Vermont Justice Moves Swiftly

The willingness of Superior Judge
Frank L. Fish to come here and hold a
term of court outside of the regular time
shows that the Vermont bench favors
speedy justice. 1t was distinct service
for the benefit of the public and, SO far
as we recall, the quickest dealing of JUS
tice for horrible crime in the history of
the state. Franklin county is acting Just
as promptly in its murder case, and it
looks as though Vermont justice is swift
enough to deal with the most shocking
criminal cases.-Caledonian.

Vermont's Young Men
BARRE Times)

A publicity car for the Indian lands in
Oklahoma is now in Vermont for the pur.
pose of exploiting the attractions of that
region and, no doubt, with the expecta.
ton of drawing some Vermont people
westward. Ever since the late 4O's Yer.
mont has been bled white until it's growth
has been stunted more than that of any
other state in the eastern part of the
country. 1t would be better if the efforts
of the publicity agents of western lands
should be directed to the large centers OF
population like New York and Boston
where there are thousands of people
waiting for just such an opportunity az
new land affords.

SWEDEN PAYS /
FOR INTRIGUE
Expose Expected to Transfer
Government Power
A SOCIALIST FOR Premier

Only Obstacle to Peace-Washing-
ton Officials Pleased at Reported
Victory of Liberals and Socialists
Washington, Sept. 1S.-First re-
ports of the elections in Sweden re-
ceived here state that the Liberals
| and Social Democrats have regis
tered tremendous gains and are like
ly to control the government.
This news was receifed with graf
ification in official circles here, mas
much as a reputation of the present
elevation of the opposition to power,
would be interpreted as the direct re-
suit Of Secretary Lansings revela-
tions of the duplicity and unneutraI
conduct of the existing government in
aiding the spy work of Germany in!
American republics.
There is a stSong possibility, and
some observers say probability, that
Hjalmar Branting, the Swedish So
cialist leader, will become premier.
The question appears now to be
whether the new cabinet will be
coalition one, composed of Social
Democrats and Liberals, or entirely
Social Democratic ministry. 1t is
not considered in the least likely that
the king would maintain the present
cabinet If the country voiced a re-
pudiation of 1t.
The personality of Branting is at
tracing attention here because of the
influence he will have, not only in
Sweden but in all Scandinavia and
in Holland, too, II he becomes pre-.
mier
He Is the editor Of the SocialDem-
ocrate, the leading organ of the
Swedish labor party. and some tims
ago he declared the Kaiser was tho
only obstacle to peace. Hugo VAL
lentin, in the Fortnightly Review,
says of him:
His fine character, his undoubte6
honesty of purpose, his great sacri-
fees for the cause, have won him
the confidence, loyalty and one might.
almost say the worship of the rank
and file In his own party, but those
qualities, combined with a personal
charm, comparable with that DOS
sessed by a famous English polit1-
clan, have also gained for him the
respect and admiration of many who
do not share his political and social
opinions"

CONFIDENT OF VICTORY

Stockholm, March 27 (via London
6:l5 a. m.)-Dr. Albert O. w Suede
KUN, one of the best known leaders
Of the majority socialists in the reich
stag, in an interview here with the
correspondent of the Associated Press
said that whoever thought the sub
marine war was going to bring Eng
land to starvation in six months was
deceivng himself. He added how.
ever, that such result was not nee
essary for German victory, which he
declared was certain, with indemnity.
DR., Suedekum said he was con.
vinced that England hitherto had
been sending only enough troops to
the continent to keep her allies con-
tented, but that now it was necessary
for her to change her course. He de-
clmcd to hazard a prediction on the
result of the possible participation of
America in the war on the side of the
entente, but added
Anyhow, America has been vir-
tually in the war practically since the
beginning. If it had not been for
American ammunition the war would
have ended in 1915"
