CUSTOMS CHANGES.

The change of an administration
from one political belief to another
very naturally brings certain changes
in the customs service, by which good
men go out and other good men go
in and take their places. Certain
changes are now about to go into
operation and they will deprive our
village of number of our best citi-
zens. Col. Mansur is the Collector of
the new District of Memphremagog
with headquarters at Newport, in
stead of Island Pond where it natural
E belongs both as regards the amount
of business done and its geographical
location. Mr.. Mansur has had excel
lent training for this important posi-
ton having served four years in the
service as deputy collector in charge
of the port of Island Pond; he is
withal keen business man, enjoys
great credit for ability and integrity,
and has the respect and confidence of
everybody in his town and county
He has appointed Louis Follett spec
ial deputy collector, Charles A. Ban
croft, auditor, Helen E. Clarke, stem
ographer, and L. Burton Jones, jani-
tor. all from Island Pond A great
loss to our village in many ways. All
are clever, capable, thorough and ac

curate in their work, and Collector
Mansur has made wise selection.
No one doubts their peculiar fitness
for these positions. The other Off
cials at Newport are Benjamin F..
Paine, cashier, John T. Howell dep
uty collector and Inspector. In our
own town John w. Thurston, deputy
collector in charge of the port, va
Gates his Office and gives place to
Porter H. Dale. The latter brings to
the performance of the duties Of the
Office good business capacity and
legal discernment, and he will be a
faithful and efficient officer. His ap-
pointment is a recognition Of a grow
ing, Industrious and capable young
man and gives general satisfaction.
w. Ell. Norton, formerly in the serv-
ice, consequently possessing exper-
ience, returns to duty here and will be
able to render good assistance. We
are glad to have Mr.. Norton and fam
lily once more located at Island Pond.
A. Ell. Hall will have reappointment
soon and he too will be helpful,
bringing to the work of the port abil-
ity and years of experience. M. T.
Sadleir will also receive an appoint
ment, he having passed the required
examination. His long service in the
railroad Office will be of material help
to him in his new duties.-Esse1 Co.

PROSECUTING MOB LEADERS.

The Burlington Free Press of last
Thursday contains the following:
"What promises to be one of the
most sensational cases that has ever
been heard in Bennington county was
started Wednesday, when Deputy
Sheriffs Nash and Godfrey went to
Bondville and arrested Charles Stiles
and Samuel Castle as ring leaders in
the tar and feathering case that oc-
Cured in that hamlet the evening of
September 10th last, and served sub
poenas on a dozen other leading peo-
assault, the first of the kind that ever
occurred in the county, was Willie
Williams, 26 years of .ge, man who
has served a term in the House of
Correction and States prison. His
offense was visiting house of bad
repute, the inmates of which were
assisted by the town, after being noti-
fed to keep away. He was seized
while in the house by mob said to
number some twenty or more, strip
ped of all his clothes except a shirt
and the tar poured over him. He
was then rolled in bed of sand, kick
ed and pounded amid cries of "Hang
him!'' "Lynch himr' and then taken
to the front of the Morgan house and
compelled to make obeisance to a
crowd that was seated on the veran-
da and afterwards told that if he
returned to that place he would be
killed.
The list OF assailants as furnished
by him includes one town officer, the
hotel keeper, the school teacher, a
crippled veteran and several we'll to
do farmers. The action of the States
attorney, who brought the case, is in
reputable residents of the town.
There is a divided opinion among the
people of the place and parties say
that the Intimidation against those
who were in favor of having the per-
petrators punished has been SO great
that they were afraid to speak out.
Others have expressed desire to fur
nish money to prosecute the offend
ers.'
This action of the citizens of Ben
nington county was a disgrace to the
State and should not go unpunished.
The men should be made an example
of, for if the matter is allowed to drop
and such things continue, Vermont,
which has hitherto been considered
as state where lawlessness was not
allowed, will be placed in the ranks
with some of the Western states.

TWENTY CENT BUTTER.

While the Westerners have been
calling for dollar wheat and have seen
the product advance to that price in
all the large wheat centers, even as
far west as st. Louis and Minneapolis,
the producers of butter and cheese
have not made push for 20 cent but
ter and 10 cent cheese. 1t is probably
true, that at the present time with all
the facilities and labor saving machin-
cry of wheat producing regions, that
a bushel of wheat can be raised as
cheap as two pounds of butter in Yer
mont. In fact 1t is stated that wheat
can be grown for 25 cents bushel.
Farmers, no matter how wisely they
manage and economically they carry
on the dairy business, cannot produce
butter profitably at price much be-
low;20 cents pound. It may be fair
ly profitable under the low prices of
grain for the last two years to make
butter at Is or Is cents pound, but it
must beIdone under very favorable
circumstances. The profit on the
grain fed COW at the late low
rates Of western feed, must be count
ed as much on the manure pile as in
the butter tub, for it is doubtful if the
increase in butter made by extra grain
feed equals by quite per cent the
cost of the feed. IF not, the farmer is
paid only indirectly in the extra fer
g L.
farmers state that grain feeding is
profitable only on the manure pile,
and it is easily shown that in those
sections where farmers buy Western
feed in largest quantities that there is
a thrift that can only appear where
farming is profitable. In certain Sec
tions where farmers are great grain
feeders, the productive capacity of
their farms has been very largely in
creased in the last few years. Some
have doubled the amount of hay and
increased other crops; not a few have
doubled the number of cows kept on
the farms. This increase in hay,
grain and stock, no matter how low
butter is selling, shows profitable
business. If the dairying products
shall increase until dairying is over
done the farmers will have better
lands and oftentimes have better
buildings for his years of labor in
butter and cheese, and the
sent West for his surplus, ex-
ira, feed.
The Mckinley and Dingley tariffs
were formed to help the farmer as
well as the manufacturer, and the
duty on foreign butter and cheese is
set so high that foreign countries
cannot sell these products in this
country. Hence we control our own
markets and may be able even at ad
rates to ship some butter and
cheese abroad. The market is i'm
proving and nothing but large over
production will prevent the price of
butter rising to 20 cents, the year
through. If dairymen push the pro-
duction of butter to much greater
volume they are liable to over do the
matter, and spoil prices by being their
own competitors. 1t is hoped that the
times are frightening along all lines
SO that consumption will be heavily
while the farmer can find
profit in something besides the dairy |
cow. There ought to be cry for 20
cent butter and an effort made on all |
sides to push it up to at least that fig
lre.
