The Legislature of 1919

ment? II il favors nationwide pro-
| hibition, if it believes that a sober
nation is the best sort of nation from
every point of view, if it wants Yer
/ mont to be one Of the thirty-six
states to declare for the elimination
! of the ardent for beverage pur-
poses" it viii ratify.
VIII it repeal the primary election
law? Action of that sort is GER
tainly entitled TO it's most serious con-
sideration, for up to date nothing has
been discovered, either by candidates
or voters, that commends the primary
as the least expensive, least eompli-
Gated, least perplexing and most eff
fective method of nomination or cleo
ton.
Win it take special pains to make
sure that, hereafter, in the due course
of the administration Of state affairs
ttilCl CllC Ll6LIlaSISCiO4l VI StGtLS,
accounts of officials are audited reg
ularly and thoroughly, and that the
huniliating situation which the state
has recently been called TO face shall
not be duplicated? That duty GER
tainly devolvcs upon it.
Win it be an economical lcgisla-
turc, as the political advertisers have
invited it to be? There will be not
the slightess excuse for parsimonious
dealing with state needs, or with APP
peals which have in them the element
of common sense and which promise
practically beneficial results. There
will be not the slightest excuse for
extravaganza along any line of state
progress. A sensibly chosen middle
ground is the highway along which
the people will expect the legislature
to travel, dealing with every expense
proposition fairly and on a business
basis.
viii it be a pliable legislature and
allow itself to be led, or will it
strike it's own pace and keep it?
Win it be at all impressed with the
desirability of a prompt getting down
to business, and sohrt session? Or
will it get so busy with the trivial
details of legislation that it must
needs go back to Montpelier after il
has done its duty at March meetin'?
The answers to these questions will
necessarily be deferred. They viii
be given by the senators and repre-
sentatives themselves as the days of
the session go BY. There is not a
little important work to be done, and
the constituencies which have made
it possible for these gentlemen to
take seats in the upper or lower
branch of the legislature look for re-
suits worth while when the session
shall have ended.-Ludlow Tribune

Women Forced Out

II was not chivalrous of the twen-
ty-four hundred rnotormen and con-
ductorsin Cleveland to strike for the
purposef of compelling the company
to dismiss one hundred and fifty
women conductors, but after three
days of complete tie-up the company
agreed to dismiss them by March l.,
and service Was resumed. The three
months, delay was asked by the presi-
dent of the company in order that he
might find other positions for the
women, which he promised to do.

many TO be expected in the period of
