1.-THE Spotter," S. d. Wilson, alias
Waite, who was acquitted last week in
Windsor county court of the charge of
the murder of E. r. Goshen at White
River Junction, Immediately left the
state He says he shall quit this bust
ness forever. The verdict is universally
condemned by the.press and all who are
acquainted with the testimony. The St.
Adams Messenger says;
"lf the verdict of this jury is to be
taken as signifying that the people of
Vermont approve of the "spotter" sys-
TEN and all of its attendant evils and
that they will protect "spotters' from
the consequences of crimes committed by
them while plying their nefarious calling
then it is time the sober second though
of Nermonters came to their rescue from
humiliation such as all the high handed
abuses of civil rights fathered by pro-
hibitiOn never have brought upon them
before

This, from the New York Tribune, is
Just as true as pre- aching: "The aban-
doned farms in the eastern states which
have been so much talked of in recent
years, might now be used with advan-
tage for the raising of beef cattle, horses
and mules, which are in urgent demand
at high prices, aud of which there is not
likely to be all excessive supply for a
long time to come" The EEGtsTER has
long advocated this as it foresaw that
the rapid settlement of the west would
inevitably tend to raise the price of beef,
etc Just so long as the great plains of
the west could be used free for grazing
purposes, beef, ETC., would be cheap.
When these lands are taken up by settlers
and divided into farms, as is fast being
done, the eastern farmer can raise beef,
cattle and mules as profitably as his
western brother. Better days are In
store for Vermont farmers.

COM NJ ENCiNG.

The commencement season at our IN
situations of learning Is at hand. EXer-
cises on this occasion are so varied, and
pertain so generally to all college classes
in one way or another, that we are liza
BILE to overlook the fact that commence
ment proper belongs to the seniors
alone. Its name is bestowed upon 1t
because ii marks the period when the
more advanced students cease gathering
lore, bury the delights, sorrows and
rivalries of their educational era, and
commence life in earnest. Strichy
speaking commencement week" al
though in common use, is a misnomer.
The period thus designated is only the
week IN which commencement day hap
pens, and the actual hour of commence
ment does not arrive until the gradu-
ates receive their diplomas, and face the
struggle of life, aided by the learning
they have gained.
1t is the most important epoch thus
far in the life of a young man or women.
During their scholastic curriculum they
have found little time to think seriously
of the future. A decided bent in cases
here and there may decide a career, and
there are always some whose earlier
employment has been mapped out for
them by parents; but the majority
graduate with the world all before them,
like an oyster, which they are called
upon to open with their intellectual
swords. Many of these will be disap-
pointed in the outset. There Is no
royal road to life any more than there
Is to learning, and if one has gained
any amount of .eIudition he will not
find he can rest on his oars and expect
it to bring him success. Nothing but
chagrn awaits those who depend upon
this. Not few graduates of this year
will soon begin to feel that four years
of their life have been wasted, as they
see some of their own age who have
learned trade, perhaps, already well
started, while they are vainly hunting
for an opening. But In the order of
things this apparent advantage gained
by the uneducated is like a handicap In
race in which the inferior horses start
first. In the end blood, typifed by
culture, and speed and stamina born of
of learning, will win. No particle of
education is valueless. As it is true
in the processes of nature:-
THAT not worm is chosen in vain;
That not moth, with vain desire,
Is shrivelled IN fruitless fire.
Or but subserves another's gain
so it is true in life that nothing is
learned In vain, and the ultimate worth
of systematic learning under competent
and iudicious teachers cannot be over
estimated. 1t may be necessary for
the graduate to be patient, and the delay
may be heard to bear, but the saying is
that "all things come to him who waits
not to him who waits slothfully, but
to him who does what he can and waits
with cheerfulness, and without worry
ing, for whatever the future has in store.
Above all, we exhort all the graduates
of 1902, at Middlebury or elsewhere, to
bear In mind that there are two nouns,

The illustrated summer number of the
Stowe Messenger issued last week was
alike credit to this enterprising Vermont
town and its local paper. 1t contained
II pages, four of which were printed on
book paper and profusely illustrated with
fine half tone cuts of Stowe. Mt. Mans
field, and the beautiful scenery that has
made that town one of the most popular
summer resorts in the state. The de-
scriptive matter was well written and the
paper cannot fail to prove of lasting
benefit to this fair Vermont town. Such
enterprise is ever to be commended. If
every local paper would follow the good
example of the Stowe Messenger and
boom the attractions of its town, Yer
mont would soon be the Mecca of summer
tourists.

FRIDAY, JUNE 20, 1902
REAR ADMIRAL CLARK.

Justice has at last been done that
matchless, silent hero, that brave yet
modest man, Capt. Charles f. Clark of
the Oregon.
President Roosevelt has made him a
rear admiral of the navy and all the
world says amen.
To Capt. Clark, more than to any
other man, was due the complete ami
hilation of the Spanish navy at Santiago.
1t was Capt. Clark who guided the
Oregon, that fierce leviathan of hammer
ed steel, around the world safe through
unknown dangers, in season that her lips
of steel might proclaim in voice OF
thunder over the shattered hulks of a
proud European navy the birth of new
and greater naval power than the world
had ever seen.
1t was Capt Clark who there and then
taught the powers of hostile Europe to
respect the valor and matchless aim of
American seamen, as did his ancestors
on many bloody sea half a century be-
fore.
While VermOnters will ever hold in
dear and proud memory the name of its
most honored son, Capt. Charles E.
Clark, let them also remember and re-
spect President Roosevelt, who brushed
aside the petty barriers of envy and
jealousy, with which the aristocrats of
the navy department sought to keep a
modest man from his just reward. so
braVely won.
