ARTHUR ROPES, General Editor.
THE NEWS is UNINFoRMED.

Who are these people that "have
long supported and advocated the ref
erence of the question of license or re.
striction to the people,? The Journal
certainly is not one. Can the Journal
name any prohibitionist in Vermont
from Morrow down who has Long
supported and advocated such sub
mission? 1t cannot do so.
This, and more of the same sort,
from the Burlington News of Satur-
day. The contemporary has simply
come under the malign influence OF
the Dog Star, and is seized with the
rabies which, in the common belief,
prevails when this star of i'll repute Is
in conjunction with the sun. In re-
spect of the foregoing paragraph, the
contemporary exhibits an ignorance
of "contemporaneous affairs that is
almost criminal in a newspaper editor.
''The Journal certainly is not one
The Journal mentioned is this paper.
1t has not time to instruct the Bur"
lington contemporary or coach him in
the duties of his calling. The better
informed Herald of Rutland of the
same date, writing of the referendum,
says;
So far as the Journal is concerned,
we will give it the credit of advocat-
ing for some years a referendum.
1t is hardly worth the while to fol-
low further the News challenge, 1T
cannot do so" The circumstance that
it's College street contemporary, the
Free Press. has hitherto-before the
pending canvass was matter even of
prophecy-advocated, or acquiesced in,
the proposition of 1.-THE reference of
the question of license or restriction
to the people" ought to add to the
News confusion. And there are
other newspapers. Among the great
middle class of Republicans who favor
and stand by restrictive liquor laws
the feeling has long existed that the
question of measures might properly
be submitted for a rehearing. Some
have taken a strictly constitutional
view of the proposition-that it is the
business of the General Assembly to
make the laws that the people hav-
ing performed their constitutional
duty in choosing the members of the
General Assembly, their part in max.
ing the laws thereby ends. But
even these c~ontenders, on techni'
cal grounds, against the reteren'
DUN had subordinated their legal
opinions to the common sense of the
proposition and had become sup
porters of and believers in the wis
dom and propriety of the proposition
to submit this question of the name
of regulating the liquor traffic to the
people. These different elements have
for some time past been coming to-
gether and the result was the referen'
dunn plank of the late convention but
what was a natural gravitatlng OF
thinking people towards a common
conclusion, the somewhat bumptious
AS we'll as ambitious-Mr. Clement
and his following are loudly claiming

PENNY POSTAGE,
Tho Incident That Led to It's EStab-
Iishmcnt In England.

Many years ago, when Queen Vie
toria first began 20 reign, IL cost nine
pence 20 send a letter from one Eng
lish city 10 another. In those days the
postage was not paid by the sender
OF the letter, as is now customary, but
by the receiver. So OF course, there
were many poor people who could not
afford to pay ninepcnce when their
mail arrived, and il often happened
that they were Obliged TO forfeit the
letters.
One day man named Rowland Hill
was riding on the outskirts of city,
and he saw a postman bring letter 20
young girl and demand ninepence
for il. The girl took the letter. scru-
tinted IL carefully and then handed It
back 10 the man, saying she could not
nfford TO pay the postage. Thereupon
Rowland Hin, being q kind hearted
man. rode ~ and insisted upon paying
II himself. When the postman had
gone the girl confessed 20 her bone
factor that the letter was from her
lover. anil To avoid paying ninepmce
or every lotror me- made certain marks
or the envelope which She alone could
dcciphcr.

KANSAS CITY STOCK YARDS
FIGHT STILL CONTINUES.
Commission Men and the Company
Both Remain. Adnmant-Other
Markets Mny Profit.

Kansas City. Mo-. April 12--The stock
yards boycott, declared yesterday by men,
berS of the Live Stock Exchange because
of an obnoxious rule adopted by the stock
yards company. was still In force to-day.
Both sides appear determined to maintain
their position and no immediate settlement
is in sight.
AS Saturday is Il short day, it was not
possible to ted what effect the commission
mems request to shippers to send their
cattle, hogs and sheep to other markets
had on the receipts. The packers say
they do not believe the boycott
will have much influence on next
weeks receipts of hogs, at least.
Packers openly assert that they will
buy from owners If the commission men
refuse TO sell to them and the yard COM
pany insists that buyers will be at the
yards as usual In all departments, anxious
to buy all classes of stock.
Reports were current at the exchange to-
day that commission firms at st. Joseph
and ST. Louis were taking advantage of
the situation and were flooding the coun-
try with circulars inviting shippers to ship
to these markets..
