Nelson Jones not Indicted.

The Addison county grand jury report
the young man from Shoreham who was
rrested charged with the murder of Ida
'osburg Miss Fosburg was a domestic
in the Jones family and her death was at
first thought to be suicide. but later de-
veopments indicated foul play. Miss
Fosburg died from the effects of a dose
of strychnine. The powder was received
in a letter mailed at the post office in
Shoreham. The letter was brought from
the post office by young Jones. 1t was
alleged that f. c. Spooner, druggist in
Brandon, received an order for strych-
nine by mail from Shoreham, the letter
being signed Ida Fosburg. The handwrit-
ing was evidently in masculine hand.
The druggist mailed Miss Fosburg Is
grains of strychnine in a paper in an en-
velope, the paper being marked poison
It was claimed that the letter from the
Brandon druggist never reached Miss
Fosburg, but that the package which she
did receive was evidently addressed in the
same handwriting as the letter sent to
Mr.. Spooner. A Rutland druggist also re-
ceived a letter from Jones asking for n
drug, stating he was in trouble This
drug was not sent, but Jones's letter was
turned over to the states attorney as
evidence. Young Jones's father, Miner
Jones, a wealthy man. died suddenly "A
few weeks ago at the Addison House in
Middlebury. He had worried greatly over
the charge against the son.

Fowl Grass-An Experiment Station
Bulletin.

Here are three important propositions
having an agricultural bearing:
!. Grass is the most valuable crop in
Vermont and in many parts of New Eng
land and New York.
2. No species of grass commonly cul-
tivated, does well on low, wet ground.
Such ground usually produces a mixture
Of weeds and sedges known as "swale
hay"
3. 1t has now been shown that native
species, fowl meadow grass, can he estab-
lished in these low meadows, where it
will thrive and produce hay equal in
quantity and quality to the best timothy
or red top.
This announcement rests on the result

Our Honor and Cuba's Need.

Marion Wilcox in the January Forum
And now let us see what may fairly be
alleged with regard to a special variety
of laundering which has been character
lied as profitable" The Cuban Conserv-
ative party. once called Autonomist and
more recently Union Democratic, figures
as the victim Of such a blunder. That
element of the islands population which
comprised the families of intelligence and
wealth was in 1895 friendly to Spain and
opposed TO the insurgents. II was assum-
ed 10y those who represented the author
itY of the United States in Cuba after
the termination of hostilities that the
work of reconstruction might go on with
ont the aid of such Spanish sympathizers,
that is to say, without the cooperation
of the best people of Cuba. "A natural
conclusion" does one say? II so closely
resembles a natural conclusion that II
served admirably as a preteXt. But while
we are speaking quite frankly, let us look
below the surface to discover the motives
which inspired the Conservative element.
These Conservatives, being people who
had much at stake, favored the power
which stood for the maintenance OF order.
whatever that power might be. Thus,
they were for Spain as against the reVo-
lutionists, SO long as Spain represented
the established order of things under
iards, determined to stick to the flag
through thick and thin, they most posi-
lively were not. as a class. CYnics they
We're and are in respect to the sentiment
of loyalty to a flag. They were not Con-
scrVativcs because they were Spanish, but
We're Spanish sympathizers because they
were Conservative. Adherents of Spain
while Spain represented stability, they be-
came the most reliable adherents of the
United States when our government alone
stood between them and the future of
perlious experiments proposed by the war
party which had split into the radical Re
publican and Nationalist parties, largely
composed of people with nothing to lose
and everything to win. Splendtdly dis
Interested patriots these Conservatives
certainly We're not; but they would have
been our natural allies If we had aimed
directly at building up an Independent
Cuban Republic through native ability.
They formed the element which alone had
shown real ability in the works of peace.
Our first military governor gave the
civil Offices to members of the war party
Our second military governor did not avail
himself of the services of respectable
Conservatives when he was preparing for
the Constitutional convention. If he had
done so a practicable constitution might
have been made. The reader who takes
the trouble to compare the text of the
constitution of the Republic of Cuba"
which bears date February 81, 1901, with
the program" of the n-Democratc
party, adopted December 90 1900, will
quickly perceive the difference between
the shabby work actually turned out and
the product of intelligence which might
have been secured. If General Wood had
enlisted the best Cuban talent the Cuban
Republic might have learned to swim
alone!
