States shows that So are cultivated by.

mont stands lowest in this list, only 10
out of every 100 of her farms being free
and clear, 81 mortgaged and Is rented.
But in tins State farming on shares is
carried on more extensively than else
where, which accounts for the large pro-
portion of rented farms.
In Massachusetts and Rhode Island
only per cent of the families follow
agriculture, III Connecticut the propor-
ton is lG, while in Vermont and Maine
it runs up to over 10 per cent, and OF
New Hampshre's families one-third, or

Now that the swindle has been eX-
posed, the Minneapolis papers are vo-
clferously calling for the scalp of
Menage, the engineer of the burst
Northwestern Guaranty Loan Co., who,
it is said, managed to get out of the
country with some 81 100000 in cold
cash. The Minneapolis Tribune vents
its emotions thus:
Menage was the perpetrator of one of
the most colossal swindles of the decade.
His thefts amounted TO millions and his
victims were numbered by the thousand.
His mammoth buncO game, conducted
under the guise of a legitimate business
enterprise, has made the name of Mime
apolis byword for the time being in the
financial centers of the East, for in the
East his victims are most numerous and
clamOrOus. His operations have done
more to injure the reputation and credit
of Minneapolis and Minneapolis imam
cial enterprises than any number of
failures and suspensions of the ordinary
kind. The stain Is one that cannot be
wiped out at once. 1t must be lived
down. But it can be lived down the
more quickly by the capture and punish.

The situation is bad enough in some of
the manufacturing centers of this coun-
try, but the condition of things in Eng
land resulting from the strikes and lock-
outs of coal miners is infinitely worse. A
London dispatch, after telling of the suf-
ferings occasioned the strikers, goes OH
to say:
But dreadful as the distress among the
locked-out and striking colliers is, the
latter are far oyershadOwed in numbers
by the operatives III other industries now
thrown out of work by the closing of
mills, furnaces, factories and railway
shops. General paralysis of manufacture
ing is costing the country more millions
weekly than any one dares TO think of.
1t is a commonplace to say that nothing
like such misery and disaster has ever
been known before in England. There
is no parallel for it anywhel save, per-
haps, in some peculiarly savage and
widespread phase of devastation by war

PRESIDENT CLEVELAND ON SILVER.

PRE- ESlOENT CLEVELAND ON oliver
Members of his party in the senate
profess to be very much grieved because,
as they allege, President Cleveland is
trying to drive them into "A course of leg
islatlon on the silver question of which
their Judgment does not approve.
Whether these honest statesmen are un-
der as great pressure as they say they
are may be doubted; nevertheless the
president has made it clear that he has
definite views upon the problem that en-
cages the attention of the senate and
that those views are unlike the preiudic-
es entertained by the advocates of free
silver coinage. His recent letter to Gov.
Northen of Georgia tells what Mr.. Cleve-
land thinks about the matter. He says: {:
| want a currency that is stable and
safe in the hands of our people. | will
not knowingly be implicated in con-
dltion that will Justly make me in the
least degree ansWerable to any laborer
or farmer in the United States for ii
shrinkage in the purchasing power of the
dollar he has received for "A full dollars
worth of the product of his toll.
want good, sound and stable money
and condition of confidence that will
keep it in use.
Within the limits of what | have writ
ten, am friend of silver, but | believe
it's proper place in our currency can only
be fixed by readiustment of our cur
rency legislation and the Inauguration of
consistent and comprehensive financial
scheme. | think such thing can only
be enter ed upon protitably and hopeful
ly after the repeal of the law which is
charged with all our financial woes. In
the present state of the public mind this
law cannot be built upon nor patched up
in such way as to relieve the situation.
am therefore opposed to the free and
unlimited coinage of silver by this cOun-
try alone and independently and | am
in favor of the immediate and uncondi-
tional repeal of the purchasing clause of
the So called Sherman law.
confess | am astOnished by the Oppo-
sition in the senate to such prompt action
as would relieve the present unfortunate
situation.
My daily prayer is that the delay oc-
caslOned by such opposition may not be
the cause of plunging the country into
utpppI upDTtSSlOn lildu IL HAS Nci hilON u
and that the Democratic party may not
be Justly held responsible for such cat
astrophe.
Ex-senator Farwell of Illinois pro-
poses new and rather startling remedies
for the financial complications. He
would, in the first place, have the gov
ernment take up all its greenbacks aud
circulating notes of all sorts. He says,
and very properly, that it is not IA
function of the government to issue
paper money except when driven to that
course by its own necessities, as in
times of war. Then he would have the
national banks permitted to issue notes
to the par value of the government
bonds they own, and the tax on national
bank circulation repealed. AS to silver
he says: "Withdraw the legal tender
quality of silver dollars, except for a
limited amount, and then let free coin
age follow. Silver will be used as
money, and all of it at its market value,
and II cannot be used for any more"

AN EARLY MORNING ERE.

THE CHAPMAN BLOCK SUFFERS FkOM
FLAMES, SMOKE AND WATER.
The Chapman block on Main street
and its contents were damaged some
what by fire, but more by smoke and
water at an early hour Wednesday morn
ing.
The block Is of wood. B. B. Hope
occupies the basement and part of the
main floor as a furniture store; Chap
man Il Co., custom tailOrs and dealers
in ready-made clothing and mems fur
nishing goods, have the larger portion of
the main floor and some rooms on the
upper floor, where are also the dress
making rooms of Mrs. Helen Campbell
and the lodge room of the Knights Of
Honor.
Night Watchman Dickinson discovered
the fire about 10 o'clock, and gave the
alarm. The firemen and citizens turned
out quickly and speedily had three good
streams playing upon the flames. What
fire there was had its headquarters in
closet in the center of the upper floor. 1t
was hard to reach, but plenty of water
soon put it under subsection. Tons of
water were poured into the building,
flooding it from cellar to garret. The
fire hardly got out of the closet where it
apparently originated, but the smoke
penetrated all parts of the structure and
the water soaked it and pretty much ev-
erything it contained.
Mrs. Campbell had dozen dresses
almost finished. These were practically
ruined; and as she had furnished the
material for them and had only small
insurance, her loss will be considerable.
Chapman & Co.'S store presents an un-
pleasant appearance, to say the least.
The piles of clothing are more or less
wet, while the furnishing goods are ruin
ed, the plaster is dropping off the walls
and ceilings and everything is water
logged. The firm have insurance
enough to cover their loss.
Mr.. Hopes rooms are not more at
tractive than Chapman & Co.'S. His up
holstered goods are in bad cOnditOn,as is
much of the furniture. which the water
caused to warp and twist out of shape.
lie has $500 insurance, which he says
will cover the loss.
The building belongs TO Mr.. L. NJ.
Chapman, who has $500 insurance, and
there Is $500 more on his stock of organs
and sewing machines. There were no
organs in the building. The building
itself will need considerable repairs to
make it is as good as it was before the
| fire.
As to the origin of the fire there is no
definite information. 1t clearly origina-
ted in a closet about five feet square near
the center of the upper floor. The closet
is of large room where Chapman & Co.
store goods not needed. In the closet
itself had been placed few days ago
what remained of their stock of straw
hats.
The insurance on the block and
contents was carried by the local agen-
cies of Mr. Eldredge and Mr.. Brooks.

The Green Mountlin stock farm at
West Randolph broke the worlds record
for butter at the Columbian exposition,
its showing for September scoring 9s5
points. We are panied to observe that
the State experiment station at Burling-
ton, which is supposed to know all about
butter and things and to he able to tell
the farmers how to make it, was award
ed a score of but 81 points on its pro-
duct. Perhaps it needs another appro-
priation.

COURT.

COURT.
There are five Addison county cases on

preme court which will open at Mont
pelier on the 24th inst. These are: Abb
ram Williamsons Admr. VS.. Cur
tis II. James, in which the Interpretation

Admr. VS.. Eler ger Shattuck: Phelps B.
Smiths Exr. VS.. Nancy NJ. Smiths

case) State VS.. Edward IIodgson "a liq-
uor case), and Jerome f. Manning VS..
Benz. f. Leighton.
1t is understood that the Hodgson case
and the famous Rutland county case of
State VS.. John O'Neil OF Whitehall will
be heard together. In each case the
same point is involved-the constitutions
ality of the Vermont prohibitory law.
1t will he contended on behalf of the de-
fense that the statutory provision per-
mitting the beginning of prosecutions by
Information instead of indictment is not
in accordance with the constitution of
the United States, and that the form of
information prescribed by the statute
does not afford respondent his consti-
tional right to be Uniformed of the ma
ture and cause of the accusation against
him."

s1eRns' DRUG STORE euRoLAa!zeo.

Mr.. Isaac Sterns' drug store was en-
tered during Wednesday night through
a back window. Eighty-four pennies, a
box of five-cent cigars and box of
candy are missing.
The thief or thieves got in by taking
plank from the platform in the rear
of the store and placing it against the
seat of the window in the rear of the pre-
scription desk. One pane was then broken
out and an entrance effected. The
window is six or seven feet from the
ground. All the money drawers were
wrenched of and every show case in

The university of Pennsylvania has
set up a school of journalism. The in
stitution will give employment to more
or less professors, and to that extent
will be useful; but whether its useful
ness will extend further is open to doubt.
The making of newspapers unquestion-
ably demands education, and the more
education of the right sort a maker of
newspapers has the better for him and
his readers. At the same time there
appears to be no reason for supposing
that a special school can give better
training than can be had in the practical
work of a newspaper Office.

Dun & Co., the commercial agency
people, figure out that there we're about
400 failures during the quarter ended on
the 1st inst. and that the total liabilities
were about $50, 1000 .0O0-much in excess
of those of any previous quarter. The
business situation, taking the country as
a whole, seems to be improving all the
while, though quite slowly of late. The
delay in the coming of decidedly better
times is undoubtedly due in large meas
ure to the inaction of the senate, which
is still debating the silver bill.
