demonstration was arranged by the
socialists-labor party, the central
labor federation, district assembly
40, Knights of Labor, and the uni
ted Hebrew trades.
Everything passed off peacea bly,.
The socialists predominant ted Red
flags were plentiful. They were in
the majority on the platform and in
the procession, but here and there an
American flag was seen.
The cost TO the United States of
putting down the railroad strike in
the West is estimated by govern
ment officials at fully one million
dollars. 1t may foot up more. The
estima ties include telegraph bills,
deputy marshals' pay and transport
tation and maintenance of United
States troops. The estimates for
marshals' pay alone is from $780,
600 to 100000, and Congress, in a
few days, will be asked to appropri-
ate this as it is urgent.
One of the general managers stated
at Chicago Sunday night that the
losses of the railroads on account Of
the big strike would reach at least
$4,000, 600 and mig reach as high
as $S,0OO,OOO. General Manager St.
John of the Rock Island road said
that the total loss to his company
over the entire line would probably
be about 100000, Counsel for
several railroads are already at work
drawing up claims for financial re-
dress from the county of Cook and
the city of Chicago. The commits
sion men of South Water street will
present claims against the railroad
aggregating 100000. 1t is estima-
ted that the losses of the commission
men, direct and indirect, have been
$1,5OO,OOO.

NEWSPAPER PIRACY.

The St. Adams Messenger recently
took certain of its exchanges to task
for the wholesale appropriations
without credit of matter which had
appeared first in the Messenger
columns.
Our St. Adams contemporary is
more than half right in reading a Sc
we're lecture on this species of piracy.
But the Messenger must not feel too
sore over this matter, or expect that
its denunciatory remarks will take
immediate effect where effect is most
desired. Several Vermont editors
have grown so familiar with the use
of the shears, and so forgetful of
where credit belongs, that it will take
a number of lectures to break them of
this bad habit of helping themselves
to what does not belong to them,
from a legitimate newspaper point
of view.
We agree with the Messenger that
it is time for some of the state pa
pers to reform. There is, in every
fairly productive newspaper field,
class of news matter that especially
belongs, in one sense, to the newspa-
per which first gathers it up and
puts it in readable form; and when
such matter is deemed of any value
to paper in another portion of the
state, and is transferred bodily to
its columns, common courtesy and
business honesty demand that proper
credit be given. This is even more
applicable to so-called editorial mat
ter. The giving of srch credit does
not necessarily show a lack of ''en-
terprise"; sometimes quite the con-
trdry.
We do not know that newspaper
piracy is carried on to an alarming
extent in Vermont. There is quite
too much of it in some quarters,
however.

Ex-President Harrison, at the con-
clusion of his argument in the United
States circuit court in Indianapolis
the other day, took occasion to refer
to the strike situation as follows:-
And yet, if your honors please,
what fine tribute to our institu-
tions it is that, while mobs are
threatening a few cities, the great,
deep current, the peaceful flow of our
civil order, is not stayed for one mo-
ment, but here the courts are admin
istering the law between those who
have invoked its aid, and the general
peace of the nations scarcely ruff1ed.

Herr DOVE of Germany, the in
ventor of the bullet proof coat, has a
rival in Brooklyn carpenter named
Lehman. His bullet shield is made of
a combination Of cotton, wood,
wool and felt, treated chemically and
SO combined that shield ia inches
thick can only be penetrated by 45
calibre bullet to depth of three
quarters of an inch. The shield has
been tested and one day last week he
stood before a repeating rife in the
hands of an expert marksman, al
lowed himself to be shot at and
escaped without a scratch. Mr..
Lehman will exhibit his shield to the
government authorities in hopes of
having it adopted.

a fact that the strikers have only
themselves and Debs to thank for
this state of restitution. The auto
Gratis recent proposition to the rail-
way managers would seem to indi-
cate some alarm on his part over
this phase of the matter; but it is
too late now to prevent the suffering
among members of the American
Railway Union. The places Of most
of the strikers have been filled, and
membership in the union will hardly
be looked upon by railway mana
gers, for the present at least, as a
special recommended ton in employ
ees.
The organization of workingmen
for mutual benefit in a reasonable
and legitimate manner is a thing to
be desired, doubtless; the use of or
ganization as menace to public en-
terprises is quite another thing. The
abandonment of position and the
sacrifice of ones bread and butter at
the beck of one man, on so flimsy
pretext as that furnished by the cpl
sode at Pullman. is a piece of folly
in which the workingmen of this
country cannot afford to indulge.
The folly of the present great strike
will become more and more appar-
ent, and Debsotism will not be pop
ular.

House, by vote Of 127 to 81,

power of creditors to force a man
INTO bankruptcy when he consid-

WHAT POULTRYMEN NEED.
The Improved Webster & Han
mum Green Bone, Meat and
Vegetable Cutter.

1t is useless to argue to experienced
and successful ponltrymen the value O:
green cut bones for fowls and chicks.
They recognize and acknowledge its
superior excellence and cheapness, and
no one considers himself fully equipped
Tor the business without green bone
cutter on the premises. So it is not to
this class that these lines are addressed,
but those Of our readers who may be
termed amateurs or the practical poultry
man who has not yet been so fortunate
as to become pOssessOr of one of Webster
Hannum's machines. There are several
green bone cutters on the market but the
weight of testimony seems to be largely
in favor of this. 1t is endorsed by many
OF the leading fanciers and breeders in all
parts OF the United States, Canada and
Europe, and received the highest award
at the Worlds Columbian Exposition.
In connection with other well-known
Bone Cutters Webster & Hannum's won
first prize at the New York State Fair in
1898; first prize at the great Interstate
Fair ut Elmira, N. Y, 1898; both first
and second prizes at Western New York
Fair, Rochester, 1893; and first at more
than score of other State and local
fairs, in competition with other we'll
instance. 1t is cheap, durable and
practical, fully warranted, and the only
machine in the market that cuts green
bone fine enough for Bantoms and little
chicks. We take pleasure in calling
attention to the advertisement OF the
Webster & Hannum Green Bone Cutter,
which appears in this paper. The follow
ing letter from Prof F. E. Dawley, OF
Syracuse, N. Y, the well-known practical
fancier, writer, and lecturer on poultry
topics, and Secretary Of the New York
State Poultry Society, shows what he
thinks OF this machine. He says:
l have been using one Ct Webster &
Hannum's Green Bone Cutters for some
time, and must say it works perfectly. l
have tried three different makes of bone
as 80 pounds Of cut bone, a slight difference
in capacity makes great difference in
time, and taking this and all other points
of merit together, l can heartily recon-
mend your cutter as being far better and
more practical than any of those which l
have tried before. 1t is we'll and strongly
made, and does not look as if it was a
waste of money to buy a lOw-priced bone
cutter. l wish could show to the farmers
more particularly the great value OF green
bone and meat when cut fine, as a poultry
food. am feeding it very heavily and it
is worth at least twice or three times as
much as wheat and more than four times
feeding my young chicks much more cut
bone than ever before Git is easier to cut it
you see) and they are growing finely.
would urge every one who keeps fowls to
feed cut green bone if they are after profit,
and from experience would say. get a
Webster & Hannum cutter to do the work
with. am not at all interested in the
sale of the W. & II. cutter, and have paid
the full price for the one use, SO have no
ak to grind.
