The Reformer is one of the numerous state newspapers which believe that the outcome of the primary election in Ver mont one week from next Tuesday will be the nomination of Redfield Proctor for governor. In sharp contrast to the eh mpalgnwTcTi'rece' dedOie primaries of 1020, this year's canvass lias been extremely quiet. Lieutenant Governor Foot had the field to himself for a long time so long, in fact, that a consider able number of Republicans were of the opinion that no one could successfully contest the nomination with him. Since Mr. Proctor's entrance, however, there hiis been a steady drift in his direction, and while his candidacy cannot fairly bo saiil to have caused a sensation it apparently" brought together a large number of thoughtful Vermonters with a conviction that lie, mora nearly than his opponent typifies the kind of execu tive needed at Montpelier during the next two years. Personal qualifications for leadership, in the opinion of this paper, will rightly play an important part in the nomina tion of a governor this year. There are no widely divergent issues between the two candidates. The question for the average voter to decide is which is bet ter fitted by education, training, experi ence and temperament to be given the administration of Vermont's affairs. The Reforjner believes it. sees in Mr. Proc tor the kind of a man who will handle the job to the best of his ability, and it is convinced that his ability is greater than that of Mr. Foote. It is nothing apainst Mr. Proctor that he is a man of means, scion of a family whose name has been prominent in Vermont affairs for two generations. Mr. Proctor believes in reducing state expenses, keeping appropriations within proper and expected limits of income, a system whereby all state appropriations are considered at one time, abolishing or combining many state commissions and smaller departments, improving the country school, fewer and better school supervisors; building roads to stand the loads they have to carry, with good drainage, easy grades and wide curves, making those who use the roads hardest pay the most for so doing, restrictive legislation regarding bovine tuberculosis and reducing the appropriation therefor, a better primary law. His platform is sensible, his personal record is' beyond criticism, his interest in Vermont's problems sincere and intelligent. "DYING FOR IRELAND." Bernard Shaw, himself a loyal Irish man; Las been indulging in some plain remarks to his fellow-countrymen anent the recent guerilla warfare carried on by the republican faction. In his judg ment, "the luxury of dying for Ireland after doing Ireland all the damage he can" is all that Irish revolutionists can hope for henceforth. The verdict seems justified by recent Irish history. The rebels against the Free State have done their x utmost, without visible profit to anybody and with only harm to the great body of Irish people who, like the common peo ple everywhere, want peace and order and a chance to enjoy life and get ahead. - The assassination of Michael Collins has only emphasized the anomaly of this rebellion waged by a little, mis taken group of Irishmen against the wishes of the majority. Lamentable as that tragedy has been, it may serve a useful purpose by clarifying the situa tion. Tbe cyerpowering indignation of the Irish public may bring the rebels to their senses. The notice said to have been given by their leader, De Valera, that they might stop fighting if they wanted to, should help along this process of restoring san ity to a distressed land. Surely it is not necessary that Irishmen should be always dying for Ireland. The time has come to live for Ireland. A New York Herald reporter inter viewed yesterday a business man from Swanton, Xt., visiting the city, the con versation being mostly on the subject of Vermont's industries. The report as printed contains the following para graph which reveals some of the joys of maple sugar making hitherto up known, in this section at any rate: "A great treat for the children of A'ermont is to be allowed to take some of the sugar sap fresh from the tree and while it is still in liquid form place it in a cavity made in a cake of ice. It con geals into a wax-like mass that is eaten by the children with the same relish as if it were candy." A movement has been started irt New York to provide the public schools of the country with courses of instruction in honesty and an "honesty bureau" has been organized for the purpose of financing the idea. Home training and the old copy-book motto, "Honesty is the best policy," appear to be adequate no longer. The net profits of the Ford Motor company during the year up to last April total the snug little item of $G0, 000,000, and Mr. Ford doesn't propose to give any of it to the coal profiteers, either. A regulation urged in New York is to have no space heated above 6S degrees the coming season. A iot "of landlords and janitors will need no urging as it will mean no change in program. Leave some of your bank roll at home when you go to Boston. Crooks will be having their eyes out for Vermonters after having discovered one with $G00 in a handy-to-get-at pocket. "What is worse than . no front teeth in the corn season?" asks the Burling ton News. Only one thing, and that is no corn. Goodbye, August. You have identi fied yourself pretty thoroughly with the "wets." Highway Plaits. (Barre Times.) It has seemed odd that motorists en tering Bellows Falls from the north should have to cross over into New Hampshire in order to rxeb their objec tive point, besides being compelled to pay toll for passing over the Cheshire bridge, which spans the Connecticut river just north of Charlestown, N. II. Now plans are being laid to do away with this roundabout course and elimin ate the toll holdup by constructing a federal highway on the Vermont side of the river through a very pretty sec tion of Vermont. This project will furnish the missing link to a fine all Vermont trunk line. The first person to have his photo graph taken was an engineer named Shanks, who visited the inventor, Dag iierre. in Paris in 1S39. and suggested to him that his photographic process might be used to take portraits. Daguerre ex perimented with Shanks as his subject, and after the engineer had sat in the sun for a full hour a portrait was obtained.

But sables, ermine, things like these, suggest no death or pain, no cruel traps or snickersnees, no harmless creatures slain; slie doubtless thinks they grow on trees on some far tropic plain. She doubtless thinks the skins are brought from orchards in the fall; but what's the use Of tiresome thought? She's dressing for a ball, and she is hurried and distraught the tax? soon will call. If Aunt Samantha could behold the little furry things which perish in the snow and cold, in traps with rusty springs, she'd order all her ermine sold to freaks like queens and kings.
