human element as Mr.. Root is and who
ought to be able, therefore, TO appeal to
the best that is in the Russian mind
Mr.. Root can furnish the cold outline OF
that which ought to be in a democracy
and the others can put in the more in
innate, warmer essentials that have to
do with the solidifying of that frame
work. Men of the stamp of James Dun
can, the capable official of the Granite
Cutters International association, are
probably in closer touch with the sym
pathies of the masses of the people than
brought into contact with those people
and their needs. Mr.. Duncan is good
Judge of human nature, and while the
Russian nature may be somewhat new
type for him to fathom il is probable
that he will be able in measure to size
it mp and realize its ambitions. In these
two Americans, Elihu Root and James
Duncan. we feel a considerable degree OF
confidence, and we expect that If their
voices and their influences can penetrate
the solid mass of quarreling Russians
they win be able to do much toward
strengthening out the tremendous gov
eminent tangle which is now expressing
the former empire of the Romanoffs and
which is handicapping the entente allies
in their efforts to make the
world safe for democracy, as President
Wilson says The progress of the Amer
lean commission to Russia will be fol-
lowed with anxious interest through the
United States and the whole entente side |

The premier of Rumania says that hi:
country is ready to resume war despite
the terrible losses already sustained, hay
ing rearranged her army and furnished
the equipment and supplies necessary
1t is to be hoped, however, that Rumania
will wait until her allies are in a position
to grant her more assistance than they
did at the outset of her ill-starred war
fare. That was about the time that
Russia's strength as a fighting force be.
gan to fail and Rumania in the eastern
fringe of the war was too far away to
get aid from her big allies in the west.
Russia's failure to lend the promised as
sistance was ascribed to. disloyalty of
the government to the cause of the en-
tente allies; but it now seems that the
failure was due as much as anything to
the impoverished condition of the nation
that is impoverished in everything ex-
cept the human resources. Russia is in
even worse position to-day; and it would
be practically suicide for Rumania TO.
attempt any great offensive plans now.

LAURIER REFUSES COALITION.
Declines to Join Premier Borden of Cana
da in Forming Dual Ministry.

Ottawa, Ont, June 9--Correspondence
made public Thursday shows that Sir
Wilfrid Laurier definitely has refused
to join Premier Borden in the work OF
forming a coalition government to enact
measure for compulsory military serv-
ice Sir Wilfrid expressed regret that
he had not been asked to form the coal
ition before compulsory service was an
nounced, as he feared difficulties if con-
scription was determined upon by the
present Parliament.
1t is expected that the prime minister
viii go past the opposition leader and
take into the government Liberals who
favor compulsory service.
The premier proposed to Sir Wilfrid
that the coalition government be formed,
a military service bill be passed but not
put into effect until after a general cleo
tion, and that Parliament be dissolved,
and an election held to obtain the APP
prevail of the people for the coalition
government and compulsory service.
The letters which passed between the
premier and Sir Wilfrid show also there
was close approach to coalition, and
that there even was a discussion of the
suitability Of some OF the men it was
proposed might enter the new ministry.
Finally, after another meeting, when
the possible personnel of coalition
government was considered, at a confer

COMBINATION STEAM AND MOTOR
TOURS,

Recognizing the part which the motor
vehicle plays in summer outing, the Cen
trail Vermont Railway Co. through Cen
eral Passenger Agent J. w. Hanley, has
hit upon scheme of com bination rail
road and automobile tours through the
scenic parts of Vermont which are likely
to prove attractive to large number of
people, chiefly perhaps to those who do
not have automobiles, for the railway
company is to furnish motor vehicles for
transportation through sections not ira
versed by the track of the Central Yer
mont. The proposed tours cover the
eastern, central and northwestern parts
of Vermont and that part of Canada ly-
ing between Vermont and Montreal. The
headquarters points are Montreal st. Al
bans, Burlington, Barre, White River
Junction and Woodstock. Radiating
from, or touching those points, four tours
have been mapped out. One of the tours,
starting by automobile from Barre, takes
in the Barre granite quarries and leads
70 st. Adams. Another. also starting by
motor vehicle from Barre, traverses the
Granville gulf route or the Williamstown
and Barnard gulf routes to Woodstock.
During the stay in Barre the headquar
tiers will be at Hotel Barre, while in the
other Vermont places the leading hotels
are named as headquarters. The descrip-
tive circular put out by the Central Yer
mont company Is TO be distributed quite
extensively in the larger cities Of Massa
chusetts in time for the opening of the
present tourist season. II is novel
scheme Of combining rail and motor ex-
cursion travel. and it should prove popu-
lar.

EAST BARRE

A very pleasant gathering was held
Wednesday evening at the home of Mrs.
Howard Norris in the form OF a linen
shower, rendered Miss Ethel NJ Bslch
in honor of her approaching marriage
to Frank j. Murphy. The rooms were
very tastefully decorated with the pa
triotic colors in red, white and blue bunt-
ing and with many flags. When Miss
BaIch entered the house to answer TO an
important telephone call, she was greet
ed with a shower of tiny bouquets of
cherry blossoms from the friends who
had gathered, numbering nearly 30. She
then was given a thread TO follow, which
led, after much difficult unrsyelling TO
large decorated basket, in which were
laid parcels of various sizes and all de-
GRATED with the same tri-cOlored ribbon.
The gifts were many pieces of linen and
