WHAT NOT TO Do.

The leading measure upon which the
legislature is to act at this session is the
educational bill. The most importan,
part of that bill is that providing fol
county supervisors. Now if the bill is
to pass and the law is to be success in
practice, these supervisors must be men
of ability, industry and integrity. But
such men are scarce and command good
salaries in any profession or work.
The thing for our legislators not to do
then, is to cnt down the salaries of these
men below the figures fixed in the bill
If the salaries are reduced we shall get
cheap men as supervisors, and cheap.
poor, practically worthless common
schools will follow as natural result.

A STRONG TESTIMONIAL.
BURLINGTON, VT, Sept. I.

BURLINGTON, VT, Sept. Z, 1888.
Mr.. NJ. O. SNOW, State Agent Perkins
Wind Mill Co., Brandon, Vt.
Dear Sir -
1t is with pleasure that we write
you of the very satisfactory working of
the Perkins wind mill that you erected at
our summer campat Cedar Beach in Char
lotte year ago. 1t more than fulfills
our expectations. Under unfayorabe
circumstances for wind, with the 5000
gallon tank. it more than supplies every
cottage on the grounds, IL in number,
with an abundance of fresh water. The
14-foot wheel, erected on 6l-foot tower,
draws and forces the water through an
inch and half main, 1925 feet laterally
into the tank, which is placed on the high
est point, 80 feet above the lake. We
spent considerable time in looking into
the merits of the various mills and have
had no reason to regret selecting the
Perkins in preference to all others. We
wish to add word of praise, too, for the
very thorough and faithful manner in
which you have performed the necessary
work.
Very truly yours,
w. b. GATES,
for the Cedar Beach association.

A SIGNIFICANT LETTER.

The political sensation of the week is
the following letter which the New York
Herald printed in prominent position in
its issue of Monday:
For our Personal Information.
| am hurrying through the western
counties, for | am sick of this eternal
button-holing and cOrner-grocery tariff
discussion. You can make up your mind
that, unless some extraordinary change
occurs between now and November 6,
Harrison will go down to High Bridge
with something like 10000 plurality. If
New York city can overcome that Cleve
land is all right; if not he will have to
pack up and come back to Buffalo. You
can get no idea in your present surround
ings of the situation in the country. The
Republicans are making fierce, intelli-
gent and so far successful fight. 1t was
mistake for Cleveland to raise the tariff
issue. | can see that now for the first
time. The surface argument is, as you
know, all in favor of the Republicans,
and that is the argument that catches the
countrymen. There are large defections
of lifelong Democrats among the farm
ers everywhere have been. In ROches-
ter the men in control of the Democratic
organization will knife Cleveland sure.
They are very bitter against him, and In
private make no bones of it. In Steuben
county the Democrats are all smashed
up. Cleveland's appointees are lot of
milk and water ackanapes, who let their
enemies scoop everything. The only no.
table exception is Jim Hanlon, internal
revenue collector, who lives in Medina
and is making the most extraordinary
fight in Orleans county | have yet come
across. He's daisv. The Democrats i'm
Niagara county are saving their money
to use ON election day. God bless them !!
A HERALD CORRESPONDENT.
Buffalo, N. Y, Oct. l3, 1888.
The Democrats are trying hard to ex-
plain why the Herald, a strong partisan
of Mr.. Cleveland, should allow its cor
respondents communication to appear.
The true reason seems to be that the Her
aid, like all good newspapers, is more de-
sirous of keeping its readers informed of
the facts than of misleading them.
1t is now less than three weeks to cleo
ton. Meantime we of Vermont can
watch with great satisfaction the pro-
gress of the war, because it is almost
certain in the light of the above and sim
liar indications that the outcome of the
voting will be the choice of the men
whom a great majority of Vermonters
heartily support-IIarrison and Morton.

A FAIR COMPANY.

| As already noted In these columns

House blew down during o recent
storm of wind. The u. s. Wind.
Engine & Pump Co. OF Batavia, Ill.
Mere told OF the wrecked mill and are
replacing 1t, with fairness bordering
upon generosity. Here 10 o quotation
from the Company's letter answering
tie one written by Mr.. House:
1--WE have written TO Mr.. Halves,
our northwestern agent, In reference
to the matter, suggesting that he
have mill shipped you at once and
send man to set 1t up. We requested
Mr.. Halves to have Ills man investi-
gate regarding the cause Of damage,
and learn from you what In your
Judgment we should do to make the
matter OF settlement satisfactory.
We desire to be fair and just with
you In this matter and we trust you
will feel disposed to favor as all you
cam
/. Mr.. Halves was in town one week
ago to-day and went to Mr.. Houses
farm and Investigated. Although
the tower was not properly anchored
and probably gave way first, thus
making the wreck Of the mill certain,
Mr.. Halves was not disposed to take
advantage of this probable cause of
damage for which his company was
in no sense to blame, but at once
gave Mr.. House q new mill. By this
action, the U. s. Wind, Engine &
Pump Co. has shown itself to be an
excellent one with which to deal.
Machinery sent out by them Is war
ranted and this Instance shows that
their warrant amounts to something.
