G. E. Diemart Is Retired from
 the Town Council

G. E. Diemart is no longer a member of the town council. A few days ago w. E. Parrott re- ceived a letter from Mir. Diemart who is now in Kansas. which stated that he would not return north with Mrs. Diemart. He has been under medical treatment, and is disappointed that his phy- sicians do not deem it expedient for him to return at this time. The gentleman's disappointment was shared by his fellow mem- bers of the council who were anxious to have him remain on the council until the end of his term which would have expired in April, 1921. But as he had been absent from more than three consecutive meetings it was thought best to decide before the caucus was held whether his place on the council should be de- clared vacant. Mayor Pritchett called a special meeting of the council Saturday evening and re- ported the information he had re- ceived concerning MT. Diemart. A motion prevailed that MT. Die mart's place on the council be de- clared vacant. This action by the council on Saturday evening made it possible for the vacancy to be reported at the caucus Mon- day evening, thereby giving the citizens an opportunity to make nominations for a successor to MT. Diemart. At the municipal election in 1919 Glenn Diemart led the ticket. He made a good councilman, and has many warm friends. in Wrangell who regret that circumstances over which he had no control made it necessary for him to be retired from the council.

Why the Connecticut Woman Was In
terested.

Editor, Barre Times: | saw by re-
cent number of The Times that the
Rutland Herald is asking how It con-
Germs Miss Hill of Connecticut how a
Vermont candidate for governor STANDS
on the woman suffrage question.
The reason is obvious. As any led
eral law concerns all citizens of the u
s. A., so the citizens of the majority,
of states which have carried this bill
certainly have right to ask II a Few
people in one corner of the country are
choosing leader who proposes to put
brake on the wheel of progress to-
ward civilization.
II seems to take long time to con
vince some people that women are clti-
zens according to Art, IA, Sec. !, OF the
II. S. constitution, and that according
to Art. Is, Sec. !, "The rights OF cltl'
Gems of the L. S. to vote shall not be
denied or abridged by the U. >. or by
any state on account of race, color OF
previous condition of servitude."
The last phrase most certainly ap'
plies to women.

4 THE VALUE OF AN AGREEMENT

THE VALUE OF AN AGREEMENT.
Aside from the question of whether
the wage increase agreed upon in Bos-
ton by committees representing en-
ployes and employers is a sufficient
one. there is another which seems to
have been overlooked by the granite
cutters at their meeting last evening,
one upon which the life and usefulness
Of the union depends, and this is the
value of an agreement. Barre cutters
have been justly proud of the record of
their union in that ii never broke an
agreement This fact has given il charac-
ter and influence in all its dealings.
But last night it was overlooked in the
action 1t took not to return to work
until it got IS a day. If an agree
ment is not 20 be kept by the union,
can the manufacturers be expected TO
keep oneY If both repudiate agree
ments, of what value are they to either
side. and what use is there in eontinu-
ing to make themS Among the bene-
fits accruing from utilization with a
labor union there is none so beneficial
a. that of collective bargaining, and
this has been secured to members by
the unions influence over them in max.
ing them TO live up to the agreements
they have made as well as by their
power in holding the employers firmly
TO their end of the bargain. A fail
ure on the part of the union or its
members to realize this fact will go q
long way towards weakening the un.
ion with its own members as well as
with the employers. Considering last
nights action from the financial end, 8
months loafng would eat up all the
money gained from an IS wage be
tween that time and Sept. J.
An agreement ought to be something
more than a scrap Of paper.

The University of Vermont baseball
team has given a good account of it
self in two extra inning games on its
southern trip, defeating Georgetown
and Princeton in hard fought contests;
but a few victories in early season do
not make a championship nine, and the
BOYS need to recognize that all the
baseball talent is not gathered in any
one institution. In other words, they
should not go into any contest under
estimating their opponents. The end
of the season will tell the story OF
success.
