BISHOP HALL,

The conservation of Rev. A. c. A,
Hail as bishop of the Vermont diocese,
at Burlington on Friday last, with
impressive ceremonies, fills again the
position so admirably occupied for
50 many years by the late Bishop
Bissell. The new head of the Yer
mont diocese has been pretty we'll
introduced to the people of the state
by means of the thorough discussion
which followed his appointment, and
he will be looked upon at the begin
ming of his work as man of learn
ing and of special devotion to the
best interests of the church he re-
presents. Bishop Hall will prompt
ly begin his labors and hopes to visit
every parish IN the diocese during
Lent. He is entitled to, and will re-
ceive, a cordial welcome in the re-
ligious circles of Vermont, and all
will unite in wishing him the COM
pletest' success in his ministra tions
to the people within his charge.

THE WILSON BILLS PROSPECTS.

At this writing there is no reason
to doubt the ultimate passage of the
Wilson bill by the senate, about as it
came from the house. 1t is expected
that the sugar, coal and iron inter
ests may be heard from by way of
protest, but not with sufficient force
to bring about any material change
in the bill. The republicans in the
senate committee will have little or
nothing to do with the bill, and it
will be reported and passed there, as
in the house, as a strictly democratic
measure, and the democratic major
ity in congress will be allowed to
take, and keep, the responsibility for
the new tariff law.
This is proper enough. The oppO-
sition control both houses of con-
gress and have things their own
way, and it is eminently htting-tO
say nothing of the min ority's help
lessness under the circumstances
that IN so important matter as
trying to reform the tariff system the
democratic party should be untram-
melled in its reaping OF the benefits
or otherwise-Of the Wilson bill.
If that measure, after It becomes d
law, shall bring about any improve
ment in industrial and financial
circles, the majority in congress will
get the glory therefor. If the en-
actment of that measure tends to
deepen the business gloom, the party
represented by the majority in con-
gress will get anything but glory
therefor.
The bill has been pushed through
in spite of earnest protests against
certain features of it, and there is
every reason to believe that it will
soon be one OF the laws of the land.
The outcome viii be awaited with
deep interest, and not without a
certain amount of dread by those !
who believe the measure may affect |
leading industries disastrOusly.

WANTED-DOMESTICS.

If anything in this country needs
careful protection" it is the supply
of reliable domestics-girls who are
not afraid of the kitchen, and
who look upon general house
work" as honorable employment
and worthy of special attention. No
one will deny that the supply is
far below the demand not a village
in New England where ample proof
OF this cannot be found
1t would be of some interest to
know just how many women in the
great armies of unemployed now at
tracing attention in our cities could
find profitable work and comfortable
homes if they would but lay aside
their foolish prejudices against
working out" and their equally fool
ish prejudices in favor of uncertain en-
plovment in mills and factories. But
it is safe to say that majority of
these now idle women would
strenuously object to leaving the lin
ducements'' of city life and taking
up with permanent and more whole
some situations in the smaller towns
and villages.
There is something decidedly
wrong about the whole system, and
we believe that, while there may be
room for improvement in the
methods adopted by some house
keepers, the major part OF the trouble
can be traced to erroneous ideas on
the part OF young women as touching
domestic service. The faithful ard
competent domestic plays no small
part in the social economy, and
wins and holds for herself a position

STATE OF VERMONT, Caledonia District. S.
In Probate court, held at the Probate
office in St. Johnsbury, on the 25th day
of January, A. D. 1894.
George P. Blair, executor of the last will
and testament of Hugh Cunning, late of
Peacham, in said district, deceased, makes
application to said court for license sell
the whole of the real estate of said deceas-
ed, consisting of twelve acres of pasture

1T MIGHT INTERFERE.

Many reasons have been given by
tariff bill should not become a law,
and most of these reasons have been
directly along the line Of industrial
life or death. But the New York
Sun seeks a point against the bill
in declaring that it will operate to
do away with much of the anneXa-
ton sentiment that has been devel-
oped in Canada during the past few
years. The Sun shines smilingly on
this sentiment, and maintains that
numerous senator's and representa-
tives would also look quite favora-
bly, on any movement which prem
ised to bring about the union of
British North America and the
United States. The Sun says of the
Wilson bill in its relation to this i'm
portant question of annexation;
BY placing large number of the
natural products of Canada on the
free list, and by signally reducing
the duties on others, it offers gra tu-
itously what even the tory party at
Ottawa has protested an inclination
to secure by corresponding conces-
sions. Should the provisions of the
Wilson bill regarding Canada be-
come law, they would paralyze the
Canadian liberal party, the chief
feature of whose programme is reel
procity"
