So Mayor Bigelow of Burlington won't
have a ruction inside of his party when
he comes before the people at the poll
next month, th? withdrawal of TV. B.
McKillip having left the field for the
mayoralty to himself and to Jame E.
Burke. That ought to have a lightening
effect on the load which Bigelow has got
to carry, but even then there is nothing
certain that the perpetual candidate
won't step in and capture the prize.
Whatever the. reasons for his act, the
withdrawal of Mr. McKillip (tins early
in the campaign was a very nice thing to
do, event as the Burlington Free Pies
no ardently stated it.
About the 23d of last January, the
seiHoiographs throughout the world re
corded a great earioquake, but couldn't
locate it. Day passed and the time
lengthened into weeks; and now comes
tlx1 confirmation of the seismograph
record in the story of the terrible devas
tatiou by nature's upheaval in the. in
terior of Asiatic countries. The remark
able accuracy of the seismograph needs
now to be supplemented with the capa
bility to locate the earthquake, and tlien
we shall have our knowledge of earth
quakas rather complete except! per
haps the undisputed knowledge of thei
cane, although the majority of scientists
have come to an understanding on the
matter.

Secession to Cleveland is almost

Young, the "grand old man" of base ball
Judging by the amount of street talk
and newspaper eommeiit, nothing , has
recently struck Boston so heavy a blow
as this transfer to the Cleveland club,
The staid newspapers and the leaders in
public lhe are cont ributing their protest;
some mild, other vigorous, and a consid
erable number insistent that a great in
justice has been done to themselves as
well as to the ball player who has been
turned loose whan hia days of usefulness
seemed to be mi the wane. The wave of
protest will subside eventually, and Bos
ton will resume her normal composure;
but ' it will be years before base ball
means just the same to the people who
have been seeing this veteran twirl the
ball year after year, and, by his actions,
assist in making the game of hase ball
worthy of the interest ot the best Amert
can people. Young has made himself
rich by his good right arm, and he does
not need to play base ball; but perhaps
he may have some objections to being
kicked out the back door as unceremoni
ously as his ownerg treated him. ' '
GREGARIOUS VERMOXTERS.
Perhaps the people of no state in the
Union retain their home tics go strongly
as do those Vcrmonters who journey into
distant sections because of various at
tractions. Certainly the people of no
state have so many old home associa
tions, relative to population, as have
Vermont?rs. About the first thing that
Vermonters do when they get settled
in their new locations is to look about
them for Mlow-Vermonters with whom
to talk over old times back in the Green
Mountain stats, end this desire for get
ting together leads naturally toward the
formation of Vermont associations, the
number of which is yearly multiplying.
Ine latest Vermont association to come
to our attention is the "Vermont Asso
ciation of Alameda County, California,"
and the secretary writes that tlie club

former residents of Vermont who are

in T i:ont is directed toward en
gaging any of their relatives now in

! CURRENT COMMENT
The Beginning of the End.
Rev. Dr. Ozora 8. Davis, the disting
uished Vermonter, who hts just fle
et ptd the presidency of Chicago Theo
logical Seminary, began his career as
rt telegraph messenger boy at White
River .lumtion, and is protarJy the
only telegraph operator in ' the coun
try, who .has rimjn to the position of
president ot a theological school. . Jle
tells a good story on himself of visit'
ing a newspaper office in the Connecti
cut 'alley to see a college classmate
who was the sporting editor of the. pa
per. The latter introduced Dr. Davis
to tlie versatile telegraph operator and
thev had a most friendlv visit, which
ended by the telegraph operator being
invited by the sporting editor to come.
i.s this to be wondered at. A ytem
under which a bank president i alleg
ed to have furnished bribe money to
coiimilineii in ordijr that hi Inink
might be named a one of the deposit
ories of the c"ity funds, and under
which the aforesaid brile money is
said to have Wo accepted with avid
ity, may le rrHsonably suspected of
more de-iperate sclieme'o, even to thi;
extent-of tampering with a jury. The
serious cotii'(jiience, in the 4clut of
detection, of an attempt at. jury-fix-ing
appears to have been disregarded
by the alleged gratters in tho extrem
ity to which they have Wn driven,
Tlie court, too. in full knowledge of it

A Sincere Tribute.
The -grief felt over the death of a
longtime companion is told in the fol
lowing tribute to the late Charles C.
Mams-dell, foreman of The Times, by
C. 15. Putnam, a newspaper man, who
had served twijnty years side by side
with him :
"No grief can be more poignant than
that of one who has leen an intimate
associate in thie nerve-racking grind of
newspaper life for twenty or more
vears, when be bhrns of the death of
his mate. That grief is felt by the
writer as be reads in the Journal and
the Barre Times trilmtes to the mem
ory of Charles C Kamdc)l, ho died
lat Sunday. The event is too recent
and feelings are too much wroucht up
to write as he erm; like to write of
his old friend. Mr. r.nmdeli was all,
and more tlmn all. that has been said
of him. This is all the writer can now
sy, but hopes Inter to pay a tribute
to his lamented fellow- ork."
