BISHOP ELECT HALL.

The hearts of the Churchmen
of the Diocese OF Vermont have
been made glad through the for
mll acceptance of his election by
the Rev. &C. \. HILL. His name
is now before all the Dioceses for
acceptance or rejection through
the action of the Standing Com
mittees. The Standing Com
mittec Of a Diocese represents the
clergy and laity of that Diocese.
Its action consequently IS &C
ccptcd as expressing the mind OF
the Diocese. The majority OF
Dioccscs is required oconhrm an
election to the House of Bishops.
When an election has been con
frmed by the required majority
of DiOceses, then the Standing
Committee of the Diocese cleGting
must notify the presiding Bishop
of such consent, and 1t becomes
his duty to communicate the
same to all the Bishops OF this
Church in the United States. And
if a majority Of Bishops consent
to his conservation, then the Pre-
siding Bishop must without de-
lay notify the Bishop elect. Then
upon his formal notification to
the Presiding Bishop of his &C
ceptance of the election SO rati-
fed, the Presiding Bishop must
take order for the conservation
of such Bishop elect
1t will be readily seen that the
safeguards against thcconsccra-
ton of a man to the Episcopate
WhO ir "nt sound in doctrine or
godly in life, are q..ta sufficient to
prevent over anxiety on the ptl I
of individual members of the
Church. BY the time a Bishop
elect has run the gauntlet OF
criticism before some sixty bio
ceses he will be pretty well tested
as to his qualifications for such
position. The very best thing
for the Church folk to do, there
fore, is to leave the matter of the
Bishop elect of this Diocese just
where it legitimatcly belongs
The Bishops and the Standing
Committees are perfectly able tC
attend to this matter, and viii
do so in the fear of COP, will
fairness, business and charity to
ward the Bishop elect and fol
the best interests not only o
this Diocese but of the Church a
large.

The worst appointment scan
dial of recent years is President
Cleveland'S nomination to the
Senate of James J. Van Allen to
be Ambassador to Italy. Van
Allen is neither a Democrat, a
Republican, a Prohibitionist, nor
anything else, and is as totally in
Capacitated to perform the funC-
tionS of that great Office as a
man can be. Van Allen contribu-
ted $4,000 to the campaign
fund of the Democratic National
Committee in 1892 with the UNI
dcrstanding that he was to be
honorcd by Cleveland in the way
in which he has. The Senate,
too, has CO-Opcratcd with the
administration in its sale of APP
pointments or vindication of the
rights Of the American people.
With reference to this appoint
ment there is no room for doubt,
for Van Allen himself has been
talking freely to newspaper re
portcrs. He says that he was
asked in last summers campaign
to contribute to the Democratic
campaign fund; that he sent a
check then, and aftcrward three
or four others; that some time
ago William {. Whitney, Clcvc-
lands old Secretary of the Navy,
and now manager of the admin
istratiOn forces in New York city,
suggested to him that as he had
been q generous contributor OF
the sinews of war, and it being
customary to reward such Scrv1-
ces, he should apply for the Italian
mission, which would suit him
admirably; that he did SO, and
got it.

The carnival of crime now in
progress in the Cherokee Strip is
disgrace to our present civiliz-
alton and it is directly traceable
to our barbarous methods of dis
tributing the public domain.
From this one point of view it is
consoling that there is little prob
ability of having many more re-
petitions of these disgraceful
speculative scramblcs for land.

Under the Free Trade party's
idea of a new Tariff the price of
sugar will be increased % or 80

This addition to the household
expenses, coming at the same
time as a reduction in wages of
10 or % per cent, will be very
sorely felt.

CENTrHYS GRnWTH.

Ofcourse it is idle TO tell any
body that this country is bigger,
a great deal bigger, than it was
a hundred years ago. Its special
mission has seemed - b. to
grow and to keep on growing.
Incidentally it has accomplished
many other things, has dcvcl-
opcd 4 system of government, Of
Jurisprudence, has created a lit
era turc Gifts own, and has made
aplacc for itself among the pow
crful nations of the earth. But
II is in respect to growth that its
achievement is the most remark
able. The New York Commercial
Advertiser has been to the trou-
bic to collect a few facts which
will be of interest to people born
and bred i'll the United States,
whether they go to the worlds
fair or not. 1t finds that i'll 1893
there were fifteen states and i'll
1893 there are forty-fOur. \
population Of 3,929,3 2S has in
creased to 67,1SG,OOO, occupy
ing an area OF $3.50, 800 square
miles, which IN the original was
but SOL ,4G1. Philadelphia WIS
then the largest city i'll the Unit
ed States, having a population
Of $500, New York coming
second with SO, 121, Boston 49,
OBS and Baltimore 10, 500. Chi.
cago, San Francisco, Milwaukee,
Minneapolis and st. Paul were
not on the maps, while St Louis,
Cincinnati and Pittsburg were
just beginning to be. New York
with 4 40, 11J census, Phila-
dclphia with l ,l42, 653 and Chi
cago with 1,O99,S5O comprise
more population than that cred
tied to the country 100 years
ago. The congress of 1893 had
135 members and the congress
now in session has LIS on a
ratio of representation of l to
173,901 of population to only
10000 a century ago. As evil
denCc of the nations growth
here is the money side of the re-
view. In 1893 the receipts into
the treasury were So, 72O, 62,t,
and in 1893 they are $l61,SO7,-
1888. The expenditures under
Washington were $7,529.575,
while in Clcvcland's like year
they amount to $4J9, .tG1, III.
From imports then the aggrc-
gate was $31 100000, and to-
day.it is $3.50, 361 ,421. The ex-
ports We're valued at 500, 1O9,-
600, and now the figures are
SSH, sos, O24. Washington was
satisfied with 200 postotlicc APP
pOintmcntS, while Cleveland has
67119 at his disposal. The
revenue from postofficcs then
was $104, TAI and expenditures
$1,000. The revenue today is
ST., $50, 100, and the eXpcndi-
lures $S1, 500, 5+3. There were
10 colleges then and 597 today.
Public schools were among the
unknown, along with railroads,
the telegraph and telephone In
public schools alone for the year
1898 there are 13,O1O,133 pupils
enrolled with 369,63+ teachers
in charge.

IERNIONT.

1t is quite often the case says
the st. Adams Messenger that,
outside of his native state, the
Nermontcr is met by many carp
ing criticisms upon this common
wealth and sneering references to
her relative unimportancc among
the SisterhoOd of States. These
contemptuous illusions to our
modest little territory are the
product of prejudice and igno-
rance, and are, for the most part,
as ridiculous to the intelligent
man as they are annoying and
insulting to the loyal Vermontcr.
OF course, the sureSt way to be
successful in an argument, cspec-
ially when one is on his Oppo-
nent's territory, is to keep out of
the discussion altogether. Never
theless your real, true Green
Mountain blood leaps at the
mere suggestion of the inferiority
of ones beloved home, and dis
cretion and its relation co valor
are completely overlooked.
Now, it would surprise any one
who is disposed to belittle there
sources and consequence of Yer
mont to know the whole truth
of the matter, and the truth is
easily obtainable if those dis
posed to ridicule us would be
fair-minded enough to take a lit.
tie pains to find it. However
jealous or prejudiced his family
Of nieces may be of each other
Uncle Sam evinccs no partially
among them, but in the great
family record books at the ole
homestead in Washington h,
writes down all the good anC
bad qualities indifferently.
AS an instance, and only {
slight one of many, of what {
proud position Vermont really
holds among her sisters, if they
would but admit it, it is refresh
ing to read a few entries which
Uncle Sam has just made in his
| book.
1t will be found that of twenty
one states from which statistics
of mortgages have been gathered
New York heads the list with {
per capita mortgage debt o
$26S, while Vermont is but tentl
with debt of $S4 per capita
This list includes all the New
England states, among whom
Vermont is third in point of de
creased mortgage debt, Maine
and New Hampshire alone ex
ceiling her.
Now, who would have ven
tured to say that we could out
strip the Bay State, the NutmeI
State, Little Rhody" and ever
the great Empire State in thi
respect. But we do, and if one i
inclined to consult Uncle Sam
records further, he will be doubt
less surprised to learn Of man,
things in which his native stat
not only surpasses her sisters
but actuallyle leads the world.
