Baker to Have ereene's Advice.
: Burlington Free Press

Despite the efforts being made IN
some directions to picture Representa-
tive Frank l.. Greene of Vermont as
playing into Hun hands because he de-
mands the protecting of American in
terests in any covenant adopted for
a league of nations, democratic leaders
III Washington as well as those who
know him at home realize he is one of
the most steadfast champions of Amer
lean aggressiyeness and ti-German-
ism in the country. Indeed with a son
enlisted for the purpose of fighting the
Germans it would be difficult to con
eeive of him taking any other position
than that which he does take for the
conserving of that for which the whole
nation fought.
If any proof of the sound senti-
ments of Representative Greene were
needed, it has been furnished by the
action of Secretary of war Baker in in
viting Mr.. Greene to accompany him on
his forthcoming visit to Paris and the
devastated regions of France and Bel
GUM. Mr. Greene has long had the ear
of Democratic members of the house
committee ON military affairs. who rec.
ognize in him thorough student OF
military proRlems as well as man who
invariably places Americanism above
politics, in dealing with military mat
tiers involving the welfare of the nation
The administration realizes that il
Representative Greene during the com
ing session of Republican congress il
will find at least one member who vii
stand for country first under any and al
cumstances. On the other hand, Mr.
Greene viii get information in Europe
at first hand that will be invaluable Il
him in the coming session of congress
Secretary Baker S invitation to Rep
resentative Greene to accompany hin
to France IS, therefore, doubly signifi
cant. Vermont is to be congratulated
upon being thus singled out from amoni
a number as having member of con

Open Primary Retained.
iSt. Adams Messenger.l


The primary law will not be amend
ed by the present legislature so that
party lines must be respected by voters
when nominations are being made. The
house passed bill providing a closed
primary, but 10 men in the senate
thought differently and the bin was
killed. Therefore things stand as they
are.
The open primary is a political
abemination. 1t permits of the doing
of the very thing that should not be
done. It breaks up party organization
and kills party responsibility. Here in
America there are two major parties.
Elections are contest between par
ties. standing for different things polit-
icallv and with candidates of their own.
What happens up to election day
should be party matter. The Demo
Gratis, for instance. ought to be left to
make their own platform and to name
their own candidates. The Republic
cans also should have complete freedom
in selecting their candidates. This
is the only sensible way that politics
can be conducted on party lines.
But the open primary opens the
doors and lets Democrats nominate Re-
publicans, and Republicans nominate
Democrats 1t makes joke of par
~ government, and as a result ii
tends to poor government. This has
been so noted elsewhere so that the
closed primary is the rule rather than
the exception.
Under the closed primary a man an
nounccs his politics and receives PR
mary ballots of the party which he
selects Then he goes in, and in Tho
preliminaries confines himself to party
action. as he ought to do, and as he
should be made to do for the good OF
the state When election day comes
he has full freedom to vote for whom
soever ne pleases, because then it ha
become something, more than part!

governor gave as his reason for vetoing
the measure the fact that tax measure
cannot originate in the senate. Unless
special dispensation is made, this
measure, which has been considered
quite important, viii have to be cast
aside until next session, the time hay
ing passed when bills not now in the
hands of the legislative craftsmen can
be introduced in the house.
Both houses disposed of a good eve
ming S work of routine business, there
being practically no discussion in the
senate and very little in the house, out
side of the Sunday permit measure.
The worklnen S compensation bill
$50, which came to the house with
a favorable report last evening, was
recommitted to the committee upon mo-
ton of Mr. Dwinell of Newport City,
who said that several people had asked
TO be heard ON this measure. H.305,
prohibiting the commitment of depend
ent children to the Vermont Industrial
school, was ordered to lie.
1t was also thought best to hold over
H.307, allowing the board of control to
discontinue insurance on state property
at their discretion and creating a sink
ing fund from which the state would
carry its own insurance. This appeared
rather radical change TO some, and
the measure was ordered to lie in order
that it might be studied.
Mr.. Cudworth of Londonderry inter
rogatcd the general committee as to
what established guaranty as the
term IS used in H.314, providing for
the marketing of net quantity of food
| in containers of packages. The bill
reads that a retailer shall not be prose
cuted under the act, if he is able to
establish guaranty. Although both
Mr.. Child of Weybridge and Mr.. Tracy
of Johnson expressed their opinions on
/ the meaning of the term, Mr.. Cudworth
was not satisfied, and on motion of Mr.
Dyer of Salisbury, the bill was ordered
to lie and be placed at the end of the
calendar for today.
At the opening of the session of the
house Mr.. Davis of Dover introduced
a resolution, which was adopted, ex
pressing deep regret at news of thf
death of James \. Dexter, representa-
tive from Wardsboro, expressing sor
row at his loss and appreciation OF
his faithful service, and extending Il
Mr.. Dexter's family sincere sympathy
in their bereavement

that Senator Villas viii introduce oil
amendment to this measure, placing TIL
preparation OF this history in the hand

authority to select historian to do thi

The Day of the Dog.
Hartford Courant.)

The Courant noted a little more than
a week ago that the Vermont legislature
had passed new dog license act and was
so much IN earnest as TO the matter as
To- provide that the act should take effect
upon its passage, Copies of it were sent
to the town clerks and penalty awaited
the man who neglected or refused to Ii
censc his dog by April l.
But something has happened in the
Green Mountain state The legislature is
still in session and has before it now a
bin to repeal the new act which repeal
is receiving aid and comfort from the
"Biattleboro Reformer' which says the
state has hone too many good dogs now,
as may be true but which lacks something
of being an argument for a small license
fee. 1t then goes on to say
Some farmers owe their lives to a faith.

dog should not be abridged.
Now we know where all the dogs o

from using the farmers as basketballs
and we hope the dogs are successful, bu
we can hardly imagine Vermont farme

As for the sheep argument, the Reform
or insists that Green Mountain farmer
do not breed sheep because there is NOR
profit in raising cattle. Nothing is SAL
about the feelings of the Vermont folk
who have registered their dogs during tn
brief life of the act only to see the pric
cut to so cents. What they will or ma
say should make interesting reading.
