Canada is il q bad fix she wants to ex
ercise all the powers and functions OF an
independent government, but cannot
while she is dependency of England
and, in this, lays all the indifference Of
the United States to annexation, all that
part Of the people Of Canada who favor
annexation to to this country, is the party,
which would, if could, cut loose forever
from British suzerainty. On the
other hand, the scions Of Royalty
who have grown gray and fattened
on Canadian officials spells, still
cling to the Queens apron strings, and
oppose annexation. The consequence
is, that our government does not regard
the acquisition as profitable or desirable
If Great Britain is 10 be consulted about
the matter, but will let annexation alone
till the fruit gets ripe enough to fall IN tc
our hands unsought, and as a matter o.
necessity.

IN WHITE RIVER VALLEY.

Rochester village school district
has just adopted the graded school
system, and will take rank accord
ingly among the progressive villages
of the state. Surprising as it may
seem, the proposal to take this step
was vigorously opposed by some of
the older settlers, who thought the
ways of their fathers was good
enough for them; but the Young and
more enterprising blood prevailed,
and the village is likely to reap con-
siderab bic benefit from this move in a
right direction.
The Fall Mountain Paper compa-
ny of Bellows Falls, who have just
laid out a large amount of money in
clearing White river for log-foating
purposes, find themselves still short
of water in the branch running up
through West Rochester, and will
now lay out more cash in the build
ing of large reservoirs from which,
at the proper season, the water may
be let out in sufficient quantities to
hurry the logs down stream. Avast
amount of timber is to be cut in that
locality the present season, and it
looks a. though the corporation in
question had big job on hand in
converting White river into a
practicable highway for logs.
Either the potato bugs are little
lazy thus far this season, or the
farmers are taking extra fine care OF
the plants, for potatoes all along the
valley are looking remarkably
| healthy

The latest scheme in fast railroad
ing is thus limited at by the American
CultivatOr: THE coming transit
must be electric, and a plan, which is
undoubtedly one typical of a gigantic
revolution in our mode Of travelling,
is heralded, for an electric line be-
tween Chicago and St. Louis. The
track is to follow an air line, and the
train is to be run at speed Of 100
miles an hour, making the journey in
212 hours, as contrasting with the
present S12 hours consumed. The
road is to be completed in '93, by the
time of the opening of the Worlds
Fair. The cost of the road will be
$6,OOO,OOO, and the round trip fares
placed at SIS. The train is to do
away with a conductor. The ticket
bought in Chicago is surrendered to
the agent in St. Louis on leaving the
train"

THE SLAUGHTER OF TROUT.

A short time ago the CALIFORNIAN
copied and commented on a state
ment that the Vermont Fish and
Game league were prosecuting lnd1-
viduals in certain parts OF the state
for violations of the six-inch clause as
relating to trout. But these prose
cutions, so far as have been reported,
touch but small part of the state;
andlthe inefficient manner IN which the
law is enforced throughout the state
as whole, the utter neglect to pay
the least attention to its enforce
ment in many towns, and the SEEM
ing impossibility of securing due re-
spect for it on the part Ofhshermen-
make it more and more evident that
that particular clause in the law is
farce which should receive some at
tention at the hands of the next
legislature.
What the CALIFORNIAN insisted on
some time ago was that such law
the statute book, unless special and
effective provision was made at the
same time for its enforcement in every
town in the state. The Vermont
Fish and Game league can do some
thing towards this, but it cannot
cover the whole territory, and
should not be expected to. That
there was no effective provision made
for enforcing this law has been proved
over and over again. Only the other
day the writer was told, on good
authority, OF mile-and-a-haH strip
of brook among the mountains from
which over one thousand trout were
taken within a recent week-and no
pains were taken to measure the fish.
This is all wrong, and does not
engender confidence in the present
legal method of protecting trout.

RAILROAD NEWS.

DR.. VIM. Seward Webb has been
chosen director of the Boston &
Maine, to succeed the late Jas. T.
Furber. The other directors were
reelected. 1t was voted without
opposition to issue bonds to an
amount not exceeding 100000
for the purpose of refunding the debt
and improving all the equipments
and the leased lines.
"The new rules are pretty strict"
said a Boston and Maine trainman
the other day when questioned as to
how he liked the radical change
which went into effect June Goth;
land they put a good deal Of re-
sponsibilitv on to the engineers and
conductors. But guess they are all
right-or will be when we get them
learned" The new rules are very ex-
plicit. and set out every trainman's
duty in the fullest detail.
The Massachusetts legislature has
enacted an interchangeable mileage
ticket law which goes into effect
October 1. 1t provides for the issu-
ing of 1000 mile tickets, which shall
be sold for $50, and shall be good on
every railroad in the state. This
looks very convenient and useful for
the travelling public but one section
of the law provides a loophole of
escape for the roads by giving the
railroad commissioner the authority
to exempt any road from compliance
with the law IF IN their judgment
condition of the road require or de-
mand it."

TWO CONVENTIONS.

Two more political conventions
have just been held, and presidential
candidates placed in nomination by
each. The prohibitionists, in session
at Cincinnati, have chosen John c.
Bidwell OF California as their leader,
with J. B. Cranfill of Texas in the
second place The platform adopted
declares for the general suppression
of the liquor traffic and has, as was
to be expected, decided temperance
tint to it. This convention is sup
posed to represent that portion of
the temperance people of the United
States who would operate through
a party of their OWN The funda-
mental principle involved is an ex-
cellent one, but the wisdom of the
adoption of the third party method
of carrying that principle to a prac-
teal and successful issue is not clear
to a great majority Of the voters.
So far as the convention did repre-
sent genuine temperance sentiment 1T
is entitled to respect.
At Omaha, on the Fourth of July
the convention of the so-called 'peo-
pies partv"-a party conspicuous
mainly for its lack of hold on the
people-nominated Gen. James B.
Weaver of Iowa as its standard
bearer. An attempt was made to
draw Judge Gresham into the net,
but that gentleman wisely declined.
The platform of this peoples party
draws a doleful picture of the coun-
trv's condition, and calls for free sill
yer, graduated income tax, govern
ment control of the railroad, tele-
graph and telephone systems, and
other things too numerous to men
ton. The peoples party takes on
up to date, the semblance of a farce
and the gathering at Omaha car
hardly be looked upon as represent
ing MANY voters outside of those
who made up the convention. Gen
Weaver was prominent as a green
hacker in years gone by, and vii
prove a weak leader.

There is nothing like an early posses
sion of the field"
The Manchester Mirror, answering
the question. "Who is Stevenson,
says he is the chap who. while con-
nected with the postal department
under Cleveland, issued circular to
about 10000 democrats who
wanted to be fourth class post
masters, advising them to hang
around the republicans who held the
Offices and get them to say something
against Cleveland or his administra-
ton and report their words to him,
in order that he might have an ex
cuse for deciding that they were Of
fensive partisans and removing
them"

Harrison and Reid" flags have al
ready been flung to the breeze in
many of the smaller towns in the
state, and the larger villages should
not be far behind in showing their
political colors.
Gen" Stevenson's record, both
financial and war; is being pretty
thoroughly shown up, and the dis
play is not likely to make votes for
him.
