Orleans County monitor. [volume] (Barton, Vt.) 1872-1953, 1879-05-19

Since July 1, 1875, nineteen officers
of the United States have been killed at
the South, in attempting to enforce the
revenue laws, and thirty-four wounded.
In the North single officer has been
wounded. Yet Senator Davis, in his
speech the other day, said the laws were
as we'll respected at the South as at the
North. Nearly all the illicit distilling
is carried on in the Southern States,
and the number Of persons arrested in
that section is 1921 against l47 in all
the rest of the country. Senator Davis
may be a great man, literally speaking,
but he is great blunderer, fguratively
speaking.

Burlington, Vt, May z, 1879.

The curious sentimentality of recon-
ciliation which finds it's highest express
sion in praise of every man who fought
against the Union, and is the best illus.
trated by the new rule that no soldier
shall hold Office unless he can show
Confederate commission, reached its eli
max in the House of Representative yes
terday when Mr.. s. S. Cox, of New
York, spoke of "the so called rebellion.
"So-called, indeed To the complexion
we have come then-that wicked re-
bellion, fomented by leaders who prefer
red to reign in hell rather than serve in
heaven, and aided by Northern weak
lings who dared to do everything against
their country except to fight; which sac
ri6ced hundreds of thousands of lives
and thousands of millions of money, and
left behind it bitter hatreds between Sec
tons and States that will hardly disap-
pear in generations in short, the least
provoked and the least excusable revolt
the world ever saw, which was followed
by the most remarkable clemency known
in the history of the race, is now termed
"so-called rebellion" by a fippant
sympathizer with those who were at once
the perpetrators of this unexampled
crime and the objects of this unexampled
mercy! Mr.. Cox is hardly person tc
waste indignation upon, under ordinary
circumstances, but just here he repre-
sents class in politics which already
controls both houses of Congress. If i
should ever control the Presidency, W,
would have no right to be astonished i
it were officially declared that the $50
called rebellion" was a real one, only
that it was the North which rebelled.-

of working men, but the working men
no longer ask for such measures as this
with any thing like the unanimity that
prevailed even two years ago. They
have had the sense to learn by recent
experience that prosperity cannot be
brought to them by act of Congress, and
that they are much more likely to get
on if they are left to manage their own
affairs than when they are hampered by
legislation. Moreover, there are too
many men willing and anxious to work
ten hours day to make the eight-hour
movement popular. If Congress would
only pass the Appropriation bills, cease
their barren agitation of political schemes
and 60 home, it would be the greatest
possible service they could render the
working men.-W 7. Times.

An examination of the records show
that President Grant exercised the veto
power twenty-six times, while President
Lincoln used it but once. President
johnson vetoed seventeen bills, Buchan-
an four, Pierce nine, Polk three, Tyler
nine, Jackson eleven, Munroe one, Mad
ison six, and Washington two. President
Hayes vetoed four bills but has more in
reserve undoubtedly.

San Francisco wakes up to find that

MEMORIAL DAY.-The day, now made
sacred to the memory of the fallen SOL
diers-to patriotism and love of the
Union itself, is at hand. Next Friday,
3Oth. it will appear,-bringing both JOY
and grief to thousands of survivors, in
the homes that are bereft of loved ones
whose blood was laid on the altar of the
country for its protection from the hand
of mad destroyers whose remorseless
thirst for secession does not, even now,
seem to be thoroughly quenched. Let
the day be observed with becoming re-
spect for the memory Of the dead braves
and for the still sorrowing survivors of
the old Union forces

The Chicago Jockey and Trotting club
must have been born under lucky star, ss
everything they undertake seems to be dos
tined for success. Their inaugural trotting
meeting last year was one of the grand sue
cesses of the season. Their inaugural run
ming meeting to be held in June has the
prestige of the largest number Of entries
ever made for meeting in this country,
and now comes the announcement of entries
for their Fourth of July trot, showing q list
of notables sufficient to excite desire in
the breast of every lover of turf sports to be
present and see the fun. In the 2:2O class
there is entered Bonesetter, Mazzomania,
SCOTS Thomas, Orange Girl, Chicago Maid,
Lew Scott, Little Fred, Clementine, Kansas
Chief, Ethel and Elsie Good, with records
ranging from 2:2O to 1926, and with almost
a certainty that the horse winning will have
to do better than the best record yet made.
For the three year old class there are eight
entries, including the wonder Memento, by
Administrator, with her yearling record of
1864, and her two year old perfor-
nance, 2:31. Another Administrator colt
in this class is Admiration. Then there is
Trump by Tramp, three Blue Bulls and a
representative of the Hero of Thorndale.
But it is in the 5-year-old class that you
want to look for trouble. The entries num-
Der thirteen, with the phenomenal $3.50,
Kentucky Wilkes, Jennie G., Tom Walton,
Buffalo Bill and Wiry Jim, and others who
will not disgrace the company in which they
are placed. It will be contest worth trav
cling miles to see, and We doubt if any day
of the big racing meeting will show greater
crowd in attendance than when $3.50 and
his companions are brought up for the
start.

Queen Esther,

Everybody has read or heard of the
bright, musical cantata of Esther, semi
dramatic composition that ten or fifteen years
ago went the round of musical societies and
conventions all over the country.
Some ten years ago Professor Seager, who
resided here at that time, and had good
deal of local fame as director of music,
conceived the idea of transforming the can
tata into sacred opera, and did so with de-
cided success. Procuring suitable costumes
for the proper presentation of the work in
dramatic form, he re-wrote and altered such
of the words and music as required altera-
ton, and has devoted these Intervening
years to its elaborate presentation
in the leading cities and music centers of the
country. "Queen Esther" as now revised
and dramatized, has attracted immense audi
ences for three to five nights in nearly all the
large cities. The music is of that pleasing,
unpretentious, yet pleasing character that
artists as we'll as amateurs, and all who hear
it sung, concede it to be the most popula,
and delightful of American compositions
To its musical attractions are also added the
sublime pathos and thrilling dramatic situa-
tons of most renowned epoch in sacred
history-the reign of King Ahasuerus and his
beautiful Queen Esther. Professor Seape1
returned to his home in this city last Sat1r-
day, and will remain for number of DAYS OF
weeks, perhaps, preparatory to making pro-
fessional tour of the cities of California and
Oregon.

SECRET SOUP-ERS.

| A PhOsph0rescent Incident of Soup-y
Transaction.
In dark room, with blinds closely drawn
| to keep out the garish sunlight, and key.
hole securely stuffed to ward off the gaze oil
reportorial inspection, around an oblone
table, on Saturday afternoon, sat five or siz
scientists, whose mighty minds were strug-
Cling over the true inwardness of plate OF
MEDIEVAL and musty soup.
Ajolly banquet, exclaims the gentle reader;
a feast of reason and flow of soul. A fra
ternal reunion of philosophers, whose secret
meditations we're beyond the reach of the
''naddening worlds ignoble strife," and the
lnquisitive eye of the vulgar newspaper fell
low. Soft, most eloquent and gifted reader.
1t was nothing of the intellectual or high
faluten, namby -pamby sort It was not 80
much greed for soup as it was an I'M
luenchable thirst for the vulgar thing called
fame.
A very clever bard once said that some
men are born famous, others sought the in
tangable essence, while few had the pesky
thing thrast upon them. It may be said in
extenuation that the individuals under con-
sideration belong to neither of the above
named categories. They simply baited their
lines with latter-day spectroscope and
6shed for tin plate of Anticipated soup.
Some six months ago citizen of Albert
Lea, Freedom county, named M. Mattson,
suspected his wife of trying to poison him
by injecting quantity of phosphorus in his
food. The woman was arrested and brought
before the authorities, and upon her hus-
bands denial of the charge she was honor
ably DISCHARGED.
A few weeks after her discharge the hus-
band terminated his existence by commit
ting suicide, and there the matter rested
until Saturday last, when Coroner Smith, of
Albert Lea, Drought to this city for chemical
analysis plate of the identical SOUP pro-
duced at the time the charge was made last
fall.
The gentle reader will now understand
why the aforesaid scientists assembled in Sc
eret session at the High school building last
Saturday afternoon. just why the session
was secret, however, is what no fellah can
find out, unless it is that the discovery of a
few grains of phosphorus in the soup, six
months after the uan killed himself, is to
immortalize the finders by storming the
world by the sudden PRONUNCIATION of their
discovery.
Notwithstanding the Immense secrecy of
the proceedings, the Columbus of the GLOBE
was on hand, in spiritualized form, and
anticipates the announcement by presenting
to the world the results of the investigation.
After the soup had been disintegrated and
put under the lens of the spectroscope,
traces of phosphorus (or something that re-
sembled phosphorus) was found to exist in
extremely infnitessimal quantities. The
analyses will probably be finished to-day,
when the GLOBE will give full results of the
investigation.

The queen of tragedy, Janauschek, will
commence brief season at the Opera House
this evening, in her great creation of Mary
Stuart. She has now no equal on the stage,
and with the exception, perhaps, of Ristori
and Rachel, has never been surpassed. We
have no doubt she will be greeted by the
largest audiences of the season, for seldom
has St. Paul been favored with visit from
so distinguished and talented an artist.
Madame Janauschek will be supported by a
carefully selected company, peculiarly adapt
ed to the proper rendition of the class of plays
that are embraced in her list.
