BRADFORD, VT. FRIDAY, MAR. 8. 1889.

BRADFORD, VT. FRIDAY, MAR. 3. 1889.
President Harrison's inaugural adj
dress is SO admirable in every way that
there is great temptation to quote from
it very largely and leave it to speak
for itself. 1t may well claim a place
among the very best of state papers.
It is moderate but firm in its tone and
rich in suggestion. All of the utter
ances of Gen. Harrison since his cleo
ton to the chief magistracy have been
remarkable for their felicity of ex-
preston. They have been such as to
lead us to expect broad and noble
presentation of the questions that are
of the most consequence to the great
nation over which he is called to pre-
side. and we have reason to be abun-
dainty gratified by his first official ut
terance. The protective policy so gen.
orally approved by the party which has
elected Gen. Harrison to the presiden-
CIV is outlined in brief but in so plain a
manner that every young school boy
could comprehend the principle which
actuates such policy. He mentions
the early efforts put forth for the fur
therance of American manufactures
and commercial industry which were
SO necessary after we had thrown off
the English control and then refers to
the revival of this patriotic interest,
admirably summing it up by the ex-
preston, "It is not departure but q
return that we have witnessed"
Nothing could be better expressed
than this in regard to the foreign i'm
migration that has come to be such
source of anxiety to every thoughtful
American, eve should not cease to be
hospitable to immigration, but we
should cease to be careless as to the
character of it," President Harrison's
brief discussion of our foreign rela-
tons, the appointments to Office, civil
service reform and the matter of cleo
lions can be commended most heartily
as distinguished by great breadth of
ideas and as showing that he has pom
dered all these subjects, and has an
honest purpose to do all in his power
for the best good of the nation.
Self control and common sense are
the great characteristics most dear to
the American. people and President
Harrison seems to possess these in
large measure. There is no cant or
hypocracy about him, but he is sim
cerely in earnest to promote honest
government and to give to the people
the best fruits of fair administration
of national affairs. As he has well
said, "God has placed upon our head
diadem, and has laid at our feet pow
er and wealth beyond definition or cal
culation. But we must not forget
that we take these gifts upon the con-
dition that Justice and mercy shall
hold the sway of power, and that the
reward of hope shall be free to all the
people. l do not mistrust the future.
Dangers have been in frequent ambush
along our path, but we have uncovered
and vanquished them all. Passion has
8 wept some of our communities, but
only to give us a new demonstration
that the great body of our people are
stable, patriotic and law-abidiug."

Cheap Fertilizers.

The following correspondence rela-

Bradford, VT, Feb. 18th, 1889.
Prof. W. w. Cook, Burlington,
Dear SSr:-I have before me a
pamphlet issued by the Vermont
Chemical Fertilizer Company of Ver-
gennes, vt. l note on page AZ the fol-
lowing: "All phosphate and bone
fertilizers are sold at from $35. 90 to
$4,000 per ton, while Halls Coral Fer
tilizer is sold at $15 per ton and is ex-
celled by none"
Is it true that this is as good as the
leading standard fertilizers that are on
the market at this time, say Bradley's
"X II, Quinnipiac, etc.? Will you be
SO kind as to tell me exactly what this
"Coral Fertilizer" is made of or from.
Yours truly,

HI. A. WNsHIP, Bradford, vt.
Dear SW:-Your favor of Feb. 18th
received asking concerning the Coral
Fertilizer manufactured by the Ver-
mont Fertilizer Chemical Company.
This fertilizer, according to the analy-
sis that we made of it a few days ago,
is composed of nothing but ground
lime stone rock, and you certainly
ought to know by this time how much
good it would do on the land in your
vicinity to scatter lime on the surface.
Yours truly, ----s
W. W. COOKE.

counts with the undersigned will please

We think Mr.. John Peckett's presen-
tation of the claims of the village for a
sidewalk and to exempt the firemen
from their tax, must have impressed
his townsmen as very reasonable and
discriminating request. His plea was
put in a very plain practical manner
that as fact the village had far larger
claims upon the general taxes than in
justice to itself it has ever received.
The favorable vote illustrates well
how good judgment and generous
spirit well put, makes its way with the
good sense of the people. Mr.. Peck
EFT certainly did himself and his towns
men credit. CITIZEN,

Mr.. V j. Shimek, 933 North Broad
way, Baltimore, and three other Bohe-
miaDs visited Bohemia Manor on Tues
day. They say that the National Museum
of Prague is very anxious to procure
history Of the lie Of Augustine Hermen,
the founder Of the manor. The marble
slab which marked Hermen's grave Is
particularly desired by the admiuistra'ion
Of the museum, and II possessed by them
would be o venerated relic. This slab,
according to Johnston's History OF Cecil
County, is of oolite, and is three feet
wide and seven feet long. 1t was broken
into three pieces, which have been ce-
mented together and bolted to the side Of
the manor mansion.
1t was made in London during Her
mems liittime, and Inscribed with his
name and the date of the founding oil the
Bohemia Manor-1661. The property
belongs to Mrs. h. II. Bayard, 907 Cathe-
dral street, Baltimore, who lie now travel
ing in Europe She is descendant of
Hermen. Mr.. skimek has written to
United States Consul Carl Jonas, at
Prague, telling him to edvise the Ma
tlonal Museum management TO arrange
for an interview with Mrs. Bayard, and
that she may consent TO part with the
slab.
Hermen's grave has never been desig-
mated with a fitting tombstone and there
ia a disposition on the part of the leading
Bohemians of Baltimore to raise fund
and have erected over his sepulchere a
handsome monument. Subscriptions
will be asked from the Behemians oi

ful, then an appeal will be made to the
Bohemisns OF the whole country. A Mrs.
