A Young Man of Promise.

The hearts of the members OF tbs
newspaper fraternity of Vermont go out
in sympathy to Luther B. Johnson, edi
tor and publisher of the Randolph Herald
and News, in the sorrow which has come
into his life in the death of his elder son
Paul, who, since his graduation from
Dartmouth college two years ago, had
been his fathers assistant, in charge of
the local work of the excellent paper of
which the elder johnson has been the
head many years. The young man pos
sessed fine mind, was well trained, and
the prospect of a long life of usefulness
and influence seemed open before him
when he was stricken with tuberculosis,
Despite all that outdoor life and medical
science could give, he failed gradually,
his death occurring July 8 in his home,
after he had been in the sanatorium in
Pittsford many months. - Brattleboro

CURRENT COMMENT
Teams That Carry Lights.

The man who drives a team at night
and who fails to have a lighted lantern
attached is taking a variety of chances
He is defying the law and is liable to
arrest, prosecution in court, with a fine
and costs as the only alternative in case
complaint is made against him. He is
inviting an accident on the highway, as
vehicle not marked by light is more
liable to collision with automobile, mo
torcycyle or other conveyance than a
team which carries light In case of
accident the man who drives the unlfght-
ed team has no redress. The other party
NAV have been at fault entirely, but the
man who did not have light displayed
has no case. He may, however, be made
the defendant in a suit at law on the
ground that he caused the accident by
not carrying light Brattleboro Re

In point of prisoners captured and
guns taken, the present Russian drive
has already surpassed some of the best
efforts of the British and the French
over long periods of attack; yet it must
be taken into consideration that the leu
tons are not so deeply dug in on the
eastern front as they are on the western
front, nor are the defenses of the line so
elaborate there as they are on the west

the western front, although it is admit

The Bad hammered Colonel.

| Every stickler for the proprieties anc
every hater of Roosevelt naturally takes
fall out of the colonel for his unseemly
outbreak at the Russian reception meet
ing. He surely did act scandalously
How unctuously, how appropriately, how
exclusively a well behaved, ordinary per.
son would have polished off the distin.
guished guests he was appointed to be-
praise! And how outrageously the colo
mel took advantage of the occasion to
make the presence of free Russians the
incentive of vehement exhortation to
free Americans to be wholly free!
Let us not, however, dwell on the jus
tifcation Of the painful episode. Some
of the Russians may have secretly sym
pathized with a man who even in gath
give expression to feelings evoked
by the sight of men whose countrymen
had reyolted against the tyranny that
used Siberia and the pogrom to buttress
it. They may have experienced the sat
isfaction earnest men feel at the express
sion of an earnest mans deep feeling.
Fresh from the casting off of convention
al chains, they may have appreciated the
spectacle of an abnormally free man in
action. Their evening was certainly not
the humudrum affair it seemed destined
to be.
But every truly sensitive soul in the
country tells us that the colonel put our
guests in a most embarrassing position,
and doubtless the sensitive souls know.
Let us hope, therefore, with The Times,
that the colonel will receive the social
he so richly deserves and
that he won't be invited to another par
ty for long time.New York Globe.

ment will be watched with great interest
by the Other institutions of higher edu-
cation in New England The University
of Chicago has pursued for many years
the fourt ,rm arrangement by which a
student may receive his degree in three
years by emitting the summer vacations.
Many young men in the middle west
have taken advantage of this opportuni-
ty. But hitherto the idea of continuous
sessions has not made any serious i'm
preston on the colleges and universities
of the east.
The practice of suspending all college
exercises from early June until late
September inevitably represents a great
economic waste. The expense of main
tanning the huge educational plant goes
on for twelve months in the year, while
full use is made of it during eight or
nine months only. II one were to take
the average college classroom, for exam
pie, and figure out the number of hours
which it is actually used in any year as
compared with the entire possibility, the
showing would be sbsurdly small. No
business concern would tolerate like
condition of affairs if it could possibly
he avoided. II is natural that President
Hopkins, on coming to Dartmouth after

public utility concerns, should fxe his

This is said in reference to recent in

and presentation Of flag. The mayor
went to the gathering, by invitation, TO

address in 80 doing But he left in a huff
before the exercises were concluded, not
remaining long enough to receive the

he set forth his reason for his departure.

A great deal of the physical side of the

Fort Ethan Allen. Therefore, why
should not the German spy system ex'

An incident which should not be al.
lowed to pass unnoticed is the action OF
the inmates of the Vermont house OF
correction at Rutland in contributing a
few cents apiece and buying an Amer
lean flag to place at the institution The
state of Vermont ought to be wealthy
enough to provide all the flags needed at
the Rutland institution, as well as at all
the other state institutions; but if the
state fails to meet the requirements in
this respect, it is a fine display Of patriot
ism for the inmates to take the work
upon themselves.

A seven-passenger automobile locked
wheels with a Ford machine and tipped
the latter over near Putney recently, the
occupants of the small car being more
or less injured. The big machine did not
stop to see what damage had been done
but put on full speed to get out of the
neighborhood, and succeeded in doing so
despite the efforts of the sggrieved par
ties TO telephone ahead to stop them.
Perhaps the occupants of the overturning
car were too much concerned over their
own fate to see the number OF the large
car. which came from behind; it takes a
mind Of unusual balance to watch for
soft place 10 land and at the same time
TO catch a glimpse of the number of the
vehicle that was responsible for the
overturn. Perhaps il was too much to
expect the occupants Of the small car in
this miX-up to catch the number Of the
other car. but that seems to BE- the only
way to bring the hand Of the law upon
those who drive ruthlessly over our mar
row highways in Vermont

presentation speech denounced the bar
barities and infsmies of the German
army in France and Belgium. Such talk
the mayor bitterly resented. He declared
that American citizens of German origin
generally resented them. And then he
added:
ain Sherman's march to the sea there
was done the same things the Germans
are accused of doing in retiring from
France.
That was not true. II is not true. In
Sherman's march no churches were desc
Grated, no historic monuments were de-
stroyed, no civilians were murdered, no
women were outraged. Not even the
feriest and most resentful adherent of
the Lost Cause ever dreamed of charging
Sherman's army or any other American
army with anything like the savage in
famies which the Germans are not mere
lv accused of but which they have been
convicted out of their own mouths of
doing.
This New Jersey mayor is either
grossly ignorant OF the history OF MS
adopted country, or he has been led by
his zeal for "Kultur" into uttering
against il one Of the foulest calumnies
that ever has been spawned by an un-
clean imagination. II may be, of course,
that he got his cue from another and
somewhat more prominent man, who last
year publicly declared that Washington's
army at Valley Forge was comparable
with the Mexican bandits of Paneho
Villa. and that the soldiers who won our
looted churches and stole
everything they could Law their hands on.
But one libel does not excuse another; /

1t would not relieve the situation a
bit for the allies if the kaiser should
depose Won Bethmann- Holweg as his
chancellor, and it is doubtful whether
such an act would set the minds of the
German people at rest. The kaiser might
change chancellors at the rate of one
every day, and still that would not
change the complexion of the government
itself. His only hope in deposing Holl-
veg would be to befog the war issue be-
fore the eyes of his so-called subjects;
the entente allies will continue to fight
on till the Prussian domination is
crushed.

The threatened collapse of the Germs

The threatened collapse of the German
scheme of aggrandizement by war calls
attention to the fact that any other ma
ton in the world would probably have
been compelled to capitulate long before
the end of three years under the pres
sure being brought to bear on that ma
ton. The reason that Germany has been
able to stand so long under the tremen-
dous burden is because Germany has
been conserving her energies and her
stores for just such world venture as
this. But the calculations have gone
awry, and Germany will have to stand
the consequences in due season.

THE RIGHT TO ORGANIZE.

The strike of the street car men in Seattle and Tacoma, involves the right of workingmen to organize They arc working for the traction companies and the traction com panies say they cannot and those who attempt to do so are black listed.
 That seems a very simple matter, one way or another and indeed so it is The ownership which the trac- tion companies exercise places them in such a position wherein they can dictate what the workers may and may not do.
 With what will anyone compare this, but with the au;ocracy which kings and powerful lords posses under feudalism.
 Furthermore as a matter of pa triotism, it may be asked, is it an ideal democracy where men can be denied the means of livelihood if they organize with their fellow workers. The answer to that ques- ton is not to be given in flag way ing, fourth of July orations, fire crackers or other ostentations dis play of patriotic feelings. It is best answered by the workers organiz- ing and fighting on the industrial field for industrial liberty and declaring that not any power. ownership or anything else will prevent them getting together
