selves pleasant homes Williamstown
offers exceptional advantages. No
healthier location can be found. Land
is cheap. Good water is abundant.
The inhabitants are wide-awake, in
telligent people The drives are un-
surpassed; the roads are smooth and
the scenery fine. The Gulf little
more than 2 miles south of the rail-
way station is one Of the natural GU
riosities of the state. 1t is a steep
sided ravine through lodges that rise
a hundred feet and more above the
highway for which there is barely
room beside small stream that runs
through the ravine. The Gulf is a
bout miles in length, through it and
down the stream to the White river is
a 20 mile drive than which there Is
none more pleasant In one of the
expansions of the Gulf is. few acres
of land upon which is a mineral
spring and a good hotel kept by Il. +.
Durham. This is becoming a resort
for people that love quiet and admire
romantic scenery.
Near the station is a good hotel.
There is good library. A fine sol
diers' monument is erected There
are no dives or saloons. Men who
wish to buy farms to till or who want
to buy a pleasant location for home
would do well to come to Williams
town. Those who have money to in
vest can find here an excellent oppor-
tunity to make safe investments. The
demand for granite is increasing very
rapidly; land can be bought very
cheaply and it is evident that those
who invest here now will reap great
profits. Let capitalists come and in
vestigate for themselves and they will
find that Williamstown offers oppor-
tunities not to be found in Western
mortgages. There are opportunities
for making sure profits upon invest
ments and there are no risks to be
taken.

freight ana passenger problems. Tas
Grand Trunk. Pennsylvania, and Balti-
more and Ohio systems control the.
steamship lines. and 1t is openly char ed
that all three of these systems cut the
ocean rate while keeping the inland
rate intact. Che result Of the European
traffic is exactly the same as if the rail
rate were cut. An illustration is cited of
where the Pennsylvania contracted last
week for the transportation of
n large consignment of Iowa corn des-
tired to Antwerp. Competing lines
claim that the Pennsylvania secured the
transportation by a cut rate and that
the cut will only appear in the ocean
rate. The fact remain, however, that
second class roads are getting ready to
do their share of the business if they do
it for nothing. The passenger situation
is even more complicated. 1t is claimed
by all Chicago roads that the New York
Central, the Pennsylvania, the West
Shore, and the Lehigh Valley are paying
$40 commission out of a S13 emigrant
rate from New York to Chicago. 1t is
also claimed that the Bee line is paying
a commission of SD from st. Louis to
Cleveland; that the Chesapeake and
Ohio is paying a 81. so commission on
New York business, and that numerous
other roads are violating the passenger
agreements.

TALK AT " ASHINGT0N.
New York Still the Bone Of conten-
tfon in the Formation Of a Cabinet.
THEYARE OUT OF THE RACE
pIntt and Miller, Are Hopeiessiy Dis
tnnced and Their Friends Arc Casting
About for a Compromise Candidate
The Latest Cabinet Slate.

WASHINGTON, March 1.-The notable
development of the day in the way OF
cabinet gossip is the entire disgruntle-
ment of the New York contingent. 1t
is loudly proclaimed that Platt and
Miller are out of the race. Early in the
evening VIM. HI. Seward, a son of the
famous Seward, began to take the po-
sition of a compromise candidate for
cabinet honors for the Empire state.
Platt and Miller men admitted their
~favorites were distanced and a maturity
settled to be In favor OF Seward. The
c%oncensus of opinion in the Arlington
hctel lobby at II o'clock indicates that
the cabinet would surely contain Blaine,
Wanamaker, Noble, Window and
Palmer. Friends of Governor Rusk have
been making strong efforts in his behalf,
but Sena,o Paiiner's position is looked
on as too secure for dislodgement. The
name of Whitelaw Reid was vaguely
suggested as a cop to New York, but the
Republican editor was not held in real
high favor by the professional politi-
clans.
AT 1880 Senators Spooner and Saw
yer entered the hotel Office, and were
Immediately shown to Ger. Harrison's
parlor. The call vas looked on as sig
nificant for Governor Rusk. The state.
ment that Ex-Secretary Window had
admitted that he had accepted a port
folio, is denied.

LONDON, March 1.-The grave troubles
that threaten the government, owing to

among the ranks of the Tories, and the
question of the first Importance is how
to save themselves from total defeat.
The Tories will concentrate all their

one must be sacr ificed, and that one

ridiculous situation upon them. 1t APP
pears, according to the authority of one
near the government, that Lord Sails

others of the cabinet were opposed to the
special commission being formed
when it was asked for at first in the
commons, but the attorney general in
sisted upon its being granted, 80 con-
fident was he that The Times would be
able to prove Its charges. 1t Is con-
tidently asserted that Sir Richard Web
ster's resignation will be accepted, and
that he will be made the scapegoat in
order to g V the ministry from the
charge of completely in a conspiracy to
ruin Mr.. Parnell. made by Sir William
Harcourt and others.
The Parnellite counsel insist upon the
legality of proceeding against The
Times after tho commission has finished
its work, and will bring suit for a large
sum for damages. A writ will be OBJ
tanned before the commission to make
the ground for proceedings sure, and
the suit will be carried to the bitter end
against The Times.

as soon as the requisite papers are COM
pleted.
