WILSON'S BELATED VISIT TO BEL


GUM.
1t is a belated visit which President
Wilson is paying to Belgium and the
Belgian people, the country and the peo-
pie which suffered perhaps more severely
than any other as the result of German
aggression. Some six months ago Presi-
dent Wilson went to Europe to partici-
pate in the conferences incident TO the
drawing up Of the terms Of peace with
Germany and her allies; and at that
time an urgent invitation was extended
by the Belgian government to visit Bel
GUM and the devastated regions For
one reason and another the acceptance
of the invitation was postponed until
after the terms of the treaty had been
drafted and Belgium lost whatever
chance she had to gain added sympathy
through close, personal knowledge on
the part Of the chief executive Of the
United States with the ravsges which
Germany had perpetrated In the mean
time Wilson visited Great Britain,
France and Italy and spent a great deal
Of time in Paris, not idle, of course, but
engaged in conferences which might have
been held in allegiance while he was
spending a few days in Belgium. But
no, Wilson did not see fit to go to Bel
GUM as Belgium's official guest until
after the terms of the treaty had been
prepared and the effects superinduced by
close inspection of the Belgian ruins
would have been rendered of no avail.
The reason for Wilson's delay in visit
ing Belgium has never been divulged,
and, naturally, there is much speculation
and not little indignation that Belgium
was treated with so scant official recog-
milton

Canadian soldiers who have not seen
their homes for four or five years might
be expected to be restless at being de-
tanned in service 1000 miles away from
their friends, especially when they had
been put off time after time after being
promised transportation back to Canada.
Therefore, there is not much wonder that
the restlessness of the British colonial
troops might break out into open rioting
in England over some comparatively
trivial cause. Then, on the other hand,
there is another consideration which may
be actuating the British government in
holding these men in places of immedi-
ate call This is the consideration that
the treaty of peace has not yet been
signed and there may be urgent need of
all the troops that can be brought to-
gether hurriedly in order to carry out
the military movements planned in the
event of the failure of Germany to sign.
This is a very important matter and
should be reckoned on fully in any at
tempt made to reconcile the action of
the British government

The insults offered to the German
peace delegation when it left Paris for
Weimar bearing the allies reply to the
counter proposals OF Germany are to be
regretted, however much one may detest
these representatives of a country which
only short time ago was doing nearly
everything conceivable to bring ruin and
distress upon the countries that opposed
the mailed fist" No doubt the insults
were offered by unthinking elements
among the French people who had been
torn by the ravages Of warfare for more
tlan four years and who had been har-
raised by the uncertainties of peace for
over six months more; and the insults
did not represent the best thought in
Fraoe, or in the countries allied with
France in the great struggle and in the
perplexities of bringing about just
peace. A virtual apology for the insults
has already been offered by Premier
Clemenceau through his statement that
he regretted the episodes and should be
taken for its face value.

The placing of markers denoting prom
inent events in the history of Barre (city
and town., work carried out by the
Barre Historical society, Inc, through
the generosity of John Gale Morrison of
Cambridge, Mass, formerly of Barre, will
make an important addition to the in
teresting features Of Barre, both for To-
cal people and for our visitors. Too lit
tie attention has been paid heretofore to
the obligation of designating definitely
the locations where historic events here
abouts took place, and there was, in con.
sequence, possibility that the locations
might be lost sight of and eventually be
forgotten entirely by the incoming gen
erations. In such situation much of
the charm and attractiveness of the city
and town would have been lost These
markers, however, will serve to fix the
events, as well as the locations, in the
minds of the people. Mr. Morrison and
the Barre Historical society, Inc, have
done well in bringing about the accom-,
plshment

CURRENT COMMENT
The Same Old Human Nature.


The transactions of brokers in Wall
street in the last year Of the Civil war,
ended June 80, 1865, reached total Of
$6,000 100000, according to the New
York Tribune of Oct IA of that year.
Each of nine firms carried on business
in excess of Sl00,000,000. Gamblers
passed from one board to another until
midnight 'like pack of bowling der
wishes" 1t was mot business" said the
New York Herald; st was frenzy. The
tales of the petroleum princes had set
people crazy" The contractors of the war
and the men made rich by oil, said the
Philadelphia Ledger, were indulging in
so ostentatious display of their wealth
that it tended to unsettle all the usual
ideas about money won by industry. "a
spirit of gambling" was rife in the
land. The glitter of jewelry at the opera
created amazement. One lady displayed
enough precious stones to furnish out a
jewelers. window in Broadway"
The parallel is very curious. Recent
trading on the stock exchange has been
the greatest in its history. There have
just been more than forty-fve success
sive days in which more than a million
shares were traded in, surprising the
previous record of forty-four established
in the great speculation of 1901. The
feature Of this speculation has been the
trading in oil shares. And, according to
recent item appearing on our business
page, ''rieh oil promoters and spectators
from the oil camps of the southwest have
been heavy buyers of diamonds in re-
cent weeks, and their purchases have
been partly responsible for clearing the
local market of the extra-sized stones.

Careless Ianitor Service.

Rutland is probably no different from
a hundred other cities of its size, posi-
bly, no greater offender, as regards the
appearance of Railways leading to upper
floors OF buildings in the business sec
ton. However, there is room for inn
provement. Unswept stairs, litter Of va
rious sorts, bicycles, boxes and a dozen
and one other articles left in Railways
are not only an evidence of poor service
on the part of ianitors, but are source
of annoyance to persons who have oeca-
sion to visit the upper stories of such
buildings.
The tenants on the second floor of a
building are imposed upon if the lower
hallway is used as storage room for
lot Of truck covered with dust and
dirt. Such tenants pay rent and are
entitled to have their share of the iani-
tor service in the building occupied.
What is more annoying TO a woman in
dainty gown than TO brush against a
mud bespattered and oil-covered bicycle
in a narrow hallway as she goes to and
from her office from the rooms of her
modiste, milliner or place of luncheon
Can one imagine anything more exasper-
ating to woman than to place her silk
gloved hand on a dust-covered stair rail
Then there can reasonably be entered
protest against the janitor who sweeps
the second floor and stairs Of building
driving the dirt onto the sidewalk and
into the gutter. He may complain about
the thoughtless individual who bangs
about the lower hallway entrance and
throws cigarette and cigar stubs, pea
nut shells and other debris on the side
walk, but he should remember that I'M
less he dscontinues such an untidy
method Of disposing of the accumula-
tions of dust and dirt in Railways he
should not complain about the careless
ness Of others.--Rutland Herald.
