matter ends. The meeting closes, the
"earnest moral support" fails to materi-
aize and the rum. selling goes on as be-
fore.
1t would be harsh, perhaps, to call
these people humbugs; but they do not
fall far short of meriting that designa-
ton. They insist that the law is all
right, but they seek to procure its en-
forcement without harm to themselves,
although the law makes it the business
of citizens who desire its enforcement
to do certain things - things which they
are afraid to do. The long and short of
it is that prohibition will not prohibit
just so long AS temperance people shrink
from undertaking the labor of carrying
out the provisions OF the law; and all
efforts ON their part to load down some
one else with the disgrace of its nor
enforcement will avail nothing A
little real work would he of vastly
greater account than hours of talk or
yards of resolutions.

Although there are enough ugly out
breaks of railroad men in the western
country every day, the great strike that
tied up the railroads centering in Chica-
go for two weeks is at an end. AS was
to have been expected, the men got the
worst of it. The railroads find that they
can do business with much smaller
number of hands than were employed
and the strike affords them a good eX-
cuse for ridding themselves of superflu-
Gus helpers. Debbs, the head of the
American Railway union and the insti-
gator of the strike, is in Jail for contempt
in having refused to respect the injunc-
ton of the United States court, as are
a number of his chief abettors. They
refuse to furnish bail. The Pullman men
now want to go back to work and are ap-
parently willing to accept whatever
terms the company will grant.

THE SEWER QUESTION.

special village meeting has been
called by the trustees at the town hall
on the evening of Monday next, the 23d
inst, at 80 o'clock, to discuss and act
upon proposal to begin forthwith the
construction of a portion of the system
of sewers that has been planned. FIX
actly what the trustees and their advis-
ers think should be done now in the
direction of building sewers is told fully
IN an article printed on the third page
of this paper. Estimates of the cost of
the work are also there given. Every
voter should carefully look over the re-
ports of the engineers and thus prepare
himself to vote intelligently. Moreover,
he should attend the meeting and vote.
The matter ie of great importance and
should have the attention of all who are
interested In their own welfare or in that
of the village.
A proposition will be made to author
ize the building of the two sewers des-
cribed to appoint a committee of ten sub
stantial citizens to have the work of con-
struction in charge, and to appropriate
about $500, the money to be raised by
issuing 8 per cent village orders to ran

a considerable number of the good
people of Burlington were deeply stirred
by the open sales of liquors in that city
during the celebration on the 4th inst,
and so meeting was called at the city
hall Friday night to discuss the situa-
tion. Several wel-ntentoned gentle
men made extended remarks. All
agreed that the law had been violated
and that it ought to be enforced. The
only tangible result of the gathering
was the passage of the following resolu-
ton:
heSOlved, That we pledge to the city
government of Burlington our earnest
moral support in the strict and eflectual
enforcement of the prOhibitory law.
This reads well, but what does it
amount to? Nothing whatsoever. Ear
nest moral support is fine phrase, but
it means little. Rum is sold III Bur-
lington and Rutland and Middebury and
elsewhere in the State simply because the
people of Burlington and Rutland and
other places do not care enough about
the enforcement of the law to go to work
and enforce it. The law as it stands is
as full of points for the implement of
rumselers as a hedgehog's skin is of
quilts, and it needs only to be put in mo-
ton to stop the business. But no one
has "sand" sufficient to set the machine
ry in operation. Fear of losing customers
If theV are in business or of falling in
popularity if they are in politics deters
very many men Of honest temperance
sentiments from setting about i'm the only
way they know will be eflectual to en-
force the law Their easiest way of
sinking the responsibility for the nom
enforcement of the law in their commu-
mites Is to meet and talk and resolve; it
also has the advantage of maintaining the
regulations of the takers and resolyers
as temperance men, and hurts neither
them nor anyone else. The talk usually
covers the enormity of the traffic, which
is not disputed by any sane person; the
money waste of drinking, which is
equally self-evident, or the duty of en-
forcing the law, which no one having the
least comprehension of citizenship or of
the provisions of the law cUuld for
moment doubt. Then come resolutions
dealing with ''earnest moral support" or
berating some indefinite 'officer of the
law" for failure to perform a duty"

HAMMOND, BUSH & co.

The second and third meetings of the
creditors of the firm Of Hammond, Bus h
& Co. were held at the Office of the
probate court in Middlebury on Wednes-
day The firm, which became insovent
in May. 1893, had headquarters in Orwell
and its liabilities were about S450,000.
There were present at Wednesdays
meeting Hon. j. w. Cramton of Rutland,
the assignee: Lawyers Moloney of Rut-
land and Dornherg of Ticonderoga, rep
resenting creditors; G. NJ. Wilds, Esq,
the attorney for the members of the firm,
and considerable number of the cred
tors.
The time was devoted chiefly to the
rectitication of the schedules of assets
and liabilities and of claims. As there
was some question as to the interpreta-
tion of the sections of the statute gov
erning the matter of discharges of in
solvents and the lawyers wanted more
time to look up the law, the meeting ad-
iOurned by consent of all parties inter-
ested to the Dist of August, when such
further proceedings will be had as may
then be determined upon.

VERMONT REPUBLICANS AND SILVER.


The platform adopted by the Republic
cans of Vermont at their State conyen-
tion IN Montpelier last month contained
this paragraph relative to the so-called
"silver question:
We favor the continued and extended
use of silver in our circulation, within
the extent of the ability of the govern
ment to preserve the present parity be-
tween gold and silver. TO this end we
will hail with enthusiasm all efforts of
the government to obtain an agreement
with all other commercial nations to Sc
cure the free coinage of silver on any
proper ratio.
Certain of our esteemed State cOntem-
poraries are very much disturbed be-
cause of the partys action. They say,
among other things, or at least one of
them does, that the resolutions were
read Just as the delegates were leaving
the hall, so thar none heard them and
that consequently they do not represent
the deliberate opinion of the members of
the party. That may all be true, for
aught we know to the contrary, bat it
is questionable whether the same resO'
luton would not have been adopted if Il
week had been given to the discussion
of it, The resolution was drawn with
great care and deiberatiOn by promi-
nent men of the party, who could have
given excellent reasons for the faith
that was in them, had they been asked
SO to do. 1t will be noted by the atten-
tive reader that the resolution is very
guarded. 1t does not commit the party
to unlimited coinage of silver, but only
"within the extent of the ability of the
government to preserve the present parity
between gold and silver" So much for
the origin and meaning of the resolution.
There are two aud probably very many
more excellent arguments for the passage
of just such a resolution as that quoted
by the Republicans of Vermont and of
every other State in the union. One is that
unless some recognition of the utility of
silver as money is made the party will, in
the Judgment of astute Republican poll
ticians, be unable to carry single State
west of the Mississippi in the next presi-
dental election. If these men are right in
their notions of the condition of things
in the West, then the party must concede
something to those sections or else 90 to
the wall.
Moreover, it is believed by those who
are in a position to know that not less
than twice as much silver as is now in
circulation or IN the government vaults
could be coined by the government with
out destroying the parity between that
metal and gold
In view of these considerations alone,
not to mention others, the resolution Un-
der discussion does not appear to be of
an extremely incendiary character.

THE WEATHER,

Those who have kept track of the
weather say that Monday was the first
rainless day in 2S days. Since Monday
no rain has fallen hereabouts and it has
been quite hot. The farmers have been
able to make great headway with their
haying, which had been seriously delay
ed by the frequent showers. Many of
them will nearly finish before the end of
the week if the dry weather continues,
as it promises to do. The government
signal service officials make the cheerful
announcement that very warm wave
is coming from the West and will keep
this region up to high temperature to-
day, tomorrow and Sunday.

Bradstreet's of Saturday has an inter-
esting statement of the comparative
prices OF staple articles now and three
years ago. 1t says:
An examination of staple prices COM
pared with the middle of 1891, following
the Barring embarrassment, indicates that
flour has declined 10 per cent, wheat 10
per cent and corn 81 per cent. while oats
are 80 per cent higher than three years
ago, and changes in prices OF butter
and cheese are less significant. No such
radical movement is exhibited in prices
for print cloths, sugar. coffee, cotton, re-
fined petroleum and anthracite coal, but
raw wool has dropped 81 per cent, pig
iron, bessemer and anthracite % per cent,
Bullets 27 per cent and bituminous coal 30

Mr.. f. j. Mathews and family, who
live mile east of the village, had dis
agreeable but on the whole fortunate ex-
perience with lightning on Friday. A
thunder storm came up shortly after
noon and during its progress the light
ming struck one of the corner posts of
the house. 1t tore off the shingles from
that part of the roof, ripped the plaster
ing from the ceiling and wall of the
chamber and did some damage to the
room on the main floor. The family and
several guests, II in all, were at dinner
at the time. The dining room is in anoth.
er part of the house. The dinner had
been delayed because of the storm, which
had interfered with haymaking; but for
the delay more or less of the people
would have been in the room where the
bolt came down.

There is brisk competition between
Senator Proctor of Vermont and Senator
Cullom of Illinois as to which of the two
looks the more like Lincoln, writes a
Washington correspondent. For years
the Illinois man has proudly claimed the
distinction of most resembling the great
martyred president of any one in Wash
ington, and there has been none to dis
pute. Mr.. Cullom has even gone so far as
to conduct mild campaign for the Repub-
lcan presidential nomination on the
strength of his Lincoln likeness. But
since Senator Proctor has shaved off his
! flowing beard there are new set of Lin
coin features in the senate chamber
The Vermont man Is taller and thinner
than his Illinois rival, and with his
smooth face has a very marked Lincoln
look, so much so that Cullom is in dan.
ger of losing his laurels.

that the news is sensational rather than
true. 1t seems to be the fact, though
