The Vermont Winter.

One can not help noticing that the
northwestern part Of Vermont seems
often 10 escape some very severe win
ter storms that bring trouble, de-
struction and even loss of life TO sec
tions far to the south. No doubt most
people along the Atlantic seaboard
consider Vermont as next door to the
North Pole but the fact II, year "
and year out. we winter more comfort
ably and with less disaster than DC
those who consider themselves more
fortunately situated from Vthe stand
point of climate than we are.
OF course, we are better prepared toi
winter than those to the south, we
expect heavy falls Of snow, seem q
know how to take care of them when
they come, with the result that we are
not greatly inconvenienced. And ire
quently it happense as il just has, that
the storm from the south never gets
as far north as this We have longer
pulls OF real cold Weather, but il j. 4
dry cold which can easily be kept out,
both from the body and the home, 50
that we do not suffer even with the
Thermometer below zero the way they
do in Boston, for instance, when II u
above, because there the dampness
cuts to the very marrow. When one
measures it all in all, Vermont Is a
pretty good place IN which to WIN

and the wounded and doing the nu-
merous other details, which develop
in such an emergency. Outside Of the
police and fire organizations of the
District OF Columbia, the Red Cross
was probably the first organization
on the ground to do its part toward
coping with the situations and the re-
ports coming from Washington indl-
cate that the Red Cross was OF ma
te-ial aid in bringing order out Of
chaos, as well as ministering 70 the
suffering Of the injured
When we read of the prompt and
effective aid that the Red Cross Is do
ing in emergencies like that in the
Knickerbocker theatre disaster, we are
encouraged to continue our support 81
that great organization, at least to she
extent OF holding membership in the
Red Cross and perhaps to a greater de-
gree OF liberality in larger contribu-
tions. The Red Cross is by no means
a war organization albeit it found ave
nue. for its greatest effort in the period
of the World war; it is an agency Tor
peace times as well as for war. Every
time a great emergency arises, the
Red Cross, if at all located so thas
it can do so, is among the first to
lend aid. This it has proven time aft
er time both before and after the
World war. Knowing this and having
the Knickerbocker theatre disaster
fresh in mind, we can well believe that
the small contribution we make TO-
ward the Red Cross is wisely directed.

THE CALIFORNIA INDIANS.
They Deserve and Must Have Just
Treatment at Our Hands.

The white race has taken their lands
from the Indians of America on precise.
ly the same ground upon which a yell
low race may contemplate displacing
us in the future. We wanted them and
were able to take them. II at the time
we bothered our heads for some reason
To Justify our robbery il was set up
that their lands were really but made
quate compensation for making them as
pious and holy as we were ourselye thee
by saving their immortal souls. Or, omit
ting the piety, we said to ourselves
that the earth and all on 1t was for the
use Of the human race and that we
could make the continent support more
of us than the Indians were maintain
ing, Just as the yellow races can sup
port more human beings to the acre
than we.
Most of the Indians tribes objected
to being driven out by us Christians
for fought US TO the best of their
ability. The California Indians gener.
ally submitted. We took their lands
from them almost without resistance.
We have crowded them of the best
lands and moved them from one res
ervation TO another IL has been the ma
tional policy to make treaties with
the Indians in which We cheated them
in shocking fashion. We have. however,
usually kept the bargains, at least
until we wanted the land which we had
agreed that they might keep. We have
paid, and are paying them good deal
Of money.
1t appears, however, that way back
in 1851 we made a treaty with Indians
in this state in which, among other
things, we agreed to spend 81 100000
cash for them. Having made the treaty,
as alleged, we paid no further atten-
ton to ii and in fact have never paid a
cent. Some friends Of the Indians have
dug out these treaties and a delega-
ton is now on the way 10 Washington
70 collect. And they should get every
cent Of IL. With interest compounded
semi annually Il should amount TO
tidy sum. We ought to be decent-even
to Indians.
California Indians evidently feel
they have waited long enough for the
federal government 70 live up 10 its
promises.-San Francisco Chronicle.

CURRENT COMMENT
The Executive Budget.

Vermont is becoming increasingly
interested in the executive budget, to
replace the present system. The plan
is to have the incoming governor pre-
pare a budget and to have. the legisla
ture adhere 20 1t. This contemplates,
of course, making the legislature a
rubber stamp Of the executive.
That some fiscal improvement is
needed is granted; that an executive
budget is the way out has not been
proven to the satisfaction Of The Mes.
senger The legislature, under our
constitution, is master of the purse
strings, and nothing but constitu-
tional amendment can alter this fact.
Are the people prepared to amend
the constitution so as to direct the
representatives Of all the people to ae-
cept the dictates of one man as to ex-
penditures This The Messenger very
much doubts, and it doubts very much
the wisdom of such suggestion.
II is easy to think that change in
procedure will mean the elimination Of
the troubles that now worry us, but
there lie little in governmental expert.

The West Is Still Further West.

The Middle Western states, SNUG and
satisfied with their material assets
developed in a brief half century, may
well take warning from the courageous
although somewhat pathetic efforts o.
New Hampshire to revive its lost
prestige and glory as an agriculture
community. The lure of the great west

England Hill country, for the fertile
and easily plowed and planted fields Of

and take up the abandoned rural home

worth while considering. During the
past decade there has been no increase
to speak of in the population of the
rural districts along the Mississippi
watershed. The trend of peoples west

small degree and may in another
half century become quite a problem.

dication Of the present lure Of the
setting sun In order to counteraet
this movement, in order TO avoid
a repetition here of the plight of New

that nothing be left undone to promote
agricultural development. If this is
not done some day we also may be

LETTERS TOTHE EDITOR
Cause of "Washboards."

Editor, Times; Notice in your paper

as to the cause of washboard highways
Would like to see the different YER
Sions Of ii. There was never but one
theory in my mind about 1t and that
they are started by the vibration Of
the car the same AZ you get on long
bridge with dog trotting over it, and
you yet it on level bridge, not on an
arch bridge Or If it was a grade, same
with the ear. When it strikes a level
road, there is a steady up and down
vibration that starts this steady
pounding. Then the rubber tire picks
up this loose dust on the same princi-
pie as a sleigh or sled dips into pitch
hole and each time brings up from the
bottom the loose snow; the same theory
that q railroad car wheel gets Hat

We notice our greatest trouble IS on
the level roads, covered with river or
bank gravel, as that is the most prac-
tical for the most OF our medium
priced roads. But few places are IA

Our trouble seems to be that some
of the small towns with trunk lines
going through them seem to think that
after they have built good gravel
road they have done their duty, and
there may be some excuse for their
not keeping it smoothed up, as many
of them have miles of other roads to
look after, and here is where it seems
reasonable that part of this large
sum of money paid into the state from
automobile licenses should look after
their trunk lines where they are much
used, They could have heavy and more

The scientific explanation of tbs
great earthquake shocks, which were
recorded by seismographs in various
parts Of the United States on January
81, may be summed up in ordinary
language by the declaration that the
earth in fracture of its crust slipped
either up or down, huge mass Of
rocks being moved from its normal po-
sition. Presumably, the movement OF
rock was considerably beneath the
surface of the earth's outer crust; and
in this case, fortunately, the move
ment took place under the Pacific
ocean rather than in region inhabit-
ed by human beings. Otherwise
there would have been a terrible dis
aster to record.

THE HEPBURN REQUEST TO
MIDDLEBURY.

Although the entire avails to accrue
to Middlebury college from the estate
of the late Alonzo Barton Hepburn OF
New York City are not yet know n,
it Is certain that the ,amotint will be
large as there is specified bequsst
of 100000, in addition to which the
college Is made one of the residuary
legatees. This was evidence Of the
strong loyalty of the New York finan-
cier to the institution, which gave
him his education. However, it was
not the extent of the evidence of Mr.
Hepburn's loyalty, as he had, during
his lifetime, given several hundred
thousand dollars to the institution at
various times and for varied purposes
In fact, the advance of Middlebury
college during recent years has been
due in large measure TO the financial
support accorded by Mr.. Hepburn;
and the Middlebury college of to-day
is in considerable. degree monument
TO his benefcence. Now the fresh
proof of devotion win serve to en-
shrine Mr.. Hepburn even more secure
ly in, the hearts of Middlebury college
people and also to cause qualification
10 those who are interested in the
cause of education. incidentally, this
splendid legacy, coming so soon after
the s35o.0o0 bequest to Norwich uni
versity from the estate of the late
Gen. Rush c. Hawkins, puts one more
of Nermont's highest institutions Of
learning on rather firm financial
foundation. Both Norwich and Mid
dlebury have strong assurance as
consequence. oddly enough, these tao
lcgacies came from persons who met
their deaths in the same city and
from similar causes both men we're
struck by motor vehicles, receiving
injuries, which were 90 serious as to
eventuate fatally.

Now, in this year of 1922, comes the

wolves have been seen chasing deer in
the little town of Brookline in south

Silzer Hits Out at
Better Roads lob

In his first public appearance since
his election, Governor-elect George S.
Silzer, speaking before the Good
Roads Association of New Jersey at a
banquet in the Robert Treat Hotel,
Newark, last Tuesday night, gave
somewhat of a shock to his guests
numbering upwards of a thousand
from every county in the stately
the candor of his address, unusual un-
der the circumstances.
He criticised the slogan used by the
association in its campaign to get
votes for the $4O,0OO,OOO road bond
issue: Better roads, ETC., without
taxation" He declared this was an
imposition on the people because it
gave the impression that moneys for
the roads could be secured without
entailing a burden on taxpayers.
He criticized the honesty of those
hackers of the bill who claimed that
the one mill tax would support the
overhead expense of the program
when, in their hearts, they knew that
it probably would be insufficient.
Next came criticism for advocates
of the measure for not being frank in
their propaganda and for telling half
truths" charge of which they must
purge themselves.

Sibley Car Stolen;
Found in Harlem

The Buick touring car belonging to
Ernest Sibley of Palisade was stolen
on Forty-third street, New York City,
Thanksgiving night while the Sibley
family were attending the theatre,
but was recovered the next day by
the New York police and returned to
it's owner.
Before going to the theatre Mr.. Sib-
ley made an attempt to park the car
in a Forty-fourth street garage, but
was unsuccessful, the garage being
crowded. He locked the car and left
it in charge of a young man, but after
the evenings entertainment. both the
car and the caretaker had disap-
peared. Mr.. Sibley reported the theft
to the Forty-seventh street police sta
.tion and returned to Palisade via the
subway.
On Friday Officer Winterhalter of
the New York force, who has estab-
lished a reputation for recovering
stolen autos, found a car answering
the description given in the hands of
two boys whose actions were suspi-
cious enough to warrant arrest Mr..
Sibley was notified Immediately, and
upon arriving at the police headquar-
ters recognized and identified the car.
The boys were sixteen and seven
teen years old, and pleaded stress of
circumstances to justify the misde-
meanor Mr.. Sibley did not press any
charges against the young men and
asked that they be dealt with lenient-
ly because of their tender age Should
the court records prove that this is
their first offense, it is thought Mr..
Sibley's request will be granted by
the magistrate.
Palisadian., 1922-12-09
Judge Silzer said. in part:

81 may say, in passing, that the act
does not limit the tax to one mill on
each dollar, but says not less than
one mill. l am strongly inclined to
believe that those who framed the bill
and those who advocated it knew that
one mill might not be enough.
Personally, l doubt very much
whether the present tax will be sufi-
cient to carry out the provisions of the
act. And it is no doubt true that, in
the last analysis, the taxpayer, and no
one else, must pay the $40,000,000 and
the interest thereon.
"Now that the bond isue has been
approved, by small minority of the
people, what are we to do with it?
Our duty is, under our system of gov
ernment, to carry out to the letter, the
provisions of the act.
But how is it to be carried out =?
So far as | am concerned, and so far
as lies in my power, l shall see that
the best roads possible are secured for
the money spent, and that the money
is spent honestly"
