Published sketches of the great Ger
man and British sea battle, drawn from
cablcd dispatches" make about as silly
contribution to American newspaper
making as one could expect TO see. Ca
bled dispatches" are not needed to guide
the artists hand; nothing but the imag-
nation is needed. OF course, there can
be no fidelity to detail of the particular
fight when sketch is drawn under such
conditions, only the general idea OF guns
belching smoke and ships keeling and
going down. The newspaper reading
public which is satisfied with such de-
pictions is, indeed, in bad way; but il
is our opinion that few readers are gull
lble enough to believe that such draw

security which British people feel to-day
is due largely to the efforts of Kitchener
of Khartum. Therefore, the feeling OF
loss which Great Britain has sustained in
his death at sea is all the more poignant
at the present time. 1t is sense of
great loss, combined with feeling of
gratitude for performance OF tremendous
national service.
And yet, looking at the loss from a
cold blooded point of view it can be said
with apparent truthfulness that Earl
Kitchener's great work was done. He
had raised the greatest volunteer army
ever known; he had placed Great Britain
in position to defend herself. OF that
army of 100000 men, perhaps 100000
men are available at the present time,
most of them trained for active service

although not yet called to enter the bat
tie line. That work accomplished, it is
left for some other head to guide the
destinies of that tremendous fighting
force. Kitchener would not have been
the supreme directing head had he lived;
the work would have devolved upon
someone else. So while feeling sense
of great loss and while approaching the
extremely valuable service which Kitch-
ener performed, the people of Great Brit
ain, together with their allies, will not
look forward with gloomy vision as they
contemplate the work still TO be done.
Kitchener furnished the wherewithal for
the conduct of the war; some other will
carry on the distinct department of work
which calls for the disposal of those men
for the best service.

POLITICAL ADVERTISING
With Apologies.

Those papers that are trying to stir VI
lex. Governor Fletcher had better let hin
alone. 1t is not a good time to stir W
the people on certain matters.-Morris
vile Messenger.
And this reminds us that possibly W.
owe our esteemed contemporary, the st
Adams Messenger, an apology for having
omitted from our recently published list
tof Governor Fletcher's oifeDses Thy way
Of calling The Messengers attention to
lenormities il had failed TO mention in its
attack upon the former executivel two
or three more of the governors trans
gressions, which we regard as specially
offensive from popular standpoint.
One of these additional offenses on the
part of Governor Fletcher, which we neg
lected to mention, was his securing OF
legislation which resulted in factory in
spection and has brought about improved
sanitary conditions in Vermont mills and
factories and greatly enhanced the COM
fort and safety of employees.
Another offense on the part Of Gov
ernor Fletcher, which we neglected to tell
The Messenger about, was his compass
ing of the removal of high voltage power
lines from the highways of the state,
through the medium of the public service
commission, and thus freeing those who
travel those highways from peril that
needs no emphasis.
Another offense on the part of Gov
ernor Fletcher, which we neglected to
mention in our recent article, was his
the principle once for all,
that the state is entitled to good and
sufficient bond at the hands of those to
whom il intrusts the administration of
It's finances. This, it may be remarked
in passing, was not a debatable question
it was a fixed principle of good bust
ness.
1t may be that other "offenses" that !
should not be condoned viii occur to us
alter. If so, we shall be glad TO call the |
attention of the St. Adams contemporary !
o them and assist it in convincing the |
people at large of the enormity of those |
'offenses" of Governor Fletcher which it |
omitted from its initial
ist.-Vermont Tribune.
