F. C. Williams must have the cour
age of his convictions to refuse those
black fox companies the right to sell
stock in this state.
E. A. Cook did the wise thing in
squelching the mentioning business
connecting his name with Congress.
Others might well do the same thing
unless they really intend to run.
Porter H. Dale is making the per
sonal canvass for Congress mentioned
in his announcement. This is certain
ly a first-hand way of getting informa
tion but often leads one to overesti
mate his strength because voters have
a proneness to not stating squarely
where they stand but giving one to be
lieve that they are favorable.
If we had a few more St. Albans
Messengers, St. Johnsbury Caledonians
and Randolph Heralds there would be
no use for public service commissions,
governors or anything of that sort.
The way they have settled this tele
phone affair vindicates the company
and brands the officials who have
touched the matter as weaklings.
STATE NEWS.
Thrifty Vermont.
Commissioner Williams sends out
a summary of the operation of Ver
mont savings banks and trust compa
nies for the six months ended Dec. 31,
last. In the half-year period the
banks gained $1,513,316 in deposit,
which now aggregate $89,543,081.
Loans ' on Vermont real estate in
creased $817,000 and now stand at
$89,543,011, while the figures on out
side real estate were $1,336,894 and
$1,533,070. Investment companies au
thorized by the state sold in Vermont
during the six months securities footing
up $4,770,486, of which $2,636,820 went

Will Hire Exnert Cow Tester. )
At the annual meeting of the Chitten
den Cow Testing Association held in
Burlington recently, a new idea was
developed and plans for carrying it
out. Thirteen of the members of the
organization decided to get together
and go somewhat beyond the work of
cow testing by hiring an expert, at
a salary of $1,200 a year, who will give
all his time to testing the cows of the
members mentioned, the stock num
bering about 500 head, and also to give
his advice about the farm needs in the
way of what crops to raise, sugges
tions about the soil, spraying, etc.
It is about the same as the county
supervisor's work, which is employed
in other counties but it is .conducted
as an entirely independent enterprise.
So far as known, this is the only move
ment of the kind yet started in the
state or in the United States.
WHAT THE PAPERS SAY.
"get down to bras
Graham is a strong
D. W. Hildreth, publisher of the
Express and Standard at. Newport, is
now located in one of the finest, if not
the finest, printing office buildings in
Vermont. He has just moved to the
new building constructed by him for
his business and from devil to editor
everyone wears a new smile. And
well they might, for the rooms are
large, light, clean, handy and hand
somely finished and equipped. The
building is of brick and theeditor
eniovs a commodious office finished in
quartered and panelled oak, harmoni
ously decorated while the business
office is of the same design. Hot and
cold water and every comfort and
convenience is afforded employes. The
Monitor extends congratulations to
Brother Hildreth, who has long needed
new quarters.
The writer was privileged to peruse
a few days ago the mail of a day or two
that is pouring into the Non-Par tisan
Prouty Club headquarters in response
to 1090 letters sent from the club to a
many prominent men in their respect
ive communities in Vermont. The list
used was the names appearing in "Men
of Vermont, "and was in no way selected
as to party, conditions or creed. The
Monitor has been enthusiastic about
Prouty and has believed that the
people of this state were for him,
but it was not prepared for any such
support as those letters accorded. The
reply was almost without exception,
"I am for Prouty," "1 am with you,"
"Count on me," "Yours for Prouty,"
"I will da all I can." Possibly one in
five were noncommittal or nominally
opposed. If a more impartial list
could be found, or a more complete
endorsement of a man produced,
should like to see it.
we
The Monitor has been no Fletcher
champion but the governor has won
our admiration in many respects.
From a legislator whose reputation
was that of being "on the fence" in
many matters he has developed some
real backbone, a thing a good many of
our governors have lost after the
campaign. Take the telephone matters
which have come up during his admin
istration and over which much of the
newspaper criticism has developed. A
large petition came to Governor
Fletcher asking for relief from tele
phone rates that the subscribers be
lieved to be unwarranted. Would any
of the newspapers say that he should
have pigeonholed it? He acted the!
part of a governor and authorized
special counsel to investigate and
report. Their report stated that
there should be a reduction in rates.
Was the governor to pocket the report
then? He passed it up to the public
service commission as a governor
should. The public service commis
sion was not acting as the governor
believed a Vermont public service
commission should act, not only in
respect to this subject but in regard to
others. He believed a change in this
commission would be for the best
interests of the state. He then
removed certain members of that
commission and appointed others in
their stead as a governor has a right
to do. This commission held an ex
haustive hearing on the subject and
has rendered a report. The telephone
company appeals. What is there
criminal, or irregular, or unlawful, or
out of place, or out of order for a
governor to do in these proceedings?
At what step would those papers
which so strenuously criticize Gover
nor Fletcher have had him stop? The
Monitor has not yet seen him accused
of starting the petition in the first
place. ,
Alleged Swindle of New Variety.
One of the cleverest swindles ever
worked and involving Rutland people.
has been revealed by three well-known
Rutland citizens receiving: letters from
reputable firms in New York, in which
these firms ask the recipients of the
letters if it would be convenient for
them to refund the money borrowed
while they were in the big city recent
ly. The letters came as a great
surprise and the remarkable case has
been placed in the hands of State's
Attorney Burt L. Stafford of Rutland.
Chas. H. Landon was asked by Ajax
Tire company for $50 he was supposed
to have received in New York recently.
A man appeared at the company's
office and showed the company's
stationery and represented himself as
Mr. Landon. As Landon has an auto
mobile department with his concern
and has done much trading, the com
pany immediately turned over the cash
to the stranger who stated that he had
run short of cash and wanted to get
home that night and couldn't wait for
more. Mr. Landon's telling his story.
revealed the fact that another business
man had received this week a dun for
$35 from the Orinoka Mills, one from
the Philadelphia office of the company
for $25 and one from the New York
office for $10. They tell the same
story as tbe Ajax people but are able
to give a good description of the man,
who is saia to be about five feet, eight
inches tall, light complexion, mous
tache and weighing about 190 pounds.
E. C. Tuttle and his son, Charles E.
Tuttle, also had the same game
worked with their name. The scheme
seems to be entirely new in the annals
of criminology. It is believed that it
is aone wim a conieaerate wno arrives1'
in a town, hangs about the business
men, possibly under the guise of a
salesman and manages to pick up
names, stationery and cards which he
sends to his confederate, who secures
the cash.
Governor Asked to Call Session.
The Progressive state committee
held a meeting with every county
represented at the Hotel Vermont in
Burlington last week. Among those
present were: M. M. Wilson and
Frazer Metzger of Randolph, D. E.
Martin of Rutland. W. H. Nichols of
Bennington, Prof. Raymond McFarlane
of Middlebury. E. L. Kelley of Salis
bury, E. H. Russell and Mrs. Guy B.
Horton of Burlington, W. A. Soule
of Alburgh, O. A. Rixford of Ryegate,
M. L. Azeltine of St. Albans, C. E.
Skinner of Orleans, W. J. Aldrich of
St. Johnsbury, E. A. Cook of Lyndon
ville, B. A. Suirner of Montpelier,
Glenn Lathrope and Amos Eaton of
South Royal ton, Dr. J. H. Blodgett of
Bellows Falls and E. W. Gibson of
Brattleboro. A resolution was unani
mously adopted asking Governor
Fletcher to call an extra session of the
legislature to pass a law providing for
the nomination of congressional state
and county officers by a direct vote of
the people.
An executive committee composed of
five members consisting of Dr. H.
Nelson Jackson of this city. Dr. W.
J. Aldrich of St. Johnsbury. W. H.
Nichols of Bennington, E. W. Gibson
of Brattleboro and March Wilson of
Randolph, was elected to have full
charge of the coming campaign.
The state campaigns, including
matters of finance, will be entirely in
the hand3 of this committee. A
legislative committee composed of E.
A. Cook of Lyndonville, Amos Eaton
of Royal ton, Arthur Vaughn and
Frazer Metzger of Randolph and Col.
Fred B. Thomas of Montpelier was
elected.
The entire state situation was can
vassed thoroughly and plans made for
the most aggressive campaign in the
history of this state. The party will
put a complete ticket in the field. No
thought of amalgamation of any kind
was entertained. '-The party now
presents a united front and will enter
the coming campaign confident of
success.
"Keep an Eye on 'Hod'."
Candidates for the Republican Con
gressional nomination are coming in
"thick and fast" over in the second
district. Porter N. Dale of Island
Pond is the latest announcement.
Then there is Alex Dunnett of St.
Johnsbury, who, although not announc
ing himself a candidate, is "men
tioned" by. his friends. Ex-Mayor
Gordon of Barre is a very much alive
candidate and has a lot of supporters.
But when you
tacks." Horace F.
favorite and could Lamoille county
have a say, he would be a winner,
hands d )wn, and he may anyhow, if
he will say he will accept the nomina
tion. Keep an eye on "Hod." Hyde
Park News and Citizen.
The Telephone Rates
The Reformer holds no brief for the
telephone companifis but it has felt all
along that a mountain was being
made out of a molehill in this tele
phone investigation. Perhaps the
weakest point in the whole proposition
was the report made last July by
Messrs. Cook and Graham who were
appointed special counsel to investi
gate the telephone companies. Their
chief recommendation a 20 per cent
reduction in toll rates throughout the
state is found by the public service
commission to be without justification,
and tends to strengthen the widely
shared belief that the Cook-Graham
investigation was superficial and
practically worthless. No doubt the
public service commission has the
power to revise property valuation
and maintenance charges when it
believes them exorbitant, and to
make rates based on its own figures,
but certainly the corporation affected
by such rulings cannot be blamed for
putting up a fight. There is a feeling
at the present time that corporations
have been "getting it in the neck to
an extent that is -seriously interfering
not only with their efficiency but with
the prosperity of the country. This
feelinjr is likely to manifest itself in
the case of the telephone companies,
and to result in a popular attitude of
sympathy for them. Certainly there
is nothing in the commission s report
to prove that the state made a very
good investment when it started the
investigation. Lower telephone rates
in Vermont are no nearer, and the
reason for them no further beyond
doubt, than before the investigation
started. Brattleboro Reformer.
Vermont Notes.
The Vermont Association of Boston
will hold its annual sugaring-off at
Horticultural hall, corner of Massa
chusetts avenue and Huntington avenue
on next Saturday evening, April 4.
Sugar, together with the usual
refreshments will be served. The
lecture hall will be used for dancing,
which may be continued from 7.30 to
12 o'clock. ,
After a whirlwind ten-day campaign
for the building fund of the Barre
hospital, which closed Saturday,
$50,000 is assured, $10,000 more than
the minimum mark set at the beginning
of the movement. The hospital has
now approximately $60,0.00 pledged, of
which $10,000 is for maintenance. On
the first day of the campaign the fund
leaped to nearly $30,000. One hundred
and fifty campaigners worked early
and late.
Off-hand History and Advice.
The silver or black fox industry
seems destined to figure in Vermont
discussion. Silver foxes are very
valuable for their furs and have been
successfully raised on Prince Edward
Island and in other parts of Canada.
Most of the money, however, is
alleged to have been made through
selling of stock in silver fox breeding
companies. In fact, the demand for
silver foxes for breeding purposes has
been so high for the last four years
that the owners could not afford to kill
them for their pelts. The result is a
great speculative enterprise which
started on Prince Edward Island and
has spread all over Canada and to
several of the states of the union.
Two companies have undertaken to do
business in Vermont. Of one of these
former Governor George H. Prouty of
Newport is president, while Hon.
Curtis S. Emery, also of Newport, is
vice-president of the other. The
business had hardly gotten under way
in this state before it got special
prominence from the refusal of Bank
Commissioner Frank C. Williams, like
wise of Newport to allow them to sell
stock in Vermont, under the blue-sky
law. The row that has been started
seems destined to make the political
campaign this, year look like a mere
sputtering spark. It is said that all
through northeastern Vermont, fox
breeding. fox companies and fox
profits are about the only subjects of
conversation. The excitement over
the business is not to be wondered at.
for twenty-one listed companies doing
business on on Prince Edward island
last year averaged to pay 98 per cent,
dividends on their capital stock. Ona
company paid 320 per cent, while the
lowest of the listed companies was
20 per cent. It should be remembered,
however, that the profits so far are not
on any firm basis, but merely represent
speculation. So many people are
attracted by the big profits and are
anxious to get into the business that
the increase from the breeding pens
commands fabulous prices and the big
dividends depend largely on how long
this demand keeps up. There is good
reason to believe that good profits will
eventually be made from breeding the
foxes for their furs, but this will be
business for experts and men capable
of careful study and application like
the breeding of Jersey cattle or high
grade thoroughbred stock of any kind.
No one should invest in the silver fox
industry any more money than they
can afford to lose in case anything
should go wrong. Bennington Banner.
The Hour and the Man.
The term of one of Vermont s
United States senators is about to
expire and under the new constitu
tional amendment, which provides for
the direct election of the members of
the upper branch of Congress, there
will devolve upon the voters of this
state the solemn duty of deciding by
direct vote at the polls who shall
succeed William P. Dillingham for the
six-year term beginning Mar. 3, 1915.
The Standard believes that in the
present movement for the election of
the Hon. Charles A. Prouty, a great
opportunity is presented to the voters
of Vermont to show their faith in
their works, to realize, in a large
measure, the high ideal of the office
seeking tbe man- and to bring new and
honorable prestige to the Green Moun
tain state. T
We would not ignore the service
which Senator Dillingham has rendeied
during his fourteen years in the sen
ate, and we heartily grant that he has
honestly and conscientiously striven to
perform his full duty as that duty has
appeared to him. His close study of the
immigration question has made him
an authority upon this subject and in
this line his service has been of great
value to the country. As a strong
admirer of Mr. Dillingham, the Stand
ard, while regretting its inability to
advocate his re-election, takes pleas
ure in conceding the fact that his
personal honor and integrity are with
out blemish, a high distinction for any
man who has been as long in public
life as has Vermont's senior senator.
For Mr. Dillingham has been a long
time in the public service and at the
advanced age of 71 years he could
well retire with accumulated honors.
The Standard's reasons for favoring
Mr. Prouty for the senatorship are
two-fold.
By temperament and association Mr.
Dillingham belongs to the old school
of statesmen, of whom it may be said
in all candor and sincerity and without
rancor and bitterness that, as regards
the great questions before the Ameri
can people today, and the attitude
toward those questions of the element
in congress with which Mr. Dillingham
is allied, a preponderating element of
Vermonters, as the Standard believes,
is not in sympathy or accord.
Ihe conservative wing of the Repub
lican party could not find a man of
better personal qualities than Mr.
Dillingham, and from their view point
of public Questions his candidacy
leaves nothing to be desired.
On the other hand the progressive
element need look no further than to
Charles A. Prouty, who stands as one 1
of the great leaders of progressive
thought in Republican policies.
A lew weeks ago the Standard
referred at length to Mr. Prouty's
attainments and great public service
as a member of the interstate com
merce commission through four admin
istrations, and a repetition of what
was then said is unnecessary. In fact
the whole country is acquainted with
Mr. Prouty's work and the reputation
it has brought him.
In connection, with the great ques
tions of the control of the trusts and
the supervision and regulation of the
railways, Mr. Prouty is one of the
most conspicuous personalities before
the American people today. In all his
long experience in dealing with these
matters, while courageously standing
ior ana safeguarding the rights of the
people, he has, with equal courage and
judicial poise, insisted upon the dis
pensing of even-handed justice to one
and all.
There is need for such a man in the
United States senate and Mr. Prouty,
in the prime of life and with a superior
equipment in natural ability and
experience, would be a powerful force
in the right solution of the momentous
questions that will engage the atten
tion of our highest legislative body.
The other reason for our advocacy of
Mr. Prouty, is because we welcome
the idea of the people seeking a public
servant wholly upon his merits.
Haunted by the memory of past
unsavory political contests, when
money has been the controlling and
determining factor, the voters can
turn to the coming senatorial cam
paign as one that should be clean and
wholesome, with the question brought
directly home to each individual voter.
The Standard, as a believer in and
advocate of those governmental poli
cies and measures pr which Mr.
Prouty so conspicuously stands,
favors his election to the senate and
will do what it can, in all honesty and
decency, to bring it about. Enosburg
Standard.
What Would You Do with a Million
Dollars. -
The American magazine has been
offering prizes for the best letters
entitled ."What I Would Do with a
Million Dollars." The three prize-'
winning letters are published in the
April number. An extract from one
follows :
"Yes, if I had a -million dollars I
wouldn't try to turn it into a billion.
And I wouldn't go around building
libraries and churches, though nobody
thinks more highly of those philan
thropies than I do. But I'd seek out
old couples who have worked hard all
their lives, and I'd see that their last
years made up for all the hardships of
the years gone by so that they could
take leave of life with a sons: on their
lips instead of a moan. Then I'd
search out deserving young couples,
who with their little families are
trying to make a start. I'd give.
them just enough of a lift to keep
away that disheartenment which is
most despair ne: when it comes at a
cime when you in should still be dream
ing just enough of a lilt to keep
some of the sweetness of life in their
hearts, so they wouldn't grow old and
cross and crabby, with their dreams
all dead."
