WEEKLY TRADE REVIEW.



NEW YORK. Aug. l7.-Bradstreet's
review Of trade says
An improvement alike in tone and in
demand is noted in trade circles this
week and full trade may he said to have
opened actively. While the most opti-
mistic reports come from the Northwest.
several large markets in the corn belt
send more cheerful reports. based par
tally upon a still further improvement
IN crop conditions. but likewisce the re-
suit of the growth Of feeling that while
the yields of most crops will be smaller
than last year the prices paid for the
same will be higher and the purchasing
power Of the agricultural community as
a whole will be little impaired. Adj
vanccS in wheat. corn. oats and hog
products support this view
Southern trade advices are marred by
damage inflicted by the severe storm Of
Wednesday and Thursday. which ap-
pears to have hurt the Louisiana rice
crop severely. but it is not thought to
have hurt sugar or cotton very much.
Timely rains have improved cotton in the
Mississippi valley and advices from the
South Atlantic states are Of heavy
yield.
The industrial situation, if not better
as regards the steel strike is certainly
no worse, although there is talk Of a
strike Of print cloth mill employees at
Fall River because Of a reduction in
wages.
In textiles it is to be noted that the
talk Of strike. with the necessary cur
tailed production, has not strengthened
print cloths, which are 3-16 cent lower

just as the members of the bar of
North Eastern Vermont were preparing
to meet at St. Johnsbury the 18th inst
to join in a supper and to express their
satisfaction caused by the appointment
of Henry C. Bates as one of the Filipino
judges, and their regret at losing so
distinguished lawyer and advocate, it
was announced that Judge Bates had
received notice that the transport on
which he was to sail started five days
earlier than had been understood or ex-
pected. The result of this was that he
had to leave St. Johnsbury on the after
noon of the 18th thus rendering the pro-
posed banquet an impossibility. The
members of the bar are greatly disap-
pointed in thus losing an opportunity to
testify their high appreciation of the
character and ability of an associate
whose absence will lose so much to the
bar socially and professionally.
Says the st. Adams Messenger:
a farewell reception rendered to
Judge and Mrs. Henry G. Bates in the
museum at St. Johnsbury Saturday
night was largely attended by the towns
people. On behalf of the Mystic Club
Arthur F. Stone gave Mr.. Bates a gold
watch and chain and Alexander Dunnett
gave him an elegant diamond ring, gift
from the citizens of st. Johnsbury. Judge
Bates responded most feelingly. He
said he went to the Philippines from a
sense OF duty to his country and hoped
to help the natives along the lines of
good government and in the pursuit of
happiness under just laws. Judge Bates
and wife and Fletcher Ladd and family,
of Lancaster, started for San Francisco
Monday afternoon. Mason S. Stone
joins the Judge at San Francisco, whence
they sail March 25, in transport to
Manila.

WebSter'S Plea for Dartmouth.
How The Great Orators Effort Served ia
Preserve The College.

The following so clearly and in Ian
guage so comprehensive by the common
mind describes the contention and the
browning scene in the dartmouth Col
lege Case" that we cannot forbear re-
producing it
A crisis of great Importance in the
history of Dartmouth college and all
colleges occurred in the early part of the
last century, 1t came about as follows !:
An unfortunate quarrel between the sec
ond president, John Wheelock, the son
of the founder of the college, and the
trustees, grew into large proportions.
The State became involved, the two POI
litical parties were arrayed on opposite
sides. A new institution, called "Dart-
mouth University" was established by
friends of the second president, while
Dartmouth college went on-its way, ex-
listing if not rejoicing. Both institutions
were called to different chapels and reel
tation rooms by the same bell, and stu
dents passed and repassed each other,
with much chatting, on the same campus.
The State Supreme Court, before
which the case was first carried, decided
in favor of Dartmouth University. But
the case was at once appealed to the
Supreme Court of the United States.
The best legal talent of the country
argued the case on both sides, for it was
felt to be a test case, which would per
haps involve the life of Harvard and
Yale and every similar institution in the
country, if State could be allowed to
sci. aside college charter and establish
at will different institutions.
In this case Daniel Webster then &c
years OF age, made the first great speech
OF his life, speech which conferred the
eyes Of the whole country upon him
The Dartmouth college case is still re-
garded as one of the very few most i'm
portant cases that ever came before the
Supreme Court. Thus Americas fore
most orator ended his great speech :
"Sir, you may destroy this little institu-
ton. 1t is weak, it is in your hands.

literary horizon of our country. You

tinguish one after another all those

A few years since a president of the
Vermont Bar Association suggested that
TO cultivate in the minds of
clients respect for the law is as
important as its use in vindicating
their causes. And | am not quite
certain that our democratic preiu-
dice against the court dress and
emblems of authority borne by
court officers is entirely we'll foun-
ded. The sheriff with a naked
sword is forcible reminder that
the law contains physical force,
the suggestion of which tends to
avoid the occasion for its actual use.

nifty, authority, and the high and
sacred offices of the wearers."
Now the judges of the Supreme Court
of Massachusetts, at the request of the
bar and with the apparent approval Of
the public have donned the court dress
and other states are favorably consider
ing the propriety Of doing so. Elegant
and tasty ceremonials and appropriate
types and symbols are not suggestive Of
aristocracy, neither are rough, crude, and
familiar department, manners and dress
typical of true democracy. The more
we honor and distinguish the law by ex
ternal manifestations the more we cul
tivate a respect for law and order which
are the very foundations of democratic
government.

New York Railroads.

If anything were wanting to make
the people of New York realize that
they live indeed in an empire state,
the last report Of the state board Of
railroad commissioners would supply
it. The gross earnings last year of
the steam railroads reporting to the
state amounted to S247 100000. Only
three nations in the world possess rail
roads earning so much yearly. France,
Great Britain and Germany are the
three, and there is not much differ
ence between the gross earnings of all
the railroads in France and the earn
ings of. the railways which report to
the state of New York. The earnings
of the railways in Austria are about
one-half that amount, and Italy can
show only $50,G27 1915 as the earnings
of her railways against New York S
S247 900 900. The earnings of the rail
ways of Russia, including the trans
caspian lines and the Finland lines.
amount to nearly 100000 600 less than
those of New York state. New York
