whose services IN connection with the
tariff Vermont cannot afford TO lose;
evidently for the purpose Of leading us
20 snppose that Mr.. Woodbridge ser
vices are quite as indispensable as those
Of Mr.. Morrill, II seems 10 as that the
association Of names was peculiarly un-
fortunate. Mr.. Morrill, can tell the
friends Of Mr. Woodbridge that inhu-
encs upon question Of tariff is the re-
suit Of qualifications viii eli their favor
ite does not possess in very eminent
degree. Before any one can be entitled
10 have has name associated with that
Of Mr. Morrill, in matters of tariff, he
must studiously apply himself to the
details Of the subject, give constant
attention to the duties OF the commit
tee.room, and keep his name above the
suspicion Of lobby influence.
There has been great attempt in
Addison County TO make the people
believe that Mr. Woodbride is the farm
ers' candidate. Quite a number OF
communications have appeared in the
papers OF that section, taking sagaci-
Gus view Of the case from the farmers
staLd point, and urging his re-nomina-
ton because he is 80 entirely free from
all connection with railroad rings, aud
so entirely devoted TO the interests of
bis agricultural constituents 1t must
be understood that those anonymous
communications are often nothing but
the Sleeps clothing OF railroad wolf
BY means Of this convenience, some
railroad official or Governmental APP
pointed, whose tender regard for the
farmers is measured by the votes they
poll, appears before the community us
"An Old Farmer. or "a veteran Wool
grower, and ia letter Of the most
pastoral description, Hatters the farm
ers into belief that in nominating Mr..
A or Mr.. b. they are nominating can
didate peculiarly their own. We hope
to sec the day when the want Of sue
cess viii place among the obsolete
stratagems this method Of pulling wool
over the farmers eyes.
We are justified in saying that in
tins case interested parties have used
the farmers name TO advance the inter
ests Of one who is especially the can
didate OF othres. Tho farmers repre-
sent in a good measure the sobriety,
morality and stability of the communi-
~ Their candidate viii Of course be
one who will truly represent such a
constituency. Tho farmers Of this sec.
ton cannot understand how their in
terests are to be promoted by an ineo-
herent speech like that at Montpelier.
They do not see why any utilization With
the Johnson administration is needed
TO advance their interests. They are
nj loss TO know how the reputation OF
their Slate is 10 be SO greatly increased
BY one who has not been ablo TO pre-
serve his own good fame. Certainly,
the farmers Of Addison County must
look upon the matter very much as the
farmers Of bennington County do.
They have tho same views as to what
constitutes the pride of State, and the
same interest in having il properly rep
resented in The National Legislature.
