The report of the condition, armament,
discipline and appearance OF the national
guard of Vermont, made by the United
States officer detailed to inspect them at
the late muster, will be found in another
column. 1t is a clear and careful docu-
mept and will be of interest not only to
the members of the militia but to all who
take an interest in our citizen soldiery.
Being an artillery officer, Lieut.. Leary
naturally pays good deal of attention to
the Fuller battery, and he considers it
probably one of the best in the volunteer
militia" Lieut. Leary concurs with the
officers of the national guard in the belief
that permanent camp ground will con
duce greatly both to the efficiency of the
militia, and to economy of the expense o.
the annual encampments.

The corn palace exhibition which has
Just closed at Sioux City, Iowa, was "a
enthusiastically western affair which
rs an advertisement, will be worth to that
region more than the SO 900 invested in
the enterprise. The structure itself is de-
scribed as novelty without rival any
where or at any time. 1t was one hun
bred and fifty feet square and had tower
one hundred and fifteen feet high at one
of the angles. The covering consisted OF
ears of corn sawed in halves and nailed on,
pretty designs appearing by means of the
grouping of ears of different colors. TIC
add to the effect, grasses, wheat and other
grains were used for ornamentation. A
correspondent of the Burlington H0Wkeyt
says that 'pen cannot describe, or imag
ination picture, the wonderful combina
ton of nature and art displayed in thu
beautiful palace"

On the 10th of November. 1856, Presi
dent Cleveland wrote letter, in which lie
said
| do not think that federal
official can enter a political cam
paign and consenting to long
list of engagements to address politi-
cal meetings widely separated and of daily
occurrence, I'LL such engagements, with
out neglecting his duty, if he holds an
Office worth having, nor without taking
with him in the canvass his official power
and influence.
And though he discharged the official
whose appearance on the stump had occa-
stoned his letter, the official, it Is need
less to say, was republican. Since then
we have seen Postmaster Redington Of
Rutland stumping Vermont for the demo-
cratic party, and hundreds of democratic
postmasters in other States engaged in
similar political work, and the postmas-
ter-general of the United States, Mr.. Don
VI. Dickinson, addressing political meet
ings and freely using his official power
and influence for purely partisan purposes
all without rebuke from Mr.. Cleveland.
1t has long been evident that the only "of-
! fensive partisanship" to Mr.. Cleveland
was republican craftsmanship; and his re-
fusal to apply to members of his own
party the rules which he has enforced
against republican officials grows more
shameless as time goes on. Yet the
New York Times had the cheek to say the
other day that mo president has evel
done so much to advance the reform of thu
civil service and make it permanent"

New Hampshire, although one OF the
smallest States in the Union, has the
largest representation in its Legislature.
Its Senate numbers twenty-four, and the
House of Representatives three hundred
and eight members. At present gov
ernor, councillors, senators, and mem
bers of the New Hampshire Legislature
are elected in November but do not quail
ify until the following June, or seven
months after the election. Under this
arrangement the State finds itself once in
four years with but one United States
senator from the fourth of March until
the meeting of the LEGISLATURE, unless
one is appointed by the governor. To
remedy this and other defects, a constitu-
tional convention has been called, which
will meet in Concord next January. 1t is
thought that among the amendments
submitted by the convention will be one
changing the time of the meeting of the
Legislature from June to January, 1t is
also proposed to cut down the representa-
ton so that the House shall be reduced to
one hundred and fifty members, and to
pay them fixed salary instead of the
present per diem of three dollars with
mileage

Vided that two iron binding rods should
be placed lengthwIse through the traps-
verse wing. This was not done by the
contractor. These rods we're designed
to hold the north walliu place against
the pressure OF the several series OF cell
arches and the weight OF the interior
structure. HAVING been left out, there
was nothing but the unsupported
strength of the wall for the arches to
push against. This wall was crowded
out. 1t has also been ascertained that
the wooden forms under the arches were
taken out before the mortar was dry
The removal Of these forms and the
absence of binding rods left the struc.
ture ct the mercy Of the force of gravity,
which proved too strong for the weak
resistance presented. 1t is claimed that
the wooden forms were removed by
some unauthorized carpenter, whose
name is not divulged.

The SALOON SIDE.

Another Correspondent Tolls What he
Believes Relative to The Effect al
Local Prohibition.
10 the Press aud Dakotalan: Permit
a tax payer OF this city to express his
views upon the effects of local option.
In the ffss place it would close the
front doors of saloons and not the back
DORIS.
In the second place it would take away
The revenue derived from licenses and
still leave holes in the walry and "blino
pies.'
Thitdly. 1t would increase our taxes il
order to make up the sums loet from liz
%censes. For proof look at Grand Forks
and other local option towns.
Fourthly. 1t would rot close or affeci
Wholesale houses.
Filthy. IL would Increase the number
Of oar drug stores and the doctor pre-
scription business would flourish.
Sixth'y. In Yapkton it would empty
about twenty business rooms or stores
and landlords would be obliged to reduce
their rents without any reduction of as
sessed% valuation. There are now six or
seven bueiness places vacant on Ihi,d
street alone.
Seventh. It would TURF out of en-
ployment at least one hundred men, who
II they produce nothing Tin which re-
spect they are like lawyers and speou.
~iators) yet they are copsumers and
patronage the grocer, butcher. tailor,
shoemaker, &C., and pay taxes.
Eighth. 1t will force the saloon keep
er to engage in 8 me other business and
he will then compete with other bust
ness men. In this connection il is we'll
known that there is no demand for
more groeers, butchers, bakers, druggists
or lawyers, Even the ministry is over
crowded and school teachers are ss
plenty as brigadier generals were in
Washington during the rebellion. These
closed up saloon men and their employees
who are all consumers would either have
to 60 into competition with other bust
ness men leave the town or 60 TO the
poor house.
Ninth. Local option, if rigidly en-
forced, would build up o saloon town
across the river, in Nebraska, where
Yankton men could get drunk and be
shipped home. Thus Yankton would
get the drunkenness but not the revenue
For proof OF this see Oovlngtop, oppos-
ite Sioux City.
These are some OF the objections from
a business point of view to local option /.
There are others. We are al interested
in keeping down taxes. We pay an
enormous school tax, and this 10 not
objected to, so long rs we have men who
pay taxes. We are interested in in
creasing our population, SO as to enable
US to pay for municipal improvements.
We are interested 10 holding the trade
OF the farmers in western Yankton coun-
ty, who, if local option is carried, will do
their trading at Scotland and Tyndall.
Morally considered, the question may
be discussed in another CIRCLE. In the
above I have given some of the reasons
why / shall !ote in favor of license.
