3 But it has not been so with Vermont
,tWith unoqualled natuyal RESOURCES and IA
z cilitics this State has Jagged behind The rest
il public improvements. The large towns
grow but little aud the small towns grow
less. We do not much more than hold our
own. There are bnt Few manufactures SPRING
ing up along the lines Of cur fa'''oaas' Ouf
c railroads have not MADE 'ne'r ''''"' So as 10
make it an object lor capital to invest 10 such
p. enterprises. We pay just as muon ior hf''
class freight from Montpelier or H. johns
bury as we did before single non ram was
laid in the STATE. Thus all possibility Of
nd successfully competing win other states OF
pc OF using our magnificent natural resources
ly and developing our industries is denied to us
=, Legislative restrictions and corporate jealous
les have done a balelul work upon the springs
~ Of our prosperity.

these causes are to be removed and that TIE
General Assembly Of 1872 will have ihe
public spirit aud The high honor to iucoTor-
