Ii the president be stillin doubt about
the effect of his Stone-Benton letters,
he has only 10 read the comments there
on Of those democratic newspapers
which have hitherto opposed, ridiculed,
and vi'itied him. There is not one of
them which is not to-day rejoicing over
what they consider breach of the
pledges to which he undoubtedly owed
his election. There is not 4 base, time
serving, corrupt politician in the demo-
cratic party to-day who has not been
made happier by these letters, and who
is not open and ostentatious i'll his
chuckling. Every enemy Mr. Cleve-
land has made by what is best in his
career, both as governor and president,
is to-day ready to forgive him and
cleve to him. The spectacle is melan-
cholv one, and deserves praycrful con-
sideration by somebody.

FREE TRADE.

The reduction of internal reyenue
and the taking Off of revenue stamps
from Proprietary Medicines, no doubt
has largely benefited the consumers. as
well as relieving the burden of home
manufacturers. Especially is this the
case with GREEN'S august F2omer and
BoSchee's German Syrup, as the re.
duction of thirty-six cents per dozen,
has been added to increase the size of
the bottles containing these remedies.

er for Dyspepsia and Liver Complaint,
and the German Syrup for Cough and

The village of Proctor was visited by
a serious fire last Saturday night that
destroyed the finishing shops of the
Vermont Marble company and the
Central Vermont railroad depot on the
east side of the railroad track. 1t was
feared at first that the Office building of
the Vermont Marble company on the
west side of the track would be burn
ed, but some lively work with buckets
prevented the spread of the flames in
that direction. The fire was finally
stopped at the south end of the saving
department of the company.
Gov. Proctor estimates the loss at
about 10000, and it may exceed that
amount. The buildings were insured
in the Vermont Mutual Insurance COM
pany with Mr.. Francisco. The loss to
the railroad by the burning of the depot
will not exceed $500.

The conclusion can hardly be resist
ed that the president is superstitious.
Attention has been called to this from
the fact that he has never yet entered
or left the Baltimore & Potomac depot
at the general entrance through which
Gen. Garfield passed on the day he was
assassinatcd, nor has he permitted
Mrs. Cleveland to do so. Just inside
that entrance is wcll-Worn spot in the
floor marked by a brass star to indi-
cate the place where Garfield fell, and
in the wall just above it is a memorial
tablet upon which is inscribed: "James
Abram Garfield, president of the
United States, July 2, 1881" Over
this star and beneath this tablet Presi-
dent Cleveland does not pass. On re-
cent occasions he has had the White
house carriage driven to the train yard
at the south end of the depot, where
no prudent person would permit a
spirited horse to be driven, and by the
side of half dozen tracks and in the
midst of switching engines has alighted
and walked back the great length of
the long depot building to take the
train. Twice recently has Albert, the
White house coachman, had great
trouble in controlling the sable browns,
who were greatly frightened by the
switch engine, and Mrs. Cleveland was
not less frightened herself. and how
the flag of the White house is at half
mast and the great columns of the
northern portico are draped in heaviest
mourning in memory of the late Presi-
dent Arthur. Since these draperics
were hung there the president and Mrs.
Cleveland take their carriage at the
south entrance when they leave the
house for n drive.-Chicago Inter-

November goth, 35 of her friends
gathered at Haley Brigham's to con-

marks, and Rev. ID. Wells, SO years of

We understand that our old and es-
TENED friend, M. II. Goddard, Esq,
of Ludlow, serenely bobbed up, the
other day, at Factory Point, looking
after postoffice, or rather mail route
contracts, or matters pertaining thereto.
Without swerving to wind Or tide he
majestically sailed into Thayer's hotel,
and only dropped anchor when his
pompossity struck the Office counter.
He then inquired of that genial land
lord and good democrat what rates his
driver, from Manchester to Pawlet,
had. Thayer told him he hadn't any
rates there, only as he sometimes saw
the old man eating a cold dinner he
took him in and gave him a square
meal. This driver is worthy old man
bat very poor, and has to struggle for
his existence. Goddard said lie
thought lie boarded there, Anyway
he would pay for his dinner now but
would get it ont of him. Whereupon
he threw down quarter, which Thay-
er secured, after struggle, as the ca
gle, after so tight grip had been put
upon it, was disposed to flap its wings
and give one shrek for freedom.
Goddard complacently asked if that
wasn't enough. Thayer told him his
usual price was so cents, but if he was
going to get it out of the old man, that
would do. Goddard turned away
with q sorrowful far away look, and
the eagle, as it surveyed Thayers till,
said it had no idea the world was so
big.
We understand that Thaver was dis
gusted with his brother democrat and
said that he was disgrace to the par
ty, and that he had learned something
about him from the SITTER, but had
no idea he was quite SO small. We beg
to assure that gentleman that he need
borrow no trouble on his party's ac-
count, as in this particular, honors are
easy. Over in this county we have a

Why doa't they pay:

The st. Adams Messenger. Governor
Smiths home organ, makes two points
about railroads in this state:
/. That the original investors lost
all their money, and
,. That the Vermont railroads to-
day pay only , l-2 per cent; and from
these premises ii insists thai the roads,
or rather their managers, ought to be
let alone to do as they please.
Let rs see: /. Ii is true the men who
put up the money to build the roads
los il all; but why? Suppose the man
agcment of them had been wise as well
as honest, need this to have happened!
The roads somehow became bankrupt,
just III proportion as their nanagcrs be-
came enormously rich, as did the car
trust companies and express companies
wheels within whecis-W!ich these
same managers organized and owned,
and through which they diverted the
legitimate earnings of the roads from
tie men Who built them into their own
privaic pockets. In these ays. and i'll
many others. the life blood was sucked
out Of the railroads, and their investors
were ruined, and the very men who
were put on guard to protect and de-
fcnd them were foremost III devising
and carrying out, and iii protiting by,
these plundering schemes. No wonder
these poor lambs were slaughtered by
the raycnous wolves that were put in
charge of the fold.
2. 1t is true, probably, that the net
earnings of Vermont railroads at the
present time are only about two and a
half per cent. Whose fault is this? Sup
pose the enormous salaries that are
paid to sleek and dominecriny officials
were cut down TO a proper figure!
Suppose that these inside organizations,
like car trust companies, express com
panies and the like, which now absorb
the major part of the earnings and turn
them into the private pockets OF these
same officials and their friends were a.
polished, as they should be, along with
every other cunning devise to keep the
legitimate earnings of the roads from
their owners? And suppose, finally,
that the thousands of dead heads, whose
free TRANSFORMATION is q fraud upon
both the owners of the road and upon
all their paying patrons, were compell-
cd to pay their way like other people?
What then would be the probable per-
centage of net earnings! Perhaps the
Messenger can tell us. 1t is just what
the people, through proper railroad
legislation, are trying to find ont.

IN a FIX.

Since the president began to "wob-
bic" in regard to civil service reform
his case grows worse and worse. 1t
now turns out that a Missouri editor
charged Benton with making speeches
that were hostile to the administration.
That is why Benton was removed.
Then Senator Vest satisfied the presi-
dent that the speeches were not UNI
friendly and so the charge of "per-
nicious activity was withdrawn and
Benton was restored. But now a
member of the Missouri delegation in
congress says it is understood that the
speeches were hostile and that the
editor who so reported is an honorable
man. This puts the president in d.
lemma where he either ought to restore
Stone as he did Benton, or remove
Benton again and confess to the coun-
try that he has not only been deceived
as to the facts but has been a little I'M
certain as to his policy. 1t has suggest
