THANKSGIVING.

President Wilson's Thanksgiving
proclamation is worthy of perusal by
the people of the United States and
for this reason the Monitor prints the
meat of the message.
The year that has elapsed since we
last observed our day of thanksgiving
has been rich in blessings to us as a
people, but the whole face of the
world has been darkened by war. In
the midst of our peace and happiness
our thoughts dwell with painful dis
quiet upon the struggles and suffer-
ings of the nations at war, and of the
peoples upon whom war has brought
disaster without choice or possibility
of escape on their part. We cannot
think of our own happiness without
thinking of their pitiful distress.
Now, therefore, l, Woodrow Viii
son, president of the United States of
America, do appoint Thursday, the
Both of November, as a day of nation
al thanksgiving and prayer, and urge
and advise the people to resort tC
day to render thanks to Almighty
broken prosperity, which he has be
slowed upon our beloved country il
such Unstinting measure.
And | also urge and suggest oul
duty, in this, our day of peace anC
abundance, to think in deep sympa
thy of the stricken people of the
world upon whom the curse of terro-
of war has so pitilessly fallen and t.
contribute out of our abundant means
to the relief Of their sufferings.
Our people could in no better way
present struggle Of the nations thar
by contributing out Of their abun
dance to the relief of the suffering
which was brought in it's train.

The railroad brotherhoeds which so
recently wanted an eight-hour law
and went to President Wilson with
the proposition and got such a law
forced through congress, are now viii
ming because the law does not work
out as they expected. They again
threaten a strike unless the roads do
as they, the brotherhoods dictate. The
Monitor had some sympathy with the
original demands Of the brotherhoods
but has little patience with their pres
ent position. Many laws fail to work
out as expected and because the law
they asked for and finally got, pinches
uncomfortably in some places, is no
reason for another upneaval. The
present position of the brotherhoods
shows another and a smaller side of
their organization than was present
ed in the original demands and is
losing the sympathy of hundreds of
thousands of people for their cause
Because they forced the president
and the country to submit to their de-
nands once is no reason to believe
that they can continue to do so every
time there is a disagreeable feature
in their work that irritates and an
noys.

One of the pithy sayings recently
run across the front page of the Ben
nington Banner, a feature the writer
always looks for, was this: zone of
the troubles of American people is an
inability to realize that windfalls and
the hand-picked apples both grow on
the same tree" There is a whole
sermon in these few words.

The State Ticket.


F. Gates and Roger S. Hulburd the
only new officers on the state ticket
there need be no guesswork as to the
team work of the state officers elect
ed by the people.
Mr. Graham will take into the ex-
ecutive department long years Of ex-
perience in state matters, and those
who are well acquainted with his
work, and that is nearly the entire
state, need have no fear of results
from this quarter He certainly has
the knowledge of inside affairs that
it would be impossible for any other
man to have. To say that he will use
his own head in the Office of governor
goes without saying. If the legisla-
ture will listen to him there should be
many good things come from him. If
he is blocked in any of the ideas of
state affairs he has in mind it will
certainly not be his fault Horace
has way of winning over doubtful
minds Get behind him, gentlemen,
for he knows how.
In Mr.. Gates, the state auditor-to-
be, the state has a man who has been
mixed up with affairs long enough to
be able to give a good account of
himself. He is very much given to
studying affairs of state, and particu-
larry so during the last two years,
and one thing to be remarked at this
| time is the fact that the executive Of
| flee at the state house has been al
ways open, and someone there to take
notice, and it has generally been Ben
| himself. It is hoped the custom of
| keeping the executive office at the
state house open at all times will be
| followed by all governors hereafter
Auditor Gates will find a competent
force in his Office to greet him.
Old reliable Guy w. Bailey, the of.
flclal who gets fat on work, will be
at the same old stand. We all know
how competent he is. A column tell.
ing of his business qualities woulc
not add one word to the esteem ir
which he is held.
Smiling Walter Scott is with Us
again. He is a dignifed treasurer
competent and courteous and goo(
mixer, as all who know him can testi
~. tom" Cave is his good right
hand man, very efficient, splendic
accountant, and together the office i
splendidly equipped.

onstrated his ability to handle al
matters in his department with tact

state, and keeping down expenses
He is Woodworking official and vii
De good right hand for the incom

The man who came from behind t
the wire is Roger Hulburd, the to-b
lieutenant governor. No doubt abou
his being an able presiding Officer
and he will give dignity to this i'm
2orE;ant branch Of the legislature.

WHAT THE PAPERS SAY.
Prominent Men Defeated at Home.

Two prominent Vermonters were
defeated for representative in their
home towns Tuesday-Hon. William
A. Lord in Montpelier and Hon. Rob-
ert W. Simonds in ST. Johnsbury.
One of the strange things in politics
is the fact that the abIest men are Of
ten beaten by the petty jealousies of
their home town. President Wilson
on Tuesday was beaten in his home
ward, town, county and state. Mont
pelier and st. Johnsbury have I'm
doubtedly elected good and reasona-
bly, able men to the legislature, but
men who will not have one-tenth of
the force and influence there of the
men they defeated. So long as SO
many towns and cities deliberately
do this sort of thing the voters of
Vermont have no reason to complain
about the shortcomings of the Yer

Insane or Not Insane.

Insane or Not Insane.
1t has long been charitably agreed
that a person who takes his own life
must be out of his mind; but wheth-
er one who takes another's life is in
sane or not insane is another ques-
ton. Tender-hearted juries seem in
clined to believe that a murderer, even
when caught red-handed in the act,
is not guilty on the ground that he is
at the moment mentally unbalanced
and not responsible for his crime
He may have been clear-headed
enough an hour or two before to Sc
| cure a suitable weapon with which to
commit the deed and deliberately to
infame his anger and hatred by i'm
billing fiery liquor. In such a course
there would seem to be a trace of
generalization and the suspicion of a
purpose in his madness, although he
may not have been his normal self
when the fatal shot was fired or the
fatal blow was struck.
It cannot be a pleasant task to
send fellow being to the gallows or
to the electric chair. A jury, before
whom the trial has Enthusiastically
established the fact that the misera-
BILE prisoner at the bar did Stay a hu-
man being, would have to be com
posed of very cold and unfeeline
creatures if it did not turn a willine
ear to the plea of insanity and there
by escape the fearful duty of con
demning the guilty wretch to death
How preferable to death lifelong
Incarceration in an insonn asvlun1
would appear, might be more doubt
f71l were it not that while there is life
there is also hope-of future release
The idea that person can be insane
one minute and sane the minute be
fore and the minute after seems to be
accepted, not IS an absurdity, but as
a probable fact Moreover the in
sane criminal, having -regained his
reason, is gently pitied for having
been allowed to live under whole
some restraint and healthful sur
roundings for the same length O.
time that his victim has lain, cold ant
still, in narrow grave.-Springfelt
