ELECTRICAL DETECTIVE CAMEBA.-The
relation Of electricity to crime which be
gan with invention Of burglar alarm de.
vices, has been extended IN the shape of
an electrical detective camera, invented
by two Newark men. Their idea is to
have the device fixed in the walls of
banking houses behind the tellers, and
so arranged as to photograph whoever
stands at the teller's window, in case the
mans picture is wanted. The little but
ton that does the work of opening the
camera shutter, making the exposure,
dropping the plate and putting in a new
plate, viii be under the teller's desk, so
that he can, without betraying himself,
instantly take the picture of any one
who excites his suspicion. This same
camera can be put mp III police stations
Ia the same way, and as the prisoners
are brought in they can be photographed
without knowing it and having a chance
to distort their features when sitting for
the Rogues' Gallery. New York Sun.

The ALUM BAKING POWDERS,
ACTION OF THE MASSACHUSETT
STATE BOARD OF HEALTH.
The Names of the Alum Brands Published
The Methods by Which they are
Sold Necessity for IA National
Pure Food Law.

The Massachusetts State Board of
Health, like the State Food Commission
of Ohio, publishes the names of the alum
powders found on sale within its jurisdic-
ton AS the most effective way to prohibit
the sale of what it classes as detrimental
article of food.
The report names twenty-seven brands
of alum baking powders detected, many
of which will be recognized by housekeep.

representation that they were pure and
wholesome cream of tartar baking pow.
ders.
Being cheaply made these goods are sold
to the retail dealer at price that affords
him large profit, and the retail dealer,
probably unaware of their nature, is in
duced to pushed their sale in place of pure
powders of which the profits are. smaller
In this way they are being placed in con
siderable quantities into the hands of con
sumers who have not suspicion of their
real character.
Alum baking powders have been legally
declared adulterated articles of food in the
State of New York, and several parties
have been convicted of violating the food
and aduteration laws in selling them.
The prevalent method of disposng of
these goods where it is not prohibited by
law, is by accompanying each package with
gift OF lottery ticket. In several States
acts have been passed making this a
misdemeanor. Ia such localities m4nu-
facturers of alum baking powders who re-
gard the law have been compelled to re-
duce the price from 30 or 40 to 20 cents per
pound, at which rate they are generally
sold without Il gift. AS an Illustration of
the low value of the alum baking powders,
the fact is stated that one of them, no
worse than the others, is sold at , cents
pound. The extent to which the poorer
classes, who are their chief users, are i'm
apparent.
lhc following are the names of the
alum baking powders as given by the re-
ports OF the Massachusetts State Board of
Health:

Emigration from Vermont.

A correspondent of the FREE PRESS, in
an elaborate and extended article in our
columns brings together in compact form,
a large amount Of information Ie ting to
the perennial exodus of Nerm0ujers from
Vermont. "W hat is the matter with
Vermont" lie asks, that 80 many of her
sons should leave her green hill-des for
other homes 1t IS easier to ask tAau TO
answer the que s'iOn but the answer, we
fancy, must be mAiuiy found in the char
acter of Our people, rather than in the
soil or climate OF our State. Vermont is
certainly not barren land, and its elm
ate subjects its nnebitauts to fewer and
smaller risks than that of the cyclone and
blizzard-swept regions to which many
Vermunters emIgraLe. But our native
Nermonters are "A pretty restless race.
Tue young man wants to leave his home
about as soon as he is his own master,
and push off to seek his fortune. BY the
time he finds it, though in most cases it is
no larger than he could have found with
equal enterprise, self-denial and energy
at home, he has become fixed elsewhere,
and though he commonly never loses his
pride and interest in his native State, the
ties which surround him hold him where
he is. And us his chief interests are in
the newer State which has become his
home, he begins to call thither as many
as he can of his old companions remain

peated yearly by thousands, and continued

Every Vermonter remaining in the old
State has his relatives in some one or Il
dozen Western States, and he and his
sons are under constant pressure from
their western friends to join them there,
while land is cheap and sure to rise in value.
1t is pressure to which many yield, some
times to their sorrow. How long this
| process Is to continue, and what can be
done TO counterfeit it, Is not very appa
rent. Something can be done, no doubt
by truthful and systematic exhibition to
our own people of the real advantages
which our State presents in its good soil

general laws of trade. The time is not fal

Many New England farmers are doubt
less wondering whether it will pay them
to plant potatoes this spring or not. The
importation of foreign potatoes in New
York since November has amounted to
100000 bushels, against receipts of 2, 325,-
900 bushels of home grown potatoes. The
recent receipts of foreign potatoes have
been largely in excess of the domestic and
it is likely that by April l the foreign
will exceed the domestic receipts. The
tariff duty on potatoes is fifteen cents
per bushel and yet it seems that they can
be imported and sold at less price imam
the American farmer can afford to sell
them.

Governor.
Our ancestors, ever Il law-abiding and God
fearing people, lived and died imbued with
an unutterable faith IN divine goodness and
mercy and the efficacy of prayer. They ever
recognized the duty of living religious lives
devoted to God and to the proper observa CO
of his teachings, aud ia consequence enjoyed
both happiness and prosperity.
In their thankfulness, and in recognition of
their dependence upon divine aid, they estab-
lished u custom of having annually a day set
apart by constituted authority to be devoted
to religious worship and devotion to God.
Believing that this custom of the fathers
vas wise as well as beneficial to the State
und to individuals, and that 1t ought to he

point Friday, the 9th day OF April next, as IL

The amount of public discussion of the
matter of the chief iusticeship mag at
first thought appear unseemly in view of
he fact that the funeral of the late chief
justice has only just taken place but it is
not unnatural or improper in view of the
Importance of the subject. The chief
justice of the Supreme Court is appointed
for life and in one sense the position may
be said to be the very highest in the I'm
tied States. The chief justice sits at the
head of the branch of the government
whose decisions settle what shall be the
law for president and Congress and peo-
pie. The country has shown its capacity
to get along with very ordinary
men for presidents, members of cab
inets and legislators, but only man of
superior qualifications can fill the position
of a jus .ice of the Supreme Court which
is the bench of last resort, COM
PEELED to pass on the decisions
of all other courts and to decide upon the
most important AID Intricate points of
constitutional law. The position requires
of the members OF the court not only very
high legal abilities but robust phys cal
health and freedom from the infrmities
which are natural in men who have
passed the three score line in years. The
man who is 20 follow in the footsteps Of
Marshall, fancy, Chase and Waite and
cope with the great and difficult questions
arising from the continued growth and de
velopment of the country, must have a
patriotic heart a. well as a level and log
zeal head aud legal learning. 1t is for
these reasons that the question as to who
shall be at the head of this high tribunal
is such an important one, and it is for these
reasons that any talk of elevatng Villas
Hoadley, Dickinson, or any narrow. guage
politician to the position should be
frowntd down OF course the new chief
justice will be democrat. Whether he
shall be chosen for partisan purposes or
with primary view to his fitness for the
exalted trust imposed upon him is ques
ton for President Cleveland to determine.
1t is by far the most important appoint
ment he will have to make, and it is quite
possible that it may be held open and used
as a political lever till after the national
election.

The death of Chief Justice Waite re-
moves one of the most honored as well as
distinguished men Of the day in the Unit
ed States, and owing to the uncertainty
which will attend the appointment of his
successor, his loss at the present time will
be all the more deeply felt. Morrison X.
Waite was born at Lyme, Conn, Nov -,
1916 He graduated from Yale in 1887 and
after his admission to the bar he T, moved
10 OHIO, where he practiced law success
fully in Maumee City and Toledo lie
was member o. the State Legislature in
1919 and did good service, and won "A ma
tional reputation by his services as one of
che arbitrator of the Geneva tribunal in
1872. He was elected president of the
Ohio constitutional convention in 1873
and in March, 1874, was appointed by
President Grant chief justice of the
United States. His course in that position
up to the time of his death has been
free from political or personal prejudice,
and although there may have been men
OF more solid attainments on the Supreme
bench he brought TO his position a sense
of personal honor and keen insight
which won the respect of his associates
and crowned his services with success.

The New York Tribune alludes as fol
ows to the bearing of the result of the
oming national campaign on the compo-
-ition and character of the Supreme
Court of the United States: "When Mr.
Wate's successor has been appointed, two
places will be filed with democrats, Three
of the remaining judges have already
passed the retiring age. This makes it
Pr actically certain that the next president
will determine the political character of
the court, and the voters of thu country
will be called upon to decide whether or
not it shall be democratic-with all that
word implies
