No small degree Of interest has been added
to the situation at Homestead by the arrest
OF tho chairman and four members Of the
advisory committee Of the strikers on the
charge Of treason against tie State. The
strikers had no warning OF this step and it
came 20 them like thunderbolt. The war
rants were issued by Chief Justice Paxon
of tbe State supreme Court. and
the charge OF treason wss preferred against

From the TroyTimes.l

One OF the oldest buildings in Rutland
and in the State OF Vermont is the gambrel-
rooted building on West street. 1t was the
county house from 1884 to 1872, and the
ceutre Of historical scenes Of the olden times
The building was putup in the iOs and when
it was taken first as the County Court house
had only two rooms. The west one was the
court room and the other, which had no
floor, was used as a grand and petit jury
room, as we'll as a side room for the judges
OF the old courts. The first United States
District Court ever held in Vermont had its
session there in 1891, with Nathaniel Chip
man as the judge and Frederick Hill as the
clerk. The State Legislature met there in
October, 1854 and 1856 and the Louise was
under the control OF tho anti-court mob in
November, 1886, IN 1872 the old house
was abandoned for one moro pretentious on
Main street, the funds for tho completion Of
which were furnished by voluntary sub
scripuon,N The new building was Of wood,
and for time served tho uses OF the county
law enforcers, but in 1865 it was burned to
the ground, and the court met for several
years, until the new building was completed,
in private houses and in the Young Mems
Christian association rooms. The old build
ing, left alone in its glory, was soon utilized
as q residence, and as such is still doing
service. 1t is as substantial in its appear
ance as the majority OF houses Of new Rut-
land

somewhat formidable title, but the orCaniz-
alton itself must be q diminutive affair, juds-
ing from its Indications OF size and Lie
Mr.. c. s Louis Of South Reading the sec
rotary Of the assoc alton, says that the e.
lance recently held a meeting and selected
a list of presidential electors, and that copies
Of this ticket will be distributed among all
the alliance men in tie State, u would be
interesting TO know just where this meeting
WAS held and how many attended. 1t is pos
sible, however, that the secretary is the Pooh
Bah of the alliance and lie accustomed TO flock
all by bimsolG. 80 this as it may, the
chances are that the alliance does not cou-
tain a sufficient number of citizens to form
an elcctora! ticket.

The death of MIR. Hiram Atkins, which
is announced elsewhere in these columns
removes a man we'll known throughout tho
State. Mr.. Atkins had been prominent in
Vermont politics for many years, and
through bis own strong personality and tho
influence Of his newspaper he welded no
little power hmoNg the Vermont democrats
having been chairman Of their State COM
mittae about 20 years. Io dispensed the
federal patronage in this State during
Cleveand's administration and the trouble
which followed the resulting differences in
the party undoubtedly hastonod his deeth.
The pathetic scene which attended the an
uouneement OF his wifes death during
the progress of tho lest democratic State
convention Will rot soon be forgotten BY
these who were present 1t was then evi-
dent that Mr., Atkins, who had been in poor
health, was severely stricken, If indeed it
was not his death blow, and he never re-
covered wholly from the shock, Mr., At
Rins was an active and Jealous member Of
the Episcopal church, and he took a prom
inent part In the affairs Of the Vermont do
cese. Although q bitter fighter politically
be was socially a genial, compSnionable
man, and his death will lie regretted by a
large circle Of friends and oCQuaintancss.
