Arrival Of the Swedes

The Rutland Herald of Friday, said !:
"The first colony of Swedish immigrants
to locate on the abandoned farms of
Vermont, under State auspices, arrived
Yesterday morning in charge of Commits
sioner Valentine. Twelve of the Swedes,
representing seven families, stopped at
Wilmington; nineteen, representing
twelve families, stopped at Weston
while twelve more, representing eight
families, went on the afternoon train to
Vershire. Commissioner Valentine stated
that the party came from Vermland,
Sweden, and all belonged to one church
in that place. They left Liverpool April
o, and report a very pleasant voyage.
They arrived in New York Wednesday
and twelve of the party remained in that
city with friends and will join the colo
nists later. Rev. X. A. Martin Of Proc
tor met the party at the station and acted
as Interpreter and went to their new
homes on the same train in special car
that was attached to the train at Troy,
making the journey to Vershire without
change. The immigrants were a clean,
intelligent looking class of people and
Mai. Valentine told Herald reporter
that the inspector at New York said that
any state should be proud to have such a
class of foreigners, and considered these
among the best immigrants that have
reached American shores this year.
Through their interpreter, Mr.. Mar,
tin, the Swedes said they had been wei
used since their arrival in this country
and were well pleased with America, but
of course were little homesick at first
"The colonists were by no means with
out money, and will, II the country suit
them and they like Vermont farming
send for their friends and the rest OF
their families"
The families for Wilmington were nc
companied thither by II. @. Lindloff.I HI
SAYS the Swedes were received at Viii
mingtOn in hospitable manner, farm
were readily sold TO them, and in sOm'
instances the colOnists paid cash dow
for their supplies. The Swedes coulC
hardly credit the evidence of their sensel

STATE FIREMEN.
A Chat with President Hannum about Ar
rangements for the August Convention.

80 nv = 80
Interest is increasing and the new
State Firemen's Association is gaining a
stronger fOOthOld in the State every day
of its existence. President Hannum in
talking with reporter Monday, said
there were inquiries every few days
about the Association, calls for its by
laws and constitution, and the interest
being manifested all over the State Is
certainly very marked. The Association
is bound to grow and ere many months
have passed every department in Yer
mont will be enrolled among its mem
bers. Since the organization of the so
ciety the departments at Poultney, st.
Adams and Montpelier have voted to
join the Association, also the remaining
companies of the Fairhaven department,
while several departments have reported
that they will join the Association later.
Copies of the constitution and bylaws
are being printed and as soon as ready
Secretary Moore of Bennington, will send
them out to every department in Yer
mont. +.
As was arranged at the organization
meeting in Rutland, the first annual con
vention of the Association will be held
in Burlington in August, but the dates
uOb nAtu cACCubtNC
is waiting to learn the time and place of
holding the annual encampment of the
State militia which also occurs in August.
AS soon as the dates are anpouncedt
the executive committee will beginactive
work in making preparations for the
event; although the work is new to the
officers and members, their actions will
be governed somewhat by other State
Associations, nevertheless they intend to
have a big time and attractive events.
The convention will be in session two
days, the first day being devoted entirely
to business, including the election of
officers; matters, of course, of interest
to firemen and departments will be
brought up for discussion. On the sec
ond day there will very likely be parade
of all the companies in the morning with
sports in the afternoon; the latter will
include hose race, which will be the
principal event, foot races, hook and lad
der races, hand-engine contests, exhibit
lions of drilled companies and possibly
other attractions. There would probably
be first, second and third prizes Of money
in each event.
1t is President Hannum's idea to offer
large prizes in the hose race, thus ensur-
ing the attendance of the crack COM
panies of this State and possibly other
States. Rutland is sure to send large
delegation to the conventiOn--Rutland

Coming to Vermont.

The following was taken from Satur-
days issue of the Springfield, Mass, Re-
publican:
IN. Z. MAMMAL, who has passed the
last three months in Norway and Sweden
in the interest of. the proposed Norweg-
ian colony in Vermont, returned to this
city this week. Important papers, to-
gether with letter Of introduction from
Secretary Blaine, gave him an audience
with King Oscar, who is much interested
in the colonization scheme as shown by
his recent founding of free library of
Swedish books in the New Sweden colo
ny in Maine. The immediate result of
his trip is the coming of twelve families
to settle in the new Swedish colony which
Mr.. Mannall has been taking such pains
to establish. He has made arrangements
with the conductor of the American Ex-
change in Christiana, Norway, to con-
duct that end of what is practically an
emigration bureau, and new families,
bound for Norton, Essex Co., VT, will
arrive here almost every week. Not
only this, but number of Americanized
Swedes are planning to go to the new
colony, among them four families from
this CITY,"

The sxedes in Vermont.

As result of the efforts of Commits
sioner of Emigration Valentine Of Ben
nington, who was appointed by the last
Vermont Legislature, twenty-seven
Swedish families have been introduced
into that State and they comprise sixty
persons. Seven of those families have
iacated at Wilmington, Windham county,
twelve in Weston, Windsor county, and
eight in Vershire, Orange county. Much
interest is felt in this movement through
out the State, it being regarded as in a
great measure an experiment. 1t is
feared by many who favor the movement
that the Swedes will not be content to re-
main on those barren hill farms, but will
be anxious to join their cOuntrymen,
many of whom are employed in the mar
BILE duarries at West Rutland and Proc
tor. 1t is hoped that the new corners
will be pleased with their prospects and
that consequently the tide of emigration
will set toward Vermont and create a
supply for every demand. Those people
will, of course, have comfortable homes
and a ready market, and if they can make
those so-called abandoned farms produc-
tive, their opportunities will of course be
better in their new location than in the
West.-TrOy Press.
While in the main the city press APP
pear to be friendly to the movement to
repeOple New Englond, as shown by this
and similar items, yet it is passing
strange that the land should be SO often
spoken Of as ''barren,n when such a
statement is an untruth made out Of
whole cloth. We suppose the high and
pild lands of Tennessee just now doomed
are Paradise? We cannot account for
the business sense that sees a maximum
of value in western lands and minimum
for the cultivated lands Of the East.
