A few months ago ex-Gov. John w.
Stewart was drawing a salary of $4,000 a
year as member of Congress. Now he
is earning salary of $l5 year as third
selectman of the town of Middlebury.
The people know Gov. Stewart as a plain,
practical man of affairs as well an emf
nent lawyer and publicist. After receiv-
ing nearly all the honors the State could
bestow upon him. he is to be admired
that in his retirement from public Office
he again mingles with his fellow towns

pal affairs and aiding them from the
storehouse of his wide observation and
ripe experience. Such men should be ap-
precated at home and honored aboard

smokeless powders. But these COM
pounds, while they answer admirably
for the propulsion of shot, are too quick,
especially if compressed, for propeling
balls. What our government is after,
then, 1t not the discovery of smOkeless
powder, but an Improvement on dis
coveries already made to adapt it to
rifles. The Schultze and the American
wood powders are made of saw-dust
from which the resin has been extracted /;
the dust is then treated with acids, and
washed and dried. The base of "E. c.
powder is cotton fibre, which is treated
with acids and then rolled into little pei
lets and colored pink. 1t is to all intents
and purposes granulated gun cotton.
Schultze powder is nearly white in
color; American wood is dirt brown.
Nor are so-called smokeless powders
really smokeless. Smoke follows fire in
them as in common powder, but not to
the same extent. Bulk for bulk one of
these powders weighs almost exactly
equal quantity by measure is as effective
as black powder; in other words, an
ounce of smokeless powder is as strong
as two ounces of black Now 65 per
cent of the weight of black powder is
blown out of the gun unconsumcd, that
is, as smoke; while of smokeless powders
the residue is about 80 per cent of the
weight. Consequently, as it takes but
half the weight of smokeless powder to
do the work, the unburned portion that
forms the smoke is but half the 80 per
cent, or 10, as against the 50 per cent of
the black, or less than one-quarter. That
is all there is of the smokeless quality of
such powders.

Postmaster General Wanamaker is still
a red-hot advocate of the establishment
of free delivery of mail matter in the

THE RESOURCES OF VERMONT.

The board of agriculture proposes to
issue a pamphlet the present season
which will be largely devoted to adver-
tising Vermont property.
1t is expected that about 10000 copies
will be published and circulated. Farms,
mills, water powers, quarries and sum-
mer resorts will be given place in the
work, and especially cheap farms, or
farms adapted for summer homes, and
mills, etc., that need building up and ad-
ded capital, that are now for sale at a
low price. High priced farms and hous-
es that are now doing profitable busi-
ness are not within the scope of our
work.
Persons owning property of the class
es mentioned, which they wish to dis
pose of. are requested to send descrip-
ton to the board previous to April 10.
Those desiring TO advertise farms will,
on application, be furnished with blanks
for making description. All advertise
ments must contain price of property
and terms of payment. A charge of two
cents per word will be made on all ad-
vertisements, and this must accompany
the description. No advertisement shall
contain over 200 words, and none will he
inserted for less than 81. This charge is
necessary in order TO supplement the
limited fund at the disposal of the board,
to carry out the plan. 1t covers about
one-third of the actual expense. A liml-
ted number of short descriptive articles
of localities possessing peculiar advan-
tages for any industry will be inserted.
The board Will reserve the right to re-
iect any matter furnished, and if reject
ed will return fee. The board will not
undertake to conduct sales, and no com
mission or fee will be charged except
for inserting advertisement.
Persons desiring to make use of this
opportunity will please attend to it at
once, as this notice will not appear again.

The PhOnograph, printed in Lake City,

a criticism of the REGISTERS remarks on
Senator Morrill's recent speech on the
silver question. OF course the Senator's
arguments are pulyerized and the neces-
sity for free coinage clearly established,
at least to the satisfaction of the Phono-
graph editor. But life is too sh )rt to ad-
nit of our discussing the question fur
ther. The people of the mining States
look upon free coinage about as Addison
county folk would upon proposition to
make Merino rams legal tender, and with
the same degree OF unseltishness.

Some of the brethren of the press who
talk about the governments experiments
in search Of smokeless powder do not seem
to be aware that there are already IN
successful use explosives of this descrip-
tion. The problem is not to find a
smokeless powder, but to get one that
will give certain and uniform results in
rifles. These powders are largely used
by sportsmen in shot guns. The
Schultze powder has been made in eng.
land for nearly 20 years, aid that and
the "E. c." have nearly superseded the

reported him somewhat easier. The cri-

age, there seems but little reason to hope
that he can survive the attack.

HE'S A WINNER.

Hon. JOHN o. PENDLEToN's renOmina-
ton by accIamatiou at New Martins
willie was foregoue conclusion and is
deserving tribute to an honest and able
public servant as well as a recognition
by the party Of the worth of vigorous
aud shoulder-hittlug Democrat
The Democrats Of the First district
have doue themselves honor and made
the party solid from Hancock to BraX-
ton by houorlng in so emphatic maui
ner a representative Of the young
Democracy, who has been tried and
proven not only by the standard OF
practical public service but by the cru
clal test Of two Of the hardest fought
campaigns in the political history of the
district, both of which be won against
the heaviest odds and the strongest
men his opponents could put up.
Young Mr.. PENDLETON," rs our Re-
publican friends have probably become
tired Of calling him, is a fighter from
the ground up. He is usually willing
% give odds for the sake OF having a
set-to. And Mr.. PENDLEroN is aSaOie
aud honestin the performance of his
duty. and as true TO his friends and con-
stituents as he is fearless and hard-hit-
ting on the political stump.
AN the world admires q fighter and
the whole Demo crazy Of the First West
Virginia district will support its twice
chosen representative with the enthu-
slasm, which bravery and ability always
inspire.
