At Fairfield yesterday afternoon Yer
mont paid tribute to the memory 81 Pres-
dent Chester A. Arthur, BY erecting a
monument on the spot whore stood the
house Ia which he was born, while the
only honor President Arthur ever con-
ferred on Vermont was his chance birth
IN the state. But that Is not the question
Nermonters may not have any sentimental
feeling for the man who when mere lad
left the state Of his birth, without having
conferred any special benefit on the state
But from historical view point the ac-
ton in defeating the monument yester-
day was entirely commendable such bits
Of our national history should be kept in
memory and one Of the easiest ways to do
that is by the erection Of monument
which need not be elaborate to serve its
purpose Tne erection Of the Arthur
memorial was not Of itself state affair
It was national, and the erection should
really have been made BY the national
government; but in view Of the fact that
the national government had overlooked
the matter on account Of Its trivialty the
state 81 Vermont has done well in looking
after it.

The first trial Of the two yachting giants
was unsatisfactory and indeeislye. The
weather conditions were far from the kind
TO make good exhibition Of sailing, In
fact The conditions were about as poor as
could be Imagined A light wind sinking
gradually until IN the latter part Of the
race, there was scarcely enough to fill the
immense sails Of the boats and a dreneh-
ing downpour Of rain falling, acoompan-
led BIZ mist which shut off the yachts
from the view Of the spectators and made
sailing dificult such was the inauspic-
ious opening Of the first race in the series
Of races, which is today occupying the at
tentlon Of the yachting world In such
conditions the exhibition was a failure
and It was no true test of the merits Of
the Reliance and Shamrock Ill The adj
vantage, to be sure, appeared to be with
the American boat. although the difference
was not SO appreeiable as has been seen
iii previous races between British and
American yachts. What the result viii
be in heavier winds is still an open ques-
ton, but the brush between the two boats
yesterday afternoon demonstrated that
Reliance is probably faster in allght wind,
although that fact Is not conclusively
proven. 1t is hoped that future contests
between the two win be furnished with
enough wind to at least allow the winner
to finish In the time limit.
