imagination be an injury to the genial
lieutenant governor or the industrious
and persistent senator.
When the Herald bestowed on the
candidates. of Messrs. Stone and Villas
the distinction of being the "barge
terminal" ticket, it was under the i'm
preston that there would be such
an immediate rush to support them
that the vexed question of party lead
ers for 1920 would be promptly dis
posed of. With Burlington and Chit
tenden county unitedly and DANGEROUSLY
supporting Senator Villas, with Wash
lngton county enthusiastically aligned
for Lieutenant Governor Stone. what
was to prevent the majority of the legis-
lature, which finally passed the barge
terminal appropriation, getting back of
both candidates and triumphantly put
ting them over?
lnJure their chances? Perish the
thought and let the ignoble wish be en-
shrouded in the darkness of ignominy
and oblivion
The News must be mistaken in sup
posing that the support of such a bene-
lieent and publlcspirited scheme as the
barge terminal could by any possibility
be considered handicap. When it was
proposed and discussed in the legisla-
ture, we were told that it was project
that would prove of inestimable bene-
fit to every shipper in the state, that
it would put Vermont on the waterways
map and make Burlington a seaport
town.
Now, the contemporary seriously
argues that it is unkind and unfair to
tag the suppositious ticket of Stone
and Villas with any such Caption; that
the barge terminal is a ''lost cause; =
that the most efficient and persistent
Hobby which ever graced the Hobbies
of the state house has passed quietly
into legislative history, "unwept, I'M
honored and unsung.''
What shadow has come over the
dreams of the Queen Citys What
change of heart has been experienced
by the Every few Burlington men -
who made the halls of legislation re-
echo with their forensic fireworks? Is
it possible that the melancholy monu-
ments of barge terminal illusion at
Plattsburgh and Port Henry have
thrown their black penumbra over Bur
hngton s dreams of greatnesse
Z We cannot believe it. 1t cannot be
so. We look to see the barge terminal
ticket sweeping everything triumphant
ly before it, with the freemen of the
state bathing for two years more in

food-light of Senator Villas s eloquence.

Barge Terminal Ticket.
{ Rutland Herald

Commenting on the serious remarks
of The Brattleboro Reformer in rela-
ton to the so-called Charge terminal
ticket, the Burlington News saws:
AS we understand it there is con-
siderable doubt as to whether there
will be any barge terminal proposition
submitted to the next legislature. A
very few Burlington men gave a
great deal of time to the proposition
and whether they care to repeat the
performance is extremely doubtful.
We assume that the name given the
purely suggestions tickets of Stone
and Villas was merely pleasant bit
of humor and to use it in any serious
effort to injure the chanches of either
man for his support of a lost cause,
which may never be resurrected. is a
little far fetched even for papers with
candidates of their own. y
Surely the contemporary is extreme
ly misguided in taking the position that
being tagged with barge terminal,
caption could by any stretch of

Why No Sugar.
(Morrisville Messenger.

lhofflSVlIle Messenger.
The papers are worrying over the al
legged sugar shortage.
1t is evidently real enough in some
places and not in others.
Whys
Very easy to answer.
Last january the parental govern
ment announced that the price would
be stabilized, viz, no more in July than
IL January, etc.
Dealers and small jobbers refused to
buy when they could last winter, as
heretofore, to save interest
About March the refners began to
write letters something like this "buy
sugar now If not we must stop max
ing 1T as our storehouses are all full,'
etc.
A few did So
Most did not.
for 10 weeks.
When the rush came. they started
up as the early berry demand quickly
emphed the warehouses.
Since then the refneries have been
kept running overtime trying to keep
up with orders.
The strike of the longshoresmen COM
pileated the situation for a while, as
1t prevented Cuban raw sugar reaching
the refneries
They are now filing June orders and
refuse to look at late orders till they
get caught up and have filed orders
now on their books.
The result is no sugar in some places
and plenty elsewhere.
All orders take their turn, large or
small export or American
This is the result of governmental
interference with the laws of trade,
supply and demand, etc.
The government can fix the price
that's all.
That is what we are told by one who
knows the inside of the case.
