' Ifis jonmalUtie ro-workers in Ver
mont jnin in extrmlig congratulations to
the reteran editor of the Burlington
Free Trees, fleorge Grenville Benedict,
who. on yesterday reached lila eightieth
birthday, still hale ami hearty and
vielding a trenchant pen. Starting his
newspaper labors on the Burlington con
temporary in' 1853 Editor Benedict has
een hi journal ateadily proves with
the utate, growing from small begin
nings to the present large proportions,
it being by far the largest journal of
the state and ranking veil with similar
ventures in place much, larger than
Burlington. Editor Benedict ha also
teen the rise of many newspaper ven
ture in the more than half century of
hi connection with the Free Tress. He
ha witnessed the shipwreck of a con
siderable number of them. Hi own pe
riodical ha weathered the vicissitude
of the profession until now It stands
firmly, it niche in Vermont journalism
assured. To thk end' Editor Benedict
has been particularly ; fortunate in
grouping about himself a capable force
of editors and managers and to them he
owes much of the present success of
the Free Press. Ki fellow-journalists
in Vermont certainly wish the veteran
editor many more year of active
work at the head of tho Queen City contemporary.
