Editor Amos l. Root, whose devotion
TO the bicycle takes him often health

his excursions within comparatively
recent period including Florida and Ar
iona, expresses the opinion that Bel
mont county, Ohio, is the most thrifty
and finest looking agricultural region he
has found in all his travels, and this,
Notwithstanding, or perhaps, because
OF the fact that there the landscape
seems to be set up edgewise-'every-
thing slopes, garden patches and whole
farms. No matter how steep the hill
sides or how high the submits, the for
ests have been mostly displaced by cul-
tlvated fields, the beguiling greenery OF
crops draplng alike the crests and the
valleys that intervene. The warm, rich
erayeuy loan and the sunny exposures
afford the situations In which fruits
thrive, notably Strawberries; growth OF
the latter has come to be general ana
extensive, from moderate sized plots to
forty acres under single control; and
the shipments from GAINESVILLE station
are by CARROTS and tralnloads.

A quartette of pickpockets were
landed in Jail at Burlington Tuesday
of last week. They went to Burling-
ton from White River Junction but
their starting point is unknown. They
began their light-fngeYed work on
the train and a drummer named
Headle was chosen as an easy dupe.
He detected them and reported the
matter to Conductor A. NJ. Wells.
The drummer got of at Montpelier
Junction and when the train arrived
at Waterbury the conductor tele-
graphed to Chief Dumas, saying that
four crooks would get off at Burling-
ton. The chief was at the depot, but
the ''gents" were slippery and jumped
off in the yards. They went to the
American House and registered but
one of them put down their town and
the officers caught them. They were

to burlington to work their game on

CENTRAL LABOR UNION
Discussion Of Bill Before Congress Relative
to Convict Labor Products.
Question Referred to Legislative Com
mittee-SuppOrt Pledged to Y. NJ.
c. A. Building Project.

The weekly meeting last evening Of the
Central Labor Union was well attended.
President Milford Spohn presided and Mr..
]. ]. Crowley was secretary.
A communication to President Spohn
from Representative James L. Slayden of
Texas, relative to a bill introduced by Mr.
Slayden In the House during April last, was
read.
The bill provides that all goods, wares
and merchandise, of whatever Sort which
are made by the labor of convicts in whole
or in part, when transported into any state
or territory, and which shall remain there
in for use, consumption or sale, or for
storage therein, shall, upon arrival in such
state or territory, be subject to the opera
ton and effect of the laws of such state or
territory, enacted in the exercise of its po-
lice or taxing powers, to the same extent
and in like manner as though such articles
had been produced in such state or terri
tory, and shall not be exempt therefrom by
reason of being introduced therein in orig
inal packages or otherwise
In his letter Mr.. Slayden says: II had
hoped the bill might pass without serious
opposition My bill, should it become law,
would. 1 venture to believe, prove the
deathblow to convict competition with hon.
est labor.
Commerce between the states can only
Without some such bill mine, convicts
employed under the lease other system
In a given state can be kept in a disastrous;
competition with the honest labor of any
other state. Should my bill become law it
will be a simple and easy matter to induce
most of the states to enact the supple
mental legislation required to absolutely
abolish convict competition. OF course,
convictS are not going to be maintained in
idleness. Humanity and the policies of all
states throughout the world forbid it. But
ultimately, if we can kill their employment
otherwise. they will be forced upon the
public roads. species of work which can
hardly be considered competition, because
experience teaches us that the people will
not tax themselves directly to make p good
system of roads, however much they may
be needed.

of working the criminal classes"

Gestfon Of Nodded Trolley,

A called meeting Of the Congress
Heights Citizens Association was held last
evening for the purpose Of considering the
different plans offered for getting the cleo
trio cars across the navy yard bridge in a
more satisfactory manner than by horses.
1t was suggested that the Inconvenience
of not having the cars lighted ON the bridge
by electricity at night which is impossible
without a maintenance Of the connection
between the underground and overhead
systems, is such that the patrons of the
line ought not to be subjected to, it and
the consensus of opinion was that the sug-
gestion in 1.-The editorial in The Star for the
placing of a modified trolley on the top of
the bridge a the center is entirely feasible
and unobjectionable. 1t was regarded as the
proper solution Of this difficulty. This, II
was stated, is the last link necessary to
give the people on the south side of the
river rapid transit, and the plan was voted
to be the most feasible vet suggested.
