The ST. Adams Messenger copies our remark
that there could not be any serious inte1tlon to
bring out Mr.. Converse, Of Woodstocs, sgain, as
= candidate for Governor, and adds:
eve do not believe there can be any such n-
tentiou, for at the las: State Convention one of
hit mos; intimate friends. in a speech supporting
him, remarked that then was the LAST time
from his age, etc., when he would be available
for the oiIise. We, with hundreds of others, are
very friendly to Mr.. Converse. but we supposed
his friends meant what they said, and we cup
pose 70 now. lfsny among them are such poor

with those upon whom he must rely equally with
themselves for support, it is to him serious
misfortune, and we are inclined to think after

Vote for County Commissioner.
Winooski The Good samaritans.

Editor Free Pres and Tunes:
DEAR srE.-A few weeks sgo ons Of ycur
correspondents from Winooski charged the TsB-
peranee msa Of this village with holding back
aai g7lnbuag v,thou; letting the Trustees of
our village, and men in office know what they
Eantei, when ID reality. the men who held the
reins Of government here did not exercise their
authority for the preservation Of law and order
through apparent sympathy with the liquor
dealers and open violators Of the lsws.
Inst we are doing something the following
petition viii show
Petition to the Trustees or the Vllia7. O. "a
Ho0ski.
WHEREAS. Il is well known that large quanti-
ties Of intoxicating liquors are retsiled in some
Of the st0res snd saloons Of this village We the
undersigned citizens and voters of the village Of
Ninooski would respectfully request you to en-
force the lsEs with regard 10 the sale Of ntoIi-
eating iiQuors,-End TO withhold licences from
sl parties selling intoxicating liquors in their
stores or saloons, and We pledge ourselves to
support you in such action.
This petition Hss presented to the Trustees st
their regular monthly meeting, last Monday
evening, March 4th, signed by over seventy Of
our citizens and voterf, by F C. Kennedy, s H.
Weston, DR.. J. II. Richardson and A. C. Ballard,
part of a committee specially appointed by the
Good Samaritan Temperance Society, to confer
with the Trustees upon the temperance question.
1t is believed by E portion Of that committee
that our Trustees realize the moral obligations
imposed upon them by our village charter, and
that through harmonious action on the part Of
our leading citizen. with the Trustees, large
share of the good which vas intended to be &c
cured under that charter, will now be realized.
A similar petition Was prepared and signed one
year ago, but failed to attract the notice il de-
served, through the depletion Of the individ-
usl who presented it. The control Of the sale Of
intoxicating liquors, is a subject OF vast and
ever-incressing Importance to every individual
in the community for we are all concerned in
the terrible results Of their use, 81 daily mani
tested all around US, and all are in peril from
the dangerous nature Of this " 6re-water."
