Rich Strikes in Mines.

Some of the most astonishing results
have come from some of these pros
poets. Ex-senator Tabor Che of the
''silk nightgown' notoriety) ''grub-
staked" two shoemakers with $14,
from which his start in fortune was
made. The shoemakers grew tired
of climbing the mountains, and began
blindly to dig at one of their resting
places. The result was the discovery
of the Little Pittsburg mine at the
depth of eighteen feet. One shoe
maker sold out for $75, 900 and his
companion for 100000. Tabor held
on and pocketed a cool $3, 100000
as his share of the deal. "Tabor fell
up against fortune and couldn't help
it, said one of his friends. ETake
the Chicken Bill property for exam
pie. Bill stole ore from the Little
Pittsburg and threw it into his shaft
until he thought he had enough on
hand to catch a sucker. He persuaded
Tabor to visit the hole, but the old
rope looked so rotten that the visitor
didn't dare trust his weight in the
bucket. EWell, Bill, said Tabor,
cpl give you S15, 200 for your prop
erty and trust to luck to get some
thing out of it, The offer was snap
ped up, and Tabor ordered new hoist
ing apparatus to be placed in position
and work to be commenced. Chick
en- Bills trick was soon discovered,
bat Tabor said: "Go on down, bows,
and make q mine of it anyhow" At
the depth of % feet further down the
vein was struck and the Chrysolite
mine was opened. One chunk of
pure gold sold for $3.50, and several
millions soon rolled in a golden
stream into Mr.. Tabor's pockets. A
lucky tenderfoot came ont here from

party, is here as elsewhere, high
license party. Other men, democrats
by traditional influences, are troubled
and CALLED by the course of democrat
ic leaders; others feel that the old
party in which their fathers believed
has drifted away from its former moor
ings and, are uneasy and troubled.
We are unable to see why such men
do not leave the party as others are
leaving it, because it does not repre-
sent their opinions or labor for their
interests.
Party traditions may be strong and
party shackles powerful, but true
manhood ought not to be crushed by
these influences. Politics are busi-
ness as we'll as moral forces and
man whose business cannot be cared
for, and whose temperance and moral
sentiments cannot be represented in
one party ought to look somewhere
else

The energetic resistance which MIR.
Baird the Scotchman who owns lob
ster factories on the Newfoundland
coast, has made to the arbitrary pro-
cedures of Sir Baldwin Walker, the
Commander of the British squadron,
has resulted in a new and interesting
situation. The British Commander
ordered the factories closed. Mr..
Baird refused to comply. Sir Bald
win thereupon took forcible posses
sion of the factories, turned out en-
ployes and placed armed marines in
charge. Mr.. Baird then obtained a
writ against Sir Baldwin for illegal
trespas, and it was assumed as mat
rer of course that there would be no
hesitancy on Sir Baldwin's part as to
meeting the legal issue. When the
naval commander, however, was re-
quested to name legal represented
who would accept service in his be-
half, he replied that he expected i'm
perlal instructions by the next mail
regarding compensation for the loss
es and expenses incurred by Mr..
Baird.
This is interpreted as an admis-
sion that the action of the Govern
ment in closing the factories cannot
be defended in a court Of law. The
reason for this conclusion is the un-
expected discovery that the Act of
Parliment passed during the reign of
George the Third, to give effect to
the treaty of 1888, was inadvertent-
ly repealed many years ago, and has
never been re-enacted. This act
empowered naval and military officers
to pull down buildings, to remove
inhabitants, arrest industries, etc., If
necessary for due enforcement of the
treaty. This act having been re-
pealed, there is no legal warrant for
the proceedings of Sir Baldwin Walk
er, and the English Government finds
itself in the anomalous position of
having a distasteful treaty on its
hands, without the legislation neces-
sary for its enforcement. AS Lord
Salibury has explicitly denied to the
French the right of enforcing on
their own account the rights which
they claim, and as the representatives
of the British Government cannot un-
dertake the work of enforcement
without laying themselves open to
legal proceedings, the situation is a
peculiar one, and more satisfactory
to tn islanders than to any of the 9th
er parties concerned.

That Duty On Tin Plate.

The report that a fund of a mill
ion of dollars is available, should it
be needed, for the tin plate tariff in
the Mckinley bill, contains nothing
of improbability in it, since those
who are interested in preventing the
United States from engaging in that
industry can certainly afford to pay
we'll in order to succeed. The busi-
ness is one of great magnitude. Dur
the year 1889, the United States i'm
ported 743, ,147 $40 los. of this plate,
which at an average valuation of six
cents pound means over forty mill
ion dollars paid to England in one
wear for this article alone. Forty
million dollars year income from
the one article No wonder England
wants to prevent the building up of
this industry in the United States.
No wonder great sums of money are
easily raised to help to defeat this
provision of the tariff bill. The tin
plate importers and the English man
ufacturers can afford to spend a good
deal of money to retain control OF
the great monopoly. They claim
that there are no tin mines in this
country of sufficient Importance to be
considered in this connection. SEN
ator Pettigrew has given this matter
special attention, and says that Da-
kota alone will soon be able to sup
plv all the demand for tin plate in
this country and excellent tin mines
which give promise of profitable
working have also been discovered
in Montana. American mines have
not been developed for the simple
reason that they could not be in COM
petition with English tin plate, which
was free or nearly so. What the
American needs is a chance, and the
price of tin plate will go down just
in proportion as home production
and manufacture increases.

Give Him Another Term.

Mr.. Editor,-In your issue of July
21st, IN regard to county politics, ,after
mentioning the good qualities of the
different candidates for Senators in
all of which most heartily concur,
you say in regard to Assistant Judge
"there will be no desire in the north
part of the county to make change >
Now, Mr.. Editor, as far as / can
learn there is no desire in the south
end for a change. Every one seems
to be well pleased with Judge Owen,
while the bar seem to be unanimous
in asking for his retention. You
spoke of an almost inexorable law
governing this matter; poor isn't it!
This is good year to break old rules.
The State Convention thought so and
I find by looking over the list of past
Assistant Judges that several good
men have held their office for nine
consecutive terms. Now there is no
reason in the idea that a Judge must
be changed every four years. His is
purely judicial office, and should
not be changed any more than the
probate Judge. Other counties seem
to be working up to the idea of re-
electing the Assistant Judges for the
third and fourth terms, why not Or
leans, as we'll as Franklin and Rut-
land counties, to place it mild Mr.
Editor, Judge Owens friends of the
south end of the county would be
much pleased at his retention.

Weekly Payments.

To the Editor Of the Monitor -
Farmers and laborerers will no doubt
be pleased to learn that there will be
an effort made to have a law passed
by the next Legislature, that mill
owners and corporations shall pay
their help weekly. The matter lies
in the laborers' hands, and if they
put themselves to work and vote for
a man that will sustain the bill, there
is no doubt but it will become a law
at our next session. 1t is generally
understood that in some parts of this
State labOrers are hired at as low
wages as possible, are kept back on
their pay, and compelled to trade in
corporation store paying a great
deal more for their supplies. Again,
if a farmer comes into town with but
ter, eggs, fresh pork, potatoes, in
fact any and all kinds of farm pro-
duce, he is obliged to sell to corpOr-
alton store, and take his payin trade
for the laborers have no money to
direct. 1t is getting in some local
tiles to be almost impossible for
farmer to obtain money from his
products sufficient to pay his taxes
and interest on his mortgage. There
will no doubt be a great cry from the
manufacturers that it will be great
trouble for them to arrange pay rolls
and pay once week, but the writer
thinks it will give no more trouble
than to pay each day in molasses, fish
ands'truck and dicker." Weekly pay
ments will do away with more than
one-half Of bookkeeping where the
pay is taken out of the store. 1t will
be we'll for the people to be looking
into this matter and be ready to vote
for the man-be he Republican or
Democrat-who will stand by the
laboring man and the farmer.
Very Respectfully,
M. III. DAVIS.

Judge Powers Successor.

The acceptance by Judge H. III.
Powers of the republican nomination
for congressman from the First Yer
mont district is leading to consider
able discussion as to his probable
successor on the supreme bench. A
prominent lawyer who is thoroughly
posted on state politics was in this
city Saturday and gave representa-
tive of the Free Press some interest
ing information upon the subject. He
said that Hon. P. X. Gleed of Nor
risville, Hon. L. II. Thompson of
Irasburgh, Hon. William E. johnson
of Woodstock, Hon. Hiram A. Huse
and George w. Wing Esq, of Mont
pelier, and Hon. Joel G.. Baker of
Rutland have been prominently men
toned in connection with the posi-
tion. Montpelier is putting forward
a special claim to the position on the
ground that there should be Judge
at the state capital, and there are
indications that the democrats will
urge Hon. S. G.. Shurtleff for the
place, with the special plea that the
party should be represented by at
least one judge of the supreme court
of the state.-FTee Press.

Applaud1ng Secretary Blaine.

"Blaine is master of the situation,
and the British lion can roar as much
as he likes" This was the sentiment
universally expressed to-day by Re-
publican leaders in commenting upon
the Behring Sea correspondence
which appeared in The Press dispatch
es this morning. Democrats, too,
sounded the praises of the Secretary
of State. Some of them were as
profuse in their expressions of adj
mirstion as the Premier's party de-
votees.
No one was more happy over the
appearance of the correspondence
than r. r. Hit, chairman of the
House Committee on Foreign Rela-
tiOns.
'Secretary Blaine" said he, "has
not receded one step from the posi-
ton he originally assumed. The
British press have misrepresented
our claims in stating that we conten-
ded for absolute jurisdiction over the
whole of Behring Sea. Mr.. Blaine,
on the other hand, has insisted from
the outset that seals having then
home on our territory must be pro-
tected wherever they wander by the
United States government. Sails
bury has admitted, at least once, all
that we claim. Satisfactory settle
ment had all but been reached a few
months ago when, as Secretary
Blaine states, Salisbury abruptly
closed the negotiations because the
Canadian government objected, and
he assigned no reason. What would
be said if the United States govern
ment should stop negotiations because
a single state or territory objected
Since Salisbury apprised Mr.. Blaine
of Canada's objection, our Secretary
| of State and British Minister have
been engaged in friendly correspon-
dence looking to an early agreement.
All talk about Salisbury's ultimatum
is pure nonsense. He simply states
that his government will hold the
United States responsible for violation
of any international law, The seiz-
ure of pirates who kill our seals is
certainly no violation of information
al law, and Mr.. Blaine points oui
tha& fact. Mr.. Blaine has clearly de-
fined our position, and no amount Of
British bluff will change it. ."-Nea

Our democratic friends seek cons

Our democratic friends seek cOnso-
lation in the professed belief that
of Vermont republicans
will greatly reduce the customary
"off-year" majority for the guberna-
torial ticket. They are blinded by
their hopes, rather than governed by
reason. The republicans Of Vermont
are not accustomed to play into the
hands of democrats, and do not pro-
pose to do so this year. They real
ize that reduced majority for the
state ticket will afford especial salts
faction and encouragement to the
democratic party at large. They do
not propose to contribute to that sat
isfaction by indifference, or negli-
gence, but will be present in force at
the polls in September, and again
blast the hopes of their enemies
