Mansfield

The confidence which the owners OF
the Summit house on Mount Mans
field feel in the possibilities OF Yer
mont as a summer resort ought to be
shared in by various other interests Of
the state.
Not only did these people spend
thousands of dollars last summer i'll
making fine road part way down the
mountain from the site Of their hos
telry but they are now going ahead to
improve the accommodations i'll their
little hotel by the addition OF twenty
sleeping rooms and by the installation
of bathing facilities
The Summit house is far from pala-
tial it is even primitive in appearance
and in some Of its architectural fea-
lures, but at the same tine it is COM
Portable and has an air Of cosiness
about it that appeals to the tourist
who likes nature and just enough OF
the baCkwoodsy atmosphere to give 4
zest to the experience of mountain life.

knowing the appealing nature Of
their environment, the proprietors Of
the Summit house have piled up eX-
penditures on their original invest
mcnt and are continuing TO do 50 i'll
order to make their facilities more
attractive.
They thereby reveal faith in Mount
Mansfield as a summer resort, faith in
the future OF all Vermont in that same
line Of industry.
That faith is quite likely to be re-
warded by fair returns later on just

Stil An Issue, But

We do not believe that the editorial
stand OF some OF our contemporaries
has any foundation when it occupies
the position that prohibition is no
longer an issue Any subject which
the people OF the United States care to
raise is an issue and will be so long as
this country remains a republic.
Perhaps the state republican party
was not called on to restate its posi-
ton on the Volstead act in state con
vention for the state cannot change
federal legislation. This does not
mean, however, that the subject OF
prohibition cannot be dealt with when
it comes to The election OF United
States senator's or members OF Con
gress.
The argument that the question OF
prohibition cannot be raised because
slavery now is dead issue is laugh
able Was not slavery legali2ed by
the federal Constitution and didn't the
southern states have the right to hold
slaves under their own constitutions
until a constant hAmmeriug by what
now is the republican party brought
about the change III the Constitution
and the resulting Civil war. If the
stand that any part Of the Coustitu-
ton is sacred and cannot be altered

years ago, slavery would not have
