There has leen great rejoicing in Chicago in consequence of that city being selected for the holding of a Worlds Fair. Tue opponents to bcld- ing a fair will have a show, under the leadership of k. c Mills, when the proposition for Congress 10 give $1,500,000 is discussed The oppos;- ton to the fair IS said to be strong, and likely to be strengthened by mem bers who favored eithet New York or St. Louis, and now that their prefer suceS were knocked out, some of them, at least, regard 8 Worlds Fair as an expensive and unnecessary exhibition. The Washington correspondent of the lobe-Democrat says there IS an inner wheel of politics worl ing agalnst the far and il is probable the Senate will not pass the bill at all unless it Do de- cided tc held it in Washington.

 A CATASTROPHE AsERTED.

The Tempe News gives a graphic description of the discovery by section foreman Stelzreid of the washing away of the trestle leading to the rail road bridge crossing Salt River near Tempe, just in time to prevent the destruction of the south-bound train from Phoenix with its cargo of human freight. Upon reaching the bridge, at four o'clock a. m., Stel2reld, peer ing through the stygian darkness. thought he discovered break in the approach to the bridge on the opposite side of the river. Stelzreid groped his way cautiously over the ties, amid the deafening roar of the torrent beneath and the ominous shaking of the bridge, and had not proceeded far when his fears were confirmed treStle for distance of 1S0 feet had been swept away by the furious torrent. Already the headlight of the locomotive was visible not three quarters of a mile away, and Stelzreid barely had time to retrace his steps and stop the tram almost upon the very brink of the yawning chasm. It was a narrow eS- cape, Salt River, on Saturday, at Tempe, had reached point fourteen feet above low water mark, and is pronounced the greatest flood ever known

any state in the Union. We have
more live stock than any state IN
New England. 1t is true that, COM
pared with some of our sister states,
we are lacking in manufactures, but
they are sure to come in the sweet
bv-and-by, as there is abundant
water power in almost every town
ship and no high license asked for its
consumption. although some cow
ardly capitalists may now think the
streams not worth a dam. What's
the matter with Vermont? She's all
right Vermonter's should have con-
fdencei in the state and in themselves.
Let me utter a word of hope to
our farmers. Admitting that the
prices of agricultural products are
unsatisfactory, it is true that in
most foreign countries they are
worse, and, besides, bear the burden
of ponderous taxation for large
standing armies. In our country we
now have a home market for these
products, not including cotton, to
the amount of 90 per cent. These
products are increasing, but at
rate much smaller than the increase
large share of this increase, and they
must be dependent upon the farmers
of the rural districts for their sup
plies. We are likely, therefore, soon
to find a satisfactory market for the
farmers at home. Our young men
for the past twenty-five years have
been going West after free and fer
tile homestead of 16O acres. There
are more than 10000 VermOnters,
including their descendants, residing
in other states, many of whom have
prospered in the West by raising
wheat and corn for Eastern markets,
though somewhat at the expense of
the old folks at home. Cheap trans
portation offers wide competition.
But few attractive free homesteads,
however, now remain to be offered.
The drawbacks of the arid regions,
and the Western drouths, grasshop-
pers and cyclones more than offset
the first cost of good hOmesteads In
Vermont. 1t is my strong conv1c-
ton that the general depression in
farming has touched its lowest point
in the United States, and that we
may have reason to expect that
farming within a few years will be
much more remunerative, or so
profitable that our young men will
find no attractions elsewhere, and
even that some of those who have
gone West will return to eat the fat
ted calf and all be merry.
Let me in conclusion tender thanks
to the speaker and other gentlemen
for this opportunity of cordially
greeting all those who have honored
me by their presence.

CHINESE FARMERS.

One of the most striking and most
useful characteristics of the Chinese
is their remarkable ability as far
mers. In the United States, if a
father were to give his son two or
that he expected him to raise vege-
tables enough on this acreage to
grow rich, the son would be fully
justified in indulging in incredulous
laughter. Suppose that, in addition
to making his own living, and to
paying and feeding a laborer out of
the produce of the land, the son were
called upon to pay $25 or $50 a
month rent per acre, would not every
one say, This is impossible ?" But
it is MOTTO a Chinaman, at least.
A year ago sold for friend in San
Francisco about two and one-quar-
ter acres of land in a western suburb.
A Chinaman was occupying it. For
this speck of ground he regularly
paid SIS a month, and he lived on it
with an assistant. He used it for
growing vegetables, which he dis
posed of to Cinnamon. When l sold
the lot the Chinaman had been upon
1t three years, and his lease had two
years to run. The buyer desired to
fill the lot in and to sell it for build
ing plots, but the Chinaman would
not leave. Despite the high rent he
was making money, and he was dis
possessed only by an action at law
to suppress his business as nuisance.
The Rev. Mr.. Vrooman, now Chinese
INTERPRETER in the California courts,
who was for twenty-five years a
missionary at Canton, and was sub
sequently among the Chinese in Mel
bourne, informed me that he knew of
two Chinese in the latter place
who made a living for themselves
and for horse from a quarter of an
acre of land. In addition to support
ing themselves and the horse, they
each sent $50 yearly to their rela-
tives.- THE Forum.

remember that others before US have
been 'penny-wise and pound-fool-
ish." Economy in school matters
does not necessarily mean retrench-
ment.
1t is not my purpose in this letter,
however, to defend the new school
law; its defence everywhere through
out the state is to be seen in the I'M
firing zeal of the opponents of the
law, in the enthusiasm and hearty
cooperation of the teachers in their
attempts to improve the schools,
and finally, in the marked improve
ment of the schools as a whole The
time has come for the real friends of
education to aid in the reformation
so surely commenced. Let them visit
the schools and participate in the
teachers and other educational
meetings being maintained about the
county that they may judge intelli-
gently Of the work being done. We
are all interested to have good
schools, thing we cannot realize by
contending over few dollars extra
expense. 1t has been the bane and
disgrace of the state that Vermont
paid the lowest wages of any state
or territory in the Union. Let us
welcome the day when this is no
longer true, for better paid and con-
sequently better qualified teachers
are the hope of our school system.

without a warning. The first symptom is
hoarseness then the child appears to have
taken cold or cold may have accompanied
the hoarseness from the start. After that a
peculiar rough cough is developed, which is
followed by the Group. The time to act is
when the child first becomes hoarse; few

A FRIEND OF ERICSSON.

John Dean Benton, machinist, in
ventor and bosom friend of John
Ericsson, died in East Providence
Saturday morning, October 10. He
was born in Fort independence, Bos-
ton, 81 years ago, his father, Major
Benton, being commandant. He
was in the war. Rheumatism de-
formed his hands and feet, so that he
could not follow his trade of jeweler
He set to work making models, and
in all turned out 125 different work
ing automata of the nickel-in-the-slot
order. He made the silver model of
the Corliss engine which was on ex-
hibition at the centennial in 1876,
and also that of independence hall,
which is now in Washington. He
made six or seven models of ships in
gold and silver for Gen Morgan of
New York, and there are a great
many models about the country
from which he derived a large income.
Benton was ordered by Ericsson s
friends to build model of the mon
itorin gold and silver to be presented
to Ericsson. When he tried to pre-
sent it to the Swedish commodore,
he met with a cold reception. The
music-box within the model then be-
gan to play the familiar airs of
Ericsson's fatherland, when the
scientist burst into tears. A firm
friendship resulted from this little
incident.

RINGING WORDS.

THE Lincoln Independents ofPhiadelphia to
Hon. Robert T. Lincoln1
You further say that you cannot
agree Gin the soundness of a position
which is based on an assumption of
representing the opinions of republi-
can leaders who can no longer speak
for themselves" Your father, my
dear sir, be it said in all sincerity and
reverence, was one of that goodly
company of martyrs and of prophets
who, being dead yet speak" You
do him less honor than we to suppose
to the contrary. Neither the lapse
of years nor the debasement of the
name which his speech and acts made
glorious can silence his words in the
heart of the American people.
Neither the words nor the counsels
of Abraham Lincoln are of private
or familiar Interpretation. They are
the common property of the nation.
When we attack the spoils system
of government, for which Mr.. Quay
and his lieutenants-M essrs Andrews,
Cooper, Martin, Leeds-are the liv
ing and tangible examples, we have
the sanction of Abraham Lincoln for
tance: If this country ever goes
down it will be not from the assault
of a foreign foe, but under the
"wriggle and scramble" for office
And when we rise in the strength of
outraged citizenship to protest
against the election of a candidate
selected two years previous to the
meeting of the convention which
nominally chose him by the auto
cratic will of a party boss,-a candi
date who even by the confession of
some of his personal supporters has
failed satisfactorily to explain ac-
cusa tons against his official record,
we have again the justification of
your fathers word in his immortal
speech at Gettysburg, where he calls
on us "highly to resolve that these
dead shall not have died in vain,
that this nation under God shall
have a new birth of freedom, and
that government of the people, by
the people, and for the people, shall
not perish from the earth"
