving it
| for the legislature to recoup him when
that body meets in it's regular sessions
next January. In other words, this
former executive proposes to save the
state taxpayers the sum of $40, 900 or
whatever amount would be involved by
making an extra session of the legis-
lature unnecessary.

Subway Development.

The first "sUbways" were cuts for
pipes and wires, large enough for a
man to walk in, and supplied with in
spection openings. These were in.
stalled in Paris by Napoleon III. The
Chicago street traffic subways were

the first "subways'' were those of the

By the beginning Of the seventeenth
century the use of carriages and
coaches had become so prevalent in
England that in 1901 the attention Of
parliament was drawn to the subject
and a bill ito restrain the. excessive
use of coaches" was introduced, which.
however, was rejected on it's second
reading. In the early part of the cen
fury it was estimated that there were
5000 in London and it's vicinity

The persevering landscape painter
knew that he had an observer looking
over his shoulder at the easel. He
knew from the rustic of skirts that the
observer was woman; yet he worked
steadily on. Presently the observer
spoke. "a charming landscape" she
said. "Ah, you fatter me-" said the
artist modestly. Compared with the
original landscape it is very poor
stuff Il meant the original" said
the observer.

John w. Titcomb. state fish and
game commissioner, has called the
attention of anglers and hunters to the
fact that they must carry their
licenses The six inch law on trout,
the 1O-inch law on black bass and the
12-inch on salmon and lake trout is for
the purpose of allowing these fish to
reach maturity before being caught.
The commissioner asks that before
removing short fish from the hook
ones hand should be wet as it will
prevent the removal of the mucous
coating on the body of the fish and
thus prevent the disease known as
fungus" which might prove fatal.

Indications are that the Allies are
making some progress against the
Germans now. The onslaught of the
British in the Peronne section is prob
ably the greatest military movement
of all ages and the concerted action of
the British and French in this region
in the past week has netted the Allies
something of real value in territory.
The Russians also continue their drive
and many believe the crucial stage of
the conflict has been reached-but the
end of the war is not yet by any
means.

New York City and Brooklyn are
suffering from an infantile paralysis
epidemic. Vermont knows how to
sympathize with these places for it has
a large number of crippled children
whose ability to perform life's work
normally will forever be denied them.
That so awful disease should battle
science for so long time seems
strange in these days. God speed the
day when we shall know what causes
the trouble and how to treat it.

Eectric linhf-

The basic discovery Of the posi-
bility Of electric light was made by
Sir Humphrey Dayy in 1910, but for
the next so years the developments
were solely scientific and no practical
use was made of them. In 1862, how
ever, an arc light was installed in a
lighthouse at Dungeness, and this is
generally believed to be the first cleo
trio lamp in regular service

Vermont has fine crop of hay. The
question is, can we harvest it?

There appears to be every indication
of a warm senatorial canvass in Orleans
county this summer. There are four
candidates and all have friends who are
determined to make their man the
winner.

The meeting of the Greater Vermont
association at Montpelier Wednesday Of
next week promises to be one of the big
events in Vermont. Large delegations
from all parts of the state are plan
ming to attend and the inspiration they
are sure to get from the list of promin-
eut speakers like Col George Harvey,
T. n. Vail, Gov. Mccall of Massachu-
sets, and others will help to start the
organizations of the state doing some
team work. Much is promised for the
conference conducted by Vermonter
now famous as a man capable of
speeding up boards of trade all over
the country, Lucius E. Wilson.

From all reports, the Vermont boys
now at Eagle Pass, Texas, ready to do
their part when called upon, have so
far conducted themselves as becomes
Vermont soldiers. They responded
quickly, they entrained without hitch.
they bore the journey without com
plant, and are now ready. Just what
part their commander, Col, Ira L..
Reeves played in Vermont's good
showing will not be known but his
knowledge Of actual soldering condi-
tions, his comm anding personality and
his decisiveness of action all tended to
place Vermont troops at the front
where they always have been found and
still belong.

School People Should Understand.

Teachers in the rural schools should
understand, if they do not, that only
by securing certificates of the new
issue, either original or by exchanging
their old certificates for such, can
towns employing them be reimbursed
by the state. Town school directors
should also understand this, and, to-
gether with the district superinten-
dent, should help to convey the infor-
nation to the teacher. so that there
may not be complications and disap.
pointments later on.-Randolph Herald

AT THE LYRIC.

Two exceptionally strong produc-
tons will be the offerings at the Lyric
theatre this week. For Saturday and
Sunday nights Marie Doro, said to be
the most beautiful stage acress extant,
will appear in Diplomacy" a thrilling
plot connected with the theft of war
plans, around which reels with keli-
descopic swiftness brilliant line of
tragic situations and nerve-tension
episodes. Miss Doro is we'll and ably
supported by such popular stars as
Elliott Dexter as Julian, and Edith
Walker as the Comptesse Zicka. The
story is page. from the life of a men,
Der of the Foreign Legion" of the
British diplomatic corps, and If it is
half as fascinating as the book, 1t will
be we'll worth seeing.
In addition there will be the usual
scream of Bray cartons, that has fairly
captivated the public.
For Wednesday and Thursday nights
! Fannie Ward will be with us again in
l"For the Defense" Miss Wards last
appearance on the screen here was in
the successful production Of "Tennes.
sees Partner" in which she made q
decided hit. Both the productions al
the Lyric this week are high class and
we'll worth seeing.

tensely exciting and dramatic, with
scenes laid in New York and Alaska
The World Film line of photoplays
promise to be rare treat to the movie
patrons of this place. Mr.. Bartell has
secured them at heavy cost and he

Al Riste was in town from his Simil-
kameen valley ranch, or the ranch that
he recently owned in the Similkameen
VALLEY. Mr.. Riste is a mere shadow of
his former self. He has been in poor
health for some time, and of late has
been compelled to do more wark than
he is in condition to stand up under.
What he needs is a complete rest, and
Inow that he has sold out his place he
imay permit himself that luxury. 1t is
probable that he will decide to make
, his home in Oroville.

any county office to which he might be

making thorough canvass and max

prove to be a very formidable candidate
lfor the office to which he aspires.
County Engineer Horace E. Smith,
of Okanogan, was in town Tuesday in
the interest of his candidacy for the
office of county engineer Mr.. Smith is
one of the most competent engineers
that has ever held the office in this
|county, and his administration has
been marked by an economy never ex-
ercised by his predecessors, taking the
records as a criterion. What he has
done in that office is an earnest Of
what he will do after his election. The
office will be kept up to the highest
standard of efficiency and conducted
Iupon a strictly economical basis.

STARTING development WORK

Tom Stanton and Joe Mcdonald
have force of men at work on the
49th Parallel mine, located a short
distance north of Oroville. Judging
from the character of the ore that has
been encountered in the 49th Parallel
it would seem that only development
was necessary to make the property a
steady shipper, and a steady shipper
with metal at the present prices means
flatterng profits. To what extent
work is to be carried on is not known.
From the prospects of reward for the
investment and labor it would seem
that the owners would be justified in
continuing operations indefinitely.

NATIONAL FOREST NOTES.

In order to secure more accurate
data. regarding the number of stock
using the Okanogan national forest
ranges, all users of the range will be
required to make application for per-
mits.
This ruling applies to settlers hav-
ing free use of the range for work an
finals and milk cows, as we'll as those
having more than ten head Of work and
milk stock. The settler will still be al
lowed to Craze his usual amount of
stock free, providing he makes appli-
cation to do so, and complies with the
rules in force for the Stock Association
to which the range in his section has
been assigned.
This action has been found necessary
on account of the users of the forest
being organized for cooperative work
along the lines of breeding, sailing
vaccinating for blackleg, and more
economical management of the range.
Application blanks may be secured
from the supervisors office at Okla
hogan, or from district rangers, upon
request, or they may be had at the
meetings of the various stock associa-
tions, the dates of which will be adver-
tised in these columns later.
Stock Of all kinds are in better con.
dition this fall than at any time for
several years.
Practically all lambs and several
bands of sheep have been sold at top
prices; top lambs bringing as high as
$3.50 per head and breeding ewes aver
aging $500 each.
The fall round up of cattle is now
under way, with some sales taking
place in the Loomis and Olema sec.
lions. The prices paid at LOOMS were
$3.50 per cwt., and $3.50 for old COWS
and seconds, stock I. o. b. Tonasket
