fear that very large proportion OF the pictures
have gone back unsoid TO the artists studios.
Over production. conciding with a time OF great
commercial depression has brought its natural
result, and now that money Is once more being
made 1t is not finding its way with any great
freedom to the artists. The millionaires. as
usual follow the fashion OF the day and buy old
pictures; the bourse moyenne is content wait
and buy nothing in the artistic line. 1t will not
be altogether a bad thing II the flow OF mediocre
talent toward the art schools and the exhibition
walls is thus checked for time. All the same

CRIPPLED BUT UNDISMA YED.

1t is not often that a beaten boat
bears off the real honors of contest,
but that the Defender did that in yes
terday's futile race is undeniable.
Handicapped at the start by an unfor-
tunate collision, for which on1ookers
hold her British antagonist RESPONSE
BILE, the American boat pluckily sailed
around the course and reduced the
Valkyrie's long lead to the narrowest
of margins. 1t is we'll said that this
race has actually furnished a more
vivid demonstration of the Defenders
powers than did Saturdays race in
which she triumphed.
OF course, the collision was the re
suit of an honest error of Judgment,
which nobody regrets more sincerely
than the Valkyrie's helmsman. If the
breeze had been stronger the loss of
the topmost stay and the springing of
the spar itself would perhaps have
been Of vital moment. But in the light
air in which the boats were compelled
to beat to windward the first of the
three stakeboats which formed the
triangle, wellsetting jibtopsail and
clubtopsail were all important. The
accident materially lessened the val
ue of one of these lofty sails, and
made it impracticable to carry the
other. Moreover, the light breeze
and smooth sea were just the Valky
rie's weather. Under such conditions
she should have shown her best per-
formance in any event. That she led
her crippled antagonist less than three
minutes at the first mark is simply
marvellous "a striking tribute to the
superb seamanship of the Yankee
crew and the inherent qualities of the
Defender.

THE SCHOOL La ".

There has been, at times, consider
able discussion in the newspapers in
this State, and in public and private
gatherings, in regard to the merits
and demerits of the present school
law; but there is one thing that is ap-
parent in our present method of in
struction, and that is that it does not
seem to be sufficiently comprehen-
sive. After pupils graduate from
even our highest and best schools,
they are obliged to go to Business
Colleges in order to learn the very
commonplace things that they ought
to know, and must know to fit them
for employment in banks, offices, and
ordinary business offices. 1t is true
that book keeping is taught to a
certain extent, as, also is writing, but
pupils do not seem to get the requir-
ed finish in these branches that they
ought to have, while photography and
type writing are not taught at all; and
yet these latter have come to be just
as necessary as arithmetic and spell
ing in almost every we'll regulated
business office in the land. This is
true, not of Vermont only, but of the
country, and it seems to us that some
advance should be made in this di-
rection of teaching these branches in
our higher schools and colleges, at
least, if it is impossible to teach them
in the lower schools. They are not
as difficult of requirement as geome-
try and logic, and they are twenty
lines more necessary to be known.
To our thinking there ought to be no
necessity for supplemental schools in
which to learn these things, which
have become common branches
of a business education. The State
very generously provides free educa-
ton to all classes, rich or poor, and
there is no good reason why any one
should pay out $50 to 800 to learn
book keeping, English grammar,
photography and type writing, when
there are hundreds of competent
teachers of these branches and there
is SO great a necessity for their ac-
quirement.-Th Earth.

the gold reserve to the legal amount,
which the syndicate finally did,-a
humiliating spectacle for great and
wealthy nation indeed. Meantime we
are hearing much of the exchange of
gold for small notes "to move the
crops" but one is impelled to ask, if
the crops are being moved, as this
seems to imply, why is it that we hear
SO little of the bills to be drawn
against them which were to stop the
export of gold? Have the bankers a
firm hold on the throttle, and do they
mean, as some suspect, to force the
government to another issue of gold
bonds before Congress can meet to
say a word?

ARMENIA AND THE TURK.

Report comes of the continued
shuftiing of the Sultan. He will not
concede Armenian management to
any officer chosen by or under the di-
rection of the Western powers, but
proposes to choose subordinates in
proportion to population as between
the. two religions, admit Christians
to the constabulary or police, and
place the dragoman of each of the
three embassies in direct communi-
cation with the Turkish control.
This is characteristic of the Turk in
his political management. 1t is in no
sense a compromise between two
conflicting opinions. 1t is an entirely
distinct proposition, but as really in
consistent with the spirit and reason
of The Western demands as the ad-
ministrative practice now is. Even
the proposition to allow Christians
proportional representation among
subordinate officials is deceptive. The
effect of the prosecutions in the worst
districts has been to reduce the Chris
tians to "a minority, and whatsoever
such proportional division might
have done for them at one time, it
could do little or nothing now.
The leading peoples of the West
learned long ago that there is no re-
ligion which can be trusted with
power to govern in temporal matters.
1t doesn't matter whether it be Cath
olics or Massachusetts Bay Puritans,
the result of a union of religion and
state power is bitter, relentless, mer-
ciless, bloody minded desp otism. 1t
is probably worse with Mahometism,
for the very essence of that faith is
crazy and exclusive fanaticism.
If the Western powers really mean
to afford any relief to Christian Arme-
mans, they will never accept this
shuffling juggle of the Sultan. The
chances are that even an administra-
tor chosen by them would be often
power1ess, and often mysteriously
assassinated, if he refused to be sub
servient to the Turk. There are but
two solutions that even approximate
thuroughness. One is to expatriate
the Christians and wholly abandon
Armenia to the Turks, and the other
is t1e drive the Turkish government
wholly out of Armenia, and out of
Europe. 1t will come to this later IN
the end, and it may as well come now
as later. r.-TrdUeLler.

This is the way the United States is
capturing the markets of the world
under the beneicent sway of tariff
reform. According to the reports
of the British board of trade, exports
from that country to the United
States amounted to f13, sol, ,511 during
the first six months of the current
year This was an increase of f5,-
326, ,673 as compared with the CORES
ponding six months of 1894. During
the same period the imports to Great
Britain from this country showed a
decrease of f2,000,179 as compared to
the first six months of last year. This

States of more than fS,OO0,0O0 or up
wards of $40, 600, 600.

COUNTY COURT.

Alger VS.. Morriel was the first case
that went to the jury for verdict.
This case has become quite noted
around the court, as it was tried last
winter, resulting then in disagree
ment of the Jury.
In the spring of 1913 the plaintiff
sold the defendant all the hay in a
certain bay on the plaintiffs premises
in Irasburgh. The defendant was to
have the hay weighed and account for
it. The plaintiff claimed that he had
not weighed all the hay which he had
drawn, claiming from the size of the
bay and the space occupied that there
must have been more hay than ac-
counted for. This the defendant
denied The testimony was very
conflicting. After trial lasting four
and one half days the jury returned
verdict for the plaintiff to recover
$38.82 damages, and his costs.-The
case will go to the Supreme Court.
B. F. D. Carpenter Cook & Red
mond for plaintiff. T. Grout and John
Young for defendant.
The next case was III. D. Lindsay
Administrator VS.. the G. P. Railway.
Mr.. Lindsay as administrator seeks
to recover damages for the death of
Is months old child named Pelkay,
who while playing upon the railroad
track in the Boston & Maine yard at
Newport, in July 1894, was run over
and killed by an engine operated by
the @. P. Co in the B & M yard.
The plaintiff improved one or two
witnesses to show negligence on the
part of the defendant 90, and then
rested. The defence at once moved
for verdict on the ground that the
plaintiff had not made out case for
the jury. A lengthy debate followed
with the result that Judge Start order
ed the jury to return verdict for the
defendant to recover it's costs. This
case will also go to the Supreme
Court.
Cook & Redmond for plaintiff,
w. d. Crane and I'll. c.. Bates for de-
fendant.
The jury were then dismissed till
next Wednesday, when the trial of
the criminal cases will begin, and
promises to last some time. The grand
jury have already returned 10 true
bills. William Lathe has been indict-
ed for jail breaking and for assault
with intent to kill. The grand jury
will probably be in session till We'd
nesday.

On next Thursday the New Jersey
Republicans will assemble in conven-
ton to nominte their candidate for
Governor. The chances for his cleo
ton are brighter than those of any
Republican who has been before the
voters of that State since the war.
Democratic incompetence and dis
honesty have been SO thoroughly ex-
posed at Trenton by the Voorhees, in
vestigation that the gang of spoils-
men who have SO long controlled the
State are likely to fare badly when
the ballots are counted in the fall. No
form of trickery or thievery has been
too bold for them, and the corruption
of Tammany rule was the goal at
which Democratic power in New
Jersey seemed to be aiming.

through natures chanaels" her general
health was much improved and we are
