Bryan's Good Sense or Folly.

A London dispatch of May , says
The Daily News today devotes a column
to an interview with Joseph Pulitzer,
editor of the New York World, chiefly
devoted to a comparison of the methods
of American and English journalism,
Touching upon politics, Mr.. Pulitzer is
quoted as having said:
ut seems to be assured that Mr.. Bry-
an will again have the Democratic NOM
ination for the presidency next year"
"Will he be supported by united
party:" asked the reporter.
THAT" Mr.. Pulitzer reioired," sail
depends upon his good sense or folly,
II he again puts the free silver issue to
the fore, and fights on it, many of the
party will stand alOof; but if he's con
tent to let free silver sink to the back
ground and fight the battle on the great
questions of expansion or anti-eXpansion
and anti monopoly or trusts, then he will
receive wide support. Not only will he
have the united Democratic party be-
hind him, but he will also be supported
by the vast hosts of moderate people
who have been alienated by the new de
parture from our constitutional govern
ment which the present imperialist pol
icy means

We understand the prospect for sum-

son is unusually good. 1t is gratifying
to see that more and more the exception
ally beautiful scenery and health-giving
qualities of the state are being appreciate
ed and sought by those who wish to
escape from the cities during this time
of year. The recent improvements
about Lake Dunmore evidences the fact
that our own people are also beginning
to appreciate the advantages they have
heretofore neglected. a large number
of cottages have been completed during
the winter or are now in course of cree
ton, and these no doubt will be occu-
pied or rented for the season. Anything
which tends to make the life of the sum-
mer visitor more pleasant is the best OF
advertisements and the improvements
noted are certain to attract appreciative
attention.

WEATHER-CROP REPORT.
Unusual Warmth and Rapid Progress of
Crops Mark the Week.

Crops Mark the Week.
The week ending May ! has been
characterized by unusual warmth for
the seas on, abundant sunshine, and
greatly deficient precipitation. Average
number of clear days ., partly cloudy B.,
cloudy 2. Although more cloudiness is
reported than during the previous week,
the clouds have not Obscured sunshine to
much extent, except on one day.
Some sections of New England have
been entirely without precipitation In the
past week. In other localities not more
than "trace" has fallen, and the maxi
mum amounts reported are generally less
than % of an inch. The rainfall occurred
mostly during the evening and night of
the 18th, principally in the form of
thunder storms.
The prevailing weather conditions
have advanced the season rapidly. In
northern sections, comprising Maine,
New Hampshire and Vermont, the season
is still considerably behind the average,
but general activity will result if the
present weather continues. Some snow
is yet seen on the hills and in the woods.
1t has practically disappeared from
fields. Reports as to farming operations
are variable. On 'early" grounds some
planting has been accomplished.
In the southern sections, comprising
Massachusetts, Rhode Island and Con-
necticut, the week has been ideal for
agricultural operations. The pillow is
being extensively used, and planting
potatoes. onions, and various early crops
has continued. Nearly all correspond
ents speak of the need of rain for
pastures and planted ground. In the
Connecticut River valley, bottom lands
are flooded.
Rye is very promising and forward
Oats are coming up in the south, and
sowing progresses rapidly elsewhere.
Sweet corn has been planted in favorable
localities. In Bristol Co., II, l., it is re-
ported as , inches high, having been
planted early as an experiment.
Grass starts finely in the northern sec
ton. Its condition in the south is gener-
ally good, although thin and somewhat
slow in places owing to lack of moisture.
A rather surprising fact in regard to
peaches has developed IN Rhode Island.
The buds are said to be winter killed
elsewhere, but in the state mentioned
they are showing well, and the fruit
promises to yield a full average. The
warm weather has forced buds of other
fruits, aid full bloom is expected.
Small fruits are in excellent condition.
The tent caterpillar has appeared in
Berkshire county, Mass.
Asparagus has been marketed in Rhode
Island. Garden truckers are busy; some
have early peas and beets above ground
The acreage of onions is increased, like
wise potatoes.
In the Connecticut belt tobacco is well
up. In Massachusetts beds are mostly
sown, being as rule under cloth or
glass.

BOSTON PRODUCE MARKET.


The general condition of the butter mark 90
is about the same as last week. Trade con
tinues slow, so far as the wholesale move
ment is concerned, and prices are i'm BUYERS
favor Receipts have but slightly increas Il,
but there appears to be more than enough
for the demand, ana after the finest lots are
sold to regular customers the remainder has
to be forced OF at concessions. This has
been the way the market has run for several
weeks past, and the results are unsatisftc &C.
tory to dealers and country shippers. There
Is a hopeful feeling that prices will strike
can be given, AS buyers will continue tn bear
the market just rs long as the make has no
keeping qualities, and until the butter Is
good enough to store.
Some of the receivers who had more than
they uld find customers for said the selling
rate should not be quoted at over 10 10
l6is euts including Western and Northern,
in large and assorted sized tubs, but others
said they had sold their finest lots of Yer

cents. Boxes sold at TX cents for best dual.

portion of boxes said they could not get

FRIDAY, MAY 3, 1890.

1t was only a few weeks ago that
complaint was very general of the eX-
IRENE backwardness of the spring. That
nature knows how to compensate is
evidenced by the almost magical trans
formation which has taken place in the
past two weeks. Our crop report in
dictates that the season is now almost up
to the average, and if the present pro-
gress is maintained there will be no bad
results of the lingering winter weather
of early April. a trip through the
country shows that farm work is very
well advanced for the time.

DisPENsARiEs vs.. LICENSE.

The Burlington News notes editorially
South Carolina liquor law among minis
tiers of the gospel, and quotes the case of
the Pastors Union of Toledo, o., which
at a recent meeting approved the propo-
stion of municipal dispensaries on the
lines ofsth South Carolina state dis
pensaries. The only comment the News
has to offer is as follows;
We don't see, ourselves, any great advan.
tage in this system overa well-devised license
law, and it looks far less practicable.
There are many newspapers in Yer
mont opposed to the present liquor laws
of the state. Without exception they
base their opposition on the inefiicacy
of the laws in preventing the general
sale of liquors and the harm, both moral
and physical, which results from the
Illicit traffic now so prevalent through
out this state. Not a single paper has
yet come out as the avowed champion of
the liquor cause for itself. We do not
believe there is much sympathy in Yer
mont for the liquor dealer as an individ-
ual. The News certainly does not wish
to 60 on record in that light. But where
two propositions are presented so rad
ically different as the state dispensary,
conducted without regard to personal
profit and the consequent temptation to
sell unfortunately, and the license
system as conducted in other states
Middlebury register. (Middlebury, Vt.) 1886-1937, 1899-05-05

we are tempted to believe that support
of the latter system means support of
the individual dealer.
The REGISTER in its last issue gave a
very full description of the South Caro-
lima law and its results. If the News
can point out wherein the system is in
ferior to a "well-devised license law"
(tliere is no such law now in existence),
the article will prove of much general
interest

nor is the prospect favorable for such
action. The concern is meeting with
phenomenal success. An order for 80
Baskets was received last week from a
Buffalo dealer, and every mail brings or
ders from points in all the states as far
west as Indiana. They turn out about
10000 Baskets a year, besides robes,
trimmings, ETC., which are also manu-
featured here. On the average 2,000,-
600 feet of lumber per year have been
consumed, furnished by the farmers, be.
sides large quantity brought here from
the south. Business was commenced in
a small way in 1870, when II or 10 hands
were employed. In 1877 the company
was Incorporated, and 125 hands are
now employed. There are several large
buildings-the .cloth department, three
stories high, basement and attic, built in
1891 {; another built in 1895, three stories,
basement and attic, and larger one,
built in 1898, four stories high, besides a
large saw mill, hose house, power house,
etc. Both water and steam are used for
power, the entire power aggregating
2l5 h. p. Four elevators convey the
material from room TO room in process
of manufacture. The buildings are
heated by hot air pipes and electric
lighted by $50 volt dynamo. Blowers
convey the shavings from the machine to
