IN CONGRESS.

THURSDAY-The senate talked tariff.
Mr.. Hale of Maine laid stress on the
benefit which the proposed bill would
confer on the sugar trust, putting $40
600, 600 into its pOcket.-In the house the
general appropriation bill was passed.
FRIDAY-The discussion of the metal
schedule of the tariff bill was completed
in the senate, and the house devoted all
its time to war claims from Southern
states.
SATURDAY-The feature of the day in
the senate was the attempt of Mr.. Hill
to get lead ores on the free list, which
was voted down. The New York SEN
ator aired his views as to democratic
harmony on the tariff question.-In the
house the repeal Of the ten per cent state
bank tax was taken up, and Mr..
Springer spoke against the bill, urging
that state bank issues did not meet the
demands of business or protect the
public from heavy losses.
MoNDAY-The senate had an animated
discussion over duty on lumber, and the
house considered a few District of
Columbia bills.
TUEsDAY-In the senate debate on the
tariff, Mr.. Proctor spoke particularly of
the effect of bill upon trade relations
with the rest of the American henis-
phere and its bearing upon the Canadian
question. He declared, that, politically,
Canada was, if not a menace, at least
nuisance to this country, and main
tanned that we might yet have serious
trouble With her-The house considered
the repeal of the state bank tax.

HILL AND HARMONY,

In the senate on Saturday, during
a discussion over putting lead ore
on the free list, Mr. Hill took occa-
sion to reprove Mr.. Gorham for say
ing that the party was united on the
tariff bill. The measure, Mr.. Hill
declares, is not satisfactory to him,
or to several other senators, nor
could it be so long as it contained
a remnant of the populistic income
tax" Mr.. Hill is aggressive, and
does not mince matters. but his mo-
ton to put lead ores on the free list
was turned down by big majority,
and he still has large fight on his
hands
This absence of harmony which
the New York senator hints at has
been apparent to the country at
large for some time past; and it is
this very failure of the party to get
together in agreement on any one

A POTENT INDUSTRIAL ACTOR.

In a recent number of the Review
of Reviews, Engineer Ferris, who
designed the Ferris wheel which was
so prominent a feature OF the World s
condition which will determine the
relative expansion of towns and
cities in the next decade is the
presence of water power. The whole
problem of electricity is one Of cheap
generation. Any city or town OF
this country which has waterfall
within an available distance, has. so
to speak, a gold mine. Water power
means the minimum of cheapness in
the generation of electric power"
Taking Mr.. Ferris statement for
what it is worth-and certainly he
is most competent authority on such
a subject-there is in what he says
mt for several Vermont towns to
crack. If water power" is syn
onymous with gold mine" then
many a community is this state is
rich. St. Johnsbury, Montpelier,
Bellows Falls, Swanton, and a
number of smaller towns can boast
of excellent water power. Some of
this energy furnished by nature is be-
ing proftably used for industrial
purposes but the proportion utilized
is very small compared to the vast
amount of power that is allowed to
run to waste Vermont should take
advantage, to a much greater extent
than she does, of these splendid facili-
ties placed at her disposal, and dig
out of these gold mines" to be
found in so many of her towns larger

NICARAGUA CANAL.

Notwithstanding the neglect Of
congress to take charge of the build
ing of the Nicaragua canal it is en-
couraging to note that America n
capitalists do not propose to aban-
don this great enterprise. The Mic
aragua Canal Construction Compa-
ny, which failed last fall, is being re-
organized, enough money having
been subscribed to pay all outstand-
ing debts and leave funds in the
treasury to commence work again.
Should congress fail to help them
these patriotic citizens are prepared
to go ahead with the work without
government aid.
The Maritime Canal Company of
Nicaragua, which has engaged the
other company to build the canal,
has just held its annual election and
Col. Franklin Fairbanks of this place
was elected director for three years.
The Suez canal which was built by
the French soon passed into Great
Britain's hands. 1t would be great
blow to American prestige and pro-
gress if the ownership of this canal
should ever pass out of our control.
That 1t is not a party question is
seen in the fact that it has for its
champions in congress such states
men as Senator's Sherman of Ohio
and Morgan of Alabama. If all
the congressman held the patri-
Otto views of these two gentlemen
the Nicaragua canal would be cham
pioned by congress and forever kept
in America s control.

If the Brooklyn Eagle may be
looked upon as representing the New
York state democracy, that par
ticular branch of the party has
decided views of its own concerning
the tariff bill. This particular Eagle
flaps its wings and shows its disgust
at present proceedings thus:
IF forced to choose between evils,
the New York democracy would far
rather let McKinleyism remain, with
republicanism responsible for it,
than tolerate a trust-pudding ag-
gravated by highway robbery, as
the senate bill, plus the income tax
attachment, now is. The New York
democracy will yet preserve the
party from the conspiracy of sena-
torial agents against its national
principles"

THE PEOPLE ARE TO BLA ME.

Pledged delegations to any con-
vention are one of the Objectionable
features of modern politics. A nom
mating convention is not a ratihca-
ton meeting, but it often becomes so
because the whole SLATE" has been
so we'll arranged beforehand that
the balloting in the convention is a
mere matter of form.
Generally a man IS selected to be
run for governor long before the
state convention and his nomination
at the convention is simply necessary
to conform to our political system.
But this year the politicians have
concentrated all their efforts upon
the nt-gOvernOr, and they
have selected their candidate and are
now waiting for their cuckoo follow
ers to rush him through the con-
ventiOn.
The people are to blame for these
attempts to force a candidate upon
them. Unpledged delegates to the
convention should be chosen and
the selection of lieuten ant-governor
should be left to the convention, and
not to the politicians and the news
papers.
The position taken by our fellow
townsman Henry c. Bates upon this
matter has made friends for him all
over the state. He is DESTROYS of
having the ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS chos-
en- at the convention and will cheer
fully abide by the result. A reaction
against the machine methods of the
other candidates has already begun
and Mr.. Bates chances are imprOv
ing every day. The people are leav-
ing the politicians and propose to do
a little thinking for themselves. This
sign Of the times is tull Of encourage
ment.

THE STRIKING MINERS.

The miners demand that they
intendent. This the owners refuse. >"
The above quotation gives one cause
of the serious troubles now existing
in the mining regions of Colorado.
Another cause is a difference over
one hours work per day between
miners and mine owners. In
Pennsylvania, in Illinois, in Ala
bama there is trouble. In the latter
state a commissary check system
and the hiring of negro laborers in
place of unruly white men dis
charged are considered sufficient
reasons for a small-sized rebellion.
In Pennsylvania and elsewhere the
striking miners, who are union"
men, insist that non-union men shall
not take the places they have volun-
tarily abandoned, while the mine
operators take unto themselves the
privilege of saying whom they shall
employ.
1t is the same old story over and
over again, and the militia are call
ed out to settle by force of arms a
dispute which reasonable and intel
ligenu action on the part OF en-
plOyees would have made impossible.
Men have a right to say whether
they will work for this or that wage.
But they have not the slightest right
to say that the employer shall not
fill their places with men who are
willing to work for the wages and
upon the conditions to which the
strikers object.
The strikes in the mining regions
are untimely, and wrong in principle,
and the conduct of the union" lead
ers in melting the strikers to violent
attacks on person and property
simply weakens their own cause and
forteits the sympathy of the people
generally, who believe in a fair
measure of compensation and a
reasonable limit to working hours,
but must condemn all such riotous
demonstrations as are claiming at
tention In the above named states
There are. in this enlightened age,
more convincing arguments than the
torch and the shotgun, and the
governors of Pennsylvania, Illinois,
Colorado and Alabama have been, it
seems to US, all too slow in bringing
to bear upon these riotous mobs the
military force at their command.
Had the strikers known, by official
proclamation, that the first capture
of train, the first torch applied to
property, or the first indica ton of
attack on non-union workmen
would bring out the strongest power
of the state against them, they
would have been less likely to assume
the role OF wreckers.

gate, Sheffield, Sutton, Walden,
Waterford and Wheelock, two dele
gates each; Kirby, Newark and
Stannard, one delegate each; St.

position. He has made an excellent
working record in congress and
shown himself to be in close sym
