ment alone can control IT, They have con-
trolled it by coniiscatiou. In other words,
he holds that when Congress assumed TO
dispose of captured property it had full and
exclusive jurisdiction over tho sub
iect, in the exercise of which it was
as independent Of the president as
he was of Congress in issuing pardons.
And Congress said we hold property of loyal
persons in trust to be returned on proper
proof, but as to property of disloyal persons
we hold absolutely by conliscation. In short
pardon cannot change the character OF
confiscated property 1t can only enable a
claimant to recover such proceeds as the
government holds as a quasi trustee, such as
government promised to account for, and
all such proceeds were expressly limited to
loYul persons.
The matter is still pending before the
House aud the outcome will be watched
with interest by all Nermonters. Congress
man Powers in this as in other matters has
the courage of his convictions, and the re-
spcct and influence which he has already
won in the House will be of material assist
ance to him in this contest for right.

The retirement of Col. + G.. Partridge as
United States minister to Venezuela might
deprive Vermont Of a representative in
federal position of considerable importance,
but tho Indications arc that his place will he
made good 10y the appointment of a Yer
monter well qualified to succeed him. The
many friends of the Hon Seneca Easelton
of this city without regard to party are
making determined effort to secure for
him tho appointment Of envoy extraordinary
and minister penipotentiary to Venezuela
and so far rs can be learned the chances are
strongly i'll his favor lnasmuch as Col
Partridge must retire in any event under a
democratic administration. the republican
of Vermont will feel perfectly free to work
for the appointment of good man from
our State to succeed him, and there is no
man in the administration party in the
Green Mountain State better qualified for
this position than Mayor lIaseltou.
by his ability and popularity combined
Judge Haselton has won front rank in his
| party councils in Vermont and his high
character commands the respect of all who
| know him. He is well experienced in public
affairs is a careful and diligent student a
deep and searching thinker, an able and yer
satile lawyer apolishcd and forcible speaker,
a courteous gentleman, and he is generously
endowed with that tact and caution so essen
tial to successful diplomacy
While Judge Haselton has always been a
democrat, he has shown that spirit of indie
pendence which in others has 50 highly com
mended itself to Mr.. Cleveland admins
tration. The support Of such democrats OF
national reputation and standing with the
administration as Col. b. b. Smalley and
eX-Minister +. j, Phelps ought to count
| strongly in Judge Haseton's favor, and the
unanimous approval of the republican dele
CATION in Congress from Vermont ought not
to damage his chances, to say the least II
the present administration selects judge
Haseltou for United States minister Il
Venezuela it will record a creditable ap
pontment and will make no mistake.

Inducements to Mioratc.

In view Of the experience Of the numerous
people who have gone from this State at
tractad by turing inducements to locate in
alleged gardens of the earth in various
parts of the West and Southwest only to
find that they had abandoned comfort and
plenty for uncertainty and hardships, it
would seem to be unnecessary to warn resi-
dents of Vermont against schemes of this
nature especially at this time. Experience
has shown, however, that period of bust
ness and financial depression renders many
people peculiarly susceptible to land
AMI other schemes calculated to IN
ducc them to seek new homes. Hard times
tend to make many persons DISCONTINUED
and dissatisfied with their present surround
ings They may bc out Of employment, or
their means of earning living may be
otherwise impaired, and it is natural that
they should seek to improve their condition
and circumstances. This is "a most laudablo
desire and it should be encouraged in every
legitimate way. At the same time, this
situation leads them into temptation to lend
their ears to all manner of seductive
schemes. against which under ordinary cir
cun,tances their better Judgment would
warn them, and extraordinary care should
be exercised in investigating rose colorcd in
duccmcnts offered people to induce them TO
migrate.
Land and improvement companies in va
rious Part, of the country are already cN-
hibitng new activity in flooding the mails
with literature setting forth the attractions
a.. |, nor
in Glowing terms the inducements which
they can offer new settlers. This Is partcu-
larry true of those sections where there is an
opportunity for the development of irriga-
bic lands The United States Investor
warns its readers that there are several con
Germs laying plans to operate largely i'll the
East. which have no solid foundation of
cash or land 1t is common method
of these venturesome pioneers to secure
! an option upon tract of land and attempt
to attract settlers and raise money to COM
plete their purpose at the same time. Ol
! such enterprises which the Investor had oc-
| casion to look up, one proved to have but
! twenty five acres of land paid for: another
! had more land, but its irrigation dam had
| been washed away. it had no money and nc
substantial means Of redeeming the promises
| it was freely making to prospective settlers;
another had also lost its dam, was in strait,
for money and had nothing to offer on its
property to enable men to sustain life if they
went to it,
Residents of Vermont will do well to care
fully investigate the claims of agents who
offer land to settlers at unusually low rates
1t is within the power of every person tC
verify statements of agent, before closing
bargains with theu and if those who reaC
these lines are trapped by any Of these anc
sharks they viii have only themselves t.
blame.

When it was first proposed in the Empire
State to dispose of murderers by electrocu-
ton instead of hanging, there was general
sllepticisn in relation to the merits Of this
method of executing criminals The pub
lies knowledge of electricity was not sutti-
cient to enable il to appreciate the fact that
death by means of eloctrocutiop would be
practically instantaneous, and the conSer-
