or oppressive. A State should never issue
a promise to pay Of any kind, scrip or
bonds, nor should counties or cities,
and it should be made penal oTenso for
an officer to make contract for any pur-
pose or under any pretense, when there
was not money presently or prospectiyely
to meet it, As to the number OF Justices,
the usury clause and the exemption
clause, they are all so many hindrances

iects, il seems to u.s. a State Constitution
is desirable, and we advise our Arkansas
readers to weigh the proposition well be-
fore making up their minds.

HUMILIATING CONFESSION MADE BY

who Are Not so True.

Special Dispatch 10 The Appeal.
WASHINGTON, Aug. 22.-1he Republican
leaders today made rink and humiliat-
ing confession Of the embarrassing position
they are in with regard TO their tariff bill.
II has been known several weeks that they
were having an extreme difficulty in
reaching an agreement on the subject.
The day for reporting the measure has
been postponed from time 10 time, and on
each occasion thp excuse given for the de-
lay smackod OF disscnBion. The full policy
Of the party is apparent now, and II is to
hold Congress here as long rs
possible and keep up the agitation Of
the tariff question from this standpoint
till November. Mr.. Allison, OF the Senate
finance committee. approached Mr.. Beck
today and expressed adesire that the Ken
lucky Senator confer with his Democratic
colleagues with view 10 agreeing 20 re-
cess OF the Senate for two weeks from next
saturday. Mr.. Allison explained his re-
quest 10y saying that with two weeks time
at their disposal, and with no other bust
ness callinglor thcir attention, the Repub.
can Senators would be- able TO complete
their tariff bill and report IL Ia the Senate.
Mr. Beck conferred with his Democratic
colleagues, and the opinion was that
no such step m the one proposed
should bo taken. Mr.. Beck himself
agreed fully with the other Democratic
senators. The conclusion referred 10 WAS
that the proposition OF the Republicans
was one merely 10 gain time and thereby
he the better able 10 carry their project on
all the year. Mr. Beck reported the re-
suit Of hts conference with his friends 10
Mr.. Allison, an'l the subject was of course
dropped. IL may bc renewed, however.

The seizure of rum at Chas. Broulette's
dive i'm Burlington is thus described by
the Free Press: The barrels were slowed
away in a very artfully constructed hid
ing place. The attention of the officers
was first attracted by a partition made of
matched boards enclosing a small place
in the cellar to which there appeared to
be no entrance. BY tearing this down
and digging down in the ground w or
three feet they anne to a floor which was
supported by boxes. Removing all of
this, an underground space was seen to
the south large enough to hold three bar
rels, where the two barrels were found.
AS was found a~fterward, while the Off
GERS were at work in the cellar the pump
In the upper part of the house connected
with the barrels was at work, but there
was not sufficient time to entirely empty
them.
The Delaware and Hudson Canal COM
pany will make radical changes in rail-
road affairs in the State when they come
into possession of the Rutland road, it is
said. They will discontinue the line
from Chester to a point about our miles
above Bellows Falls, and swing the main
line from Gassetts through Springfield,
North Springfield, Gould's Falls and
along the west side of the Connecticut
river. This has caused much rejoicing
at Springfield, a prosperous manufacture
ing town that has always been without
railroad facilities. 1t has a rapidly in
creasing population and the road ex-
poets to increase its freight and passen-
ger business by the change. Another
change by the Delaware and Hudson will
be the building of a branch from West
Rutland to a point near the Orvillo mar
BILE company's quarry a mile and a half
north of Clarendon Springs Exchange.

II. IL. Bingham of Stowe and Robert
Wright of Montreal. The report of the
directors shows that the total gross ear
nings for the year ending June 30, 1888,
were 81, l13,313.4S; operating expenses,
S3,4~l6,62l.6l; net earnings, 81 1856, 751 sc.
From this there have been paid for taxes,
rents of leased lines, coupons and inter-
est 81 BOP ,0l9.12, leaving a balance of
S54.132.14. The directors say that the
freight traffic for the year equalled that
of the preceding year in volume, while
the passenger traffic shows a large in
crease both in volume and earnings. The
aggregate increase in the gross receipts
4 of,freight and passenger earnings amount
fed to about 1922 400 as compared with
1887.
