government in Russia; the members of
it were not classified as among the ex-
IRENE radicals, the Spartacus or bolshe-
wiki party and as long as the Ebert party
remained in power, somewhat unsatisfac-
tory as it may have been in some ways,
there was reason to hope that Germany
would find herself without the necessity
of going through the terrible period of
destructiveness which has practically
paralyzed Russia. 1t may be that Ger
many can weather the storm without
giving way to the terrorists and the
ultraradicals, If so, there will be rea-
son for satisfaction not alone in Ger
many but among the nations which sur
round the former German empire. The
good of the whole of Europe seems to de-
pend to a certain extent on the swiftness
with which stabilized government of the
democratic sort is set up in Germany.
The more often the changes are made the
less likely it win be that stable govern
ment is promptly given to the people of
that nation.

Admiral Beatty of the British navy
took it out in sarcasm on the German
navy what he failed to land in an actua!
blow through the failure of the German
fleet to come out of its hole to give Beat
ty a chance. The words which Beatty
used in describing the appearance of the
German warships trailing into British
harbor were calculated to make the Ger
mans writhe while at the same time they
were pandering to the exultant spirits of
the British. They were not just the
words which might have been expected
of a great leader.

Though it is scarcely possible that
President Wilson will meet with such a
cordial reception as France accorded him,
President Wilson will be sure to receive
hearty welcome on the occasion of his
visit to London next week. The British
people have not been drawn so closely to
the Americans as the French but they
realize what the United States has done
to aid them in securing a victorious
peace; and, besides that, English and
Americans are the most closely related
of any peoples of the earth in language,
habits and ideals. President Wilson's
visit to London ought to do great deal
of good in cementing the relations still
more closely.

THE NEW TROUBLE IN GERMANY.
If, as reported from Paris, the Ebert
government in Germany has resigned aft
pr being in power since Nov. -, there
well may be fear that reign of terror
such as existed in Russia after the fall of
the first revolutionary government under
Kerensky is in prospect for the once
proud Germany. If the Kerensky gov
rnment in Russia could have held on and
maintained power for six months longer
while in the meantime it had displayed
real efficiency in the restoration of the
fife of the nation it is probable it would
lave been succeeded by another govern
nent of moderate reyolutionists rather
han by the terrorists who have had the
rast domain in their grasp ever since the
kerensky regime went out of existence.
The Ebert government in Germany may
Ie likened somewhat to the Kerensky

The reported shooting to death of
Lieut.. Coheeny, connected with the
American air service, who was a prison
er of Germany at Stralsund, must be
thoroughly Investigated SO that the
truth of the matter may be revealed.
The reported shooting took place nearly
q month after the armistice was signed
and the American prisoners ought to
have been released by that time. If the
facts in the case are found to be as re.
ported, Germany must be made to make
whatever amends can be made for such
an act of Hunnishness.

Cities and towns of Vermont should
begin to make allowances for the 20-eent
state tax which is likely to be asked dur
ing the years 1919 and 1920. The state
budget committee estimates that as large
a tax as that will be necessary and still
the deficit of the state will not be quite
covered. Municipal corporations which
are already overburdened to carry on
their own governments win be hard put
to it during the two succeeding years to
keep their heads above the financial flood

Three of the principal directors of the

 A fire. probably caused by a piece of metal striking the saw, broke out in one of the stands at the kimpel gin about three clock last Friday after noon, and before the blaze could be eX- tinguished. destroyed the stand and most of bale of cotton. But for the fact that it is fire proof and fitted with modern equipment, the entire gin would doubtless have been destroyed.
 C. F.. Singleton and W. C. Bowden this week donated the stock of cotton samples which they had on hand to the Red Cross fund for purchasing yarn. The samples were sold for S27 25. which amount enables the committee to purchase sufficient yarn to make enough sweaters and socks to be worth more than twice that much money.
