TOWNS DEBT GREW
$1,000 DURING
PAST YEAR
Due to Building New House at
Town Farm
BUILDING COST Was $26,37S.67
Voters In Special Town Meeting
Ordered Job Done So Can
Blame Themselves

The town reports are out today and
may be had at the usual places. The
report shows many matters Of interest
to the voters and taxpayers.
The point of chief interest is that
the town has gone into debt $1,000 the
past year and the town now owes
$127 7,2O3.39 when last year 1t was
$120,27O10.
To go with this fact is the plain
truth that the town tax rate will have
to be lifted the present year If this ex.
ira debt is to be paid.
Last year the town tax was 80 cents
on the dollar. This year 1t needs 100
cents according to the auditors.
The increase in debt is due entirely
to the new house on the town farm. 1t
cost including furniture s26,37S.67.
The taxpayers and other voters
should remember. however, that the
work has been done as ordered. A
special town meeting was held to con-
slider the matter and ordered the Sc
lectmen to go ahead and build the
town. farm house from the plans which
the voters in the same meeting se-
lected.
The selectmen did precisely as they
we're ordered and the added debt In
the result Is the increase of debt.

who talked to him patronizingly about

exc ept that he was a man of com

Fess excused himself to take his place
on the platform. and he saw the as
tonished woman get up and leave the

dates Directly Into Hands
Of Voters
TO WIPE OUT C0NsENIION

The fight over prohibition and 9th
er town meeting interests should not
cause the voters to forget that the
issue whether or not Vermont is to
have Primary law is to be decided
by the voters on Tuesday. March 7th.
The question before the voters is
whether or not to accept the provis-
ions of the Primary nominations bill.
passed by the legislature last winter.
with a referendum clause attached.
If the voters are satisfied with the old
system of nominations by convention
they should vote mo-" If they are
not satisfied and would like to try
the system Of selecting nominees by
direct vote they should vote yes"
In spite of all that has been said
and written on the question there are
still a good many people who do not
understand the working of Pri-
mary law although it Is simple and
easily understood. In brief it is as
lOlOWS. tOlcISp WIZ uCoD6 " oup-
port certain candidate for state of
fee, U. S. Senator, member Of Con-
gress, or county official can circulate
a petition asking that the mans name
go on the Primary ballot. 1t takes
500 names to get mans name on
the ballot for governor or other state
Office or for U 8. Senator. For mem
ber Of Congress it takes $50 names
and for county Office 1t takes num-
Der of names equal to two percent Of
the vote cast at the last election.
With the names thus presented by
the voters themselves an election bal.
lot is made up for the Primary elec-
tion which is set for the second Tues
day in September
From the names offered for the vari-
GUS places the voters make their Sc
lection for each place and the man
who gets most votes Is the nominee.
The candidates of each party are in
separate columns and the voter must
confine his marking to the column of
one party or invalidate his ballot
The Primary election is held at the
same place and under practically the
same rules as regular election and
the laws regulating a regular elec-
tion apply to Primary, including pen.
alties for bribery, intimidation, use of
liquor, etc. In addition the Primary
bill also provides penalty for the
voter who solicits bribe or any 9th.
er thing Of value.
It will be seen that in this way
every voter gets chance to vote for
a candidate for every place on the
ticket. Under the caucus and conven-
tion system the fight in the caucus is
almost always over the candidate for
governor or some other one place on
the ticket and the voters get no
chance to express preference as to
the other places. The primary gives
him chance for an emphatic vote,
for or against every man proposed.
With all the candidates on the state,
congressional and county ticket to be
considered the interest in the Primary
is ordinarily much greater than in the
caucus and in this way much more
general expression is secured.
