Henry George has need to ask to be
saved from his friends. All the various
cranks have been declaring for him, and
now Most, who is serving a years i'm
prisOnment for melting to riot and
murder, has come out" fguratively
in favor of the Socialists candidate.
He does this on the ground that the
triumph of George would lead ulti-

Mr.. Most regards as the highest possible

One of the Candidates.

F. A. Bascom, Mr.. Atkins candidate
for postmaster at Montpelier, will be
remembered as the gentleman who Sc
cured a four months. respite from pos
sible imprisonment for a "secOnd of
fence" for liquor selling last October,
in the face of evidence which the state
attorney general pronounced the most
conclusive against respondent In any
liquor case he ever knew.
Last week this case came up again
and the fact that BascOm was discharg-
ed on account of the disagreement OF
the jury is considered more an argu-
ment against jury trials than in favor
of the respondent. A correspondent
of the Boston Advertiser declares that
some of the leading witnesses of the
state were offered money and pres ents
by Bascom if they would change their
testimony. This is denied by Mr.. At
kins and other friends of BascOm.
1t is rather humiliating to see prom
inent candidates for the leading offices
in the state obliged to defend them
selves from such charges, but there is
temporary comfort in it all inasmucl
as they are not altogether successful.

THE MALONEY ATTACK.

The assault upon Editor Maloney of
the Richford Gazette in st. Adams last
week is reported in the state news col
umn. MalOney had made no remarks
that reflected on the man who attack
ed him or upon any member of his
family but had, ia an article in the
Gazette, cast reflections upon the mo-
tives of prominent family in sending
flowers at the time of the funeral of
this mans brother. The article criti-
cised the family as prOfessed temper
ance people and church members for
sending flowers to decorate the bier of
a saloon keeper, etc.
The improperly and poor taste OF
MalOney's remarks are at once appar-
ent. The sending of the flowers may
have been done as he intimates purely
for political effect, but it is not uncOm-
mon for political foes or personal enc
mics to soften when the funeral bell
tolls and to show some act of kindness
at such a time. But be this as it may
the brutal attack was wicked and I'M
justifiable. If such things are to be
permitted VermOnters will soon need
to ask themselves the meaning of the
term, ''freedOm of the press" Says
the Rutland Herald:
If it has come to this that an editor
cannot even allude to the business of a
rumseller without being knocked down
for it and cannot reflect upon the sup
posed motives of a prominent man
without so incensing his friends and
employees that they will refrain from
interfering to prevent breach OF the
peace and the injury and perhaps muir
der of the editor when he is going qui-
city about his business, then there is a
most deplorable decadence of public
virtue and of respect for personal
rights and the 4gis of the law.
1t was less than four months ago
that we called attention to the Royce
MalOney suit and the evident purpose
to crush Maloney. This last escapade
seems part and parcel of the same
business and the upshOt of it all will
be to make a martyr of Maloney and to
bring the law abiding people of the
state to his side. We are wont to crit
icise the fiery SOutherners who show
their dislike of free speech and Il free
press by the free use of the rawhide
and of the pistol, but if Vermont is not
careful she will soon be the pot that
cannot afford to call the kettle black.

Judge Poland on Edmunds.

The Messenger gives prominence to
Judge Peland's views on the issue be-
tween the president and the senate.
The Judge thinks the senate undOubt-
eddy has the right to require the pro-
ductiOn of all the papers on file in the
departments relating to the removal
and appointment of federal officers,
but questions whether they are worth
the price they are likely to cost in time,
etc. Speaking of Senator Edmunds'
motives in pushing the. matter Judge
Poland gives expression to the views
he has long been understood to hold in
relation to the Vermont senator. 1t is
the old story of Edmunds' course in
1884 which has "discredited him in
Vermont" There is nothing new in
this or in the fact that Judge Poland is
sharply opposed to Edmunds' re-elec-
ton. He would himself, probably,
make a much better successor of Ed
munds than half dozen Gov. Smiths,
but this year it is Senator Edmunds
who, as a matter of fact, has not been
as strong in this state for many months
as lac is to-day.

The Old South.

From Lhe reports that were sent
North from CarrOlton, Miss, last week
it would appear that not all the South
nor all the SOutherners have become
imbued with the spirit of the "New
South Eighteen negroes, possibly
more, were shot dead. We place no con
fidence in the talk about the negroes
being the offending parties and that
''they belong to gang which for a
long time have terroriZed the white
citizens in and about CarrolltOn." 1t
was Il cold blOOded butchery of lot of
cOlOred men who were waiting to tes-
tify against white man in a sO-called
court of justice. The worst of the bu-
siness is that "the 80 white men, who,
well mounted and armed with Win
chester rifles, fired into the building,
where 20 of the negroes were waiting
To testify" will probably escape scott
free. This is the spirit of the old
South, fast dying out, thank fortune,
but still sufficiently alive to show what
it once was.

Value of a Good Name.

The New York Sun, in discussing the
Pan Electric scandal, furnishes re-
markable illustration of the loss in val
ne to n mans good name after he has
once permitted it to be trified with.
1t is doubtful, says the Sun, whether
any one now would give Mr.. Garland
SO much as even fifty dollars in stock
for the use of his name to promote the
fortunes of such IL scheme as the Pan
Electric. And, what is worse, nOt on
ly is it worthless to the company but
its once inestimable value to its Origi-
nal pOssessOr is sadly wasted away.
"Who steals my purse steals trash; tits something
nothing;
Twas mine, tbs his and has been slave to thou
sands;
But he that flches from my good name,
Robs me of that which not enriches him,
And makes me poor indeed"

YOUNG STRIKERS.

The rapidity with which the young
follow in the footsteps of their elders
finds striking illustration among the
strikers.
Twenty boys, whose ages ranged
from 10 to Is, and who were paid from
So to $3.50 a week for working from
o'clock in the morning until $50 in
the afternoon in New York cracker
factory, packing crackers, were so
wrought upon by the published reports
of the strikes going on all over the
country that they, too, struck, and a
committee was appointed to wait on
the firm. The regulation paper was
submitted demanding an increase of
pay and decrease of the number of
hours of labor. The factory was "pick
eted," and during the day zone scab
was whOllopped by a committee and
one committee was whaled by "a scab."
Toward evening most of the strikers
became convinced that it would be-
come wearisOme to lick all the boys in
New York, and that it would be best
to go back to their places while they
could. All but two did so, and went
to packing crackers again on the old
terms.
Another boy strike is reported in a
manufacturing town in Massachusetts
where a number of lads have been en-
in fIo
Boston dailies, receiving a quarter of
a cent for each paper sold. They de-
manded half a cent and, on being re-
fused, struck. Delegations were post
ed at the front and rear doors of the
agency to guard against scabs. Four
scabs startt d out with the papers, but
the boys made two go back. Another
received rough handling, and the last,
a boy of IL years, was surrounded and
compelled to return. This brought
out the proprietor, who accompanied
the boy on his route, followed by a
crowd of boys Justify screaming "scab."
Later the strike was settled by COM
promise, the boys being given third
of a cent. The little fellows had a
meeting and drew up their demands in
writing, to which was added the name
of every boy. If their demand had not
been acceded to, they were to parade
the streets with a banner, on which
was to be inscribed, "Boycott the
nswsdealer."
These events, say the local papers
that chronicle them, have been the
cause of much merriment aud talk.
We fail to see, however, where the
merriment in such affairs comes in.
The boys are becoming familiarized
with the methods of the secret labor
organizations great deal faster than
they are with the trades in which they
are engaged. 1t is not to be wonder
ed at that the result of all this expert

DARTMOUTH COLLEGE NOTES.

The concert by the Hungarian Clip
sy band on Wednesday night of last
week was we'll received.
The past week has witnessed to the
fact that Hanover mud surpasses all
other kinds of mud for depth and stick
mess. The streets have been in a ter
rible condition.
1t is expected that the Base ball as
ISOLATION will give fair similar to the
one last year, in the spring, and that
they will repeat the minstrel enter
tainment given few weeks ago.
The present term will close on April
9TH for a vacation of one week.
On Thursday and Friday of last
week the work of the Handel society
was under the direction of Prof. Keen,
of Boston. The society has been re-
organized lately and is now heading
what promises to be musical revival
in the college.
Although Dartmouth was forced
from the Intercollegiate league at
Springfield, the interest in base ball is
by no means dead, as was shown at
the enthusiastic meeting on Monday
night. An attempt had been made to
organize a league with Tufts, Wesley
an, University of Penn, and others,
but the project was unsuccessful. Then
it was decided to play the exhibition
games with Brown, Amherst and
Williams, and a subscription started
to raise funds to support the nine.
After few remarks pledges began to
come in aud within an hour and a half
over $500 was raised. The following
is the amount by classes ~ gave
$500, '89 gave $3.50, 'a8 gave 1921, and
'S6, $2l2. Probably there can easily
be raised enough to pay present debts
and leave fifteen hundred dollars.

THE FAIRBANKS HOUSE.
Very old, very queer and full of very old
and very queer things.

Very old, very queer and full of very old
and very queer things.
There are Fairbanks houses and
Fairbanks houses. Those in st. Johns
bury were built in this century; the
one i'm Dedham, Mass, was built $50
years ago. Mondays Boston Herald
gave an extended description of this
ancient affair accompanied with an il
lustratiOn. These items, gathered from
the article, may be of interest to some
of The CaledOnian readers as we have
before referred to this old house.
For $50 years the sturdy race of
Fairbanks, through seven generations,
have been born, have lived and died in
this house. There is one surviving
member of the family, Miss Rebecca
Fairbanks, who has lived there for sew
eral years, the last of the direct line.
The builder, Jonathan Fairbanks,
came from England in 1888. The fam
ily was an old one even then, and
among the treasures still preserved in
the old house are pieces of china and
furniture that were old when they
crossed the sea with Jonathan Fair
banks, 10 years after the Mayhower
came.
The founder of the Fairbanks in
America settled first in Boston, and
three years later went to Dedham and
built this house. The windows and
furnishings came from England, the
frame was of solid oak. The windows
had the small lOzenge shaped glass set
in lead frames that we see in the old
English houses to-day. These win
dows were long ago replaced by wood
en- ones, but the original windows are
still preserved. Jonathan Fairbanks
died in 1868, leaving six children, of
whom the eldest, John, was left in pos
session of the old homestead and from
him it descended to his son Joseph
The house remains in form and finish
very much as it was when it was first
built. 1t has an ancient gambrel roof,
moss grown. There is the old clean
to-" as it was called, the roof of which,
extending from the roof of the house,
reaches nearly to the ground. In the
''lean-to," was the dairy, with low,
lattieed windows, into which the
lilacs peep, and across one side are the
heavy oaken shelves which used to
hold thei pans of milk. Here is the
cid cheese press, which did woman
service for many years. The house is
filled with old furniture and crockery
that would tempt the purse of any
lover of the antique. Even the Fair
banks cats drink their milk out of an
cient blue saucers that would drive a
collector wild with envy and desire.

THOSE BANK SUITS.

We have no desire to engage in a
newspaper controversy with the st.
Adams Messenger over the bank suits.
AS a matter of fact the whole business
is now outside the Jurisdiction of the
state. 1t is for nine judges of the SUI
preme court to say whether Judge Po-
land and his associates are prosecuting
this appeal merely for delay, and not
for the people of st. Adams or even
for the Messenger, and on this the case
hinges so far as anything mere than
the regular rate of interest being charg-

bear referring our contemporary to
