HAPPENINGS IN VERMONT (Continued from puce two.) the Incomo tax is another thorn to the business man. Tho gov ernment makes the storekeepers pay a tax on bills receivable and for the coming year, from March 1, they wilt have to pay on the amount of cash re ceived, which makes It double payment for bills due this year. He also claims that many people go to tho cash stores and buy the things that are giving tho greater profits and then go to tho credit stores for credit and buy the goods with the least profits. Tho cash business will benefit the consumer Insofar as the mer chants doing a cash business can turn their goods Into money and thereby pur chase In greater amounts and take ad vantage of the discounts where they are available, and sell the samo quality of roods for less money. This saving, Mr. MacBrldc states, will more than pay for tho extra charge of delivery. The annual meeting- and election of the officers of Wlnooskl Lodge, Loyal Order of Mooso, was held In their rooms Wednesday, March 13.

"You nee'd not worry mother, there Ancen Frechette, alias Joe Frechette, nllas Sam Frechette, whose place was tearchod Monday afternoon, pleaded guilty to having liquor on hand with Intent to sell illegally and was given a sentence of not less than 10 nor more than 12 months at the house of correction at Rutland. He also was brought up on tho charge of breach of the peace and pleaded guilty and the case was con tinued for sentence. The breach of the peace consisted of his having made threats to "get" Chief oi Police Barber before July 4, If ho was still on tho Job by that time. It Is claimed ho has said that ho belonged to a black hand gang and that If it did not get the chief he would kill him himself.

This report of the chief of police depart ment Is up to last Saturday. There was received by tho municipal court In fees $1,041.61, which amount was paid Into .the village treasury. There Is still due In cases not audited $164.50, which makes a grand total of $1,206.11. This year Just closed marks probably one of the busiest In police circles and municipal court since the police depart ment has been Instituted. The next largest number of cases tried was for breach of the peace, 70. Last year was a hard year for the illegal traffic In liquor, since there were many soldiers stationed at Fort Ethan Allen and that the county had a State's attorney who was insistent upon seeing that these places were closed and thereby protect the morals of tho men at the fort. The manner In which this was accomplish ed and tho assistance given by the po lice department rece:vcd much credit from the authorities of the fort and the State. There were 23 illegal traf fic In liquor cases tried and the search and seizure cases numbered 13. An other set of cases which bears closely on the above Is night walking, which received a start last year and which Is to be looked after more closely In tho future.
