INCREASING IMPORTS
DECREASING REVENUE

The statistics for the eight months
ended February, 1916, show that for.
eigners sent 10 our market nearly one
million dollars worth Of goods daily
more than came in for the same peri
Oh ended February. 1915, also under
the Democratic tariff law. During the
1916 period we imported 81 ,29l ,000,-
900 worth Of goods. During the 1915
period we imported sl,056, 000, 900
worth of goods, or $685., 100000 less.
During the period ended February
1913, under Republican law, the value
Of our imports was 81 lag, 100000, or
si5,000,000 less than the period just
past. But the world was then at
peace, and the goods that came in un-
der the Republican law produced a
revenue which enabled US TO run the
Government efficiently and give us a
good surplus. We took in customs
revenues Of about 1929 100000 Dur
ing the eight months ended February,
1916, the customs revenues fell to
Sl32,0O0, 900, or SOL 100000 less than
under Republican law although i'm
ports were considerably greater Mr..
Underwood declared that his bill pro-
vided rates Of duty which would create
active competition Of foreign with
American made goods and which
would so encourage importation that
we would have ample revenues. See
how IL worked out We are getting
the goods, but not the revenue. Mr..
theory was all right from
The Democratic viewpoint, and so was
Darius Green's flying machine all
light from the standpoint Of that
Yankee aeronaut, but there is about
he law something reminiscent Of the
and that something is mot
% sweet by half"

Senior Class Play

On F riday evening, the Goth OF
Nav, the Senior Class of Burr and
Burton Seminary will present its an
nual play at the Gymnasium. Taking
into consideration the interests of the
public, together with desire for van
ity, the class has carefully prepared a
delightful, interesting, mirth produc-
ing comedy entitled Aaron Boggs
Freshman"
The episodes in the play take place
IN a small, co-educational college In
the Middle West. The play opens
with the first day Of school. We are
introduced TO the big" men in college.
Mr.. Epenetus p. Boggs bring his son
Aaron, the hero of the play, to college.
Aaron meets Miss Elyzabethe Maud
ella Feeny, the heroine, whom it APP
pears, was his girl back in Splinter
vile. 1t is needless to relate the in
terest of this meeting or the later eff
feet it has on Aaron's educational
career.
The story then develops rapidly.
Lizzie shows Bean Carter's crowd a
thing or two. 'The idea of wanting
to haze my Aaron" Lizzie sends
Bean Carter a telegram presenting
Aaron as the grandson Of Old Stephen
j. Boggs, the multi-millionaire. The
college goes wild and the different fac
tons compete to get Aaron in their
crowd.

ton Of becoming grind. He says he

Petitions for the nomination OF
lieutenant governor have been in EVIL
dence in this section for some weeks
past, circulated by John f. Weeks of
Middlebury and Roger w. Hulburd Of
Hyde Park. They are both good men
and well qualified but in our opinion
Judge Weeks has the edge" as the
saying is, over Hulburd. Judge Weeks
ia at present speaker Of the House of
Representative and has proved very
capable official. He has also given Of
his time and energy as chairman Of
the penal commission for several years
and has always proved conscientious,
painstaking, jealous official. Mr.. Hull
burd has not been in the public eye
quite as much as Mr.. Weeks, being
in the insurance business; has served
the state on commissions and cam
paigned the state at different times
for the Republican party, being very
fine speaker, and if We mistake not,
has served in the lower house at Mont
pelier. As between the two we shall
support Judge Weeks. Addison
county, filed as it is with capable men,
has had very little recognition in state
affairs for several years and it is
"due" now.

Last Thursday night the Junior
Glass II held junior prom at the
Gymnasium. The members of the
class had labored very hard TO make
the affair a success and they felt
amply repaid for their work by the
way the people showed their appreeia-
ton.
The color scheme was very ably
carried out, the Gymnasium being dec
GRATED with the class colors which
were green and gold. Gold streamers
were suspended from the balcony and
pine and spruce branches placed
around the ball room, giving a very
pleasing effect.
Dancing began at o'clock and con
tinued until IL with the exception OF
a few minutes intermission, during
which the class served ice cream and
cake.
The music was furnished by Hur-
ley's Orchestra of Bennington, which
consisted Of four pieces. The music
was very fine and much appreciated.
There were &C couples there and the
class, after paying their numerous ex'
penses, had quite large sum to give
to their treasurer to be used next year,
their graduation year. The Junior
Class wish to thank all who so kindly
assisted in making their Prom sue
cess, both socially and financially.

The first is the successful drive in the Volhynia, southeast of Lutsk. The second is an advance of the extreme southern wing of Gener- al Brussilod's s forces along the high road leading into Hungary and the third is the important situation in the Caucasas rising from the taking of Baibut.

A REAL FISH

A REAL FISH
"Say," said the old and truthful
Texan last night in the editorial room
as he helped himself to an orange,
none of you fellows ever saw Bra
EOS catfish?"
mo"
well, sir, talk about cats having
nine lives; why, they can't hold a
light to a Brazos catfish"
do they live lOng?"
Live long? Well, I should say. I
caught one one night when lived on
the Brazos and having heard how te-
nacious they were Of life 1 sorter
thought I'd try and see if it were
true. He weighed about fifty pounds
and hauled him home and threw him
down on the floor, and along in the
night when it began to get cool
blamed if he didn't flop up to the fire
and warm himself, and it would have
done you fellows good to have seen
him. He got to be very gentle and
he would get out in the yard and lie in
the sun and catch flies"
ibid you feed him any?"
ooh, yes, fed him all the milk he
wanted and that's what led to his
death"
'HoW?"
you see he used to follow me to
the COW pen to get fresh milk and he
learned the cattle and one day he
followed them off on the prairie and
got lost and starved to death. Gen
tlemen, he beat any fish 1 ever saw"
