Therefore, for four- teen years she was an indpendent republic, with a Governor and Legislature. In 1778 New Hampshire and New York en- tered into an agreement to divide Vermont be- tween them, making the line along the summit of the Gireen Mountains.’ This ignored the claims of Massachusetts, and the latter State’'s moral support was from that time given the con- tentions of the Green Mountain Boys for separate identity. Vermont, countering against New Hampshire's persistent claims, admitted, in 1778, gixteen New Hampshire townships lying east of the Connecticut River. In 1782 Vermont and | New #ampshire adjusted their differences ,urulng to the west bank of the Connecticut River as the boundary line. This settlement gave | Vermont independence the moral sapport of New Hampshire. New York did not relinquish her claims until 1790, when it was understood be- * tween them that Vermont would ask for admis- sion to the Union as a State. These boundary disputes led to mnegotiations in 1778-81 between Vermonters and representa- _tives of Great Britain for the recognition of ' Vermont as an independent British Colony like mluh Ethan Allen favored the proposal, = m the successes of American Revolutionary and the ties, resulting from consanguinity was the leader othe an adopted her own was in sessi as an as to 24 Treadwell and!

It was over this northern isthmus, according to legend, lhat the adventuring Orientals came to found the races that we call aboriginal, and that modern history has classified as various tribes of “In- dians.” | There may be good diggings fh the buried beaches of Nome. It may be possible to determine something of their value by deep dredging. If the sands are as rich as were found on the levels above tidewater the old camp might expect an- other stampede and revival. The South Wakes Up. the northern Suryey Their e they In very (New \'urk World.) About a month ago Mr. Julian Harris, editor of the Columbus, Ga., Enquirer-Sun, wrote in the New York Times that the South had at last become aroused over floggings and that presently we might expect to see something done about them. Since he published his article events have proved that he was right. In Georgia, the lead- ers in two notorious floggingscases have been convicted and sent to prison. ~In Alabama, par- ticipants in two other notorious flgggings have been convicted, and either sent to prison or fined. 1In addition, there is various evidence that enlightened opinion in the South means business. In Alabama, Gov. Bibb Graves, al- though himself a Klansmen, has condemned flog- gings, and it is perhaps due to his attitude that recent prosecutions have been undertaken. In Tennessee, the Masons have declared that they will do all in thir power to enforce law and order. In Florida, Gov. John Martin has served notice that floggings must cease, and in at least one instance has notified County authorities that any more laxity on their part' will be the signal | for martial law. | The South, obviously, is waking up to the necessity of re-establishing ‘its repute. A little more of the resolution which its officials have !shown recently and it can stamp out flogging al- together. For it is no secret that the South has been cursed with ku-kluckery in recent years largely because its officials have not had the courage to make a determined fight against it. Mr. Lowman asks for 30,000 men to enforce Prohibition in the district of New York. That is just about twice as many men for the en- forcement of a single law as mnow enforce all other laws in New York City—from speeding on the streets to hurzlary and arson.—(New York World.) | \ It worst should come to worst, and we should have to admit that there may be a little un- employment here and there, we can easily blame it on the impossibility of recovering with abso- lute completeness in a few vears from the utter: wrack and ruin directly due to Woodrow Wilson, if mot Grover.
