THE citizens of Kansas are likely to
pay dearly for the Populist craze,
which they thoughtlessly permitted
to run wild over their state until the
foundation of its prosperity and
government were threateud. The
turbulent scenes which characteriza ID
the organization of the Legislature and
the serious danger which then threa-
tened the peace of the community
opened the eyes Of many of the states
citizens to the real trend of the wild
ideas advocated by the new party
men. Another object lesson has re-
Gently been furnished which cannot
fail to call still further halt on the
progress of the Populist heresy. A
large investment company has with
drawn from the state, and its president
has given the reasons therefor. They
are briefly, the anarchistic .utterance
of the governor and the vicious
legislation on the subject of contracts
enacted by the last Legislature
"Life," he adds, sis two short for ac.
tive men to sit down and wait fol-
three.fourths of the voters of state
to regain their sanity" The populist
fanatics have led the people of Kan
sas wild dance, but the time to pay
the piper is evidently now at hand.

The authorities of Gettysburg who
have allowed railroad company to
play havoc with the great battlefield,
are receiving what they richly earned
"a large measure of popular condem-
nation. 1t is a mercy that they are
not the custodians of the Declaration

them to sell it for waist paper to some
insinuating junk-dealer. The sugges'

Gettysburg battlefield be turned into
a national park. At all events il

None Of them are here at present except
Mr.. Anderson, who says
owe had no expert with us, for the rea-
son that we did not need one. Anybody
could see that the building is ready to
tumble down. The only way to remedy
matters is to tear the entire building down
to the foundation stones and begin anew.
1t is said that the contractors are not liable
as the contract specified that they might
take their building stone from the premi-
ses Not one stone in the foundation is fit
TO be put into it. They were gathered
from the surface of the ground and not
quarried.
Governor Pattison was asked if he had
seen the report, or read what purported to
be the result of the investigation as it ap-
peared in the papers. He said he had not
read anything about it, and the committee
did not report to him. cit must report to

The graduates of the North Conway,

Johnsbury and vicinity, held their first
reunion at the st. Johnsbury House
on the evening of Jan. 10th. 1t was a
grand success in every way. There
were present twenty.six of the grad
yates of the North Conway Institute,
with their lady friends. The clergy
men and many prominent citizens
were present as invited guests Among
those present were four husbands and
wives who for years had been separ-
ated on account of rum, but now re-
united and happier than words can tell.
VIM. E. Gould, the gentlemanly and
large-hearted manager of the North
Conway Institute was present. To
say that all "the boys" were glad to
again look into his face and take his
hand is putting it very mildly. After
delightful hour of reunion, happy
"reminiscences and hearty Misunderstanding
in the spacious parlors of the hotel, the
entire company sat down to an elegant
banquet in the dining hall. The tables
were loaded with all the market could
afford, except liquors. These found no
place. Ample justice having been
done to the banquet Hon. Samuel B.

HaVerhill'S Outlook.

There now seem to be tangible founda-
ton for the expectation of change of this
town in the future. 1t was, from the first,
a prominent point in the state. Nowhere
were better farms found.
The town leads any town in the state by
a thousand tons in her hay cut. 1t only
needs enterprise and industry to more than
maintain this supremacy in agriculture.
Several recent discoveries of No |
granite; furnishes more than mere hope
that the prosperity and wealth of the town
will be vastly increased.
These quarrieS are at the south end and
at the north end of the town. The Black
mountain granite quarry has organized
with capital of 100000, and are now
planning for increased and active operations
in the early spring. The board of trustees
contains the names of persons, who are re-
garded a guarantee that this is a scheme,
not merely on paper, but is a reality.
Several shades of granite of the finest
quality are quarried here, with very little
cost. The stone is light, medium and
dark colors and free from iron. The
quarries can be approached by short spur
of railroad.
Is this town to become a Barre with its
5000 populations in the near future? 1t
looks a little that way.
Now let her moneyed men address them
selves to home interests, and let paper
towns in the West and South look out for
JuellS6IN6S. EHOuSn money mas already
been sunk in these paper towns, at the eX-
pense of the people of HaverhilI, to put
both granite finds into successful operation.
With these interests added to the increased
business of the Pike Mfg. Co., Haverhill
would, indeed, become a booming town.
But we want no boom, we want vigorous,
active growth.
By the way the suggestion that the new
expansion of the milestone business go to
WoodSville is good one, there is the
water power the year around, sand unlimit- !
ed, and the best of railroad facilities
