system of protection to home industry
which has proved itself to be the basis of
national independence, the incentive to
industrial skill and development and the
guarantor of a just and adequate scale of
wages for labor" The conventions dec
larations on this subject probably repre-
sent the high water mark of republican
sentiment in favor of protective tariff.
The platform calls for administrative re-
form in state affairs. The republicans of
Pennsylvania have not been above criti-
cism in their devotion to the "spoils sys-
TENS y, but the tidal wave government
which the disgruntled independents helped
the democrats to place in power has not
been conspicuous for its practice of purer
methods. Indeed, is has illustrated its I'M
dying attachment to the principle EN-.
bodied in the old democratic war cry, to
the victor belong the spoils." So factions
in republican ranks have been united
again under common banner for good
government and political reform.

bathed with rum before being allowed to
rest. All this rude inroad upon the
quiet of Sunday was simply to enable
few hundred, or thousand, men and
women in Saratoga to read the news
twenty-four hours earlier than they would
otherwise have done, and get the ebb and
flow of the week laundering along the
edge of their Sunday rest. In view of
such performance as this, the police
regulations which forbid newsboys in the
streets of New York from vociferating
cries on Sunday appear like straining
at very small gnat by community
which makes no difficulty in swallowing
a camel. 1t is not long since the Trib-
une was half apologizing for the neces-
sity which compelled it to issue Sunday

THERE is no longer any doubt that the
charges made against the administration
of the Tewsksbury Almshouse were false
in almost every particular. 1t is now ap-
parent, and generally conceded, that Gov
ernor Butler made his charges for the
purpose of manufacturing political capt.
tai. A patient and careful investigation
has revealed the fact that while there
were abuses in the almshouse years ago,
they had been remedied before the admin.
istration of Governor Butler. He is ap-
parently conscious of the fact that he has
made grave mistake in embarking in
this Tewksbury investigation and his
adroit addresses at Harvard and Williams
may be construed as shrewd attempts to
stem the ebbing tide of prestige and
maintain his mornings to the governorship
till the breezes of denomination expand
his Tapping sails. If such was his pur-
pose, he seems to have been partially sue
cessful at least, if the plaudits of COM
mencement crowds are any indication of
success.

the side of justice and humanity, to use
the moral forces of the executive office to
compel the mining company, which had
appealed TO him for help, to do right by
the men who were suffering from its
wrongs. He went in person to the scene
of the alleged disturbances, the more eff
fectually to enforce whatever commands
the real situation should require to be
given. The military once on the ground
was quick to grasp the situation. Instead
of emptying their ammunition boxes
from their guns muzzles into rioting
crowd, the soldiers poured the contents of
their hsversacks into the foodless larders
of the furnishing miners and made the do
nation the more grateful by the evidence
of manly sympathy behind it. The
governor and the soldiers we'll deserve the
kind words which have been spoken for
them. Still an organization called the
New York Central Labor Union, with the
extravaganza of statement and violence
of language characteristic of such bodies,
mathematical Gov. Barstow for send
ing bullets instead of bread and justice
to the starving and swindled miners"
aud advocated the summary hanging of
"such arch conspirators against human
rights" The Providence Journal quotes
the resolutions of the union, recites the
real facts in the case, speaks in high COM
mendation of Governor Bsrstow's course
and concludes The miners were at once
taught that they should not be made the
subject of injustice when the state power
was called upon to interfere, and the gov
ernor should be entitled to the thanks of
the workingmen of this country, instead
being subjected TO insane abuse and bald
erdash, without inquiry as to the real facts
of the case; but all that the Central
Labor Union was apparently anxious
to do, was to vent its cheap rhetoric and
excite class animosity as far as possible"

Keep the Rascals Out.

cartoon depicting all the democratic
"rascals attempting to scale the walls
of the government while Uncle Sam sits
on the battlements complacently smiling
at their futile efforts and remarking, " Up
to old your tricks, eh p? Well, you must
think am fool, if you suppose you can

perched on a rickety "L.L. d." finds to
his grief that he can reach but half way
up. The democratic chieftains stand

COMMISSIONER EVANS withholds the
report of Collector Slack in the G. w.
Horton case, but publishes instead his
own statement of the finding of the COL
lector. The commissioner says Horton is
exonerated, but to "save the administra-
tion embarrassment the latter has been
asked to resign. Horton publishes let
ter declaring that to resign would be a
confession of guilt, that he is innocent
and prefers to be dismissed. The COM
missioner's course in removing faithful
and experienced officials and appointing
inexperienced men, or men of questioned
integrity, men who have been in the SER
vice of individuals whom the government
is prosecuting for violation of the revenue
law, would seem to indicate that the Pres
ident might advantageously apply to the
commissioner the course of treatment the
latter has prescribed for Horton.

THE New York Times has had its
finger on the pulse of the people since
early in June with view to finding out
the presidential preference of the country.
The Times addressed a circular to four
hundred points in the various states, max.
ing inquiries as to who is most frequently
spoken of by republicans as their first
choice for President, and what other
names are mentioned. Similar inquiries
were made as to democratic preference.
Out of the four hundred inquiries an
swers were received from three hundred
and thirty-four points. Mr.. Blaine leads
among the republicans, having one hun
dred and three expressions of preference,
MIR. Arthur is next at sixty-four and Mr..
Edmunds third at ffty-seven. A prefer
ence was expressed for fifteen others,
from one each for Window and Folger to
nineteen for Grant, and seventeen for
Sherman. Lincoln, Logan, Generals Sher-
man and Sheridan, were among the re.
publican preferences. Preference was in
dictated for eighteen democrats, among
whom Mr.. Tilden leads at one hundred
and twenty, Mr.. Mcdonald has seventy
two, Bayard thirty-one, Hancock twenty
five, Butler twenty-chiefy from Massa-
chusetts-the preference of the other lead
ing candidates, republican or democratic,
being pretty evenly distributed.

The Boston Journals correspondents
In other parts of the country should be
far more reliable and independent than
in Vermont to entitle that paper to the
confidence of news readers. The Jour
mats reports of the Vershire troubles, be-
sides being exceedingly bombastic, were a
mixture of misstatement and subserviency
to power and official rank. They were
incorrect in fact, misleading in tenor and
evidently caught their spirit from the at
mosphere of the mining company's head
quarters. But Vershire is no exceptional
case. So common has coloring become
in the Journals reports of Vermont
affairs that those in position to see and
know have come to understand that its
correspondent works his office for all it is
worth. To the call for whitewashing
from high sources he briskly answers,
Here am l." Vigor, independence and
intelligence characterized the Journals
Vermont correspondence before the days
OF its later representatives and their in
stallment in the state house at the right
hand OF executive power. The Journal
has large circulation in Vermont and
people have generally believed in it. II
it would retain confidence in this state, let
it practice little genuine independence,
manliness and honesty in giving the news.
Sycophancy may bring a correspondent
personal consideration, but it is not pal.
atable ingredient in news for Vermont
readers.

A Letter from Sheriff Parish.

RANDOLPH, Vt, July 16, 1888.
Editor Of the Vermont Waterman Your
paper, which has been visitor to our house,
hold since my first recollection, and, think
subscribed to by my father since its first pub
LEGATION, came to hand last week with quite
lengthy article, a considerable portion of which
is devoted to personal attack upon myself
and upon my official action as sheriff Of this
county in connection with the recent disturb
ances at Vershire. My information is that the
reporter, who supplied you the article to which
| refer, is such an unreliable source of informa-
ton in any matter that perhaps no notice
should be taken of your account; but desire
to take this opportunity to suggest to you and
your readers that, instead of any disgrace hav-
ing occurred to the State OF Vermont, or her
governor having been misled by statements of
persons in authority in Orange county, or they
themselves being characterized by cowardice
or inetficiency, it is all together more probable
that the WATERMAN has itself been imposed
upon by a man who, am informed, is a most
melancholy instance" of played out news
paper correspondent, who, because he is no
longer employed in this county, seems to have
a grudge against every body in the county. |
do not desire to make mention in detail OF such
long list of false statements as your article
contains 80 far as my own actions is concerned,
whether ill-advised or improper or inefficient
or not that is something which will be best
understood in my own county among the sem
sible people who know better what the real sit
uhtlOn OF dHdlrS mas Deem imam Dy man VINO
came on the ground after everything was
over and has undertaken to tell the public how
mistaken and frightened and panic-stricken
and inefficient everybody has been, and what
mistake the governor made, and how rota
ton in office is the cause of il all. | have the
very best evidence which need be asked as
warrant for my own course in the matter of
the Ely Mines il there were any occasion to
call it to your attention at this time Know
ing the feelings and opinions, and having
heard the expressions OF so many of the sub
stantial men who represented to me the state
of affairs, and knowing also from my own per-
sonal knowledge of the affair, am surprised
that you should be imposed upon by such
scurrilous hash of misstatements and low per-
sonalites as were furnished you by Mr., 0viatt,
who has evidently as little knowledge of what
he undertakes to write about as he has OF the
Latin he misquotes. Hoping you will not be
imposed upon again to the same extent,
am, respectfully yours, LUKE PARISH
I'VE give place to the above letter that there
may be no foundation for any charge OF unfair
treatment on our part towards MIR. Parish,
While we respect and esteem him as citizen
We have not seen any reason yet for changing
our views as TO his official conduct and conse-
quently cannot retract anything. We can only
say for Mr.. Parish's benefit that it is the lot Of
great men to be abused and misrepresented by
the small ones. ED,
