MASON RELEASED.

Alexander Mason of Milton, who was
brought from Ticonderoga to Middlebury
a week ago last Sunday and placed in
Jail to await examination on the charge
of having murdered Capt. John jackson
of the schooner James Averill. has been
set at liberty. The body of jackson was
discovered in the lake near Chimney
Point on Friday by the pilot of the
steamer Vermont. The inquest was held,
with the result stated in the following
death certificate signed by the magistrate
who presided;
The body of Captain John Jackson
was recovered Friday, August Z, at CHM
ney Point, and an examination was made
by Doctors c. B. Warner and A. G. Gro
yer of Port Henry, n. Y. At the inquest
held before me six witnesses were ex-
amined as to the mans condition on the
night when he was last seen alive and
the verdict of the jury is that the said
Jackson came to his death by drowning
from his own carelessness, being at the
time intoxicated.
The body of Jackson was taken to Bur-
lington on Saturday and buried in Lake
View cemetery.

Another of the noted newspaper men
died at Poland Springs, Me-, on Wednes-
day-George Jones of the New York
Times. He was born seventy-nine years
ago at Poultney, where his father had
settled on coming to America from
Wales. 1t was at that place he met
Horace Greeley, his friend for half CEN
tury. Mr.. Jones and Henry j. Raymond
founded the New York Times in 1857 and
the former was its chief proprietor at his
death. Mr.. Raymond, by the way, was
almost Nermonter, too, having received
his education at the university in Bur-
lington, though he came from Lima, n.

NOT THE POINT.

Friends of the Mckinley bill find lots
of comfort in the admissions of the Eng
lish newspapers that the effect of the bill
has been to damage England's export
trade with the United States. The st.
James Gazette. for instance, SAYS that
'the great decline in the exports from
Great Britain is undoubtedly due to the
operation of the Mckinley law in the
United States. We have been told that
that act would eventually prove real
misfortune to the United States, but its
immediate object was to hit foreign man
ufactures, especially those of Great Brit
ain, and it is plainly evident that this OBJ
iect has been attained"
These statements are interesting, but
they do not cover the point of chief sig
nificance to Americans. 1t practically
doesn't matter particle to us whether
English manufactures are depressed or
stimulated by the Mckinley bill or other
tariff legislation we may enact. The
thing advocates of the protective policy
need to know and will be required to
prove in the campaigns of next year is,
whether the Mckinley has benefited the
people of this country as a whole. Pre-
sumably it has, but it wont do to assume
that because England suffers from it we
gain by it,

says:
OF course the giving out in this way
by Gov. Page of these letters-the most
important Endorsement of Proctor re-
ceived and an answer of the kinds
significant. 1t must be taken as very
decided intimation that Secretary Proc

But it hasn't required great insight to
discover other "signiticant" things in
the conduct of the governor. all point
ing in the same direction, the ultimate
appointment of Mr.. Proctor. But it
ought not to be necessary for the
governor thus to fortify himself by

of anybody else. If he believes Mr.. Proc
tor is the most suitable man for the
place, he should appoint him by all
means and then let the future take care

dorsements prior TO the appointment
may lead critical persons to lnsinuate
that he desires and intends to do some-
thing of which way down in his boots he
is ashamed or that he fears will not re-

American farmers have the drop on
the whole world in the matter of grain,
according to the London Daily News. In
Germany the scarcity of rye-the prin-
cipal food of the poorer classes-leads
the radicals to strong efforts for the alb
olition of the duty on it; the ruler of the
Russias has forbidden the export of
rye from his dominions, and in England
the grain crop is short. But the latter
fact is always true to greater or less
extent, the country producing, even in a
good year, only enough to feed its people
three months; but the situation is made
worse by the failure of the wheat crop
