The mystery concerning Minister
Haselton's recall has not been ex-
planned. He endeavored to get hear
ing at the state department, but it was
refused him and lie resigned in obe-
dience to the governments request. 1t
is quite generally agreed that some-
thing was wrong in the conduct OF
Mr.. Haselton at Caracas, but his
friends refuse to believe that it was
what Admiral Meade alleged. The
climate may have affected him unfa-
vorably, or the sea baths he took may
have had a bad influence on his health.
Certain it is that the Haselton describ-
ed by Admiral Meade is not the Has
elton who went to, Venezuela from
Burlington eleven months before, en-
dorsed by every prominent man in
Vermont of both parties as gentle
man of the highest ability and char
acter. Either Admiral Meade exag-
gerated, or else something produced
a great change in Mr.. Haselton. His
friends prefer to believe that he is in
no degree to blame for his misfortune.

The viyacious Burlington News
s'blesses our dear little heart" but
thinks we are mistaken in our belief
that human nature will have to un-
dergo radical changes before the small
Vermont towns will yield their ad-
vantage in the matter of Legislative
representation. 1t cites the example
of Massachusetts,, which adopted the
district plan, based on population,
many years ago. We are not conycr-
SAINT with this case, but in return We
point to Connecticut, where '.rotten-
borough" system ten times worse than
VermoHt's is fastened on the people
and all efforts to loose it have proved
unavailing. The News admits that
Vermont conservatism will have to be
overthrown before its plan prevails
and that is no small undertaking, as
the Ne,rs rightly estimates. Our sym
pathies are with our sprightly contem-
porarysysV trust it viii continue to
flourish until-well, until the towns of
Podunk, Squag Hollow and the rest
consent to abandon the right to honor
one of their 'sleading citizens" by
sending him to bask in the charmed
circle at Montpelier at three dollars
per diem, payable out Of the state
treasury, not to mention the thought
of sending his name laundering down
through the ages.
Now that "Bloody Brides Waite"
Of Colorado has been retired and An
archist Altgeld of Illinois in some de-
gree squelched, South Carolina claims
the 'stinction Of having the prize crank
governor. His name is Evans. He is
the protege of Tillman, himself high
up in crankdom. The Democrats of
South Carolina some time ago set out
with the avowed purpose of multiplying
the fifteenth amendment by passing
a registration law that would dis
franchise the negro. Judge Gotl' Of
the United States Circuit Court has
promptly pronounced it unconstitu-
tiona. Evans and the other hot
heads of the state are executing war
dance, cracking their heels together
and doing their best to terrorize the
Supreme Court into reversing Judge
Gof7s decision. They threaten dire
things if they can't have their way.
Evans has issued proclamation in
which he practically says that the ne
gro shall be Acknowledgements
ably if the Supreme Court permits,
but he shall be disfranchised at any
event. The Supreme Court and the
country at large can afford to smile at
the spectacle these hot-bloods are max
ing. If the law they have passed is
unconstitutional, the court will so de-
eide in spite of all threats and their
mandate will be final, if it takes force
TO execute it.

1t will be remembered that at the
former hearing before the United
States Supreme Court on the question
Of the constitutionality of the income
tax law, certain portions Of the law
were declared unconstitutional and
the justices were evenly divided in
opinion concerning the remainder Of
the act. Justice jackson was absent
from the bench. A re-hearing was
granted on the whole question before
the full bench. The decision was
handed down Monday. 1t finally dis
posed of the vexatious subject. The
law is declared unconstitutional as a
whole and the act is void. The court
stood fom. justices for the law and
five against it.

WI. Babb, in his Cedar Rapids
speech mentions the demonetization
of silver by Germany, France and
India, and that owing to its low bull
lion value, free coinage would flood
the country with foreign silver. Is
candidate Babb not aware that the
government mints in India are coin.
ing al. the silver they can obtain at
the old ratio of 16 to l. The luints
there have simply been closed to out
siders, while government which is
represented by ali East India trading
company has monopoly at the
mints and coins into rupees all the
silver bought in this country at 81 to
90 cents al ounce, and coins into full
ly twice that sum in legal tender
money. The prices to which our
financial legislation has reduced sill
yer bullion enables the English to buy
our silver at one half what it is worth
when coined into rupees for the trade
of India, these rupees paid out in
that country to farmers and laborers
has enabled England to build up the
agricultural interests of that region
in the production of wheat and GOT
ton to on extent that the farmers and
planters will find that country always
a competitor in the Liverpool mark
cts, to the permanent detriment of
these occupations in the United
States. The restoration of silver to
coinage and to full legal tender in the
United States will not wipe out this
competitor but it will arrest the
further growth of this inequality.
The East India company through the
British government obtains our silver
at price which enables it to lay
down at Liverpool wheat. as fine as
this country produces, at about Is
cents bushel and cotton at less thu n
8 cents pound, and the financial
policy of the two old parties is re-
sponsible solely for this condition.
But should the prediction that the
full reconciliation of silver would
make this country would make this
country the dumping ground of silver
be true, what class would be injured
thereby? If foreign silver comes to
our mints for coinage the money must
be used in the United States in the
purchase of products and properly
which would enhance prices, stimu-
lote production, increase wages, and
tend to the general welfare and pros
perity of the people. This condition
would be no injury to any but the

do;n,, g .ional Congress on tho Sill
,ntS; vcr Question.
H. ..NTA, Ca, Oct. 15.-Soon after
Farmers National congress, which
met here last week and has been hold
ing daily sessions since, resumed
its sitting Monday morning a
sensation was sprung in the form
of fight on free silver, which
resulted in the complete de-
feat of the 16 to forces. by vote of
251 Ola to 1O4 STA the congress refused
to insert the words ''at ratio not to
exceed 16 to 1" in resolution asking
congress to use both gold and silver on
parity, and calling for an interna-
tional conference on the monetary
question.
The resolution was one which had
just come from the committee on rcso-
buttons and was reported favorably. 1t
was offered by Mr.. j. G. Offut,
prominent delegate from In
diana. In substance it depre-
Gated the present condition of
finance in this country, and called
upon the president of the United States
to call an international congress of all
nations willing to unite in the equal
use of both gold and silver. Then the
free-silver delegates wanted the para
graph changed SO as to read willing
to unite in the equal use of both gold
and silver at ratio not to exceed
16 to l."
Numbers of delegates jumped to
their feet, and it was soon evident that
the congress was opposed to the
amendment. The question was first
put viva voce, and the nays had it evil
IDENTIFY. A vote by states was called
for and resulted in the rejection of the
104 5-14.
Georgia's delegation was divided.
The states known as the silver states
favored the amendment and the east,
the north and the south voted almost
solidly against it. The fight was made
squarely on the merits of the question
and the issue was in no way clonded
with parliamentary technicalitics.
Those delegates who favored tho
free and unlimited coinage of
silver at IL to voted for
the amendment and it was
lost by a majority of lat. The victory
of the 'sound-moncy" element in the
congress was emphasized later in the
day when resolution declaring op.
position to the further issue OF Interest,"
bearing treasury bonds or notes under
any circumstances was lost. A resolu-
ton favoring congressional enactment
against the beef trust was adopted.
