How to handle the migration prob
lem-to keep out criminals and pau
pers, and hold INSCRIPTIONS steam
ship companies to strict response
bility-will shortly demand the Sc
rious attention of our legislators.
The House committee of investiga-
ton, which gave searching scrutiny
into the whole subject in New York
city, has assigned to Mr.. Oates of
Alabama the difficult task of franz
ing an adequate and effective law
That gentleman proposes, among
other things, the following remedies
or changes: Intending emigrants to
this country must give notice of their
intention at least six months before
leaving home to an American consul !;
on arriving here they must make
affidavit that they have not been tax
en- from poorhouses, have not been
convicted of felony, that they are
not under contract for labor, and that
they have not been assisted by the
public authorities. Larger and bet
ter accommodations will be required
on board steamships, thus reducing
the volume and improving the quail
ity of immigrants by making transpor-
tation more expensive. These are
steps in the right direction. If to
these be added an extended period
of probation before the rights of cit
izenship shall be available, the prob
lem will cease to be vexing one.

he still refused to pull. He persisted
in baking and MIR. Drown persisted
in returning him to the tree, although
he had decided to shoot him on FRI
day morning if he was still contrary.
Thursday night at o'clock four men,
neighbors, went where the horse was,
saw him standing up quietly and APP
parently all right, until one approach
ed him, when he pulled back or fell
back to the ground, bringing his
neck into the chain i'm such a way as
to produce choking, if he was not
killed by the jerk on the chain. The
men, for some cause, did not think
best to try to get the horse up-tho'
one of them undertook it-but went
to neighbor's, procured a lantern,
and returned TO find the animal dead.
The affair created much excitement
and talk in the neighborhood, and
woke to life troubles of church and
that ought TO have been
forgotten long before it occurred.
The plaintiff claimed that the defend
ant had stated that he was guilty of
starving his horse to death, that the
act was cruel and inhuman, etc. The
plaintiff claimed also that the defend
ant had caused false reports TO be
in local papers, and that
his reputation had thereby been in
jured. The defendant claimed that
he had not circulated the reports in
form as set up IN the plaintiffs dec
laration. The case was sharply tried
on both sides, and the whole story as
above outlined told by witnesses pro !
and con, whose testimony in some
particulars differed widely. The jury
brought in for the defendant. Miles,
Thompson and Prouty for plaintiff

stood that the effect of this tariff lax
alton is not limited to the consumers
of imported articles, but that the du-
ties imposed upon such articles per-
nit corresponding increase in price
to be laid upon domestic productions
of the same kind, which increase,
paid by all our people as consumers
of home productions, and entering
every American home, constitutes a
form of taxation as certain and as in
evitable as though the amount was
annually paid into the hand of the
tax gatherer.
In reviewing the bad effects of the
accumulated surplus and the scale of
tariff rates by which it is produced,
we must not overlook the tendency
toward gross and scandalous public
extravagances which congested
treasury induces, nor the fact that
we are maintaining without excuse in
time of profound peace, substan-
TALLY the rate of tariff duties imposed
in time of war, when the necessities
of the government justified the impo-
sition of the weightiest burdens upon
the people.
The platform adopted by the Ma
tional Convention Of our party con-
tains the following declaration
"Judged by Democratic principles,
the interests of the people are be-
trayed when, by unnecessary taxation,
trusts and combinations are permit
ted and fostered which, while unduly
enriching the few that combine, rob
the body of our citizens by depriving |
them as purchasers of the benefits of |
natural competition" Such combin-
atoms have always been condemned
by the Democratic party. Under va
rious names they have been punished
by the common law for hundreds of
years, land they lost none of their bale
full features because they have assum-
ed the name of trusts instead of con-
spiracies.
With firm faith in the intelligence
and patriotism of our countrymen,
and relying upon the conviction that
Misrepresentation will not influence
Them, prejudice will not cloud their
understanding and that menace will
not intimidate them, let us urge the
peoples interest and public duty for

gurate righteous and beneicent re-

The Democrats and the Trusts.

The Democrats are likely to lose
all their interest in the subject of
Trusts if Senator Hoar continues his
merciless prodding of them much
longer. For two days the senator
has kept his Democratic associates in
the senate uncomfortable by the dis
tressing pertinacity with which he
has exhibited the close connection
between the most odious of these
trusts and the democratic campaign
treasury. Was there, for instance,
asked the senator on Wednesday, such
thing as a Standard Oil Trust And,
if so, was it represented in the senate
and in the presidents cabinet? And
was there a sugar trust, and were its
representatives consulted in the franz
ing of great revenue tariff bill |? And
was there cotton seed oil trust?
And was there a whiskey trust, and
what was its work in politics? And
was there an anthracite coal trust?
These pointed inquiries were unpleas-
ant for the democrats to listen to,and
inconvenient for them to answer, for
every trust which Mr.. Hoar enumer-
ated is headed by leading democrats
and represents copious contributions
to the democratic campaign funds.
Every one of them also is exempt
from the operation of such measures
as the proposition of Democratic Sen
ator George, to empower the presi-
dent to suspend the collection of du-
ties on commodities manipulated by
a trust. Senator Payne, who was
rather plainly aimed at in Mr.. Hoar's
question about the standard oil trust,
replied with the remark that he hard
ly knew what to say about the con-
nection of the standard oil trust with
the cabinet, and proceeded to demon
strate his incapacity by few feeble
and fioundering excuses. On Thurs
day Senator Hoar returned to the at
tack by citing the contributions made
to the democratic funds this year by
representatives of these trusts. "No
member of our party" said Mr.. Cleve-
land sententiously, in his letter of &C
ceptance, speaking Of trusts, twill be
found excusing the existence or be-
lifting the pernicious results of these
devices to wrong the people," Did
he forget Mr.. Havemeyer of the SUI
gar trust? And Senator Payne and
Secretary Whitney of the Standard
Oil and Cottonseed Oil trusts? And
Cong ressman Scott of the Anthracite
Coal Trust? And the various demo-
cratic magnates in the whiskey trust?
Or does he propose to read all these
gentlemen and thousands of other
democrats interested with them out of
the party? If so,we may be sure that
he will not be in a hurry to have a
decree of expulsion take effect until
after the election is over, and their
campaign gifts have been distributed
where they will do the most good.
Among the transparent hypocrisies
of the campaign, the democratic as
sumption of rage against the trusts
holds high place.

Meeting of the Veterans.

The Orleans County Veterans AS
ISOLATION held their annual meeting
and reunion in this place on Wednes-
day and Thursday last. The attend
ance was not quite up to that of last
year, but most of the veterans in this
section of the state were present.
The first day was spent to n consider
able extent in greetings and visiting
with comrades, though an hour or
two was given to short speeches, in
which Comrades Jenne, Rutherford,
Tucker, Moulton, Skinner, Young,
Hall, Nye and others participated. A
dress parade was held at 5 o'clock,
Capt. Moulton acting as colonel,
Capt. Tucker as adjutant. In the
evening the veterans and others met
in the village, and short addresses
were made from the Opera House pi-
azza, the people assembled on the pi-
azza and on the square. Col. u. M.
Mansur of Island Pond made the
chief speech, and dwelt quite at
length on the character of the Amer
lean soldiery. He attributed much
of the patriotism and the valor of
the Union soldier to his education and
the patriotic training of his youth.
He fought for principle, and exhibit
ed all the patience, endurance and
prowess it was possible to concen-
trate in the soldier. He spoke inter-
estingly of incidents connected with
the great battles of Gettysburg ,Spott-
sylvania and elsewhere. His address
was eloquent and able. Rev. Mr..
Worthen reluctantly volunteered to
fill the gap occasioned by the absence
of Maj. Grout, and spoke briefly, Civ
ing many interesting facts in regard
to the United States, both as to it's
greatness and its achievements. Com
rade Porter of West Burke was i'm
pressed into the service and made a
brief but timely speech. Some one
calling for remarks on the career of |
the late Gen. Phil. Sheridan, Capt.
O. III. Austin spoke of the great
of Gen. Sheridan at Ce-
dar Creek, when the routed horde of
Gen. Wright were turned about to
overcome and set "whirling through
the discounted and beat
en- troops of the rebel Gen. Early.
The buildings in the vicinity of Ope-
ra Block were illuminated, and the
scene was enlivened by a big bonfire,
lanterns, and excellent music from
Barton band. On Thursday, at the
business meeting, the following Of
ficers were chosen for the ensuing
year: President, E. HI. Nye of New
port; vice presidents, Daniel Skin
ner and E. S. Young; executive
j. n. Webster of Barton,
S. HI. Page of No. Troy; Albert
Cowles of Craftsbury; secretary and
treasurer, o. II. Austin of Barton
musician, f. A. Grow of
Barton. 1t was voted to hold the
next meeting on the Fair Ground at
Barton, and to have all the exercises
during one day. The drum corps,un-
der the management of Mr.. Grow,
furnished music for the grounds.

Maine is All Right.

The tidal wave that swept over
Vermont last week engulfed the de-
mocracy of Maine on Monday with
out abatement of it's force or volume.
Great significance must be attached
to these repeated and overwhelming
victories. Oregon, Rhode Island,
Vermont and Maine have spoken
their verdict on the issues raised by
Cleveland and the st. Louis conven-
vention, and in each case the repub-
lican majority is a surprise to the
most sanguine. Now, as it has been
said, the people of the states that
have voted do not differ from the
people of the other states, and so
their verdict is an unmistakable in
dication of the vote of the whole in
November. There is no escape from
this conclusion and we await the
ides of November with perfect con-
fidence In the election of Harrison
and Morton.
Nearly the entire state is heard
from and the result is plurality of
about 10000, probably a solid re-
publican senate, 122 republicans and
81 democrats in the house, every
county in the state republican, the
entire delegation in congress re-elect-
ed by increased majorities and no
break anywhere in the fruits of the
victory. The democracy would have
given anything for the defeat of
congressman Tom Reed, whose dis
trict is a close one usually, but lie is
returned by nearly three thousand
plurality.

The excellence of HARPER's MAGAZINE
for October is apparent even from hasty
glance through its pages. There are short
stories and long ones, sketches, "skits,"
poetry, and unsurpassed Illustrations.
The articles most striking, perhaps, are
Mr.. Theodore Child's Limoges and its
Industries" and L. l.. Whites description
of Western journalism. These con-
tain great store of useful Information,
and even the old facts are 80 presented
that they strike the reader with ew force.

National Republican Ticket.
Hill, the. saloon candidate, was nom

Hill, the saloon candidate,was NOM
mated for governor Wednesday by
the New York Democrats. The hon.
ester portion of the New York de-
mocracy earnestly protested against
this, and they say openly that 80, 900
of them will refuse to vote for Hill.
He relies on 'boodle" and the sa-
looms to pull him through, with the
aid of the political Prohibitionists.
The leaders of the latter evidently in
tend to play squarely into the hands
of the saloon interest. Can it be
that the honest rank and file of the
third party will consent to be so used?

Harriet Beecher Stowe lies serious

though more comfortable for the last

The assessors have just completed
their work in Dakota, and the returns
furnish another strong argument in
favor of the admission of that terri
tory into the Union as state. The
estimated amount of property is $751;
420,974.32. The number of acres of
land assessed is %, 1885,, 1916, the val
uation of which is $91, 1872, 729. The
valuation of town and city property
is S26, 125, $50, and that of horses,
cattle and sheep about S21, 100000.
The increase in the number of church
es, school-houses and newspapers
has kept even pace with this growth
in material wealth. And yet accord
ing to democratic theory the 10000
intelligent inhabitants of Dakota,
whose industry and forethought have
created this wealth, are not fitted to
exercise the rights of American citi-
zens. The election in November will
be the verdict of the people.

1t is no insignificant body of men
that is represented in the annual en-
campment of the Grand Army of the
Republic. The address of Command
er-in-Chief Rea last week shows that
nearly 400, 900 names are borne upon
the rolls of the order. Although the
deaths during the year exceeded
1000, the increase in membership
was large. 1t is a noble army, too
one of which every citizen of the re-
public can think with genuine pride.
Although the war is not yet quarter
of a century past, selfish and per-
verse generation is too apt to forget
the claims which these men have upon
the love and gratitude of the nation.
Such a gathering as that at Columbus
will serve no slight purpose if it i'm
presses the people with the debt owed
to the gallant soldiers who were ready
to give their lives for their country.

the new states. There is, | believe,
a present exigency that calls for
still more liberal and direct appro-
priations in aid of common school
education in the states.
/ notice with pleasure that the con-
vention did not omit to express it's
solicitude for the promotion of vir-
tue and temperance among our
people. The Republican party has
always been friendly to everything
that tended to make the home life
of our people free, pure and pros
porous, and will in the future be true
to its history in this respect.
Our fisheries should be fostered
and protected The hardships and
risks that are the necessary incidents
of the business should not be increas-
ed by an inhospitable exclusion from
the near lying ports. The resources
of firm, dignifed and consistent
diplomacy are undoubtedly equal to
the prompt and peaceful solution of
the difficulty that now exists. Our
neighbors will surely not expect in
our ports a commercial hospitality
they deny to us in theirs.
Inviting a calm and thoughtful
consideration of these public ques-
tions, we submit them to the people.
Their intelligent patriotism and the
good Providence that made and has
kept us nation will lead them to
wise and safe conclusions.
Very respectfully, your obedient
BENJAMIN HARRISON.
