The Barre daily times. (Barre, Vt.) 1897-1959, 1916-03-04

A member of the granite cutters unioi
at Quincy, Mass, takes the Boston news
papers to task for their ignorance of tn
granite industry which causes them L
confuse the qusrrying and cutting end.
of the business when it comes to dis
cusson of the labor situation. For in
stance, one Boston newspaper presented
a news story telling of the suspension OF
the granite cutting industry in Quincy
and accompanied it with a Photographic
reproduction of quarry, thus giving
rise to the inference that the Quincy
quarries were shut down as well as the
manufacturing plants, when, as matter
of fact, the Quincy quarry workers and
owners settled their difference before the
expiration of the old agreement and, con
sequently, with no break in the eontin-
uity of the operations. The position of
the protestant is well taken inasmuch as
the quarrying and the manufacturing OF
granite are essentially separated indus
tries and, as such, have distinct labor
agreements Located, as they are, within
an hours car ride of the quarries and
cutting plants, the editors of the Boston
newspaper ought to show greater ia
with the industry which consti-
tutes such an important factor in the
busy life of one of Boston's chief out
lying cities.

CURRENT COMMENT
The Quincy Situation.

The effects of the granite strike, if IL
is prolonged, will be far-reaching. Al
though the workmen viii be the chief
sufferers, the employers also viii feel
it and so win landlords, grocers and
many others who have no voice in the
matter. 1t seems indeed strange that the
relatively unimportant question involved
could not have been settled in justice TO
all concerned without resorting to a
strike. 1t is a time for the exercise Of
reason and the get-together spirit and
the sooner the rank and file on both
sides grasp this fact the better. A labor
difficulty is might poor advertisement
for any city.-Quiney, Mass, Patriot.

restraint, particularly from that re
straint exercised more or less troubled,
J by the imperious state of New York
, On July 2 of the same year, representa-
tives of the people of the new domain
! adopted a set of rules, so to speak, some
times called constitution, by which the
independent little republic should be gov
erned. There was considerable tinkering
of that constitution thereafter, but the
document went into effect without ratifi.
cation of the people of the republic, the
representatives in convention assembled
having, apparently, been given plenary
! powers along that line. The so-called set
of rules was again revised in 1886, as
the needs of the, republic became i'm.
| pressed upon the inhabitants. Again it
was revamped to certain extent in
1922 and it was finally adopted on July
4, 1898.
In the meantime events OF somewhat
broader scope were going on. They had
to do with the relation of the little re-
public with the national organization.
Petitions had gone from Vermont TO Con-
gress for admission into the union of
states; but the petitions had been thrust
aside because of the influence of the state
OF New York largely. But Vermont per-
sisted. Eventually New York reluctant:
ly removed her objection but not with
out a consideration. A dozen years after
Vermont had declared her independence,
during which years there had been con
slant trouble with New York, the legis-
lature Of the latter state, perhaps de-
spairing OF the incorrigible neighbor, con-
scented to formal recognition OF Vermont,
the act passing on July Is, 1850, A year
later New York gave formal assent to
the entry of Vermont into the union,
giving up claimed jurisdiction by the
of $4,000 in the coin of the
realm. The way was thus cleared for
tllt uiiik VI RhApltipht LhC
entry into union with her neighbors. On
Feb. IS, 1901, Congress passed an act to
admit Vermont into the union, the same
to take effect March 4, 1871. The act
was passed without debate and without
ascension.
Thus it came about that Vermont be-
anne the first state to be admitted to
the union after the original Thirteen
Colonies. That great event was just l25 |
years ago to-day. For. century and a
quarter Vermont has fully justified the
wisdom of the act which admitted her to ,
he sharing of the rights, privileges and Z
Iuties which the other 10 originally as. !
umed. Vermont has stood, during those
rs years, as a bulwark for the sturdy ,
pirit of democratic government, founded a
N the theory OF freedom and unity.
7ermont at all times has contributed her Q
ull share to the upbuilding of the pres :
mt great nation; and Vermont, proud of q
er birthright and conscious of a great S
estiny, will continue to do her full share n
oward the further greatness of united :
ountry.

I25 YEARS A STATE.

For a period of IA years during her
early history, Vermont maintained an
independent existence, independent not
so much from choice as from compul-
sion on the part of her neighbors. In
l777 Jan. Is, to be exact Vermont, hav-
ing taken inspiration from the union of
states, declared her independence of all

the Others had there been any concerted
action to bring the registration to its
maximum. The total registration has
again gone beyond the 1000 mark by a
comfortable margin and is very nearly
at the high water mark of the citys en-
rollment OF voters. Inasmuch as this
gain was made without much effort in
individual campaigning for voters, it in
dicates marked growth in the city.

We hear much nowadays of conserving

natural resources. Let US educate our

these but also those delicate, frail little
organisms upon whom the future of our
nation depends.

blooms of white carnations.
Refreshments were served after the
New Year had been ushered in, dane

sUB-DIsTRICT SPECIAL ELEC-
TON CARRIED AT D'FUNIAK,
AND LARGE STRUCTURE WILL
SHORTLY Be BUILT.
SPECIAL 10 THE JOURNAL.


DeFuniak, Dec. 31.-The special
sub-district bond election was carried
here today, by the majority of six
votes, the count tonight showing SO
for and 40 against, the authority to
issue bonds in the sum of $4,000.
The election, it was said, would
have been unanimous had there not
have been local issue injected into
the campaign. AS it was, enthusiasm
is very warm tonight over the result.
AS side issue, it might be stated
that concrete sidewalks are being vol
unfairly built all over the city, this
work having taken quite squirt very
recently when the good road building,
which has been inaugurated here, was
shown to have been of such a gubstan-
tial nature. Good hard thirty-foot
clayed streets are being built, pos
sibly over eight miles, and it Is the
belief of those who have been fol-
lowing this movement that it will not
be long before vitrifed brick paving
will follow the excellent clayed and
packed roads now being built IN De-
Funiak.
Mayor Flournoy was one of the
most active and enthusiastic support
ers of the sub-district bond election
for $4,000, and stated tonight that
the building which it is proposed to
erect with this money win be credit
to any community.
