PRACTICAL FACTS OF THE GEOL-
OGY OF VERMONT.

| Every time n report by Dean George n.
Perkins of the State university as State
scoogist appears we think how fortu-
nate is Vermont in having in this depart
ment a man who is intensely practical and
! not victim of mere theory. The tenth
| biennial report of the Vermont State geoi-
/ ogist now before US is no exception to
the rule. Indeed it is one of the most
comprehensive and valuable geological re-
ports ever issued in the Green Noun
| tain state. Like previous reports II is
! fully illustrated by ensravings and maps
and contains much of interest and value
to anyone interested in the geology OF
| Vermont
| The first article is Il very complete study
by Prof H. l.. Fairchld of the University
of Rochester on Post Glacial Marine
Waters in Vermont Professor F'airchiid
is probably the best authority in the coun-
try on the subject of ancient water lev
els and his paper contains very valuable
information as to former conditions of
the distribution of land and water in this
State.
Somewhat connected with the subject
named is the paper by Professor Cold
thwait of Dartmouth on evidences OF
Local Glaciers in the Green Mountains
in ancient times, The region about Wood
stock and Plymouth is that especially
studied. and interesting results of the
careful study of this area are given.
Professor Jones of the University Of
Texas writes OF tho 'I'hysiography OF
Greensboro, Hardwick and Woodbury..
giving the results of two seasons, field
work In the region named.
Harold Ladd Smith of the Vermont
Marble company, at the request of tho
seologist. has written an account OF the
recently established lime plant of the
company. As this is unlike any lime
making plant hitherto built in Vermont its
methods of work are OF value to all Yer
monters.
Professor Richardson of Syracuse Uni
versity continues his work which he has
carried ON for more than ten years in
the eastern part of the State. bringing
MS Investigations south as far as Mont
pei'er ana adjacent towns. lie has made
some Important discoveries by which the
hi'herto doubtful age of some OF the
ROCKS can be definitely fixed. The seol-
osS oil the region indicated Is described
IN 'he article on the geology of Calais

East Montpelier, Montpelier and Berlin.
A list Of attitudes in Vermont. which
includes all that could be ascertaincd with
any degree of accuracy, has been com
piled by the geologist. This list will be
found very useful in many ways as 1t Is
the first that has been prepared reaching
anything like tho completeness and ac-
curacy 1t has now been possible to at
tain.
Professor Jacobs of the university has
an excellent summary Of copper mining
in Vermont and his article will be found
very useful by those Interested In the SUBJ
ject
A. comprehensive summary of the geol-
ogy Of western Vermont by the geologist
gives the latest conclusions reached as
to the geological history of the Vermont
sidc Of the Champiain valley.
In the ninth report Professor Jacobs
discussed at some length the tale deposits
of the State and in the present volume he
has continued his study a.3 brought It
to conclusion in an article on 1.-THE Tale
and serpentine Deposits OF Vermont"
This article ccntainS valuable information
as 10 the occurrence and origin Of tale
and accounts Of the various mines now in
| operation. Mr.. wIgglesworth % Harvard
University contributes n short article on
Tho Serpentincs OF Vermont" which is
to some degree accessory to that of Pro-
fessor Jacobs.
The usual brief summary of the mineral
Industries. other than those mentioned
In preceding articles. Is also given.
A this h the tankh Of tho series issued
by tho present STATE geologist it has been
thought veil to give at it's close IN in
dex Of the entire 10 volumes. This will
add materially to tho convenience and
valuo Of this aba and comprehensive r.
port.

A CLOSE CITY ELECTION.

The FREE PRESS repeatedly warnsl
'he voters of Burlington that this city
election was no walk-ove- for anybody.
We knew from the shifting of voters
from one side to The other in the light
of long experience that the result must
be very close. 1r fact we would not have
been surprised whichever way the
mayoralty election went. AS it was Dr.
J. Holmes Jackson defeated Mayor Drew
for reelection by ten votes We believe
he will try to give Burlington an efficient
| administration and we congratulate him
| on his victory.
Tho only other marked contests in the
entire city as to candidates were over the
! election of aldermen In third. fourth and
sixth wards, and over thu choice Of school
commissioner ir the third ward. In the
third ward, Charles Caise, republican. de-
! fested J. p. Maynard, democrat for
alderman by n majority Of 80, while for
school commissioner J. p. Murphy. dsmo-
cr'at, defeated II. A. Hurtubise. repubii.
| can. by majority Of 81.
III the fourth ward, long ti,mo strong
| hold of tile Democratic party, there was
a genuine surprise in store for some Of
the faithful. Harold F. Wakefield. repubn.
can, defeated J. II. Clay, democrat, for
! alderman by a majority 50, showing the
possession of considerable political gen.
| eralship Inasmuch as this samc ward
elected Alderman Bergeron, republican,
last year, this old-time democratic strong
\ hold is now represented on the board by
| two republicans.
| In the sixth ward Charles L. Dolan
defeated J. +. Tracy by a majority of
&C. while DR.. Jackson's majority for
J mayor was 49, and Henry Iagar, republi-
can, was elected ward clerk by 81 over
j. e. Powers. The substitution Of Mr..
Dolan, n democrat. for Alderman Buell..
| a republican, in this ward and the cleo
| ton of Mr.. Wakefield in place of Alder
man Dwyer, a democrat. in the fourth
ward, and of Mr.. Caise in place of
Alderman Lessor in the third, leaves the
political complexion Of the board of alder
men ten republicans to two democrats.
the other democrat being Alderman
Bessette of the third.
| This is not by any means the first close
| election in this city. In 1896 II. S. Peck
defeated Seneca Haselton for mayor by
eight votes. In 1899 Robert Roberts dc.
fcatcd T.. NJ. Sutton by q. In 1903 J. f.
Burke defeated DR.. D. C. Hawley by a
majority of 4s. In 1909 J. f. Burke de-
feated w. J. Bigclow by Is, thus turning
the tables on Mr.. Bigclow. who defeated
MIN the year previous by a majority
of 90
