LETTERS TOTHE EDITOR
High School Principalship.

Editor, Barre Times--The article in
Saturdays Times referring to the APP
pointment OF Mr.. Hunt to be superin-
tendent Of schools at Burlington, and
his expected resignation as principal
of our high school came as decided
surprise to most Of our citizens. Al
though We appreciate the advancement
which the new position gives Mr..
Hunt; also, the valuable services which
he has rendered in our high school. we
cannot but regret that the change
should come at such an inopportunc
time as the middle Of the school year.
The appointment Of new principal,
in all likelihood, means the choosing
OF someone with different ideas and
methods than those carried out by Mr..
Hunt; change which might be all
right at the commencement Of school
year, but detrimental at this time.
With this idea in view is it not worth
while considering whether II is neces-
sary to do what Burlington has done
90 outside onr own schools to find
someone to fill the vacancy
II may truly be said that we have
few men teachers in our schools to-

Parker and the Press.

Judge Alton B Parker OF New York
although lawyer of some prominence
is best known to the public at large as
former candidate for president Of the
I United States. He was perhaps the
most insignificant candidate that ever
ran for president. He was merely an
incident in the career OF Theodore
Roosevelt
Parker Let's see; Parkeri Who
was hef" the public of to-day asks in a
hesitating way "The name sounds
familiar. oh yesl He's the man whom
Roosevelt swamped in the 1904 presi-
dental campaign"
Judge Parker appeared before the
Vermont Bar association in a public
address at Montpelier Tuesday night
He told his audience that lawyers owed
their country the duty Of moulding
public opinion, since the press and the
church had fallen down on the job He
urged the members of the bar 10 act
unfettered by partisan zeal, whatever
that might mean. Judge Parker had
this to say in regard to the press
moulding public opinion:
"The press has fallen down ON the
job. The press. though IL has ample
power TO perform this great task
mould public opioionl has neither
the sincerity nor judicial qualities nee
esssry IL Is full of craftsmanship pre-
judice, fickleness and a pedantic ego
tism that. though not precisely child
ish smacks Of the undergraduate"
The judicial qualities phrase an
adroit pat on the back for the lawyers,
pleased them. There was applause
Such is the way of the world. Lawyers
are human. and subject to fiafter as
much as any other class OF profession
al men One wonders what sort Of
public opinion Parker moulded by his
siur al the press and the church. OF
course there are really great LAWYERS
who do mould opinion. whether thew /
may consider IL their duty 20 their
country or not But Judge Parker

For the good name of American poll
tics it is q matter for generalization
that Gov. Sproul Of Pennsylvania is
not to resign his executive position in
order to receive appointment as United
States senator to succeed the late Boies
Penrose. Sproul may be in every way
fit to serve his state and nation in
the upper branch of Congress, but the
move suggested as series of steps
toward becoming member of the Sem
ate is such as to suggest too much
artifciality and toe little Difference to
the wishes Of the people of the com
monwealth, or their Representatives.
Gov. sproul may at some time go to
the United States Senate but the peo-
pie of Pennsylvania may wish that to
be accomplished in a more regular man

naturally upheld the verdict, and II
must be said that his conclusions
are those of an upright man who
would not consciously permit his

would welcome second trial before
