Vermont Deer Show
Suicidal Tendency

Brattleboro, VT, March 20.-Game
Warden Metcalf of Windham county
declared today that suicidal mania
exists among the deer of this locality.
Reports have been coming in fire.
qnently in the last few weeks of deer
found dead, and although the deaths
were at first thought to be accidental.
the game warden has now reached the
conclusion that the deer are deliberate
~ taking their own lives. Whether
they are unable to get food because of
the mountainous drifts OF snow or
whether some other situation is maxi
ing their lives unbearable is not
known.
Most Of the deaths have occurred In
the vicinity of the S12-foot Boston &.
Maine railroad bridge spanning the
Connecticut river between South Ver-
non, VT, and Doolittle Station, n. II.
At least FIVE deer have met death re-
Gently, either through being struck by
trains on this bridse or by dropping

G|LL|OM PRIMARY
ATTACK SEEN AS
: BOOM FOR OFFICE
Speech Construed as Bid for
Nomination in Guberna-
toriaI Race.

The attack on the primary law
launched Tuesday night by Attorney
General Arthur L. Gilliom before the
Kiwanis Club at Bristol. Ind, was
deemed by the politicians today as
the opening gun of Gilliom's bid for
the gubernatorial nomination in
1928.
The movement also was said to
foreshadow a fight against the law
in the approaching Legislature. This
campaign, it is said, has the back
ing of the old-line politicians.
However, the prevailing question
is how far supporters Of Former
Senator Albert j. Beveridge, a
notable champion Of the primary,
will go toward its defense.
Few politicians dare to oppose
openly the repeal Of the primary, it
was learned, for the Republican
State platform contained primary
modification plank.
Ahead of Platform
Gilliom's speech, however, was
Aconstrued as going ahead Of the plat
form declaration.
The platform plank read:
Recognizing the evils of the pres
ert primary law, we suggest that the
matter be brought before the next
Legislature for modification and we
recommend that it be so modified
that it will restore representative
government by political parties"
However, Gilliom asserted:
1.-THE feature Of the present sys-
tenn under which an opportunity is
given to all party adherents to elect
delegates to State conventions could
be extended to the election Of dele
gates to county and district conven.
tons with provision that nomina-
tions should be made by such dele.
gates as some nominations for State
offices are now made.
Cites Experience
Nominations for inferior offices
could continue to be made as now,
but nominations for more important
offices such as legislative or judicial
The Indianapolis times. [volume] (Indianapolis [Ind.]) 1922-1965, 1926-11-25

should be made by delegates so
chosen.
Experience has taught that prop
erly chosen delegates can acquire
the necessary information concern
ing candidates for nominations more
readily and that they will act there
on more intelligently in the public
interest than those who are given
an opportunity to vote in the pri-
mary elections"

But today she again is in the Gen.

where, prior to her temporary re-
lease, she had been kept for five
years. Authorities released her after
her husband, a local pastor, and a
representative Of a religious cult,
asked that she be turned over to
them and "cured by prayer"
The experiment proved unsuccess-
full and she was found wandering
in Chicago. She was placed in the
psychopathic hospital there and then
in the Illinois State Hospital at Chi
cago. After Identification was es-
tablished she was returned to the
local institution.

Into an Enchanted World

Perhaps one of our greatest blessings is the tact
that are able once in while to escape IRON
ourselves. 1t is one OF the most interesting Things
about life that we occasionally can find outlet
from life.
This outlet is known imagination. Those who
have it pricelessly endowed: those without II
must be wretched indeed, for find In this queer
old world Of ours such queer assortment of frOwns
and laughs and struggle and disappointment thA
we grow worn and weary OF our tasks; and just be
ing ourselves becomes an oppressive monotony.
Sometimes our path is bright. and il lit by the
! Sunshine of hope 'and happiness and rewarded
effort and then life seems worth living. Some
times it is dark with SORROWS and failures, and
it winds through q twlt vale Of futility and de-
spair; and then we want to escape from ourselves.
Sometimes grow actually dangerous to our
selves, from too much thought of the workaday
world and too much worrying our tiny prob
lens.
Think Of the blessing then, OF being able to pick
up book and project ourselves on the gauZy wings
OF fancy into world Of romance, where right as
exemplifed by ourselves Of course always tr!umphs
and life is g.ittering pathway of adventure.
OF listening to symphony and forgetting our
selves in purple hour of beauty where everything
is suddenly purposeless the sensual enjoy
ment that comes from music.
Much has been written Of the cultivation of taste
and its Importance to the proper enjoyment OF
music or literature. 1t is not TASTE however, that
enables us to discover what they really hold for us
It is imagination that evokes their real charm
it is imagination that extracts from them the
thetc that enables to find feeting escape from
life
The world owes great debt to those who gavs
MS books and music, debt that cannot be estimate
by those who lack the gift which makes OF then

A Wise Move

Automobile dealers Of Bismarck are to be con-
graduated and supported in their efforts to stage
spring automobile show in Bismarck. This city
ranks high as a distributing point for automobiles
and very credtable show should be possible,
despite the fact that the dealers confronted with
rather limited quarters for display purposes.
There should he hearty cooperation the part of
every citizen To make the first show success so
that such an affair can be held each year

people to the city next March. strong program

Pass the Tax Bill
(ChicagO Tribune)

(CncagO IrlDune)
When the house took up the tax bill it sheved
partsanship for the time being, summoned the
treasury department into the conference toleranly
adjusted differences OF opinion, and produced q
measure emnently satisfactory to the country. The
house bill provides for reduction of $685., 1000 600
sets the maximum surtax 20 per cent; reduces
inheritance and gift taxes; abolishes or cuts down
miscellaneous levies and does away with publicity
The house acted with Il celebrity and show OF
sound judgment that brought FOR its handling OF
the tax bill general commentator from the
nation
The bill is now in the senate, and it finds itself
in a different atmosphere. Democratic minority
shows an inclination to keep the measure in its
hands long enough to do little partisan alteration
work.
Disrcgarding the advice OF Secretary Mellon, the
Democratic members of the senate committee
sought to revise the house bill in ways that would
bring the tax tut to $500,OOO,00O Mr.. Mellon had
said that to reduce the tax by more than $325
100000 would be to endanger the thirty year retire
ment program. Fortunately the Republican com
mittee majority held to Mr. Melons program and
rejected the Democratic proposal Whereupon
the Democrats gave notice that they could not &C.
quiesce in the 20 per cent surtax and would inss:
on one OF, Is per cent.
The Republican members of the senate commit
tee are anxious to get the bill out the floor
within the month and have made only minor changes
in the house bill The country is with them, and
will not take it kindly IL the Democratic minority
holds up the measure as it threatens to do
An added Importance attaches to the pending
bill. 1t is the first real peace-tme bill to up

to come, as basis for future tax legislation. 1t

A Good Barometer

Figures announced by Carl X. Kositzy, state land
commissioner, reflect improved financial conditions
In tha state. His Office has on hand available for
investment in school bonds and farm loans 81 .273
600 as against $7255O7 year ago.
This condition is possible because farm loans are
being paid and land contracts are being met more
promptly. The statistics coming from the Office OF
the land commissioner reflect improved financial
conditions in the state. Farmers of North Dakota
approach the new season in much better condition
than in the spring Of 1926.
