The Vermont watchman. [volume] (Montpelier, Vt.) 1883-1911, 1900-08-29

There is a marked difference between
the Republican and Democratic candi
dates for the Presidency in their ability
to remain faithful to important issues
through evil report and good report.
Mckinley is recognized as the apostle
OF proiec ion. He believes in it, work
ed for it, voted for it and secured the
passage of the protective tariff meas
ure known as the Mckinley bill.
When the free trade party triumphed
and House and Senate were elected
pledged to repeal the McKluley bill, its
author never wavered. He continued
to teach protection and warned the peo-
pie that the experiment on which they
were about TO enter would prove dis
astrous. Results proved the wisdom OF
his position. The people came to think
as he thought and his record in both
victory and defeat has been consistent.
While Mckinley advocated protection,
Bryan defended free trade, but when
free trade was repudiated Bryan drop
ped it. He consulted with expeliency
and bound himself to the silver wor-
shippers, allowing free trade to shift for
itself. Then in turn silver was drop
ped, and after this year imperialism
will sleep beside free trade and free
silver and some other popular cry will
be adopted by the Nebraska Colonel
unless he is dropped.

The Democrats, as is well known, are
in control of almost all the large
cities, and as no jealousy for civil SER
vice reform concerns them when they
get in, it follows that nearly all the
Office holders in the large cities are
Democrats. So staupch an anti-expan-
sion paper as the New York Herald de-
clares that half million dollars will be
raised among the Democratic office
holders of New York and Brooklyn.
This is entirely credible, and if that
much can be done in these localities
alone, it is an indication that ten times
as much money could probably be
raised in other Democratic cities, all
taken together, especially since Mr..
Bryan has pointed out that the Bryan
lite campaign is very fortunate in hav.
idg control of the organization in the
chief cities. Perhaps this is the real
reason that he had in mind for con-
graduating himself.

CROP CONDITIONS
Excessive Rain Has Caused Damage in
 South Atlantic States

Washington, June 19.-The Weather Bu- reau weekly summary of crop conditions is as follows:
 The protracted drought over the northern portion of the wheat region continues, and rain is needed in portions of New England and Texas, and generally throughout the Rocky Mountain districts. Abundant rains have occurred in the mdd Atlantic States, while excessively heavy precipitation has interrupted farm work and caused damage to crops in the South Atlantic and East Gulf States, lower Ohio and central and lower Mississippi valleys. Corn needs cul- tivation in the East Gulf States. In the middle and South Atlantic States corn has made decided advancement, but it sneed- ing rain in portions of Texas and Louis- jana.
 Heavy rains in the central Mississippi valley have retarded the harvesting of win ter wheat.
 Very unfavorable reports respecting the spring wheat continues from the Northern portion of the spring wheat region for lack of rain. In South Dakota a general im- provement Is expected
 Oats generally continue promising. In Arkansas and eastward of the Missis- sippi river, except in portions of the Caro- linas, cotton has suffered seriously in con- sequence of excessive rains, lack of cuti- vation and lice In Texas continued dry weather, except scattered showers, was ex- ceptionally favorable for cleaning the crop, which, however, is of irregular size over the Southern portion of the State and not withstanding the favorable weather for cultivation, many fields are still foul.
 In Louisiana the weather conditions were favorable for cultivation.
 The week has been exceptionally favor able for transplanting tobacco and for that already set. Nearly all reports indicate a promising outlook, although the crop is badly in need of cultivation in Tennessee The general fruit outlook continues prom. ising.

Mss Kathryn StaIeY.

To discover an apostle of Tolstoi in summer gown and picture hat is come thing like playing at confessional, and one
 can not be surprised at any confession of social faith on the part of the young an- arehist, or rather the Christian Social ist, as Miss Kathryn Staley called her self yesterday when discussing her social
 istic theories to a group of Birmingham women, who did not, however, attempt to disguise their surprise at the very radical views expressed by this young woman.
 When she declared that she was an an- archist, it was as If she had thrown bomb into the room, for to the average wo- man the very mention of any subject touch- ing upon anarchy suggests bomb throw ing, but when Miss Staley somewhat mod flied her first statement by adding that she was Christian Socialist, the women present felt that between the two terms vast difference must necessarily exist; but after hearing Miss Staley explain her the ories, one felt that Christian Socialist
 was, after all, only an idealized anarchist. And while Miss Staley may not be as ex- treme in her socalistic views as Tolstoi, she is In full sympathy with his teachings, and especially does she believe in George D. Herron's socialistic theories that are not as extremely radical as Tolstoi's. Her ron gave up an endowed chair at Grinell to live among Chicago's poor, and it was after hearing him lecture on his ideas of universal spiritual communism that Miss Staley became interested in socialistic prob- lens. The study of these questions led her
 into a personal Investigation of the slums
 and sweat shop districts of both Chicago
 and New York, and she took up the college
 settlement work, so long recognized as the
 most effective agency in solving to some extent the problem in the over crowded section in New York's east side. Her in- vestigations naturally led her into news paper work, and the statistics to which she | confined her writings stamped her work with the accurateness and the intelligent comprehension of conditions that at once lifted 1t from sensational literature. Of her work In the slums of which I had heard, and that I asked her to speak of yesterday she rather resented the thought l expressed in reference to the sacrifice made by the man woman who works for the redemption of those people, and she de- clared that she did not know the meaning of life until the work of the slums was opened to her. And while she recalled
 many instances of redemption among wo-
 men, that take away any thought of sac-
 rifice on the part of those who lift them from their lives of degradation she dwelt upon the vicious condition encountered in the slums, especially in Chicago, which she stated were far more desperate than in New York. The college settlement work in Chicago, she said, was not prolific of good results as in New York, owing to the extreme viciousness of the sections in which
 the settlements are established, and that it seemed an impossibility to effect any
 wholesome change in the slums of Chicago. The work among factory girls and young women was recognized now the most
 important and far-reaching in it's results,
