Continuing, the report says:
Dispatches from all sections testify to
the liberal distribution of merchandise
and the disposition TO prepare for greater
consumption of all the neeessaries of life,
while the crops are making good progress
aside from some cotton districts in Tex
Us. The number of buyers in New York
is increasing and a heavy fall trade is
anticipated
IL is gratifying to find that consumers
of pig iron have AT last apparently de-
cided to place contracts without waiting
for further concessions. The decline has
now reached its limit, judging by the
larger amount of contracts offered. and
this Is the most important indication of
a restoration to normal conditions of
prosperity in the steel industry. 1t IS
estimated that a large tonnage of struc-
tural steel will soon be ordered for de-
livery in 1904, although this is in large
measure dependent on labor controver-
sizes. The railways are still vigorous
purchasers of steel, especially as to rails.
There is fair business in plates and
sheets, but an effort to resell an over
supply of billets has produced tempo
rary weakness in that division.
There is sufficient business on the
books of New Engklnd shoe manufactur-
ers TO assure full operation of machinery
for several months. While large sales of
upper leather are reported. there is little
demand for sole. Domestic hides again

ness said he heard Jett say: This
is the forty fifth l have laid low now
I'll visit my kinfolks."
The murder of Marcum reused the
people of the State. Jet had been
hired to kill Marcum by feudists OPP
posed to the latter, and his friends
defended him with such ability and
vigor that it was only after two trials
that he received life sentence. Re-
Gently, for the murder of Cockrill, Jett
has been sentenced to be hanged on
December 18.
But these two sentences, life i'm
prisonment and 20 be hanged, do not
make it certain that Jet will abide
for life within prison walls or that he
will dangle at the end Of the halter.
Besides the causes already named, the
exercise Of the pardoning power of the
Governor of Kentucky. it is main
tanned, has had much to do with the
unbridling of lawlessness in that
State. The statistics of executive
olemency are truly appalling. Begin
ming with the record of Gov. Brown,
in 1889, 1881 per sons, before they Ell
tered the penitentiary walls, have been
pardoned of crimes of which they
were convicted by the courts; 100 men
sentenced to lise-imprisonmen have
been set free after serving an average
of seven and oue-half years; 247 per-
sons convicted of some kind OF felony
have been pardoned; Governor Brown
pardoned 81 murderers; Governor
Bradley, 81; Governor Beckham, in
four years, pardoned II convicted
criminals. Many of the pardoned
were feudists, and in every instance
in which criminal of this class had
been convicted by the courts pardon,
on the Importantly of friends, was
granted. 1t is the irony of fate that
among the petitioners for pardon of
Jett appears the name of Marcum, the
attorney whom Jet subsequently shot,
and it was Marcum who presented the
petition to the Governor asking that
Jett be given his liberty.
The moral of these facts need
hardly be enforced on communities, in
which the tendency is to excuse or
palliate crime; or to seek, or to grant,
executive clemency for violators of
law; or to discriminate between Of
tenders by reason of social or family
standing, or by reason of ability to
awaken public sympathy and marshall
it before the courts for the mitigation
of punishment, or the Chief Executive
for the undo;ng of the sentence of
the courts.

Tense. The delay thus caused Bur-
goyne rendered necessary the expedi-
tion to Bennington for supplies; the
defeat at Bennington was the preour-
sor of the surrender at Saratoga, and
the capture of Burgoyne's army fore
doomed the fate of England's attempt
to subdue the rebellion of the Ameri-
can coloninsts. All of these martial
enterprises Warner saw, and of much
the most important he was an essential
part. His bravery and military capac-
ity were highly esteemed by the Off
GERS of the Continental army.
Impoverished in fortune, worn out
by the hardships of his military SER
vice, he went back to Connecticut to
premature death-at the age of
forty-one. The State of Connecticut
raised a granite obelisk above his
grave. What monument has Vermont
reared to Warmers memory? What
memorial anywhere appears in the
State he served so well and brilliantly ?

Ethan Allen, Seth Warner and Re-

peculiar triumvirate of honor. Baker
died resisting Burgoyne's descent upon
the colonists. 1t is highly incumbent
on these colonial and revolutionary as
sociations of the State to see to it
that, in ma rble or enduring bronze,
Vermont recalls tho memory of each
to the present and coming generations.
