with the exception of the capitol city

cenSe as against % last year.
-Four counties, Grand Isle, Lamoille,
Orange and Windsor are dry. In two
counties. Windham and Caledonia,
there is only one wet town apaice.
The little town OF Somerset in Wind
ham county voted for license by a
margin of seven to two. Caledonia
county which was dry last year has n
moist spot in Newark where the pop
ulation is so scattered there is no
village The votes for license there
was % to 10.
Throughout the state available fig
ures Shove tendency to a small wet
vote.
The city elections furnished compa-
ratiycly few features of general inter-
est. In Burlington there was Il close

Republican, was defeated by DIR. j.
Holmes Jackson. a Democrat, by ter

LARGE, TICKET SALE
Taft Lecture Promises To Draw Rec
ord Breaking Crowd

More than 200 tickets to the Taft
lecture have already been sold, and
out of town orders are arriving every
day. At present the outlook is that
and the .early bird will get the
worm" The address by eX-Presldent
Taft will explain in detail the follow
ing plan that is proposed.
It is proposed that the nations in
the alliance shall boycott and use
their military forces against any mem
Der nation that commits an act OF war
against another member without first
submitting its grievance to court or
council and awaiting conclusion.
1t is proposed to abolish secret d.
plomacy, which has brought on so
many wars, by substituting therefore
delay and public discussion. Nations
are like men: the longer they talk the
less likely they are to fight.
The League is strongest in Amerl-
ca just now, although it is active in
both ~belligerent and other neutral
countries.
1t is proposed to hold international
conferences to codify and supplement
international law to establish an in
ternational court to try causes of dis
pute between nations, and council
of Cancellation to compose difficulties
that are outside the jurisdiction OF
the court.
! Because it exists for a single pur-
pose the League to Enforce Peace mas
been able to bring together for that
purpose men from all political parties
! of all faiths and creeds, of all shades
! of belief from pacifism to prepared
+ ness.
