The Green Mountain State.
(Fitchburg Sentinel

The 3OO-mile endurance ride of horses
IN vermont Is over an interesting sec
ton OF the Green Mountain state. by
reason OF Its associations with the ex-
PLOTS of Ethan Allen in Revolutionary
times. a report OF the progress OF the
riders placed them as being at Brandon
and its vicinity Tuesday. rhe itinerary
Tor that day took them from Brandon
through East Middlebury and Bristol.
and mention is made of their passing
along the east shore of Lake Dunmore,
which is about eight miles from Brandon.
above which stands Mt MooSalamoo.
near the foot OF which is Il cave which is
reputed to have been used by Ethan Al
len when he wanted to hide himself from
his pursuers in the DAYS before the Reyo-
lutionary war, when all the lands were
claimed TO belong to the colony of New
York under grant from Charles III to the
duke of York. The governor of the col
ony of New York tried to dispossess the
settlers and Ethan Allen was the lender
IN resisting the efforts to eject them. The
mlnions of the law sent from New York
were treated rough. The resistance put
up was successful.
The mention of Lake Dunmore and
Ethan Aliens cave recalls the story en-
titled The Green Mountain Boys, the
author of which was Judge Thompson,
long since gathered with his fathers. We
wonder how many have read the story
which has been long out of print, but
which used TO be quite a favOrlte with
an earlier generation of fiction-readers.
The opening incident of this story is
laid in this cave, and it is related that
party of Green Mountain Boys had
gathered in this cave, where they were
lying in ambush to pounce upon a New
York posse which had been sent to cap
ture the ringleaders of the resistance TO
the process of ejectment. The Green
Mountain Boys emerged from the cave at
the approach of the posse and swooped
upon the sheriff in charge and his sub
ordinates. and threw them into Lake

Cady's Rural Poems.


rec ISoS.I
Lovers of rural life everywhere are
finding unalloyed JOY in the intimate and
loyal pictures of old-time life in the
country afforded by the poems of Daniel
l.. Cady. 1t required no less than four
editions of Rhymes of Vermont Rural
Life, first series, between December,
1919 and December, 1921, to satisfy the
demand for the work of this popular
author In speaking of the volume, the
Portland, Me-, Press noted that many of
the verses We're written from Europe, and
it added, 1.-The darn stuff is so real, We'll
bet it makes him homesick to write it.
The second series volume. of Mr.. Cady's
poems has now appeared, and we believe
it will be even more popular than the
first An authors note says that the
volume contains one hundred and seven
pieces in all, the same as Vol. /. of the
series. with seventy-seven mentions of
Vermont localities. The opening poem is
entitled General Ira Allen, founder of
the state and of the University of Yer
mont, and it is worthy of its place of
honor. The closing poem is Viye Yer
mont. while between the two named
is Counting in Vermont. The poems
make you ask for more, and Mr.. Cady s
muse seems not a bit tired.

His Single Purpose.

lMiddlebury Reglster.l
The voters of Vermont, regardless OF
what their personal convictions may be
in regard to the EoIstead act, or the
eighteenth amendment, should consider
that the Democratic candidate. Mr.. Ken
nedy. expresses his wish to go to Wash
ington for single purpose. a nullifica-
ton or modification of the Volstead act.
He hasn't revealed to the voters thus
far single other ambition. This fact is
worth a moments reflection before,
swept away by rhetoric, you decide to
send that sort of a man to congress.

PIERCE AND TAXES

his hearers would hoot him from

with his tax record as state sena-
tor.
Mr.. Pierce voted for all the meas
uros that contributed most to in
creasing state taxes and introduced
more OF those same measures than
any other member OF the legisla-
ture.
He also introduced many bills
which failed to pass. but II they
had been enacted. taxes would be
far higher than they are today.
Many salary increases given by
the legislature to state and county
officers were voted for by Mr..
Pierce. although be was absen;

on record in numerous specific in
stances.
He voted for nearly every ap-
preparation bill passed during all
the time that he was In the legis-
lature thus by his vote helping
sanction practically every ncces-
aary and unnecessary state expen-
dture. His negative votes on ap-
preparation bills were few and far
