Prominent vermonter Dead.

b. ID. Harris, the founder of Brat
| tleboro's first semi-weekly, died in
that town last Thursday, after only a
DAYS illness. In 1850 he was APP
pointed secretary of the newly Or
ganized territory of Utah, position
recognized as requiring ability Of the
highest order. Brigham Young and
his plant legislature persisted in high
handed violations OF the law and
Harris refused to pay out United
States money to them. The result
was that he and his associates were
driven from the territory. Their &C
ton was approved by the administra
ton and Harris was rendered the pc
sition of secretary and acting govern
or of New Mexico, which he declined.
He devoted himself TO large business
interests, especially as a member of
the firm OF Harris Bros. & Co., rail-
road contractors, building in whole or
part the Wisconsin Central, Chicago,

pension Bridge, Plattsburg Il White

REVOLUTION HEADQUARTERS

General Gomez is a grim old warrior
and he has a grim sort of humor about
him of which his associates in war de-
light to talk
Senior Miguel Sanchez. a member of
the doughty old warriors staff at one
time but now a resident of Philadel-
phia, relates a story which will be APP
preciated by those who know the his
tory Of the antilles and the frequency
with which they produce revolutions:
Il was sl1imming one of the New
York Sunday newspapers While l was
in the generals headquarters in Cuba, .
said the senior to a Post reporter at his
home the other day, and it was the
first TO reach us for several months. 1
noticed an article on the newly dis
covered movements of the earth's sur
face. Now, you know the general dis
liked to have anyone do anything
without being invited himself to take
part. he liked TO be consulted-to be
asked qucstions-no matter how unim-
portant they might be. 50 in reading the
article / stopped and asked:
Now, general. how do you account
for the daily revolution of the earth,
anyhow
That's easy to answer, he replied
instantly, so long as Haiti, Porto Rico
and Cuba are parts of it

MEDIATION IN AFRICA.

The president has received large
number of petitions signed by many
citizens Of distinction, requesting him
to tender the mediation of the United
States TO settle the differences existing
between the government of Great Brit
ain and that OF the TransvaaL" So
runs an official communication to the
public from the state department.. But
the president will do nothing It would
not be consistent with his own line Of
conduct to cry out against bloodshed in
Africa when lie refuses to say the word
or assemble congress to put an end to
bloodshed in Asia. Why should the
administration protest against the con-
quest of the Transvaal? If England
should annex the South African repub-
lie by force. what right has Mckinley
to complain?
As Bourke Cochran has aptly stated
the case, the United States has as
much right TO intervene to prevent
aggression aud preserve peace as Eng
land has for the qualification of greed
ana the spoliation of territory" But
the PRESIDENT Is not IN q position TO
criticise ''forcible expansion" notwith-
standing his official declaration that
such a policy by our code Of morality
would be criminal aggression" So the
appeal Of the Beers and the American
petitioners will go unheeded. His ex-
cellency is too busy electioneering in
the west TO bother with little things
like peace and arbitration anyhow
If commercial interests were con-
suited we should take more interest in
Africa than we do in oceanica. During
the eight months ending with August
we exported TO our Asiatic possessions
only 1891, $50 worth of goods Single
cities in the United States sold more to
Canada in the same period. The Trans
wall is not convenient. It is an interior
country. There is no seaport and trade
is compelled to pass through British or
Portuguese possessions. Still our ex-
ports to the Transsaal are more than
Sls,o0o,O0O a year. England wants to
capture that trade. and our hands are
tied with Imperialism till We can't keep

CARTER AND HIS CHANCES.

Embezzler Carter denies the right of
the military authorities to hold him,
now that he has been dismissed from
the army. If his point is well taken the
prisoner may be set free by the presi-
dent or he may be tried for embez-
Element, grand larceny or something of
the kind in the civil courts.
If the chief executive determines that
Carter passed from the jurisdiction of
martial authorities and beyond the
reach of penalties for the enforcement
of martial law. it will be of interest to
see him reconcile this position with his
attitude in the Eagan case, where dis
missal was the sentence but the pris-
oner has been retained on the army pay
rolls without a penny worth of dis
count on his salary. Is Eagan still
subject to the jurisdiction of the mar
tial pay roll?
In the event of a civil investigation of
Carriers crime and shortage it may be
discovered who his accomplices are. if
he has any. and what has been done
with the money. 1t is too large a sum
to vanish without leaving some sort of
a, grease spot. 1t takes a clever thief to
steal 81. SOC. COO of government money, or
any other money. To dispose of the
plumber without leaving a trace behind
requires genius of a peculiar order.
There have been several suspicious
circumstances connected with this case.
Carter has posed as a scapegoat, vet no
mention is made of the real culprits;
he has professed innocence, yet the
money disappeared from his custody at
Savannah and no satisfactory expla-
nation has ever been made; he was not
brought to trial until three years after
the first accusation was made against
him; he was eventually courtmartialed,
but paid no more attention to the YER
dict of guilty than he might to an idle
rumor; he walked gaily out of the
court room, continued to draw his sal
airy, to associate with honest officers
and to compel the obeisance of honest
men.
Carter continued in this way for a
year and a half. when the sentence was
affirmed owing to a popular demand
for the reasons why the judgment of
the court was ignored; and now Carter
is trying to get out on a technicality.
He may succeed. He has done re-
markably well so far, and he is evident
ly surrounded with powerful influences.
There is some rascality behind his Of
Tense which men high in authority are
trying to conceal. But what is to be
done with the Eagan case in disposing
of this question Of jurisdiction?

AFRAID OF FOOL FRIENDS.

The Washington Post is one of the
most valiant champions Of the present
administration in the journalistic
arena. If the party in power has a policy
that the Pest hasn't endorsed it is be-
cause the Post hasn't got around to ii
yet
But it has made a most important
discovery. It says that the president
and his administration are suffering as
much from the over-zealousness of fool
friends IS from anything else. It says:
Sensible people. whatever may be
their private opinions as to the ques-
ton at issue, are becoming both weary
and indignant over the vulgar and
brutal denunciation heaped by orators
and organs upon every one who ex-
presses a doubt as TO the wisdom of the
administration Philippine policy"
The Post begs to remind it's colabor-
ers in the administration vineyard that
this is still a free republic where free
discussion is essential to popular con-
sent, in spite of the efforts of the afore-
said fool friends" to give it the an
pearance Of a monarchy. Men have
as much right to differ from Mckinley.
or Miles. or Root. as others have TO
agree with these dignitaries, SAYS our
Washington contemporary, and it is
vicious and un-American to denounce
citizens of the republic "as traitors and
seditious agitators merely because they
choose TO exercise the inalienable privi-
1ege OF independent thought and speech.
The spectacle is disgracefuI and it will
reset upon the cause in the behalf Of
which ii has been presented. This is a
free country yet we hope, ana honest
citizens still retain the right 10 their
onspions and their conscientious utter
ances"
SOLICITORS for the welfare of the ad-
1ninistration and in the interest of the
Republican party the Post says that
the sooner Il calls off its newspaper
and other champions engaged in this
abominable business, the better for its
standing with the country at large. 1t
is impossible to persuade any intell-
gent human being that the case is one
OF patriotism vs.. treason. We are en-
gagged in no war with a foreign power.

HANNAs HOME GUARDS.

It is refreshing to see a political boss
dominate SO completely party conven-
ton ana cause it TO repudiate a city ad-
ministration for which he was largely
responsible. as the partisan die
tator handled the Republican city con-
vention yesterday.
TWO years ago the Tribune was the
organ IF n-partis5nism, and when
the election was held it claimed a vic
tory. 1t pledged. and its owner pledged,
and its editor pledged, and its chief
push pledged themselves in writing
that. in the event of the election of the
mayor they nominated and supported.
only capable and deserving men should
be appointed to municipal positions.
Rut now the Republican convention,
managed by the same boss, the nom
partisan schemer of 80, dominates a
ticket of his own selection and on a
platform framed by his own employee
assails the administration and the Off
Gals he helped elect and install.
The ticket is probably composed of
the best material in the Hanna work
shop. The candidate for mayor is a gen
ial fellow, a good horsernan, but without
experience in. public affairs or any par
tfcuIar prediction for public life. The
rest Of the ticket is completely over
shadowed. however, by the candidate
Tor mayor and viii cut but little figure
ia the campaign.
The candidate for police justice. one
Twomey. is probably the strongest
name On the list, since he is not known,
and was evidently a total stranger to
the man set apart to nominate him.
Messrs. Reiser and White have never
demonstrated their qualifications for
the work they aspire TO do. Mr.. Morse
is "a very good man, and Mr.. Naylor
was a volunteer in the recent war
which viii probably be urged in his
favor.
The platform is one of the most bonn
bastic and hifalutin the Hannaites ever
constructed. 1t is a mass of contra
dictory clap-trap clothed in verbose
magniloquence, designed no doubt, for
he purpose Of aweing the opposition
and mystifying the people.
It assumes that the Republican party
has a corner on all the political virtue,
the patriotism, the integrity, the Wis
dom the glory that there is in this
country, and arraigns the Democratic
party for all errors Of non-partisanism
which the chief cooks and bottle wash
ers of The local Republican organiza-
ton foisted upon the community two
years ago. 1t claims credit, with be-
coming modesty, for the good crops and
foreign famines which have helped the
farmer out. and for the output of the
mines of the state. 1t is a hysterical
document, full Of sound and fury, sig
nifying nothing, and was evidently
written by he same hand that penned
the city engineers screed TO the coun-

Republican. IF he were the Repub-
