The Condensed Milk Company.

1t has been determined by the man.
agement of the Aroostook Condensed
Milk Company to locate the first of their
series of factories at Newport, which
will be the first starting of a much
needed industry that will give this
beautiful railroad village an impetus
toward donning its city clothing, which
will be encouraged further by the build
ing of an extensive wooden mill. The
condensed milk factory will be located
on plot of land recently purchased of
Elisha M, Shaw, which is prominently
situated, fronting the railroad and sur
rounded by streets on all sides, and con-
tanning several acres, which will give
the corporation sufficient space to erect
their main building. This will be of
brick, four stories high, $50 feet long
and forty feet wide, with slated roof,
and also an engine-house, box factory
and building in which tin cans are manu-
featured for the condensed product. Sew
eral houses will be constructed on these
premises for their workmen. 1t is esti-
mated the plant will cost fifty thousand
dollars. The capacity will be sufficient
to use the milk from four thousand
cows, which must give the farmers in
a radius of ten miles golden oppor-
tunity to go to farming on the true and
only basis in Maine, which is to con-
sumo the hay and grain ON the farm
and sell the product in a more concen-
trated form. The capital to build,
equip aud operate this large factory is
partly local, some of the stock being
taken by the farmers and business men
of Newport, Bangor and other sections.
The larger portion is held in Boston
The second factory will be located at
some point in Aroostook county,

Commencement at Goddard.

The twenty-second annual commence
ment at Goddard Seminary, Barre, was
held last week. 1t was one of Goddard's
most successful commandments. The past
has been a prosperous year, and the outlook
for increased prosperity and growth is very
encouraging, The graduating class was the
largest in the history of the school and the
prospect for a full school at the opening of
the fall term is all that could be desired. The
formal exercises began Sunday afternoon,
June 81, in the Universalist church, the in
terror OF which was tastefully decorated
with profusion of evergreens, ferns and
flowers. The services opened with an or
gan voluntary followed by responsive read
ing with Scripture reading and prayer by
Rev. w. II. Shipman, ID, of Tufts Col
lege. The baccalaureate was by Rev. John
Coleman Adams of Brooklyn, n. Y. The
text was Revelations iii: n, ITO him that
overcometh will grant to sit with me on
my throne, even as | also overcame, and
am set down with my Father upon his
throne" The sermon was learned and
full Of deep thought and excellent advice,
yet it was thoroughly practical discourse,
He divided man into the physical, the mem
tai and the moral nature, and urged the i'm
portance of cultvating all and securing a
full rounded character. The spiritual ma
ture is the highest but cannot be fully de-
veloped without the aid OF good physical
and mental basis. Those who overcome
all their difficulties and secure good physi-
cal mental and spiritual training, are the
ones who will reap the best rewards. His
address to the class was worthy of especial
mention. 1t was full of tenderness and sym
pathy, and abounded in words of eucour-
agement and advice. The music, prepared
especially for the occasion, was finely rem
dered
MONDAY.
On Monday, at nine A. M, came the public
examination in physiology, conducted by
Miss Flora Smith, and in the afternoon the
exercises OF the junior class were held in the
upper chapel The windows at the rear of
the stage were completely filed with ever
green, and the stage was beautifully deco
rated with evergreens and ferns. On the
wall at the back of the stage the figures '92
were arranged in daisies, the class flower.
The programme was as follows Piano duet,

To Farnham and Back in Twenty
Four Hours.

Mr.. Editor The long looked-for eXcur-
sion TO Farnham by the st. Jean Baptiste
Society has come and gone, and was in
it," If Canada is annexed to the United
States, as one of the results of the fraternal
feeling engendered, | think we ought all to
feel as if we We're well repaid. The country
through which we passed was fine, and we
enjoyed the ride to its fullest extent. We
arrived at Farnham about ten o'clock and
Immediately joined the procession, of which
| saw but little and could lind out but little
more as every one spoke in an unknown
tongue" We-the procession arrived in
due course OF time at square bounded on
one side by the college buildings of the
Society of the st. Croix and on the other by
the Yamaska river. There large stand
had been erected, upon which some richly
costumed church officials were stationed,
and where some impressive ceremonies
were performed; but it was all Greek to us.
At their conclusion we marched to Proulx
Hotel, where we partook of banquet"
after which each followed the bent of his
own inclinations. Some went across the
street to a platform, where a large number
of Canadian bellies and beauxs we're " trip
ping the light fantastic" with large and
admiring audience in attendance. Among
the attractions of the day was the presenta-
ton of a silk banner to the best band in
attendance. Now it so happened that our
band was somewhat crippled, for the rea-
son that five of our best players were left
at home, viz, one solo cornet, one baritone,
one solo trombone, one bass trombone and
piccolo. We did not wish to play any concert
music without these instruments, and pro-
crastinated in order TO be too late to play at
the competition, but owing to slight
shower the bands adjourned to a hall and
as we were going to the rendezvous we met
them. &c. not to disarrange the programme,
we had to play. First came the West Farm
ham Band, which played fine selection and
retired amidst round of applause. The
band played finely, and the town may feel
honored by having such a band. Next
came the Brigade Band of st. Adams, which
took its position with that air of confidence
that seemed TO indicate where the banner
was go. Their director was Henry Hatch,
well known in northern Vermont as an &C
complished musician and gentleman.

THE success of the United States in ma

THE success of the United States in ma
terial development is the most illustrious
of modern times. The American nation
has not only successfully borne and sup
pressed the most gigantic and expensive
war Of all history but Immediately after
ward disbanded its army, found employ
ment for all its soldiers and marines, paid
off most of its debt, given labor and homes
to all the unemployed of Europe as fast as
they could arrive within its territory, and
still by a system of taxation so indirect as
not to be perceived, much less felt. Be-
cause it is my deliberate Judgment that the
prosperity of America is mainly due to its
system of protective laws, / urge that Ger
many has now reached that point where it
is necessary to initiate the tariff system of
the United States.-Bismdrcb.

made me feel tired" I soon recognized
the composition they were playing as
Faust" and was comforted, for that opera
is not considered among musicians to be AZ
pleasant as some others. The band, under
Mr.. Hatch's direction, rendered the very
long SELECTION should think the whole
actin great style. Their crescendos were
fine, their fortes immense their pianos soft
but large in volume, and among the instru-
ments the baritone was prodigious. Each
sustained his part finely. No fault could be
found, unless IL might be in the tempos, and
I don't question those much although l
thought some of them too fast to suit my taste.
Well, it then came our turn to play. We
had selected the overture to the " Poet and
Peasant" We played it once through the
evening before we left, and that was the
only time | ever saw the music until we
played there. OF course some were more
familiar with it. We started to play the
best we could with the team we had. After
we had played, the committee decided TO
leave the award of prize to a vote of the au-
dience, and a vote of hands showed an ap-
parent majority for the Montpelier Military
Band. 1t was doubted, and division OF
the house was called for. This resulted in
the banner being awarded to the Montpelier
Military Band. / was quite surprised and
pleased at the result, under the circum-
stances, although l could not judge of our
own playing as l was in the midst of the
performers. But one thing must say: the
Brigade Band of st. Adams is fine or
ganization, and its members are courteous
gentlemen of whom any town or state
might well be proud. The Montpelier
Military Band consisted of twenty-five men,
including drum major and bass drum carrier.
ST. Jean Baptiste Society numbered thirty
four men.
p. S.-Since the above was written the st.
Adams Messenger has come to hand, and
sends forth wall as II some one was disap-
pointed. The Messenger says: "The de-
csion was not made on merit or from
musical standpoint, but was simply a mat
ter of brute force. There was considerable
difficulty in obtaining competent judges,
and therefore it was suggested that the mat
ter be decided by a vote of the audience.
The Brigade Band rendered one of its finest
selections, which was highly commended by
the best musicians from Montreal who
heard it.. The Montpelier Band followed
with one much less difficult, but more noisy
and catchy The question of superior ity
was then left to show of hands, and so
closely was the apparent division that it
was decided to have division of the house.
This resulted in the awarding of the banner
to the Montpelier Band simply because there
were about $50 members OF the st. Jean
Baptiste Society from the capital to vote
against less than one-third that number
from here"
Comment is unnecessary. X.

THE suggestion has been frequently
made that the money to be derived from
the refunded direct tax be added to the
Huntington fund for the support of the
common schools. The wisdom of such
a disposition of the money we fail to
see. This $4,000 is small sum, or it
is large sum-it depends on the way
it is used whether it is the one or
the other If it is added to the Hunt
ington fund or devoted to any purpose
that involves division and scattering, it
will be small sum; if kept intact and
wisely used, it will prove decided bene-
fit to the state. Governor Page will
probably call an extra session of the
legislature to convene in the last week
of August, and the object, besides Civ
ing the national government site for
st. Adams new public building, will be,
of course, to accept the refunded direct
tax money. Nothing should be done
at that time in reference to the DISPOSE
ton of the money. 1t is due the peo-
pie of the state that they have time TO
think the subject over, so that the legis
lature of 1892 may be elected with
some reference to the final disposition
of this money. We have no doubt the
present legislature will take this view
of the case.

THE reciprocity treaty between this
country and Spain was signed on last
week Friday. 1t goes into effect on
September l. The main provision of
the treaty, it will be remembered, is
that manufactured goods and farm prod
ucts of this country will be admitted to
Cuba free in return for the privilege of
sending free sugar here. No one can
object to such a treaty as this. 1t is

A DISPATCH from Deputy-collector
Forbes, last evening, says: cover two
thousand six hundred Vermont sugar
makers have filed papers for bounty,
including the largest producers in the
state. Probably several hundred more
will be filed tonight. This comprises
nearly three-fifths of all Vermont farm
ers who make over five hundred pounds
of sugar. This result exceeds the ex-
pectations of the officers of the internal
revenue department"

TO MR.. BISHOP


There is healing in the moments
That come to us bringing rest,
There is music in loves whisper
When our hearts are sore Cypress d
And we trust some joy will linger
From this day of sunshine when
Your graduating classes
Reached the magic number ten.
Full ten times the pleasure tasted
And ten times the honor won,
We would wish you in the future,
And till life's grand work is done;
And when burdens press upon you,
And you faint, like other men,
May you think of this glad evening
When your classes numbered ten.
In the work that lies before you
At this school upon the hill,
May the blessing of the Master
Rest upon your labors still,
And in all the JOY that waits you
Guiding others to the heights,
In the midst of public service
And homes sanctified delights,
Sweeter far than singing voices,
Or the words of tongue or pen,
Be the day your classes numbered
In their growth the figures 10.

The unwilling of the statue of Henry
Ward Beecher in Brooklyn on June "a
was memorable event. The statue, a
magnificent one, does not perpetuate
the memory of a man so much as it
typifies progressive sentiment. This
monument cost S35 900, every dollar of
which was raised by popular subscrip-
ton. 1t is Americas tribute to great
intellect and a daring soul. Beecher
was neither conservative in politics
NORM the minds of some-orthodox
in religion, yet he won the esteem and
love of Nation as perhaps no other
divine ever did. This popular approval
of the great preachers work signifies,
not that the American people are devo-
tees to radicalism or admire skepticism,
but that they simply revere the memory
of one who had convictions and dared
to make them known. This statue
mutely declares that public sentiment
is broadening, and that the spirit of
political and religious liberation char
acterizes the American people as never
before. That is all.

THAT good deal of interest has been
taken in the maple-sugar bounty is evil
dent from the number of application
blanks which have been sent out by
the deputy internal revenue collector.
About 5000 blanks were furnished him
from Washington, and that number was
exhausted several days ago. The col
lector, however, authorized the state
ment that written applications would
be accepted in place of the printed
blanks. OF course large number of
these blanks were not returned, some
sugar-makers concluding not to take the
trouble to apply, and others neglecting
to forward their applications until it was
too late. Next week it will be possible

THE Nations natal day is near at
hand. The professions of horribles
and the exploits of the small boys will,
no doubt, as heretofore, furnish much
amusement. In the minds of some
staid critics this may tend to bring the
whole celebration into disrepute. But
let them remember that back of these
juvenile manifestations there are mo-
tives worthy of the patriot. Grant that
it is pre-eminently the boys day, is it
to be the less hallowed? What is the
boy but the man in embryo? Not too
often can obiect-lessons of patriotism
be impressed on those who soon are to
handle votes instead of fire-crackers.
But the old have been known to seem
younger on such occasions, and this is
not without its benefits. Then let old
and young join in celebrating the
greatest event in our national history.

SECRETARY PRoCTOR's connection
with the settlement of the direct tax
matter should be understood by every
citizen of the state. Just the nature of
it cannot perhaps be known, but the
fact of his presence in the cabinet and
his intimate acquaintance with the at
torney-general unquestionably made it
possible that the case of the state would
be promptly, fairly and clearly stated.
Had there not been some such potent
influence in Washington, we venture to
say the decision would not have come
so promptly, and possibly it would not
have been 80 favorable. The incident
illustrates the Importance to state of
utilizing in politics really able men.

Mr.. PARNELL and Mrs. O'Shea
were married on last week Thursday,
with no witnesses but two of Mrs.
O'Shea's servants. 1t was a civil mar
riage, and the registrar was told to give
out no information regarding the cere-
mony. 1t will be interesting to OBJ
serve just how much effect the mar
riage will have in restoring the Irish
leader to his position at the head of
the whole home-rule party. A simple
formality is often a powerful balm to
some wounded consciences. 1t is re-
ported that religious ceremony is to
follow the civil marriage for the pur-
pose of satisfying Catholics.

SIXTY delegates from the tin-plate
makers of Wales are to come to this
country to see what the prospect for
profitable employment here is. If their
report is encouraging, an exodus of the
Welch workmen may be looked for.
All that is needed here to make this the
great tin-plate producing country of the
world is skilled workmen. Under pro-
lection such workmen would be devel-
oped in the course of time from our
own citizens; but it will, of course, be
an advantage to have the instruction of
men who have been in the business for
years.
THE WATCHMAN heartily endorses
the following from the Vergennes Yer
monter: "What the people of Yer
mont have right to expect of Governor
Page is the appointment TO the United
States senate of man in the full vigor
of manhood, with abundant brain-force
and physical makeup to match-a
man who will represent the whole peo-
pie of the state, and who will maintain
the high position the state now holds
in the national council. Vermont has
few representatives in Washington,
audit is quite essential that these should
be of the first order"
