rushed up to greet him. He was soon
overwhelmed with friendly shouts OF

here. Small boys and grown ones

A number of editorial quotations
about Vermont roads will be found in
this issue, and the writer wants to
add his word to the testimony of the
others and say that for pleasure give
US good gravel roads for touring pur-
poses. When hard surface roads are
IN perfect condition they are a thing
of beauty, but a neglected tarvia or
any hard surface road is worse than
a neglected gravel road, and neglect
ed" roads appears to be the greatest
trouble with Vermont highways.
Hundreds of miles of Vermont roads
would be very materially improved if
simply dragged after the rains, the
man doing the dragging stoppiGo
here and there to fill a depression,
fix the approach to bridges and get
out an occasional stone. There are
many places, of course, where foun-
dation work is needed, such as grad
ing, draining, widening, and straight
ening, and this work is being well
done by degrees but neglect of the
surface is a common fault. The gen
eral cry of those who travel Vermont
roads is, use the drag"

Prefers Gravel to Other Varieties

The Evening CALIFORNIAN hits a sub
ject in an editorial on "The Roads
Question" copied in this issue, which
we believe the state of Vermont
should thoroughly experiment with
before adopting any particular kind
Of permanent highway, and that is
the gravel-surfaced highway. By
"gravel surfaced" we do not mean the
gravel dumped on any old roadbed
where the action of our heavy frosts
viii upset the whole thing every
spring, but upon one prepared with
cobble or crushed stone and rolled
before gravel IS put on. Our expert
ence on a long trip over the tarvia.
cement and 81 varieties of roads in
New York state IS that after we
came across from Chazy 10 the Is
lands, the difference was very notice
able The steady vibration on the
worn roads was eliminated OF the
smooth surfaced gravel road and we
say give Us q smooth gravel road
every time IT preference to the other.

Vermont seems to bc having a. cpl
demic of murders and murderous
attempts, as shown by the court
dockets of the state. Washington
county has two such cases on hand,
just disposed of a murder case and
Orleans county had two such cases
at its last term of court. There are
undoubtedly other cases of the kind
on the dockets of the state which do
not come to the mind of the writer at
this time Has anyone an answer for
this state of affairs, or did it just
happen this way?

by news item which tells of the To-
eating in Springfield, Mass, of the
owner of the laundry mark which was

an early in May. Clues were so few
that progress on the case has appear

Slams Orleans Roads.

There are both good and bad roads
in Vermont. This is true in Or
/ leans county, as we know from ex-
[ perience. West Of this city, North
Troy and Lowell way, the roads for
the greater part are in fine shape.
Derby, Derby Line and Holland way
they are excellent. There are good
roads through Charleston, WiIlough-
by lake and Island Pond way. Of
course, IN some cases, the result Of
the recent rains, there are stretches
with tire ruts that should be filed
. IN or rolled down a little quicker than
/ they are. This is where the road
man with his scraper, whom we have
advocated many times, could be used
to advantage.
The worst stretch of road we have
seen IN this county, and without any
excuse for it, only through negli-
gence, is the approach to Orleans, via
lrasburg, and inside the corporation
limits. For such a hustling and pro-
gresslve town as Orleans, this seems
strange; but it is true nevertheless.
In the early spring there was an ex-
cuse, but there is none up to the
middle of June. Poor approaches to
any town are bad advertisers for it,
and yet, IN too many instances it is
where the roads are worst
We cite a peculiar instance in con-
nectlon with the approaches to Or
leans. In early spring, the results of
broken press, we hired an auto
truck Tor three trips to Barton. In
eacn case It was mired in the an
croacnes TO Orleans. In each case the
truck had TO be pulled out. This was
not strange, nor was it strange there
should be deep mud at that time
" nat was strange, in one instance. at
least, was the fact that the men who
the road, and whose dl1tv il +
was to repair il, asked q dollar and q
nan Tor pulling the truck out. This
ana Two other payments, we made. +
should al least fill the principal bio
Role that still exists in that road.
OF course, allowances must be made +
tor recent rains, but 1t IS a fact that
some districts take more interest in
-neIr highways than others and where
-1ey 90 they should receive the praise.
1 l ne back roads appropriations are
lolhg much good where they are tax
- ~ advantage Of, as is the case in
,1ouand- Doubtless other towns are Il
iolhg the same thing. We have vet
o believe though that the majority If
ne principal roads in Vermont arc
deserving OF the criticism printed at
ne mead Of this article. At the same
,Ime there Is doubtless a grand
nance for improvement.-Na zVnor+

Canadian Soldiers Detained.

Canadian soldiers who have not
seen their homes for four or five
years might be expected to be rest
less at being detained in service 1000
miles away from their friends, es-
pecially 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 immediate
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
together hurriedly in order to carry
out the military movements planned
in the event of the failure of Ger
many to sign. This is a very impor-
tant matter and should be reckoned
on fully in any attempt made to rec
oncile the action of the British gov
ernment.-Barre Times.
