LEARN TO BE sELF.sUppoRTING.

New York is greatly interested in
the case of Miss Jennie Wehle, who,
though the daughter of a millionaire,
prefers to work for living, and ac-
cordingly has become typewriter in
the Lincoln bank, Of which ex-Post-
master General James is president.
Miss Wehle is SO we'll pleased with
her work that she has declined sew
eral times to relinquish it and accept
fiattering offers of marriage.
When she announced her wish to
learn stenography and type writing
as a means of support her father and
relatives opposed the plan. She was
surrounded by every luxury, and all
the money she required could be had
for the asking. Why, then, should
she become ''bread winner" This
line Of argument did not deter her
from carrying out her plans, and in
six months she was sufficiently ex-
pert as typewriter to copy briefs
and attend to correspondence in her
fathers law office, and after doing
this for a year, she accepted her
present position with a liberal sala-
ry. During her engagement there
she has been as prompt IN her atten-
dance and as diligent in her duties
as any other employe of the institu-
ton.
Miss Wehle's action calls atten-
ton to a very important fact, viz,
that all girls, no matter what the
financial condition OF their parents,
should fit themselves for some work
by which to support themselves in
the event it becomes necessary to
do so. A great deal may be learned
at home, and many of the schools of
the country now fit young ladies for
different occupations. Girls who
work need have no fear of being
dropped" by associates and friends
in society. The most sensible mem
bers of society do not regard work
as disgraceful, and it is the compan-
ionship and esteem of such people
which are to desired.

HE GOT THERE AT LAST.

A good deal of fun is being made
In the newspapers of a rich old
farmer up in the Connecticut valley,
who, in his 85th year, has espoused
15-year-old bride, says the Lowell
Times, and who gives the following
account of the hereditary courtship
which has at length resulted in this
ill-assorted match.
81 knowed her grandma and
waited her, but she wouldn't see to
it. She married my biggest enemy,
and had a daughter. | courted that
daughter when her folks wasn't
round, but somehow they got wind
Of it and | was dished again. She
went and got married and had
daughter. Says |, Jonathan, you'll
marry this'n and settle down glum-
like 10 wait for the youngster to
grow up. Martha's folks watched
me close, and | began to suspect I'd
have to wait for the next family,
when they died-all of them died
and Martha was left without no rel
atives, SO popped the question and
We were married.

A large English farmer says that
his manure which is taken from the
stables and piled up under a shed
all winter, is worth in the spring
four times as much ..as that which
has been exposed to the weather.
This is undoubtedly nearly correct
if the exposure be bad one, such
for example as throwing the man
ure out of the stable window and
letting it rest in pile against the
side Of the stable exposed to the
rain dripping from the roof. In
this way the most of fertilizing salts
are drained out of it into the earth
below the heap or are washed away
in the overflow of the yard, and the
manure is left of little value.

Montpelier contributed $250,0OO to the build
ing of the Wells River road. OF her bonded
debt $40, 800 became due January |, 1888, and
$4,000 will mature January, 1891. Tomeet
that alone will require a tax of about 30
on her grand list. Like st. Johnsbury, she
has bonded in large amounts for other pub
lie works. Plainfeld Marshtield and
Groton also bonded in sums of about $4,000
each for the building of the above road and
are sustaining high rate OF taxation. In
the Lamoille Valley the towns generally
bonded in aid of the Portland & Ogdens-
burg, or the road that now passes under
that title. The amounts we have not at
hand, but Wolcott's average tax rate for
1886 and 'S7 was S1.9S, Morristown, $25S;
Hyde Park, S1.73. Is there any justice
or equity in continuing to pour money
into the Golfers of the fat and thriv-
ing towns of Grand Isle, and not also ex-
tend helping hand to towns like Concord
and Walden, for example, with small grand
lists rough and inhospitable in their gen
eral characteristics, taxes enormously high
struggling along under crushing burden of
debt contracted in aid of a public enter
prise that has been vastly beneficial to the
whole state? Or to the towns along the
Wells River road? Saying nothing of the
development of the states resources that
has followed the opening up of the country
along the line of the latter road, the saving
to the state in the single item of mileage to
members of the general assembly by the
cross country cut from Wells river IS no
small item in the general count. 1t may be
further stated that the average of taxation
in each of the other counties of the state is
higher than in Grand Isle and in most of
them from fifty per cent to one hundred per
cent higher.
BE JUST TO ALL.
Now we are not claiming that the state
should assume the railway debts of these
town, entire or in part. We do claim,
however, that favortism in the giving
of state aid must cease, or that the towns
which have incurred heavy debts and
are paying high rates of taxes for pub
lie works in the benefits of which all the
state is participating shall be helped in like
manner, and that the Furman bill with its
beggarly ten per cent of reimbursement in
creased to one hundred per cent, shall be
made law. All the islands of Grand Isle
county have now mainland connections. If
they desire other means of intercommuni-
cation the towns of that county should put
their hands in their pockets to provide them,
not in those of their more heavily burdened
and less highly-favored neighbors.

" No Step Backward"

Editor Of Watchmon ct is the duty OF
government" says the Hon. William K.
Gladstone, =" to make it easy for people to
do right, and difficult for them to do wrong"
The Ptkin high license bill antagonizes this
principle, and deserves the opposition it
will receive. 1t is a very good bill of its
kind, but very bad kind. 1t practically
annuls the will of the people, and IL is in
direct opposition to existing laws. Itsavors

them in about the same relation as the
bonds Of railroad to the company that
issues such bonds. The tolls will pay the
interest in part, II not entirely, and may
leave something to spare for repairs. How
stands the case with the towns that have
bonded to build railways? They have no
proprietorship in the roads. They derive
no income from them. The bonds, princi-
pal and interest, are a dead weight OF DEBT
upon the towns, Even the farmer that has
been taxed to help build the road, unless
he has friend at court has to fight the
company to recover pay for the cattle killed
by the carelessness of the railways. While
the roads may be carrying some OF his more
hight -favored fellow citizens of Grand
Isle or elsewhere on free passes, If he trav-
els he is pretty apt to have to pay full fare
both ways-and at pretty high rates, too,
and the butter and produce of his COMPETE
ors in other states is, or has been,
carried to his own markets at lower
rates than he is accorded over the
road his money has contributed to build.
COMPARATIVE TAXATION.
The average rate of all taxes in the island
county for the years 1886 and 1887 was only
eghty-tive cents. The average for the state
was S1,25, or nearly fifty per cent higher.
But in all the towns that have contributed
30 the building of railways the rate is from
two to three times the average in Grand
Isle county. The following are some in
stances with the railway debt of the towns
appended:

The Mary Howe Concert.

In spite of rain descending copiously, one
thousand people were attracted to the opera
house Thursday evening by the rising star
of Vermont maidens lyric fame. Extra
seats were placed for the occasion, and
every square foot of standing room was ex-
hausted. Baisdell's quintette began the
entertainment with an overture rendered in
Blaisdell's incompatible style. Morawski's
song, " 1t was not so to be-" followed and
brought the singer an encore. Wilder's
flute solo won him similar recognition
Bancroft bowed his acknowledgment of the
applause that greeted his songs " Star
Eyes " and 1.-THE White Rose" Expectant
listeners had their fingers on the fifth num-
Der of the programme, an air from La
Sonnambula," which heralded the entree of
Miss Howe. A burst of applause, with no
tinge of perfunctoriness in its hearty
spontaneity, greeted the lady's approach
to the footlights. Here as before every
other assemblage, she was the victor
from the moment the first glimpse was had
of her handsome and characterize features,
from the instant her first note was breathed.
II any withheld their allegiance till the
songstress had fairly won it, they surren-
dered long before the last strain was sung.
The enthusiastic encore attested the fervor
of the delight she had inspired and the COM
pleteness of her triumph. Who shall at
tempt to convey in cold type, or in the
warmest of breathing phrases, an adequate
idea of the Incompatible beauty of her exc
cution of the Echo Song? Or describe the
thrilling effect of notes clear as a ray of
purest light, thrown on the air with the
abandon of ease and power, a spray of
crystal tone shot to the very zenith of vocal
utterance-then, after an instant of listen
ing hush, the entire strain heard again
from afar, sweet and clear, and true as the
echo of mountain nook? For the raptur-
Gus encore that followed this marvellous
performance she sang The Last Rose of
Summer" and the familiar lyric was re-
ceived with a furore of delight. With
variations on The Carnival of Venice, " her
last number, came new revelations of the
wonderful quality of her voice and her
power to enthral an audience. Miss Howe
gracefully bowed her acknowledgment in
response to the storm of applause that
greeted her last performance, and sur
rendering to the imperative demands of her
hearers, reappeared and gave them the
melting numbers of the old familiar mel
ody, Home, Sweet Home" Vermont is
giving her brilliant daughter a royal well
come. Its people will watch her develop
ing career with the greatest interest. Time
and study will bring ripeness, depth and
power to a wonderful voice, and unspoiled
by applause, the capital will hope to hear
her again in the future and mark her growth
in the divine art.

For some time past there have been fire.
quent illusions in the daily papers to the
suffering and prvation which were said to
exist among the settlers in Ramsay county
in Northern Dakota. 1t now turns out
that the whole trouble originates with
colony of Russian Jews who settled two
years ago in the northeast part of the
county. They knew nothing of farming
hood, and preferred to get their living by
peddling and begging. They made an ex-
cuse for going to the county officials and
demanded support at the county expense,
which was denied them. They then sent
the statement of restitution broadcast over
the country, which has caused much annoy
ance to the thrifty, self-reiant settlers of
the county.
