The absurdity of the st. Johnsbury
ruction over the Howe sentence for rum
selling has another illustration in the
fact that Gov. Woodbury. feels it nee
essarv to defend his action in refusing
pardon by publishing five letters
he received from people protesting
against it. These letters do not dis
pute that the st. Johnsbury business
men almost unanimously signed the pc
tition for pardon, which is the fact that
is illuminating regarding the principle
involved, but they argue that Howe, not
withstanding all the good things that
can be said in his favor persistently
violated the law and "defied local
public sentiment" for % years, and at
the end only plead guilty to several
offenses when he knew that it was the
least number that would be proved
against him. There is no disputing
the fact, as the Reformer said in the
beginning, that the sentence is right
if the law is right, and the Governor
does we'll not to let the issue be escap-
ed even, if there is some inconsistency
with his action in the Mccarthy case.
But that he should feel it necessary to
publish these letters in defense of his
action in refusing pardon to self
confessed vioator of the law, cannot
help being ridiculous.

Still the proof accumulates that the
Yankee instead of needing to cry baby
at home. can command the foreign
markets. just as Gladstone predicted
years ago when once we should aban-
don the folly of protection. England
bought her first cargo of iron direct
from Ohio several months ago. and
this weeks dispatches report the ship
ment of second cargo In 1894 our
iron exports reached $50, 600, 600 and
already in 1895 have exceeded that fig
ure by 81, 200. 900. while in 1882, the
largest previous year, they amounted to
only $40, 900, 600. These exports consist
largely of manufactures of iron and
steel. the most desirable goods to sell
abroad, as they represent the product
of the highest class of skilled labor.
Our heaviest exports of copper pre-
vious to 1894 were 10. 453, GOO pounds.
During the fiscal year 1895 we expected
LAG, 600, 900 pounds, and the demand is
still growing with the growth of in
dustries depending on the great devel-
opment of electricity. This is what
has happened under slightly lowered
tariff in the three industries. iron,
steel and copper, that have been most
clamorous for tariff to save them
from ruiz by foreign competition.

The bond syndicate through j..

change for legal tenders to make up
J for the loss due to the gold ship
ments of the past few weeks. This
in addition to the gold the syndicate
was to supply in payment for bonds,
and is part of its contract to pro-
tect the reserve until October. 1t
is not exactly matter of pride that
this great government should thus
be dependent on a syndicate, but II is
the result of the silver business and
of the Sherman act giving us some
$500, 600. 600 of different kinds of cur
rency all payable in gold and depend
ent on a 500, 600. 600 reserve, a proper
ton that would not be regarded as "A
safe banking basis anywhere on the
civilized earth. 1t may safely be said
that without the syndicate's support
things would be in a panicky condition
at once, and it is not pleasant sub
iect of speculation as to what will
happen after the syndicate contract
expires. The flow of gold will i'll all
likelihood be towards our shores by
that time, and the calculation is that
it will ease the situation as it I'M
doubtedly will, for the time being. But
the New York banks are still boarding
gold. refusing to cash importers checks
in that metal and driving them to the
subtreasury for what they need. The
result is that what gold comes in or is
mined is absorbed by the banks and
held there, while that which goes out
is pulled from the government reserves.
If the banks adhere to this policy
until another gold season
comes, there will almost inevitably be
trouble But it does seem as if they
ought to get over their distrust of the |
unquestionably top-heavy monetary
situation before that time. They GER
tainly will if the silver question is set
tied by international action by that |
time. as we hope it will be and as the
health of the whole world |
requires. But even if not, it is non
sense to fear that this great rich
country is not of good credit. True
it is like the business man who has
too much paper out for his ready cash.
but its resources are beyond its obi
cations thousand times over. and it
is sure to deal honestly 10y its credi-
tors as it always has done. Really
there is not any such fear of il among
intelligent men. The gold boarding
is chiefly a matter of speculation. or of
to have stuff on hand that
will bring 81 for 81. if we drop to
silver basis. But there ought not to

sneeches. if WAS to some of Chamber
lain's schemes of reform, and the PROB
abilities are that when the time comes
for something to be done to indicate
their policy, more or less OF these
schemes will be offered to the Com
mons, and Chamberlain himself, in
spite of his radicalism, will retain his
seat in the cabinet, and his proml-
nepce in the counsels of the united
parties. Sir William Harcourt, defeated
in his old district, stood successfully in
another and will continue to lead the
Liberals in the Commons, but John
Morley, the most consistent follower
of Mr.. Gladstone in his scheme for
Irish Home Rule, was slaughtered on
the very ground where the famous Lib
eral program was formulated-Newcas-
tlc-on Tyne. Henry M. Stanley, the
African explorer. and "a former Ameri-
can citizen, was elected as Tory but
Rider Haggard, the novelist, was de-
feated. 1t is evident now that great
mistake was made in not following
Gladstone's advice and appealing to
the country when the Home Rule bill
was thrown out by the House OF Lords.
The Home Rule issue, instead OF be
ing the weakest part OF the Liberal
programme, turns out to have been
their safest basis of appeal. 1t does
not appear that they lost single seat
by reason of their willingness to give
Ireland government, but it does:ap
pear that every other issue with which
the contest was complicated ana
weaken the Liberals. The one CRAFTY
ing feature in the result is the great
added strength that has been given to
the cause of international bimetallsm.
This issue played much larger part
in the campaign than was supposed
during it's progress. In many districts
the Tory candidates who have been
elected were directly pledged to favor
bimetallism, and the sec
rotary of the Bimetallic League de
clares that most of the Tory members
elect are so pledged. The first session
of the new parliament will assemble
about the middle of this month, but 1t
is not expected to formulate any party
but to adjourn after providing
the necessary appropriations.
