Farm Values G0inq up.

There is certainly another side to
the shield in this matter of agricul.
tural Vermont. Farms are not so
dead property as many people i'm
agine. In fact farm property seems
to be very much alive. A farm near
Rutland sold at auction Saturday for
seventy dollars an acre, and it was
not what would be called choice land.
Those who hold the lands it is pro-
posed to cut road across to make
a shorter haul for the Rutland Fire
Clay company, testify that their land
is worth $3.50 an acre. 1t is well re-
membered that some of those Men
don and Chittenden farmers, parts of
whose land were required by the Chit
tenden Powder Company, spurned
800 and asked something like $3.50
an acre. These instances out of many
similar ones, go to show that farm
lands are highly valued In this state
more highly valued, of course, under
some conditions than others-and
that the abandoned farms" cry is
more of a bugaboo than anything
else. However, we appreciate the fact
that it is In Rutland county that
these valuations prevail Rutland

BIRTHPLACE OF A PARTY.
Galusha A. Grow Tells About the First
Meeting of Republicans.

Hon. Galusha A. Grow, ex-Speaker
OF the House of Representatives, has
added his testimony to the claim Of
the state of Michigan, somewhat
feebly disputed by Maine and other
states, that the Republican party
was born ''upder the Cakes" at Jack
Eson, Mich. In letter to Representa-
tive William Alden Smith, Mr.. Grow
says:
"The law repeating the Missouri
Compromise passed May 30, 1854.
On the 7th of June following a mass
meeting was held in Detroit protest
ing against the outrage. One of the
speakers at that meeting was Zach
Chandler.
THE meeting appointed a COM
mittee to call mass meeting, irres-
pective of party, of all citizens of the
state to meet at Jackson on the 9Th
of July, 1854. There being no hall
large enough for the meeting the peo-
pie adjourned to the 'Oakes' and
there it was resolved to call the new
party the Republican party. Greeley,
in his Tribune, had suggested Demo
cratic Republican.
"At this meeting Kingsley S. Bing-
ham was nominated for Governor
with full ticket for state officers.
Bingham was elected and afterward
elected United States Senator. This
was the first state ticket nominated
under the name of the Republican
party after the repeal of the Missouri
Compromise.
"The meeting at Pittsburg Febru-
airy %, 1856, was the first meeting
OF delegates from the states forming
a national party. And they called a
national convention to meet at Phila-
delphia June II, 1856, to nominate
a candidate for President.
II have given in brief the informa-
tion you request. The mass meeting
at Detroit was seven days after the
act passed. Anyone to be ahead of
that must have been up early. The
meeting under the Cakes at jackson
was thirty-six days after the passage
of the act which they met to de-
nounce There were local mass meet
ings held in various states during
this time, but no state convention
put in the field a ticket Of state Of
ficers to be voted for at an election
by the people of the scate previous to
July 6, 1854 New York Sun.

A Youthful Swindler.

A young man giving his name as
Warner Lawrence and claiming ST..
Johnsbury as his permanent address,
blew into town last Friday with no
money in his pockets, but with a
scheme in his head which he argued
mot wisely would soon make good
the first named discrepancy. He pro-
ceeded at once to business and went
to the dry goods store of Geo. P.
Dronwe 4 Co., where he secured a
good collection of samples of silk,
stating that a lady who was stopping
at Hills Hotel, was going to the hos
pital and wished to purchase a new
outfit for the occasion. The clerk
thought the story a little off color,
but said nothing and the young man
secured the samples, SAYING he would
return them the next day. In accor-
dance with his scheme, however, he
could not do as agreed in this last
particular, and early Saturday morn
ing he began a canvass Of the village.
claiming that he was in the employ
of Brockton, Mass, wholesale house
and Offering goods like the samples,
(Which are the same as Mr.. browne,
your local dealer, retails for 75c per
yard for only % cents per yard" He
did not explain how he could afford
to sell goods at this unheard of price.
but as an evidence of the good faith
of the purchaser, he requested that
ten cents on ayard bepaid down, the
rest to be paid when the goods were
delivered. Strange as it may seem
he secured several orders and induced
each purchaser to pay down dollar
or more in advance. All went we'll
until he called at the home of Mr..
browne, Mrs. browne had been in
formed of the scheme by a customer
who called at the store during the
forenoon, and was waiting for the
young gentleman. Being much
pleased with the samples she purchas-
ed IL yards and paid down $1.20 as
an evidence of good faith, and took
receipt for the same.
States Attorney Bicknell, having
been notified early in the day, arrived
here about noon and the young man
was arrested by Officer Smith at the
Lamoille House shortly after dinner
and taken to the office of Justice Niles.
When arrangements were being made
for trial the prisoner made a bold
dash for liberty, but was holly per-
sued by Andrew and overtaken on the
ice just below the iron bridge. The
prisoner waived examination and
was bound over in the sum of 5000
to appear at county court next June.
He was unable to raise the necessary
amount and was taken to Hyde Park
jail. He acknowledged his guilt, say
ing he wastrying toraise the necessary
sum to get back to st. Johnsbury.
In asking for leniency he stated that
this was his first attempt at fraud, a
fact which no one would question.
The prisoner gave bis age as seven
teen, although he looks older. Those
who had been caught by the game
were paid back the money by Officer
Smith, and may consider themselves
mighty lucky to have gotten off so
cheaply.
The moral is obvious, and it'seems
unnecessary to enlarge upon it, but
the fact remains that so long as the
public is waiting for an opportunity
to patronizs any old peddler that
happens along just so long will this
class of swindlers flourish.

The first action when you have a
cold should be to relieve the lungs.
This is best accomplished by the free
use of Chamberlain's Cough Remedy.
This remedy liquefies the tough mu-
cous and causes its expulsion from
the air cells of the lungs, produces a
free expectoration, and opens the
secretions. A complete cure soon fol-
lows. This remedy will cure severe
cold in less time than any other treat
ment and it leaves the system in a

counteracts any tendency toward
