The Vermont Crops.

The weather conditions over the
greater part of the Otter Creek and the
Battenkill valley during the past ten
days have been very favorable for all
farming interests. Over western Yer
mont the normal temperature conditions
and the bright weather have given late
crops and fruits a vigorous growth,
while checking the spread of the potato
blight and rot, which had developed to a
small extent in various localities. All
root crops are generally reported to be
in excellent condition. The oat crop is
now secured in the valleys in excellent
condition for threshing. There is prom

of previous weeks, many farmers report

Vermont Commandery, No, A, X. T.,
returned from Bennington, Thursday af-
ternoon of last week, having had an en-
joyable trip. The journey was made in
two Wagner sleeping cars, which served
as headquarters while. in Bennington.
The Commandery, headed by Meachamis
drum corps, appeared in the great pro-
cession, the 10th, with full ranks, and
enjoyed the. distinction of having the
largest number of men in uniform in
line of any Templar organization. The
handsome marching and knightly bear
ing of the men were highly compll-
mented, and Commandery and drum
corps were frequently applauded be
cause of their fine appearance. After
the parade.the Sir Knights were royalty
lunched by their fratreS of Taft Com

supper were handsomely provided by
Capt. G. C. Bates of Co. F, of North

assistants at the mess tents, Messrs.
Cornelius Simonds and Edward ingalls,
and Mrs. Roswell Adams, the Com
mandery is indebted for many courtesies.
Returning home, a stop was made at
Rutland until Thursday afternoon, with
headquarters at the Bardwell House, the
waiting hours being fully occupied with
visiting the Howe Scale Works, the mar
BILE quarries at West Rutland, and other
places of interest-Taken all in all the
excursion was especially pleasant, and
can be recorded as embracing two of the
red-letter days in the history of the Com
mandery. While in Rutland, the drum
corps serenaded the Herald office.
Others were also remembered by Leader
Meacham and his boys, who were the
recipients of many attentions from all.

get little sympathy from its confrcres in
the Democracy, while uttering the fol-
lowing sentiments: 1.-THE genius of free
coinage is reputation. This explains
why certain debtor States are in favor of
it, and every creditor State is Supposed to
it. AS we have before shown, man
with 81, 800, or thereabouts, in silver bull
lion under free coinage could discharge
an obligation of $4,000 The simple
enactment Of law practically puts
$50, 800 in his pocket. This may be very
nice; but it takes like amount out Of
somebody else's pocket. There's the
rub. Money is not evolved from moth
ing. In reality, the $500 which the
debtor saves is robbed from the creditor;
he suffers from the dishonest act of re-
pudiation." This,is the question stated
and answered in ''nut she'll" Accord

PINE COUNTY Psomeer:: The
Pioneer a few weeks ago spoke Of
the many outrages that have been
perpetrated by the deputies Of the
United States marshal in the name
of justice, but which in fact are
injustices. One Of the most pro
llfic evils of the present system Of
handling cases in the United
States courts is the manner in
which cases ale worked up by
these deputies against people
charged with selling liquor to In
dams. The deputy marshals draw
their pay in the shape of fees COM
puted in accordance with the work
done and the miles travelled, and in
many cases it looks as though the
arrest of men charged with selling
liquor to Indians and the conse-
quent summoning of horde Of
Indian witnesses is done to swell
the receipts of the office Of the
deputy marshals.

MAJOR SHULER, the Indian agent
at White Earth, has solved the
vexed Indian question to his COM
plete satisfaction. Here is what
he recommends:
Give to each Indian quarter of a
section of land and surround him with
white men. Place white men upon the
other three quarters. Let the Indians
go to the same schools with the white
children. Let them mix together in
these schools. 49,,
Why not locate the Indians in
Minneapolis where the school
facilities are better than in the
''rural districts?' The ''poor white
trash' on the frontier are not fit
associates for the noble red men.
Let the mixing be done among the
gallant majors aristocratic friends

they received in the old country.

If we were a betting man, here
is the way we would bet on the
result of next Tuesdays elections.
On Fassett in New York, on Nc
Kinley in Ohio, and on Boies in
Iowa. It does not seem possible
that the voters of New York will
endorse Tammany Hall by elect
ing Flower governor. Mckinley
is personally very popular in Ohio,
and he is receiving the solid sup
port of his party; Campbell has
incurred the enmity of faction of
the Cincinnati Democrats. IF Nc
Kinley is defeated it will be owing
to the third party vote. In Iowa
the Republican nominee for gov
ernor, Wheeler has not opened, his
mouth since the campaign com
menced; Boies has spoken in al
most every town Of Importance in
the State and is making a rustling
canvass. The Prohibitionists are
generally supporting Wheeler,
and the ungodly anti Prohibitions
lists are fighting under the Boies
banner. The election will be close,
but it looks as if the chances we're
in Boies' favor.
