li. i . Drenuaii ot Woodstock, boing tho
only caudidates for tho county's threo
Sonators in tho fleld. It was assuuied
that they accopt tho platform adopted

in that case, tlio delegation will bo a

Lettcr to C. N. Phllllps.
Dear Sir: How much eold do you sell
in the course of a year? and how much
pewter? how many 18 karat watches?
how many hlled casesV
No matter. A man may wear a goid-
looking watch, or gold : it's nobody's
business. The money he didn't pay you
he may have in the bank. Some women
may wear pewter; and paste may be as
good as a dia.nond.
JNot so witn paint. 1'our paint lets
property go to waste. Lead and oil is
good for three years ; but that is the end
of its wholeness.
Zinc is as good for six years as lead for
three.
Lead and oil wil! keep out water three
years ; Devoe leaa ana zinc six years
sixteen m lavorable conaitions.
Yonrs truly,

Hollister Jackson, one of the Barre
Ctement delegates to the Kcpublican
State Conventton.wasin the city Monday,
and when guyed about bolting the con
vention declared that he did not consider
himself a bolter. When Jonos led the
othcrs from the convention hall he kept
his seat, at first bolieving the movement a
mistake, as he believed the non-recog-nitlon
of Peck and Jones, Clement dele
gates, was rather the result of the incom
petency of Chairman Raymond than any
scheme of the other sfde to gag the
Clement faction. When he did finally
leave the hall, Mr. Jackson avowcd it w?s
with the purpose of inducing Jones and
his followers to return, which he was un
able to aocomplish. Regarding the re
consideratlou of his election to the State
committee,' if Mr. Plumley desired to
noiu tne onice ne couitl, but bclore the
bolt he defeated I'timley before the
County delegates by a votc of 32 to 30.
