1t took the jury in the Borden case,
Tuesday, less than an hour to reach a
verdict of mot guilty." and Lizzie Bor-
den was discharged amid the cheers of
the multitude that could have been
heard half mile away. In another
place we print calm review of this case
from the N. Y. Press. The finding of
the jury was warranted by the evidence,
for there was not a scintilla of proof
connecting the young woman with the
crime. The action of the prosecuting
authorities from the very outset has
bordered on the barberous. They must
have known that they had no case, yet
they had kept Miss Borden in Jail for
over nine months, and stand before the
public in anything but a commendable
light. They started out on the theory
that the defendant ives guilty and any
thing which might tend to establish her
innocence if it did not also connect some
enc else with the double murder was
ruthlessly brushed aside. Fall River
has no particuler reason to feel proud of
its public force for its members have
shown an ability at bungling which
would have been a disgrace to the de-
tective force of Podunk. But although
declared innocent Miss Borden, for the
rest of her life, will rest under the shad
ow of the awful suspicious that were
entertained against her and mono o.
which are warranted by the facts.

WHY VERMONT REMAINS "IN-
LAND"

The agriculture editor of the Watch
man makes the following sensible re-
marks and pertinent inquiry regard to a
subject which has been frequently agitat-
ed by the state press:
Speaking of Vermont's great inter-
ests and opportunities, it seems strange,
when it can be done at comparatively
small cost, that Lake Champlain remains
unimproved as channel of continental
commerce. A ship canal between the
st. Lawrence river and Chanplain, and
between Champlain and the Hudson
would give to Vermont immense advan-
tages. AS she now is, she is side-tracked
in the worlds commerce. She is an in
terror State But few millions expend-
ed in that work would put her into the
very current of the worlds traffic. Her
advantages would be equal to those of
Maine, and the whole State would be re-
modelled and exalted by the now of that
great tide of business passing by her
territory. Why not? Will anybody
tell?'
We think we can answer our contem-
porary's inquiry in this matter. The
reason why Vermont capital is not de-
voted to the project of making our
States tributary to a channel of conti-
mental commerce is owing to the fact
that the right man or set of men to push
the enterprise has not appeared and TAX
en- hold of the matter. Moreover the
chances are that if the most able, ener-
getic and popular business man in Yer
mont at the present time or number of
our best men were to unite to undertake
such project as an investment, Yer
mont capital would not be forthcoming,
although a good profit might be practi-
cally guaranteed. If a stranger or set of
strangers were to undertake the work;
or IL the canals were to be built in the
South or West there would be no diff
Guilty in raising money for the purpose
in this State.
In short, it seems to be human nature
to take stock in people whom we do not
know; but Vermonters have been taking
sort of ''gold cure' for this habit, and
we confidently expect that in the near
future it will be possible to make i'm
provements like that suggested and
others in the nature of large home IN
vestnents with Vermont capital.
Press.
Coming again to this subject, the Free
Press of day or two later, suggests
that at some past date charter for a
ship canal was granted by Quebec, but
it was allowed to lapse. The enquiry is
then made as to how it will be possible
to engage in such an enterprise when the
canal must necessarily run through two
countries and be under two governments.
Possibly a way to solve the problem
might be found bat the Free Press is
not sanguine

The Supreme Court of Massachusetts,
Wednesday, handed down a decision to
the effect that the sending of child to a
Parochial school is sufficient compli-
ance with the statutes, where the child
is instructed in the branches required by
law, even if the school is not approved
by the school committee of the town or
city where the school is situated. This
is the finding of the full court in the
case of the State against Frank Roberts
of Fitchburg, who was complained of
for neglecting to cause his II year old
child to attend any public school in that
city. Roberts claimed that he had sent
the girl to private school where she
had received the instruction made neces-
sary by law. The school was Parochial
school. The decision is a very impOr-
tant one and will cause sensation in
the Old Bay State.

EARLY Saturday morning as the Com
mander of the Viking ship and five of his
sailors were quietly returning from an
entertainment in their honor, some one
rushed up and struck one of the party.
They stopped and the whole were at
once arrested, and in spite of protesta-
tions were taken to the station and
locked up. They were taken out and
held to bail for appearance the following
Monday although they expected to leave
for Chicago before that time. The may
or of Brooklyn has apologized to the
Viking sailors for the stupidity of the
police officers who arrested them and
the magistrate who held them, and has
roundly rebuked those officials besides.
The Norsemen may, therefore, consider
themselves handsomely vindicated, but
the rebuked officials must feel pretty
cheap.

Centenarians are not so common but
that they attract unusual interest. The
Springfield Republican prints a portrait
of Mrs. Hannah Stevenson of North
Brookfield, Mass, who was 100 years old
yesterday, having been born in that
town June 81, 1893. She was the daugh-
ter of Robert and Susan (HilD Hath
away. To show that longevity runs in
the family" as it were, and is evidently
largely influenced by heredity, we quote /;
'Her ancestry on the Hill side were
long lived. John Hill, a London wool
comber, died at the age of 90; his son
John, who came to America and settled
at Rehoboth, afterward going to Brook
field, lived to be 102 years old. His son,
Peter Hill, grandfather of Mrs. Steven
son, died at the age of 80, so that three
of her ancestors reached the average age
of97 years." She was married June Is.
1912, and about year afterward her
husband was killed in the war of 1872.
She has long drawn pension as his
widow. Her only child died in infancy.
Her sight and hearing are poor, but she
sleeps and eats well. She says her
health was not good in her younger
days, but has been very satisfactory for
fifty years back. Mrs. Stevenson is ap-
parently unusually sound in body and
mind for a woman of her age, and may
not unlikely yet celebrate several birth
days.-Troy Press, last evening.

The Canadian Manufacturer says:

Inc Canadian Manu1acturer says:
American manufactures are quite alive
to the necessity of organizing and pre-
pairing for what must be life and death
struggle for them at the ensuing session
of Congress. There is this to be said re-
garding the situation there: If the
Tariff is reduced to strictly revenue
basis-if a close approach is to be made
to Free Trade-the manufacturer must
either go out of business or reduce the
cost of production to the standard estab-
lished by competing foreign nations.
The manufacturer who has his capital
invested in factory will not sacrifice it
if he can help it; and the only way he
can help it is by reducing the wages of
labor to the standard of competing for
eign nations. 1t will be bitter pill for
American workmen to swallow, but it
will have to 90 down."

Clapp & Company's weekly lie tier says: !:
That, liabilities are eloquent when as
sets are dumb, and dollars follow con-
tracts obediently, where rails, ties, brick
and marble, turn back in despair. That,
in 30 years from 1864 to 1892 inclusive, we
exported $460,000,000 and $845, 5,000,0 600
merchandise over and above all imports.
That, this appears to indicate a total
paid by American labor to Foreign CAPT
tai during that time of 1900 million dol
lars, or A., ZOO, 900 average per annum of
Al per cent on one billion dollars, or
per cent on annual earnings of all roads
in the United States. That, Foreign
capital is more likely to invest further,
than it is to return what securities it
has. That, 1876 roads earned in last five
months IS per cent. of the total shrink
age on ITO listed stocks during the year.
That, the railroads of the United States
earn annually more money than the en-
tire shrinkage on all listed stocks and
bonds and wheat and cotton during past
year. That, the people have S113, ,00O, 900
in circulation in use as result of the
Sherman bill to So million of circulation
as result of the Bland bill, and If the
government should sell all of its coined
and bullion silver on the market, the loss
resultant of the Sherman bill would be
ten million and of the Bland bill 1877 mil
lion. That he Sherman Act Silver Ger
tificates circulating at parity with the
Worlds dollar is more desirable than a
Bland silver dollar in the treasury
vaults. That, we believe spinners have
made large contracts for cloth beyond
their cotton holdings, and have but little
stock in hand. They have led the recent
advance as we predicted and though a
little too rapid we believe cent cotton
in October is probable. That, foreign
ers would likely take all the wheat
America has on basis Of S1.75 per hun
dren pounds for our best fleur delivered
at Western Europe's consumers homes
in preference to anything we have to
sell. That, freights considered, wheat
now costs more laid down in Western
Europe than month ago, and clearance
would likely be million day for the
next go days if present or lower prices OF
wheat to consumers should prevail, and
freight room could be secured.
