the state while auditor of accounts,
the conduct of the ease by Superior
Judge Fred NJ Butler of Rutland and
the jury, when the case finally came
up, IS cause for just pride upon the
part of justieeloving and equality-lo low !
ing Vermonters. The distinguished re-
spondent and his equally distinguished
counsel were treated no differently
than would have been an ordinary la
boring man and the most humble at
torneys under the same circumstances.
Eminent fairness and impartiality seem
to have characterized the trial. Bot
something is radically wrong when
nearly a year and half elapses before
the commission of a serious crime OF
series of crimes comes up for trial and
| then three months more delay is pos.
sible before sentence is pronounced up
on the guilty. All this constitutes 8
nursery of unrest, class hatred and
| bolshevism. Some of the lead need.

Accounts of the influenza situation
in the town of Groton which stated
that it was one of extreme seriousness
are now said TO have been greatly ex-
aggerated. The "pitiful" cases which
have been reported are said to be I'M
known TO Groton residents. While
many are i'll and houses have been quar-
antined the town has not been placed
under such restrictions and medical aid
and nurses have been secured where
needed. This is something to beware
of in any sort of epidemic. Exagger-
ated reports are apt to crop out and
they help to terrify the rest of the
country and make the situation even
more difficult for the place which is the
subject of such rumors. Precaution
and preparedness are necessary at such
times but fear is said to be real fac
tor in the increase of epidemics.

THE DEMOCRATIC PLATFORM

The Democrats seem to have taken
the lead in outlining a platform or
which they viii go before the public
in the Presidential campaign. Two
prominent Democrats. each of the older
ranks, have made public outlines of a
platform. Vice President Marshall, al
legged to be slated to write the party
platform at San Francisco, presents one
and w. ]. Bryan the other. The two
men agree that there should be repres-
sion Of the profiteer but have little else
in common in their declarations Mr..
Marshall expresses several platitudes
about the enforcement of law and equal
and exact justice and similar things.
The gist of things he demands is:
Demanding that the states discharge
the duties of local self government
resisting the usurpations Of the gener-
al government; removing corrupt and
biased judges. but standing always for
obedience TO the DEGREES of court and to
constituted authority; insisting that
the legislative branch of the govern.
ment shall be responsible for the dis
charge of its duty, and serving notice
upon it that it cannot skulk behind an
alleged interference upon the part OF
the executive branch regulating strict.
ly every public utility.
Mr.. Bryan would endorse national
prohibition and public ownership and
oppose enforced military training. He
adds:
[ think it safe to say the party vii
declare against a return to a protective
tariff, and will endorse the income tax
This plank probably will be accom-
panied by q declaration against a re
duction of the tax on big incomes with
out corresponding reduction in small
incomes.
The two men have outlined a com
plete program but there is bound to b,
some conflict over national prohibition
and the supremacy of state govern
ments. When it is remembered tha
the present administration has ignored
state and local governments more thar
any other and that the present Presi
dent has more completely dominate,
| the legislative branch of the govern
ment than any other, people doubles
will recall that political platforms ar
not made to stand on but simply t,
get into power on

The Home of Pure Food.
BARRE Times.)

The Vermont plant of the Nestle S
Food company at Enosburg Falls scores
the highest test in milk quality for
month of December. Inasmuch as
there are y other plants of the com
pany this record speaks well of the
advantages to be gained in Vermont
for the conduct of such an industry
In fact, the conditions are so good
in Vermont that industries depending
upon food products like milk could
scarcely find better location for man
ufaeturing purposes That is undoubt-
edly one reason why candy making
concerns are turning their attention to
Vermont as a field for operation. Yer
mont, the home of pure food, offers
splendid opportunities.

Should Not Be Caught Mapping
Barre Times.l


In settling up the town accounts for
the past year, the officials of the town
of Bethel found that they were just
about $1,000 short between income and
expenditures, but they readily ac-
counted for that because in making
up their estimates for the year they
allowed only 20-cent state tax
whereas the legislature had called for
a 40-cent tax. This partial dereliction
was not so bad, however, as the com
plete ignoring of the direct state tax
in some towns SO that the towns had
to borrow the amount required by the
state of the towns. No towns should
be caught mapping on the matter this
year; they should all bear in mind that
the. state demands another Accent tax
in order to make up for some of the
war expenditures. After the sitting OF
another Legislature it may be possible
to secure a degree of relief from that
high rate of state tax. In order I'd
make that degree of relief possible ii
will be necessary for the towns to
elect representatives who are bent on
cutting down the appropriations to the
essential things.

vermont's Undeveloped Wealth.
(Holyoke Transcript.

An idea of the undeveloped wealth
of New England in timber may be
gained from statement in the last
number of the Waterbury (Vt) Rec
ord, paper published in the heart
of the Green Mountains. The Record
says that manufacturer of hardwood
lumber, near Waterbury was 2 caught =
last year with a considerable quantity
of hardwood flooring on his hands,
which he had been trying to dispose of.
He may have regarded the incident at
this time as a misfortune, but he has
just sold this particular lot of flooring
at a total advance of 1000 above
what he was willing to sell it for last
year-the price of hardwood flooring
having advanced in the meantime to
$50 a thousand The same grade of
flooring sold at $50 thousand only
a few years ago, and there had been
an advance from $40 a thousand to $50
within 10 days. Here, therefore, there
was an actual fortune, at least for
a Vermont lumberman or sawyer, in
the increase in value of one lot of
hardwood flooring alone, in one year 5
time.

A menu which came from a Chicago
restaurant in the year 1895 has come
to our attention and the prices given
are somewhat astonishing Insthese days.
The card announces to its patrons that
a meal win be served consisting of a
choice of meat, vegetable, bread and
butter and hot or cold drink for the
sum of ten cents. All extras are listed
at five cents each. If a man had such
a bin of fare placed before him now
he would probably pass away from
sheer establishment before he could
place his order.
