THE INCREASING DRIFT

The feature Of the Congressional
situation WHICH is attracting consider
able attention is the renewal and in
creasinE drift toward government own
crship. 10 began some time ago when
Postmaster Burlcson favored govern
m"nt control OF the telegraph and ,eIe-
phone lines. which failed To get any
support worth mentioning Then came
tho ship purchase bill which failed OF
passaE" in the Senate. but which has
been renewed This session with equal
insistence on the part Of the admins
tration. Il may go through the pros
cnt session OF Congress. There re-
mains. however. in the background a
variety Of ownership and interference
or regulation schemes OF one sort or
another with which the country is al.
ready familiar Government subscrip-
ton 10 the entire stock Of the proposed
land mortgage banks. the rural
credits scheme is now apparently re-
garded as a foregone conclusion by
H'"Aie dll ElbAIe OF ODStFN trS. such
a step. Of course. will be equivalent TO
putting the government definitely into
the banking business.
The plan most in the public eve at
the present moment is the establish
ment OF an armor plate plant. which
has passed the Senate and will un-
doubleday be- approved by the House.
Secretary Daniels has just outlined
the views Of the Navy Department TO
the House Naval Committee on prepar.
edness plans. which. OF course. includes
the endorsement OF the armor plate
project. In addition he advises that
the government also 20 into the bust
ness OF manufacturing munitions and
projectiles. All these measures look
to the loss Of capital invested in pr
vate enterprises. for there can be- no
competition with government con
trolled plants. Il this trend wise or
fair TO individual investments?

was opened by District Deputy Grand
Matron Mrs. Maude Fletcher of Or
leans and D. D. OR. Patron l.. B.
Wellman of Newport, with the chairs
occupied by officers Of Lakeside Chap
ter. The work of the degrees was ex-

which interesting addresses were made
by the Grand Matron Mrs. Florence
Pierce of Barton, Grand Patron Ed

Important Happenings and Local
Notes from the County Seat.

At the conference Saturday of the
officers of the towns and villages at
this end Of the lake, such steps were
taken as indicate a determination to
secure relief from the great damage
ported due to the high water in Lake
Memphremagog. c. S. Emery Of the
Newport board Of trustees, L. F. Kay
Of the Derby board of selectmen and
w. A. Elliott of Coventry board of
selectmen were chosen committee to
investigate and institute such pro-
ceedings as may become necessary
and report from time to time to meet
ings to be held for that purpose. The
purpose is to take the matter up with
the mill owners and if desired results
are not obtained to take it to the state
department at Washington for refer
ence to the international joint COM
mission for hearing and determine
ton.

again ready for the second cup.
The committee in charge of this
fair are to be complimented for the
splendid arrangement, the decorations
and ability to choose judges who gave
satisfaction in judging.
Several Of the visitors suggested
that this display be left the following
day for the public to witness and next
years committee will do well to keep
this in mind, so that townspeople may
become more familiar with the coun-
try friends attitude and success. In
this connection, if all Oranges in the
county could have as good a fair as
the Memphremagog Grange exhibited
and then carry their best to the coun-
ty fair, it would improve and create a
new era for our county fair which is
needed so much.

Tampa Tribune.)

Opportunity knocks at the door of
a community just as it knocks at the
door of an individual. n
Opportunity is now knocking at
the door of our neighbor county of
Polk-and knocking so loudly that
no citizen of that county can ignore
the significance Of the sound.
Opportunity says to Polk county:
You may, by one days action, be-
come the first county of the south
in good roads building. You may
place yourself at the top of the list
of counties of this great empire of
progress and prosperity which are
moving for better things"
Polk county will, on Thursday,
vote upon bond issue of 81, 500, 900
for the construction of good roads.
The kind of road has already been
determined upon. Their location
their cost and the contractors who
are to build them are already known.
Polk county voters therefore go to
the polls with their eyes open. There
is no uncertainty as to how the
money they are asked to vote is to be
spent. The honest expenditure of the
fund is vouched for by the leading
citizens of the county, men thor
oughly trustworthy and dependable
The chance of graft and dishonesty
of diversion of the funds for other
purposes not sanctioned by the PEG,
pie, is practically nil. No people ev
er went to the polls with greater as
surance of getting what they vote
for.
The only question then is whether
or not the people of Polk count!
want these roads
The Tribune takes it that Their,
can scarcely be sensible dispute oil
this question.
The wonderful advantage that will
accrue to Polk county by reason o
taking this great step toward su
premacy in public improvement mus
needs impress every reasoning vote
of that county.
Aside from the great convenience
which il will DrOye to every reSiden
of the county the advertisement gil
