The County Nominations.

We give the report of the County
upon the ticket are of men who are
well and favorably known through the
county. Mr., Alexis T. Smith of New
Haven, and Hon. T.. Brookins, of Shore
ham, the candidates for Senators, are
both men Of ability and character, and
II elected as we have no doubt they
will be, they will do credit to them
selves and their constituents. The
candidates placed in nomination for the
office of County Judges, John E. Rob
erts, Esq. and Mr.. a. d. Hayward ARE
men of good sound sense and principle,
and men Of experience in the particu-
lar line of the duties of their office,
The other names remain the same az
two years ago.
With regard TO States Attorney as no
candidate was put in nomination by
the convention this connection is not
the place to discuss it andwe defer such
remarks we may have to make upon
the subject until some other time 1t
is sufficient TO say that the sympathies
OF the paper will be upon the side OF
temperance, in this case as in all 9th
ers. We shall endeavor, as heretofore
to place the matter squarely before the
people and if we succeed in making
the issue fairly understood, we have no
doubt of the triumphant reelection OF
Col, j, II. Lucia as States Attorney for
the County Of Addison.

CORRESPONDENCE.

notice that the Burlington free
Press Of last Thursday, in giving the ac-
count Of the Addison County Convention
of last wcck, stated that the chairman OF
the Convention decided that tho nomi.
nation of Mr.. Geo. r. Chapman (the
anti.tempcranco candidate for States At.
torncy), was not confirmed by the Cou.
vcntiou. which the official, published rec.
ords OF the Convention will show to be
incorrect. [ also notice that the Rutland
Herald copies the report, with an add.
ton that Mr.. Chapman will probably he
elected. Both papers state that the
friends Of Mr.. Chapman claim he was as
fairly nominated as any Of the other
candidates. As to whether Mr.. Chap.
man or Mr.. Lucia will he elected, can be
better determined next September than
now. We shall be slow to believe that
good old Addison county will array her.

We hear CT rumors Of tho same tactics
being taken to secure the vote of the
town for Mr.. Chapman, but we have no
absolute proof of the facts at present,
therefore we will not state them. These
twelve votes transferred illegally from
Mr. Lucia to Mr.. Chapman, will make
difference of twenty-four, amply enough
to do away with the reported majority of

The Working Mems Relations.

No question of the present time in
wolves more important principles than
the labor question, which is coming up
for consideration, whether we desire 1t
or not, and through the conflicts of
capital and labor, and through the
JealOusies of working men toward each
other. These jealousics and consequent
troubles arise from an unwillingness
to share the monopolies of remunera-
tive labor with others--in other words
-selfishness. The late combinations
Of the unions against the Italian labor
ers lately come over to find employ
ment in this country, suggest some
thoughts upon this subject. We believe
in combination, amoug capitalists and
laborers, but these organizations have
no more right to take improper action
to prevent the successful industry of
fellow laborers and capitalists, than
individuals would have in similar cir
cumstances
AS the material conquest of the world
is vastly aided by the firm and the cor
poration, so docs the working-men's
union give the laboring classes legit-
mate and real vantage ground in labor
contracts. This vantage ground has
enabled the working classes to lay
claim TO much fairer portion of the
profits Of production, in this country
and in England, but especially in the
latter. The Republican well says;
No one who will study the condition
of the laboring classes in England for the
past so years can doubt this But the

was filed with people, the session room
below being deserted save by few per.
sons. The number IN the upper rooms is
variously estimated at from $50 to 500,
mostly all grown persons.
