MUCH WANTED MAN,

Alta recent gathering of the clans
Of Dartmouth college our own Presi-
dent Thomas of Middlebury college
was seriously mentioned as suitable
candidate for president of the New
Hampshire institution, The undeni-
able and emphatic success which he
has made at Mddlebury had 30 made
known his abilities that some Of the
trustees of Old Dartmouth were looking
longingly in his direction,
And now here is the CaIedonan, in
It's discussion Of the United States
Senatorship, as the outlook appeared
at the recent Republican convention,
saying that various and sundry parties
there present suggested that 'if a
change is to be made, President Thomas
of Middlebury should be selected, "
All well and good, DR., Thomas
could I'll either of the above mentioned
positions with credit TO the cause and
honor to himself But he is needed
where he is and should be allowed to
continue the magnificent work he is
doing there for Vermont and the edu'
cational world. When the history Of
the present generation of Vermonters
comes to be finally written up few men
will be found to stand higher than

TEN CENT PIECES.
Burlington Clipper

There is an Addison county man who
has accumulated quite competency by
saving all the 10-cent pieces that came
into his possession. For thirty years he
has not spent a 10-cent piece. These
little pieces of money have been care
fully saved and deposited in savings ac-
counts at interest.
This simply illustrates what can be
done by system of saving and hold
ing to the system. The little lO-cent
pieces were not missed and in no way
did they deprive the owner of any
necessity.
A few years ago this man bought an
automobile from his savings of l0-cent
pieces and now could buy another good
car and have enough left to provide for
adequate future needs.
Just think, all this has been done on
10-cent pieces. Such a record is a
startling example of the old adage-
Save the pennies and the dollars will
take care of themselves.

CARELESS GUN HANDLERS,
swanton Courier

An exchange says, ITO be found
in possession Of a fire arm in New
York State except by permission
which it Is hard to secure, means
the inhiction Of a heavy penalty y
and the contemporary suggests that II
wouldn't be a bad idea for Vermont to
sort Of follow suit.
There is no doubt but dealers
are sometimes a bit careless in the
way they pass around firearms,
aad no doubt the law could be made
little more strenuous with good
results. Just the same, if Green
Mountain Boy couldn't take down
his pop-gun and go anywhere he
wanted to with il, without taking an
excuse to teacher, we're afraid
he'd think it were time to start
for the Happy Hunting Ground, by
gum.

NOT MCFARLAND.
Rutland News.

One of the correspondents of the
New York Sun covering the Chicago
conventions, wrote under date Of
Sunday: "A strong resentment
against Col. Roosevelt and George
W. Perkins was expressed by a few
of the progressively delegates. One
from Vermont - walked back and
forth through the lobby of the Congress
saying both to himself and then to the
world: "Sold out! Sold out! Vermont
was sold out. His particular crouch
was against T. r. and Perkins. But
there were exceptions. The pro-Hughes
sentiment predominated among the
Moosers who remained over for the
Sabbath" There might be possibii
ties here for a guessing contest as to
what Vermonter the Sun has thus made
famous.

VERMONT'S LARGE NO.LICENSE
VOTE.
Rutland News,

hAAlANh A'Ne'
The official returns, just published,
of the March election in the various
Vermont towns on the question OF
license and no.license show that the
popular majority against license is the
largest ever recorded in the State. The
total vote was 1907 for license and
29, 009 against it, a majority Of 10, 1872.
1t had been expected by some OBJ
servers that there would be marked
increase in the total license vote by
reason of the overwhelming majority
against Statewide prohibition. But it
seems that Vermont voters are dis
eliminating. While they were un'
willing to have State prohibition, they
were unwilling in their various towns,
under local option, to vote for license.
Every county except Bennington
gave a majority against license, some
of them running four or five to one.
The closest counties were: Bennlng-
ton, for license 1902, against license
1898; Chittenden, for 1881, against
1893; Rutland, for 95l5, against 1924.
There were % towns and cities that
voted in favor of license, one more than
in 1912, and two more than in 1914 and
1915, but less than in any other year
since local option has prevailed. In five
of the % towns no license was issued.
OF the II towns in which licenses
were issued, IL had them in 1915, while
five towns voted for license which were
dry the proceeding year Two towns
which had saloons in 1915 voted no
license this year.
While these statistics are somewhat
belated, they are the first official re-
ports given of the vote as cast in
March.

JOHN G. SAKE.
Brattleboro Reformer.

Strange, isn't it, this difference in
communities? If John G. SAKE had
become national figure as a resident
of Brattleboro his memory would be
honored land renowned here, and the
children would know about him today
as they do about Larkin G. Mead and
the story of the Snow Angel. The
Burlington News arraigns the consti-
tuency which surrounds it when it
says; ave of Burlington make moth
ing whatever of the famous literary
people who once lived here. John g..
SAKE was resident Of Burlington
when he made his literary reputation.
We lack the energy to erect tablet
to mark his home here-and we ven
ture the prediction that not one Bur-
lingtonian out of a hundred knows
today what house it was that the SAKE
family occupied. " Shame on Burling-
ton! 1t is the sweet Auburn of Yer
mont where wealth accumulates and

Henry Bolack Granger, of Wnooski,
was drowned at Malletts Bay between
3 and O'Clock Sunday morning,
In company with his nephew, Ubal
Granger, he left on a fishing trip at
the bay, They reached distance
Of 25 or 80 feet from shore when
Henry, who was sitting in the end, is
said to have begun to rock the boat,
which overturned. Ubal guined his
feet, but his uncle did not rise. Neither
could swim, Ubal said he tried to
reach his uncle but he was taken with a
cramp in his leg, became frightened,
and waded to shore for assistance He
found some other boys in a camp near
by and in less than an hour later the
body was taken ashore. Granger, who
was unmarried, was "a years old,

ATTEMPT TO ROB PosToFFlCE

An unsuccessful attempt was made
to rob the Williamstown postoilce early
Sunday morning, but the burglars got
nothing for their efforts except three
dollars of Postmaster George b, VIII
bur's private account, which was left in
the open cash drawer, That the booty
was not larger was due to the fact
that the safe, on being blown, tipped
upon its face against the partially
open door so that there was barely room
for insertion Of mans arm in little
way, and the safe could not be lifted
back to It's position without the com
bined aid of four men. So It is assumed
that the robber gang was composed of
less than a quartet, probably TWO men,

LOADING RECORDS SMASHED ON
G. 4 D.

Coal shipping records of the c. &
o. railroad company have been smash
ed during the present month, the fig
ures for March topping all previous
records, according to official informa-
ton issued today from the superin-
tendents office. The best previous
record was made during January, 1916
when a tonnage of 2,451.73O was re-
corded as carried over the road. 1t
is said that the figures for March will
exceed the January record for several
hundred tons. Exact figures were not
available today, but the official as
sured that the record would be in ev-
idence when the report is issued.
Despite the fact that thousands Of
loaded coal cars are at present tied
up at ocean ports along the Atlantic
seaboard, due to the fact that bottoms
for sea shipping are lacking, the rail
road company procured enough cars
to carry a record breaking amount OF
tonnage during the month.

VINO GETS THE MONEY!

producer nor the packer is profiting
greatly, according TO testimony given
yesterday by representatives of the
respective interests at the House Ju-

the Borland resolution for a federal
investigation of the packing indus
try.
Answering declarations Of produc-
ers that packers are reaping enor-
nous profits, Arthur Meeker, vice
president OF Armour & Company, de-
clared last week his firm lost approx
imately 100000 ON theil total sales
in the United States. His statement
interrupted that of John Landergrin
a big cattle raiser Of Amarillo. Tex
who insisted that in spite of large
sales he had only broken even" in

TATTERED AND TORN WITH
SCANT RATION Is AMERICAN
FORCE.

Columbus. ~ NJ, April 6.--Tales OF
the hardships OF the american sol
diers who are pursuing Villa over the
desert and through the mountains of
Chihuahua were brought here by ar
rivals with a truck train under Col.
George A. Dodds command.
Far from being the smart cavalry
men who three weeks ago crossed into
Mexico. the soldiers, their shoes ruin
ed by the sharp stones of the noun
tain, and their uniforms torn by
brush, are wearing sandals made OF
cowhide and such clothing as can be
obtained from natives, they declared
1t also was asserted that Colonel
Dodd's command had lost so many
horses in the relentless pursuit of the
bandit chief that fully half the men
were without mounts.
Substantiating some of these stories

questing that the extra kits, contain
ing clothes of the soldiers of the Sew
euth and Tenth Cavalry regiments

front, be rushed forward to them at
once.

YANKEES EXPECTED TO SHOW
WONDERFUL IMPROVEMENT
THIS YEAR.

New York, April 6.--Indications are
that the New York Americans yam
kees) will be a very much improved
team this season. With Lee Magee
and Fritz Maisel, both in the Outfield
positions, the indications are for Il
big improvement in the outer defenses
Both of these men are fast-fast be-
yond the ordinary. Their speed will
help greatly in rsking the territory
for fly balls and also in ranging the
outskirts to head off ground balls and
keep the .batters to the lowest min
imum of bases obtained from hits.
One of the most effective points Of
play of the Red SOx outfield lies in
Speakers speed and agility in back
ing up the other outfielders and head
ing off ground balls which have gone
past or through them. The Yankees
have had few outfielders who were
adept at this. A hit past one of them
generally meant triple or a home
run. Maisel is swift enough to rem
edy this defect and Magee is another
fast stopper. High and Gilhoonley are
speedy runners and there is material
at hand for decided improvement in
intercepting ground hits before they
yield triples or four-baggers.

GAVIRA INSISTS VILLA HAS BUL.
LET WOUND IN LEG.

I'll Paso, Texas, April 6.-The story
that Francisco Villa is wounded and
that his capture is imminent was as
serted again last night by General Ga
vira, the Carranza commander al
JuareZ
General Gavira made public a tele-
gram, which he said he had received
from General Bertani at Mcdara. stat
ing specifically that the bandit had
been shot and was in hiding some
where between Bachineya and Stat
evo"
The message is coniirmatory of re-
ports from American headquarters
that villa was located heading toward
Satevo. While the story that he is
wounded is still accepted here with
considerable reserve II is pointed out
that several days have elapsed since
the fugitive was reported in the
neighborhood of Satevo, presumably
on his way to Parral, and that moth
ing has been heard since Of his move
ments. If villa was in full posses
sion of his health and travelling at his
usual speed or forty or more miles a
day, he should have reached and pass
cd Parrall by this time, a fact which
could hardly escape being reported.

SAILORS MUST STAY on SHIPS.

Washington, April 6.-Admiral Ben
son of the Naval Advisory Board, has
recommended to the House Commit
tee on Naval Affairs that legislation
be enacted prohibiting bluejackets
from participating in fighting ashore,
as at Vera Cruz and Hayti
The United States Marines alone
should take care of all land opera
tons in the admiral's opinion, for the
officers and men of the marine corps
have been well trained for the duty
and thoroughly understand how to
take care of themselves under fire.
The legislation, if enacted, will not
prevent sailors from participating in
land operations at times of extreme
necessity.
