A Business Proposition" Again.

The Barre Times thinks The Phoenix
is unduly alarmed about the de-
vastation caused by cutting off hun
dreds of thousands of Vermont spruces
and frs for the Christmas trade every
season. But it makes this suggestion:
"One thing is certain, however, and
that is that the Vermont farmer is
making a foolish trade when he sells
Christmas tree at from ten to twenty
five cents as most of them do. These
trees retail in New York and Phila-
delphia and other big city markets at
from SO to 81 each. The farmers who
have these beautiful holiday greens to
sell should get together and put them
on the markets themselves at the
trade centers whereby they ought to
realize a net price of from one to three
dollars each that now goes to the
spectators and middlemen. Why
wouldn't this be good opening for the
state grange to benefit the farmers of
the state?"
Our information is that Windham
county farmers gets less than a cent
a piece for the young evergreens as
But the difference is immaterial
whether they get paltry penny or a
paltry ten cents while the dealers
make dollar for every cent they pay
the farmers.
The Phoenix submits this PROPOSE
tion to The Times: Can better use
be made of our worn-out, moss-grown
and abandoned" Vermont pastures
(that never ought to have been strip
ped of their forest growth in the be-
ginning) than to allow them to grow
up again to woodland, acquiring, a
quarter century hence, a value which
they can never gain in any other way?
Gen. Lukban, the insurgent leader in
Samar, has offered to surrender to the
American forces if satisfactory terms can
be made.

The Vergennes Enterprise sighed
recently over the rut into which the
journalistic luminaries of the state
had fallen, and cried out for the cool
ing comfort of an original idea. The
brethren have of late broken away
from stereotyped forms in considera-
tion of the subject of spanking. Some
of these expressions seem to be ami
mated by childhood's recollections
which will never pass away. The
Morrisvilie News and Citizen eX-
presses an admiration for the hand
spanked boy, and a belief in his ad-
vantageous start in a strenuous life.
The Newport Express and Standard
observes: I'VE do not speak of spank
ing from the experience of a father,
but rather as a son who was spanked" !"
and the Northfeld News is moved to
remark that the editor of the Newport
contemporary must be a great object
lesson on the spanking question
either for the spankers or the anti
spankers.' The Barre Times, whose
editor is young, and who evidently re-
members something's more poignantly
than others, says: "The greatest
trouble with spanking is that it too
often represents i'll temper or indi-
gestion on the part of the parent
rather than wilful wrong doing on the
part of the child" The st. Adams
Messenger has held aloof from this
discussion, but may be heard from
when another symposium is in order
a decade or less hence, the scion of
the Greene household not having ap-
peared until last Monday night.

Congressman Moody of Massachu
setts has taken a bold and unquestion-
ably a right step in asking for a con
gressional investigation into the dis
enfranchisement of negroes in several
of the southern states. particularly
Louisiana. The first object of the in
quiry is to determine whether the dis.
enfranchising amendments of the
state constitution are violations of the
United States constitution; the sec
ond is to determine whether this dis
enfranchisement comes under the
fourteenth and fifteenth amendments
of the constitution, providing that the
basis of representation shall be re-
duced where the right to vote is de-
MED to any of the male inhabitants of
a state 81 years of age and citizens of
the United States. Mr. Moodys argu-
ment is that in case these disenfran-
chisements are not unconstitutional
devices and void, the provisions of
these amendments reducing represen-
tation proportionately to the extent
of the disenfranchisement should be
promptly and strictly applied.

The fight of the last two years over
oleomargarine will be renewed in the
57th Congress. The Grout bill passed
the House by a large majority at the
last session, and was reported from
committee in the Senate but was not
brought up for there for considera-
tion. This bill made oleomargarine
shipped from one state into another
subject to the laws of the state into
which shipped, regardless of the inter
state commerce law, and also increas-
ed the tax on oleomargarine colored
to initiate butter from 2 to 10 cents
per pound, and reduced the tax on un-
colored oleomargarine from 2 cents
to one-fourth of one per cent. 1t is
probable the tax on uncolored oleo-
margarine will be omitted from the
new bill. Mr.. Tawney of Minnesota
will have charge of the interests of
the bill in the coming fight in the
House.

The Boer war has cost the British
nation $6OO,OOO,OOO and the loss to
British individuals who held standard
stocks is estimated at $75O,OOO,OOO
through the depreciation in values,
but the real loss is much greater than
this sum, owing to the advance in
American securities listed on the Lon

The revolution in Colombia, to which
attention has been drawn recently by
the action of the United States au-
thorities at Colon, has been in pro-
gress two years, and during that time
$4,000 lives have been lost and the
country brought to the verge of ruin.
Frederick c. Penfeld, the author, who
was formerly American consul-general
in Egypt, has just returned from the
South American country. He says
that commerce is at a standstill and
national bankruptcy is threatened.
The issue which brought on the war
was the demand of the liberals to vote
as they saw fit. The conservatives,
intrenched in power, holding every
public office and ardently supported
by the church. denied to the liberal or
anti-church party the right to vote on
government questions.

The Phoenix, in it's article last week,
greatly underestimated the number of
young spruces and frs which have
been cut in Marlboro and are being
shipped from the Brattleboro station
to the Philadelphia market for the
Christmas trade. 1t is apparent that
the shipments already made, and to be
made, will reach at least 20 carloads,
making no less than 10000 to 10000
of the young trees. Probably 25 car
loads have already passed through
Bratteboro from the North. But this
is only small part of the trees which
have been cut in the central part of
the state, as the great volume of those
shipments goes down the other side OF
the mountain by the way of Benning-
ton.

Before the great freeze of 1895 Flor
ida marketed 100000 boxes of
oranges annually. This season it is
estimated that 100000 boxes will be
sent north, and next year more trees
will come into bearing and the crop
will be much larger. The state ex-
poets to reach the 100000 output
within five years and to double it in
ten. Many plantations are being set
out in Southern Florida below the
frost line, and in the northern section
costly precautions are being taken
against damage by frosts again. Flor
ida orange growers are confident they
will never experience again a great
disaster like that of 1895.

The Morrisville News and Citizen
trots F. w. Baldwin of Barton around
the ring, while dilating on the points
which make him desirable as a can
didate for lieutenant-governor. Moth
ing is said about his hub-dub scheme
several years ago, the silliest and
most unwarranted which any chair
man of a Republican state committee
ever perpetrated, whereby he at
tempted to dictate business methods
to the Republican newspapers of the
state. The woods are full of better
ientenant-governor timber than the
stick marked Baldwin of Barton.

life, made a characteristic reply re-
Gently in declining to discuss Presi-

saw d case of smallpox. With 10 to
20 cases of smallpox reported daily in

that all attacked by the disease are

The investigation of the board Of
health in Camden, New Jersey, where
the outbreak of tetanus or lock-
jaw occurred, shows no connection of
that disease with vaccination. The in
fection of tetanus resulted from neg
lect on the part of the patients to pre-
sent themselves to the attending ply
sicians. One case of tetanus occurred
from a gunshot wound during the same
period in boy who had not been vac
cinated, proving that tetanus germs
were in the atmosphere. Acute
tetanus appears always in from five
to nine days after the introduction of
germs, whereas in Camden every ac-
cute case developed in from three to
four weeks after vaccination. great
variety of tests and experiments shows
that the virus used was not contain
mated. The cases in Camden are ey
planned upon atmospheric and tellu &c
conditions. There had been a period
of dry weather with high winds, so that
tetanus germs, which have their nor
NAL habitat in the earth, dust, dirt of
stables, ETC., had been constantly dis
tributed in the atmosphere. 1t is
noticeable in all case that the wounds
had been exposed by the scab being
knocked off or removed, or the arm
been injured, and the infection result
ed. Frequently children scratched the
vaccinated area with their dirty fing-
ers and nails and infected the wound.
Tetanus or any other infection can
never occur if the vaccination is prop
erly protected from contact with the
atmosphere or with soiled clothing,
bandages, etc.

There is nothing of the Rough Rider
in the Presidents message. It is a
clear, dispassionate, dignified scholarly
and statesmanllke document. The
President sets precedents aside in
eliminating the bulky departmental re-
ports and devotes but little attention
to foreign relations, but he considers
such large range of domestic sub
jects so exhaustively that the message
is one of the longest ever presented to
Congress. He makes specific recon-
mendations regarding laws against
anarchy, the mercantile marine, the
isthmian canal, the army and navy,
civil service, Pacific cable and other
subjects. He deprecates revision Of
the tariff, and discusses at length re-
ciprocity, the trusts and other vital
topics. The summary in another col
umn gives a good idea of the salient
points in the message and the most
interesting discussion regarding indus
trial conditions, tariff, reciprocity and
the Philippines is reproduced in full
by the Phoenix.
