brutal truth that the New York gang,

Socialists, forbade John Mitchell to serve
his city, state and nation as he best

into another path Of service that led di,

The man who can get away from his
own occupation these days and is willing
to devote eight or ten hours a day to
haying is the sort of volunteer who is
greatly needed in Vermont at the pres
ent time. We have heard of one Barre
clergyman who recently volunteered for
such service and we presume that his
offer was quickly snapped up, so short is
the help just now. We have heard no re-
ports on the effectiveness of the clergy
mans work but have no doubt that he
proved to be of great assistance, as hun
dreds of other men would if they could
see their way clear to go into the hay.

a hard problem, no doubt, to set the

A curious thing about most of the re.
cent severe railroad disasters in the
United States, including that at Bur
lington, is that they were not due to
trouble with track or equipment but to
collisions between trains, like that at
Nashville recently. 1t is to be inferred,
therefore, that the wrecks were not due
to Vaccination by persons who were in
sympathy with our enemies in the war.
If that is the case, it ought to be more
simple matter to reduce these disasters
TO a minimum as the railroad systems
get accustomed to the unusual demands
