Home Rule for Ireland.

Mr.. Gladstone has scored important
successes in his scheme for settling the
Irish question by letting the Irish gov
ern themselves. F, bruary IA, the sold
man eloquent" explained to the house
of commons the main features of his
second attempt to frame a home-rule
government for Ireland. The bill I'M
dertakes to establish between Ireland
and Great Britain relations analogous
to those that exist in this country be-
tween state and the general govern
ment, but self-government in Ireland is
hedged about by many restrictions that
do not exist in the case of state of the
American Union. These limitations of
freedom in the management of home
affairs grow out of the peculiar condi-
tons existing in Ireland and the hered-
itary hostility of Irishmen for England
and everything that's English. By the
terms of the bill, Irish land is to remain
for three years under the control of the
parliament of Great Britain; for six
years the Irish constabulary is to remain
under the control of the imperial au-
thorities, who also for six years will
appoint the judges of the courts. The
commercial policy of the country, the
customs, excuses and post-office will
remain permanently in the control OF
the imperial government. In all mat
tiers relating to peace and war, defence
and foreign relations, coinage and re-
ligious liberty, the Irish parliament il
is proposed to establish at Dublin viii

THE spoils devil never came so near flying
away with party as he is just now. The
administrations toes hardly touch the
ground and the strain on its suspenders is
manifestly prodigious.- Pioneer Press.
JUST as some natures show an intolerance
for certain drugs, so the mugwumps have
an intolerance for smiling Bob Maxwell and
his mastery decapitating work. He keeps
them guessing and in a wretched frame of
mind. The rattle of his fast running ma
chine affrights and enrages them. The
whistle of the political guillotine haunts
their dreams. They wish smiling Bob were
back in Batavia. They are sorry he was
ever asked to leave there.-Neto York Sun.

The Grand Naval Parade.

For week past steel-armored YES
sells representing every maritime power
OF the world have been rendezvousing in
Hampton Roads to participate in the
Grand Naval Review which began yes
terday at New York. The Spanish
caravels, exact reproductions of the
Pinta, Nina and Santa Maria, which
comprised Columbus feet of discovery,
arrived at Hampton Roads on Friday,
towed by vessels of the Spanish navy.
The caravels, with thirty-seven war ves-
sells representing the latest develop
ments of naval architecture and the en-
ginery of naval offense and defense,
constitute the fleet that entered New
York harbor yesterday. To-day the
entire fleet will weigh anchor at nine
O'Clock A. M, and move in two columns
through the upper bay and up the Hud-
son, the head Of the column anchoring
off S9th street, the rear off 34th street.
Tomorrow the squadrons will dress
ship and hoist colors simultaneously at
eight O'Clock. President Cleveland
will go on board the Dolphin at half
past ten O'Clock, and other national dig
nitaries, accompanied by the Duke of
Veragua, will occupy other vessels
The Vermont watchman. [volume] (Montpelier, Vt.) 1883-1911, 1893-04-26

which will accompany the president.
The Dolphin will steam up midway be-
tween the two columns and anchor just
above the feet, her progress up the line
being marked by naval salutes. After the
Dolphin has anchored, the commanding
officers will leave their ships to pay their
respects to the president. AS the pres
ident leaves his ship every vessel will
fire a salute. With the last gun the
presidents flag comes down and the
ceremonies of the day are ended. In
the evening there will be an exhibition
of search lights and night signaling,
and grand ball at Madison Square
garden. On Friday all the officers of
the fleet will be escorted in a great mil
itary procession to the city hall, where
the city of New York will receive and
entertain them. The review will be a
magnificent spectacle, not so snowy as
the gingerbread creations reared at
Chicago, but a spectacle thousand
times more worth the seeing.

The Bahamas of the Pacific.

An American citizen writes in this
strong language concerning the posi-
BILE loss of Hawaii to the United States:
/" l cannot tell you in words the salts
faction with which | read your editorial
article, mo Throne Bui ding This
country awaits with anxiety the next
move of the administration indeed, it
seems 10 me that every patriot is hold
ing his breath, in fear that the uncer-
lainty will be rudely broken by its
special representative. The reasons
why we should acquire Hawaii are so
numerous that l cannot discuss them.
For the sake of our country, whose
glOries we desire to see increase. beg
of you to keep up the fight" There is
no fight yet, except with few un
American and pro-British newspapers
like the NeD York Evening Post.
These newspapers committed them
selves early against the Americanization
of the Sandwich Islands. Rather than
admit their lack of patriotism and fore
sight, they are doing everything in
their power to persuade an administra-
ton intrusted with American interests
to shut the door in the face of ma
tional opportunity such as comes only
once in a century, There is no posi-
tive evidence that Mr.. Cleveland's ad,
mini stration has decided to perpetrat e
this fatal and damning blunder. So far
as is known, nothing has been done yet
inconsistent with policy which might
result in bringing the islands under our
flag permanently before the end of the
present year. But there is bound to be
fight OF unusual magnitude at the first
conclusive proof that Mr.. Cleveland
sent Mr.. Blount to Hawaii to restore
monarchy and to kill annexation. 1t
will be fight to prevent the commits
sion OF a crime against the nations
safety, progress, and welfare. If the
people of this country are prevented
from acquiring Hawaii now that it is
offered to them, Englaud's future SUI
premacy in the islands will be assured.
The English flag might as well be
hoisted at once where ours was recently
flying. What will English possession
OF Hawaii mean to the United States?
Has anybody forgotten what English
possession of certain islands command
ing our Atlantic coast meant thirty
years ago? There is one group called
the Bahamas, occupying stragetcally,
if not geographically, the same rela-
tions to the Atlantic coast of the United
States as the Hawaiian Islands hold to
our Pacific coast and our Pacific COM
merce. The mere circumstance that
the British flag and not the American
flag covered the Bahamas probably
cost this country from three to five
hundred millions of dollars when the
time came for British possession and
British advantage of position to coun,
against our people. The time may
come when we would gladly pay five
hundred million dollars rather than
have the Hawaiian Islands in the hands
of an alien and hostile powerful.

Note and Comment.
SMILING BOB.

Maxwell, an adept at the headsman's trade,
Alike was famous for his and blade.
One day an ofiiceholder, Justice had to kill.
Knelt at the block to test the artists skill.
Bare armed and smiling, soft and sunny browed
Maxwell, the headsman rose above the crowd.
His falchion lightened with sudden CLEAN
AS the pixies armor flashes in the stream.
He sheathed his blade and turned as If to go;
The person knelt, still waiting for the blow.
"Why strikest not? Perform thy usual act!"
The person said. (His voice was slightly cracked
Friend, hare struck" the smiling Bob replied;
"Wait but enc moment and yourself decide"
He held his snuff box; Now, then, II you please
The person shifted, and with crashing sneeze
OF his head tumbed bowled along the floor,
bounced down the steps; the person said no more
But all the democrats hurrahed for Joy,
And said that Maxwell was bully boy

The silver Anniversary of the Wedding OF
Mr.. and Mrs. $. &. Shurtleff Celebrated
A Pleasant and Notable Affair - Valua-
BILE Presents and Hearty Congratula-
lions.
STEPHEN C.. SHURTLEFF AND MISS LIzzIK
NJ. PRATT were married at Plainheld on
April 81, 1868, and the silver anniversary OF
that event was pleasantly celebrated at
their spacious home on Main street last
Friday evening. From eight to eleven
o'clock large company of invited guests
called to pay their respects to the bride and
groom of twenty-five years and to congratu-
late them on having so pleasantly passed a
quarter of century of welded life together
The host and hostess were assisted in re-
ceving by Miss Maud and Harry Shurtlen,
their daughter and son, and by MRS A. M
Wells, the venerable mother OF MIS-, onurt-
left Misses Anna Guernsey and Flora
Cummins, Charles Burpee and M. +. Atkins
presented the guests to the receiving party.
The Montpelier orchestra was stationed In
the upper hall and discoursed excellent
music throughout the evening: Mrs. A. 0.
Cummins, Mrs. w. A. Stowell, Mrs. Il. +.
Rand and Mrs. George Atkins conducted
the ladies and gentlemen to the dining-room,
where refreshments were served under the
direction Of Mrs. Alma Smith, caterer. The
whole interior of the home was bright and
fragrant with pinks, smilax, roses, daffodils,
lilies and palms, arranged with pleasing
effect A table laden with valuable and
beautiful gifts stood in an alcove in the
upper hall and attracted muck attention.
Among the souvenir gifts were an elegant
silver service of eight pieces, from the
members of Washington county bar, of
which Mr.. Shurtlef is a leading member,
and beautiful candelabrum, salad bowl,
soup tureen and pudding dish, all in sill
yer, from the members of the Apollo Club,
with many others, chaste, appropriate and
valuable. Among the prominent people
towns
Mrs. j. p. Lamson of Cabot Mr.. and Mrs.
]. NJ. Perry of Barre, and several relatives
of Mr.. Shurtleff from Glover. The occa-
sion was one OF rare enjoyment. The easy
cordiality of Mr.. and Mrs. Shurtlef, and the
one thought OF heartfelt esteem and good
wishes that actuated every one present pre-
vented any approach to stiffness and for
mality. The affair had long been matter
of delightful anticipation and is now a
| pIeasurable memory.

State Liquor Traffic.

The legislature of South Carolina, at
it's last session, began novel expert
ment in the matter of regulating that
ever-existent and ever-present evil, the
traffic in Intoxicating liquors. Temper
ance agitation has been active and ag-
gressive in the Palmetto state, and the
law that will go into effect July l is the
outcome of a sort of compromise be-
tween the radical prohibition element
and the advocates of license with local
option. The law establishes at specified
points state dispensaries for the sale of
liquor in sealed packages, containing
not less than half pint. The liquor is
not to be drunk on the premises. A
commission created by the governor
will appoint the dispensers, who must
be total abstainers and are paid def
mite salary, dependent in no wise upon
the amount of sales. The state buys
the liquors in bulk, has them tested by
chemist, and puts them up in pack
ages of various sizes. The state sells
the liquors to the dispensers at profit
of fifty per cent, and the dispensers
dispense at an additional profit Of fifty
per cent, half of which gain goes into
the county treasury, the remainder into
the municipal exchequer. No dispen-
sary is to be established at any county
seat unless a majority of the freehold
ers petition for it, and then but one dis
pensarv can be established in any
county seat, except in Charleston, which
may have ten, and Columbia, which
may have three.
The liquor dealers are hostile to the
new law, and will, it is believed, make
up case and test its constitutionality
Governor Tillman's visit to the North to
buy the states stock of liquors excites
interest and comment. The governor
says the law shall be faithfully enforced.
He believes it will raise an immense
revenue and:will reduce taxation nearly
one-half.
How will the law work? A trial only
can tell, but reason can foretell some OF
the difficulties that lie in the way of ex,
ecuting such law. To the prohibi-
tionists it is not acceptable, as it per.
mits the sale and making of intoxicating
liquors. The liquor interest is opposed
to it, as it destroys the business of every
saloon, every wholesaler and every re-
taller. The measure looks more like 6
great scheme to raise revenue than tc
restrict or control the liquor traffic
Considering all the elements of the case
the complicated nature of the law ant
the hostility it will naturally invite from
liquor dealers and from liquor drinkers
there will very likely be, in course O.
time, wholesale evasions. The legalzet
"dispensers may become fruitful
source of trouble, political and other in
fluences may come in to modify or de
feat the operation of the law, and spec
ulation may open up hundred avenues
of failure. The experime nt will be
watched with great interest.

MISS Lucy LARCoM, the poet, died last
week in Boston. Her death removes one OF
the oldest and most popular of New England
poets, and one whom the young folks es-
pecially will keenly miss. She was a life
long friend OF j. G. Whittier, and his death
was a great sorrow to her, as was the death
OF Phillips Brooks, her spiritual adviser.
The day Of Bishop Brooks death he received
letter from her in which she spoke of her
failing health and presentiment that she
would never see him again in this life. Her
early life was passed in struggle with pow
erty, and in her experience in Lowell fac
tory, where she worked as bobbin girl, she
