Robert Treat Paine writes as follows
to the Boston Herald Why will you
not follow up your excellent and timely
words to-day on "Buying up the Views: ::
Are there not some very important prac-
tical definite results to be reached? The
MiddleseX Fells tell the whole story.
| write these words under the shadow
of Prospect Hill in Waltham. Who
owns Mt. Tom. Mt. Holyoke, Mt. Wach-
uset: Who ought to own the tops. at
least, of mountains, the lakes, the rare
gems of scenery, if not the whole people !:
How long can we go on in supine neg
ligence and allow the glories of nature
to be absorbed by private enterprise, cut
up into lots, built upon with private
houses and so lost to the public, to the
whole people: Surely now, before it Is
too late, or too costly, a vigorous, or
ganized effort should be made to secure
for the perpetual and free enjoyment of
the people. all the glorious scenery in
our commonwealth. Was not park act
passed half dozen years ago: Should
not the State be more than passive.
Why not appropriate 81 100000, to be
expended with the sanction of the
governor and council, by some fit State
board, in securing, say, a dozen mount
aims or lakes or other scenes of great nat
ural beauty? Such step would only be
a beginning, and after a few years ex-
perence would be followed with univer-
sal approval by bolder action. Cities
and towns also need to be aroused to the
wisdom of similar action This is not
merely duty which they owe to the
less favored citizens, but it would rebound
to the reputation of the community and be
a source of pleasure and pride and health
to all alike, rich as well as poor. Nor
need all the outlay be wholly without

IhE LATEST COMBINE.

There is good ground for believing that
the friends of Lieut.-Gov. Woodbury. and
Franklin Fairbanks of st. Johnsbury
have formed combine" the object of
which is to elevate the former to the gov
ernorship next year and at the same time
make the latter lieutenant-governor But
the adherents of the martial makers of
pipe organs of peace at Brattleboro say
they are not going to have that "prece-
dent" broken in the case of Mr.. Fuller,
reestablshed. Hence the prospect is ex-
cellent for battle Of no mean proper
tions between the followers of the saints
at st. Johnsbury and the Brattleboro
armigerents.
While the field of combat is preparing,
the st. Johnsbury forces should draw up
a diagram of that genealogy, in order to
assist in making it clear to the convention
just how their candidate is related to each
of his distinguished ancestors. Failure
to do this in 1886 was fatal to his chances.

tents, smoke the pipe of peace with the
stalwarts, mug the mugwumps, bust the
boom of Batchelder and wallop the wall
for Woodbury.. Something must be done,
and that right speedily. 1t is only
twelve months before election day. the
moon is already full and its last quarter
is nearly spent. In the stirring days
close at hand when the farmer is bending
every effort to secure the last load of hay
in time to bank up his house for winter,
the willy candidate should get out his
platform, tuck his pants in his boots and
settle himself for an interview with the
reporter of the only great and greatest
paper in the State. He must avow his
allegiance to prohibition, and assert
with equal gravity and sincerity that he
was born with high license and will die
of it If not stricken with a more fatal
disease. He should be an ardent sup
porter of the new school law; and when
he strikes Middlebury he can, with great
propriety, condemn the State superinten-
dent; in Rutland he will not forget to
criticise the foolish questions put by the
various supervisors in their examinations
of teachers. He will be an earnest advo-
cate of the importation of Swedes and
Kentucky colonels; but he must cry
from the house-tops that the Chinese
must go. He also will advise the pub
fishers of Vermont to club their paper
with the 'Deadwood Deadbeat" at 81 25
for four years and six months, and be
prepared to convince publisher who
kicks that there is money in the scheme ;
but the one thing needed is to be right
upon the insane asylum question. The
votes of those who are in and most of
those who are out are of supreme impor-
tance. Caledonia county is included in
one of these classes, probably the latter,
as her interests were counted out by the
commission. In st. Johnsbury the we'll
intentoned candidate will take off his
hat when passing the office of the Gale
donian and Republican and remark, with
no uncertain sound, "Give us liberty or
the insane asylum" In Montpelier and
Waterbury he will pitch his tune to quite
a different key. The Argus, the Watch
man and the G. V. governor of Ver-
mont must be made to pull together,
They are not three of kind; but they
make a good hand when it comes to To-
eating an insane asylum.
All these things the successful candi-
date must do. Once accomplished, he
stands pretty even chance of getting
left after all.

he PASSENGER STATION BURNED.

An alarm of fire was sounded a few
minutes before o'clock last Saturday
afternoon. The cause of it was the dis
covery of fire in the attic of the passen-
ger station. An extra train had passed
Is minutes previous, and the supposition
is that sparks from the engine got into
the building somehow, probably through
the dormer windows. At any rate, a
lively blaze had sprung up when the en-
ployees about the station found it..
Luckily, Mr.. Bruya, Mr.. Marshal's head
man, and others of the hands were there,
and in short time they had almost
everything of value out of the building
and in place of safety. a few old ac-
count books and papers, which had been
stored in the attic, could not be reached
and were lost. The firemen responded
with their usual promptitude. The
steamer was drawn to the bank of the
creek near the ice house and soon was
throwing a good stream, and later an
other line of hose was run and used.
As the old shell was all afire, efforts
were directed mainly to saving Mr..
Judd's shop and the woodshed, for if
the latter had gone the bridge could
hardly have been saved. Neither the
shop nor the shed suffered in the least,
although the fire was a hot one. The
ruins of the station burned all night, and
Sunday morning there was nothing but
mass of blackened and smouldering
ruins.
Whether there was any insurance on
the structure we are unable to ascertain.
1t was built in 1851. The freight depot,
which stood across the track from it.,
was burned IS years ago, and then
the new freight depot was built at the
other end of the town. The burned
station was not valuable building and
its loss is not greatly mourned.
Station Agent Marshall and his men
were compelled to put in a hard days
work on Sunday, but by Monday morning
had things in shape so as to do business
at the freight depot with fair degree of
comfort to themselves and the patrons of
the road. Tuesday a platform was built
on the west side of the main track op-
posite the freight station, and all passen-
ger trains now stop there.
Until further notice the express busi-
nes and telegraphing will be done from
Mr.. Marshall's store. 1t is understood
that Mr.. Howard's house, just west of
the freight depot, has been rented to
the railroad and, if that is the case, it is
not likely that new station will be
erected this fall. However, no one here
possesses definite information on that
point. ~

IHE POIAIO CROP.

Those farmers who thought their po-
tatoes were rotting and began to dig
them did not find their condition so bad
as they anticipated. Even on low lands
along the streams the tubers are fairly
good in most cases. Reports of the con-
dition of the crop throughout the country
have been carefully gathered and COM
piled by Boston produce dealers. 1t ap-
pears that while in Vermont the crop
is light and New York has only two
thirds crop, there is heavy crop in the
Western States and "big' crops in the
Provinces and lower Maine. Local buy
ers do not think prices will rule ex-
ceptionally high and express the opinion
that 40 cents bushel is likely to be the
highest figure during the fall.

NOTE AND COMMENT.

President Whitman of the National as
socation of Wool Manufacturers has
called an extraordinary meeting of the
organization at Boston, Sept. IL, to con-
slider the tariff and its relations to the
present state of the wool trade.
Commissioners appointed by the gov
ernor of Illinois to investigate the labor
troubles in the coal mines find that the
operators can't live on the wages paid ;
but they learn, also, that the conditions
are such that the mine owners are un-
able to pay higher wages and get their
money back.
The bungling fashion in which one of
the four murderers hanged at New York
last week was killed will go far toward
reconciling people to death by electricity.
The controversy in New York over this
method of execution is beginning to ap-
pear in its true light. Opposition to it
is promoted by certain electric light
companies, who naturally object to this
use of what they wish the public to be-
lieve is "harmless" current.
The Behring sea controversy is likely
to come to a speedy settlement, which
will be brought about automatically.
The only point at issue is, whether Beh-
ring sea is ''closed" sea according to
the law of nations. If it is, then British
sealers must keep out of it; if not, they
have the same rights there as United
States sealers. Opinion on the main
question is divided. Senator Frye of
Maine, for instance, has no doubt about
its being closed sea, while so able a
journal as the Portland Oregonian, is
equally positive that it is not a closed
sea.
The Concord On. H.. Monitor is not
far wrong when it says; The fact may
as well be recognized first as last, that
liquor selling is not conducive to develop
ing law-abiding sentiment among the
dealers in any community, whether IL
cense or prohibition be the law of the
State. Liquor is sold for the profit there
is in the business, and the dealers will
take great risks for the sake of profits
just as quickly under license as under
prohibition laws. High license has not
produced millennium of temperance in
any State where 1t has been tried, nor
will it while there is money to be made
by selling liquor"
