When the court took its noon recess
the respondent had not been sentenced
The verdict came as a surprise to
many who had followed the trial, it
being a widely held opinion that there
would be disagreement.
The case was given to the jury about
o clock yesterday afternoon and it re-
tired at about 9 last evening after re
porting its inability to agree
The respondent was in court when
the verdict was announced and al
though be was fairly well composed he
seemed somewhat nervous Some ex
ceptions have been taken by the de.

will be taken to the supreme court. The

Following the announcement Of tho
verdict the court continued with the

THEODORE ROOSEVELT.

II is hard to realize that death has
come TO Theodore Roosevelt. He was
such a vigorous person, so much alive
that he seemed almost as one for whom
death was something extremely remote

of his time has filed larger place in
the public eye, or has had larger in

though not always needed, has ever

States were the true expression of his
character. His personality breathed
force and vigor in action. His physical

Theodore Roosevelt liked contact
with actual things. He liked the
struggle, the controversy, the conflict
Of ideas, and never once did he shun
the combat His positives were ex.
tremely positive and naturally met
with their opposites. He was the cen
ter of many oppositions, delivered
many hard blows and took them. The
controversies will not follow him to
the other side of the grave. Valiantly
he fought throughout his career for
what he deemed to he the right, and if

FEDERAL HIGHWAY AID.

A letter issued by the Patrol Com.
mittee Of Vermont and circulated
among its members contains some state.
ments that, if correct, would arouse
great Indignation among the people of
Vermont. Here are the statements:
" The government has appropriated
millions Of dollars since 1916 to aid
states in road building. and Vermont
has not had cent of that money. The
government pays half the cost of roads
built according to government require
ments.
All the southern states are taking
advantage of this act and are getting
dollars worth of road for fifty cents
We are helping TO pay for these roads
and it is time we got our share. {.
The appropriations only run until 1927
so we must do it now"
The trouble with these statements is
that they are not true. Vermont has
passed a federal aid act, has prepared
several road projects in accordance
with both the federal and state laws.
has completed some of these projects
and has actually received some fed
eral money on these projects. While
the federal law provides federal appro.
priations until 1921, it further pro-
Nides that any unexpended portion of
II year s appropriation can be used in
the following year or within a reason.
able time thereafter.
The records in the offices of the high
way commissioner and the state en-
gineer's Offices show that the state
treasurer has received from the irga,
eral government $5,096 for the CO y
pletion of the Moretown- Duxbury pto.

committee that they may seriously af.

man that Vermont has not been so

Time to "Get Together"

A complex question Is before the
country, but those men on both sides
who see most clearly are beginning to
recognize, first of all, that, by some
means and in some way, distrust must
be dissipated and mutual good faith
restored. They see, further, that one
of the first steps toward this end must
be recognition Of the simple fact
that, In these days of ever-increasing
enlightenment and change, even COM
mittees and commissions have not
stood still; and that because a COM
mittee or q commission was simply a
means Of shelving an issue five years
ago, or even twelve months ago, it does
not at all follow that this is its func-
ton today. Cooperation is necessary.
Cooperation cannot be secured with
out conference. Conference cannot be
productive without good will. The
restoration Of good will, therefore, Is
the first essential, and, to this end, 1t
is very earnestly laid upon men Of
good will everywhere to "get together"
