aggregating more than $4,000 acres
of land exclusive Of those sequestered
TO public, pious and other uses.
There are a few families in Averill
and Ferdinand. All the rest are
unoccupled except by lumbermen.
All the surrounding towns have
large tracts of "wild" lands lying
contiguous to these unorganized
towns and cores; so that we may
feel safe in making the assertion
that there are in Essex County more
than $4,000 acres Of unoccupied,
contiguous lands, which now are,
or soon will be, open for settlement.
Good lands; lands that will max e
good productive farms; we'll water
ed; and with timber sufficient for
home consumption; wanting moth.
ing but the energy, the bone and
muscle to clear them up. We can,
therefore, in Essex Sounty furnish
lands in abundance to settle not
alone fifty but five hundred or one
thousand Swedish families. Not on
worn out mountain farms with ex.
hausted soil, but on new lands with
deep rich soil.
"BHt," asks one, eff your Essex
County lands are good for anything
why haven't they been settled and
cleared up?"
Well, this is why: Something
like half century or more ago cap.
italists like the Summers, the Chan
dlers, the Beatties, Richardson and
others bought up and have held for
numbering purposes, or for an in
crease in value, large tracts Of land.
The Summers bought the whole of
Lewis; the Chambers had large
holdings in Norton, Averill and
oTter towns; others have held the
balance. And these men would not
sell lands to be cleared even after
the lumber had been cut off for fear
Of taxes being increased. This pol

1t is interesting to note that the
subject of alien labor is Just now
interesting our British brethren as
well as ourselves. Two years ago
the London board of trade published
a memorandum upon the subject,
setting forth the facts, and Geclar-
ing that the immigration Of foreign
workmen had a direct effect IN
lowering wages in England. This
led TO the appointment Of parla-
mentary committee to consider the
subject, which has just made it's re-
port. In this document it is recon-
mended that an annual census be
taken of aliens arriving and settling
in Great Britain; and that legisla-
tive steps should be taken to check
labor immigration, in view of the
extreme pressure of existence among
the poor, and the direct tendency
of such immigration to still further
lower the already low scale of
wages prevailing there.

THOSE -FOUR SECTIONS"
what Essex County can snOw.-It
beats them all.

In his circular letter to listers
Commissioner Valentine announces
that there are four sections of lands
in Vermont that would meet all the
requirements of 5OSwedish families.
The Burlington Free Press under
takes to give the location, boupda'
ries, etc, of these "four sections"
though with a modesty peculiarly
its own it does credit its knowl-
edge Of the geography of Vermont
to the Bennington Banner. We
will notice only the fourth section,
described elsewhere in the article
above alluded to. This section con-
tains more than half million acres
in four counties, all Of which the
poor Swede might have to wander
over to find the "fSao thousand acres
Of unOccapjed lands" the Free Press
says are there, and upon which he
could settle. Such boundary as
that given by the Free Press might
pass before a CjoI Service Board,
but it would be surely marked zero
in school examination. We sin.
eerely hope that Bro. Benedict will
soon get. a more accurate idea of
this Northeastern corner of YER
mont than he now appears to have.
Let us see what Essex County
alone can do for the Swede. There
are in this county three unorganized
townships and three large cores of
land, IN which there are probably
all told not more than fifteen or
twenty families They are
