from the expression of the people that
the one term principle will prevail in
the State Convention on the Goth, and
therefore will and should prevail in
county officers.
We beg leave to dissent from the prop
osition advanced that the former custom
should prevail in relation to Sheriff and
Judges of Probate. We are entering
upon new order of things, and let the
one term principle prevail throughout
and let new, clean deal be made this
year. There is no earthly reason why
a sheriff should hold more than one
term. In ten counties of the State the
sheriff is elected once in two years.
We have pursued this subject, Mr..
Editor, at much greater length than we
anticipated, but its importance and the
right understanding of the principle is
one worthy the consideration of the
people.
In conclusion allow me to suggest, in
view of the these facts, if the basis of
eur Republican County Convention
ought not to be fixed on the Republican
vote for Governor in each town rather
than the present method. This is sub
ject that should come before our county
convention. EAST SIDE.

Political.

The T1jblt7le, usually very prompt
with the political intelligence that suits
it, has not heard Carl Of Schurz's circular
against Greeley.
The Cooperstown Freemaze's Journal,
being asked whether Greeley has chang
ed or itself, frankly answers: I'VE
think Greeley has changed. That is
right to the point and is full Of truth
Both wings Of the Republican party in
Louisiana have agreed to sustain the
nominees of the Philadelphia Conven-
ton. Gov. Warmoth, who still adheres
to the Cincinnati movements is left out in
the cold.
Gov Hoffman thinks the popular ma
iorities he has received are proof enough
that he has never been engaged in frauds.
Certainly they are; and this ought to
make the judges ashamed of themselves
for prosecuting Tweed, who received
the unparalleled majority of 16, 900 votes
in a ward where only 5000 registered
voters lived -Chjcdgo Post.
The World sticks in opposing Greeley
1t apprehends bolt if he should be
nominated at must be clear, from
this view of the facts, that the only pos
sibility of preventing a boalt against
Mr.. Greeley if he should unfortunately
be nominated at Baltimore, lies in a
strict adherence to the long-established
and time-hOnored two-thirds rule Adj
herence to this rule will very likely de-
feat Mr.. Greeley's nomination but a
departure from it would result in a great
Democratic bolt which would certainly
defeat his election"

The supplemental Treaty.

The latest dispatches from Geneva
bring intelligence that the British Gov
eminent ask an eight months adjourn
nent of the Supplemental Treaty. The
English are resolute for such delay,
hut it will not be conceded although a
disposition is manifest to accept a
shorter term The policy of the Amer
lean Managers in submitting to any delay
appears to be that Englrnd, by accept
ing an adjournment, admits herself to
be within the power of the arbitration
court and cannot refuse to acknowledge
other decisions, for the reason that they
or any one of the single rulings may be
less agreeable to her wishes or interests
The general view of the court is against
50 long postponement.

Rutland County Politics.

Editor. Rutland Herald II read with
great interest the communication of
"Union Republican" in THE HERALD of
Tuesday, on Rutland County Politics. +"
In some of his suggestions l fully con-
cur, but in others entirely dissent. Per-
haps it may be well to consider the
three propositions laid down:
First Establish rule by resolution
in the early part of the convention, that
there shall be two Senators from the
east side of the county and two from the
west side of the county.
On the face of this proposition it looks
fair and equitable, but in fact it is not
so equitable. The Senate of our State
is the only true representative body of
the people on the basis of population. 1t
Is so made up in its formation. The
representation of each county is appor-
toned on the basis of population. Hence
it is that Rutland county, having gained
more in population than any other dis
trict, gained a Senator, making four,
taking one from Washington county.
Thus if the population is the basis of APP
portionment by the State the question
arises. Why should not the political
assignment in the countries be made
upon the same basis and in the same
ratio.
Taking this view of the case, let us
examine this question of population in
the county and see how it stands. We
suppose that "Union Republican" calls
the political division of the East and
West side of the county to be the limits
of the Rutland and Fair Haven Probate
Districts. Such we believe has been the
customary division heretofore. We will
take first the population in 1870 of the

DEATH OF FRENCH SOLDIER. Mar
shall Valiant, soldier under the first
Napoleon, and connected with the mill
tary history of France for more than
fifty years, died recently at the age OF
81 years. He was born in Dion in
1919, entered the army in 1909, and at
once went into active service, taking in
the later campaigns of Napoleon, receiy-
ing the Cross of the Legion of Honor,
and fighting at Ligny and Waterloo.
After the second restoration, Valiant
remained in the army, serving with dis
tinction in Algiers and Belgium, and
receiving rapid promotion. In 1888 he
was made Major and in 1915
became Northumberland. In 1851
he received the baton of Marshal OF
France for services rendered during the
Italian campaign of 1850, and at the
same time was made Grand Marshal of
the Palace, under Louis Napoleon. In
1854 he became Minister of War, re-
tanning the portfolio until 1859, when he
was given command in the army of
the Alps. He did good service during
the war with Austria in Italy, and in
1869 was made military commander of
the Imperial household.
Marshal Valiant was a member of
the Academy of Sciences and enjoyed
considerable reputation as writer upon
military affairs.

RUTLAND PROBATE DISTRICT.
FAIR HAVEN PROBATE DISTRICT.

Thus it will be seen that the Rutland
Probate District has 81, 49, against the
Fair Haven District Is, 429, making
the population of the Rutland District
twice times as large as the Western Dis
trict. Now as it is an established rule
that the Senate is made up on popula-
ton, why should it not govern in the
political assignment. There is no reason,
therefore, that the Eastern District should
not have three senators and the West
Side one. This is the intent of the law;
its purpose and meaning as well as an
equitable and just representation of the
people which the Senate is intended to
be-
| am aware that various propositions
may be suggested, such as that the geo
graphical division indicated by the two
probate districts would be an equal dis
tribution, and, without reflection, this
would be, perhaps, so considered, but
when / look at it in its right light, the
popular representation of the people of
the county, it is wrong, in fact positive
injustice, controverting every principle
of representation on which the formation
of the Senate is based. Then in considera-
ton Of the representation and valuation
of property, which in the Rutland dis
trict is sos, 1882 against $46, 255. IS
in the Fairhaven district. Therefore
both the representation on the basis of
both population and property should
give the Eastern district three Senators.
These are facts and figures which, it is
believed, s'Union Republican must con-
cede are correct in principle and equity
The second proposition is untenable
II the first one is as it is collateral to
that, SO far as a denomination each
year from each side of the county is
concerned. do not believe that propo-
sition can be carried, as it is evident

The One Term Rule.

In the Chittenden County Republican
favoring the ''good old Vermont rule" of
reelection for a second term was voted
down by vote of three to one of those
voting. and by majority of the Con-
yentiOn. Some of the arguments in
favor of the two-term rule were briefly
presented To these the advocates of
one-term had no reply to offer, though
challenged to give some reason for the
faith that was in them. They simply
killed the resolution as soon as they
could get at it, by a motion to dismiss,
and proceeding to the nomination Of
State Senators, with special reference to
which the resolution was offered, the
convention replaced with new men, two
Senators who have served faithfully for
one term.
With curious inconsistency the Con
vention then went on to nominate for
reelection full half of the present
county officers, and also adopted with
absolute unanimity a resolution in favor
of the reelection of the President of the
United States This was as much as to
say that the Republicans of Chittenden
County. as represented in the cOnven-

and States Attorneys, and for the Presi-
dent of the nation; but Of no account
for our State legislators The Conven-
ton in effect said to its nominees for
Senators your Office is of little ac-
count. In these other offices it is i'm
portant for us to retain tried and ca
pable men but your office exists simply

1t is of no consequence what you do, or

serve well or i'll in it, we shall shift you
out of it as soon as we can get around to
YOU. and give YOU the title, soon to be
rendered little worth under such pro-
cess. to somebody else who would like
it"
Probably the majority of the Conven-
ton did not realize that their action was
thus insulting to their nominees for the
Senate; but what else can be made of it !?
Our readers understand that our OPP
position to this one term policy, has in
it not particle of opposition to the new
nominees, personally. They are our
friends. We esteem them highly; and
consider them excellent selections for
the Office, if a change must be made

ening of most important offices. The
result in no respect surprised US. 1t has
been only too apparent, of late, that the
set of public sentiment, among those
who give most attention to political
matters, was in that direction. We
were in fact agreeably surprised to find
even one-third of the Convention either
voting for, or unwilling to vote against
Mr. Talcott's resolution. 1t was sure to
fail, as veteran politician said, ''be-
cause the outs are more numerous than
the ms" But while bowling to the de-
cision, for we believe in majority rule,
we do so with sincere regret that Yer
mont republicans should be found de-
claring that the offices, or that portion
of them to which they apply the one
term rule, exist, not for the public ser
vice, but for the benefit of the office
seekers.

chester Journal, in reference to the pro-
posed West River railroad, learns that
if the entire line to Whitehall is built
parties stand ready to lease it for thirty
years, paying six per cent. on the cap

the proposed road can be assured of this
there can be no doubt of their subscrib-
ing literally for the road will certainly
be of great benefit to the whole section

JAY GOULD. The latest rumor about
Jay Gould is that he has run away. The
explanation of the disappearance of the
fngacious Erie adventurer is the com
inencement OF suit against him by the
company for the alleged misappropria-
lion of its money. The amount claimed
Is six millions, and numerous other suits
as heavy are said to be in reserve. From
such litigation Gould might well be
moved to fly, especially as he does not
