For the Freeman.
MOdOcS and Temperance.

The editor of the Argus and Patriot, in
some of his last issues, has found new name
for the men and women of Montpelier who
are at work to enforce the law in relation tc
the sale OF intoxicating drinks. The editor
had called them d" raiders " and " ramrods, y
and many other such pet names before.
We should judge from the paper that the
editor, though pretending to be temperance
man, is in favor of the open violation of the
law in the sale of liquor, though greatly in
favor of due observance of the law as to street
fights and all other subjects, except the sale Of
liquor in violation of law.
| cannot conceive what similitude there is
between the temperance men and women of
Montpelier and the Modocs of the West
The temperance people are trying to enforce
law and promote peace and good will among
men, while the Modocs are waging war
against civilization. For' this purpose they
secreted themselves in thej lava beds, and
other secret places, to stealthily surprise and
scalp their victims.
think the editor has made a mistake in
the use of the word sc Modoc-' If he had ap-
piled it to King Alcohol, and his army of rum
sellers, he would have made first-rate COM
parison.
The King, as We have learned, is hid some
where in the lava beds Of Montpelier, SO Sc
curely that the off ,ers with search warrants
cannot find him: yet We all know that, like
the Modocs in the western lava beds, he is
constantly scattering death among the peo-
pie.
There is one thing certain, that however

how far, if at ali, the Congress of the United
States has the right to interfere is an inde-
pendent branch of inquiry. Itshould not be
forgotten that railroads are serviceable it is
just to hold them to the performance. in a
satisfactory manner, of their business it is
important that they should be taught that
they are the creatures and the servants of the
people and not their masters; it is of the
greatest consequence that both corporations
and people should see that their interests are
so far interviewer that neither can afford, in
the long run. to deal unjustly with the other.
The farmers have profted greatly by the
building of railroads; more, undoubtedly,
as a class, than any other class of the people
except the few who have control of the rail-
roads, and much more than the men whose
money hasi built the railroads; and while
they and the people have the right to insist
that corporations shall use their franchises
in the public interest, so far as reasonable
regard for the interest of the corporations will
permit, nothing will be gained and much may
be lost by inconsiderate, political action and
legislation, based upon general denunciation
of corporations as monopolies seeking only to
defraud and despoil the people c. W. W

loudly the.editor of the Argus and Patriot may
talk, he is not Capt. Jack, for the Captain
is a man of courage and full Of fight.
The editor says this Modoc war is driving
business away from Montpelier-that Calais
Middlesex and Barre are prospecting at the
expense of Montpelier.
We read in the papers that some of the
Modocs have escaped from the western lava
beds, and are scattering through the country
with the Union troops in pursuit. The articles
in the Argus and Patriot would imply that
King Alcohol was fleeing from Montpelier
to the surrounding towns to scatter desolation
and death in his path, as the Modocs escaped
from the lava beds. If so, our temperance
friends in the adjoining towns should see
that Capt. Jack and his band are not secreted
in their midst to slay and scalp their neigh
bors.
II We are to understand from the Argus
and Patriot that there is loss of prosperi-
ty to Montpelier, caused by the efforts to
suppress the illegal sale of intoxicating Ii
quors, then we are to understand that rum
and trade have gone together to other towns.
think the man who would advocate the un-
lawful sale of intoxicating drinks to bring
business into the place, to be consistent.
should recommend that public gaming houses,
houses of ill-fame, and places for all manner
of vice and crime, should be tolerated, as
they would bring customers into town and
thus increase it's business and their sup
preston would draw business away. There
is no single source of human misery that can
equal the free sale of intoxicating drinks.
and it is the ssepping-stone to most of the
other vices aud crimes in community.
We trust that hereafter the editor of
the Argus and Iatriot will change the ap-
pellation of the word g Modoc,'' to the rum
seller, and call the men and women on their
track Union soldiers, fighting to maintain
the peace and prosperity of the community.

The Enthusiastically Robson has
been examining Capt. Tyson and his rescued
companions at Washington. He has become
satisfied that Capt. Halls death was from
natural causes, and that the suspicious of
poisoning were unfounded and unjust. Also
that the separation of the party on the ice
foe from the Polaris, was purely accidental,
and that Capt. Buddington was not guilty of
deserving them willfully. A strong belief is
entertained that the Polaris and the rem
nant of her crew will yet escape the Arctic
perils by which they were enyironed when
they parted from Capt. Tyson.

Snow AT TIE WHITE MoUNTANs.-Early
visitors to the w hite Mountain region this
summer will find a greater amount of snow
about the ravines than has remained until so
late date for many years. Prof. Hunting
ton, in recent jou rney through the White
Mountain Notch, found only one snow drift
in the road, and that short distance from
the Wiley House. At the beginning of the
present month there was a drift ten feet
deep, twenty feet wide and thirty feet long
in rear of the Profile House, and in close
proximity to the dining-room.
The SroKss CAss.-The New York Court 0
Appeals yesterday unanimously granted
Stokes new trial. Judge Grover. delivering
the opinion, said the error was committed in
rejecting the testimony offered by the accus-
ed, to prove deceased short time before his
death made violent threats against him, while
evidence OF threats made by the deceasel
which had been communicated to accused
was received by court.
The threatened troubles in Arkansas have
happily been postponed, if not absolutely
prevented. The Arguments in the gu1 gar
ranto proceedings against Governor Baxter
closed Wednesday, and after several hours
deliberation the court decided that L had no
jurisdiction, the legislature having confirmed
the election of Governor Blxter, whe her

The San Francisco people are prosecuting
the Cinnamon with special ordinances. John
likes to sleep thick and cheap, aud the au-
thorities provide that he must have five hun
dred cubic feet of air to breathe in his lodg-
ings, under penalty OF a severe fine. When
John refuses to pay, they send him to Jail,
and cut off his pig-tail, which ruins Johns
happiness, and hurts his conscience. They
also are taking measures to prevent the send
ing of dead Cinnamon home. China being
a celestial kingdom, its inhabitants think
they can step into a kindred one only from
it's sacred soil. If they cannot be sent back
they will not leave, and SO these liberal
minded Californians propose to keep them
away by not letting them go back.
The serious questions that attend the pos
sible influx of hordes of Chinese, cannot JUS
tify these petty measures to b)ther the we'll
behaved celestials. The only trouble with
John is, there are 50 many of him. He is
too much of a repetend.
