AFARMERs, SCHOOL.

In the supplement to the Caledo-
nian which is this week furnished our
Vermont readers is an article concisely
setting forth the case of the agricul-
tural college. 1t deserves the careful
attention of our readers With it
are excellent plans of the buildings OF
the Rhode Island institution at
Kingston, prepared by the New Eng
land Homestead, which is taking a
lively interest in the establishment in
this state and New Hampshire of dis
tinctively agricultural schools. This
supplement therefore takes on very
practical character.
Last week the CALIFORNIAN briefly
set forth the many reasons why St.
Johnsbury was the most desirable
location for the new school, In this
supplement we present a fuller state
ment of this phase of the case, be-
lieving that it will appeal to the best
judgment of every reader. Vermont
should have a farmers school and
St. Johnsbury should be it's location
The agricultural college is surely
coming. If the bill does not pass
this year, it will become predomi-

paign. The farmers of Vermont are

THE MCKINLEY NONSENSE.

1t is fashionable just now to attri-
butte to the Mckinley bill everything
that happens in the heavens above
or in the earth beneath 1t is so
fashionable thatit has become weari-
some. Newspapers theorize and
prophecy with small regard to facts
and political orators make dogmatic
assertions that are Immediately con-
tradicted by practical men. The Nc
Kinley bill will probably be found
when the political turmoil subsidies,
to be neither Sc beneficial nor so inju-
rious as its friends and enemies would
make it appear. Prices have huctua-
ted before now without the aid of a
Mckinley bill. The great American
people are not going into BANKRUPTCY
and the world will probably move
on in its accustomed orbit, when pol
iticians stop talking about things
they don understand.

ST. JOhnsbury Speakers Oppose it at a

The general committee of the state

evening. Messrs. L. D. Hazen,
Superintendent Turner of the scale
works, and Representative Walker,
all of this town, spoke against the
bill Mr. Hazen spoke of the addi-
tional expense it would be to himself
and the great inconvenience 1t would
OCCASION For his lumber camps he
employs every season about five
hundred choppers and other help,
many of whom are Canadians. He
does not see this force from the time
it starts into the woods in the fall
till it gets through in the spring.
The men stay in the camps over
night where the accommodations are
of a rude and simple character. 1t
would be a practical absurditv to
pay them every week. They would
have no place to keep their money
and no way to spend it if they should
have it. Not one of the thousands
of men he had had in his employ had
asked Tor weekly payments or even
inquired if he paid weekly.
Mr.. Turner testified to the cordial
feelings which had always existed
between the Fairbanks Scale Com
pany and its employees. These
pleasant relations had always been
maintained by the employers; first,
from humane feelings, and, second,
because it was for their interest.
They had about 600 employees,
many of whom were skilled laborers.
The company's monthly pay roll is
about $4,000. The company runs
general store where a large portion
ofthe employees buy their provisions
and other goods. The value of the
goods purchased was deducted from
the wages due. The plan was
mutually satisfactory and advanta
geous- Under the weekly payment
system, the credit account could not

THE SCHOOL LAW.

The endorsement given to the
school law by the teachers of the
state in their annual convention is
worthy of thoughtful attention from
the Legislature. The teachers are
better qualified than others to judge
of the practical working of the law,
much of the opposition to which re-
suits from utter ignorance of its pro-
visions. The passage of the measure
to equalize taxation for school pur-
poses will remedy the most notice
able evil in the working of the law
and beyond that it should be given
time for fair trial, which it has not
yet had. The best judgment of the
state is on the side of the law. Those
who denouncc it most vigorously as
a rule know least about it.

THE HIGH LICENSE BILL.

A dispatch to the CALIFORNIAN last
night announced the introduction in
the House of the much Heralded high
license bill. The feeling at the CAPT
tai Ill regard to the measure seems
to be one of placid indifference.
Friends and opponents of the bill
alike know that it Will not pass, but
there is a mild curiosity to see just
how much of a complimentary vote
it will get The bill, as outlined by
our correspondent, seems to be a
moderate local option measure,
which would be very good if Vermont
had been under the blighting influence
ofunrestricted license. Asa step from
prohibition, however, the proposed
leglsla ton would be a step backward
which Vermont is not prepared to
take We hope she will never be pre-
pared for such step, that she will
never lower her flag to the rum in
terest- She certainly will not now.
At the same time it is perhaps just
as well to recognize the fact that the
high license agitators are vigorous
fighters and that vigilance is ever
necessary to maintain Vermont
stand in behalf of morality and
temperance.

test of more than local significance.
The fiery Tillman, brother of the con-
gresham of that name, forced his
nomination for governor in the dem
mans candidate most emphatically
and denounces the negro and negro
suffrage. The republicans nomi-
mated a straight democratic ticket
with Judge A. c. Haskell, thorough
going democrat, but an upright
and fair-1ninded man at its head.
Judge Haskell, while refusing to run
as republican candidate, is in the
field as democrat and has made an
appeal for the votes of white and
colored men of all parties, promising
to redeem past pledges of fair treat
ment of all citizens without regard
to race. He will receive a large part
of the colored republican vote
although the Tillmanites threaten
any who attempt to vote the Haskell
ticket with the old methods of pOlit-
ical warfare characteristic of South
Carolina. The result means much
for the solution of the race problem
of the South

NEXT WEEKS ELECTIONS.

Next Tuesday and Wednesday a
general congressional election takes
place and a large majority of the
states select either full or partial
state governments. The issues
involved are many and in more than
one quarter local questions over
shadow those of national signi6i-
canoe To review all the interesting
contests, the results of which will be
made known next week, would
require more space than the Caledo-
Man contains. There is the fight in
Representative Cannon's district in
Illinois, where the man who once
aspired to the speakership OF the
national house is opposed by half of
the papers of his own party in the
district because of his foul and pro-
fame language on the floor of the
House. Then there is the hard fight
to save Major Mckinley, in the new
district where his democratic oppon-
ents have loaded the dice against
him by a most disreputable gerry
mander Many other cases are
worth reviewing likewise, but there
are three in particular upon which
the eyes of the country are turned
with interest.
The mayoralty of New York city
is an office of vast Importance. The
churches, the better elements of the
democratic party and the republi-
cans have united this year in a vigor-
Gus non-partisan effort to rescue it
and the rest of the metropolitan
administration from the grip of
Tammany Hall. The nominee for
mavor, Thomas NJ. Scott, is a demo-
crat but he is violently opposed by
the Tammany influence The fight
is between good government and
jobbery.
In Pennsylvania the silent Quay is
fighting for vindication by party
support from criminal charges which
he dares not meet fairly and squarely.
The bolt in the republican ranks
against Quay's creature, Delamater,
is apparently the greatest revolt the
party has seen in the keystone state
for years. Robert E. Pattison, the
democratic candidate is a clean man
with an enviable record already as
governor of the state. 1t is our hon
est belief that the overthrow of Quay
by the defeat of the state ticket will
be good thing for the republican
party Quay's influence in the party
councils through the prestige of his
work in 1888 has been too great and
too despotically and unscrupulously
used.
In South Carolina is another con-

lack of authority or of efficiency the
board falls short of the measure OF
usefulness which it should attain.
The Massachusetts railroad commits
sioners do more than have inspec-
tons and Investigations and make
reports. They sit as a judicial tribu-
nal, the peoples defence against the
great railroad corporations, with
the power and the will to enforce
their DEGREES.
The Vermont board has always
been on very good terms with the
railroad companies and nothing has
ever occurred to mar the pleasant
understanding existing between
them. This is probably desirable
but it hardly gives the people the
benefit they are supposed to derive
from a railroad commission.

PROGRESS OF BALLOT REFORM.

The last Maine legislature disap-
pointed the more advanced citizens
of the state by defeating an Austria
liam ballot bill. They were behind
the times in the Pine Tree state but
they didn't realize it. Since then the
agitation has continued and the cur
rent of opinion among the members
of the coming legislature is strongly
in favor of an Australian ballot law,
as far as they have been heard from.
1t is the old story of the mass of the
people climbing slowly the steps the
reformers take at a jump. New
Hampshire is going through the
same experience. Vermont should
put the best possible law on its stat
ute books at once and not wait for
the rear of the procession.
