The Pardon Craze

The people of Vermont should become
thoroughly aroused to the dangers
threatening this commonwealth in con-
nection with the constantly increasing
tendency to secure executive clemency
Tor convicted criminals. This abuse has
spread throughout the State until it has
approached dangerously near to a craze.
In the effort to secure the ends Of JUS
tice and promote the public welfare, the
state spends thousands of dollars an
nually in the trial of persons charged
with offences, and in far too many cases
conviction and sentence are soon fol
lowed by the signing of petitions by
prosecuting officers and jurors and prac-
tically all who had a hand in securing
Justice asking for pardon for the Grim
inal on the ground that he has been
nunished enough or some other plea.
Once In a great while newly discovered
evidence shows that a guiltless man has
been convicted of some crime. but in the
great majority of cases where pardons
have recently been sought in Vermont,
either the prisoner has been sick, or he
has been punished enough in the opinion
OF the sentimentalsts, or some other
snecious excuse Is offered in his behalf
hen a man or woman Is found guilty
of n crime and sentenced to pay the pen
atty. the court and the jurors as well as
the community, have all the facts in the
case fresh in mind; and in this age the
lawyers for the defense are certain to
secure for their clients the benefit Of
every Influence that will palliate the Of
fence or lis the sentence. The pub
liz is not often shocked by too heavy
sentences, but it is disturbed not infre
,uontly by the imposition of penalties not
at all commensurate with the crime lr
most cases, therefore, the presumption
i. that unless absolutely new evidence is
discovered showing the innocence Of the
offender, justice has already been DONE

Sir Thomas Upton has taken kindly
to the suggestion that at the conclusion
of the series of races for the America $
cup the competing yachts exchange skip
pers and crews, in order to ascertain to
what extent skill in handling the yachts
figured in the contests. 1t is to be hoped
that this suggestion may be carried
out; for If it should transpire that the
American crew won the victory, Sir
Thomas might be moved to try a crew
from this side of the Atlantic in his
next contest.

WHAT OUR NEIGHBORS SAY
Land Values in Vermont Rising--One
Third Higher Than Twenty Years
AGO.

II would be Of some interest TO those
proposing to invest in Vermont real es-
tate to know that land values here are
rising ANA are in fact ever orr.ti.rd
greater now than they were twenty
years ago.
According to the last census $500 the
assessed value of real estate was
In lsso $40, 1876, ST.
In 1880 SIP. Ss5125.
In 1900, $llS,950,02i
The increase has been slower, appar
emily, in the last decade, but this very
likely due in large parts to the impe rice
lions of tie census of 1880
A part of this increase in real estate
values is due to the increase Of manu-
features but not all. And it is fairly
safe to say that land on the whole is
increasing in value.
This can be inferred perhaps also from
a study of Ncrmont's chief Industries
These are classified in the census as
follows:
l Cheese, butter, condensed milk. etc.
Flour, etc.
Foundry products.
Hosiery and knit goods
Lumber.
e Lumber products
I Marble, granite, etc.
Monuments and tombstoneS-
Paper
10 Wool-manufactures.
Now of these ten manufactures only
two viz, dairy products and monuments
and tombstones, have increased very much
in the last decade:
1890 1900
Dairy products ..........sl, 60, ell 15,G56, go
Monuments and tomb
stones ...... ............ 1.i923S9 4,0S5.Gll
The dairy industry thus not only leads
| In actual value, but IL has increased four
millions in the last ten years, which
means an increase in value of cows and
of the land ON which the cows must be
| fed.
Residents of Windsor county will per
haps be surprised to learn how high it
ranks as an Industrial county The to-
Nal value of Nermonts manufactured
products in 1900 was 80, 623 SO, and of
those of Windsor county, S5,139 30. In
other words Windsor county produced
one-tenth of all the manufactured pro-
ducts of Vermonts IA counties.

advantage of an address delivered at the

There will be an increased demand for
universal language, if different ma

the world follow the example of the
Hungarlans in insisting that all orders

point. Imagine orders to the American
army being given in English, German,
French, Spanish and so on throughout

\ Deserved Tribute 10 the Memory OF
President Chester A. Arthur.
G'rom the Troy On. y Times)

At Fairfield over in Vermont August
a. there was an impressive ceremony in
connection with the erection OF granite
monument on the site of the cottage
where Chester A. Arthur was born. The
man whose memory was honored was the
only native Nermonter who ever occupied
the presidential chair. Two of President
Arthur cabinet officers delivered ad-
dresses William f.. Chandler of New
Hampshire, who was secretary Of the
navy, and Robert r. Lincoln of lllinos,
who was secretary of war.
Chester A. Arthur was the 2lst Prcsi-
dent, having succeeded to the post by
the untimey death of James A, Garfield.
Though born in Vermont. President Ar
thur was for most of his life resident OF
New York State and at one time he was
collector of the port of New York. His
political career was somewhat stormy
but he made creditable record as the
nations chief executive. The events of
his administration did not make history
so rapidly as previous and later occur
ronCcs have done. Yet someone has said
it is the nations with little or no history
which are the happiest. During Presi-

Spectators are now comforting them
selves with the thought that the late
heavy decline in the prices of stocks
was intensified by artificial means. This
may be true but in view Of the amount
of water contained in many Of the
stocks, one should hardly look for the
invariable operation Of natural causes in
Wall Street.
