As an indication of the opinion of the
Changers concerning the tariff, this ex-
tract from the address of the Master Of
the National Grange is of interest. The
National Body held its annual meeting
at Topeka, Kansas, last week, and the
address referred to was adopted as eX.
pressing the sense of that body. Re.
garding the tariff the Master said 1.-The
whole tendency of tariff legislation here.
tofOre has been to give liberal protection
10 the manufacturing and mining indus
tries, leaving the agricultural products
but lightly protected, while some of its
most important products, notably that
of wool, it has been proposed to have on
the free list. A careful study and con-
sideration of our present tariff law
shows that the average duty of all inter-
ests combined is about AZ per cent. ;
that the manufacturing interests alone
are protected TO the amount of So per
cent, while the average on agricultural
products is only about 20 per cent. This
inequality has existed altogether too
long, and although our political instruc-
tors inform us that the home market
which manufacturing industries give to
agriculture should atone in a great
measure for this inequality, we are bold
ly confronted with the fact that the ag-
ricultural toilers even in the manufact-
uring districts are having a hard strug-
gle to acquire the necessaries of life.
The declaration ofpurposes of our order
demands protection for the weak, res
traint upon the strong Equitable tar
if legislation is an issue second to none
in importance in this direction, and, TO
accomplish anything, we must use our
undivided influence and organized pow
err in demanding a reduction of the high
ly protected Industries to correspond
with the protection agriculture is now
receiving, or else an increase of protec-
ton to agriculture that shall be just and
equitable to all concerned"

Presidency this year; but we think il
can safely be said that in the contest OF
ideas and popular education which has
Just ended the New York Tribune fairly
surpassed all competitors on the Repub-
lican side in the originality, force and
success of it's work in behalf of the ma
tional ticket. The Tribune did not make
a mistake. Every blow it struck made
clearer TO men OF both parties the abso-
lutte impregnabiliiy Of the Republican
position. II certainly set people to
thinking, by it, brOadsides on civil ser
vice reform, the tariff. the dscrlmina-
lions of the Cleveland administration
against Union sci liers, ITS revelations
Of the DRIFT OF wage earners away from
the free trade party, Ita admirable work
for the farmers aud for temperance, and
the pertis'ency with which IL claimed
and proved that England desires the
defeat of protection in America. Over

RAILROAD NOTES

The Bennington & Rutland Railway
Company have had a gravel train at
work upon the North end of their line,
adding the ballast, and as the winter sets
in probably no railroad in New England
has better road-bed and track.
The old Lebanon Springs Railroad also
feels the signs of improvement all
around. S'eel rails for 90 miles of new
track have been purchased and six miles
has already been laid. Work is pro-
crossing rapidly on this job. With the
iron bridges and new track lain by the
N. Y R & NJ. Co., and these add ional
20 miles BY Receiver Reynolds, there is
new track and ballasted road-bed be-
tween Benn nGton and Chatham on this
line.

present year 81 cars have been added to
the passenger equipment, including II
passenger coaches, six combination cars,
one mail car and three baggage cars.
This rolling stock embraces all of the

company has also enlarged its freight
equipment to the extent of 743 merchan-
disc cars of all kinds, including 100 gon-
dola coal care, each of % tons capacity
and with double hopper bottoms, so
four wheel dump cars. 80 carriage cars,
100 refrigerator cars, 30 stock cars and
seven cabooses. With the exception of

Maxwell Must Hang.

On January 23d the United States SUI
preme Court in Washington rendered a
decision in the Maxwell-Preller murder
case, dismissing the case for the want of
jurisdiction. The effect of the decision
is to affirm the sentence of death pro-
nounced by the Missouri State Court.
The decision unnerved the little chloro-
former. When it was told him for the
first time he showed unmistakeable
signs of uneasiness, and paced up and
down the corridor of the jail with
nervous tread. He refused to believe
the statement made to him and refused
to talk until he had heard from his at
torney. Mr.. Fountelroy, one of the at
torneys for the defense, was much taken
back, and said the only hope he now
had was to apply to the Supreme Court
for rehearing, and in the event of an
other failure to seek executive clemency,
from which source he had some hope.
