AS TO CHAPLAINS

The Rev. F. w. Lewis of st. Adams
is again Sin the hands of his friends"
for the chaplaincy of the Vermont
House. He did good work in that
position in the last session and as
pay therefor received $500 per day
and mileage, as well as a handsome
gift. We believe this position should
not be sought after, but some way
provided that will do away with
what in many cases brings about
scrambling and wire pulling. But so
long as the present custom continues
let the job be passed around. Rev.
ur. Webb, a well-known retired min
ister, now living at Montpelier, is
suggested by many and we under
stand is not making any special effort
personally for the place. He has
many friends among the coming men,
bers and may be chosen.
We understand that Rev. Joseph
Hamilton, chaplain of the Senate at
the last session, is not an aspirant
for the position and so that leaves
the place open for a new man. At
this time but one name is mentioned,
and that is Rev. John Prince Of
Waterbury. He has strong endorse
ment and as he is the only candi-
date there may not be any scramble
for that place.

The Vergennes Vermonter, in
speaking of the Newberry case, gives
a little attention to "Newberryism"
in Vermont. Here is paragraph
Probably no state in the Union is
worse afflicted with Newberryism
than Vermont. We have seen abun-
dant evidence of this in the last three
gubernatorial campaigns. In 1918,
1920 and 1922 the Office of governor
went to the highest bidder. In 1918
P. w. Clement spent $4,000 to get
the nomination; two years later
James Hardness carried it off after
cnay,Iirm thn Of
$4,000 plus; and in the campaign
recently closed Redfeld Proctor ad-
mitted he spent $22,800. The salary
is $780,"
"'Tis true, pity tits, it's true" We
hope the time is not far distant when
an ordinary mortal-one who has no
money to burn-may aspire to politi-
cal position. We fear that so long
as we have the primary that time
will be some distance off.
The Randolph Herald is of the
opinion that as far as nominating
is concerned "the pri-
mary amounts to but little, as many
towns turn down the nominee in favor
of Independents or else elect candi-
dates of the minority party" This
is very true and again brings up
the oft-repeated question, what is
the primary good for?" One objec-
ton to it is that it necessitates
double expense to the state by voting
in September and again in November. |
Another objection is that it requires
a man of wealth to seek office, as the
ordinary man cannot afford to extern
sively advertise himself, as has been
the case in late years. And again
it really spoils the interest in the |
November election, many not caring
to again do what they did in Sep |!
TENDER and so stay away from the
polls. 1t would seem that the primary
is not what its advocates prophesied |
That being the case, let us go back
to the old convention system, where
the merits of the aspirants can be |
and the voter make his
party choice, 81.

The "Gem Auto Truck Company"
which leased the Remington Arms
Company plant at Swanton about a
year ago and which it was given out
would do a thriving business, has
gone into bankruptcy. A large num-
Der of local people were induced to
take stock in the concern and, Of
course, they will be hit by the failure.
The concern has shops at Watervliet,
N. Y, and their failure is for several
thousand. The Remington Arms
Company was big thing and during
the war gave employment to large
number of Swanton people at big
wages, but after the war the concern
went out of business. While it is
hoped that this failure will not be
very large it is feared that, like the
general run of failures, the figures
will show an increase, rather than a
decrease,

And so unfortunately, the loss of

HARDING CONFESSES BIG
DEFICIT is IN OFFING

There lis food for thought in the
statement made by the president in
his message vetoing the bonus bill to
the effect that there will be a def
cheney in the revenues during the
present fiscal year of 672 millions.
The democrats have insisted for
weary months that the economy
claims of the republicans were I'M
founded in fact and that the govern
ment was spending more money than
was coming in, and that ga private
business conducted on such a basis
would be considered to be very badly
run Any level-headed business man
facing such situation would try
desperately to either increase income
or cut down expenses. But the re-
publican administration, in fullest
and unrestricted control of all
branches of the government, is doing
neither. The Wall Street journal,
which surely knows a good deal
about finances, takes the position
that the congress does not understand
that increases in tax rates above GER
tain points usually reduce the volume
of money obtained through that tax
alton. In nothing is this so appar-
ent as in tariff taxation. The I'm
derweod law, with its moderate rates,
brought in almost 4GO millions per
year 1.-THE rates permitted a reason
able amount of importationgof manu-
featured articles, yet not enough to
seriously compete with the Ameri-
can-made goods. The importations
had the salutary effect of restrain
ing the American manufacturer
from profiteering off the home mar
ket, But quite the opposite is true
of the Fordney law, in which null |
titude of rates are so high as to pro-
hibit or greatly reduce importations; I
in many important cases (such as /
aluminumware, entirely controlled in
America by Secretary MELONS COM
panies), the rate is practically pro-
hibitive. Mellon now has a monop-
oily Of the American market and can
advance rates on every article made
of aluminium in the United States.
With .aluminumwares shut out, no
revenue csir<Re collected at the port
of entry on that important item. In
the case of wool, there is a differ
ence; this country cannot produce
enough for the home supply, hence
much will enter regardless of the
duty, but the duty will cause an in
crease in the price of every article
into which it enters or is even claim
ed to enter. The net result of the
heavy rate increases on most articles
will be a decided drop in the revenue
obtained by the treasury, a pro-
nounced increase in the cost to the
consumer of every article the impor-
tation of which is thus further re-
stricted, and the necessity for the
people to pay yet other taxes to make
up for those lost through the failure
of European goods to enter our Gus
to mhouses. Already there are hints
thrown out of the necessity of laying
additional taxation to meet the def
icit now piling up-amounting to
about $34 for each head of a family
in the land. Of course, the burden
falls heaviest on the larger families
and those who like to buy the better
class of goods
