THE BURLINGTON FREE PRESS THURSDAY SEPTEMBER

in commenting on third term movement
at the present time, says;
"1f Grover Cleveland could be elected for
n third term and giving successful ad-
mlnistration as he would, grow In the con-
hdence of the conservative classes and the
business interests" as he mas steadily
grown ever since he entered public life,
there would surely be "a demand for a
fourth term for him and then perhaps for
a fifth, and so on. And If TINS were not
the result with him, it surely would be
with some other man in some complication
of danger and difficulty sucn as are ever
crowding human affairs.
| The danger line has been established III
| American opinion at the third term
/ Washington set the precedent which JEFF
ferson hardened into n principle, and the
country reaiiirmed it in the case of Grant
with the additional provision that it should
not be passed even where the third tern
is not consecutive"
We do not agree with the esteemed
Reformer in regard to the confidence o
the conservative classes or of the business
interests in President Cleveland nor as Il
the danger of a demand for his reelection
for a third term, much less for fourtl
and perhaps a fifth. But we do like to SCI
a newspaper consistent and so far as thr'
term talk is concerned the Reformer l
thoroughly consistent.

The Yacht Race.

The outcome of the race for the Ameri-
cas- cup is most unfortunate one. The
cup remains on this side; but under the
circumstances which enable the English
men to claim, not indeed that Their boat
was the best of the two, but that the
English boat did not have fair chance
to do her best. The crowding of the steam
ers which Lord Dunraven made the ex-
cuse for pulling out of the race, affected
one yacht as much as the other, but the
Englishcmen will never believe it and will
no doubt maintain to tho end of time that
there was no open course ana no fair con-
test for their representative in the race.
The thing complained OF is not easily
prevented when a race is sailed just out
SIDE the harbOr of a. great sea port. The
sea is All open highway for all craft and
beyond the observance of the ordinary
rules by which vessels are governed, no
ship has the right to order another ship
off from any ocean roadway, nor has any
committee any power to compel craft to
keep away from any piece of wa ter The
committee could indeed decide that there
should be no race, til the pleasure craft
gave the yachts clear berth. They did
would have been much better for all con-
cerned If they had so decided for the sec
ond of the races, or as soon as they learn
ed that Lord DunraVen complained of in
reference of the steamers in the first race.
1t seems to have been particularly UNI
fortunate that the committee did not re-
ply to Lord Dunravens letter and assure
him that no start would be made till there
was clear course for the yachts, and
that any crowdlng should be cause for
calling the race off. This would not have
left to him the excuse which he made for
backing out of the final trial. Having in
fact no cause for complaint on Thursday
he would have taken manler course il
he had overlooked any matter of etiquette
such as the omission to reply to his letter
and gone along and sailed his yacht for al
it was worth.
But perhaps Lord Dunraven is better
satisfied with the result as it stands He
can go home now and claim that he los
the first race in part by the interference
of pleasure craft; that he fairly won tho
second but had it taken from
him by an unjust decision; anC
that he would not try agar
play. His claim, Of course. will be dis
puted. and perhaps will not be allowed b!
impartial critics, but it is great pity tina
he should have any chance to make it
1t is better to have no international zach
races than to have races which result a.

New York Republicans.

The New York republican convention at
Saratoga yesterday was harmonious
gathering, and its proceedings were car
red on in a spirit and manner that prom
fsc much for the welfare and prosperity
OF the grand old party in the Empire
state. The ticket placed in the field is one
that has been largely tried and not found
lacking in good qualities, and it will I'M
doubtedly commend itself to the SURFACES
OF the people in November.
The campaign in the Empire State this
fan will be contest of principles rather
than men to a considerable degree, how
ever. and it is assuring to study the dec
laration of principles adopted by the con-
vention The New York republicans have
placed themselves on record as favoring
good government in every department of
the States service, as well as that of the
nation, and have pledged themselves to
promote the interest of the people in every
possible way. They commend the admin
istration of Gov. Morton and point TO the
excellent record made in his admnistra-
ton Of the commemorative affairs, and
basing their claims on this record present
the name of Levi p. Morton as the candi-
date of the republicans of the Empire
State for president This declaration for
mally places GOV. Morton in the field, and
it now remains for him to say whether or
not he desires to enter the national con-
vention as the candidate of the republicans
of his State.
The resolution adopted by the conven-
ton, which will attract as wide interest
as any other in all probability at the pres
ent time. is that presented by ex-senator
Miller in favor of the maintenance of the
Sunday law and its observance 1t was
the sentiment of the convention that while
home rule was to be conceded in every
reasonable way it was not to be forgotten
that Sunday Observance was one of the
fundamental principles of the State gov
eminent, and no locality should be al
lowed to change that principle This at
titude and action on the part of the con
Vention will commend it to law-abidine
people everywhere, and while the plank
may ALLEVIATE a few votes in New York
city, it is certain to be approved by the
great mass of people throughout the State
The republicans Of New York have don,
well.

More Vigilance Needed.

1t seems strange to hear about repeated
and frequent depredations of burglars and
highwaymen in various parts of Vermont.
1t will pay our authorities to nip this in
cip.cnt lawlcSsness in the bud, and it will
require only a few conspicuous examples
10 do this. If lawless acts of this nature
are allowed TO continue with nothing on
the part of the authorities except a mild
elevation of the hands in wonderment and
surprise. it will be but a short time before
our State VIII be able to boast of its des-
peradoes as we'll as some other States in
the country. Since sneak thief was sent
to States prison for five years for carry
ing on nefar-Ous business in this city burg
lars and sneak thieves have given Bur-
l.ngton a wide berth, and it behooves the
authorities of Chittenden county to pre-
pare a hot reception for the highwaymen
who are infestng the vicinity of Sunder-
land Hollow.
The residents of Brattleboro have also
suffered widely from the depredations of
burglars for number of weeks, all sorts
of valuables having been taken from the
residences of prominent citizens, according
village. Our Brattleboro neighbors will
find their time and money we'll invested
if they take prompt and vigorous meas
ures to relieve their thriving place of the
presence of these marauders.
Our Vermont cities. villages and towns
have dwelt SO long in security from the
visitations of criminal classes that it /:
| difficult for them to realize the possibility
of an emergency which will require vgor
Gus as well as prompt measures to assur,
a continuance of the traditional gratifying
condition of affairs. 1t is assuring to not,
| that incendlaries and other offender
against the peace and security of citizen
in different parts Of the State have recent

of the authorities viii result in relevin,

The Golden Flood.

The total gold exports for the week Just
closed were $1,000, 900, and the indications
are that the week now begun will see re-
markable developments in connection with
the protection of the gold surplus in the
national treasury. 1t was confidently be-
lieved by some people that the contract
entered into by the government with the
syndicate In connection with the sale of
bonds would result in stemming the tide OF
gold flowing out of the United States to
Europe, and as matter of fact for a
few days exports of the precious metal
actually ceased 1t was not long, how
ever, before the people began to realize
the temporary character of this scheme
at best, and raids upon the gold reserve
were renewed. The total exports os the
yellow metal since the present movement
began in July have been SOS, 500, 0O0
But in spite of the fact that gold con-
tinued to be withdrawn from the treas
ury in considerable quantities, the fire.
quent deposit of that metal in the treas
ury by the syndicate to counterfeit the
raids, led people to believe that its mem
bers were determined to maintain the
reserve in accordance with Its contract
at all hazards, and confidence rested or
this understanding to a large degree
When, however, a firm interested in the
as was narrated in the FREE PRESS OF

Saturday. 1t is not to be wondered at
that financicrs manifested varying de-
grees of alarm.
What developments the present week
may bring forth canot be forotold, but
from the very nature of the case it is
not reasonable to expect a favorable out
come. The period in which the syndicate
contracted to protect the gold reserve Is
drawing toa close, October being the date
named, and this fact viii tend to create
an uneasiness on the part of foreign cred
itors. Then it is not to be forgotten
that the Withdrawals of last week culmin-
ating in the export of 900 on Satur-
day, constitute a record that has not been
equalled since January last, when the out
flow of gold from tine United states crea-
ted semi panic in foreign exchange and
led to the secret bond contract between
tho Cleveiand administration and the
Morgan Belmont Rothschild syndicate.
It is known that negotiations have al
ready been begun with reference to the
issue of another block of bonds, but while
the syndicate naturally desires to have
the sum made $50,OO00o0. in view of the
enormous profit which it is likely to real
iZe, Judging from It's previous experience
President Cleveland is said to be in favor
of limiting the issue to $25, COO 900, his belief
evidently being that this sum will enable
the administration to maintain the reserve
until Congress can afford the relief OF
which 1t stands in such pressing need.
It is the belief of many iinanciers thai
if the revenues of the national govern
ment could be made to equal the current
expenses, the raids upon the gold reserve
would cease, and this in all probability
would be the case under normal condi
tons But if the syndicate, under oul
present system Of currency could do 50
much to stop the withdrawal OF gold from
the national treasury, what is to hinder it,
members, collectively or individually, from
raiding the reserve and thus causing
necessity for another issue Of bonds? |
looks as if in addition to measures to in
crease the revenue. Congress would h
compelled at an early date to adopt legis
lation that will render such raids i'm
probable if not impossible.

A Few Signs of the Times.

While the administration organs are at
tempting to show that a smashed tariff is
not what it seems, It is well for the people
to study some Of the more significant
signs OF the times in order that they may
be able to judge for themselves as to the
effect of the widely differing tariff policies
Of the two great parties in the United
States. And in doing this it should be
borne in mind that the republican party
seeks through protection, not high prices,
burt the retention Of the homo market for
home products so that American labor can
find remunerative employment, while our
democratic friends would open our mar
kets to the world as has already been
pense of a disastrous revenue and large
and rapidly increasing deficit.
TWO interesting and significant signs of
the times were to be found in separate
paragraphs in yesterdays issue of the
Free Press and, placed together, they
enable any Intelligent man to draw very
suggestive conclusions Chauncey NJ.
Depew, in speaking of his foreign tour,
said:
The general cheerfulness and gaiety of
nations made this trip one of the most
agreeable of my life. Both in England
and on the continent there is general
prosperity and an abundance unknown for
years All classes of people are sharing
in the better times and are more hopeful
of the future"

OUTDONE DUNRAVEN.

Once beneath sun all fiery,
Skinned the British yacht Nalkyrie
over many a huge and furious
Wave from the Atlantic shore
While she plodded. sails a-llapp!nS,
To the music Of the tapping,
Suddenly there came a tapping
At Dunravcn's cabin door.
Its some interviewer surely,
Tapping a my cabin door
Only this-but what bore!"
"Ah, most surely 7 was dreaming
That with pennant gayly streaming,
And ten thousand voices screaming,
From the oVercrowded shore,
Nalkyrie III. was hailed the victor,
Thrice in succession had she licked her
Rival, though some swore she tricked her
Accidentally, no more"
Vainly dreaming thus, his lordship
Woke in disappointment sore,
Rather Sold but nothing more.
Eagerly the proud Defender
Watches for her rival slender,
Feeling confident as all
Her predecessors did of yore
That the crafty yacht designer.
John Bull ne'er produced a finer
Cup contestant, none diviner
Ever was atloat before
/ Than Americas Defender.
But Dunraven don't deplore,
/ There's a chance, but nothing more.
After protests duly rendered
And decisions justly rendered,
The fair rivals, white and stately,
! Start upon their course once more.
/ Then with pinions grandly regal
Swooping down, the mighty eagle
In three contests strictly legal
Holds the cup, just as of yore.
Back then British crew, so hearty!
wi 10
Simply that and nothing more.
Up then rose the earl so naughty,
Looking really very naughty;
Summoned to his lordly presence
Honest skipper Sycamore,
Tells him his determination,
And with much gesticulaton,
His opinion of the nation
He will never visit more.
Then to syndicate director
Iselin's cordial "au revor,"
Quoth Dunraven "neVermore."

NEW THINGS THAT ARE OLD.


In spite of the protests of inventors, and
Of those who believe they have inVesti-
gated everything since the deluge, that
there is nothing new under the sun, the
Psalmist was right when he put that
thought into the colloquial language. On
the Assyr.an slabs, and on more than one
old European fresco is seen the paddle
wheel for boats, although the propeller is
not in evidence. The bicycle seems 10 have
been known in China more than two hun
dred years ago, and the velocipede was
seen in Europe even before that. On a
pane Of the ancient painted glass in the
old church at Stoke Pogs, England, may
be seen the representation Of young fell
low astItde Of one Of these machines. He
is working his way along with the air OF
a rider who has introduced novelty, and
is the object of the unbounded admiration
of multitude OF witnesses.

A Resident of Charlotte Asks why Ihat
Town should Not Have More Advanced
Schools.

A Resident of Charlotte Asks why That
Town should Not Have More Advanced
schools.
TO the Editor Of the Free Press:
1t is safe to say that Il to "A Of our own
school children have been sent to adjoin-
ing towns for the present fall term. Par
ents who are anxious for their children to
enter preparatory schools are compelled
to send them away from home and home
influences, and at largely increased eX-
pense; and all the time we are spending
almost money enough to have these
branches taught in at least one of our own
schools.
As understand it it was the intention,
when the seminary building was bought at
the Four Corners, to fit up a room so thar
the school children of Charlotte could have
the benefit Of higher studies than are
found in the district school without going
out Of town for them. Several who advo-
Gated this purchase would never have done
so but for this object in view 1t is an
unwse policy for us to contribute to the
support of schools out of town to the dctri-
ment of our own. 1t is no small item for
those in the old districts No. - and to
bring their children to No. ) and then get
no better advantage then they have always
had with schools in their own territory
The school in No. . is all right and the
+
nothing more or less than putting three
district schools into one building, with no
advantage to advance scholars whatever.
How is there any great gain in this ? And
this question is emphasized when we con-
s.dcr the inconvenience of getting the
school children to the Corners from west
of the railroad. If any one thinks it a
small task to get their scholars that dis
tance to the common schools, let them try
it once and sec.
The school house in No. could he put
in comfortable condition without very
large expense The one in No. could hC
raised up, underpnned and made comfort
able, or one house could be built to accom-
modate both districts. Then have a com.
mon school in that section and in one OF
the rooms at the Corner, and put ad
vanced pupils in the other room with a
competent teacher.
In this way all will be served, and par.
ents will be able to keep their children al
home 1t Will cost more, but see what IL
costs to patronize the schools of Other
towns Even if parents paid a small ad
ditional tuition their children would b'
boarded at home and we all know wha
being at home means for young boys anC
girls.
| am in no sense cr.tciS.ng the action o
our school board save in general way
They are following the policy hitherto in
augurated, and are trying to make it sue
ccssful But it seems to me that we nee
something better, that we are now so cir
CumstanCed that we can have something
better vetry eas.ly-a separate school 70
Nos. and 3, one room In the seminar,
building for smaller scholars, and on
room for advanced pupils with competen
teacher. 1t Will cost more, but our boy
and girls will be at home. ~
