according to reports from Rome may
be elevated to the cardinalate at the CON

present archbishop of New York The
archbishop. who was born in New York
city :J3 years ago. has had a remarkable
career in the church. Only II years
after his ordination to the priesthood he
was appointed chancellor of the New
York archdiocese. In 1914 he became
auxiliary bishop and five years later was
appointed archbishop in succession to
the late Cardinal Farley. In his pres

largest archdiocese and it is said of him
that he knows every one of the 1000
priests under his charge by name Dur

pelier citizens in their form Of govern
ment. although one rather surprising feat
ure is the proposal to grant no pay for
services as alderman or mayor. If IT Is
worth anything to manage business of
hundreds of thousands of dollars a year
il ought to be worth 80 cents an hour for
time actually spent in the work. 1t will
be an extremely public-spirited citizen or
one with time hanging heavy on his
hands who will sacrifice his own business
and his own interests without getting some
compensation. 1t is generally agreed that
mayors and aldermen in small cities are
not paid according to the rate of wages
they command in some regular occupa-
ton: and the men who become candidates
for these offices appreciate the fact that
they are inviting some sacrifice in so do
ing. However, to ask them to make sac
rihce of time, money, energy, convenience
and pleasure without at least a small
measure of recompeuse is, we believe, ask
ing too much Of even the most public
spirited person. The arrangement might
work for little while. but eventually
such a system would be likely to fail of

Needed Prison Reform.
Huntington Free Press.)


The matter of a separate place of i'm
priSonment for women and men sentenced
to state prison is one that has long chal-
lenged the attention of the people of Yer
mOnt-periodically. The trouble is that
in this hurrying age people forget their
indignation over public abuses over night
and have to be reminded a week later Of
the fact they had ever heard of any such
thing. As a matter of fact, Judge John
T. Weeks. who has just been reappointcd
director of public buildings by Governor
Hardness, has stood all along for sepa-
rate building for women prisoners, and
not a mere annex to the male prison as is
proposed in the building in progress at
Windsor. That building can be used to
good advantage for additional room for
young male offenders.
Since the state still owns the house of
correction property in Rutland. there
would seem to be every reason why the
necessary improvements should not be
made to establish that as NermOnt's prison
for women offenders, with every oppOr-
tunity to separate the habitual criminals
from those of tender years and experience.
We hope the promise contained in the re-
appointment of Judge Weeks may mean
the consummation of the reform he has
thus advocated.

\ bill introduced in the legislature by
Mr. Mckinley of Stowe to protect rare
plants and fauna in the state is so full
Of the scientific names that the average
person may not understand it. There
is. however, behind the bill a very laud-
able purpOse-to save from extinction
many Vermont plants which are very
rare in this country and the rest of the
world. Botanists from other states
have visited certain sections of the state
and robbed them of these rare plants and
sold them to scientists elsewhere at fab
ulous prices. The state would serve its
best interests by protecting these rare
flowers in their natural habitat that they
may continue to attract expert botanists
and scientists to the state in considerable
numbers the same as they have in the
past.
