oUR COLLECTORS AND THE CHINESE

Treasury officials have been look
ing into the custom house affairs at
Burlington, in connection with the
smuggling of Chinese into this cOun-
try, and it is gratifying to note tina t
the result of the examination is credit
able to Collector Smalley. Super
vising Agent Crowley states that
there is mo evidence to suggest,
much less to prove, that the officials
of the customs house were engaged
in the practice of admitting these
fraudulent immigrants contrary to
law. Our examination of the Office
relieved both Collector Smalley and
his subordinates from blame in this
regard and we found the accounts of
the office all right"
Quite furry was created a short
time ago by rumors that the Yer
mont customs officials had been lax
in their duty with reference to the
Chinese question, and it will be re-
lief to all concerned to have an au-
thoritative statement to the contrary
from special agents of the admins
tration.

EDUCATIONAL REPAIRS.


Extensive repairs, amounting to
$1,000 or more, have been made upon
the school house in the village. 1t has
been painted throughout, inside and
out; connection has been made with
sewer, and convenient closets built
IN the cellar. These closets are after
the pattern of the Union school
house in St. Johnsbury and give
promise of working admira bly,. The
school is now In successful opera ito n,
having five departments beside an as
sIstant for the principal. A new tea
ture has beer added-music being
taught in all the grades by an expe-
rienced teacher.
A COURSE OF TEN ENTERTAINMENT
The lecture course for the coming
winter has been completed. Ten fine
entertainments have been secured.
The course will open Oct. 80. with a
lecture by DR.. Wilets, who so highly
pleased our people last winter His
subject will be The Model Wife. :"

rably advertise the entire course.
Among the rest of the course are the
Schubert Quartette of Chicago, the
Lotus Glee Club, Kelley's Tableaux

IN COUNTY CoURT-A JURY's REMARK
ABLE DEED.
County court is in session, now on
its fourth week. In criminal ma tiers.
St. Johnsbury Caledonian. [volume] (St. Johnsbury, Vt.) 1867-1919, 1894-09-27

| one man has been sent to the house
of correction for one month, with
fine of $500, for selling liquor. He
| pleaded guilty to one second offense.
| Another was sent for two months
for stealing some clothing from the
Arlington House, where he stopped
over night. He was captured and
after remaining here in Jail some six
months, pleaded guilty to charge of
petit larceny.
In one respect, as an old darkey
wisely remarked, THE world do
move" A jury here has agreed and
found an offender guilty of intoxica-
ton. Jack" Beede of Albany APP
pealed to the county court, and his
trial took up two days. There were
! the usual witnesses that swore he
was drunk. Jack said he was not.
and put on certain evidence to show
he was not. The jury at first were
divided, but al length rendered YER
dict of guilty. An incident in this
trial showed very plainly what class
of men the defence wanted or did not
want as Jurymen. In examining one
of the jurors, the counsel for the re-
spondent asked the juror if he was a
member of the Law and Order
League at North Troy. On receiving
a firm and prompt affirmative an
swer, the lawyer as promptly replied,
"You are excused" Too bad, that
an otherwise fully competent juror
should be thus disqualified by an
open, honest endorsement of temper
ance, virtue and good order.

Breckenridge has decided to accept
the inevitable, and will not contest
the nomina ton of Owens in the Ash
land district of Kentucky. The de-
feated candidate is wise in his deci-
sion. Under existing circumstances,
the making an additional spectacle
OF himself in a push for congressional
donors, in spite OF a popular verdict
against him, would be an extremely
foolish move. Retirement to private
life is what is demanded of him Just

A HOPEFUL CONTEMPORARY.

The Boston Post does not see any
great significance in the recent cleo
tions in Vermont anG Maine. 1t be-
lieves that 1.-THE November elections
will be decided much as other cleo
tions have been decided, and any re-
publicans who take stock in the talk
of a twenty FIVE per cent reduction
of the democratic vote will be sur
prised when the votes are counted"
The extraction of any comfort out
of the elections in the two states
named is a feat which only the most
sanguine mind could accomplish; but
it seems very probable that a large
surprise will be given the Post when
the votes are counted"

Japan seems determined to press
on vigorously toward China S
capital, and is preparing for hot
attack on her enemy. An order for
eighty thousand more troops is
proof of her purpose, and the
recent decisive victory over the
Chinese forces leads to the belief that
the latter nation is no match for her
more civilized opponent. The Euro
pean powers talk seriously of inter
fering with the further progress OF
the war; and unless such action is
taken Japan will apparently have
her own way in dealing out dis
cipline to her foe. Coreans are
happy over the success that has thus
far attended the Japanese army, and
the King of Corea has very lately
taken occasion to render special
homage to the mikado as the deliver
er of his little KINGDOM
When the legislature opens a con-
test will be made over the appoint
ment OF adjutant and inspector gen
eral. There seems no particular
reason why Gen. T. S. Peck of Bur
lington should not be reelected ex-
cept that somebody else wants the
office. The long and faithful service
of Gen. Peck entities him to another
term and his many friends on this
side of the state hope to see him re-
elected.
