The state has built costly reform
schools and houses of correction and
expended large sums of money on its
state prison-much of which smacks
more of desire for show and luxury,
of false notions of public affairs, than
of wise and philanthropic regard for
the veal of the erring. The criminal
children are housed in state and pro-
vided with means of grace denied to
those whom il should be the first object
of craftsmanship to make and preserve
good and virtuous citizens. The
officials have been built luxurious
abodes, while the taxpayer has been
surrendering his home on mortgage
foreclosure. The judges have been
paid salaries muni6cent for Vermont,
and their compensation has been in
creased from time to time, while the
teachers in the public schools have
been performing their important and
laborious duties at starvation wages.
IuGIC Has DGth III IDC bldlC IL IT,
versal of the true order of things.
Thousands of dollars for cure and few
paltry pence for prevention has been
the practice, if not the avowed policy,
of previous legislatures. This sort of
craftsmanship has gilded the dome of
the state edifice, but neglected its
crumbling foundations. High taxes
for expenditures of doubtful utility or
questionable necessity, low taxes for
schools and niggardly appropriations
for such a fundamental source of state
wealth as agriculture, this is the basis
of our correspondents Indictment, and,
we grieve to say, he is sustained by the
history of legislation during the period
to which he refers. We trust the acts
of the present session will mark new
departure in the policy of the state.
Let it stop building reform schools,
houses of correction, enlarging pris-
ons, and raising official salaries, long
enough to do something generous and
effective for the decaying schools and
the languishing farming interest. Halt
the head of the procession till the rank
and file catch up.

Savings Banks and Trust Companies.

Experience is no misnomer, APP
piled to the author of the able letter on
savings banks published elsewhere in
this issue. The suggestion that the saw
ings banks and trust companies should
never have been united, and ought
now to be divorced, is worthy of con-
sideration. When savings banks were
first established in this state they were
connected with banks of discount, and
the officers of one were generally the
officers of the other. In 1857, we be-
lieve, the state decreed the divorce of
the two institutions, but in 1870, after
the extinction of the state to make room
for the national banks, the legislature
began to charter combination institu-
tons, styled savings banks and trust
companies, which, while receiving saw
ings deposits, take business deposits
also and do general anking business,
performing all the functions of the old
state banks, with the exception of is
suing circulating notes. The law sep
arating the savings institutions from
banks of discount was enacted more to
remove opportunity for trouble than to
cure any serious existing evil; and we
presume this is the point of Expe-
rience's' suggestion. Danger is feared
from the "incompatibility" in the hui
man heart between strict regard for
the best welfare of others and for ones
self, in cases where that ones own sell
fish interests are involved. So, as
when an irreconcilable difference be-
tween parties to the marriage relation
exists, divorce is decreed, "EXperi-
ence" favors the separation of the
savings from the trust or banking in
stitutions.
Our correspondent, with force and
clearness that iustfies his nom depltme,
sets forth the objections to the recon-
mendations of the finance inspector
and the governors, and particularly to
the legislation recently proposed to the
general assembly. AS a candid and in
telligent presentation of the question
from the side of the banks, the COM
munication deserves very careful con-
sideration.

The Trust i'm Politics.

" Antitrust" a correspondent of
the Buffalo ETpreSS, gives these timely
and truthful words in regard to this
gigantic monopoly: Senator Sher-
man of Ohio puts himself squarely on
the antitrust plank of the national re-
publican platform by introducing a bill
in the United States senate to declare
unlawful trusts and combinations in re-
stralnt of trade or production, and hav-
ing it referred to the committee on
finance. 1t declares unlawful and
void all arrangements. contracts, agree
ments, trusts or combinations between
persons or corporations made with
view, or which tend to prevent full and
free competition in the production,
manufacture or sale of articles of do
nestle growth or production, or in the
sale of articles imported into the United
States or that tend to increase the cost
of such articles to the consumer. Any
person or corporation injured by such
an arrangement or trust may sue for
and recover in any United States court
the amount of damages suffered. Any
corporation that takes part in any such
arrangement forfeits its corporate fran
chise, and the United States district at
torney is to institute the proper pro-
ceedings to enforce such forfeiture.
This bill is certainly measure in the
interest of the people, and ought, and
probably will, pass both branches of
congress. 1t will then be interesting
to see its fate before the Cleveland
Payne-W hitney-Standard Trust Com
bine in the White House. President
Cleveland appears to believe in the
protection idea" only so far as it APP
plies to trusts and combines with which
he is affiliated. The Sherman bill pro-
vides for the prosecution of trusts by
the United States district attorney where
the complaint is filed. The operation
of the antitrust measure may be
greatly embarrassed in the United
States court districts like ours where
Cleveland has appointed as United
States district attorney Standard Oil
attorney. Cleveland seems to have
hedged as much as possible in the in
! terest of the trusts in all directions, and
the nomination of our townsman, Dan
lei O'Day, as presidential elector, the
| leading local Standard magnate of
Buffalo, shows how fully the Cleve-
land reform democrats are pledged to
the trusts that are crushing the people
by making them pay combination prices
for fuel, food and clothing. The people
will remember that only one trust con-
spiracy existed when Cleveland was in
augurated president, and the vast trust
system that covers everything from the
cradle to the coffin, including milk and
whiskey, has grown up under an admin
istration styled democratic by its devo-
tees.n

The Railway Bill.

Representative Holton of Bratte-
boro has laid out work for the railway
committee that should have early and
faithful consideration. Section one of
the bill provides for publicity of rates
of freight and passenger fares. Sec
ton two demands equality of rates,
terms and facilities, and requires ten
days. notice of a rise in rates. Section
three prohibits free passes except in
certain specified cases to railway Of
iicials and trip passes to objects of
charity. 1t further forbids railroads to
take directly or indirectly, by way of
rebate or otherwise, for freight or pas
sengers, a greater or less sum than the
published rates. Section four forbids
construction of the preceding sec
tons so as to prevent an immediate re-
duction of passenger fares or freight
rates. Section five permits the sale of
mileage or excursion tickets at reduced
rates, and allows special rates for pub
lie meetings, agricultural fairs, ETC.,
and the carrying of exhibits free.
Section six enacts the long and short
haul provision. Section seven pro-
vides pains and penalties for the viola
ton of the commandments and prohi-
billions of the act.

Further Testimony.

We recently published figures from
the consular report of G. w. Griffin on
Australian wool, from which it appeared
that the exports of wool from the port
of Melbourne alone more than doubled
in the five years following the reduction
of the wool tariff in 1SS3-a result
highly satisfactory to Australian, but
correspondingly depressing to the
American, wool-growers. Here is some
testimony from the New Zealand Times,
which, starting out with the curious pre-
mise that in this country nomination
is equivalent to an election to the presi-
dency, says:
Wool-growers throughout the colony
will, no doubt, be pleased to note the
unopposed return of President Cleve-
land for another term to the presiden-
tial chair of the United States. Cleve-
land has been steady advocate for a
modified tariff in the importation of
wool to the United States, and it was
due to his energetic and persistent adj
vocacy that the matter reached so for
ward a start as to be discussed at all in
the senate. President Cleve-
land, when the opportunity again
arrives to reintroduce the scheme, will
certainly do so, and it is devoutly to be
hoped that it will be accepted, fraught
as it is with such importance to New
Zealand, and to the Middle island
especially, from which comes the bulk
of the cross-bred wool. 1t is
only a matter of time when the inn
ports of wool by the people of the
United States, not large now compare
lively, will be very large indeed, and
for this demand New Zealand must
provide portion of the supply.
President Cleveland would unques-
tionably be reelected if all of Queen
Victoria's subjects could vote for presi-
dent in November.

American Schools.

wish 1 could say few words of
undiluted praise for American schools
from sanitary point of view; but
many years experience on school
boards compels me to believe and say
that there are few better, more effect
i've and rapid means of injuring child's
system, physical and mental, than
steady adherence to our hours of school
within doors, and of lessons without.
Every successive generation finds less
and less practical knowledge among our
young people, with steadily decreas-
ing rate of increase of species, until it
is but question of few years when
there will be no more full-blood Ameri-
can women to keep up the race. Brains
and central nerves are overtaXed sys-
tematically, and the few moments per
diem allowed for relaxation are en-
ployed in reading novels or otherwise
weakening physical powers that are
already below par, Few school-rooms
are constructed or furnished with re-
gard to the health of little ones who
spend so many of their best hours
therein, and attempts to better such a
condition fail because there is no money
to be made out of the contract. What
then, are we to do? Take the chances,
presume, and send our children to do

DIR. Holton has presented simple
but comprehensive measure for bring
ing state railway regulation up abreast
of the leading provisions of the inter-
state commerce act and the recommen-
dations of both Ex-Governor Ormsbee
and Governor Dillingham;. There is in it
nothing radical or irrational, revolution
airy or oppressive to the railways. 1t
simply embodies what have become after
long and bitter contests the recognized
and established rights of the people in
relations to the railways-the crea-
lures of their creation. A law of this kind
is an important link in the chain of
legislative enactments that should start
Vermont out on new career of pros
perity and remove the trammels from
the progressive spirit of her sons.

General Dickinson that the system of
protection was devised for the benefit
of New England, which with the rest
of the East gets all the advantage of it,
while the West bears the burdens. Mr..
Blaine said he had been gathering sta
tistics and found that New England
takes between 500 1000 and 600,0 900 tons
of grain annually and raises only four
per cent of what her people use for
breadstuff. "Next," said Mr.. Blaine,
"there are annually received in this
country, 300,000,000 pounds of wool.
We had only 100000 pounds of wool
grown annually by the farmers of
the country when free-trade tariff
was in operation just before the
war Under the effect of the pro-
tective tariff we have increased the
amount of wool grown almost wholly
in the West to 300,000,000 pounds an
nually, and it brings vast aggregate
of nearly Sl00,000,000 to the farmers
of the country. Cleveland recon-
mends the duty on that to be repealed
and that we shall put the wool-grower
of the West on the same plane as the
wool-growers in Australia and Canada.
The republicans say "no," and New
England takes every year half of that
entire wool crop and pays the West
S15, 000, 900 year for it, Beside, New
England needs bread for which she
pays the West S20,000,000 a year; she
needs other provisions, and for that
New England pays the farms of the
West 1000 900 a year. The aggre-
gate which New England pays to the
West is well up to 5000, 900, 900. This
little bit of New England, of which
Dickinson speaks contemptuously as
only having 100000 people, this little
bit of a frozen place on the northeast
coast of the United States, takes
$1,000, 900 worth of cotton from the
Southern states, and goes down to
Pennsylvania, Maryland and West Vir-
ginia and of the products of coal, iron
and steel takes S56,000,0 900 more. In
the grand aggregate that little bit of a
piece of country takes more than $780,
900 worth of material from the
other states of the Union and in the
grand exchange between the East and
the West makes trade profitable to
both, and then keeps money at home
instead OF sending it beyond the sea,
and the total value of the products we
sent to old England last year was $685.
100000. Now, gentlemen, if you want
! to know what the value of a home
market at your door is by the exchange
of industries, see what 1000 900 people
engaged in the arts and industries can
take from you at your door"
