MONDAY, SEPTEMBER 8, 1913. When you go to Canada leave your penny ante deck behind. The voice of Mauls will be the first po litical call for a long time. Mrs. Tankhurst as on the way over insure your plate gla windows. Japan has troubles of her own With out seeking more with the United States jwt at present. Thaw is being "hero-ed" up in Canada as he baa not been for seven long years and as he never- would be in the country where he killed Stanford White. , Less attention to financiering and en- largement and more attention to operat ing what they already have would be a fine polky for the New Haven system to follow for a. few -years to come. The railroad system, would come out bet' ter in the long run and it would give eminently more satisfactory service. It happens to be a Democrat this time but whether Democrat or Republican, doesn't seem juet right for cabinet members to go out on the etump for any party candidate. During Taft's admin- istration, Republicans in the cabinet for sook their office duties and forgot for the time-being that they were servants of the nation instead of a single party and went out electioneering for Reptib lican candidates. Last week Secretary of State Bryan likewise went into the tat of Maine and talked in favor of the Democratic candidate for Congress from the third district. In either case it doesn't seem right to do active service in a party campaign. The position of flagmen on trains ha assumed new and added importance since thn wreck at North" Haven, Conn. The flagman has a great deal of responaibil ity resting on lis shoulders. If he does not go back the full distance and set the danger signal for an oncoming tram he may cause a terrible wreck. If he delays in going bback he may be too late to atop the next train. If he quits his post of duty while flagging the train before ho get the signal from his en gine that his train as ready to leave then !his dereliction may be the means of blotting out many lives. If he does nu merous other things, or if he does not do various-things, there are dire possi bilities for disaster. Therefore, the rail roads ought to be very careful to de termine the disposition of the men be fore they set them to work as flagmen. It is no place for a careless or lazy man. The procedure' of the Vermont public service commission in ordering a bear ing on question of proposed reduction of rates charged by telephone cothpames in Vermont is entirely regular and meets with the approval of the general public of the state. Due warning ha been given to the companies to be represented at the hearing, which will be held at the State House in Montpelier, begin ning with the 30th of the present month, at which the defending companies are promised a chance to state their cases and object to the proposed reduction) if they wih. That is procedure according to law and according to reason as well. Now let the hearing be conducted as outlined, with plenty of opportunity given to the companies so that they will not have the chance to accuse the state of "railroading" the proposal through or using the' steam-roller over the compan ies. A GAME GROWING IN POPULARITY While the professional game of base ball has been drawing its surging crowds, while tennis has its thousands of de votees and while college football is the great magnet of the fall season, it never theloss must be allowed that golf does not take a back seat to any of them in the intensity of interest afforded a great number of people. For instance, the final match at Garden City last Fri- lay for the amateur championship of the United States was followed by a "gallery" estimated at 5,000 people, each one of whom felt the impulses that ac tuated the contestants almost as much as if tlicy themselves were playing in the match. It was an almost inaudiable Oh'1 as a favorite player made a slice into the rough, sounding like a wail of despair; and it was nn exultant "Ah" when a favorite made a clean, straight shot that carried well toward the green. VA know of no game like golf in which the spectators feel as the players must feel in making each .hot; the spectators involuntarly place themoelveS in the shoes of the players and speculate on what they would have done had they been playing, if they would hare been nervous and topped the ball or if they would have miesed an easy putt for a three. Each spectator permits himself the pleasure, and at the m time the mental strain., of being the player. Consequently he feels the game; he is much a part of it u the player U. S. DEPOSITORY THie toly Mat SoeM Baiiilk Under Government Control Interest in the savings department credited to ac counts July 1st and January 1st. The People's National Bank themselves. And when so many a 4,000 or 5,000 men, women and children fol low a match around several miles of the golf course to watch each stroke of the two players, it is a marked tribute to the game of golf and emphasizes the hold which it has on its followers. In cidentally, it may be remarked that so large an attendance, with it outcrop ping of distracting little incidents, some times affects the contestants, as, for ex ample, when John G. Anderson, who went down to defeat before Jerome Travers last Friday, wag put out of form momentarily by a young boy's ob trusion on Anderson's line of vision aa he was making a shot, causing the play er to foozle and lose distance and direc tion. Meanwhile, Travers, the veteran of many such, trying battles, was play ing the1 cool game of which the is capable and finally pulled out over, his worthy competitor in a great content. It was, a pronounced triumph for Travera, his fourth consecutive amateur champion ship of the United States, and the match a decided advance for the game in pub lic importance. t CURRENT COMMENT State Expenses and Budget "Not much consolation is to be had out of the paragraph in The Benning ton Banner, 'in which the editor, Lieu tenant-Governor Howe, informs us that the state's present expenditure, upward of $3,000,000, is as nothing to the show- ing to be made next year, jsn t it time for a halt in the state's extravagant ex penditure T" Fair Haven Era. Ihe Cost of government is naturally increasing with the increase ot focuu istic tendencies. When a government undertakes to secure pure food for the people; when it adopts factory inspec tion laws, in fact, whenever it takes any new step to safeguard the public, it has to pay its way. The theory is that the resulting benefits more than offset the expense. For instance, ill health reduces the earning power of the individual. Then the state steps in and says that the laborer shall work amid surround ings that will not bring so many days of sickness as formerly. It takes money to do this, but it is figured that the in creased earning power of the individual will permit him easily to pay the in creased tax and have a "profit" from the transaction, if such terms may be used In this connection. But this isn't the popular way of looking at it, for the increased tax is very plain, while the benefits which the increase purchases do not show up plainly even if they are there. But the widening of the scope of gov ernmental interference in everyday life does not account for all of the increase in the cost of running a state. If it did, there wouldn t be so much complaint as is now being heard- Vermont ia on the rieht road which leads to the infusion of strictly business methods in the ad ministration of state affairs. The pass- ng of the purchasing agent act shows that. But the people want more for their dollar than they are now getting. A whole lot of money is spent in pass ing foolish, trilling, and unneeded legis lation. The people .want less expense on the part of the legislature itself. They want business done as promptly as is consistent with the doing of good work. One method of keeping track of ex penses and ot guiumg a legislature which has been suggested by I he Mes senger for years is the budget system. There is absolutely no reason why Ver mont should not have as complete a budget as any government on the face of the earth. It is no argument to say that Vermont doesn't need one because it is a small state. Granted it is a small state, it nevertheless remains that it is spending the tax of every individual in the state lust as much as if it were a thousand times more populous than it now is. And if it is small, all the more reason why it should take all pre cautions to spend what it has wisely and well, for it is in competition with other richer and more populous states. This matter of state expenses is most important. It ought not to be permitted to slip and slide along. The state must increasingly appropriate if it is to keep in the procession of ita sister common wealths, and good financing demands a modern budget system. St. Albans Messenger. . Card of Thank.
