ABOUT THE STATE
Happenings Of Interest from
Different SectiouA

John Fl. Borland, who was with Miss
Mildred Hanan in New York City when
she was fatally shot by Mrs. Grace
Lawes few days ago, was the son OF
Mr.. and Mrs. James L. Borland of st.
Johnsbury.
The store of Barney Bosen In Rnt-
land was entered Friday night or early
Saturday morning and $500 worth Of
plumber was stolen from an unlocked
safe, the loot consisting Of watches,
rings and other jewelry.
When a motorcycle ridden by Alvah
B. Billings of Rutland struck Ford
sedan driven by William Molin Of Cen
ter Rutland, who had two passengers,
Mr.. Billings was thrown over the auto
mobile. He suffered q scalp wound and
a severe cut on one leg. George
Moroney, a passenger in the Molin car,
was cut by the shattered glass from
the windshield. The sedan was badly
smashed and the motorcycle was
wrecked.
A big truck, bound from st. Johns
bury to Boston and heavily loaded
with derricks and other construction
material, went through the bridge over
,Joe's brook on the Barnet road Satur-
day morning. The bridge was being
taken down preparatory to putting up
a cement structure and temporary
bridge was being built. 1t is believed
the truck was coming so fast that the
driver did not notice that detour had
to be made. Four men riding in the
truck were uninjured and two men
working under the old bridge had
barely time to get out of the way be-
fore the truck came crashing through.
The truck was left in the water for
some hours.

KENTUCKY WHISKY TAX
HELD TO Be INVALID
United States Supreme Court Holds
That Kentucky Liquor Tax
In Unconstitutional.

Washington, March /. - Kentucky
laws levying a special tax on liquors
withdrawn from bonded warehouses
were held invalid Monday by the Su-
preme Court.
Several millions OF dollars in taxes
already collected by the state were in
yolved.
The court sustained lower courts
which had granted an Injunction to
the Kentucky Dlsillerie sand Ware
house Company and the ]. and r. Frie-
berg Company. precenting interference
by the state authorities to withdraw
ais Of liquor on which the tax had
been paid
The Supreme Court upheld DEGREES
Of the Federal District Court for the
Eastern Kentucky district that the law
under which the taxes were collected
violated both the state and Federal
constitutions.
The state argued that there was nc
competition in the liquor business now
and that the tax therefore could not
be considered confiscatory.
The opinion OF the Supreme Court
which was unanimous. was read by
Justice Brandies.

ALLIES Reject REP.
ARATIONS OFFER Of
GERMAN DELEGATES
Lloyd George Tells German Delegates
There Is No Need to Read Their
Proposition II II Was as They
Stated at Conference.

London, March /. - Germany,
through delegates to the conference
with the Allied representatives here
today Is reported to have made repara-
tion offers Of approximately 30,OOO,,-
100000 gold marks, or about $780,
100000.
1t was understood, outside the con-
ference that, after Dr. Simons, the
German foreign minister, had flnis ed
his statement on reparations to he
conferees, Mr.. Lloyd George, the Fri
tish prime minister, replied In sub
stance that, unless the Germans had
something more to offer than appear
ed in DR.. Simon's statement, there was
no need Of continuing the conference.
Mr. Lloyd George is said to hive
told the German foreign minister:
"If the written proposals are OF he
same general character as the explain
alton of them, II is not worth while for
US to read them. You have a complete
lack OF comprehension of the post on
of the Allies and of your own posit IN.
We will discuss among ourselves 'ur
reply and give it to you tomorrow at
II o'clock"
When the Germans left the confer
ence they appeared to be greatly de-
pressed. Premiers Lloyd George and
BRAND were smiling, as they came
from the conference chamber.

Is q Real One.

Colonel ]. Barbour Russell has re-

L. Merz, who Is now in New York on
business:
81 note that you have booked The
Kid with Charlie Chaplin.
"Wish to inform you that you have
booke dthe bast picture now running
IN New York to crowded houses.
Everyone who has seen this picture
has raved about it. There are many
laughs and many tears. | would i'm
press upon the public that The Kid
is entirely different from any picture
that Charlie Chaplin has ever fea-
tured. 1t is six reels of real interest
ing entertainment, and when the end
comes you regret that this picture
was not longer.

Kid means anything to you. you are
welcome to use same, as consider it
one of the best features I have ever
seen. A. l.. MERI."

WHISKY AS OUTLAW
DEF|ES THE State
SAYSTHE governor
Governor Morrow, In Refusing Pardon
to BOotlegger, Says, "Splrlt
Of Utter Evil Challenges
Authority"

Frankfort, KY, March ]. - Whisky
as an outlaw defies all law and be-
comes ony spirit Of utter evil and
the Commonwealth has reached the
condition where It's authority to main
tain law and order rs being openly,
persistently and brazenly challeng-
ed" said Governor Edwin p. Morrow
in statement issued here Monday set
ting forth his reasons for refusing a
pardon to Charles Reed, convicted In
the Lincoln Circuit Court on charges
Of bootlegging. Reed was convicted of
bootlegging on four counts and fined
500 and sentenced to serve from forty
to fifty days in Jail on each count He
also was convicted of maintaining a
common nuisance and fined $4,000.
Plea for pardon was made to Gov
ernor Morrow, based on alleged i'll
health of Reed, who, it is said, is not
in the state and was not present at
any Of his trials. After reciting the
facts in the case and stating that no
physicians certificate accompanied
the application, Governor Morrow
said:
at Is evident from the number of
convictions against him that for some
very considerable time he carried on
business of violating the prohibition
law by the continued sale of whiskk
and that this grew to such an extent
that it became common nuisance in
the neighborhood The sale of whisky
in the manner indicated by these con-
victions becomes business, and the
place of this unlawful business be-
comes resort of criminals of all
classes; the rendezvous of every spirit
that relies authority. Sales are made
at such a place without regard to age,
and such place becomes a fostering
ulcer in the life of a community.
whisky is an outlaw, defies all law
and becomes only a spirit of utter
evil. The commonwealth has reached
the condition where its authority to
maintain law and order is being open
ly, persistently and brazenly chal-
Hanged by the impudent, open and no
torious violations of the prohibition
law; by threats of lawbreakers
against informers; intimidation OF
those who oppose this illegitimate
business, and by influences coming
from this business which threatens to
corrupt the source of all authority
The violation of this law is far worse
than the ordinary evils Of drink. 1t
