Paintings of the Grout Family

Z Major Aaron Grout of Newport
city, has been in Montpelier looking
after the hanging of two oil paintings
in the state house. The first was that
of w. w. Grout, who was IS years a
member of Congress from Vermont,
having been elected from Barton and
who died in ST. Johnsbury on the
Circuit farm some years ago. This was
hung at the right of the entrance to
the house of representatives. The 9th
er was the painting of josiah Grou1,
Major CIRCUITS father, who was gov
ernor from 1896 to 1898. This was
hung in the executive chamber, some
of the other paintings being changed
about to accommodate this large one.
Both are fine pieces of work done by
the Artist Carbee. of Boston, who
painted Capt. Charles E. Clark and
other portraits in the state house.

There is. little likelihood of many
excursions on the lake this summer
unless the government changes it's
regulations regarding the charge for
mileage At the present time the
Champlain Transportation Co. is
compelled to charge rate Of two
cents, per mile with the war tax addi-
tional. This means that an excursion
to Fort Frederick would cost 80
cents in addition to the war tax. In
the opinion of many, this would mean
a prohibitive price. In instances
such as that of the st. Joseph's or
phanage the annual boat ride is an
event in the lives of the children but
such an excursion would not be pos
sible this year under the present con-
ditions.

BIG NEWS IN YESTERDAYS DlSfAICnH1

rho h,g features of yesterdays news with refer ence to the threatened coal strike is the iact tn the Senate and House of Representatives orgettihs potics for the time being at least. passed resolu- lions pledgng Congressional support to the Admin fsration in its protect the Nation Tn the present emergency, the action Of the Presloeht Ill fixing price of coal to prevent profleerlng' the action of the Farmers National Congress in taking Strong ground against strikers, and the issuance of an injunction by United States District Judge An derson Indianapolis appointee of the late Pres- Aent Roosevelt restraining the officials of the Unit ed Mine Workers of America from putting into ef- feet the strike order, setting the time for hearing on November Sth Previously the Administration had taken action to guarantee equitable dstribu' tion of the product of the coal mines.
 This that the whole force of the Govern ment Executive and Congressional, is united to protect the American people from suffering because of the highhanded action of radical labor leaders who ordered 8 strike at the beginning of winter without taking of the employees, and causing the repudiaion of contracts in various sections or the country between coal operators and workers which provided working conditions and wage sched- ules to run until April.
 The action of the Farmers Convention is evil dence that public sentiment is with the Government in its undertaking to protect the people if. indeed any further evidence than has been pouring in on Congress for days needed
 With the Government in all its branches, the representatives of the people the United States, united, jrresEective of party and supported by al most uDAnimOQs public opinion, there is question as what wiltibethe outcome of the strike It will fail, as4tEs1ought fail
 ThSk Government will protect those workngmen who YbhlAr atheE work and draw pay than to strike and hkfzes Women and schildren, and it will protect property Under such circumstances, the great body of conscientious workingmen of the country will not long fly in the face Of righteous public sentiment and follow those who endeavorng to freeze and starve the people into changing their government They will return work
 The whole situation, the support the Government IS receiving, everything, proves that America is awake, that Americans recognize attempted revolu- uon when they it, and that they have determined that rule by "a radical socialist minority is not go ing to be substituted for rule by the majority through strikes or other systems in force, as was tried by the Sparticans in Germany and by the few in Great Britain. The United States will remain a demo- cratic Republic and the majority will rule

GO TO WORK OR STAY AT WORK ;. AND SAVE

President Alexander of the National Bank of Commerce of New York says the remedy for the worlds ills is to get nearly all the people on earth possible to work as many full days as DOS sible and to save their money.

forming his duty from day to day. Somebody mas said that the greatest hero is not the man to whom comes the opportunity to do something so dramatic in it's nature that it attracts the attention ot many hut rather the man who in the routine and num- drum of his daily life does his duty to his country, his community, his family, his associates, his 1ello" men, It is much the more difficult task
 Those men whose routine and humdrum 1t IS 10 enforce the laws the people have made for thelr government are constantly exposed to the caprices of the mad and the vengeance of the vicious. They know it. and they face 1t with calmness if they are heroes refusing permit it to deter them from do- ing their duty.
 And it is well to bear in mind that constant un- warranted criticism and nagging of those who are serving the public often suggests crime to the mad and that criminals frequently to extremes in crime if they think they have respectable backing or sym pathy.
