NEWS AND CITIZEN, THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER "13, 1894!
News' and Citizen;
MORRIS VI ULE and HYDE PARK.
I. H. LEWIS, - EDITOR.
For the great vietorj of last wet-k,
much credit is due the Republican
State Committee.. True, there were
no sky rockets or brass bands, but
there was a quiet active campaign,
every movement on the political
chess-board being skilfully handled
by the committee and its excellent
chairman. There is always a vast
amount of work in the way of plan
ning and directing which requites
good generalship, and from the re
sults obtained it is very evident that
the committee performed every duty
and that no mistake was made in
placing Hon. Olin Merrill at its head.
In this connection also we believe the
work of the press thould not be over
looked. The Republican papers
throughout the State did a most
excellent service for the ticket. From
the day of the convention down to
election day every one of them were
etrong and hearty in their advocacy
of the ticket, the party and its prin
ciples. "While good work is always
expected from the press it is seldom
that its services are complimented,
yet on this occasion we believe its
good work has been heartily appre
ciated. Another son of Vermont who has
located in the West is giving a good
account of himself. The person re
ferred to is Geo. Edmund Foss, a ris
ing young lawyer of Chicago,whohas
just been nominated to represent the
7th district of that city in Congress.
He was born in St. Albans 31 years,
ago, but as soon as he completed his
education, some ten years ago, he lo
cated in Chicago and is recognized as
one of the leading young lawyers of
that city. As the nomination is
equivalent to an election it is all the
more evident that the young attor
ney is held in high regard by the Re
publicans of his district. The Inter
Ocean says of him :
He is another example of the new
blood of the Republican party that
is coming to the front. His standing
among the Green Mountain State's
representatives in Chicago may be
interred from the fact that he is vice
president of the Sons of Vermont So
ciety, and is recognized by that or
ganization as a young man with a
very promising future.
This week the G. A. R. national en
campmeut is holding forth at Titts
burg. While the attendance is not
as large as on previous occasions the
vets are there in goodly numbers.
The occasion is graced by the pres
ence of many of the old war leaders,
and the reunion of the boys in blue,
like its other gatherings, will be a
memorable event. The Grand Army
of 1 he Republic has seen its largest
encampment and the ranks are fast
thinnine: out, yet there is an abund
ance of glory and patriotism left.
Far distant be the day when these
encampments shall end.
The election last week was the first
popular verdict on "perfidy and dis
honor," Hnd not only rolled up a
magnify ent majority for the gallant
one-amied veterans at the head of
ticket, but emphatically shows how
Vermont stands on the tariff ques
tion. With wool and lumber on the
free list, the duties on Canadian farm
products greatly reduced and the
bounty on maple sugar abolished,
the farmers of Vermont were dealt a
hpavy blow, and in return they have
severely pummelled the Democratic
administration.
The Democratic sugar planters of
Louisiana repudiate the action, of
Congress in wiping out the"sugar
bounty and declare they will join
forces with the Republicans. If this
is carried out Beveral Congressional
districts now represented by Demo
crats will elect Republicans. Great
interest is taken in the movement
and the leading Democrats fear they
will not be able to stop the revolu
tion. Maine had its election Monday and
followed the good example set it by
Vermont. The State ticket is elected
by the largest majority on record
about 35,000 and all four of the
Congressmen, including Tom Reed,
by majorities ranging from 8,000 to
to 10,000. Cleveland times, :free
tttitfo and sugar trtste did the busi
ness. The several States that hold
elections in November will continue
the good work.
The Legisla ture should make pro
vision for the payment of ballot
clerks. They are required to work as
hard as anybody about the polls,
and ought to receive as mscb pay at
hxistr as th town clerk. -

For the first time in its history, the
women of. Colorado will have the
privilege of voting tor Governor this
fall. The influence tliey will exert
upon politics will be wiitclied with in
terest by outsiders.
Gov.-elcct Woodbury will spend
considerable time in visiting the va
rious State institutions previous to
his inauguration. The Governor in
tends to know what he is talking
about when he delivers his inaugural
address.
Stowe cast the largest vote of uny
town in the State for the Populist
candidate for Governor ,"4 exceed
ing even Burlington and Rutland.
The former cast 53 and the latter 45
votes. We do not believe either of
these places will contend with Stowe
for the distinction she has thus at
tained. .
Gov.-elect Woodbury in a recent
letter concerning the election, says:
"Lamoille county did very hand
somely, for which I am gratified. I
believe that our large majority will
be very helpful to our brother Re
publicans in every State. It is this,
rather than any personal gratifica
tion, that gives me satisfaction."
In our list of Representatives pub
lished last week we made a mistake
regarding the member elected from
Elmore. W. W. Delano was the suc
cessful man, and a most woitby Rep
resentative in him will Elmore have.
H. II. Churchill whose name we pub
lished is not elected a Representative,
but is elected as an associate judge.
If there is anybody who should feel
esppcially grateful for the handsome
vote given him at the last election, it
is Mr. E. C. White, Lamoille county's
efficient Judge of Trobate. The fact
that he was endorsed by both parties
is sufficient evidence that he performs
his duties well and satisfactorily. He
received 2,308 votes not one in op
position.

The publication in the Argus for
several weeks, at first in a garbled
condition and then afterwards cor
rectly, of an extract from Col. Wood
bury's address at the State conven
tion, proved a veritable boomerang.
It did the business in correct thape.
The Republicans of Vermont owe the
Arerus a vote of thanks for the aid it
thereby gave the party in the late
campaign.
The chief reason that labor in the
United States has achieved the high
position which it holds has been the
protection of Ameiican industry
against pcuper labor competition.
Republican protection has built up
American industrial independence
and enabled American working men
in every walk of life to earn higher
wages than the workingmen of any
other country.
The result of the election simply
shows that the Republicans turned
out in force, in ref-ponse to the fren
zied appeals ma'ie by their party
leaders, while the Democrats in many
instances stayed at home. Argus.
And pray, why did the Democrats
stay at home? Was it not because
of disgust with the manner in which
their party has managed the affairs
of the nation since it assumed con

, THE ELECTION IN LAMOILLE
COUNTr.
THE STATE VOTE.
Corrected returns from all towns of
Lamoille county give IT. A. Wood
bury a majority of 1,302, an increase
of 324 over the mojorityot twoyears
ago. The increase iu total Republican
vote over two years ixzo is 107, while
the decrease in total Democratic vote
is 15)1. The Prohibition vote is al
most entirely wijed out there being
but six votes cast while two years
ago the vot was 58. The rnnin
cause of this decrease iH probably ow
ing to the fact that the Prohibition
ticket was not placed on the official
ballot, lift a use of the failure to file
nominations with the Secretary of
State. The Populiets had no St ite
ticket two years ago, but this year
they poll 100 votes in this county.
For Representative in Congress
Judge Powers has a majority of
1,445 327 increase over two years
ago. The increase in total vote cast
for him is 153, while the decrease of
the opposition is 137. The Judge
may well feel proud of the magnifi
cent support given him by his county.
Out of a total vote of 2,305 he re
ceived all but 430. It shows that he
is held in high regard by his home
people. Taken altogether Lamoille
county has cast a magnificent vote
and coming as it does largely fr6m
the farming people, it cannot be
taken otherwise than as a rebuke to
the Democratic administration. '
THE COUNTY VOTE.
The county vote shows up just as
finely as the State vote. Capt. Ken
field's majority for Senator is 1,402,
one of the largest we believe any per
son ever received for that office.
Sheriff Stevens, who received a ma
jority of 99G two years ago, this
year has 1,411 an increase of over
400. Nobody but a very popular
and efficient person could receive
such a vote. And so we might'go
through the entire ticket and give
comparisons, but as space forbids
and as we give the entire vote in tab
ulated form elsewhere, it is sufficient
for us to say, All honor to the Re
publicans of Spunky Lamoille for the
handsome vote given your ticket
from head to foot.

Bcoton Herald.
TheTopuliwt party up in Vermont
hion't appear to have crown much.
The sound common sense of Yankee
do in is too much for it.
Troy, N. Y., Times.
Vermont has outdone the most
suiiguine hojM s jf the party outside
of the State, and her voice in Septem
Iwr is a prophecy of what is goiujr to
happen in November, wherever a free
ballot and a lair count aj-e permitted.
flU-a, X. Y., Herald.
The emphasis with w hich Vermont
has recorded its vote is no encour
aeuieui to Republicans all over the
country to continue the fight for pro
tection with renewed vigor. It shows
that the farmer, the manufacturer,
and the wage earner, irrespective of
pirty, are determined this fall to
nave another change.
Albany Journal.
Vermont has 6pe)ken; and its de
cision is similar to that ef New York,
New Jersey and Pennsylvania and
other States of the northeast in
which the people have had an opper
tunity to manifest their feeling siu.re
the beginning of the tariff struggle
at Washington last December.
New York Press.
Vermont has spoken, and her ver
dict is worthy of her fame as a gal
lant State, ever in the forefront of
the Republican ranks and never fal
tering in the Republican cause. Ver
mont has triven the Cleveland-British
cause its Ticonderoga.and New York
will follow with another Saratoga.
All hail to the State of Ethan Allen
and the Ureen Mountain Boys 1
Burlington Daily News.
The extraordinary uprising in Ver
mont on Tuesday means that the
country is tired of Democratic rule
and Democratic methods. If the
Vermont vote can be taken as an in
dex the next Congress will be Repub
lican and the strange wave which
swept over the country two years
ago will have spent itself. Itmust
not be expected, however, that all
the States will show the satne'pro
portionate change as Vermont. This
State has always been strongly for
protection and now Bhe has waked
up to rebuke the party office trade.
Springfield Republican.
Popular dissatisfaction with the
delays and bickerings of the Demo
cratic majority at Washington in
acting upon vital public questions
has unquestionably been intense all
over the country; and it must have
been particularly strong in Vermont,
where the high tariff policy has the
deepest root in popular support, and
the wool tariff' policy in particular
has been most strongly supported.
The result t-hows, nevertheless, that
the Democrats must do wonders in
the way of justifying popular confi
dence in that party if they are to
escape an overwhelming defeat in the
Congressional elections of November.
Brattlehoro Tlia-nix.
Whenever any national issue has
been at stake Vermont has never
failed to respond by lending the way
in the fall elections with a majority
which furnished an index of the sen
timent of northern voters. This year
is no exception. Not since 1872 has
the vote of the State had greater
significance. There is no need to dis
cuss the reasons which have prompt
ed the people of the State to giy a
majority of 28,000 in round nutn
beisto the Republican ticket. The
size of the Republican voteas some
thing to be expected. The ouly sur
prise of the election is the almost uni
versal indiffereuce shown by the Ver
mont Democrats, who have always
heretofore taken their medicine, no
matter how drastic. But even Ver
mont Democracy cannot counte
nance or endorse the result of two
years of Democratic misrule. '
Boston Journal.
Vermont is a rturdy Republican
commonwealth, but the nze of its
Republican plurality is variable, and
as its State election comes two
months in advance of those of most
of the other States, the result has al
ways been curiously watched for by
persons who are eager to observe the
tendency of the political barometer.
Vermont is a State of well-informed
and thoughtful men, who Are proba
bly far more familiar with national
affairs than the bulk of our urban
population. They read, study and
decide for themselves. It was their
privilege to render the first verdict
upon the Thimblerig tariff .act. this
year, and no community in the land
could be found better qualified to
perform that duty. Vermont's hand
some Republican plurality, exceeding
the average figure of "off years," is
an emphatic warning of the coming
of the November avalanche.
New York Sun.
The Democratic candidate for Gov
ernor was George Washington Smith
of Smithfield, on the Smith turnpike.
Appeal was made, unavailingly, as
the early returns from the seat of
strifrt show, to the family spirit of
the Smiths. This was, so to speak,
the trump Democratic card in Ver
mont in a year when, as everybody
understands, collateral, unusual and
unforeseen side issues are the thing
to break up nud overpower the Re
publicans. Here was a skillfully
chosen side issue, quite apart from
the tariff, the income tax, foreign re
lations or the sugar trust the 'mui
of Smith. But it didn't work. The
Republican Smiths of Vermont held
aloof from their family namesake,
even with the patriotic prefix of
George Washington. They did not
vote for him despite the determina
tion of the Smith ' family of the Unit
ed States, in convention not very
long ago, to hotd together; and so
it happens that, Tike the light which
failed, Candidate Smith, with the
hol iViiHK-racy of Vermont back
of him, was snuffed out.
New York Tribune.
The election in Vermont is always
pronounced by Democratic journals
"the UMial thing," but it is the fart
that the rise and fall of the Republi
can majorities in that State have
corresponded closely w ith the force of
public opinion in other Northern
States. Full Republican majorities
there have always indicated a state
of feeling which has resulted in Re
publican vietories in most of the
doubtful States and districts of the
North, while Republican apathy or
general discontent with the Republi
can policy has been manifested in
Vermont with equal clearness. The
election this year indicated no such
feeling. The early despatches show
that the majority is not far from
JJ0, 000, which isextraordinarily large
and for the last 20 years unprece
dented, although in 1872 and 1808
somewhat larger majorities were
given w ith the w ar issue predominant.
Since parties have taken their pres
ent form the Republican strength has
never been relatively greater in the
Green Mountain State than it seems
to be this year. In this there is noth
ing surprising. The people of Ver
mont have king been strongly de
voted to the protection of American
industries, and their close acquaint
ance with Canadian wages and con
ditions of labor and living have pre
pared them intelligently to resent a
change of policy which the Canadians
hail with elelight.
A Johnson Boy's Success.
Gov. Sheldon of South Dakota is
a native of Johnson, this county,
lie began life a poor boy and by per
severance and pluck has been very
successful. He is the present Governor
and is a candidate for renomination.
He tells the ttory of his life as fol
lows :
"I was born in the village of John
son, Lamoille county, Vt., on Septem
ber 12, 1850. My father died when I
was four years old, leaving my moth
er and four little children, one older
and two younger than myself. Loss
of property immediately after his
death left us very poor. I lived at
home until I was eight years old, at
tending school as a child in a New
England village would. Then I went
to live with a farmer; lived with him
eight years, attending school two
months, sometimes three, in winter.
When I was 14 years old I wanted to
attend one term at the academy in
the village where I was born, and
asked permission of the farmer with
whom I lived. He told me 'no,' and
Faid to me, 'you are a better scholar
now than I am. I am good enough
for all practical purposes. If .-ou will
stay with me until you are 21 years
old I will give you $100 and a tuit of
clothes. If you go away you will
never be worth $100 in your life.'
"I went away and went to work in
what was known as aunionstore,one
of the co operative stores at that
time in New England. Worked a
year for my board, two months'
schooling in the winter, and $20. My
mother made my clothes. I suppose
I bought some part of the material.
I bought what 1 wore on my feet and
on my head and outof the $20 saved
exactly $12, which I gave to my
mother. After that 1 worked on
fams in summer, sawed wood for the
people in the village in the spring of
the ytar, attended school two and
one-half terniH at the academy, and
when I was 17 years old taught my
first school in the winter for $1G per
mouth and boarded aiouud through
the district so many days for each
scholar. 1 then went to work for a
merchant in the village where I was
born for three years, then went into
the employ of a merchant in a neigh
boring vijlage. From his store en
listed; was mustered into the service
as a private in E company, seventh
Vermont volunteer infantry, and was
mustered out as Captain of I com
pany, after neaily four and one-half
years' service.
' "Alter the war I lived for eleven
years in southern Illinois: married
the daughter of the Hon. George W.
Waters. Two children were born to
us, we were prosperous and happy,
but eighteen months stripped me of
my wile, both children, and every
cent of money I was worth. I was
married asat'n in 1875 to my present
wife. In 1877 we moved to Paducah,
Ky., and lived there three years.
Came to this State in the winter of
1881. Served in the council of, the
Territory in the winter of 1886 and
1887. Attended my first State con
vention at Mitchell in 1800, of which
convention I was permanent chair
man. Canvassed the State that fall
in the interest of Republicanism;
again the next fall for Mr. Jolley.who
was candidate for Congress to fill the
term of Hon. John R. Gamble, de
ceased. Was nominated for Govern
or at Mndisou in 1892, and am now
a candidate for renomination."

A Plea for District Representation.
Bihtor News ami Citizen:
Dear Sin: I write to KueHt bnt nnefTort
lie made at the cominn oeKHion of legislature
to have the bams of representation changed
from towns to districta. That would, in a
meanire, do away with the idiotic equabble
enacted in some towns at every election of
reireeiitaive. The principle Keems to pre
vail that without regard to n'tnecs, if only
some one will lend himself so that a few can
beat someone ele, that is all that is required.
A few will have their way by hook or crook.
Sometimes the bolting candidate gets left
after all, and then he is politically dead, kill
ed by so-called friends who have no fur
ther use for him. Serves him right, we
say. Sometimes the Democratic candidate
gets elected by want, of union in the Kepubli
can ranks. Serves them right again. Such
management is demoralizing to our youth,
and the intelligence of our Legislature is de
terioating. The Inst one wag a laughing
stock. What will the next be? Themunage
ment at the election reminds one of nothing
so much as the late Congress, who legislate
like a lot of boys, what one wanted the other
wouldn't Lave on any condition, and two or
three run every thing to suit themselves.
Let something be done to preserve the Ver
mont Legislature that it may be kept on a
par with other states. Oiiskrver.

which the premiums paid amounted to
$1779 00
