The Chinese Exclusion BILL which passed
the House on Monday. WILL If It becomes
law Ivy the concurrence OF the Senate and the
approval Of the President, act as a permanent
barrier to the influx of Chinese population
into this country. Under the provisions OF
this measure the exclusion extends even to
individuals arriving sngly. and it virtually
makes the nited States tabooed land TO
the Chinaman. and as difficult OF entrance as
the circle Immediately surrounding the North
Pole. Harsh as the measure seems from an
international point of view It is undoubtedly
founded upon Just appreciation OK all the
peculiar circumstances Of the case. The adj
mission Of Cinnamon as an element Of our
population is desirable from no point of view
whatever. Already Australia. which has
adopted the traditional liberal policy OF Ing
land with reference 10 granting citizenship 10
foreigners, has been compelled to enact a law
as strict as the measure which mas just re
ceiyed the approval OF the House. The next
step on the part of our Government should be
10 enforce II careful and rigid discrimination
in the administration OF an Immigration law
which relates to Europeans alone.

Celebrating tho Fall OF Richmond.
Editor of the T.noas

On the question IF white teachers for negro

have SAID Oh tho subject. merely because i
deemed It proper for the negroo. to have
teachers OF their own race. but not at all that
they had any actual rights In the matter NJ
they paid hardly any taxes.
l confess, however that if they wish 10
continue 10 have the friendship of those
whites who wish 10 help them on in the
race OF life. it Is now about time that they
stop exulting over the Il all OF Richmond

10 our white population and one when many
OF them were reduced to poverty lpra,ume
that no ialr-minded person objects 10 their

questions your paper has taken liberal
view, so | would like 10 hear you on this one.

hold precinct meetings on the sly and send
Hill delegates 70 county convention to be
held at the courthouse on the 9Th instant.
the Hill men would have realized their boast
that not "a single opposition delegate would
be elected in the entire county. As it Is. the
short notice given by this paper last Thursday
enabled the voters 10 overcome the
machine 10 the extent of electing very
considerable proportion Of the delegates t.
the Courthouse Convention. This will not
suffice to express popular sentiment in the
county. however, and twenty-one machine
delegates will probably be elected to-
day to the State Convention. What
has been accomplished in lIenrico, how

and warning to other counties ia the

PRESIDENTIAL.

Senator Quay and some of his fol-
lowers who have been opposed to
the renomina ton of President Harri-
son at Minneapolis have had their
eyes opened by the constructions"
which most of the recent republican
state conventions have issued, and
are now said to have little or no
hope of heading off the tide which
has been setting Harrisonward for
the past few weeks. Unless the I'M
expected happens-as is sometimes
the case IN politics-the present occu
pant of the White house WILL win
second term easily. There is, to be
sure, in certain Western States,
division of sentiment between Harri-
son and Blaine, and this in spite of
the latter's decisive letter of with
drawal. The 'plumed knight" has
many admirers who want to see
him nominated; but the mass OF re-
publicans have taken him at his
word and consider him out of the
race. Some preference is also shown
for Sherman; but the great prepon-
derance of sentiment is at present
for Harrison.
AS for the democratic national
ticket, Vermont still clings to Cleve-
land, and her delegates will vote for
him if he is in the field when the con-
vention meets. Unless he absolutely
refuses to stand, it looks now like
Harrison and Cleveland as the lead
ers in the fight.

AN EXTENSIVE STRIKE.

The trouble among the granite
men, which began recently, has de-
veloped into an extensive affair, and
now amounts to a strike on the part
of the workmen and lockout on the
part of the manufacturers. The
whole difficulty springs from differ
ence of opinion as to the time OF
year when a new schedule of prices
should be made by the manufacturers.
The latter insist that January 1
should be the date for fixing a
schedule which shall continue in force
during the year. The wOrkmen
claim, however, that this is manifest
" unfair to them, as business is
usually dull at that time of year,
and there is no justice in asking them
to work throughout the entire year
on schedule of wages fixed on the
basis of dull business They de-
mand that some other date be chosen
that will ensure schedule based on
a fairly lively condition of business,
and their choice would be May LIST.
To this the manufacturers demur,
and a general lockout has been or
dered, thro winglthousands of granite
cutters, polishers and tool sharpen
ers into idleness. At present writing
there seems to be no immediate pros
pect of an amicable arrangement of
the difficulty, and the situation of
the granite industry is serious one.
Large and important contracts all
over the country are interfered with,
and the business is literally paralyzed.
Such condition of things is to be
deplored, and it is to be hoped that
means will be taken to compromise
ma tiers on basis that will ensure
justice to both workingmen and en-
ployers. The suspension of so great
an industry, even for a short time,
means large loss to both parties to
the controversy.

VERMONT PERSONALS.

Ex-Senat tor Edmunds was guest
of the Union League club of Phila-
delphia at its banquet on Grant S
rthday. He was presented to the
gathering by John Russell Young, ex-
minister to China, las the closest
and ablest counselor that General
Grant had during his occupancy OF
the White House.
The literary contributor to the
Boston Journal says that Rudyard
Kipling will spend the summer in
Samoa with Robert Louis Steven
son, returning to America in the au-
tumn. 1T is his intention to spend
the fall in travel through the coun-
try, and next winter he will perma-
nently settle in New York city, spend
ing a part of the summer at the old
home of his wife and her family at
Montpelier, VT" If Mr.. Box had
substituted Brattleboro for Mont
pelier he would have been nearer
correct. Vermonters, however, do
not take kindly to this literary prod
ICY after his scathing letter on the
Green Mountain state.

POLITICAL POINTS.

One of the they says" includes the
retirement of Col. Hooker from his
place as the Vermont member of the
national republican committee and
the appearance of Col. Geo. T. Childs
of St. Adams and M. S. Colburn of
Manchester as candidates for that
honor.
The West Randolph Herald re-
marks that "our congressman Gen.
Grout has we'll earned the unanimous
renomina tion that awaits him. He
has proved faithful, hard working,
conscientious congressman.
1t is claimed that w. E. Johnson of
Woodstock is going to the state con-
back to urge his nomination for
governor. Next.
Quoth Gov. Mckinley: ''Mr. Harri-
son will be nominated by the Min
neapolis convention, and there is no
reason to doubt his reelection"
After many days, the Bennington
Banner has finally ventured an opin-
ion on the governor question, and
decides that it can support Col. Full
Ter.
The great rivers of the West and
South have been the source of much
anxiety and peril during the past
week. Especially along the lines of
the Mississippi and the Missouri has
the high water wrought serious
havoc. Fields have been flooded,
buildings swept away, crops destroy
ed, railway communication and
manufacturing enterprises interfered
with, entailing- large loss. In some
sections the rain has been more
severe than for 2Oyears past. These
are visitations with which the
Eastern people are comparatively I'M
familiar, but the widespread destruc-
ton and heavy losses to Western
farmers and manufacturers will elicit
a sincere sympathy from all other
portions of the country.
