Is quite the moat striking on thus tar
achieved by navigators ol tb air. Zep
pelin's dirigible has travelled many miles
further, and the Wright aeroplanists have
outflown this one but not in a single
straightaway course, and especially not in
such a spectacular and politically Impor
tant way. Englishmen, who have been
shivering lest their "tight little isle"
should some day be at the merry ot toes
w horn their nsvat broadsides could not
repulse, awake now to the actual reality.
If Frenchmen, or, worse yet, the dreaded
Germans, can fly over and land on their
domain in a single night, what use is
their billion dollar navy and what pro
tection is there against the invasion that
has been 'the nightmare of Britons for
generations T One might reply by say
ing that it is no further across to the con
tinent from England thau tie other way,
and that British skill should provide avi
ators able to invade as well as France
and Germany. But the British are thus
far backward in aerial navigation and do
not take to it readily. They somehow
seem to feel that any progress in tbst di
rection means a loss of prestige and pow
er on the sea. Now their distress will be
sad to witness.

Another "harmless" lunatio who

One thing is sore, the voters ot tbis
state do not approve the way tbe senators
from Vermont voted in raising tb duty
of paper from f 2 to ft per ton. Tbis is
one of tbe infant industries that do not
need protection and a tax on knowledge
is always odious. Vergennes Vermonter.
Tbis statement may be a trifle mislead
ing. The present or Dingley rate on
news paper is fS per ton. The' Payne or
House bill reduced it to 2. Tb Senate
looked the matter over and thought ft, or
a one-third reduction from present rate,
would be fair all around. At this writ
ing it is quite likely there will be a com
promise on f 3 per ton, which would be I
50 per cent cut from tbe Dingley duty,
It seems to be conceded that a heavy re
duction should be mad. Tbe increasing
sjarcity of pulp wood and tbe high pro
tection given the manufacturers have re
sulted, under the operation of a big trust
in control, to rsiae tbe price of paper ma
terially. If it were possible to secure
Canadian paper when tbe home price is
unreasonably high, it would be a great
boon to the buyers. The publishers can
not advance their rates as raw materials
go up, but must stand the squeeze. Con
gress seems disposed to favor'tbera to the
point of lowering the duty as much aa It
can without bringing ruin upon tbe very
large paper making industry.

Pointed Words to Congressmen.
Since the Dingley law went into effect
twelve years ago tbe working man who
can afford to pay only f 10 to f 12 for a
suit of clothes has gotten for that money
net better falue than he could for f7 be

lowed lo pass tbe pending tariff bill in
the shape they are trying to, it mean
that a f 10 or f 12 suit -will be cut another
quarter in actual value and will be worth
no'.more than a suit that could be bought soldiers
for f 5 to 6 twelve years ago. Tbe mid

RACE ISSUE AT HOME.
Tbe coming ot a negro cavalry regi

the race iaaue right home to the people of
that section of the state. From reports it

Those Entrance Exams.
It la reasonable to assume that 75 per
cent of the boys and gitla from tbe rural
districts who took tbe high school en
trance examinations recently in West
Brattieboro could pass a satisfactory test
if the questions were confined to the in
struction received from the text books.
Some nf the questions were absurd, any
way, tor such an examination, and it
wa not a square deal to give tbe children
a mental gruelling on subjects which had
not been brought to their attention. It
1 understood thst in physiology tbe
questions conformed to the text books
and that a large percentage of the papers
were satisfactory. Tbe policy of our
schools ought to be one ot encourage
ment,' rather than of repression or sup
pression. Tbs children should be guid
ed and encouraged to continue in school.
Barred from tbe high schools by too
stringent tests tbey are likely to drop out
of school life altogether and to go to
work at a time when tbey should be pre
paring themselves for mature lite by
study. We are likely to lessen tbe quali
ty of our future citizenship by driving
boys and girls in their early teens out of
tbe schools if absurd examinations like

baa set the date -of its biennial summer

considered to be tbe date ot tbe formal
opening of tbe ensuing gubernatorial
canvass. Tbis year the leagoe is to have

Cross Brothers, the leading granite
firm in Nortbfleld, has been incorporated

tbey poshed on, Cnslly acquiring a large

largely different, though not necessarily
a better, view. When the negro fails to
measure up to our ideas, we condemn
him, draw away from him, leave him to
his fate and go our own way.
The colored soldier in tbe service ot'
the United States has been a success
when there was work cut out tor him.
We whites are very glad to know what
be did in the Civil war, in tbe Spanish
war, in tbe Philippines, on tbe plains,
but we forget this when asked to sit be
side him at the theatre or hotel. Then
he is just a plain nigger and our noses go
up io disgust.
It would be aa bad in Vermont as it is
anywhere else if we had as many of them.
It is race feeling. It cannot be ex
plained. It cannot be justified. It is just
so, and nntil Anglo-Saxon feeling
changes it cannot be different. And we
expect that the residents ot the territory
surrounding Fort Etban Allen, where
these troopers sre, will become more and
more insistent for separate service and ac
commodations. It is not that the con
duct ot tbese troopers is worse than that
of the white soldier who have sometime
terrorized that locality and always been a
difficult proposition for the authorities,
but it is because they are negroes.

Color Line In Vermont?
Even before any provocation had been

snubbed member of the colored troop
which are now located at Fort Ethan Al

restaurants wheo tbe negroes entered.
There have also been hint that "Jim
Crow" ears between Burlington and the
U. S. post might be acceptable. Tbis
latter statement we believe to be little
more than fanciful, and it made at all,
was probably made by a silly person.
White people may leave restaurants if
tbey wish to but no community in Ver

With Dr. Mead a candidate, it ia prop
er to inquire what he represents. First
of all he is a man in advanced years
whose ambition includes th governor
ship of Vermont. His business record is
good. His Civil war record is creditable
and ba is said to be in an alliance offen
sive and defensive with Percival W.
Clement. Wealth, ambition and mean
ingful alliances make him a candidate
who is bound to cut something of a fig
ure in the coming contest. Give his
campaign organization and skilful nas
agement, and opponents will know that
be is running.
