NEW YORK, Aug. 21.-The more
confident feeling created Tuesday by
the speedy settlement Of the traction
strike wa completely dispelled yes
tefday by fresh misgivlngs regarding
current financial and industrial prob
lens.
Prices were firm TO strong at the
outset, hut eased all around before
midday and weakened before the close
on the absolute decentralization which
prevailed in the foreign exchange mar
ket and greater apprehension as TO
the outcome of the steel workers
strike vote.
Authorities secuted the idea of a
protraeted strike in the steel trade but
their views were not shared by trad
era, as indicated by United States
Steers decline to $685.. its lowest price
In four months and a drop OF az
points.
Reversals in other standard stocks
ranged from three. to five points, spe-
cialties sustaining losses of five 10 all
most 10, the market closing almost at
lowest levels. Sales amounted to $780,
900 shares.
Liberty bonds were fairly steady but
the generaI list, including foreign is
sues, was heavy. Total sales, par

Such an Easy Job

Most anybody can be an editor. All
the editor has to do is to sit at desk
six DAYS out of the week, four weeks
out of the month and twelve months
out of the year, and aedit" such ma
terial as this:
"Mrs. Jones of Cactus Creek let a
can opener slip one day last week and
cut herself in the pantry"
ga mischievous lad of Piketown
threw stone Tuesday and hit Mr..
Pike squarely in the alley"
"John Downing climbed on the root
of his house last week looking for a
leak, and fell, striking himself on the
porch"
"While Harold Green was escort
ing Miss Violet Wise from the church
social last Saturday night, a savage
dog attacked and bit Mr.. Green or

"Isaiah Trimmer of Running Greek

it scratched him on the veranda."
"Mr Smith, while Harvesting his

Things You Don't Say

There is one thing about the things
that you do not say--and that is, that
folks can never bring them up as evl-
dence that you said them.
We remember an instance In an Off
ice where a subordinate had written
a letter in which he promised certain
things that, had he thought he would
have known he could not deliver.
When the house took him to task for
this promise, the matter was brought
to the attention of the president of
the concern. q
And this is what the wise leader OF
that business said: Remember, my
boy, the things you do not write you
will never be accused of writing"
We have always remembered that
instance. 1t has saved many an error
If you say something that is going
10 make the world better, you are
glad that you have said it, and all the
world is glad. But you can never mea.

the bill Is to II.

the bill 15 to IL.
The bill increasing the pay of the
county clerks of Chittenden, Orleans
and Windham counties also aroused
a little heated discussion. Senator
Daniels, chairman of the committee
on state and court expenses, which
reported the bill, upheld the measure
and Senators Maurice, Belknap and
Villas supported him. Senators How
land and Ballou opposed. The bill
was advanced to third reading 10 to
5.
Senator Daniels also favored i'm
mediate adoption of the resolution
providing for an investigation of
state expenses. Senator Maurice
termed the resolution, which was in
troduced by Senator Amey of Essex,
as a most "exquisitely camoufaged"
measure and while he admired it's
purpose believed the resolution as
drawn to be too broad in its scope.
Senator Maurice asserted that such
an investigation as was authorized by
the terms of the resolution would
mean that the Legislature would have
to take a recess and wait for the COM
mittee to make it's report. Senator
Amey being absent it was voted on
motion of Senator Maurice to have
the bill ordered to lie and made a
special order for next Thursday

morning.
Senator Villas of Chittenden is au-
thor of S. So, introduced yesterday,
establishing the Vermont Teachers
Retirement System. The bill provid-
es for a retirement board consisting
of five members and creates an annu-
ity fund, allowances, ETC., and has
many provisions.
The House killed no less than nine
measures, most of them adversely re-
ported by the committee on fish and
game and passed more than that
number of miscellaneous acts, none
of which created any discussion. The
bill emitting drafted men and women
in the military and naval service of
the United States was ordered to a
third reading.

WHO is GOD, ANYHOW?
(By George Matthew Adams)

WE'LL He is Somebody. And He is always Some
where
And He is nearly always where you wouldn't be
looking for Him. For He doesn't care at all about
acclaim worship honor. His only job is to help
And SO He is always found where there is need.
What does God look like then-so that He may
be recognized? WE'LL He looks different at different
times Tho His Spirit is always the Let me IL
lustrate.
Not long ago, saw God crossing Fifth Avenue
in New York. CA lot of people believe that God has
never been in New York;. A blind man came up to
a crossing and little fellow about ten years of age,
saw and hoped right up, took the arm Of the blind
man and led him safely the street. That time,
God was little boy! And looked at Him for long
time
Then went back to my office and worked hard!
used to know man in Chicago who was always
doing things for other people. One day man who
was "down and OUT came to him and he fed him, and
gave him some new clean clothes, and got him job.
This man just gloried in doing such things So |
loved him very much. For he had done things for
me- too. He was tall, kingly looking man, with
silvered hair. saw God in him that time.
1t is said that "God moves in a mysterious way,
His wonders to perform" He does!
| remember standing beside the bed OF my
father in little Western town. He had just gone
away So was very sad. But at that moment a
man walked into the house, and without saying any
thing began to sing. have never heard anyone
sing as he did looked up, and who do you suppose
saw? Well it was God!
have seen God lots of times in the flowers and
in the fields, and walking around in the mountains.
I have seen Him in running BROOKS, and have
seen Him in the faces of the very poor.
But God doesn't wear any medals. He simply
slips in unaWares-does His work, and goes His way.
That's God!

LEGISLATURE

A stubborn fight over the bill to al
low jallers an increase of ten cents
a day for each prisoner, making the
amount seventy-five cents, the refus-
al to hastily adopt the resolution pro-
viding for an investigation of state
expenses by joint legislative COM
mittee, passage of the bill substitute
ing the secretary of state and lieu
tenant-governor for the director of
state institutions and commissioner
of agriculture and the resignation of
Senator Maurice of Lamoille from
the Senate We're the principal features
of yesterday forenoon's session of the
Senate. In addition the upper branch
of the General Assembly passed near
ly score of measures and acted on
number of others. Altogether it
was the busiest sitting of the session
but the Senators managed to adjourn
at 1890 O'Clock until Monday even
ing.
The House also handled an I'M
usually large number of bills but
failed to complete it's calendar until
afternoon.
Just before the Senate settled down
for the disposal of business Senator
Maurice announced his resignation to
take effect Immediately in order that
he might become a partner of the
Brattleboro law firm of Harvey and
Whitney, the new firm to be known
as Harvey, Maurice and Whitney,
succeeding Fits, Bacon and Eddy, all
of whom have died in recent years.
Senator Maurice said that it was
with deep regret that he rendered his
resignation from body which has
always treated him with unvarying
courtesy. Senator Daniels of Wind
ham offered a resolution which was
adopted by rising vote, expressing
appreciation of the eminent public
service which Senator Maurice had
rendered and "our esteem of his per-
sonal qualities" "Be it further re-
solved that this Senate extend to
Senator Maurice it's best wishes for
the success, prosperity and happiness
which await him in his new duties"
Lieut.. Gov. Stone at the close of the
session paid brief tribute to the
retiring Senator and asked him to the
chair, where Senator Maurice replied
briefly and thanked the Senate again.
The Senate wasted no time in de-
bate over the amended board of con-
troll bill, accepting the committee
amendments to substitute elective off
GERS for appointive ones although it
was necessary to have rising vote
before the bill was ordered to third
reading II to 9. The bill will go next
week to the House where that booy
must concur in or reject the proposal
of amendments.
The bill increasing the fees of
keepers Of jails for board and wash
ing for state prisoners, state and
town paupers, was finally passed in
concurrence after debate of nearly
an hour. Senators Morgan and Villas
led in opposition and among those
speaking in favor were Senators
Steel, Schoff, Maurice, Payne and
Rowland. Senator Morgan, who has
had a wide experience as head Of
the House of Correction and other in
stitutions, gave many figures to show
that prisoners could be kept at the
present rate of IS cents per day, say
ing that prisoners at the house of
correction were boarded on Is cents
day. The yea and nay vote passed
