THE VERMONT SUNDAY
SCHOOL ASSOCIATION.

The Vermont Sunday school Asso-
citation was organized in 1869 for the
purpose of promoting the interests Of
the Sunday schools of the different
denominations. AT the present time
there are 23 denominations in the
State thus associated. The method of
work is by holding township and
county conventions, visiting Sunday
schools, establishing interdenomina-
tional home departments, and, where
there is but one church in COM
munity, encouraging a home depart
ment there, developing teacher train
ing Glasses, and unising the Sundy-
school forces in given town into
township association. During the
last year the field secretary has visit
ed nearly 400 Sunday schools connect
ed with fourteen denominations. has
held 100 township conventions and
Conferences, has attended II county
and district conventions. The plan
of the association for the future are
even more aggressive, and the conf ing
State convention at Ludlow in Octo
Der will show great advances.

PROTECT THE PRESIDENT.

At last there is every probability
that a bill will soon be enacted by
Congress which will afford the Presi.
dent fuller protection against assault.
The Senate committee on the Judiciary
has acted favorably upon bill that
ought to be adequate for the demands
of the conditions and there is little
question that it will become law.
The bill provides that any attempt
upon the life of the President or upon
the life of any officer in the line of
succession shall be punishable by
death whether successful or unsuccess-
full. Similar protection is extended
to foreign ministers or ambassadors in
this country while engaged in the
performance of their duties. Access.
series before or after the fact are to
be dealt with as principals, but the
court is authorized in it's discretion to
impose sentence of not less than ten
years at hard labor.
1t is now two years and half since
President Mckinley met his death at
the hands of an assassin and in that
time there have been a number OF
times that real danger was threatened
to the person of President Roosevelt.

PARKER GAINS SIREN 9TH.

1t is practically certain now that
the State of New York will send to
the Democratic national convention a
body of delegates instructed to work
for the nomination of Judge Parker as
the party candidate for President.
During this week enough of the DEM
ocratic primaries in that State bave
been held 80 give very fair idea OF
what the general results will be. APP
parently the whole State, with the
exception of three counties in Greater
New York controlled by Tammany,
stands for Parker, and even those
counties do not stand against him.
Mr. Murphy. the head Of Tammany,
has taken great pains not to declare
against Parker at any time. He has
favored Grover Clev Gland for the can
didate of the party, but it is under
stood that he is at last convinced that
there is no hope of inducing the ex-
President to again enter active politi-
cal life. The election of an unin-
structed delegation in New Jesley
settled that question. With Cleve-
land out of the race, Murphy has
favored sending an uninstructed dele
CATION to st. Louis, not because he
was opposed to Parker, but because he
was not sure Of the possibility or the
wisdom of choosing the judge as a
standard bearer. No doubt the fact
that Parker has been pushed forward
by the Hill-McOarren interests has
had SOME influence in keeping Mr..
Murphy opposed to an open deolara-
ton in his favor.
However that may be, an instructed
delegation seems certain, for it is
claimed by conservative Democratic
papers that Parker will have 300 out
of the total $50 delegates, even with
out single vote from the Tammany
strongholds and allowing for unex-
pected defeotions in other quarters.
And it is quite possible that this may
not be so badly in opposition to Muir
phys wishes after all, for 1T is known
that he is opposed to Hearst and it
begins to look as though the contest
might in the end narrow down to a
fight between Parker and Hearst. In
that case it is very probable that the
influence of solid, Instructed delega-
ton behind Parker would be worth
having. Some of the southern leaders
have gone 80 far as to say that their
States will send delegations for Parker
if New York distinctly asks for the
nomination; otherwise, not.
The New York World, one of the
leading Democratic papers OF the
country, has all along insisted that
Cleveland should again take the lead,
but the World has decided that furth-
er endeavor to coax him out of private
life is useless, and has now declared
squarely for Parker as the Logical
candidate under existing conditions
Other papers are taking the same
stand. 1t is reported that majority
of the Democratic congressman are
favorable to Parker. The develop
ments of the past of the last few
weeks have mostly been favorable tt
the judge and indications are now
that he will get the nomination

acted. 1t should have deterrent
effect upon would-be assassins and
even if it does not it will give the
people greater feeling of security.
1t is terrible record that this country
has--three Presidents shot in less
than forty years of the country's
history. Everything reasonable and
not incompatible with the ideas OF a
democratic people should be done to
guard against another disaster of
like import.

heart disease, not organic, are not only

swels the stomach, putting 1t up against the

CHILDREN'S TESTIMONY.

The dangers OF relying on the testi-
mony of children in important cases
in court was illustrated with terrible
force in Chicago the other day. Will
lam Mccarthy and four other young
men were on trial for the murder of a
man who was killed during strike
troubles, and practically the only evil
dence against them was that of little
girl named Appolonia Starosts. The
girl testified at first that she saw the
whole affair, saw all of the men, and
that Mccarthy shot three times and
then the others shot. Later she told
the court that she had not seen the
tragedy, knew nothing about it, and
that she had been told what to testify
to by the widow of the man who was
killed. This sudden change Of front
left the innocence of the prisoners I'M
questioned and the prosecuting attor-
ney at once secured permission from
the court to mol pros the charges
against the prisoners. They were re-
leased by order OF the court.
1t is said that children and fools
tell the truth and there is some wis
dom in the remark, but it is also true
that it is very easy matter 20 teach
a child otherwise. The spirit OF
truth telling is not always innate in
children and they do not always ap-
preoiate what they are doing when
they lie under oath.
