H is evident not only that the Germans nro disgusted over the efforts of tho Hrit.sh to prejudice them In the eyes of America, but also that they are entirely willing to have their dlspleasuro known to the world. Their coolness toward tho I'rince of Wales on his visit to tholr country Is one of tho most emphatic that could bo devised to demonstrate and em phasize their bitterness toward Gnat Britain. The signing by Secretary Hay and the the Danish minister of tho treaty providing for the cession to the United States of thu Danish West Indies, probably marks tho beginning of the end of the ncgotlatlon3 which have been in progress for several j ears intermittently, and tho consumma tion "f a project which had Its Inception d cides, aEO. The islands of St. Thomas, Ht John and St. Croix arc of great strati -git Importance, commanding as they do tho entrance to the waters which will bound the eastern entrance to the isthmian canal.

In order to compensate) for this ho will en deavor to havo ono of tho proposed new battleships named Vermont. In tho House on Tuesday Mr. Toss, chairman of the committee on na-val affairs, reported favorably n resolution e ailing upon tho secretary of tho navy for all papers and documents relative to tho discontinuance of the urn of the receiving ship Vermont, md it was adopted.

Smith's Interview -Central Vermont Will Support McCullousrh. (From tho Northflcld News.) Hon. Charles P. Smith, president of tho Burlington Savings bank, who has a wido actiuaintanco throughout tho Stato and whoso judgment In political matters mu.-t be accepted as tomethlng above, the aver age, makes the following observations af ter last week's political convention known ns Fish and Game meeting at Hurllngton. "This was one of the most representa tive meetings of the kind ever held In tho State, nnd as a result of qulto extendi d conversation wllh careful observers from every county In Vermont I should say that thero Is a strong preponderance of sentiment In favor of tho e.indldacy of Gen, J. O. Mcfullough for the governor ship. While there Is a friendly feeling for Di. . S. Webb, 1 found that many of his friends, for various reasons, were sup porting On, McOullough and I believe there Is no question but that Gen. McCul lough will bo tho next republican nominee for governor." The SI. Albans Messenger in comment ing upon tho statement of Mr. Hays of the Gland Trunk to the effect that the Cen tral Vermont railway would keep Its hands off the gubernatorial canvass In Vermont this year (now modified) says that "one uncertainty In tho canvass Is eliminated for the reason Gen M (.'iillongh's friends have Insisted that they would have tho in llurnee of tho road strongly exerted In his behalf" The News has never heard such u definite claim as this, but If It has been made by some of Gen. McCullnugh s friends they probably had In mind the pto. fesslon of everlasting gratitude which cumo from that source just after the gen.

Tin Vermont Fish and Game League banquet has como and gone, it must have left some mingled recollections of pleasure and disappointment to both tho leading candidates for the gubernatorial nomina tion, Gen. J. G. McCullough and Dr. W. Seward Webb. Whllo tho majority senti ment of thoso who attended the meeting was probably in favor of the Pennington candidate, tho feeling among the suppurt eis of both Dr. Webb and Gen. McCul lough, as expressed, was that If a certain other gentleman Fletcher D. Proctor, of course would become a candidate tho ptospects of their candldato would go a gllmmerlng. OUT FOP- WEBB. The Rutland Herald, P. W. CIcment'H paper, has como out In favor of Dr. Webb for the governorship. AN OUTS1DH STATEMENT. (Vermont cor, Springfield Republican.) Mr. Logan In an authorized statenv nt says that ho personally feels free to sup port the candidate freest from busln- mm Influences antagonistic to the company ho represents, and who Ims no conn, ct. on wllh a rival company that has made ev ery effort to injure the Central Vermont without regard to the convenience of tho traveling public, "and thus endeavored to restrict tho earnings of the employes of the e?cntral Vermont." This last Is very neatly put. As Dr. Webb now owns- BJ per cent of the htoek of the Rutland t all load and as tho rivalry between tho two lines has been very great, it Is made per fectly plain lhat Mr, Logan will oppos' Dr. Webb ns far as possible. Winn Mi. Logan adds to his statement thai he fe ls that many of the offheis and empires for thi.-. i'' .ison will doubilei-i tak ' i i same view of the matter, ho mukes it p I . al-o that the pud will light Dr. Webb .in 1 will forward the Interests of McCull. ugh a-- far as It cm.

If he has money to spend for newspapers, It ar gurd, he bus it to spend for other pur poses, and It Is already seriously proposed lhat the law shall limit the amount that may be spent by candidate or i ou ni t tees. and that a sworn statement of h amounts expi nded shall bo (lied with tho secretary of state. Ceo McCullough has as much money tr spend as Dr. Webb and may be planning to spend It as llbcr.vlly, but nothing of tho sort has como to light. WHAT OUR NEIGHBORS SAY. Wnr on tho Daisies In Connection With Lerislntion. (From tho Montpcller Journal.) It Is of lute rest to Vermont farmers to know that In Hie nelphborlng State of Now York, Assf mblymau Leggttt of Nia gara has Introduced In the New York Leg. Ihlaturo a bill, tho purpose of which Is to Institute war on tho daisy. There Is miicn doubt whether If the bill should become n , law It would serloutly menace tho flower, i for It provides simply that a man who bus daisies on his land may ipply to tho tax assessors whoso business It shall bo thin to destroy said daisies and add tho cost of tho work of destruction to the as S'osmcnt of the property. Just why Mr. Leggelt should mnkit tho tax assessor the executioner of tho offend ing daisy Is not qulto clear. Certitlnly he was veiy considerate In not condemnlnt all tho daisies In New Yoik Stnlo to ilo lKi.emlnlously As It Is he gives each fanner iow?r to pronounce sentenco over the daisies on his pre mines and urdalu tlu.t th" unfoitunitte tux assessor shall per foi ir, the ceeiitlvo art tegulmly dectva.l, In Vermont thu daisy has alwayi its fi lends and its enemies, lit sklents of clly mid town not fitmlllur with rural uiYalrs see only lh' daisy blossoms and when they see the Holds while with them feel Inspired to suy or write something uhnut 1 Iromlng mopdews."

Vermont Character and Idealism In Mu nicipal Politics. ' (From tlio Montpcller Journal.) Vermont's history Is the story of tho evolution of a simple and clean peoplo Mruggllng for Ideals. When Vermont stood off the approaches of Now York her strength was born of her Ideals of freo dom nnd Independence, and the men who led her forth and planned her campaigns vvcte not for from lib til leaders. When Vermont balfled New Hampshire It was by the same strength and wisdom born of her Ideals. When she has sent her r-presentallves to Congress she has had her Ideal men In mind and she succeeds so well that sho ban slmost universally been represented by men approaching tho Ideal as clean politicians. Just for a glance thrown before your mental vision -Morrill what a high mind ed man he was! Who but a Vermont ser vant nnd chosen one of the plain people gave the inspiration of Idealism to the whole Cuban conflict! As long ns history is read the world, Spain included, will ac knowledge tho fact that tho attitude of the United Stntes to Cuba was little If any short of ideal. Now arn't we a bit pessimistic in acknowledging that while nearly Ideal men and acts can bo seen alt about us, Montpcller can have neither? "How have the mighty fallen!" Why nri we the barren city? Wo rue not. That cry that we can't approach the Ideal Is tho cry of self delusion. It does not rlii-r title and Is not true. Now let us use tho microscope. Tho Evening Argus of M-n-:.iy January If1 said: "lTp to dale thero are five men who would like to b mayor -Alderman M. W. Wheolock, J. M. Hout well, Mayor Brown and Aldermen liar lew and Laird." Hero Is a statement that will serve us In the pivsent study. Wlitrh of these live men do you think moro near ly approaches the Ideal man for mayor of Montpcller? This Is the nppoil to bo made to tho average voter: Don't swallow everything these men's friends tell you.Thlnk for yourself. Just think of a few of the com ponent parts of our Ideal. Tlio first Is. ho must prossess an Irreproa' liable charac ter, a manhood that will stand or fall with the right, ns far as he ran rerr lv the right. Such manhood will possess so brletv. No man c.-.n diltik hard and S' rvo the city efficiently. Intoxicants and bus iness do not go together. Ask any up to date railroad corporation. Such a man hood must possess directness. Duplicity ! not statesmanlike manhood. It must be simple and see with a single ee. so that the right way may be clearly per ceived through the fog of political compli cations. It must be bre-Kid so as to esti mate the rights of every class of citizens. It must be true to exactness. These are a few of the elements of the Ideal man. Plnce thc"e men, one by one, voters, over against this Ideal Compare them care fully, nnd ak yourself the eiue-sth'n: For which one of these men, or for what other man. shall 1 vote In order to lc'p the' growth of Montpellcr morally at th fastest siifo iwiec? lla one of them don you u favor? Favoritism Is not to be considered unless your favorer Is tho bp.-t man. Is one of them of your telnved psr tv and the others not? Party Is no argu mi nt In municipal politics Does one of tbem belonsr to your "swt' ' Your set Is of no account compared to the city's we!, fin', and If Iho interests of the two should como Into opposition the set must hi Ignored. Voter, make yourself a civil servlc0 agent. Put thepo nnd all other njmes through a strict examination In your mind. Let them tck the consequences of their credits, and when thev hnve r 11 been nitcd rarefullv by you, you find the man with the hlL'beet average, the man who approaches nearest tho Ideal, and vote foi him. Thrust aslle personalities, little fa voritlms, nettv likes or dislikes. trM'l unconrrenlalltb s anil vote for blm In the primaries. So onlv shall Vermont and Montpellcr approach the Ideal and continue t'lelr history- for the hlsto-v of Vermont politically Is the clearest approach to po litical ideals the country cm produce, H-t u not in this age exchange b'rth jjeht fT pottnge bv aeknow'e.'glng for an instant that we cannot approach the Ideal In our city elections. Senator Proctor's Position on Cuba A RbmlnNccncn of 1000. (From tho Brattleboro Reformer.) Not merely shrewd nnd level-headed, there Is a strong sense of Justice and duty in Kedlield Prcrtor that goes far to uiako Ills greatness. His speech In tho .ii'tiatu the other day rn the Cuton tariff r.'je's tlnn, was a fit supplement to thnt on the IVrto Ulcan bill lest vonr. In which ho demonstnliil so searching!' that the re publican policy to-dny towards our colon ics, almost word for word In Its enact ments and absolutely In Its excuses nnd pretenses, who rfcisely that of KlngGeorg'i tc wards hit American eolcnlos 126 years ago. If modern itpunllrnnlm Is right, then our rcvolutlcnary frrefntheri weie nil wrong. Though Senator Proctor did not say that quite, It wan the clear mean ing (f that great speech. From such r. l asts of principle, the sen ator proceeded to point out the rraotleal bearings of this Cuban question. It Is true that Cuba Is wcrse off Industrially 'in J i.grieulturolly than sho wa under Suan IkIi rule, became wo are governing her for our Interests net her'': while wo maintain tho Dlnglev duller agnlr.st her,, we so tlx her tariff as to ftvor our own Industries; while w o exclude her Irom our coasting trade wo o impel her to admit our ships to lull equality It li her own In her Hoist ing trade; the ict ult Is that the Cuban to. hue co and sugar raisers lutvo lost their old Ppanlsh mirkctr without gaining wvr ones, ai'd these Inclnstt Ics are. prostrate as never before, and In addition to the los and wusto of the long war conditions upon the Island grow- steadily moro pitiable, while by prolonplnt cur rein wo deprive her people of any power to take .care cf tin n solvej md by means of the Plnlt amendment Indicate our purpose to con tinue doing jo. The least we can In Jus tice do while ke-eplr g this urip Is to glvn the CubanH riclpreclty, but that Is Just what oot protective Interests are fighting furiously asaliift. It Is only another clem ciistratlon of the ngc-cld truth that no peoplo, howeiver good, fs ccd enough to rulr another Justly.

Tho National Roaid of Trade today adopted a resolution recommending that the term of the Pre m b nt of the L'n,t"d States shall be six years ami that he shall be Ineligible to re-election. So say a press despatch from Washington. Similar resolutions are frequently ad- opte d by business organizations. We al- ways regret to learn of It. nuslness In terests are important and entitled to a great deal of consideration on the part of the government They get It. A political campaign Is almost always unsettling to business, The change of politics that come with a new politl al administration, or that threatens dur:n.r the campaign, affects bu-l-i ss. condition'. Htislnes men want the term of the ad ministration lengthened for their bonoilt. They ought not to have it. The reason is plainly stated In the con stitution of Vermont, thus: That a frequent recurrence to funda mental prlnclpleV'are absolutely neces sary to pre-serve the blessings of liberty and keep government free We have the frequent recurrence to lundamcnlni principles when parties go before the p ople with their platforms and ask the election of thelx candidal -..

Porhaps that might bo true If the majority party here did pot have so strong a majority, Massac huetts has retained annual elections with good re sults.
