RARE MUSICAL TREAT.
Russian Symphony Orchestra Concert
Was Large Attended.

The Russian Symphony orchestra,
under leadership of Modest Altschuler,
gave a concert in the city hall in Mont
pelier Monday evening before an audi
ence that nearly filled the hail, only a
few scattering seats being unoccupled.
The concert was given under the ar
ra npement of Mr.. and Mrs, John B..
Eames of Montpelier, and the general
sentiment expressed by the music low
ers after the concert last evening was
that it was the best concert of the kind
that has been given in Montpelier in
many years. The company was com
posed of the largest number OF must
clans that have played together in this
city for many years at least, and some
say in the remembrance OF Montpel-
Ter audience. Four cars were used to
convey to Barre following the concert
the people from that city. The best eX-
preston of the approval of the work OF
the artists occurred at the end of the
concert. when the audience did not
leave the hall until an encore occurred
after the final number in the program.
None left their seats while the last
number was being played and but \
few persons left their seats directly
after the number was completed, but
sat applauding the work of the com
pany until the leader announced that
The company would play the Dance Of
the Hours from the opera "Ciocona.
The program that had been adver-
tised. was played and encores were lib
orally given. Following Mr., Towbin's
violin solo as an encore, Love Song,
rearranged by Elman, was played Aft
err Miss Viola Abrahsm's harp selection,
the encore was "Tarantelle,' by Pinto,
while another encore played was HUI
moresque.' by Dvorak. The company
made a hit with the lovers of music
and many suggestions Of endeavoring
to have them return to Montpelier
again were heard after the entertain.
ment One Of those who il well versed
in music. stated last evening that ut
was the best thing he ever heard in
Montpelier" Special reference is made
of the close harmony Of the company
as It played many Of the difficult parts
in the program.
The audience was by no means con
fined to Montpelier and Barre people,
for there were some over dozen who
drove here from Plainfeld to hear it,
while there were persons from nearly
every town in the county, and Mrs.
Florence Nelson Of Newport came here
to hear the concert. Many came here
by train and had to spend the night,
while others were able to drive to their
homes and could get there by train.

Tropical Waters Like Sea of Fire.

On still nights in tropical waters the
sea oftentimes is Illuminated as II by
fires of its own Every breaking wave
crest looks like flame. An oar dis
turbing the surface seems to dip into
molten metal. Swimming fishes leave
wakes OF brilliant brightness.
The phenomenon is due TO the pres
ence in the water of innumerable mul'
titudes of minute animals, each OF
which holds up its tiny torch, so to
speak, to contribute to the lllumina
tion.
Marine creatures of many tribes
crustaceans, jelly fishes, cePhalopods
fishes of various species, etc.--carry
lights. Some fishes have luminous
disks on their heads; others have lu-
minous spots along their sides, and yet
Others are covered with a luminous
slime
The angler fish has regular torch
for back fin, enabling it to see while
looking out for victims which its light
is expected to attract Another fiHny
species. found only at great depths
carries on the end of its nose what
looks like an electric light bulb, and
which serves an equivalent purpose.
Ii is in the depths of the ocean that
the really remarkable light bearing
fishes dwell. Theirs is a realm OF inky
darkness, into which no ray OF daylight
penetrates II they are to have light
they must furnish it themselves; and
to catch every possible glimmer. most
of them are provided with huge eyes.
Most remarkable in this respect OF
all known deep sea fishes is the "argy
ropelicus.9 which carries couple OF
dozen lanterns of large siZe-one on
each side, in front of the eve, and the
Others along the belly in double row
These are veritable bulls-eye lamps,
each of them with a double-convex lens
of crystal clear substance and refec-
tor behind
The light is emitted by a mass of
cells in the rear part, while the purpose
of a reflector is served by a lustrous
sheet of white fibrous tissue. Each
lantern has a muscular arrangement for
turning it this way or that, and il con
nected bv a nerve lentering at the
back with the central nervous system,
bv which its mechanism is manifestly
controlled. Thus in all likelihood the
fish is able to turn its lights on OF out
az will.

Hoover.

If Mr.. Hoover, in his very interesting
public statement, says in effect that
when the Republican and Democratic,
parties tell the public how they stand
on the issues, he will tell the public
how he stands on them and what party
he will support, who can fairly com.
plain? The two parties are bitterly
opposed to each other, but who knows
what their principles are or how they
differ? 1t is a droll situation. Chair
man Hays has i'll eminent Republicans
out hunting up issues, What is Re
publican What is Democrat? Mr.
Hoover makes us ask these questions
Three things Mr.. Hoover seems sure OF
He il not a candidate, he is for the
league of nations and he is liberal
not Socialist, in his views. If Mr.
Hoover is destined to be the next pres
ident, this statement cannot make an
end of him.-springfield Republican.

ment work ia to 60 to the reclamation
fund, 371s per cent to the states and
10 per cent to the federal government,
On past production OF oil for which
settlement is to be made il is agreed
that rs per cent Of the royalties shall
go to the reclamation fund, 20 per cent
to the states in which the oil was pro-
duced and 10 per cent to the federal
government. Maximum amounts OF
land to be leased to one interest are
fixed at 5000 acres for oil lands, 1850
acres for coal lands and 5, l20 acres for
oil shale lands. Minimum royalties are
fixed at 1874 per cent for oil lands and
five cents a ton for coal Maximum
royalties are left to be fixed by the
secretary of the interior. Under pro-
vision by which title to oil land in ex-
cess of $500 acres acquired after Oct,
last will be invalidated, it is noted by
the American Mining congress, many
considerable tracts will be virtually
confiscated, one estate alone losing over
50, 100000 in the process. The pro.
vision was put in for the purpose OF

The Unrest of the Farmer.

The government at Washington has
discovered that the oft mentioned un'
rest of the farmer is not theory, but
a condition. Certain questions have
been asked of the farmers in many sec
tions of the country, with a view to
discovering the reason for the unrest
and the farmers idea OF a remedy
therefor The answers "a a whole are
Illuminating as indications OF tht
farmers state of mind. and some OF
them are rather startling in then
touch of prophecy.
Three principal complaints are regis
tered namely:
|. Inability to obtain labor to work
the farms, hired help and the farmers
children having been lured to the city
by higher wages and easier living;
=. High profits taken by mlddlemer
for the mere handling of food prod
ucts; and
3. Lack OF proper agencies OF con
tact between the farmer and the ultl'
mate consumer.
Here Is summary of the sentiment
expressed in the replies to the govern
ments queries: That the time Is very
near when 1--WE farmers will have e
eurtail production and raise only what
we need for our own use, and let the
other fellows look ont for themselves
that somebody is going to suffer u
conditions are not remedied shortly
that the whole burden of the high cost
of living rests with the mlddleman
that conditions are causing thousands
of farmers to leave their farms, anc
that we have reached a crisis; that the
middleman should be made to go on tc
the farm and help produce things; thai
CITY wages should be cut to bring about
decrease in the cost of living that
the farmer labors and produces but
gets a smaller return therefor than any
other class; that the opportunities now
afforded capital to hoard and profteeI
should be curtailed; that labor unions
are more to blame for high prices thar
anybody else.
Government officials are said to re
card the indicated conditions among
the farmers as grave menace. The
Boston Globe losses this comment back
at the farmer;
"The enemy of the farmer is not the
highly paid skilled worker The enemy
of the farmer is faulty organization
of distributing and marketing his
wares; and the remedy for this lies IN
his own hands. Instead Of envylng OF
resenting what the organized workers
have obtained, let him profit by then
example
The statement from ottawa, to the
effect that more than $4,000 persons OF
the farming class emigrated TO Canada
from the United States during last
wear. is especially interesting as bear.

farmers Of this country. - Ludlow

Good Citizenship.

The first step toward good govern
ment is to get out full vote at all
primaries and elections The elements
that seek to manipulate popular gov
eminent for their own personal advan'
tage, always get their vote out. They
carry many contests where the mass
of the people do not set out in large
numbers.
In many states the real choice OF
the people is made at the primary con
tests. If the politicians can have their
way at the primaries, they are usually
able to control elections, Yet in spite
of the vital importance of those pre-
liminary contests, they are apt TO be
poorly attended.
Some people won't vote because they
say everything is set up and cut and
dried beforehand by the politicians. II
so. one reason why things are misman-
aged is that the people abstain from
voting in large numbers, therefore al
lowing interested parties to set things
up for their own personal advantage.
The results OF primaries and elections
closely affect everyone. If the govern

be high, public work will be badly
done. schools will not educate the chill

in shrot everything viii 60 badly.
Whereas, if capable and honest men
are expected improvement will be
achieved in all lines.
Yet the people who suffer from the
evils Of inefficient government often
forget when primary day comes. They
are too busy to take half hour to
20 to the polls on election day It is
poor patriotism, poor citizenship, and
mental sluggishness But these are
times when the spirit Of good citizen
shin should cause an increase of at
tendance at political contests. The man
who claims to love his country and to
want good business and good public
work Is a Stacker If he does not take
the trouble to vote-White River June

The oil land Controversy settled.

Agreement by the Senate and House
conferees upon the so.called oil land
leasing bill appears to assure the pas
sage Of this important measure at the
present session of Congress. Crush Of
business at the close Of the last session,
resulting in the failure Of the Senate to
adopt the conference report, probably
alone prevented the passage OF sim
liar measure at that time. The bill as
amended il compromise of contro-
versy extending back about 10 years
over the question of federal and state
control Of the governments land and
the question of the right OF privilege
Of exploiting the undersoil resources.
Technically the government control pol
lev wins. but a fixed percentage Of the
gross proceeds is conceded to the states.
Under the original land policy Of the
United States the right was extended
for the exploitation Of the government :
oil and mineral lands but the right has
been largely nullified during the past
few wears by presidential Withdrawals,
lin accordance with the policy estab-
lished by the Taft administration.
