Why Beat Villas?
(Rutland Herald.


Senator Martin Villas may well ask
why a conscientious. Woodworking legis-
lator, OF fine personal character, who
has received the compliment of repeated
elections from his own county, should
be opposed as a candidate for congress
by practically every newspaper in his
district and by almost every legislator
who ever sat with him through a legis-
lative session.
He might even say, as he has done
before. that certain interests are
against him. but that is all foolishness.
Men who know Villas best oppose him
because of his strange conception of pub
lie duty.
1t is not only that he talks too
much" but he seems to have the notion
that public service consists in making
i few well-chosen remarks on every i'm
portant measure and generally neglect
ing his other duties. He wears out the
patience of all his colleagues and abso-
lutely destroys any influence he might
have with them by boring them to abso-
Lutte extinction.
Il am aware, Mr.. President" Villas
would say on hundreds of lamentable oc-
casions, that / am in a minority in this
matter (the vote in one instance was %
to / but | feel it my duty to my con
stituents to state where / stand on this
matter" But his constituents never
hear of it.
Speechmaklng Is an obSeSSion with
Villas, a time-wastlng, useless habit that
instead of being an accomplishment is a
vice He talks, not as he states, to full
fill his duty to his constituents, but be
cause he has an itch for oratory that
amounts to disease.
There are lot like him in Washing
ton. and when they take the floor their
colleagues get up and go out. 1t speaks
pretty well for the traditional courtesy
of Vermont legislature that Villas has
been permitted to infict so many worth
less speeches on his associates without
rebuke.
To send Villas to Washington would
be cruel, not to him. because he can
speak indifferently to an audience of ono
or 1000 not to his prospective assoei-
ates. because they can curb him more or
less not to the public, because the pub
lie would regard him as a joke; but to
Vermont and Vermont people.
So far, this state has never been rep
resented by mere wind-jammer. Why
begin now?

WOMEN MUST DRESS ALIKE.
Turks Advocate Establishment of Stand
ard Form of Dress.

CONSTANTINOPLE, July 2O.-Some
optimistic and determined Turks are
attempting to persuade the women OF
the land TO adopt standard form of
dress. Optimistic, because Turkish
women seem no more inclined to wear a
uniform than would their sisters of
London, Paris and New York, and de-
termined because the committee de la
mode is thinking of calling upon the
police for help in carrying out its plans
Where are the women who would
consent to have imposed upon them an
antique and strange costume found to-
day only in museums y is one of the
questions hurled at the reformers
Where is the woman who would recon-
mend such a costume to another? Can a
Turkish woman of old world STEAMBOAT
dress like a modern hanoum of aristo-
cratic Pera? Nationalist fanaticism Is
an exsellent thing, but only within
limits
The committee, in answer to these
and sundry other attacks, has announced
darkly it is working on a scheme to
put over its project, the application of
which win be placed in the hands of
the municipal police.

gypsy bands beginning to enter the
state" Bless you, neighbor, you've been
most fortunate if you have escaped that
scourge thus far. In other parts of
Vermont the people have been overrun,
so to speak, by the pest until outraged
public opinion took a hand in the matter
and drove the gypsies out. just as the
St. Adams contemporary urges the pub
lie in its vicinity to do. We notice that
a similar policy is in operation in parts
of Massachusetts, so that the nOmads
are finding their path not strewn with
easy money from fortune telling and ma
rauding.

Fourteen survivors of the So brave

regiment. who headed for the front from
st. JoEnsbury on July 16, 1861, held a
reunion at st. Johnsbury Tuesday.
They presented brave front, as Yer

were filled with sadness, as since the
last reunion their beloved colonel, former
Go. Samuel Il. Pingree of Hartford,
has answered to his last roll call. Two
other prominent members of the organ
ization have also died during the year,
DR.. ii. c.. Newell and Carleton Felch,
