PRESS OPINIONS.
Where Small Towns RuIe.

The small towns in most of the New
England states hold the legislative
balance of power in their own hands
and they evidently intend to hold on.
Connecticut has just been through an
agitation for constitutional revision
and with disastrous results 10 the
agitators. The proposed amendment
to the constitution provided that each
town OF 2j00 inhabitants should have
one representative in the house, Of
over 2500 two representatives and two
members for every additional 10000
or more. The amendment was
favored by the governor, by all the
prominent Republican politicians and
by every Republican newspaper in the
state, yet the amendment was defeated
145 to 81. As in Vermont the smaller
towns are now each represented in the
legislature, and they do not intend to
be deprived of that representation.
An amendment of this nature would
fare equally bad in Vermont or New
Hampshire Bellows Falls Times.

JUDGE LYNcH'S ADVOCATE.

Having boxed the compass of
Nermonts ills, from rape to murder;
from murder to paregorie; from
paregoric to tuberculosis; the Essex
Record has arrived at its starting point
and begun over again. Its text last
week was drawn from the reports OF
two atrocioGs cases of child-assault
that have lately occurred in the state.
As a master of invective, Bro. Hays
has no equal, and he turned on all his
batteries in this ase-thirteen-inch
rifles, Tapid-firers and magazine
repeaters. lie is most exercised
because Yermonters do not promptly
string up the offenders, instead Of
letting the law take its course with
them He openly advocates lynching,
as witness the following excerpt:
should he be permitted to live2 l
ask every editor OF Vermont to
honestly answer this question. Answer
it from the side of justice and
humanity. Never mind your statutes,
your grizzled courts or your Prince
Albert lawyers. Answer it as men
and be men In answering il,
And having done this, follow with 4
tenacity born Of honest purpose every
case Of the kind that takes place ia the
state and it won't be long before the
limp and ugly form Of the rape tiend
will dangle from the stately elm or
maple, while the wind sways the
polluted carcass to and fro and sings,
Never again, never again.
Bro. Hays has been in this state four
years, which ought to be long enough
to convince him that such seditious
language as he here employs will not
only fail to accomplish its purpose, but
viii react upon him who employs it.

A correspondent in the Free Press,
in pleading for consideration of the
farmers interests before destroying
his herds in the effort to stamp out
tuberculosis, advances one suggestion
that seems worthy OF attention. He
asks that the milk and flesh OF animals
suspected be subjected to bacteriologi-
cal examination to determine whether
these products contain germs danger
Gus to the human system. If not
found the animal need not be killed,
at serious loss to its owner. The
correspondent very properly urges
that this course is taken with water
supplies and other foods before they
are condemned, and it is unjust to the
stock owners to single them out for
the victims Of theory not yet reduced
to science-that tuberculosis in a COW,
whatever the stage, is OF necessity a
serious menace to the public health.

The fair name of Vermont has never
yet been stained by a case of lynching,
and we trust never will be. We hope
we have as high a regard for female
honor aud virtue and as deep a
contempt for man-beasts as Others
profess, but there is one thing for
which we have even higher respect,
and that is the law under which we
live. 1t may be perfectly plain to the
Record that men accused OF this
crime-whether guilty or innocent
should be yanked into eternity at the
hands of a mob, but it is not to us.
The state names a penalty to be
visited upon him who is found guilty.
If it is not severe enough, it can be
increased by the same power that first
fixed it, Whatever it is, it represents
the judgment OF the state touching the
crime. From it there can be no
appeal to the unreasoning judgment of
an intlamed mob. What right have |,
an individual, to decide that the law
prescribed by the state is insufficient,
and, having named penalty myself,
to proceed to execute il? BY thus
setting at naught the state, am ] not
guilty of treason and anarchy of the
worst form? OF what use is any law,
il individuals are to spit upon it and
substitute their own conceptions, as
hasty impulse may dictate?
And how much better, Bro. Hays,
do you think Vermont would be if
every editor followed your advice not
to mind the statutes, but to incite his
readers to the end that our stately
naples and elms shall bear as fruit the
ugly form Of the rape-fiend, placed
here by the dispassionate, unerring,
sovereign act Of a mob, in defiance Of
he state2 And, by the way, brother,
would it not be well for you to "mihd
The statutes" to the extent Of noting
he penalty provided by secs. 1854 and
100 for advising or countenancing
he commission of Illegal acts.

CHURCH SEPARATION.

There is a renewal of the periodic
discussion about a union OF churches,
1t might be helpful, but all the
experience of the past teaches that
there Will be more churches and more
denominations, instead OF less, as time
goes M Randolph Herald and News.
Perhaps wen reach a point where
every family will have an independent
church OF its own If the experience Of
the past counts Wilmington Times.
The worst pessimist is the journal

Christian church of A. ID. 2000 will

and Mentalists, the first emphasizing

prise.
Is there anything in the signs OF the
present to indicate a departure from
the rule Of the past II not, we are
bound to see more new and different
sects and isms as the years roll on,
until we approximate the conditions
indicated in the Times comment
above. From single root, the
Christian church has separated into
hundreds of denominations, some OF
them varying so much from the Others
as to make their common parentage
seem impossible Every year sees
new ones added to the list. A few
persons find that they cannot agree
with all the tenets of the belief in
which they have grown up, and 50,
preserving the main features, they
introduce new ones more to their
liking, build a church edifice and
conduct services by themselves. The
old church continues, and the two
occupy the field where one sutficed
before.
This relates only TO Professionalism,
the very essence of which is individual
Interpretation OF Gods word. As no
two minds exactly agree, it is by no
means strange that in so important a
matter as religious faith it has been
found impossible to limit the number
Of Protestant denominations. Having
once separated, it is impossible to
reunite, The longer the separation,
the wider the gulf, IS new generations
come upon the stage, having only their
particular church training and no
knowledge Of or utilization with any
other. Churches sometimes die for
lack Of support, but their membership
is seldom transferred to other
denominations.
1t is true there is a certain fellow
ship between orthodox churches at
present and a cooperation that did not
formerly exist, but this does not lower
the doctrinal barriers that stand
between them, and we see no indi-
cations Of a lessening Of the number OF
churches as a result Outside of
orthodoxy are a great number of sects
hopelessly cut oil, and the number is
constantly increasing.
So far as the oldest and largest
branch of organized Christianity

will never unite with any denomi-
