Railway and Engineering Review
The ticket scalpers who are ont ON bail
In Chicago after conviction and pending
decision ON an application for new
trial concluded not to wait for the result
Of the hearing, but Jumped" their bail
leaving their b0ndsmen in lurch, one OF
them, it is said, clipping with his step
daughter. The charge so often made 10y
the bcalpers that the movement OF Tie
railroads against them amounted simply
TO the persecution Of honest men, does
not seem 10 be BONE ont by the results
i'm this case. II the dishonest acts Of the
fraternity m connection With the Buffalo
Exposition could be collated, it would
make a chapter, or rather a book, that
would startle the community Hundreds
of tickets purchased from dishonest bro
kers have been taken mp by the railroads
on the trains ont OF Buffalo and their hold
ders obliged TO pay their fare or get off
the train. This i'm all cases has been a
serious annoyance, and in very many
cases an absolute hardship. II view Of
the universal condemnation Of the BUSH
ness By those who have investigated it, 1t
would seem az If the papers throughout
the country could perform no better ser
vice for the public than TO warn them
against the purchase Of tickets from the
brokers. Particularly is this necessary in
! the rural districts and in local papers.
/ People living in large cities have no ex-
cuse for ignorance on this subject. The
great dailies have time and again pub
| lished accounts Of the frauds perpetrated,
and the danger of dealing with scalpers
is generally understood at such points.
It is rare, however, that the country pa
pers give place to items Of this character,
and It would be an act Of positive value
to their readers if the rural press would
set fourth the danger which attends any
transactions with the ticket scalpers.

THE FOSBURG MURDER.

PITTsFIELD, Mass, Jan. 26.-At IL
O'Clock this morning Robert Dewart
Fosburg, son of Robert l. Fosburg, a
prominent builder and contractor of
Rochester, N. Y, was arrested, charg-
ed with the murder of his sister, Miss
May l.. Fosburg August 20 last.
The prisoner has been ordered held
on $4,000 bail. Police officers Dean
aud Flynn found Fosburg at the works
of the Stanley company where he is
supervising the construction of large
factory.
May L.Fosburg was murdered on the
night of Aug. 20 in her fathers house.
Fosburg, senior, described to the police
when they arrived, that three men en-
tered the house. He was awakened,
confronting them in the hall, was Crap
pied, receiving blow over his eye.
At the same time Miss Fosburg ap-
peared, also her brother. The elder
Fosburg stated that the revolver in the
hands of the intruders was discharged,
the bullet striking Miss Fosburg dead
rhe intruders became frightened and
escaped over the piazza roof. The
most rigid search for days over the
whole surrounding country by a hun
dred men failed to reveal traces of the
murderers.

The Matter with Vermont!

What is the matter with Vermont?
This question, like the filling of the
vermiform appendix in the diaphragm,
has crawled into the mind of the editor
of the Randolph Herald and Ne,os, and
the lobes have been set a-whirll
The down the State editor answers
his own query, "a lot of things all
Vermont" Yet he hopes for it-one
little hopel He would develop her min
eral resources, and then he mentions
them-marble, granite, slate, tale, lime
stone, asbestos, copper. Strange that
this knowledge has just come to the
Herald and NeDs mani For three
years, almost every week, this paper
has attempted to show that Vermont
possesses resources that would in her
fame and wealth if taken advantage Of.
In way Vermont is farming State,
but 1t is in small way compared with
what she might be in another direction.
Farming would be made twice as profit
able il the mineral wealth Of the State
was worked as it should be.
Outside capital is coming to the State
today to develop asbestos mines and
reopen some of the old copper mines.
There is abundant wealth in Vermont
to handle successfully every mineral
product in her earth.
But this has been said before. Some
people can see things that are right
under their nose, but cannot see things
that are all over theml-Essex Record.

The KefOrmer's Referendum.

The Burlington Free Press thinks
the RefOrmer's argument for the refer
endum principle has" considerable mer-
it," but at the same time mistakes the
idea as one for a referendum on the
question of the substitution of the dis
trict system of representation. This, it
says the power of the small towns would
block lust as certainly as if the House
were voting Oh the direct question"
This is quite true, undoubtedly. But
our argument was for referendum
system as an antidote for the unequal
representation, not on any question of
getting rid of the latter-as legisla-
tive attachment not for constitution
chan ging. That isl, that unde desig-
mated conditions as in Switzerland on
any question of legislation, an appeal
can be taken to the people by means of
a referendum. The idea is that with
this palliative for it's evils the present
system of presentation can,be allowed
TO stand, with such advantages as it
has and because it is about impossible
OF overthrow anyway. 1t would mean
that in ordinary matters our law-mak-
ing would 60 along as now; but when
an issue of supreme importance arises
or one where wrong and injustice are
being wrought by minority rule, the
remedy would be at hand by going to
the rightful source of power for instruc-
ton. This can be done, as it al
ready has been twice at least in the
States history by simple legislative &C.
ton on any particular measure.-Brat-
tleboro Reformer.

avoided. The time when the Cuban
convention will end its work on a con-
stitution and have that instrument
ready to submit to Congress may be in
definitely extended by the deliberations
or contentious of that body, and the
situation there not deemed to be Of
pressing importance.
The Spooner bill, or resolution, pro-
vides for civil government in the Philip
pines as soon as the instruction ends,
and gives to the President power TO set
up such government until Congress
shall draft comprehensive plan for
the management of the aft airs of the
islands. Such a plan would require
months to prepare and adopt, and,
within reasonable limits, the longer the
task is postponed the more complete
will be the understanding of the real
situation in the archipelago and the
better able ought Congress to be TO per-
form the important task it must under
take. There are good reasons why the
Spooner resolution should be adopted
and the situation left to develop and
mature before Congress takes it in
hand.
In Cuba events are working up tC
a crisis in the relations between the
island and the United States. The
Constitution the Havana convention
will present for the ratification of the
Congress of the United States it car
hardly be expected will be such al
instrument as was framed by the au
thors of the Constitution of the United
| States. In its best estate IL will bt
crude, incomplete and more or lesI
emotional. The Washiugtons, Frank
Inns, Adamses, Jeffersons and other
of eminence in the famous American
convention are probably not conspic
uous in the Havana body, and its worl
will need careful overhauling b,
Congress. The defects the CubaI
constitution will inevitably contain will
be "due TO the desire to start govern
ment out of time and ahead OF tim
among people cardlnally unified t.
conduct it themselves"

Amend the Record.

The st. Adams Messenger is Willing
away the winter days in various COM
mendable expedients to kill time and
make its columns interesting. Among
other thi gs, the contemporary has been
burrowing in musty records for the
leading events of the century in Yer
mont history. The toll, especially for
the last fifty years of the period, is like
the tabled labor of the Mountain and
its diminutive rodent progeny; or it is
the seeking of Bassanio in two bushels
of chat for two grains of wheat, and
when they are found they are not
worth the search.
The Messengers grubber skips from
1867 to 1870, missing the last meeting
of the council of censors and the as
sembling of the last constitutional con-
vention in 1869. This council recon-
mended and the convention adopted
the proposed change from the annual to
the biennial system of elections and ses-
sions of the General Assembly. This
convention was also responsible for
placing the irrational and unrepublcan
ten-year time lock on the Constitution
and its accessory enormities, which for
thirty years have made it impossible
even to attempt to adapt the supreme
law of the State to existing needs and
conditions and the requirements of q
truly popular government.
This year of 1869, which the Mes
Senger has overlooked, is one of bad
prominence in the history of the
State. The old way of Constitution
amendment, through council of Gen.
sors and a constitutional convention,
Objectionable as 1t was in some re-
spects, was vastly better than the new.
Under the amendment of 1869 Vermont
has government by minority Of
eleven Senators, about one-third of the
upper branch of the General Assem-
bly,. This is Republican form of
government with vengeance.
