Correspondence of the CALEDoNIAN)
The ride from Boston to Arlington
Heights on the electric cars is one Of the
tavorte ones in this section. You can
enjoy delightful ride OF over six miles
for five cents, through a historic section.
Within month branch roads connect at
Arlington with Winchester, Woburn and
Stoneham. After passing Harvard
Square, Cambridge, you notice on your
lett the old milestone, 70 miles to Bos-
ton," put up in 1884 and pointing the
only road then over the Great Bridge"
Beyond you will see Christ church, dat.
ing from 1861, which was the first Epis-
copa one where services were held here
The old sexton for small gratuity will
show YOU where the bullet was fred into
the entrance OF the church during the
Revolution and will be most pleased
to indicate where Washington and his
wife sat when they attended a special
service there in ITS, also the Vassal
tomb which was sealed up in 1865, and
point out where the little old organ
stood, whose pipes were melted up to
make bullets for the soldiers who were
quartered here, especially the Connect.
cut troops during the Revolutionary war
You can admire the large old illuminated
Bibles and hear the chime of thirteen
bells given by the Harvard alumni
aud pass on to the Washington Elm
reading the tablet, Under this tree
Washington first took command of the
American army, July Sd, 1875" This
poor old tree looks like SCARED veteran
with only few old branches lett, but
hundreds, probably some thousands O
people, visit it every year. You can SET
near it the old colonial Fay House, now

The Railways.

II any belated American citizen is
still of the opinion that the railways
are always grinding, let him look
over a condensed report of Poor's
Manuel for 1896. He ought to have
a Just pride in the American railway
system, owned by over 100000 peo-
pie, and employing nearly million
more. There were 535 ,120,576 pas
sengers carried, and 773 S68,716
tons OF freight moved on 1S0,S91
miles of steam railroad, at an aver
age return of 80 of one cent for
every ton of freight carried one mile,
and of Prov cents per every passenger
carried one mile. A steady, but less
rapid decline than many years ago,
in the rates both passenger and
freight, is reported. In 1884 the
average receipts for passenger mile
was 2 10 cents; the average freight
rate for the same year was 10 cents
per ton mile.
Competition of all sorts has raised
the percentage of expenses to earn
ings from 65 per cent in 1884, to 7O12
per cent in 1886. For this reason
the shares of stock have earned divi-
dends of only Sd per cent in 1896;
SO in 1895; 1 "a in 1894; 1 sc in
1898; 2.1S in 1887, and. 2.4S in
1884. In sparsely populated dis
tricts the dividends fall below 1 per
cent.
The country has it's railroads.
farms, mills. and ore-beds, and
therein lies its wealth, if profits are
small. Let us concede that business
interests, in some sort, are after all
mutual.

Passing through North Cambridge,
YOU admire the fine houses and grassy
lawns, and beyond Porter's station you

the committee of safety met and put up
over night. The handsome soldiers
monument beyond was erected in 1887,
when ex.Gov. Bracket delivered the
address. Farther on our right you see
the sign, "Cooper's Tavern" on one side

it was known in Revolutionary times,
and where they planned to attack Lord
Percey's wagon train, separated from

stating that there the old men OF Men
etomy captured an envoy of 18 soldiers
with supplies on their way to lexington.
The public library here was erected by
Mrs. M. {. Robbins in memory of her
husband and contains nearly 10000 vol
umes and is said to be the oldest free
library in the state. There is a very in
teiesting old cemetery on Pleasant street,
near the Congregational church, where
there is a monument erected to the men,
DRY Of the twelve of the twenty-five
Americans who were killed by the British
soldiers.
The road up Pleasant street is delight

bridge the writer, and Spy pond, but we
continue our way up to Arlington

where we walk up the hill to 1.-THE Out

olden times as a part of the Welsh
mountains, then Circle hill, and in 1872
it was called by the present name. The
view on clear day is superb command

seaward seven or eight miles and you
have Boston, Cambridge. Brookline,
Roxbury, Charlestown. Chelsea, Med
lord, Merose, Maiden and great many
surrounding towns all spread out before
you. The Blue Hills outline against
the horizon, while the lofty Monadnock
and distant Wachusett peaks are seen
in the distance. The view from the
water tower above commands even a
finer view and you feel well repaid for
the trouble. There is large santa

looking boarding houses.

National Bank Examiner.

The Vermont congressional dele
CATION met in Montpelier last week
and decided to recommend Speaker
Lord of Montpelier for national bank
examiner to succeed the present etfi'
Gent incumbent, Elisha May Of st.
Johnsbury. Now comes up the in
teresting question how Mr.. Lord can
accept the appointment and hold his
position as speaker at the same time.
II he accepts the federal office he can
not hold state Office. He ought not
to resign as speaker, for il the gov
ernor and acknowledgement should
die Speaker Lord would have to
reign as governor pro TEN. 1t is an
interesting question in the political
ethics, and il Mr.. Lord accepts the
position which President Mckinley
is likely to offer him the state would
go to the "demnition bow-wows" if
the two head rulers should be taken
away. So here's hoping for long life
to Gov. Grout and Lieut.. Gov. Fisk,
for Speaker Lord was left out in the
cold in the first distribution of pat
ronage and must be taken care of by
the delegation.

that is, materials in crude condition
for use in manufacturing. The July,
1897, Importation of this particular
class OF articles was double that OF July.
1896, while in the seven months ending
with July, 1897, the increase in free raw
material amounted to $55,00O,OO0, or
an increase Of over fifty per cent for the
entire seven months oil the calendar year
1897.
1t will thus be seen that while every in
terest was 'raided" by the importers in
the last months OF the Wilson law, the
farmer was the greatest sufferer That
he is already feeling the benefit of the
Dingley law, however, is shown by the
general advance in prices. Nearly every
production Of the farm has increased in
value, while Silver has been as steadily
falling in price. The latest farm product
to hear from is cotton seed and cotton
seed meal. which have advanced very
rapidly of late, Southern papers report
ing high prices and that every consign-
ment is eagerly seized by buyers, and
wool which sold in September Of 1896 at
seventeen cents pound is selling in Sep
TENDER OF 1897 at twenty-seven cents,
an advance of about sixty per cent; yet
silver is falling twenty per cent or more
meantime.

stupid who tried to picture to himself the
Grant or Washington monument. with
nothing before him but a sharp-edged

Concession in rliIeages.

When the Boston & Maine railroad
extended the use OF its 1000 mile
tickets to all its divisions, up to that
time the most liberal concession
known in railway history, it was
clearly the beginning OF new extern
sion of more liberal rates all over the
country.
The railroads included in the CEN
trail passenger association began
selling last month 1000 mile tickets
at $40, available on every one OF the
40 roads, embracing some 20 600
miles of line. operated by the asso-
ciated companies. Thus the people
of four five western states are
now voluntarily tffered privileges
which in time will inevitably be
granted by all, or nearly all, the
railroads in the more densely popu-
lated portions of the United States.
Massachusetts undertook, some
years ago.! tol force this measure
by legislative enactment, but was
wisely defeated by supreme court
decision. If the railroads are let
alone by rzealous, but we'll

rates will be solved on economic
principles, and are being solved every
