MONTPELIER REGULARS"
PERFECT. ORGANIZATION

The Montpelier Regulars" met at
the city hall last Friday night and
perfected their organization. Cap
tain Norris presided and the first,
part of the evening was given over
TO free discussion OF the aims and
purposes Of the company. About fifr
~ men were present and the crowd
included a number Of the older and
more prominent citizens OF Montpe-
lier, as well as some of the younger
men. Almost everyone took part
N the discussion which brot out the
following points:
/. Membership in the company
involves no duties or responsible
ties to which every good citizen is not
liable, except the duty OF attending
promptly the regular meetings, and
taking part in the drill In a soldierly
manner.
2. The purposes are first. to en-
able every one who wishes to join TO
fit himself for the duties OF soldier.
SO that the country may not be left
defenseless; and second to provide a
body OF men trained and ready for
emergency guard duty for the protec-
tion of local public interests.
Timeliness was given TO the meet
Ing by the fact that only few hours
before. the President had signed the
congressional resolutions declaring
that a state OF war exists with the
greatest military power in the world
today II was emphasized that our
position as enemy of the strongest
armed force IN the worlds history,
involves new responsibilities for
American citizens, for. however the
great war may turn out. the United
States, as the richest and most pros
porous nation on earth will have Ia
be ready to protect herself against
any antagonist that may arise. OF
else to lose her liberty, as . free
country.
4 II looks as though a great many
of the younger men will be called up

threatens to coniiscate them ii they
don't
This British menace is something
new. A British diplomat explains that
II the Dutch ships refuse to exercise
their lawful right of sailing in def.
ance of tile Germaa decree, they will
thereby be acquicscing in the German
policy, and VIII thus be guilty OF M.
neutral action and subject TO "retalia.
tory measures on the part of Great
Britain, II would be a natural and
1ustiiiable move, he adds, to retaliate
by requisitioning the Eutch ships now
in English harbors
Such measures, It appears. would
not be adopted against the United
states, because we have not only pro
tested against the German policy, as
Holland has done, but have undertake
Ell to defend our shipping. Otherwise
iur ships, too, would be liable to selz
ure by Great Britain.
We're grateful for the assurance
But II Great Britain Is wise, she won't
adopt such policy against Holland
or any other country.

There are three main classes, he
