Running o Catch the cars.

Editor, Times: That the several sup
porters of the Spaulding high basketball
team, who attended the game at Mont
pelier last evening did not more ade-
quately express TO the crew of the 9:l5
electric car out of Montpelier their opin-
ion of the electric road, its running seed
ule, etc, was due simply to the fact
that sufficient breath was not left them
after doing a marathon run from the end
Of the car line on State street back to
the corner of State and Main streets,
where they succeeded in catching the
car.
As the electric roads waiting room
(?) seemed TO be closed, many, in pref
erence to standing still in zero weather,
walked to the end of the State street
line TO take the car there, only to see
the car come as far as the State House
and the crew turn the trolley and start
back to Barre, leaving their patrons at
the end of the line. Then the marathon
run started.
IL is hardly to be expected that patron
age of the road would increase under the
present schedule arrangement.

LETTERS TO THE
EDITOR
Expects Perry Bill to Be Defeated.


Editor of 1.-THE Times, Barre, Vt,
Dear Sir:
The anti.saloon league is using valua
BILE advertising space to insinuate that
the local option league is connected with
some organization in Burlington, not
withstanding the fact that headquarters
of the league are in White River juno.
ton.
You are aware that the advertising of
the league has been done by the Hays
agency, business arrangement which
most newspapers of the state find de-
sirable and profitable. In the same way
the mailing of the leagues booklet was
done by the Hays agency, the agency
having the only comprehensive mailing
list in the state.
We know nothing about the Burlington
License association or any other organi-
zation in Burlington other than the Hays
agency which has done our work, and
we would request that you give this
statement publicity without charging
lis for il as it is more justice to the UNI
dersigned.
Reports from every county in the state
indicate that the Perry act will be de-
feated a. because of its drastic fea
lures; 81 because OF misrepresentation
by its advocates; ~ because of doubts
raised if its constitutionality IA because
the people generally believe that the
present law is temperance measure and
are willing to ''let well enough alone.
By the end OF this week we expect to
place an estimate on the size of the ma
jority against the Perry act and in favor
Of the present local option law. win you
kindly give this letter such prominence
and publicity as you can conveniently
Yours very truly,
Vermont Local Option League

The destruction Of the large Bonaven-
ture station OF the Grand Trunk Railway
company at Montreal is laid to various
causes, one of which naturally is incen-
diarsm due to the war in which Canada
is participating. Such theory is at once
secuted by those who are in authority,
the government officials and the police
department of Montreal, who have been
on the qui vive for appearance OF spies
and plotters being particularly emphatic
in their assertions that the fire must
have been due to an accidental cause
However, it is readily admitted that the
outbreak of fire may have been due to
some overt act on the part OF a hostile
mind. For instance, it would have been
very simple matter for plotter to place
clock bomb in a suitcase and strolling
into the station, to have the case tenn
porarily stored in the parcel room of the
station. there to remain until the mo-
ment of the release of the internal ma

ment's opinion of the Vermont National
Guard is encouragement for the eXpendi-
ture of even more effort to improve the
efficiency of that organization, If it has
been possible during a comparatively few
years to bring the Vermont militia up to
a position in which it is looked upon as
one of the most efficient military organ
izations of the whole country, it should
be possible to improve the standard even
further and to place it at the front OF
the various state organizations. In view
of the fact that Congress seems likely to
federalize the National Guards of all the
states into a more or less compact re-
serve army, the Vermont National Guard
will be brought more emphatically into
the notice of the war department and
any progress which the organization may
make in the meantime viii put it in line

at the same time, hasten the program Of
