Complaint that children in Westfield
Mass, were given ether on Jumps OF
sugar to deaden their appetites and
stop their boist'rousness seems to be
rather well supported by evidence Of
teachers who told Of children coming to
school with the smell Of ether on their
breath. Such practice Is little short
Of barbarous because il has ten
dency TO retard the physical, mental
and moral development Of the children.
The complaint ought to be followed
up by most rigid investigation both
p TO the practices and as to the stores
which have been selling ether promis
ruously.

& Maine railroad by passes shall give
up their seats to the paying patrons,
1t would be highly interesting to be on
the train when the president of the
road rises, touches his hat and offers
bis seat to some passenger in an over
crowded car. Or perhaps the president
of the road is exempt from the proyi-
sion of the edict.

Vermont already has one well-estab-

of sound growth If the new concern,
launching out in active work, should
advance by as steady and as sound
growth it might mean much to the
financial life of the state.

CANNOT HELP HIMSELF.
Lewis has given no indication that
he viii run for the office, but sig
nificance Is attached to the statement
OF his friends today that "he cannot
help himself If there IL q demand for
him"
The movement to elect Lewis origi-
mated with insurgent elements in the
federation whose aim Is the reorgani-
cation OF the executive council. the
central administrative body Of the
federation. and the elimination Of
Gompers' policies.
According to reports. other groups,
which hitherto have aligned them
selves with Gompers, have signified
their intention to support Lewis.
Coupled with these reports are ru-
mors that before the next election,
which will take place in the conven-
tion opening In Denver. Col, June 10,
Gompers will announce his retire.

SEE RESULTS FROM NOTE.
In view of the firm tone Of secre-
tary Hughes latest note. delivered
to President Porras yesterday II is
believed the Panaman authoities will
see. the uselessness OF further argu-
ment and will lose no>time in turning
over to Costa Rica the territory
which was awarded to that Republic
by the decision of Chief Justice
White.
While Secretary Hughes note Of
yesterday was final in character and
implies that the United States is ready
to use armed force II necessary to
compel Panama to live up to it's law
full engagements, il was pointed out
today that the note was decidedly
friendly and extremely tactful, In that
it set no date for the surrender OF
territory. merely specifying that the
action be taken within "a reasonable
time" By this phrasing 1T is be-
lieved much Of the sting Of the ultf-
matum has been taken away and an
opportunity given for the Porras gov
eminent to comply without unneces-
sary offense to the Panaman national

note reads, "consecrated by the allied
nations in the treaty of Versailles and
signged by the neutrals in the pact Of
the League of Nations. that even the
semi-civilized countries placed under

power have the right that the exer-
else of this mandate must be govern

people under the mandate, with no
consideration at all for the interest
of the mandatory. And If this Is so.
