Fire at Morristown Corners

The Morrisville fire company was
called out at about 1850 a. m. last
Thursday for a brisk fire on the farm
belonging to R. L. Thayer at Morris
town Corners, known as the George
|. A. Smith farm. The blaze had
gained considerable Roadway before
being discovered and the company
had to put up a hard fight to save any
buildings at the little village. The
barns, ice house and blacksmith shop
on the farm were completely de-
stroyed, also the church which was
the oldest in Lamoille county, and a
shed belonging to Herb Keller. The
roofs of several dwelling houses
caught, but were extinguished. The
loss is estimated at $4,000, with an
insurance of $4,000. 1t is thought
that the fire caught from electric
wires at the barn.

THE RIGHT TO PICKET

Here is how Governor Cameron Morrison of North Carolina inter prets and protects the much discussed right to picket. The following para graphs are quoted from the proclama- tion issued by him on July 2I, 1922:
 ''The strikers have a right, when they will do so respectfully and in good nature, and without threat or menace, to present their argument to a person about to take their place, and, if such a person agrees with them, to induce him to quit work, or not commence, because person about to go to work, being free man and having a right to do so or not to do so, as he pleases, 1t then fol- lows that person breaks no valid law who undertakes to persuade an other to do that which he has a legal right to do.
 "I will, therefore, request the officer in command the military forces on duty to permit reasonable sized com mittees, as long as they will conduct themselves peacefully and respect fully to present their cause to any body they may see fit to present it to; but the officers will be directed to disperse all large assemblies brought together for the purpose of overawing

and intimidating, by display of numbers, those who desire to go to work ,and to suppress all effort to intimidation and insult of every char acter calculated to produce a breach of the peace and riotous conditions. Striking laborers have right to use argument to such extent as they can do so in an orderly way, but they have no right in any manner whatso- ever to put a person about to take their place in fear and by manifesto tions of physical force or through dispal yof numbers or manifestations of violence of any kind to drive him from an exercise of his free will to work when and where he pleases."
 
 Tt is the solemn purpose of your Governor to cause the military forces of the State to respect the legal right of all persons, and take no part in any peaceful economic battle which the conflicting forces of your counties may engage in, but all must realize that our State is one of law and order, and that the full power of the State should be exercised to suppress any effort to substitute force and in inhalation for argument in a contro- versy in this State"

MERIDEN KEEPING
 PACE IN BUILDING
 WITH OTHER CITIES
Will Easily Pass Million Mark This .s Year Permits Indicate.

Meriden, Aug. 18.-Meriden's build ing program for the last four and a half years will aggregate over six million dollars. Al told 1,426 build ing permits have been issued and this does not include those who built out side the first taxation district or old city limits before January I, 1922. One hundred and eighty new houses have been built, many of these to house two or more families.
 Probably few people realize this great home and industrial deveolp- ment until their attention is called to it in detail. It has been accomplished quietly yet surely with the result that Meriden has many new public buildings, a needed growth in tis mercantile center and development of permanent housing facilities that promises much for the future.
 The estimated value of the permits is close to five million dollars. The estimates, however, are low and in some ~c cases no estimate is given. Conservative judges say that the es- timated cost should be increased a very considerable amount to arrive at actual costs. If this is done the total runs to well over six millions of dol lars. E.
 Beginning with 1918 the increase is marked. In that year one hundred and forty permits were granted. In 1919 there were two hundred and eighty-eight, in 1920 there were three hundred sixty-nine and in 1921 there were issued. four hundred and three permits. The first six months of this year records two hundred twenty-six permits granted aggregating nearly $8oo,o 1000 and indicating that again the million dollar mark will be passed
