brary; the act placing trust companies
on the same basis with savings banks
as to the limitations and restrictions
placed upon their management; the
act for the efficient protection of the
fish in Lake Champlain; the highway
bill introduced by Senator Chaplin of
Washington, but changed beyond recog-
milton by amendments made in the
house. Some of the best work of the
watchful men of the assembly was in
preventing the fruiting of the unusually
large crop of legislative tares that was
sown. These men deserve much praise
for the laws that have not been made,
though the end may prove that bad
legislation enough has succeeded to
make, in repeating and amending, a
sessions work for the next body of law
making apprentices. We have said
that no measure of great public i'm
portance was passed. The measures
which failed were the railway commits
sion bill, the various other bills relating
to matters of difference between the
railways and business men or the
general public, the board of health bill,
the free textbook bill, and the bill
adopting the town system of schools.
The railway bills after long contests
were defeated in the senate where they
originated; the house throttled the
board of health bill; and the senators,
after the representative had shown, by
the passage of the free textbook bill, a
readiness to take one step forward,
chilled the rising spirit of educational
reform in this state by defeating the
measure. In the house the town sys-
tenn bill, the most important and far
reaching measure of the session, after
having been amended to meet every
reasonable and some unreasonable OBJ
jections, was stabbed in the back by its
professed friends, by men who showed
by their course that they had not the
manliness to oppose the bill in an
open and honorable fight. The legisla-
ture has appropriated money with a
prodigal hand. The yeas and nays
have been frequently demanded on
matters of the most trivial consequence
but by rira voce vote on the last day
of the session, 5000 were scattered
by single sweep of the Legislative arm.
So far as any measure benefcially affect
ing the prosperity of the state or the well
fare of the people at large is concerned,
this session has been barren of results.

The Dairy Exhibit at New Orleans.

To the Ddirvmen Of Vermont;-The dairy
exhibit at the approaching Worlds Ex-
position at New Orleans offers to us an
opportunity which we cannot afford to let
pass by unimproved. Visitors will be there
from all parts of the world seeking where
they can best procure those articles they de-
sire and of the best quality New channels
OF trade will be opened, new markets found,
new customers secured. OF all the different
exhibits none will be of greater monetary
interest or commercial importance TO Yer
mont than that of the dairy products Here
will be visitors from localities where good
butter is pot made, notably the southern
states, Mexico and Central America, which
rightfully should be our markets, and il we
take hold of the matter with personal inter-
est and individual effort we can make an eX-
hibit creditabe in amount and unsurpassed
in quality, which will extend our market,
increase the demand for our dairy products,
and so make better prices, to the pecuniary
advantage of every person in our state We
cannot afford to be careless and backward
in this matter. The great dairy states of
the west, with western push and enthu-
siasm are lavish of money and hard work to
secure those advantages, but if we do our
duty and wake up to the Importance of the
matter as Vermont farmers and farmers
wives can, Vermont butter and cheese will
have nothing to fear in the competition.
The dairy exposition opens January 9TH and
continues twenty days. Liberal prizes are
offered, and all possible facilities afforded
Premium lists and circular of instructions
will be sent on application to o. Nj. Tink-
ham, North Pomfret, VI, who is the state
superintendent of the dairy exhibit.

allaying of district quarrels, had been
some of the beneficent results of the
three years experience. Representa-
tive Knapp of Woodford stated that his
town adopted the system in 1871. Its
voters. were so well satisfied that they
could not be induced to return to the dis
trict system. The objection to the system
at first was that the small districts would
be swallowed up by the larger. They
had changed their minds entirely; the
little districts get the full benefit of the
new system and their condition is
greatly improved under it. Mr.. Knapp's
testimony as to the quality of the
schools and the general result of this
system of management was in harmony
with that of the preceding. Represen-
tative Dunton of Charleston said his
town adopted the system in 1888. The
minority were dissatisfied, called spe-
cial town meeting and rescinded the
vote at the regular meeting. The vote
resembling was declared void by good
legal counsel, and the town then organ
lied under the new system, and now,
after only year and half of trial, not
one in three would vote to return to the
old system. District broils in quarrel
some locality had disappeared; there
were no district school meetings, so the
voters couldn't get to quarreling The
opposition to the system had come from
that quarter. Districts which, with a
tax rate running as high as one hun
dred twenty per cent, had been able to
support only the legal number of weeks
of school, had thirty weeks of school at
less cost. The expense is equitably
divided up. Not town in the state,
Mr.. Dunton said, would go back to the
district system after giving the town
system a fair trial. Charleston, he said,
had formerly surpassed Brighton in the
excellence of its schools, but the latter,
under the town system, had completely
turned the tables upon Charleston,
which till recently had chung to the
district system. The town has twelve
districts

THE state canvassing board of New
York has completed its labors. Cleve-
lands plurality is declared to be l, l49.
The vote was as follows For Cleve-
land, 500, 154; for Blaine, 562, 005; for
st. John, 25,006; for Butler, 1904.
Total vote, 1,167, 169. Garfeld's plu-
rality four years ago was 81 ,033. In
Iowa, "the Vermont of the West"
Blaine's plurality was 1908, and Gar
fields 7S,0S2-a reduction of 81 900; in
Michigan, Blaine's 2,946, and Garfield's
$3.50. The upper peninsula saved the
state by offsetting with republican
plurality of over 5000 the democratic
plurality of about 1000 in the lower
peninsula. In Illinois Blaine's plu-
rality was 25,119; Garfeld's, 40,716; in
Wisconsin, Blaine's about 10000, Gar
fields about 10000; in Kansas, Blaine's
$4,000, Garfeld's $4,000; in Pennsylva-
mia, Blaine's $4,000, Garfeld's 81 900.

After the Battle.

Popular passion has cooled, or is
working off through various channels,
and the eye of the prophets is on the
future. AT Augusta Mr.. Blaine has
been serenaded by large number of
devoted personal and political friends.
In long and brilliant speech he dis
tributed thanks and praise to the repub-
lican hosts in the late contest and re-
viewed the slender margin by which
the battle had been lost and won. OF

Exeunt.

The results of the session now ended
are briefly told. Several progressive
and beneficent measures, moral and ma
terial, of far-reaching consequence to
the state, were proposed to this legisla-
ture. Most of them have been either
killed outright or their strength and
vigor destroyed. Many measures of
trivial importance, or of limited appli-
cation, or of local and selfish interest,
have prevailed. No measure of a dis
tinctive general character, intimately
affecting the public veal, has been
passed which will, like the act of 1880 to
equalize taxation, or of 1882 to pro-
vide revenue for state expenses, serve
to commemorate the deeds of the gem
eral assembly of 1884. And yet this
assembly had opportunities that were
as great as those vouchsafed to any of
its predecessors, but while affording
rare instances of individual ability,
zeal and fidelity, as body it seems to
have lacked the courage or capacity or
public virtue to make the most of its
opportunities. Some of its more con-
spicuous acts are that proposed by
Senator Ide of Caledonia, relating to
the property rights of married women,
measure considerably changed by
amendments in the house from the
form in which it originally passed the
senate; the act, after more than de-
cade of persistent refusal to provide
the means of preserving the state Ii

WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 26, 1884.

WEST VIRGINIA has joined the No
vember states, and before another ma
tional election Ohio will doubtless be
added to the list. Maine and Vermont
will then be the only states in which
political parties may test their strength
before the general election. BY force
of circumstances, Vermont will doubt
less remain a September state even
after the constitutional tinker has gone
his decennial round in 1890.

Municipal Indebtedness.

The country has recently been made
familiar with New York's election
laws, the system of checks and counter
checks that has been devised to protect
the purity of the ballot as the perfec-
ton of the locksmith's skill has been
exerted to protect the contents of the
bankers safe. At the recent election
in that state a constitutional amend
ment similarly affecting the material
prosperity municipalities was adopted,
but it has been quite overshadowed by
the momentary importance attached to
the result of the vote for president.
The amendment prohibits the loan or
use of public money for private pur-
poses and restricts the indebtedness of
counties, cities, towns and villages.
The provision of the amendment most
directly applicable to the existing state
of things in Vermont is the following:
81. That no county, city, town, or village
shall hereafter give any money or property,
or loan its money or credit to or in aid of
any individual, association or corporation,
or become directly or indirectly the owner
of stock in, or bonds of, any association or
corporations nor shall any such county, city,
town, or village be allowed to incur any in
debtedness, except for county, city, town or
village purposes. This section shall not
prevent such county, city, town or village
from making such provision for the aid or
support of its poor as may be authorized
by law"
Other amendments prohibit counties
containing cities of over one hundred
thousand inhabitants from becoming
indebted for any purpose and in any
manner to an amount which, including
existing indebtedness, shall exceed ten
per cent of the assessed value of real
estate subject to taxation. All in
debtedness in excess of such limitation,
except such as may now exist, is made
absolutely void. The amount hereafter
to be raised by tax for city or county
purposes in any county containing a
city of one hundred thousand inhab-
itants or in any such city in the state,
shall not in the aggregate exceed in any
one year two per cent of the assessed
valuation of real and personal property
subject to taxation. Any such county
or city whose existing indebtedness ex-
ceeds ten per cent of its real and
personal property assessed for taxation
is not allowed to become indebted in
any further amount till such indebted
ness is brought within the limits pre-
scribed. The provisions of the amend
ment duly guard any existing state of
affairs that may be at variance with
the new restrictions, and limitations
and guards are interposed to prevent
any construction of the amendment
that may prevent necessary and legiti-
mate acts in the management of finan-
cial affairs of municipalities. The
amendments simply interpose an effec-
tive barrier to the enormous increase of
municipal debts which during the past
fifteen or twenty years has bankrupted
orseriously crippled towns, counties and
cities all over the country. The pro-
visions are all of most salutary charac-
ter and the Empire State wisely sinks
them into the granite of her consti-
tuition"

THE house refused the Douglass bill,
exempting mortgages from taxation, a
third reading. There was really but
little discussion of the bill. 1t was
plain that the measure could not pass,
and members who were prepared to
take the floor, if necessary, against so
dangerous scheme preferred to suffer
it to meet its fate as quietly and expe
ditiously as possible. In view even of
the few reasons brought forth, in the
few minutes the house considered the
question, from the great arsenal of OBJ
jections to an enactment so fatal to the
interests Of Vermont as this would have
been, it was astonishing to hear lead
ing member oratorically declare that
the Douglass bill " furnished all the
machinery necessary for the reform of
great abuse" However the facts may
be, this speaker and those who voted
with him are on record for the next
biennial raid at the hustings. Had this
measure passed, every foreclosure mill
in the state would have been in full
blast for the next few months and
mortgageors would have been clamoring
for an extra session of the legislature to
protect them from the exemption folly.
But the house, in this instance, as it has
often before during the session, exhib-
tied its great negative virtue by ruth
lessly killing the mischievous measure.
We have some further facts relating to
the practical working in other states of
the usurious claim which was incorpor-
ated into the bill to prevent the fulfill
ment of covenant between the debtor
and the creditor that the former should
pay all the taxes on the mortgaged es-
tate. AS the subject is now before the
people and an active interest in it felt,
we shall present these facts as soon as
the pressure on our columns is removed.
We have no earthly interest to be ad-
vanced or injured by the defeat or
passage of any measure of this kind.
We believe the proposed " reform is
entirely against wise public policy,
that its true inwardness and practi-
cal working, well enough understood
by some scalpers and demagogues, have
been but family apprehended by the
general public. Our columns have
been devoted to calculating the princi-
ples-or rather lack of principles-and
the practical workings of this proposed
"reform with the view of saving the
state from a step which easily taken
would not be so easily retraced. The
gentleman who has championed this
measure we have no doubt has been
honest in his purpose and sincere in
his belief, but we think he is mistaken
and on reflection will become convinced
that it was for the highest good of his
state, and the farmers of his state, that
his measure should not prevail.
