The Wing Candidate for Representative to
Congress from the Third District.
| We have a great regard for the Clergy and
presume that the Elder is very good sort of a
man, possessing fair intellectual abilities, and
will probably receive respectfully Wing vote.
We do not think his Reverence can be elected,
but we are satisfied he will try. He has, of
course l1id aside his saCCrdota robes, and en-
tered the field political, expecting that the de
mocracy will defeat him if they can st NJ
bans Uem.
ALvAH SABrS and the people of the Third
District are not strangers to each other The
people have long known hun as man of strc-
test honesty, of liberal and generous feelings,
of strong. clear, practical talent, sagaclous and
cool IN his Judgment, and unwaverng III the
political principles, which he has openly, and
on all suitable occasions, expressed. W itbout
the conveniences Of wealth. or the aids of Il
collegiate education, he has mnde use of the
common sources of education, and asSiduuuSlv
applied himself to process OF sclf-lnstructon.
His mind has the comprehensive reach, and the
strong ovcrnasterlng, native strength which
marked the men Of the early days oil Vermont,
when A lien, Warner, Chittcnden, and Baker
were the state leaders lie Is Il genuine Yer

political principles.
Although Clergyman by profession, he has
always been a practical farmer. His form Is
bowed and his hands are hardened with "a lite
OF toll in the field
Such has been the confidence of the people
in his integrity, intelligence, and capab tles
for holding judicial, and Legislative offices, that
they have elected him frequently to those Off
ces during the last twenty-five years. Four
times he has been appointed Judge Of the
County Court, and twice has been elected to
the same office. He has held this Office for SIR
consecutive yearS. In 1913, and again in $50
he was elected Member of the Constitutional
Convention Eight times has Mr.. SABjN been
chosen IA Representative in the Legislature from
the town of Georgia, Win 1876 80, rs,
| 40, AZ, as, 40, 81. Iom times has he been
elected Senator from Franklin County, -
in 1911, '43, IA, 45.
At s;riecn different times has ALvAH SABrN
been before the people ofhis own town or coun-
ty, for their sufrages, and as often has he been
elected. Whenever he has been a candidate
for office, the people have always given him a
majority.
Mr.. SABIH is emphatically . man Of the
People. lie understands the feelings, and in
ercsts of this State, and he will give full and
manly expression to the one, and will devote
himself energetcally, and faithfully to the ad
vuncemcnt OF the other.
lie has not Stunned to have his political opn.
IONS fully, and publicly known. He has done
TIE Wing cause most effective service by his
clear, and torcible appeals to the people when
he has met them in Convention. He Is a yea
lous advocate of Protective Tariff, and has
many times supported his views by his puhhc
speeches lie Is, moreover far repres cnta
tive of the anti-slaverv sentiments of Vermont.
He never commended with the technical "Aboh-
toniSt.n because he thought their plans were
impracticable, and their organization not calcu-
lated to accomplish the end desired. Three
times during the past year, III County and State
Conventions, have we heard him declare HIM
self to be an Antl-Slayery Wing. On the sub
jccts of Tariff and Slavery, he occupies total
" different ground from the nominee of the
Democratic party. Mr.. SABrN represents the
feelings and interest of Vermont, Oh these sub
iccts, Mr.. ADAMS does not.
