Orleans County monitor. [volume] (Barton, Vt.) 1872-1953, 1872-10-21

Of the Greeley stamp. And then the
idea of pensioning treason and indemni-
flying traitors for property confscated
while in rebellion. Should all this come
to pass, | wonder if we should hear any
less of the burden of taxation or the hue
and cry of governmental expenditures.
A venerable anti-war Democrat in our
midst tells us with smile of increduli-
ty, ga woman never wrote that protest. /
Crush a mothers heart with
sense of such gross injustice to the dead,
as we'll as the living, as the nomination
of such man as the coalition candidate
and see if she cannot write. An audible
wall of anguish from the world of woe
could hardly fall upon the ear with more
startling emphasis than this keynote to
the rebel war-cry, Greeley and Brown.
While reading that Mothers Protest,
felt for the first time in my life that l
could go with unfaltering step to the
ballot box; yes, could even hold up to
the gaze of the universe the ballot en-
craven with the words, Grant AMI Will
son, humanity and equal rights.

Friday night.
There will be lecture on Spiritual
ism next Sunday afternoon at the M. E.
church in this place by j. w. Malcolm.
Eugene Curtis, the teacher of the dis
trict school at the Landing has been i'll
during the past week and unable to at
tend to his duties, therefore no school.
J. Barney Robinson, our next door
neighbor, counselor, advisor, and attor-

the road, just opposite, to what has here
tofore been the harness shop of Uncle
Glib Ellis. Good by, Barney-take care
of yourself.
