E. II. THORP, Editor and Manager.
FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 4, 1885.

JUSTICE" a correspondent of the
Vergennes Vermonter, writing about the
recent collision of the steamers Lily and
Gazelle of the mouth of Otter creek, as
these columns, "either through ignor-
ance of marine law and the regulations
governing the meeting and passing of
steam craft or through prejudice, has
greatly msstated the facts" We did not
lay claim to any knowledge of 'marine
law" and had no ''prejudice;' we simply
told the story as it was told to us by gem
tlemen whose word we considered just as
trustworthy as Justices" printed state
ment. We do not intend to occupy fur
ther space with discussion of the ques-
ton, for the United States officers have
taken it in hand and are able to settle it
in accordance with marine law" even,
perhaps, without the assistance of Jus
tice'-certainly without our aid. But
we cannot agree with the editor of the
VermOnter when he says: 1T is unfor
tunate that the matter has got into the
papers, as it can result in no good to
either party" 1t may result unfortun-
ately for one or possibly both of the
steamer captains, but the public are en-
titled to know about these occurrences.
Men who assume to command passenger
boats ought to be careful and competent;
they ought not to be men who will try to
wreck one another's crafts because of
spite or jealousy. If they are such char
acters, the public should be made aware
of it, that they may avoid the boats and
seek other safer modes of conveyance;
and if indications of incompetence, stu
pidity or malice are seen, it is the bust
ness of the newspapers to give the facts,
and thus call the attention of the proper
authorities to the matter and bring about
an investigation.

MANAGERS of Democratic organs now
have fine opportunity to earn offices
and the goodwill of the administration
by explaining the removal of Hon. Dan
lei Roberts of Burlington from the re-
ownership of the bursted First national
bank of st. Adams. 1t has not yet been
made clear that he was inefficient, or that
any charge could be brought against him
except that he made things too lively for
some who had been instrumental in
wrecking the institution. His acts had
resulted in the bringing of an indictment
against Albert Sowles for using about
$4,000 of money belonging to the bank
in stock speculations; two suits against
Burton and Sowles for money due the
bank on their paper, amounting to 500
600; suits against Burton and others for
mismanagement of bank affairs a writ
of sequestration against Burton and 9TH
ers, involving $500, 900; an indictment
against Burton for perjury; judgment
against f. A. Sowles for an assessment
OF S34, 900; execution against Ii. f. Lew
is for $4,000, and indictments against Z.
A. and Albert Sowles for making false
returns. The depositors had begun to
hope they would get something out of
the ruins, or, at least, that those who
are responsible for the loss of the money
would be punished when Mr.. Roberts
removal was announced. And, to make
the farce more complete, Hon. c. W.
Writers, Milton lawyer, who has been
Burton's counsel, is made Mr.. Roberts
successor. The theory put out by the de-
positors and their supporters is that Bur-
ton, Sowles u Co., working through
their friend, the notorious Smith NJ.
Weed of Plattsburgh, influenced Weeds
friend, Secretary of the Treasury Man
ming, to direct his underling, the comp
troller of the currency, to make the
change. This seems to be the obvious ex.
PLANTATION and will be accepted by the
unpreiudiced till one more satisfactory is

hre in the evening. About 100 Veterans
were present, who seemed bound to have a
hne ume-ln a creditable way, however
Friday at 8 a. IN. they marched to Tyler's
hall Post SIMPSONS headquartersl, where
the annual meeting for the election of off
GERS and other business was held. At one
O'Clock came the review by Col. A. S. Tracy
OF Mlddlebury The veterans appeare1
hnely, and. although the weight Of years
sits sheaVily upon some, the regular step,
erect forms and soldierly bearing showed
plainly that ~ years had not even dimmed
the memories OF the trying times. At 2p.
IN. a large crowd gathered to listen TO the
address, but Mr.. Woodbridge did not meet
the engagement, much to the disappoint
ment OF all, nor was Mr. Grandey present
as substitute through some misunder.
standing. John Brittell gave "Sheridan's
II M, IN MS usual acceptable style. Miss
Lena Tracy of Middlebury recited Cover
them over with beautiful flowers" very
hneiy and these exercises partially made
up the absence of the speaker. Three hear
~ cheers for Commander Maynard were re-
sponded to by him. He thanked the com
rades for the courtesies extended to him du-
ring the year Dress parade followed, which
was fine, and the company was dismissed. |
The Lincoln brass band furnished the mu-
sic during the gathering, and elected much |
praise by their gentlemenly appearance
and hne execution. The posts represented
