With APOLOGIES

Those papers that are trying to stir
up cx-Gov. Fletcher had better let him
alone. 1t is not a good time to stir up
the people on certain matter.-Mor-
risviue Messenger.
And this reminds us that possibly
we owe our esteemed contemporary
the st. Adams Messenger, an apology
for having omitted from our recently
published list of Governor Fletcher's
offenses (by way Of calling the Mes
seuger's attention to enormities it had
failed to mention in its attack upon
the former executiye) two or three
more Of the Governors transgressions
which we regard as specially offensive
from a popular standpoint.
One of these additional offenses on
the part Of Governor Fletcher, which
we neglected to mention, was his Sc
curing of legislation which resulted in
factory inspection and has brought
about improved sanitary conditions in
Vermont mills and factories and great
lv enhanced the comfort and safety OF
employees.
Another offense on the part of Gov
ernor Fletcher, which we neglected to
tell the Messenger about, was his com
passing of the removal of high voltage
ROVER lines from the highways of the
state. through the medium of the pub
lie service commission, and thus free
ing those who travel those highways
from a peril that needs no emphasis.
Another offense on the part OF Gov
ernor Fletcher, which we neglected tC
mention in our recent article, was his
establishing the principle once for all
that the state is entitled to a good and
sufficient bond at the hands of those tc
whom 1t intrusts the administration Of
its finances. This, it may be remark
cd in passing, was not a debatablC
question--it was a fixed principle Of
good business.
1t may be that other "ollenses' thai
should not be condoned viii occur tC
ls later. Is so, we shall be glad to cal
the attention OF the st. Adams contem
porary to them and assist it in con
yncing the people at large OF thC
cnoromity Of those "offenses' Of Gov
crnor Fletcher which it inadvertently
omitted from its initial list.-Vermon
| Tribune.

The Value of a Smile

lions upon billions! But there are no
figures vast enough to express the
value to mankind of so small and sim
pie thing as a smile. 1t is IA material
world. We value as riches only the
tangible things we can grasp and hold
in our hands. And, yet, the real treas
ures OF life, which give to all these
outward things their meaning, are of
the heart.
Tangible riches? Why. but for so
tangible a thing as sunlight, the
whole material universe would be
black nothingness; but for "ntang-
ible' heat, not the smallest atom of
earth could exist; but for intangible
colors and fragranccs, the sweetest
Hover would be a weed: and, but for
the intangible light and warmth of
fragrance of smile. the most perfect.
~ human face could be but a lifeless
cast
1t would be very interesting and
highly instructive il one could com.
pute the value of the part which the
smile has played in the history of hui
manity. But. like the ray of sunshine
that comes from the boundlcss heart
OF universal love, it is frcor-it costs
nothing and so cannot be relatively
valued And. like the sunshine again
it glidcs with glory all it falls upon,
and so is limitless in value.
Impossible as is this computation
there are few OF us who have not
learned that it is a smile, not frown,
which makes things move in this
world. II you don't know this. you
have not begun real learning or real
living. If YOU don't konw this. a col
lege diploma, certifying that you arc
educated, is joke, or gray head,
indicating practical experience, is u
mockery.-St Joseph NewsPrcss.

The national presidential campaign |
may now be fairly said to be open, !
with the candidates nominated and the
platforms promulgated A certain
part of the voters are earnest support
ers of President Wilson for reelection
and another part are for Mr. Hughes.
Each group is sincere in believing that
the candidate it supports is best fitted
for the place and stands on the plat
form built on the best idea of patriot
ism and commonsense. Life, to every
person who ever amounts to anything,
is a school Of self restraint and in
hot political campaign self restraint is
needed AS we believe strongly in our
standard bearer We should remember
that our friends of the other party be-
lieye strongly in theirs. Hughes par
tisans and Wilson partisans will never
convince each ether by oratory or ar
ShAhtAt anu II 10 Il waste VI lllllt ana
temper to undertake an effort so silly.
There are plenty Of voters who belong
to neither party, voters who are wab-
| bling in their political moorings or
who have not given enough thought to
the question so that they have a real
opinion on the subject, 1t is these vot-
ers who at this time are not partisans
of either Hughes or Wilson who will
decide the election next November.
Even after spirited presidential
campaign not over seyenty-fve per
cent Of the voters 30 to the polls. The
campaign is none too long to reach the
indifferent and stay at home voters
and there is plenty of material for
every enthusiastic vOte.hunter with
out quarreling with the equally en-
thusiastic Of the other party.

Russia's Return

Russia is coming home. The re-
coyery Of her fortress towns of
Royuo, Lutak and Dubno is but the
initial result of strenuous effort
on the whole battle front to regain
the positions which she lost last
year. She has pulled herself together
for the tremendous struggle in which
she hopes to oxpol the Germans and
Austrians from her territories. TO con
quer Galicia and the Bukowina, and to
establish army headquarters in East
Prussia and Hungary. Russia has the
seasoned army that Grand Duke Mic
hoas kept intact so skifully during
the long retreat last summer, when
lack OF munitions compelled his retire
ment before the German artillery; she
has a new army, perhaps equally
strong in number, trained and equip
ped in the last nine months; and she
is understood to have made sure Of a
supply OF guns and munitions that
will meet all the expected require.
