look for splendid service in the chief
executives chair. Briefly, some of
those points are;
A farmers boy, who had to work and
who worked that he might get ahead.
Largely self-supporting through
schooling and study Of law.
As a young lawyer called to become
county clerk, which Office he filled ito
the satisfaction of all concerned for
Is years"
While young, sent TO the Vermont
legislature as town representative, be-
ing the youngest member of the as
sembly. Reelected and again re-
elected, serving on important commit
tees.
Held the administrative office of
town clerk.
For 10 years filed the Office of coun-
ty commissioner under the old prohib-
itory law, when that Office required
backbone and discernment.
Sent to the Vermont Senate, where
his legislative experience was rounded
out through efficient service, being on
some of the leading committees.
Was called to perform the duties Of
county probation officer-an office, by
the way, which means much when prop
erly attended to.
Has oftentimes been called upon to
act as guardian and as administrator
of estates--a proof of moral fitness as
we'll as business capacity.
Administered the Office of United
States collector of customs for the dis
trict of Memphremagog most accept
ably for nine years.
Was one of the prime movers in the
inauguration of the municipal govern
ment of Newport and was chosen the
first mayor of the new city, leaving the
Office with fine record, under trying
conditions, incident TO the transforma-
ton from the old village and town sys-
TEN.
Is to-day one of the leading citizens
Of Newport and has the enthusiastic
support of those who have been in a
position to size up his qualities in rela-
ton to their fitness in governor.
The above are some of the features in
Tie career of Mr.. Emery, which stamp
him not as a super Imam, as we said in
the beginning, but as a man who has
made an honorable record in whatever
position he was called upon 10 fill. Mr..
Emery has not fallen down" on the
various tasks TO which he was as
signed; he has invariably met the stu
atons squarely and has been rewarded
with measure of success in his under
tqkings. Moreover, the experience which
he has gained in the varied career as
briefly outlined would make it possible
for him to step into the governor
chair with a comprehensive working
knowledge Of the needs Of the position.
So these are some of the features
which, to our mind, make Mr. Emery
stand out among the candidates for
governor Of Vermont.

II is evident the federal farm loan has
not brought the farmer reasonable
priced necessities or labor.
News dispatches Tuesday stated that
applications for more than $50,000,0OO
farm loans are held up by the suit in
court to test the validity OF the loan
act. This indicates the demand for
cheaper money but it also suggests the
necessity of the government to secure
this immense sum from some source /;
and everyone knows the only source or
government revenue is taxation IN
some form or another. A very expen
siye government organization is also
necessary to administer such an i'm
mense amount of capital that the farm
or and the other fellow must support.
IL costs more than the farmer saves
out of il.
The Sun. Herald tuthfully says;
Because the governments tax methods
and imitation policies are forcing the
farmer to pay hundreds OF thousands
OF dollars more to keep his business
going than he saves on his government
interest rates, he is not crazy for more
government financing. Because the
Governments taxes are costing the
American people, farmers and every
body, billions of dollars year more
than the treasury is getting out of
those taxes, the farmer, the mechanic,
the butcher, the baker and the candle
stick maker are about ready to go
back To original principles, and when
thev Get hack TO stick there. '-Brattle-

Trunk Lines in Vermont.

O. S. Nichols OF Essex Junction has
come out for the state Senate on 4
one -plank platform and it is as fol-
lows:
II am convinced that the state should
take over, build and maintain the trunk
lines or so-called selected highways,
thus giving the less important high
ways and crossroads more attention
from the individual.
Ii is probably our surest way to ac-
quire really good roads in this state.
III we could or would once wake up TO
the value of maintained good roads we
would have them at any cost. Good
roads not only mean comfort in travel
ing, they mean economy in travelling
and nothing advertises a town or a
section of a state like good roads.
There is little reason talking sparsely
settled rural communities as a reason
for good road building not being praeti-
cal because to one who has lived In
Florida, the argument will have no
force. You can 60 fifty miles through
central Florida in almost any direction
and meet nothing but wild pigs and
yet be travelling over asphalt or brick
roads, because you are going from
coast to coast, which is more important
than population. Contrary to many
folks nations, Florida is a business
state and tourists are something of a
side line. Climate and good roads call
people TO Florida and scenery and good
roads would multiply our tourists by
hundreds. Meanwhile, our good roads
would be here all the time to facili
tate our business progress. Trunk lines
in Vermont would be one great step
forward for business and pleasure

Farmers opening Their Ewes.

There Is some truth in the statement
OF the sun and New York Herald that
the American farmer is beginning to
see through the financial shsms and
economic fallacies which political hum
bug has been dangling before his eyes
and is coming to realize that the cheap
money promised him from the federal
loan act is becoming a dear luxury. The
difference in interest of five and one
half per cent and six or seven per cent
ON small farm mortgages or working
capital j. not very great. On mort
gage Of $1,000 the difference between
five and a half and six per cent Is only
S25 year.
II reckless government expenditures
for political effect result in excessive
taxation and boost the prices Of every
thing else the farmer has 10 buy this
S25 saving on interest soon disappears.

some of Carranza generals are doing
to-day. Mr.. Harvey dismisses as I'M
wise the plan of "a gentleman with
large financial interests in Mexico,
who has proposed that the United
States to protect the border occupy
zone in northern Mexico and there give
the people an object lesson in protect
ing life and property and promoting
their welfare. 1t is his opinion that
there would follow request TO do for
the whole OF Mexico what had been
done for part, though Mr.. Harvey
says that the Mexicans outside the
zone would make no request of the
kind, but would harry the Americans
with guerrilla warfare.
Mr. Harvey himself can see no solu-
ton of the irrepressible problem except
in using "the machinery of the league
of nations" and entering Mexico to
pacify the country and establish re-
sponsible government with the assent
and approval of the associated powers.
"The authority which the league Of IA
lions might give" he says, "would be a
guarantee against either the appropria
ton of Mexican territory or the ex-
ploitation of Mexican resources Mr..
Harvey is optimistic about the coop
Grafton of the Mexican authorities.

his conception, if it be assumed that
the peace treaty will yet be ratified and
the covenant accepted, But before that

The news items bring US encouraging
information now and then that the
idea Of reforestration is gaining con-
vcrts. For instance, there is a man up
in northwestern Vermont, p J. Far
rail-, by name, who has this year, set
out out a thousand young trees, pines
and spruces, making total of nine thou
sund trees, which this man has set out
during the last few years. Mr.. Farrell
is to be commended for his foresightcd
ness. His work will prove Of great
value to him and will az the same
time help toward making up for the
destruction Of the forests. Greater
still will be the fierce Of his example.
Every Vermont man with acreage
enough should join in the movement to
help reforest Vermont.

Without a doubt the candidate for
governor Of Vermont, who is making
the most active personal canvass, is
Frederick H. Rabbit of Bellows Falls.
Mr. Babbitt is going about the state
and leaving a trail of personal items
like the following: Hon. Frederick II.
Babbitt of Bellows Falls, candidate for
governor at the coming primary cleo
ton, was visitor in town Tuesday"
Thus the news runs from one corner Of
tho state to the other. Mr.. Babbitt is
sparing no time and, apparently, no
personal expense in getting acquainted
with as many voters as possible,
Whether he wins the governorship or
not, the experience will be of value to
him in giving him more accurate pic
ture of real life among Vermonters.

After swinging on the pendulum be-
tween standard time and daylight saw
ing time, the trustees of the village of
Swanton finally hoped off on the
standard time side and the village goes
back to eastern standard time, thus
conforming with nearly all of Vermont.
The reason for the change was because
there was such marked opposition to
adoption of the daylight saving sys-
ten, that confusion would inevitably
result, some of the manufacturing
firms, as well as the public schools, re
fusing to adopt the new time. The
situation illustrates in more acute
form what the conditions are through
lack of conformity Of action among the
states Of New England

A Mexican Solution.

With the Mexican problem Leon A.

observers, he sees no prospect OF a set

public questions like land distribution
and education are neglected or avoided,
and so long as public men enrich them
selves at the expense of the people, as

The youths, who confessed to the
vandalism in a cemetery in Milton, are
of tender years, but not so tender but
what they should be compelled to earn
the money to pay for the damage they
did, instead of having their parents
step in and vitiate the effect of the
punishment If it should take five
years for the youngsters to earn
enough money to meet the damage,
they would have a most salutary les
son impressed upon them in so doing.
