The recent appointment OF the
Hon. Alfred X. Evans of Cor
ham, n. H., as Judge of Probate
for the adjoining County of
Coos is a merited recognition OF
a capable and honest man. We
have known him ever since he
commenced public life; and rec,
ognize the fact his reputation as
a lawyer and a man is not simply
the result of favoring circum-
stances, but it has come through
industry and probity. The ability
with which the office has hereto
fore been filled, and the large num-
Der of capable and available men
from whom to select makes this
selection quite fiattering to the
man and gives good promise OF
security to public and private in
terestS.

that a definition of protection
was never made by any national
convention before that time. 1t
stands to-day as the only au-
thorized and authoritative utter
ance on this point. 1t is as fol-
lows:
We reaffirm the American doctrine OF
protection. We call attention To ITS
I growth abroad. We maintain that the
PROSPEROUS condition of our country Is
| largely due tn the wise revenue legisia-
ton OF the Republican Congress.
We believe that all articles which can
not be produced in the United States, eN-
cent Injuries. should be admitted Tree OF
dirty. and that on all imports coming IN
competition with the products of Ameri-
can labor. there should be levied duties
equal 10 the difference between wages
abroad and at home.
Furthermore, there can be no
doubt that the convention of
1896 will reaflirm the party's
adhesion to the policy of recip-
rocity, originated by that peerless
statesman, James G. Blaine, and
engrafted on the Mckinley bill
through his efforts. The war of
retaliation lately begun against
our great agricultural exports by
various foreign nations, notably
by Germany and Spain, is show
ing the American people its value.
The following is the utterance of
the platform of 1892 upon this
subject:
We point to the success of the Republic
can policy of reciprocity, under which
our export trade has vastly increased,
and new and enlarged markets have been
opened for the products of our farms and
workshops. We remind the people of the
bitter opposition of the Democratic party
TO this practical business measure, and
claim that, executed by Republican adj
ministration, our present laws VIII
eventually give us control of the trade
OF the world.
The Republican party was
right in 1892 upon both the tar
iff' and reciprocity. The people,
misIed by Democratic demagogy,
believed it wrong. The injurious
results following the repeal of
the tariff law of 1890 have now
convinced them that the policy
which gave us such unexampled
prosperity as that enjoyed in
1891 and 1892 cannot be
abandoned without loss to them
selves and damage to the nation.
They will vote in 1896 for its
restoration. 1t is idle at this
juncture to squabble over future
schedules. The papers which
have been indulging in this would
better turn their attention to
something tangible.

Our gold reserve has gone
wrong again. This time we are
thirteen millions shy'of the round
hundred millions which we need

would kindly explain to us our

QUARTER FINES.
A Ruling by state Auditor Hale which will
Interest Officers of the Law.

A Ruling by state Auditor Hale which Will
Interest Oficers of the Law.
Section 2 Of act No. 156 of the last Leg
islature repealed section 1855 of the Re
vised Laws, which allowed arresting and
prosecuting officers one-quarter of the
fines imposed in criminal cases. The act
took effect December /, at which time
there were pending IN several counties OF
the State a number of cases in which
fines had been imposed by the lower
courts but which had been appealed
Here in Chittenden county, the Septem
Der term of court was still in session, anG
when it adjourned, some days aiterward
many of these appeals had not been en-
tered for trial. The fines and cost:
originally imposed were thereupon col
lected from the respondents. The fines
amounted to about $1,000 and under thu
old law $3.50 would go into the pocket:
of the arresting and prosecuting officers
The question is whether an act goins
into effect December l can be made ap
plcable to cases where the fine was i'm
posed but not paid before that day. Thu
matter was brought to the attention o
State Auditor Hale, who rules that, unde
the act passed by the last Legislature
this right to moiety does not attach i,
any event unless the fine is actually pal,
in before December l. If the fine is i'm
posed before, but not paid till after, tn
moiety should not be paid.
By making this ruling Mr.. Hale take
a safe position as auditor sworn to keel
a watchful eye on the States money an,
throws the responsibility of constituting
the law on to the courts, since some on
of the officers directly interested in tn
ruling will naturally bring a test case

A Quick Dissolution.

1t is doubtful if ever before in
the history of mankind hasit had
the opportunity to see in so short
a period the crumbling to pieces
of a mighty empire and the down.
fall of one of the Oldest dynasties
on earth. History has given us
this lesson many times, but des-
tiny took her time about it, and
often required long years to con-
.summate her work. In the case
of China the absolute break
down of all resisting power and
the collapse of every internal re-
source are startlingly rapid, and
confuse the judgment by tumul-
tuous suddenness. 1t does not
take much acumen to see that
the ultimate secret of this amaz-
ing decline of an empire is moral
China has every natural resource
and a teeming population that
has on more than one occasion
proved itself capable of heroic de-
tense. But it has no raisor
d'etre for existence outside Of
commercial or political policy
1t is very much like one of those
bodies preserved Theoretically
which, when exposed to the air
crumble to dust. China has lost
all faith in her own ability tt
struggle against the stream o
tendency, and her besotted rulers
are the victims ofselfsh European
agents, who are counseling he1
to her own extinguishment.

A Ridiculous Dispute.

A struggling debate has been
irregularly carried on in the news
paper press for some little time
as to what the Republican party
will do concerning the tariff
when, as is expected, it shall re-
turn to full power in the nation.
That event cannot occur until
the Presidential and Congress
ional elections of 1896. 1t is evil
dent to any intelligent person
that speculations are idle con-
corning the specific form of a
tariff measure to be framed by a
Congress which will not meet,
unless convened in extra session,
until three years have elapsed.
No one can tell what the condi-
tons of production may then be
regarding any of the great in
dustries. 1t seems reasonable to
assume that a new tariff bill will
be prepared, suited to the condi.
tons then prevailing; but be-
yond this nothing is certain.
But while it is impossible fol-
any one to say, so far in advance
what duty will be imposed OF
any given article, it is quite SAT-
to assume that the Republican
party will not abandon the pro
tectiye principle. We do not be
lieve that the national Republi
can convention Of 1896 will
change the definition of the doc
trine Of protection which was lai,
down at Minneapolis in June
1892. 1t is a remarkable fac

Cold and Appetite.

Professor Raoul Pictet, as is we'll
known, has found methods by which
exceedingly low temperatures may be
obtained. While the Arctic regions
provide some fairly cold weather-say
60 or IS degrees below zero Fahrenheit
Monsieur Pictet is able to improve
on natures achievements, and when
he wishes $50 or $50 degrees below
zero, he can obtain it. HOW this is
done it is unnecessary here to state. 1t
is interesting to study the effects OF
such low temperatures on animal life.
Dogs, when introduced to such IN
environment, stand it WE'LL provided
they ave covered in blankets and wool,
and provided the experiment is a
short one. But curious fact is that
when tlaay come out they are fearfully
hungry.
Having seen that dogs stood the eX-
pertinent well, Monsieur Pictet tried
the effects of the intense cold upon
himself, and went down into his SNcold
pit" carefully dressed in warm cloth
ing and fHrs. The temperature was
kept steadily at 40 degrees below
zero, centfgrade-166 degrees Fahren-
heit.
After four minutes Monsieur Pictet
felt very hungry, and was more so
when he put an end to the experiment,
coming out of the cold after eight Min
utes. He took hearty meal and en-
joyed 1t greatly; and this seemed all
the more strange because for years he
had not known what it meant to
be hungry. Appetite was q word
without meaning to him, and the d.
sestiou of each meal was commonly
such a painful process that he ate very
little, and never enjoyed it.
He repeaed the cold treatment daily
for week, and after eight cold baths
Of eight OF ten minutes each, his pain
and distress after eating vanished. APP
petite was restored and digestion be-
came painless.
Since these experiments, now some
months old, Monsieur Pictet has been
in excellent health, and he thinks much
may be accomplished for the relief Of
certain diseases by the cold treat
ment, which he calls frigotherapy.
