AS a csudi date before the people,

STATE POLITICS.

The Ludlow Tribune makes an
excellent point in the following {:
"The Lieutenant Governorship is
too often sop to some unsuccess-
full aspirant to the first honors who
has strong following, and who is
thus kept from kicking over the
traces or in other manner embarrass.
ing the machine Qualification for
the position he may be called upon
to fill has about as much to do with
the choice for Lieutenant. Governor
as has the choice of the fence view
err; therefore, the practice of direct
promotion is a pernicious one;
though it does not follow that many
men holding the second place may
not be mental superior to the man
above him, The chances are against
it, however"
Essex County herald. [volume] (Guildhall, Vt.) 1873-1964, 1889-10-04

could be occupied. Bat the most
significant feature of the case, as it
appears to us, is the fact that the
owners Of these lands are not only
ready to sell them at these figures,
but are also ready to sell them con
time" and, moreover, to furnish the
new corners with additional ma
terial, aid in cattle, money, etc.
This action indicates that the con-
dition of affairs in Vermont has not
been overstated by the commission
er, and also that the people of the
State stand ready to second the
efforts of those who are striving to
solve the problem of Vermont's
future.
Another noteworthy feature of
this new situation, for it must be
admitted that the situation is ma
terially changed, is that private
individuals are acting in the matter
without regard, if we rightly under
stand the case, to the attitude of
the State. In other words some of
the people of Windsor and Wind
ham counties propose to try this
experiment of Swedish immigration
themselves, and stand ready to as
sumo all the responsibility. 49,
The Importance of this movement
to the State and people of the State
cannot be rightly estimated until
the experiment has been tried. We
regard it, however, with great
hopefulness and trust that the flu
ture events will give us no cause to
regret that our doors have been
Opened to the Swedes.
We have already called attention
to the value of the work already
done by the commission, as means
of calling attention of the country
to the advantages offered by YER
mont to those who desire good
homes at low rates. Mr.. Valentine
informs us that every mail brings
to him numerous letters from native
Vermonters living in other states,
, and from natives of the other New
England States abroad who desire
to return to New England, making
earnest inquiry as to the conditions
under which they can do SO, and in
regard to the location and surround
ings of the cheap farms of Vermont.
We suggest the feasibility and
wisdom of offering to old New
Englanders who may desire to re-
turn hither some such inducements
as are offered the Swedes. We can
readily understand the difficulties
in the way of bringing land owner
in Vermont into communication
with a single individual in the
West, neither of them known to the
other, while in the case Of the Swed-
ish immigrants one man stands in a
measure responsible for colony;
but while engaged in the solution
of knotty problems this one rightly
demands consideration because it
brings us into close relation with
those of our own kith and kin, and
we believe it may be solved. New
England desires first of all the re-
turn of her own children. 1t il
because they have turned theil
backs upon the old farms that the
doors are opening to the children Of
another country. Meanwhile better
days for the Green Mountain State
are at hand.

There is 2 new chapter in the his
tory of the development of Com
missioner Valentines Swedish i'm
migration scheme. This movement
which has been so much talked
about and to some extent ridiculed
is materialiEing much more rapidly
than the commissioner himself
imagined possible three months ago.
In short, Mr. Valentine has already
completed arrangements in gen.
eral way for the establishment of
two and perhaps three colonies of
Swedish immigrants in Vermont,
with the reasonable probability that
the coloBist will be here within a
year. So far from finding it diff.

An esteemed contemporary is
trying, by means of circulars ad-
dressed to prominent men, to find
out whether, as rule, lieutenant
governors should be promoted to
the governorship. 1t is hard to see
why there should be any rule about
it. If the lieutenant-governor is
the best of several men who want
the governorship, there can be no
harm in giving it to him; but it
would be folly to say that every
man who can get himself made
acknowledgement must be govern
or also. There is no necessary con-
nection between one Office and the
other and none ought to be allowed
to grow.-Middlebury Register.

We have been favored with a
copy of a letter recently sent out
by the Vermont Waterman to lead
ing Republicans throughout the
State, soliciting their views upon
the question of promoting lieuten'
ant governors to governors. 1t will
be remembered that this question
was brought up in .the. Republican
State convention in 1886, and that
Cox Fuller secured the nomination
for lieutenant. governor virtually
upon the strength of the pledge
made in his behalf by Col. Hooker
that he (Fuller) would not be can
dldate for governor in 1885. 1t was
evident that the non.promotion rule
then established by very liberal con-
sent met with the hearty approval
of large majority of Republicans
of the State, and we believe there
has been no material change since
in public sentiment on the question.
Probably no doubt would be Great
ed Oh the subject now, but for the
efforts made in certain quarter to
secure reversal of the policy def
nitely established in 1886, for the
especial benefit of our lieutenant
governor, who, it. is currently re-
ported, desires. promotion to the
governorship. We are of the opin'
ion, however, that the Republicans
of the State will insist that the non
promotion rule be maintained next
year; and certainly there seems no
good reason why the present lieu
tenant-governor should be better
treated in this respect than his pre-
decessor was. They do not believe
the restoration of the practice which
prevailed some years previous to
1856, in the selection of candidates
for the gubernatorial succession, is
consistent with the best political
methods. .-.s
1t does not follow that because a
man is qualified to make an accepta
Bile acknowledgement, he is like
wise we'll fitted for the higher place,
and it is only fair that the people
should be left perfectly free to Sc
lect the best man for governor al
the proper time, which they canno
we'll do if the acknowledgement il

governorship two years in advance
1t is at least unfair that. any MAJ
should seek to occupy the highes
State offices for four years in success
sion, unless his party, a0ith substantial
unaninity, demands his promotion
Therefore, it seems to us that nothing
but pre~eminent fitness of the lieuten
ant-governor for the Office ex-governor
or his eminent public services, would
justify a departure in any case from
the just rule adopted in 1SS6.-Spring

Miners Strike for an Advance.

PUyxsUrAwANEY, Pa, Sept. Eft
teen hundred miners are on a strike at
the Watson and Adrian mines for an in
crease in wages. Yesterday the COM
pany brought 800 men from Buffalo,
Rochester and Bradford. After arriv1
ing the men refused to go to work, be-
lieving the miners justified in the stand
they have taken. Most of the men re-
turned to their various homes today
The company claims to have 400 negro
miners on the way here from their
minis in West Virginia. Everything is
quiet today, but trouble is expected to-
morrow. At s o'clock last night a crowd
of Italians stopped at the residence OF
John w. Brown and asked for a drink
Of water. An alteration ensued and
two shots were fred into the crowd, one
bullet hitting Jacob Jacosta in the right
eye, killing him instantly. Brown
guarded his residence all night and gave
himself up to the authorities this morn
ing. The Italians are much excited
over the shooting.

The Strike Settled.

LONDON, Sept. IA conference was
held today between Cardinal Manning.
on behalf Of the striking dock laborers.
and the directors of the dock COM
panies. The cardinal submitted to the
directors definite proposals from the
strikers for the settlement Of the wage
question, which he thinks Will be ac-
cepted.
The joint committee appointed to o n
alder the proposals Of the strikers has
agreed that the wages demanded by the
dock laborers shall be conceded, the ad-
vance 10 take place November 4. The
lord mayor at the conference with the
directors Of the dock companies today
gave assurance that the men were now
ready 70 resume work. on Monday.
The Mansion house committee an
nounces that the dock directors and
men have practically agreed, and as
soon as other interests have been ar
ranged, all the men will resume work
on the understanding that the deferred
concessions be granted in November.
In view of the approaching end Of the
dock laborers' strike, the lighter men
are seeking TO resume work. The
lighter men have submitted to the mas
ter a proposal for a settlement of their
dispute. The subscription received to-
day from Australia for the strikers
fund amounted to a. 23.

night and reports that the country I'M
the vicinity of the town Of Georgetown
is one mass CT flames. The fire was
started by tramps in Georgetown fats.
which were covered with a tall dry
grass. People from Georgetown, the
Red Lion mine, Cable and Southern
Cross districts are taking turns at fight
ing the fire, but are unable TO check its
rapid progress. The fire ran from the
tall grass of the fats into the thickly
tim bere section between Georgetown
and Southern Cross, and as there is cons
siderable valuable property in the vicin-
ity of the latter place, a desperate effort
is being made to stay the progress OF
the flames. At Cable not much danger
is anticipated, as considerable timber
has been cut from the immediate vicin-
ity of the town.

question came &c a head yesterday
when the commissioner Of pensions was
suspended pending an investigation of

he cannot countenance Commissioner
Tanner in Office. Secretary Noble dis
cussed the matter with the president
Saturday and again on Monday. 1t was
Monday, it is said, that the determine
ton TO suspend Commissioner Tanner
was reached. Both Secretary Noble
and Commissioner Tanner refuse
to make any statements for
publication, but a statement
is made with some show Of
authority that Secretary Noble noti-
fed Mr.. Tanner of his suspension from
Office pending the investigation, and
that Commissioner Tanner refused to
accept the order of the secretary; that
Deputy Commissioner Smith IA then
called in and formally instructed to
take charge of the pension bureau; that
when this order was shown Commits
sioner Tanner, he then left the office
and vent to his home in Georgetown.
He was much agitated and his nerves
