ERASTUS HUNTLEV DEAD.

Eras tus Huntley, one OF Northfelds
most respected citizens, died at his home
at about five O'Clock Tuesday. 1t was
twelve weeks last Sunday since he was
taken ill with what was pronounced ty-
phoid pneumonia, AT times it seemed he
was gaining in strength but he was 80 ex-
hausted by the suffering he endured that he
was unable to assmilate the nourishment
given him, and so gradually grew weaker.
Mr.. Huntley was born at Chelsea, and
had he lived would have been sixty-six
years old this coming May. When young
man he went to Lowell, Mass, where he
entered a machine shop and there learned
the trade of decorator and painter. Some
thirty odd years ago he came to this place
and opened store in what was then the
old Paine block. There he remained until
he built the block in which his store is now
located in the year 1883. Since he came to
Northfeld he had held many offices of trust
and responsibility among which were those
Of trustee Of the village, trustee Of Elm
wood cemetery and trustee o the graded
and High school, each of which positions
he had held for many years. In Odd Eel
lowship he had always taken an active and
prominent part, having held all the offices
Of the lodge and had served as their dele
gate and representative at grand lodge on
several occasions. He had also held the
highest Office in the power Of the Good Tenn
plars' lodge to bestow, and had always
been active in the temperance work of the
community. II all the offices which he
had held, as well as in his private life, he
had made for himself an enviable repuUa-
ton for integrity, honesty and fair dealing,
such reputation as any man might well
wish to have for his own.
Mr., Huntey leaves a wife, Ellen M, two
daughters, Miss Alma and Mrs. Flora
Morse, son, DR.. W. G. Huntley, three
brothers, Newcomb, Of Northfeld, John, of
Bro1kfield, and George, of Pennsylvania,
also two SISTERS Mrs. M. Conant and Mrs.
III. Harrington, both of Barre.
In the death of Mr.. Huntley the com
munity has uttered a loss which will be
in society will be hard to fill The family
and immediate friends have the sympathy
of the entire community in their sorrow.

A gentleman from Waterbury in the city
Saturday represents that there is much
interest in that village in the matter OF the
early morning local to Burlington and that
the people there will cooperate heartily in
the efforts to secure its restoration. 1t is sug-
gested that petitions be circulated in Barre,
other towns on the line, for signatures of
the business men and other citizens inter-
ested, and that committee of one or more
from each place carry these peti tions to St..
Albans, present the matter to the railway
officials and labor to secnre their favorale
action. 1t would seem to be matter for
the city council to lead in. The communities
in question would unquestionably prefer
the six o'clock local to the ten o'clock, II
they could have but one. Montpelier should
beslir herself in the matter.

1t is interesting to observe, how even in g
town of this size, the modern tendency to q
sort of communism is at work. People
spend more time in the library and club
rooms; various organizations meet in
church vestries, school-houses and the IL
brary, thus expressing, though perhaps un.
consciously, their belief in the modern idea
of the commonwealth-the claims to use
and enjoy certain rights and privileges not
distinctly personal.

A NEW BOOK.

The Tribune has received copy of
"Leaves from Arbor Lodge" by Mary
French Morton. This is a handsome
book of some sixty pages, in delicate
pale green binding, issued by the
Blakely Printing Company of Chi
cago, and illustrated with dozen pho
tographic views of spots about the
historic old homestead. 1t contains
number Of the short poems of it's
author. Miss Morton has contributed
quite freely to The Conservative, and
these brief poems of hers have attract
ed more attention, and been copied
more widely, than her fellow citizens
perhaps are aware. There is always
a peculiar satisfaction in reading
new poem by Miss Morton. They are
mechanically perfect, for one thing;
and there is always all idea at the
bottom of them. Also the things that
they deal with are things that exist.
They do not go into distractions. They
are the fruits of mature understand
ing, that sees the world through un-
glamored eyes and finds all the humor
and tradegy of life in the everyday
facts that lie around it. We are glad
to have this much of them in perman-
ent form. Nebraska City Daily

people whom our policy keeps poor to
buy of us they must earn the where
withal
Towards other peoples, those of
Europe, when we meet on equal foot
ing, our attitude should be that COM
mended by Jefferson: Peace, COM
merce and honest friendship with
ALL. We do not need their kindly
sentiment, grant, for our national
defense yet there is no precaution we
may despise as superfuous as a means
of preventing war.
"The promotion of commerce is a
far nobler and worthier aim for an
enlightened government than any that
can be realized by victorious warfare.
Commerce, though it may have it's
source in self interest, is powerful
stimulus to broad human sympathy.
1t opens up the mental horizon, makes
over the citizens of one limited coun-
try into citizens of the world, studies
the common interests of mankind in
providing the most advantageous di-
vision of labor, stimulates invention
and promotes progress It feeds the
hungry and clothes the naked it re-
lieves the scarcity Of one region by
the plenty Of another, instead of
gorging the strong with the spoils of
the weak and it adds value to ar
ticles it takes and those it brings,
instead of destroying or corrupting
whatever it touches. Carrying,
along the gospel Of service, it is the
messenger Of practical Christianity.
"Our late president truly said that
Reciprocity is in harmony with the
spirit of the times, retaliation is not;
adding that the ships of commerce
are messengers Of peace and amity
wherever they go;' and he closed his
farewell address with the noble ex-
hortation: Let us ever remember
that our interests are in concord, not
conflict, that our real eminence rests
in the victories of peace, not those of
war. -

those lines Of manufacture in which
competition is most feared by our
great producers, while opening the
doors to the agricultural and manu-
featured products we export. 1t may
safely be said Of this treaty, that those
who would be better off for it's ratifi-
cation-whether traders, producers or
manual laborers-are to those who
would be worse off as many hundreds
to one. In view of the high probabil-
ity, which we are fully entitled to
accept as certainty, that this is our
last chance for so favorable a treaty
with the French republic, and that
any measure hereafter drawn up must
contain greater concessions for it and
less for us, the delay in ratification
appears nothing less than fatuous l
have spoken as though only manufac-
turers were concerned in exporting,
chiefly because it is among them that
opposition is feared. But agriculture
now furnishes 5000, 900, 900 worth of
our exports; more than three fourths
of the whole half a century ago, and
still not far from thirds. This
huge and vitality important export
trade is attacked by hostile duties
from many different directions 1--WE
even hear Of a proposition in Holland
to put heavy tariff OH our flour) and
the interests of our farmers it will
not do to overlook. Nor have we by
any means exhausted the field in con-
sidering only the producers involved.
Our people are all interested, as con
sumers, in securing and enjoying the
widest possible source of supply
through extended commerce.
'There is double satisfaction in
advancing a movement, when, as SO
truly in this instance, our pecuniary
interests lead US in perfect accord
with the drawings of Christian
brotherhood. While extending our
commerce, we can discharge nation
al ObllgatlOn IN one d1reCtlOn, ana
win friends for ourselves in another.
| Our plain duty is no less plain in
dealing with Cuba than with Porto
Rico. Our arms have conquered for
both islands alike a new place in the
world; and, though we may continue
to treat one Of them as dependency
while recognizing the other as free
nationality over whose foreign rela-
tions we retain control, our response
bilities by no means differ so widely
in the two cases as do the words we
use. Reciprocity may be merely
policy toward the other nations Of the
earth; it is the payment of sacred
debt to Cuba. And none the less so

sible to see that they have made any |
point which need seriously discourage
us. The constitutional provision
some times quoted, that revenue bills
shall originate in the house of repre-
sentatives, suggesting the intention
that all notifications Of them shall SO
originate, seems to be quite sufficient
ly met by another constitutional pro-
vision that treaties, duly ratified,
shall have the full force Of law. The
principle that revenue changes should
not be introduced by the executive
branch of government, cannot apply
to changes expressly following pro-
visions of an act of congress. The
most serious objections came natur-
ally from interests that fear cutting
down of the protective bounty they
enjoy, either directly by action of
the treaties, or remotely by what any
relaxation of the Dingley law may at
some time lead to- President McKin-
ley, as already shown, was convinced
that not single industry would be
appreciably injured by the French
treaty now pending, but even suppos-
ing that some minor one-knit goods,
say, or spectacles, or bogus jewelry,
employing comparatively few work
men, might be disturbed a little, we
surely cannot be expected to sacrifice
to it the interests of the whole coun-
try, and the vast number Of it's labor
ers dependent on exports for employ
ment This would be like praying
Providence to send us no rain, how
ever our fields might be suffering for
lack of it, because some worthy citi-
zen might perchance be out without
an umbrella. We would have no one
suffer; but if some suffering must be,
better it should be slight suffering
by the very few, than general de-
privation to the great majority.
"When we come to compare, with
any view to deciding impartially how
the facts stand, the numbers interest
ed adversely to such reciprocity
treaty as that concluded with France,
and now awaiting action by the SEN
ate, with those favorably interested,
the disproportion is SO enormous as to
make all argument appear ridiculous.
Readers of our economic literature are
doubtless familiar with the demonstra-
tion often made that the number of
working people now occupied in any
art of which competing foreign pro-
duct could be imported, whose liveli-
hood therefore depends on limiting
foreign commerce, is after all small
number in comparison with those en-
gagged in producing goods for export,
