OUR OWN PRESIDENT.

That President Harrison has the true
American spirit, and that no citizen of
the Union can fail to acknowledge a
sense of pride in his manly, simple, yet
dignified bearing all through his present
trip, is now acknowledged by all news
papers of the land. The following in
cident is in the same line of advantage:
"Soon after leaving Ell Paso, Texas, the
appearance of train robbers on the stage
coaches near Yuma, ahead, caused some
little fear, and it is stated that the presi-
dent was offered a guard of ten soldiers
at Houston to cross the plains and desert,
but this he refused, saying that he want
ed .an. soldier guard, and that he was not
afsid to travel anywhere in the United
Staes as private citizen. At Tucson,
Bowie and Yuma the offer was again
renewed, but as often refused, and the
president and his party went through
with an extra lookout in the baggage
carr Spoken like an American.

MAY THE LEAGUE WIN.

1t is broadly intimated that the Louis
lana Lottery company purchased last
week, for valuable consideration, the
supreme court of that state. The situ-
alton is, briefly, as follows: The expir-
ing charter of the lottery company is a
part of the state constitution, and after
hot fight the last state legislature pro-
posed an amendment renewing its
charter. This was vetoed by Gov. Mich
OILS, and powerless to pass the measure
over his veto, the claim was promptly
raised by the lottery people that the
governors signature was not necessary.
The state secretary refused to promul-
gate the amendment, so the people could
not vote upon it, and his refusal was
sustained by Judge Buckner Of the lower
court. This ruling has now been set
aside and by order of the supreme court
the secretary must submit to its con-
struction of his duties. so the measure
will go before the people for final action.
But the end is not yet. The long and
bitter fight, beginning in the legislature
and reaching to every nook and corner
of the +" Creole" state; the accredited
lavish use of money by the lottery COM
pany in carrying its points all through
the varying stages of the game; the ire
mendous bribes offered as an equivalent
for concession to it's demands; and lastly,
the national refusal to admit lottery
matter to its mails, have certainly fixed
upon the Louisiana Lottery company an
onus in the minds of Louisianas best
citizens, which has grown with the dis
cussion. AS a result there is in Louis
lana to-day an anti-slavery league which
hopes yet to win the fight.
They are battling against tremendous
odds. On the one side monstrous vam-
pire, grown powerful from a quarter
century's undisturbed absorption of the
small earnings of the nation, and dis
posed to sacrifice stupendous sums to
prolong its. life; unscrupulous and au-
dacious, withal. On the other, simply a
public sentiment, viewing in the lottery's
success menace to individual integrity,
and moral blight upon honor and its
states credit. Light weapons, these,
but such sometimes win. The country
is looking at Louisiana, and praying for
decisive victory of right over might.

Vermont at Cincinnati.
TFrom News and Citizen.

Vermont returns from the convention
of the National Republican league at
Cincinnati laden with honors. Judge j.
M. Thurston of Nebraska, a Vermont
boy, retired from the craftsmanship of
that body with honor. His opening
address is pronounced one of the best
speeches of the convention. He is a
man of excellent executive ability and
fine oratorical powers. The honor of
delivering the speech in response to the
address of welcome was accorded to our
own distinguished son, Hon. III. Fl. Pow
ers, who, it is hardly necessary to say,
performed the duties imposed upon him
in such manner as TO add new honors
to Vermont, and to further the fast
growing impression that Vermont's rep
resentative from the first district, in the
5lst congress, will early take front rank
in that body. In his address the judge
said, among other things, that the league
gathering was not body to nominate
men for office, but to provide way to
elect them after their nomination. He
referred them with approval to the rul-
ings of Speaker Reed, saying that he
found a way to make the deaf hear and
the dumb speak. Referring to the New
Orleans incident he declared that the
time had come when our doors should be
closed to emigrants who could not show
an honest purpose to become useful aud
Obedient citizens.

THINK FOR YOURSELVES, MEN.

With May comes the annual crop Of
strikes in various parts of the country.
The ubiquitous labor agitator packs his
grip, orders his carriage and buys his
seat in parlor car to travel up and down
the face of the earth, telling the vast
army OF industrious workingmen how
they are ground down and how easily
they can right these wrongs by simply
organizing and demanding concession to
their claims. The seed is sown. The
worthless few, to be found in every large
body of laborers, eagerly catch the
theme, crowd to the front and arrange
details, and presto. 100 or 200 men
quit work, cut off the source of supply to
homes that must suffer the loss, loaf
about in idleness or worse, and perhaps
go back to work under harder conditions
than before.
The story is an old one but its lesson
seems still unlearned. Poor laborer.
Not to see through the thin veil thrown
over the smooth-talking apostle of labor
reform; not to recognize the great truth
that for happy results labor and capital
must depend on each other, and differ
ences must be adjusted directly between
parties concerned; not to appreciate the
salutary effect that a well-directed kick
by heavily shod foot would have upon
the apostle aforesaid.
From an experience of more than 1e
years in the various branches of his bus

TRICKS IN THE TRADE.

The New York Press comments on the
Democratic newspaper structures on Re-
publican rule as applied to national
finance, in the following plain language
1t is a cold day when our brethren of the oppo.
sition do not discover some overwhelming i'm.
pending calamity" about to befall the country
on account of a Republican administration of
national affairs. Unfortunately for their credit
as prophets the calamities never occur. From
1860, when they predicted the dissolution of the
Uni n as the certain result Of the election of a
Republican president, down to the present time,
their aspiring prophecies have proven mere
".croakings" of disappointed and disgruntled
elements. The latest calamity which Is recorded
and prated about is the silliest of all. There is
according to official statements, $75l 0t 1000 in
the treasury, of which alarge part is trust money
as, for instance, $493 900 900 OF gold and silver
which certificates are issued-but s25s, 900 OOO
belongs to the government absolutely. and is
available to meet its obligations. Our calamity
available in treasury at various sums, ranging
from $40 900 to 800, 100000, and 1t is singu
larly confounding feature of their croaking that
no two of them presen. the same figures.
Probably the most complete refutation
of the doleful outlook quoted above is
the open and frank position taken by Sec
retary Foster in considering the actual
condition of the country's finances.
Nothing could be palmer than his state
ment, and if his idea of floating two per
cents in place of the four and one-half
per cents, is practical, as he seems con-
tident, the most positive proof possible
will be afforded that the national credit
is safe and that public confidence rests
firmly with the Republican policy.

against any one concerned in the killing
of the Italians, as the city is practically
unanimous in endorsing the action of the

Here is thought for our high license
friends to consider. 1t is from the St.

it not be we'll to have the law against

By recent dispatches from Washing
ton, it now appears that the true secret
of Baron Fava's recall by the Italian gov
ernment was his penurious style of resi-
dence in Washington. With salary of
$4,000 annually, the Baron has managed
to scrub along on about $1,000 to $500,
and is reported to belong to that class of
cads who unfailingly accept invitations
to receptions and dinners, but who never
return such courtesies. A sort of dona-

their summer vacation. 1t is modestly
compiled and we'll illustrated, and every
Vermonter should see that copy is
placed in the hands of his city cousins.
This is the first organized effort we re-
member to have noticed to induce the

ward Vermont, and it should receive a
hearty support by all well wishers of the
