Trout Fishing on Sept. 1.
bennington Banner

There has ben considerable argu
ment among local fishermen concern
ing the question whether or not it was
permissible to fish for brook trout on
the first day of September. There is
perhaps no law in the state, the phras-
ing of which is more confusing than
the law which relates to the closed sea-
son for trout fishing In Section 6375
of the laws of the state it says that a
person may be fined for possessing trout
" Between September LIST and April
18TH If that holds, then it possible
to lawfully fish on the September LIST
since that day is not included in the
closed season. In the same paragraph
of this law, however, it reads that trout
"may be taken on streams between
April 18th and September 1st.' If
this sentence holds, then it is unlaw-
full to catch trout on the first day of
September and also the 18th of April.
Reading the law as a whole. the only
deduction that is fair to make is that,
it is unlawful to fish on September LIST
it is also impossible to fine a person for
so doing.

Vermont's Tourist Season.
barre TipleS.A


Reports from the hotels and board
ing houses of Vermont to the states
publicity department that the summer
tourist season of 1919 has thus far been
the best in many years are borne out
by the casual observer in the towns and
villages, as well as on the country high
ways. Not for years, if ever has so
many automobiles from other states
been seen in Vermont as during the
present season, which, by the way, is
by no means ended, although drawing
along toward the close; and these auto
mobiles mean, of course, tourists bust
ness or summer visitor business of some
sort. Many of these people have been
entertained gratis in the homes of rel
atives or friends, but the large ma ori-
ty have been paying guests at hotels
and boarding houses from one end of
the state to the other. They have ad-
ded materially to the prosperity of the
state, and it is to be hoped that they
have received fair measure of return
for what they have spent.

vermont's Next Governor.
(Rutland News.)

Speculation on the gubernatorial posi-
bilities of 1920 increases as the weeks
pass.
A very peculiar situation exists The
ticket heard most frequently mentioned
is hook-up of Mason S. Stone and Mar
tin S. Villas and practically without any
exception the men who mention the tick
ct in the same breath express the feeling
that it is not the best Vermont can do.
Almost everyone likes Mr.. Stone person
ally and at the same time he doesn't con-
slider him the man the state needs or de-
serves for governor
The fact is that the people of this state
want a strong, constructive man in the
executive position-a man of ability, tact,
tireless energy, entire loyalty and with
the single purpose of pushing Vermont to
the fore, progressive and a business or
ganizer. They will not be satisfied with
man of just responsibility, good heart
edness, large personal acquaintance and
likeable qualities Vermonters-all OF
them worth whle-want the state ''to
be getting somewhere"
The y want program that includes
among other things definite policy OF
developing Vermont industries with Yer
mont capital, rather than developing
western industries with Vermont capital
and a system of highway betterment that
will make Vermont real estate more de
sirable and valuable, Vermont farming
and manufacturing more profitable ane
attract more automobile. tourists, which
of course means that a whole lot of other
developments will follow naturally in thu
| wake. These are the twog paramount
problems the correct solution of which
means the most for the prosperity of the
state There are other things to be done
besides, of course.
This being the situation, are Vermont
voters going to let the governorship g

to fall short of the states needs and de
serts? We can't believe it. We have tn,
