Judge Barrett's Decision.

Friday Chancellor Barrett filed with the
Windsor county clerk his decision III the
Vermont and Canada railroad injunction
case, denying the temporary injunction.
The bill, of course, is held for hearing at
the regular term of court in December. 1t
is probable, however, that circumstances
may so alter the present aspect of the case,
or change the views of the parties interest
ed, that nothing more will ever come of 1t.
The truth is, Mr.. Hazen Of Hartford, one
of the orators in this bill, applied n more
effectual injunction at the meeting at Bel
lows Falls, April 29th, when he moved,
and the stockholders unanimously voted.
should not be delivered to the Central Yer
mont until the first of June, when the sum
OF Sl55,OOO for interest and incidental ex-
penses will become due under the contract,
and which must be paid before the compile
ton of the transfer. We do not believe the
Central Vermont intends to pay it or can
do so if it does intend We have not the
slightest confidence in the sincerity of their
negotiation with the Vermont and Cana
da. Pr0crastination is not only the thief
of time, but ii may sometimes be the thief
Of railroad. AS often, hitherto, as the
two contracting parties have been able to
come to the point Of executing the papers,
the Central Vermont has found some new
ground, not previously mentioned, for de-
lay. Ii will probably be 80 hereafter, Tor
meanwhile they continue in possession and
do not pay cent.
On the whole, therefore, We are glad of
Judge Barrett's decision, which, while it
undoubtedly proceeded on the ground that
the portion of the contract in dispute did
not work such q discrimination among the
stockholders as would justify the in,erfer-
ence OF q cour, of equity in advance of the
actual occurrence of the wrong, yet he could
not have been blind TO the fact that before
the next December term of court there
would occur an actual test of the contract,
II 1t shall not be abandoned, and that then,
If any relief Is needed, it can be applied
without mourning the risk of blocking q
transaction which it IL pretended will be
for the interest of ali.
The free opportunity, as well as the en-
tire responsibility, is now with the Central
Vermont i mere are no new conditions,
no orders OF court, no embarrassments but
their own, in the way of their now speedi-
ly completing the first step, which they
have been two years and half in taking,
for the consolidation of these roads and
their extrlcation from cbancery. People
will be curious to see what their next ex-
cuse will be-

The Whisky Tax.

The inference that the whisky tax is too
high, says the Springfield Republican,
seems to us to be hasty. 1t does not fol-
low that, because flfty-cent tax produced
more than two-dollar, it would also pro-
duce more than one-dollar or ninety-cent
tax, which is now in force. We believe
that tax of one dollar can be collected on
nine-tenths of the production of whisky in
this country, and, with a season of Mr..
Bristow's administration, from practically
the whole amount distilled, or as honestly
and closely as the average of taxes is col
lected. The tax on highwines in Great
Britain is stated to be $25 per gallon.
We ought to have a federal revenue of
$4,000, 900 year from liquors, and let
up a little on sugars and other articles
more necessary and salutarY for common
consumption.

Railroad Taxes.

The railroad companies have paid state
taxes aggregating $5O,384 for 1874. the
Boston and Names share being SEQ, 342.
The Maine Central holds out in its refusal
to pay, backed up by the recent decis-
ion of Judge Fox of the United States
Court at Portland, there being some pro-
visions in its charter bearing on the ques-
ton of taxation not found in the charter
of the roads that have paid. The Atlantic
and st. Lawrence and the Dexter and New
port corporations are with the Central road
in this matter. The amount assessed against
these roads Is S54, 1915.

The Sum oil the Political Blackboard

The problem put out TO the two political
parties is very simple In its terms, what
ever II may prove TO he in solution. How
to retain the votes they already have, how
TO secure the additional votes needed to
elect their men, that is all there is to IT,
The conditions are equally simple In
each party there are uneasy and dissatis-
fed elements. A large percentage of the
democrats, a still larger percentage of The
republicans, are profoundly DISCONTINUED
with the way in which their parties have
been Differed and managed in recent years
They have "stuck by in the hope of a
change for the better. But their attitude
during much of the time has been one Of
protest. Between the two parties the pc.
ltical plain is white with the tents of the
independent voters" How many there
are Of these detached and semi.detached
partisaps Is not certainly known. 1t seems
to be the general belief that there are
enough Of them TO constitute yeritable
balance OF power and their probable
Whereabouts next year is factor that en-
tiers into all intelligent political calcula-
tons.
The solution would seem to be equally
simple. " hat easier or surer way for
either party to retain its dissatisfied mem

for retaining deserters and securing re-

afiinities?

Children's Temperance Meeting

The second monthly meeting of the TEN.
perance workers was held on Saturday,
May Is, in the parlors of the Baptist
church. A good number of children were
by singing ave are coming" after which
Mrs. John B. Reynolds, president of the
society, read an appropriate selection of
scripture. Mrs. J. NJ. Haven then led in
prayer and the children sung Sup for the
right"
MRS. j. Il. REYNOLDS REMARKS.
Mrs. Reynolds said that she had always
| liked short texts and short sermons. She
would give the children one verse, which
they would please repeat after her (:
"Choose we this day whom ye will serve"
You have often thought what you will be;
when you have seen good, noble men and
women, you have said, II will be like
them, and when you have seen men reel
ing through the streets, you have said 81
will not be like them" Have YOU ever
thought that they were once little children
like yourselves, and that they have been
tempted even as you may be tempted and
have fallen The only safety for you is
in striving with all your might after the
right, and asking God to help you. She
then gave several illustrations of the evil
effects of using alcohol, and SAID that the
pledges which the children were to sign
and keep, were ready for them now. ANY
person signing this pledge might sign the
constitution and become a member of the
Temperance workers" Some of the
children had asked if their fathers aud
mothers might not sign the same pledge
with them. She had replied they would
be very much pleased to obtain such sigma
lures, and she asked the children to report
whether they could obtain their parents
signatures at the next meeting.
The temperance call was sung and quite
number of children signed the pledge.
The pledge and constitution, which we
gave in our report of the formation of the
society, were then read
Miss Nellie E. Lords class reci,ed some
verses, "We Help the Cause Along" one
of the little girls reciting verse and the
class reciting the chorus in concert. Willie
McCaffrie, of Miss Elite C. Spaulding's
class, recited "Taste Not" The meeting
sung "Touch Not the Cup; Caddie
Minis recited "The Workers" "The
Drunken Soliloquy," comic recitation,
was given remarkably well for young boy
by Stewart Hunter; and song, "Roam
Among the Angels was sung by Nellie
Reynolds and Hattie Ellis.
Mrs. j. M. Haven told an apt story illus
trating the value of temperance principles.
"The Battle Song" was then sung and the
meeting closed. The next meeting will be
held at the Congregational chapel on Sat-
urday, June 18th.

We fear that Jules Verne is right. He
makes one of his characters father the
theory that the time is coming when, on
account OF the intens' cold, neither animal
nor vegetable life will be possible on this
continent. Our experience during the past
winter and, even, down to yesterday, coolers
the theory with truth. With him, we do
net care to inquire whether this increase of
cold will be, is, due to the gradual decrease
of temperature in the sun, or to the gradual
extinction of the fires in the interior of the
globe it is enough to feel that we are be-
ing frozen out, and that ram even after the
middle of May congeals into snow or ice as
it approaches the earth. The old theory
relative to the exact geographical position
of Rutland will have to be abandoned.

Tobacco.

The Greenfield, Mass, farmers will raise
about two-thirds as much tobacco, this
year as last, but will heap their fertilizers
and manures on to their moving lands, and
expect to harvest larger crop of grass
than before for many years. Indeed, a
good quality of hay has long commanded
handsome prices, and many of the farmers
believe their income from this product will
be more sure than from the "weed.' A
larger amount of rye than usual Is also to
be raised.

Apparently well authenticated facts
seem to point Enthusiastically to the conclu-
sion that the fire of Saturday morning was
of incendiary origin. A discussion of these
circumstances, at this time, might interfere
with the due administration of justice, and,
while we refrain therefrom, we trust that
it may not be out of place to urge, upon
the proper authorities, tho imperative ne
cessity of sitting the matter TO the bottom.
Rutland cannot afford to harbor an un-
punished incendiary.

A CLINCHER.

When ono OF Bowling Green's advocates
is driven from one position to another, in
the discussion of the removal question, he
frequently straightens up with the air Of
ono coli lent of an easy victory, and
says; "GEoRGg LAsKEY has got more
money and pays more taxes than
any boly in Perrysburg." That is
true. Mr.. LNsKEY is undoubtedly the
most Wealthy man in our county, and
he has aocl nnlatei his property by close
attention to busineys and Intelligent in
vestm,nts. No man in the county has
been M ,re abused by citizens of Bowling
Green than NJ. LtSKgy, and they have
contributed nothing to his wealth, so far
as we know. But what has Mr.. LAsKEY'S
wealth got to do with the county scat ques-
ton? II is not even a citizen OF Pcrrys-
burg or BIwling Green. Hc is a retired
merchant, al estim lble citizen, and we
have NJ doubt ia in favor OF removal. But
suppose he Is rich as CRoEsUs, and that citi-
zens Of Perrysburg are rs poor as LAZARUS,
does that make it more convenient to ira
verse by-roais, through mul, to reach
Bowling Green than to take the cars and
go to Perrysburg? The question before
the P,ople is not one relating to the rela-
tive wealth OF in nlividuals, but to the rcla-
tive accessibility of Perrysburg and Bowl
ing Green. Elch person must determine
this question for himself, uninnuenced by
considerations affecting the interests OF
others entirely free from mere personal or
local prejudices. 1t will not pay in this
case, any more than in others, to bite of
the nose to spite the face; and it would be
exceedingly foolish for man to vote him
self into a state of perpetual inconvenience
IN annoyance, even though Mr.. LAsKEY
sho Ill pay more taxes than all the bal
ance of the county.
