(St. Adams Mcsscngcr.o

The Sanford A. Daniels, of Brattle-
boro, who wears the senatorial toga by
virtue of appointment by Governor Ora
ham to fill the vacancy caused by the
death of Senator Eddy was a resident
of st. Adams when he was a youngster,
which, after all, was not so many years
ago, for the new senator is still at that
age where it is to be expected that he
may have as many years before him as
he has already lived. AS a youth the
new senator worked in a local store
for only few cents more week than
his board bill came to. But he learned
some lessons then which he has put
to most excellent advantage since, and
which account in no little measure for
the prominence into which he has come
in state affairs. He learned to rely
on himself, he learned the value of
energy rightly directed. Senator Dan.
iels for several years has been real
factor in Republican politics and state
affairs. He was appointed member
of the industrial accident board by
Governor Gates, who held him IN high
esteem. When, i'll the course of the
enacting of Governor Graham S recon-
mendations of consolidation into leg
islation this board was legislated out
of Office, the chief executive found in
Mr.. Daniels the right kind of man
to sit in the senate. Think what that
means. A smaller man than Mr.. Dan
iels would have been filed with wrath
against the chief executive who had
legislated him out of job. Not so
with the new senator. lie WASH
thinking much of himself as he was
of what would be best for the state of
Vermont. That is the type of man
who is worthy of being honored in this
way. Senators Daniels will bring to
the upper branch of the Legislature an
element Of real value.

GERMANS WITHDRAWING.
Have Fallen Back on a Big Front
British and French Capture 366
sTowns and Villages.

AThe feature of the European war in
the past few days has been the retreat
of the Germans on front of many
miles. They have been closely fol
lowed by the French and British, who
have captured 366 towns and villages
which the Germans have held since
early in the war. There were indiea-
tions yesterday that the Germans
would make stand at La Fere and
that one of the greatest battles of the
war was imminent. The Teutons have
laid waste large part of the country
while in retreat. 1t is claimed that the
German change is for stragetic reasons
and that the men withdrawn, number
ing 100000, will be- used more effective
ly at other points. One rumor is to
the effect that the Germans are con
templating another drive to reach Ca
lais on the French coast.
