No. | Democracy.

The nominations of the Old Line Democrats,
yesterday, at Montpelier, were given IN our
paper last evening. For Governor, joins $.
RoplYsoN, Of Bennington, was selected. Mr.
RonlNsoy is an old and highly respectable
" Democrat" and is the gentleman first nomin-
atad by the sold Liners" in 1910, and who
wrote to friend in Burlington in July, 1919,
ate. the "3lst of May Coalition," in the fol-
lowing emphatic manner in reference to TINT
iugglc. The Burlington Daily Sentinel of Ju-
" Il, 1910, says it is "happy to say that Mr..
Ropry oN "oprnly declares his determination
not to support the nominations of the " Free
" Democracy" or to have anything to do there

This is tolerably explicit, and makes Mr.
RoBlN on an appropriate candidate for the No
Democracy. 1t is evident that the Old Liners
meant to nominate somebody that should run
no risk of being acceptable to the poor " Free
Democrats :"
For Lieut.. Governor, the Hon. GrLss HAIR

BURLINGTON FREE PRESS FRIDAY MORNING, MAY 3d. 1851


Very extraordinary doctrines have recently |
been put forth to the public, touching the duty !
and obligation OF obedience 10 law. These
doctrines are new and strangely at variance |
with the principles we have heretofore been
taught to respect and to take as our guide. They
ncucate INSTRUMENTATION and lawless dsobe- |
dence; and those who teach them, whether
they are conscious of it or not, are enemies to
public order and the public peace and welfare.
In TINS country, under our free representative
system OF government obedience to the ord-
nances OF law has hitherto been considered an
unquestonable and imperative duty; and it is
very certain that it must continue to be so con
| sidered if we would maintain our civil insiitu-
tons, and live in the secure enjoyment of our
ossessions-For without law, and law to be
obeyed or dlsubeycd at the option Of any and
every one, is as no law, we have no protection
| Tor IIc, liberty or property.
As citizen. under the General Government,
our rights and duties, our obligations and res
possibilities, are measured and regulated by
the Constitution aud the laws passed in pur.
suance OF it Z; and so far as concerns our mere
civil relations and duties as such citizens, or
any questions arising out of these relations and
duties, there is no higher law.
