AN International Question.

A man named Jack Hays made things
interesting for Officer Rose. on the Mer-
chants hotel beat, yesterday afternoon.
Hays was very drunk. He had asked
the permission of the hotel proprietors
to hoist a green flag, with a harp on it,
on the hotel flagstaff, Ito show that the
Irish owned the town." Manager Welz
protested that the hotel property had
not yet been annexed. Hays suisse
guently tried to convey the desired in
formation by vocal force. and fell into
the hands of the Irish forthwith.

NEEDED LEGISLATION.

From the Burlington Clipper.
The Massachusetts Legislature pro-
poses to pass bill requiring transient
merchants who offer goods for sale in
that State to obtain license, the fee
for which shall be at least equal TO the
tax paid by permanent trader on a
similar stock of goods. The law is aim
ed, of course, at those peripatetic ven
ders of bankrupt" and "slightly dam
aged" stocks, who dodge around regu-
latng their going so as to escape the tax
gatherer and cut the throats of honest
tradesmen by unloading upon the pub
lie cheap wares. We need similar law, ,
only more so, in Vermont and the next
Legislature is likely to be called upon to
legisate the cheap travelling concerns
out of the State. There is no danger of
making the license for such tramps too
high. 1t will be protection to The
poorer class of people as well as to the
merchants.

DlSGRAOEEuL. LIE TRuE.

Rev. c. ii. Merrill of st. Johnsbury,
secretary of the Vermont Domestic Mis-
sionary society. made these among other
statements in recent address at Bur-
lingtOn;
One-half the church pulpits in the
State are vacant. Vermont ministers are
doing more work for less pay than any
other ministers in the country. One-half
the population of the State of Vermont
are not only unchurched-they are abso-
lutely unreached by any religious agen-
cy. The people of this State are giving
literally to the support of foreign mis-
sionary work, while their own State is
fast becoming missionary field. The
reason for this is, Mr.. Merrill thinks,
that the people know about the distant
fields and are ignorant concerning the
home field. A Kansas clergyman recent
ly sent to Mr.. Merrill for twenty-five
copies of the Fairbanks map and pamph-
let, showing the religious destitution of
this State for distribution among the peo-
pie of Kansas and for the purpose of
raising funds to send East. a similar
request was recently received from the
South. The foreigners in Vermont are
not the ones who are thus destitute. The
Roman Catholic church cares well for ITS
children. Those who are not being
reached are Yankee born, native New
England stock. Mr.. Merrill cited the
Middlebury register. (Middlebury, Vt.) 1886-1937, 1890-04-18

case of a man, born and living in Ner-
mont, who is now pastor of an active
church in this State. who never heard a
sermon preached until he entered Mid
dlebury college.
1t is to be hoped that the picture drawn
by Mr.. Merrill is darker than the facts
will warrant, but it is to be feared that
what he says is no more than the truth.
If he is right, the people of the State who
are sending their money out to Timbuctoo
and the backwoods of India and japan
ought to be reformed. Charity is said to
begin at home. and so should missionary
work. Mrs. Jellaby. who labored night
and day in the interest of society for
sending moral pocket handkerchiefs to
the heathen and flannel shirts to the
Hottentots, while her own family grew
up in dirt and ignorance, was apparently
no more ridiculous as an individual than
Vermont is as State.

FRIDAY, APRIL Is, 1890.
Why SO PREVIOUS

The sachems of that hopeless minority.
the Democratic party of Vermont, met
in Montpelier last week and decided to
hold the State and district conventions
at Burlington on the 29th of May.
The fixing of so early a date is the oc-
casion of considerable comment. 1t is,
of course, of no consequence to any one
except members of the party whether
the Democrats hold convention at all !;
for they have no expectation of doing
more than to go through the motions. 1t
looks, however, as if this matter had
been decided with the hope of helping on
the fortunes of some aspirant or aspi-
rants for nomination by the Republicans.
Quite likely one or another of the cam
didates feels that the longer the Repub-
lican convention is deferred, the farther
he will be from winning, and that he is
therefore working the Democratic party
in this fashion to hurry up the Republi-
cans.

HIGHWAY SUPERVISION.

From the Brattleboro Reformerl
The Middlebury Register advances an
idea that is well worth thinking of. in the
way of county supervision of highways.
1t is believed that each county could prof
itably hire specialist to supervise the
building and repairing of roads upon
scientific principles, with due regard to
all the conditions involved What is the
objection: Towns and districts would
still have the handling of the money, as
under the school law. The healthy prin-
ciple of home rule would be retained, but
with assistance that would afford hope of
its being both sensible and healthy. There
can be no question that our old methods
of handling roads are atrocious for waste
and shiftless shortsightedness.

IhE WRONG BASIS.

A number of our esteemed cOntempo-
raries are getting into IA terrible state of
mind trying to figure up how many
newspapers each of the candidates for
the governorship has corraled. The
Newport Express, for example. has it
that % support Mr.. Page, Il are for Mr..
Woodbury., while six don't tell. Inas-
much as there is no issue of any impor-
tance involved in the campaign, it is per-
haps just as well for the papers to busy
themselves over this problem as to abuse
one another; but, after all, the test of
strength which they use is not of great
value. The opinion of newspaper may
be bought, it may be forced on the editor
by outside influences, it may be based
solely upon the preiudices of the editor,
or it may be more or less successful at
tempt to voice the notions of the papers
constituency. In the latter case only is
that opinion helpful either to the candi-
date or to the general public. If paper
expresses the views of the people, its
utterances are worth considering; other
wise not. The people, not the news
papers, do the nominating and electing
when it comes down to business.
