c. NJ. Stone, the editor of the St Johns
bury Cdledonidn, died very suddenly at
Jacksonville, Fla, yesterday morning.
Mr.. Stone was south on account of his
health and was accompanied by his wife.
A special to the Herald says: "Mr.
Stone was the veteran editor of Vermont
and Maine, and the CdledOnidn, as a
model country newspaper, is a living
monument to his memory. In May,
1853, Mr.. Stone was united in marriage
to Sarah. daughter of the late ex Gov.
Erastus Fairbanks. He leaves widow

Both the United States and Canadian Governments in
the reports of their investigations of baking powders have
published this fact officially.
The other baking powders known in this vicinity ara
shown by chemical tests to contain from 20 to 80 per

When the Royal makes you finer and wholesome

here is considered these figures show a
marvellous advantage on our side in the
production of the raw tin, and with tin
representing less than five per cent. Of
the value Of tin plate, with iron renre-

developed iron industry already exist

world why the duty on tin plate should
not be increased and the tin plate in

work. 1t is better that plans of relief ike
that of General Booth should be carried
o ut than that the poor should starve, but 1t
W ould be better still that the workers were
so paid for work that real privation could
be the result only Of accident or improvi.
dence Some of these days statesman
will arise in England who will devise
broader plans for the relief of the poor.
These plans will include such compensation
for work as will enable the worker to i've
in comfort and provide against sickness ana
old age. So long as England is engaged IN
life and death struggle to supply the mar
kets of the world with goods at the lowest
possible cost the workers will be subjected
to privations and the more benevolent
among the rich will contribute pennies in
the form Of aims. Lord Salisbury adj
mitted the force of competition When he
said that il English laborers had an eight
hour bill forbidding men to exercise their
strength and skill as long as laborers do
abroad, thus imposing hindrances on pro-
duction, they must be prepared 10 meet, as
natural result, The victorious competition
of ether countries where labor was not so
embarrassed. Free trade will throw the
United States into this grinding competition
in which success is only possible by redue-
ing wages to the standard which produces
such direful results in England
