1t is certainly reassuring to hear
man of such clear vision and mature
judgment rs Elihu Root head of the
American mission to Russia, express his
belief in the ultimate success Of the new
republic. Mr. Root gives MS to under
stand that the reports of riots, strikes
and other disturbances in Russia are
misleading in that they distort the stu
alton. AS he says, if all the telcgraphic
bulletins of such disturbances in this
country were concentrated and sent to
Russia the people of that country would
get an alarming impression of the sta
bility of the United States Both Mr..
Root and other members of the com
mission are of the opinion that the Rus
sian republic will weather the storm
which is now testing it, especially if
the people of that country are given the
assurance that the United States is in
the conflict to remain until the finish.

In spite OF the recent statement that
the next offering of Liberty bonds would
not be made until November New York
banking circles are inclined to the opin-
ion that the loan may be placed on the
market as early as September. There
is much discussion as to the rate of in
terest the next bond issue will bear In
some quarters it is asserted that the
great success of the first loan on a 3 .
Ipcr cent basis insurcs success equally
as great for a second loan at a similar
rate. On the other hand. it is argued
that the success Of the first offering was
due TO the general understanding that
the second loan would be at a higher
rate, which would give buyers of the
original offering the privilege of con
vcrting their bonds into a per cen
security.

Fleetwood a Possibility.
Rutland IIerald.)


The Herald s dispatches indicate that
Frederick G. Fleetwood of NorriSville,
secretary Of state from 1902 to 1908, is
being considered to fill the vacancy
caused by the resignation of Guy W.
Bailey. The news carries additional
information that Mr. Fleetwood would
not be a candidate for the nomination
of secretary of state in 1918.
If this appointment is made, with at
least three competent, ambitious young
men ready to accept the office and Seri-
ouslv qualify as real secretary Of state,
it simply means that Governor Graham
prefers to ''play safe, politically,
rather than face the situation and pick
the best man he can get hold of.
Mr.. Fleetwood is Of course a thorough
ly pleasant and acceptable parsonage.
He filled the office for six wears when
its demands were by no means as siren
nous as they are today, and will no doubt
be able to give the office all the sarto-
rial grace and personal attractiveness
which were characteristic of his former
incumbency, hut-he will at best be only
a stopgap, and it may be set down as
gospel that he won t put himself out

having more than met the quota re-
quired because of voluntary enlist
ments and thus being cleared of the
draft for this time. We have not
noticed that any individual credit has
been extended for this immunity which
has fallen to the lot of Windham coun-
ty, but we suspect that the untiring
work of Capt. f. w. Gibson of Brattle-
boro was III large part responsible for
/ the present situation of the county
Capt Gibson was busy recruiting the
Brattleboro company for some time
prior to concerted efforts i'll most of

county had been rather thoroughly
secured he went into the neighbOring
county of Bennington and secured MANY

DEYETTE GETS DIVORCE.
But Wife Given Custody of Daughter
So He Will Appeal.

BURLINGTON, Aug. 9.-The sensa-
tiOnal Devettc divorce case, which has
occupied the attention Of the Chitten-
den county court for several days, came
TO a close yesterday when Judge But
Ter granted decree to John +. Deyette
from his wife, Eugenie Deyette, on the
ground of intolerable severity. Both
parties brought suit and the cases were
tried together. The wife is given the
custody of the four-year-od daughter,
and Deyette is ordered to pay alimony of
800 a year. A hundred thousand words
of testimony were taken at the trial
The case will be appealed upon exceE-
tions, taken by Deyette, who seeks Gus
tody of the child.

the towns and cities which responded so
in the first campaign should
be exempt from further call until other
less patriotic communities have re-
sponded. As matter of fact Burling

campaign, ought to be shamed into con
