TO BE DEPORTED
Italian to be Deported by Govern
ment Was Arrested in Barre II
Years Ago

MONTPELIER, June 7-Luig
Galleanni, who is to be deported by
order of the government, was arrest
ed in Barre II years ago by Sheriff F
H.. Tracy for officers from Paterson
N. j., when that place was prominent
in anarchist affairs. Galleanni had
been wanted for several years and de-
tectives had been on his trail until
he was finally located in Barre. There
Sheriff Tracy arrested him one Sun
day afternoon. He fought extradi-
ton, but was taken to Paterson and
was one of 10 prosecuted as taking
part in trouble in Paterson.
He was considered bad man at
that time and Sheriff Tracy was adj
vised to have bevy of officers &C
company him for the arrest, but he
pulled it off alone without trouble
Efforts to take photographs at the
railway station when the man was
going away for a few days afterward
, nearly caused trouble.
Galleanni was printing a paper in
Barre at the time. After going to
Paterson he was released on bail and
came back to Barre remaining for a
short time, then going away.

"Simply Awful"


German professors, vocal from the
beginning of the war, have broker
into fresh clamors over the terms Of
the treaty. "The document is simply
awful" says one of them. The learn
ed gentlemen are largely the same
company as signed the famous mani
festo defending Germany's invasion
of Belgium. The German profess
'sors lent themselves joyously to the
task of making the German people
believe what the Government wished
them to believe. They lent them
selves even more joyously to the task
of spreading German propaganda out
side of Germany. The exchange
trick was in some ways one of the
cleverest of them ALL When the
war broke out there were Germanized
American professors ready to uphold
the German cause. Doubtless the
German professors believed that
these represented American opinion.
Many were the reproaches they adj
dressed to US when it was discovered
that they were mistaken. Now af-
ter all these vain imaginings comes
the relentless truth. Germany is to
learn the full meaning of the old Ital-
ian proverb that "who breaks pays"
No wonder they think it is Simply
awful. New York Tribune.

"AVERAGE MAN" SCORES ONE
Finds Joy in Reminding Better Half
That She Is Also Victim of
New Tax.

The average family has been having
how expenditures may be cut down and
something of the average salary put
in the bank for the annual vacation.
The average man has been troubled,
too, as he puffed the long, black cigar
not financially troubled, but the re-
suit of little worrying that some day
the average woman was going to get
personal about their saving plan. 1t
came the other night
II see DEAR" she began, her sweet
ness adding to his growing suspicion,
that the state is about to put anoth-
er tax on cigars. They'll go up some
more. You know I wouldn't suggest
anything that would interfere with
your pleasure, but don't you think ci-
cars are getting too much of luxury
when we are trying to save"
The average man grunted. 1t gain
ed time; it prevented sudden complica-
tions. He had had an answer ready for
weeks for this inevitable question, but
reasoning fled just then. He had the
paper she had already read. He would
find out about this tax before he an
swered.
And then-ain't it grand and glo-
rious feeling?
Every well, my DEAR" he said, trying
to keep the neighbors from hearing the
eXultatiOn in his Tone "ThiS tax will
give us both a chance to sacrifice. I'll
quit my cigars if you'll give up powder
ing your face. You see, Sweet, the
tax is on cosmetics, too"
And the average man grinned victor
iouSly behind the newspaper.

"WHAT MIGHT HAVE BEEN"
If Paul Revere Had Only Had Tele-
phone Available in the Days
of 'Seventy-five.

Somebody in the New England tele-
phone organization has been figuring
out how easily Paul Revere could have
accomplished all the purposes of his
famous ride on the Eighteenth of
April, in 'seventy-fve," if he only had
had telephone facilities like those
available today. AS the telephone man
says, Revere would have been able to
save himself lot of hard riding. He
could have called Concord from pub
lie station in the North end, or Charles
town either, and had his friends of the
committee of public safety on the line
within eight minutes, if the operators
took as much time then as they do
now. And how much easier it would
have been to get the powder buried
and the gun carriages done away with
if the Concord folk had had their
warning eight minutes after the Ian
terms were hung aloft in the belfry
arch of the Old North steeple. Only,
if there had been telephones. there
would have been no lanterns They
would have used the phone for the
whole thing. And then of course a
famous poem would never have been
written.-Ch Christian Science Monitor.

Needed: The Full Truth

The difference between the "leak''
scandal following the charges of
Thomas L, Lawson, and the present
turmoil over the alleged presence in
New York of the complete peace
treaty lies above all in the official
position and responsibility of the
men making the charges. Senators
Lodge and Borah must know their
facts very well before taking an ac-
ton which, if not justified by later
disclosures, will place them in the
position of trying to discredit the
American peace commission and i'm
peril the treaty itself.
Ifw the section devoted to an inter
national labor bureau is the only
part of the full text varying greatly
in emphasis from the abridged YER
sion, then there is little cause for
the secrecy which the allies have
asked us to throw around the treaty.
These labor clauses have received
full airing already in the discussions
between Brockdorf- Rantzau and NJ
Clemenceau. They do not ring with
novelty. The sensation in Senator
Lodges charges thus lies less in the
treaty conditions he may have I'M
earthed than in the source of the
"leak."
So serious are the charges in this
respect that the foreign relations
committee of the Senate should lose
no time in giving Senators Lodge and
Borah full opportunity to substanti-
ate their statements and to name the
favored Recipients of the treaty text.
AS the treaty itself is now undergo
ing change, the public is interested
solely in the honor and good faith of
the American peace commission. The
reaction of the truth will spread far.
1t must be nothing less than the full
truth, strike where it may.-Boston
Herald.

Ignorant of Our Own State

The ignorance of the average Yer
monter regarding the history of his
state and especially of his town is as
founding. st. Johnsbury schools have
been paying especial attention to
state and local history in the past
year and are receiving much favor
able comment upon the idea Local
industries even have been studied in
the matter of their development, the
use and distribution of local products
and the influence these local indus
tries have upon the town. Such
matters are certainly of more vital
Importance to the average person
than to know all the inside of Ro-
man history Scarcely a community
in Vermont is lacking in material for
study that would breed interest in
and respect for the old Green Noun
tain state and might easily tend to
induce our young people to remain at
home and develop the resources at
hand.-Barton Monitor.

Glenn Curtiss Loved Mechanics.

Glenn Hammond Curtiss, one-time
messenger in Rochester, N. Y, now
"king of the air." and worth millions,
like most boys, loved things mechan-
ical. His day dreams and his dreams
at night were of mechanical con-
trivances that moved about on wheels,
and the inventions of Jules Verne.
From motorcycles to airplanes proved
a short step. Curtiss, who had been
improving on his motorcycle engine,
developed it so it could be used in
dirigible balloons. In 1909 he went
to Reims and easily defeated the crack
foreign flyers, becoming the first inter
national champion of the air. In 1910
he flew from Albany to New York, $50
miles. Having won his laures in the
air, he took up the actual work of
building planes. Today there is scarce
ly any airplane used in the United
States or Europe on which Curtiss does
not draw a royalty.

Legitimate Prey.

One day little old woman appeared
at the parsonage to be married to an
old man. The woman was bent over
so much one had to stoop to look
into her face. The bridegroom was
deaf as a post.
All the time the pastor was making
out the necessary papers the woman
talked and muttered to herself, say
ing: II don't know why that stingy
old man wants to get married. He
doesn't want to pay cook, that's all.
Make him pay well, parson. He's
worth it. He's got q farm and lots of
money. He's mean, stingy, old man

jawing, he utterly Obvious Of it all.

Animals Are Tourists.

AS refuge from inclement weather
California has long been the winter
playground for thousands, but it is
only recently that cattle and sheep
have joined the tourist ranks, accord
ing to Popular Mechanics magazine.
Naturally this winter resorting of COM
mon range stock is not specially altru-
istic, but is inspired by good business
motives. California pastures afford
more economical winter feed, and tho
sheep go through the Landing season
with far less loss. With all the de
vices of tents and lambing wagons
bad weather often takes half the in
crease in lambs. So change of climate
is really an economical measure, with
the recent prices for early lambs.

New Golf Clubs.

OF special interest to golf players is
q club made with steel instead of a
hickory shaft, shown in Popular Me-
chanics magazine, which, it is claimed,
possesses all the fieXibility Of the
wooden shaft and has additional desir-
able features. The steel shaft is hol-
low, tapers toward the lower end, and
is much smaller in diameter than one
Of hickory. This is said to give the
player additional driving power, be-
cause of reduced friction when the
club is swung through the air.

Senator Johnson

Before any one permits himself to
become too excited about the roars
and tumults of Senator Hiram John
son of California who seems to think
he is something of republican
mouthpiece, let us not fail to remem-
Der the fashion in which Johnson's
organization "knifed" Mr.. Hughes in
1916. Johnson himself had a plurali-
ty of 100000 while Wilson defeated
Hughes by 3773. Before any eastern
republican ties himself to the tail of
Johnson's kite, let these two signi-
ficant sets of figures be recalled

Yes, but Johnson was not to blame
for Hughes defeat. Place it where it
belongs, neighbor, to the pighead-
