'EIne Farmers Mar against RAILWAYS
In Illinois particularly and in the Wes
tern States generally Il systematic agita-
ton has began among the farmers to Sc
cure the passage OF laws to regulate the
tolls charged for passengers and freight
This is but the beginning of long an,!
bitter fight between the producers and
the carriers OF passengers and freight
1t Is IN the nature OF a strike against the
extortlons OF organized capital, which
necessarily will produce Inconvenience
and losses to both parties. Agitation.
legislation, and litigation will follow in
quick succession; then viii come eva
sions and more legislation, an appeal to
the Supreme Court Of the United States,
aud finally q combustion of both inter
ests
After ten year straggle it will be
found that isolated State legislation can
not check the evil, because if products
are to be delivered at New York, local
legislation OF the several States, unless
UNIFORM, caunot afford relief. After this
has become manifest the General Gov
ernnent viii be appealed 10, and the TO-
cal struggle Will be nationaIlzed Agi
tatlon, legislation. evasion, and litigation
Wlii again follow, aid GoYernment will
be urged TO conetrues doublo-truck road
beds ior the purpose CT permitting every
citizen to run u freight train under GER
tam regulations as to speed, and ON the
payment OF u moderate toll and finally
the Government here will have to do,
what most governments on the contineut
have done, and what the English Gov
eminent Is about to do-take the rail
ways at valuation, anu run them for
the sole benefit and convenience OF the
people.
We know full well that it would be Il
waste of words 10 urge this remedy at
this time. Ii the American nation is
noted tor one thing mere than for all
others, it is, that it will not accept the
experience OF other people in matters OF
tariffs, taxatlons, telegraphs, or rail-
ways, but that it insists III working out
Its own destiny. This is costly TO be
sure, but when NE have once settled on
principle, drawn from our dear-bought
experience, we hold CT 10 it all The more
intelligeniy and tenaciously.
We have no coubt but the far nIers
have the right on their side. The rail
ways have of late given the least COM
fort, safety, and accommodation for the
most money. and the sooner our railway
princes discover that they cannot impose
upon the community with perfect inn
munity, the better
Thus far the resolutions Of the farmers
have been earnest but temperate, and it
would be well if the railway managers
would come together and inaugurate Il
friendly conference and measures to
abate as many Of the just grievances Of
the public as possible
One Of the great difficulties under
which all railways labor is the fact that
the stock ard mortgage bonds together
represent a fictitious Indebtedness.
Many railway, which could be built
for $25, 900 to the mile and fully equip
ped, is crippled by aR Indebtedness of
twice that sum per mile. This fictitious
value must first be wiped out before re-
lief can be obtained

Second Congressional District.

The Proctorsville correspondent of
the Rutland Herald. who uses the in
itials of Hon. Clark II. Chapman, makes
the following predictions concerning
matters in the Second Congressional
District:
1.-The death of Judge Steele naturally
calls up conversation concerning his
sharp contest with Judge Poland for the
Congressional nomination in this dis
trict last fall. Poland and his friends
complained that Steele stole his thunder
while he WAS away ont in Utah attend
ing to his law business and to Emma
silver mines for his clients. and that it
was not fair to commence the canvass
without notice to the present incum-
bent. The gifted and lamented Steele
is indeed gone, but his devoted friends
will hardly he reconciled to allow Judge
Poland to enjoy his back pay in quiet.
and he his own successor without an
other effort to supplant the surviving
contestant, who will then have enjoyed
the honors and emoluments of office
State and National-for nearly thirty
consecutive years, by younger man of
equal integrity, purity and capacity for
good service in Congress. If Judge
HOyt ii. Wheeler. of Jamaica, can be
induced to step down from the honora-
BILE position he now holds and take the
nomination he will he likely to get it.
Otherwise tie Hon. VIM. ii. Walker, of
Ludlow, who though a younger man
than he looks to be, has obtained the
front rank i'll the legal profession, will
he very likely to crowd closely upon
the heels of the 'BishOD'' os the able
ex-senator and present incumbent is
not inaptly sometimes called, in the
Congressional race. 1t is, we know,
rather soon to name candidates, but if
notice could be served thus early on
parties who felt SO hurt last fall, that
they were taken unawares, they would
at least have to get another excuse for
fault finding.
To this list the Free Press .shears"
that Col. Kittredge Haskins of Brattle-
boro, will also be in the field for the
nomination. Next

A Good Farm.

The Star is writing up some OF the
good farms in Danville, and IN It's last
number has this about the old Chamber
lin place in the northeast part OF the
town:
A great many years ago-towaros
the close of the last century-James
Chamberlin made 'pitch" there, anu
after many years of industry, anu s'lIct
economy. on the part OF hlmser anu
family. succeeded in clearing up the
farm. Qeaving, however, about lou acres
of excellent wood land, good deal OF
which is still standing) and raised large
crops. The original proprietor Hved
to good old age, his wife surviving
him several years. The farm-com-
prising full 400 acres-was left to Harry
Chamberlin, Ia son of the first owner)
who deceased some four or five years
since. The son was equal to the father,
and from the products of the farm made
money gradually but surely-puttlng
almost every dollar gained, ont at III
terest-and at his death was worth
nearly 100000. By marriage, the real
estate and other property, fell to Mrs.
Chamherlin's daughter, wife of +. X.
Palmer, who has two children. The
farm is no doubt the largest owned 10y
any one person in town. 1t Is still
cultivated with good deal of industry
and care, yielding abundant crops.
We are informed that Mr.. Palmer cuts
from it over a hundred tons of hay
annually-all of which is generally fed
out Oh the place-together with other
good crops of various kinds. Mr..
Palmer, it is said, keeps the largest
flock of sheep of any farmer in town,
and realizes large profits from his sales
of wool. The farm has very large
sugar orchard, and several thousand
trees could be tapped annually, but
generally Mr.. p, taps only about 500.
On the whole, the "Chamberlin place
is notable one, not only for lis pro-
ductiveness as farm, hut from the
fact that it has never changed hands,
being owned by some members of the
family for nearly a century.

Vice President Wilson.

There have been various reports con-
corning the health of Vice President
Wilson. The latest and most encourag-
ing is that of the Boston Journal. That
paper sent reporter to Natick, who
had an interview with him. Gen. Will
son is reported to have said that he was
at work on his 'Slave Power in Amer
lea" when the stroke came. The
muscles affected were those in the right
side of the face. He at once took medi-
cal advice, was forbidden to read or
write, and subjected to a treatment that
has wrought a slow but unmistakable
improvement. He sleeps well, enjoys
his meals, and is assured by his doctor
that he is recovering. His voice isn't
quite natural yet, but the muscles of
the forehead and cheek are perceptibly
resuming their normal action. Yester-
day he had decided to discontinue the
medicine and the ice-packs hitherto ap-
piled to his back, with the view of
testing the reality and permanence OF
the apparent gains. He does not con-
template any surgical operation, danger
Gus or otherwise but he does feel con
fident that the beginning of the season
will find him in his place in the Senate
restored to health and ready for bust
ness. Ellis neighbors," the reporter
adds, "do not speak so hopefully
Other and previous reports were to the
following effect -
The serious nature of Vice President
Wilson's disease is confirmed by the
announcement Of the probable necessity
