AT a meeting of the Midlothian
Liberal association to day, the char
man read letter from Mr.. Gladstone,
his deep and grateful
sense of fidelity of the liberal majority
of 1880. in dealing with difficulties al
most unexampled. He reirains from
criticising the conservative cabinet,
feeling IL to be his duty TO support
and assist them in doing right. lie
says Ire is confident that the presence of
the liberals in parliament will be COM
petent to exercise the necessary vigil
lance and he asks Midlothian to assist
him In using his strongest and most
sedulous efforts In the interests of the
liberal party. Mr.. Gladstone says he
did not think he should again ask to
be returned to parliament, but that
events had TRANSFERRED which render 1t
necessary that he should not i'm
peril the UNITY and efficiency
of the party. This is tan
tamount to a declaration that he will
remain the leader of the liberals.

The local paper, going out into the
world every week, passing under the
inspection of strangers and telling its
story of local enterprise, is an influen-
tial advertisement for O. town. The
local paper is a correct mirror of the
style, ability, far sightedness and thrift
of the business of the place from which
it is issued; and there should always
be hearty cooperation between the
local editor and the enterprise of his
town. A little extra eXertion occa-
sionaIly to boom your local paper will
be very beneficial to your town, pre-
senting it in a more able manner to q
greater number of people. Anything
you do to injure or belittle your home

his local paper so that it might reflect

BY the manner that orr courts bust
ness has been done for the past few
years the shire town has lost much ofits
centripetal Influences. The semi-an-
nual sessions of court have become in
the eyes of the public mere bar re-
unions. They used to he the centre of
great interest. They engaged the at
tention of the entire county, and their
proceedings almost entirely banished
conversation upon any other
subject. But now our court comes
and goes almost unnoticed. The
judges, lawyers, and the officers of the
court convene and perform the ordi-
nary civilities of the occasion. The
presiding Judge usually delivers q
learned charge to the petit jurors who
very likely go home without listening
to q case. The grand jurors examine
the condition Of the county, and if any
one has been wickedly enterprising
enough to have committed a crime,
and sometimes if he hasn't, they indict
him they report that the funds for
them to look after are all properly
spent, and that there is no probability
of the jailer's escape, nor danger from
any one else because the rest are all
secure in Canada or elsewhere. The
! court quietly disposes of few cases,
then the jury go home, the lawyers
steal away, and the judges retire in a
dignitied manner, and the term is over.
! Perhaps this is an improvement on
| former times. Much business. not
generally observed by the public, is
carefully disposed of under the refer
ence system. Theatrical perfoi mances
in court, vituperation and recrimina-
J ton, bombastic performances, and
! everything a. GGptalltfltn1 g0IgR3 are
sternly frowned upon by the Judges,
and are distasteGul to all good practi-
! TONERS, so that courts have come to
carefully try the rights of parties rather
| than furnish means for the exercise OF
! envy, passion and malice, or mercen.
AIRY speculation, The cases on the
dockets have gradually decreased SO

/ comparatively free from crime. We

ouch manner, and our highways, by
means Of modern improvements and
working them, are in good condition
our school systems in good working
order, ana there is no reason why these
1 things together with the reference law
should not leave very little for either
jury to do. So on the whole we con
clude that If our courts seem more

An attempt was made last Friday
night to rob the Office Of II. A. Slayton
& Co., at Morrisville. The burglar, a

to Morrisvile by n detective, who
found that the fellow was to enter

&C.. W. Fitch in the office. The man
was two hours in elrecting an entrance
and as he was beginning operations
on the safe Mr.. Fitch jumped on his
back and succeeded in holding him
down, though he received a blow in
the scrimmage. The burglar, Leonard
Gibbs by name, is supposed to live at
Enosburg Falls. Tools, in the shape
of drills, fuse and powder and a steel
bar, were found in his possession.
Fire broke out early last week
Thursday morning in the store belong
ing to A. D. Owen of Barton, a dealer
in general merchandise, and con-
sumed the building and also the drug
store belonging to E. +. Dutton. The
buildings were IN the business part of
the village and the fire at one time
threatened general confiagration.
Mr. Dutton lived in q tenement above
his store and lost nearly everything in
his building. Very little was saved
from the Owen Block. Mrs. G. H..
Chadwick, a tenant in the Owen
Block, lost everything. Mr. Owen did
very large business, and carried q
heavy stock of goods. His loss is $15,-

$1,000 9. II. Chadwick's goods were
insured for $500. Assistance was re-
ceived from the Barton Landing Fire
Company and the fire companies of
LyndonvilIe and st. Johnsbury were
ready to start for the scene when the
fire was got under control. A very
heavy rain had soaked everything so
that the surrounding buildings were
more easily protected. The village is
so situated as to be easily protected
by water works, but has not yet come
up to the point where they can be
