VIM. T. Parker, Addison,
Isaac N Cushman, Windham,
E. P. Walton, jr. of Montpelier, offered the fol
lowing resolution, which was adopted:
Resolved That Committee equal to the number |
of Senators in each county here represented be APP
pointed to report nomination for Governor, Lieu
tenant Governor and Treasurer-to be raised and
procured as foll0ws-immediatey upon the adjourn-
ment this morning, the delegates shall meet in
county Conventions, and each convention shall Sc
lect committee equal to the number of senators to
which it entitled, and at l O'clock p. m. the seve
raj persons thus appointed shall unite in General
Committee at the town Hall for the purpose Of maxi
ing and reporting nomination of State offices to the
Convention
On motion of mr.. Fairbanks, all gentlemen who
were Wings, were invited to participate in the pro-
ceedngs of the convention
Mr.. Briggs suggested that Mr. Fairbanks had a
communication from of the Vermont delegates
in Congress upon the present state Of congressional
feeling relative TO the late veto; mr. Fairbanks,
upon request, read the same, as follows:
WASHINGTON, July l,
Dear Sir.-We have Just closed the I'd days de-
bate upon the veto of the bill extending the provis
ions OF the revenue laws until the LIST Of August
The debate will probably continue one or two days
longer. 1t is among the most exciting and inter-
esting that have Witnessed on this floor. You
will see its substance in the Inelligencer and will
not speak ofn more particularly will only say
that is2 l1cN Of ground loft ftrstie Posj-
QeUINO Stduu upon. he reasons urged w MS ines
sage for The exercise of the high and dangerous
power ofthrowing himself in the way of the peoples
will, as expressed by their immediate representa-
tves, have been utterly consumed in the cruicibe of
this debate.
But the loccs are in extaces They have the
president but the acquisition will be a dead weight
upon them 1t is impossible that any party should
succeed with him for its leader. Their joy however,
is not so much because they have got the president
as because he is completely severed from the Wing
tI,n., hnNa &C.
which they suppose will be thus produced. In this
suppostion, however they will find themselves
greatly mistaken. The effect ofmr. Tyler's treach-
cry 10 the great principles which brought him into
power, will but rouse the Wings 10 more jealous eff
forts to maintain them,and will give TO them union
and an energy which their opponents do not dream
Of Such, assure you, will be the effect in Con-
gress, and such, do not doubt will be the effect
throughout the country. l hope the band Of Wings
who triumphed SO gloriously in Vermont in 1910,
will feel its influence and sustain the high reputa
ton they nobly won on that occasion.
There will probably be much apprehension felt
among the people, that the present extraordinary
state Of things here will result in adjournment of
Congress without tariff sufficient either for neces
sary revenue or adequate protection. Such appre-
tensions may be dismissed. Congress will not ad
journ without protective tariff. The Wings in
Congress surrounded with difficulties, but they
will only serve to cement their union, strengthen
their of responsibility to their country and lead
luelu 10 WISE anu UeUeuCldl IeSulS OuCn at least
is my opinion. The lapse of few weeks will de-
termine whether | am mistaken not If could
speak IN the case OF my friends in Vermont would
say, Be not discouraged. We shall have protec-
tive tariff. 1t may not be precisely all that every
interest may desire. Ii is verv difficult, in read
usting an entire tariff, get every thing just as it
should be at once, amid conflicting interests and
opinions, and especially under the emba assments
of a powerful opposition. But | trust things will
come right at last. They will if the Wings every
yhar hall md firm and nitod / aal ~
toyou, sir, that upon :heir tirmness and union and
success depends the great interest of protection &c
American labor. If the interests needing protec-
ton look ori to the loco loco party, they will trus
to a support which will, in the end, assuredly fai
them. | am Respectfully, &c.
