'Wo-hish" or "Whoa-heist"

This is the latest from the ST. Johns
bury Caledonian on the method OF driv
lug oxen:-
Editor Belknap of the Bellows Falls
Times says we are wrong in using the
word "Wo- hish" in OK teaming, and
that the proper word is "Whoa-heist."
We do not know how much Editor Bel
KNAPP has driven an OK team but do know
that the OK is not used to such a classical
term as "Whoa-heiist." We see no way
of settling this matter except by trail
on a yoke of oxen. Therefore we propose
that if Editor Belknap, who is president
of the Vermont Press Association, will
appoint committee to have pair of
oxen at the annual meeting of the as
ISOLATION we will try .'Wo-hish" and let
Editor Belknap try "Whoa-heist" on the
oxen and let them show the spectators
which is the correct word tor oven.
Brer. Bigelow knows thoroughly the
business of driving oxen correctly and it
is not we'll to dispute him.

Don't Knock the Railroads
Mortified News I

While everybody is barking at the rail
roads on account of the schedules il
force, and The News is just as bad as any
of them, and we still think our case
should have attention, the country is
getting it's just deserts. After the
Regulators had got through with the
railroads of the country, the victims
tried, quartered, and sentenced, the same
regulators" kept after the roads, al
lowed all kinds of raisers in railroad
workers, pay, then proceeded to refuse a
similar raise in railroad freight rates.
This all brought about a condition of
things to be expected in any business.
No new capital available for increased
rolling stock, or any other improvement
going for the efficiency of railroad ser
vice. All this was mighty popular in
certain circles, particularly at Washing
ton. Now the train service of the entire
county is being curtailed, everybody
made mad clear through and kicking at
anybody in sight who even looks at a
railroad time table. These Regulators,
have done a splendid piece of construc-
ton work. The pity of il is they don't
have to sugar for it. The ones at Wash
ingtOn who are responsible for belping
along state of affairs bad enough al
ready should be sent to the rock pile.

A Good Suggestion From
Gov. Graham

Gov. Graham has made the suggestion
in letter to President Wilson that men
of national reputation address the troops
before going abroad to acquaint them
with the reasons why America is in the
war. The letter follows:
Montpelier, July q, 1917.
President Woodrow Wilson,
Washington, D. G.
Dear Mr.. President:
Permit me to suggest to you that,
when the troops have been brought to-
gether in the several camps, men of ma
tional reputation be invited to address
them and put before them clearly and
concisely the principles for which we are
contendipg in this war, so that these men
before going abroad, may know correctly
Just what the issue is. 1t seems to me
that having this issue stated to them by
speakers whose judgment they must re-
spect will be a great stimulus and encour-
agement to the patriotic spirit which our
soldiers have manifested in their response
to the call of The country.
Respectfully yours,
HORACE F. GRAHAM,
Governor.
The final word to each state regarding
the draft is: "Allow few exemptions. Be
strict and investigate each case carefully"
Provost Marshal General Crowder set
this example himself when he refused ex-
emption claims for six of his civilian en-
ployees-men who had aided him in pre-
pairing for the draft and who were them
selves drafted for the first call. General
Crowder took this action as an example
for chiefs of other government divisions.

Bad for the University

Apparently the Appelman episode does
not down. Here are Governor Graham
and Redfield Proctor, trustees of the Uni.
versity of Vermont, who intimate broad
ly that they were unaware that the mat
ter was coming mp before the board when
it did and if they had been there would
have voted not to retain the German on
the faculty. Their votes would have
turned the scale. The letters of these
gentlemen, published in the daily press
almost suggest the idea that the Appel.
man faction took snap judgment in the
matter. This controversy is especially
unfortunate as it has introduced dissen-
ton among the trustees, faculty, students
