Vermont watchman and State journal. [volume] (Montpelier, Vt.) 1836-1883, 1878-10-16

The bill introduced by Mr.. Cinnamon, of
Hyde Park, on Thursday, relative to our
grand list system, is, virtually, the measure
presented by Mr.. Sabin, of this place, in the
last Legislature. 1t provides that the tax
payers of this state should make returns to
the listers Of their respective towns under
oath. There can be no question that under
our present law the burdens of taxation are
very unequally borne. The real estate vir-
tually pays the taxes. And not only this,
but the mortgaged real estate pays double
taxes-upon its own valuation-and upon
the mortgage in addition. Under our pres
ent law, or rather under vicious practices
under the law, the most pernicious system
of taxation devisable obtains, Personal
property of the most desirable character
such as bonds and stocks of every descrip-
tion-pays a very small portion of our now
heavy taxes. Whether the bill introduced
furnishes this the easiest and most desirable
solution of the question, may be matter of
doubt. But that some very radical legisla-
ton upon this subject is essential, can be a
matter of no doubt whatever. We commend
the matter to the serious and careful consid
Grafton of the General Assembly. They
can spend their time aud thoughts upon nc
more important subject

A BomshelI in the House.

Under the above head the last Cdledonidn
has the following "On Tuesday OF this
week, Judge Poland introduced bill into
the Legislature providing that any ten vot-
ers of the state may make complaint to the
Supreme Court and have the question de-
cided whether the Vermont University and
State Agricultural College at Burlington
has failed to carry out the act appropriating
money to the Agricultural College The
bill is supplemented by very strong reso-
luton, charging the utter failure OF the Col
lege to perform its duty and instructing the
Judiciary Committee to investigate the
matter and report to the House by bill or
otherwise.
"Judge Poland explained that he intro
duced the resolution at the request Of some
of the leading agriculturists of the state
who believed the fund of the Agricultural
College was being diverted from its legiti-
mate purpose. It is well known that this
matter has been agitated throughout the
state for several years past, and four years
ago there was an effort to make it a subject
of legislative enquiry, but no satisfactory
result was obtained. We understand the
Agricultural College draws some eight or
nine thousand dollars from the state an
nually, and if the funds are misappropriated
it is time the leak was stopped.
"lf we mistake not this Agricultural Col.
lege was a pet scheme of Senator Morrill,
who was thus far been quite successful in
keeping in favor with the farming class
and now that Judge Poland has bearded the
lion in his den-or rather attacked the cock
on his own dunghill, the people may as well
prepare to see the fur fly"

What VIII Come of 1t?

As was expected the introduction of the
resolution and bill looking toward an inves-
tigation as to the misapplication of the
agricultural fund at once brought the Bur
lington lobby to the capital, and warm work
may be expected, 1t is evident that the
fight will be sharp one, and the University
will bring to its aid all those powerful inhu-
ences which have heretofore prevented a
thorough investigation of the charges made
against it. 1t has also brought hither
several of the leading agriculturists of the
state, who have been watching and hoping
for propitious time to get this matter fairly
before the legislature. That time seems to
be at hand. The legislature is made up al.
most entirely OF intelligent farmers, promi-
nent among whom are several who have had
this matter under consideration, and been
looking for relief for several years. If the
members will examine the subject thor
oughly, and avail themselves of the evidence
bearing upon the case, which is at hand, and,
being convinced of the wrong which is being
perpetrated against the agricultural interests
of the state, will rally to the support OF
the measure, there can be no doubt of its
success. If the farmers do not avail them
selves of the opportunity so propitiously Of
fered to secure their rights against arrogant
aggression, let them ever after hold theil
peace and fully acknowledge their masters
1t is to be expected that all sorts OF collat
eral issues will be brought in to hide
from view this one main question ant
prejudice men against the movement. i
will be well for the members to keep thei
ewes well open.

Last Weeks Elections.

The news from the Western elections is
wonderfully re-assuring to the Republicans,
1t indicates clearly that the greenback
shower isn't going to be so very serious
after ALL The democratic majority of over
twenty thousand in Ohio last year has been
wiped out, and the Republican majority in
the state restored, and increased over what
it stood in the Presidential year. Initiation,
anti-resumption, greenbackism and the cry
of fraud have not availed to defeat the Re-
publicans, the party Of resumption and a
sound financial policy. The disaffection to
Hayes Southern policy and to his purgation
of politics from the federal ofice.holders has
passed away, and the general success of his
administration is now Endorsed. Maladmin-
istration in the state and the gerrymandering
of the Congressional districts have not i'm
proved the democratic standing at home.
The Republicans have gained somewhat in
members of Congress, but just how much is
not yet settled.
In Iowa, the Des Moines State Register
claims a Republican majority in the state of
over thirty thousand over all opposition,
which will be Republican gain of twenty
thousand over last year. The Register also
claims the election Of the entire Republican
delegation to Congress, with none of the
Republican candidates receiving less than
two thousand majority.
In Indiana the democrats seem to have
held their own in the Congressional delega-
ton, though in the legislature parties are
very evenly balanced.
The effect of these elections upon the
Massachusetts, canvass will be very marked,
as it will serve to restore confidence to
the Republicans and prick the bubble Of
Butlerism.

How OTHERS SEE IT.-The Republican
Observer says a. letter in the Burlington
Free Press of October 9th, dated at Mont
pelier, but thought by some to be written in
Burlington by the editor, exhibits little
ness and meanness below the smallest coun-
try editor. The writer exhibits in nearly
every paragraph mean jealousy of Judge
Poland's influence at Montpelier, as legis-
lator, such as would naturally follow from
the presence of gentleman of ability and
experience as jurist and statesman. The
low personality INDUCED in toward such a
gentleman is simply dscreditable to Yer
mont journalism, and we are actually
ashamed of it, coming from the source it
does. Senator Morrill, and his friends are
reported at Montpelier, looking after his in
terests, but their cause can hardly be adj
vanced by such conduct. What appear as
virtues in Judge Poland seem extremely Of
fensive to the writer"

THE AGRICULTURAL COLLEGE BILL
The Montpelier correspondent of the Rut-
land Herald says "Judge Poland did one
excellent thing to-day in his bill and resolu.
ton touching the use of the agricultural
fund by the. University of Vermont. The
general drift of this measure is to provide a
way by which the aggrieved farmers of the
state can bring the case to the attention Of
the judges of the Supreme Court. The con.
tinued patience of the people under this
great wrong is only proof of how long we
bear with public evils but the hour Of reck-
oning for the University, in this matter, has
come, though Mr.. Smalley and Others may
try to stave off the measure Every kind Of
agricultural education in Vermont will re-
joice that this matter is before the legisla-
ture."

MORE CIPHER DIspAToHEs.-The ex-
animation of Tilden's lawyer, Thomas Hart
land, for hooking those account books in
the income-tax case at Marquette, Mich, a
fortnight ago, developed plain evidence that
he was party to the job, and also brought
to light some suspicious-looking cipher dis
patches, which passed between him and
Gramercy park just before the seizure. The
man who had the key at first refused to
translate them, but finally changed his
mind, and turned them into Ineligible
English. They proved to be only an inquiry
by Hartland whether the books could not be
replevined reply from New York that
there was no objection, and this final an
nouncement by Hartland "Have finished
here with success Have the books safely,

Prudence Profitable.

Last weeks disaster on the Old Colony
road, whereby twenty men, women and chill
dren met horrible death, and hundred
and fifty more were bruised and manged, is
the most serious of the kind since the South
Norwalk horror. OF course there will be a
thorough investigation, that the response
bility for such murderous carelessness may
be definitely fixed At present the evidence
seems to point to displaced switch as the
cause, instead of an outof-the-way freight
train. But, as mere matter Of dollars and
cents, aside from higher considerations Of
humanity, timely care is the best invest
nothing of the Eastern railroad, which
rushed TO swift ruin at Revere, few years
ago, take the immediate instance of the Old
Colony railroad as an example. Tuesday
the stock of this line sold at 1854, and
closed in demand at that figure. To all ap-
pearance safer investment could not well
be found. Calamity came like thief in
the night, and Wednesday forenoon the
stock opened at W, showing fal OF l34
points. From the opening figure the price
dropped swiftly to 81, but rallied to 90 in
the first board, and to 81 in the afternoon
session. The closing sale was made at OIL.
Thus decline of l24 per cent has been
established since Tuesday There are 81.
1913 shares, on which, by the present show
ing, the loss of value amounts to $24,S0O.
This, be it remembered, is one days work
in the stock alone. The bonds also have a
share in the depression. Old Colony six
per cents, which Tuesday stood at 406 bid
Wednesday were sold in the auction room
at 1912 Speaking roundly, it may be said
that the stroke at Wollaston Tuesday nigh,
knocked one million dollars out of the
pockets of the stockholders and bondholders
of the Old Colony railroad.

How 1T WAS DoNE.-The New York Tri-
bune indicates in part how the cipher tele-
grams came into its possession. When the
Knott-Field committee of the House was in
quiring into the electoral count it called
upon the Western Union Telegraph Com
pany for the dispatches which went to and
from the disputed Southern States. The
dispatches thus passed lawfully aud honor
ably out of the hands of the telegraph com
pany, and there was no breach of faith on
its part. How they passed from the COM
mittee to the Tribune is not disclosed, but
doubtless could be explained intelligently
and satisfactorily.
