Taking Pictures of Eliza

There is nothing new under the
SUM- not even the sun that shines on
the world of motion pictures. In an
account of the taking of pictures near
White River Junction by the D. w.
Griffith company, the Landmark tells
of the selection of location" on the
White River and the cutting out of q
section of ice so that it would float
down the river:
AT the opportune time Miss Lillian
Gish walked over the floating cakes
and as she neared the shore she fell

thickness, the hero of the prospective

Braving all dangers he finally reached

her his arms he worked his way to

Those of US who have surviving
memories OF Uncie Toms Cabin VIII
recall similar scene of thrill and

the Ohio river, with the bloodhounds,
human and canine, hot upon her trail.

frederick II. Babbitt's gubernator-
al platform is just about the kind OF
a plato. m one would expect from a
man of his experience in business and
legislative affairs 1t contains no ex-
travagant promises or impractical
theories, but shows beyond doubt
that Mr.. Rabbit has definite i<laNas
to the needs of Vermont and firm con
victions as to how they should be met.
BY way OF introduction he says that
it represents his honest, earnest
Judgment" and no one who reads it
carefully can doubt the truth of this
assertion.
Naturally, he declares for an adj
ministration conducted on business
principles, but in espousing the popu-
lar economy plank he wisely modities
lit in such way as to leave him free
to advocate appropriations and ex-
penditures Consistent with program
of progress" He bleives that agri-
cultural and industrial development
are essential to each other and shoul
go hand in hand and is evidently CON
v'nced that Vermont's industrial pos
sibilities were never so great as they
are today.
On the subject of roads he comes
out squarely for an extension OF the
present patrol system but recognizes
that the trunk-line highways are not
the only lines of Importance in YER
mont. He believes the small towns
should be relieved of the expense of
maintaining these trunk lines so that
they may spend their share of state
highway funds in the upkeep and i'm
provement of the so-caGed town
reads.
Mr. Babbitt is not only in favor o.
a Square deal for labor" like one of
his competitors. but is for a square
deal for everybody without dist ne
ton. incidentally he believes that an
enlargement of the scope of the state
board of arbitration would prove help
full in the 1nicable adjustment Of dis
putes between employer and en-
ployec.
The small town problem, he be
lieyes, could be solved by some plan
by which the state would conduct the
schools and maintain the ghways OF
towns unable to meet these func-
lions, but he would not dep. i've these
towns Of representation, He is for
higher salaries for teachers, liberal
tax laws with view to encouraging
the investment of capital in the state
full recognition of world war yeter-
ans and the elimination Of such state
commissions as have shown thsm5elv-
es to be useless.
On the much agitated. prohibition
question-which in fact has ceased to
be an issue so far as the COVE nship
is concerned-Mr. Rabbit comas out
squarely for recognition of the fact
that constitutional prohibition exists
and must be enforced, but at the same
time he recognizes the widespread be-
lief that the Volstead enforcement act
is too severe in many of its interpre-
tations.
Mr.. Babbitt. we believe wisely, has

Frank Aean's Candidacy.

Frank w Agan OF Ludlow has en-
tered the race for the nomination for
governor against C. S. Emery of New
port, James Hardness of Springfield,
and F. H, Babbitt of Bellows Falls.
Frank Agan was running mate of
Clements in the famous local option
fight of 1902 and perhaps holds many
OF the present governors views It is
fairly well known that Agans senti-
ments are in opposition to prohibition
in general and to the present enforce
ment act in particular. Undoubtedly
Mr.. Agan interprets the March meeting
vote which in theory put more towns
in Vermont than ever before into the
wet column, as protest in this state
against the present prohibition legis-
lation. How far Mr. Agan can get on
this issue is a question to be settled
later, but this paper believes the mum
Der of voters who will support a wet"
gubernatorial candidate, as such, are
comparatively few, and hat unless Mr..
Agan can give the voters something
more tangible, definite and construc-
tive than a mere campaign of protest
against prohibition and its enforce
men, his campaign will fall'fat. Since
Mr.. Babbitt holds a similar view to
hat of Mr.. Agan with regard to the
Volstead enforcement act it would ap-
pear to this paper that his entry into
the campaign would take more from
Mr. Rabbits strength than from that
OF Emery or Hardness, who are gem
orally known to be in sympathy with
as it now stands. and since
Agan comes from the south end of the
state where Babbitt and HARNESS both
i've, his entry would also take from
Hartness more strength than from
Emery-Barton MONITOR.

A correspondent asks The Banner
how the Walloomsac rive. got its
name. According to Zadock Thomp
sons history of Vermont it comes
from Wallum's "choick," the later
word meaning grant or land patent
Walilm's choick was a Dutch grant
of land bordering the stream now
known as the Walloomsac. The grant
extended f.om point in Rensselaer,
county to the center of the presen;
village of Bennington and it was the
dispute over this grant that first
started the conflict between New
York and the Vermont settlers Owe:
land titles. Walium's patent was
granted before Governor Bennius
Wentwo tn of New Hampshire mcde
his first grant OF land here in Ben
nington. 1t was therefore the best
title that New York had on this de
OF the line and was considered the test
case Failing TO enforce this claim
New York surely had no right tc
maintain land titles granted subse
quelt to those made by the royal GOV
emo: of New Hampshire who clear
lily had as mach power as the roya
governor Of New York, and except in
this one case of Wallum's choick, was
first in the field.
