To Republicans.

The election of delegates to the State
Convention is really where our state Off
GERS are chosen. Yet thousands of farmers
and residents in our villages, will stay at
home from caucus, let half dozen villa
gers who have been . fixed" by some as
pirant, elect delegates who join with others
elected in like manner and nominate that
aspirant When frecmen's meeting comes
these farmers, and " simple villagers .
come up and ratify the nominations thus
made, and deem it of the utmost impOr-
lance not to lose the privilege of saying
who shall be elected to office.
We hope to see every town represented
at the State Convention, and it is Il disgrace
to any town when the people of that town
have decided preferences if they will not
come out to the caucuses and make their
influence felt

Moreover. besides these phenomena. lights

places in the mountain, and, a few nights
before the rumblings, light was seen to
move up Broad river, which shone with
such intensity as to exhibit the trees and
hills for an eighth of a mile on each side
of the river, as if it were daylight. 1t
shone but five minutes, and, disappearing,
left all in darkness. 1t resembled an cleo

4 " Brewers Congress-"

The National Brewers Congress met
last week in Boston and had a royal time
in honor of the stout old king, Gambrinus
They resolved that they were good temper
ance men and told how much they had
done for the true advancement of the
cause They also told how the women and
fanatical prohibitionists were running the
cause for which they were working. They
adopted a long string of f1ashy resolutions
about g liberty" with the usual amount of
platitudes. The position taken by these
frothy apostles of the beer-mug is plainly
stated by Mr. Rueter, who maintained in a
forcible manner the theory that human be-
ngs can't or won't, get along without slim
ulants, and that it is impossible to prevent
the sale of beer, quoting the opinions of
scientific men in support ofhis position. " If
the advocates and sustainers of indiscrim-
mate prohibition in Legislative halls, lee
turc rooms and pulpit, could or would see
their stupendous blunder, worse than a
crime, as others see it, through unpreju-
diced eyes," said Mr.. Rueter, they would
be dismayed at the vast amount Of positive
injury they have been doing to temper
ance, and the extent to which they have,
unwittingly with many, been directly in
strumental in inflicting upon humanity the
untold miseries consequent upon alcoholic
abuse and excess"
M Rueter predicted that, ten years
hence, those who were prominent in their
opposition to beer would be laughed at
Louis Schade of the Washington Sentinel
responded for the press. and offered toast
to the memory of the Pilgrims strict add
herents to King Gambrinus-they having
established the first brewery in America
He quoted from records in Massachusetts
to show that they set a good deal by their
beer.
Mr. Clausen, who at one time during
the proceedings was so seriously indis-
posed ;s to be unable to speak, denounced
the :. blue-laws" of Connecticut and showed
himself very, ignorant that he was quoting
for history the vivid imaginings of Lying
Peters"

A VETO MESsAGE.-Lieut.- Gov. Talbot,
of Mass, last week vetoed the bill abolish
ing the State Constabulary. He thought
the force was needed to further the ends of
justice without any particular regard to the
prohibitory law. AS to its enforcement of
that law, he said it could not be urged that
the constabulary should be abolished be-
cause they enforced that or any law too
much, and that he had never heard any
objection because it did not enforce it
enough. The Senate proceeded to pass the
bill over the veto by vote of 81 to 10, but
the House turned out to be only Ill in
favor of passing the bill over the veto to rs
against it, so the bill was lost and the rum
men will have to try another way.

4 Good Change.

The resignation of Secretary Richardson,
followed by that of his assistant, SAWYER,
and of Solicitor Banfield, will clear the
United States Treasury Department of Off
cials who sign important documents as
matters of routine. Mr.. BristOw, the new
secretary, comes to the department with Il
good reputation. and his entrance upon his
duties showed that he proposed to know
what was going on and why his name was
to be affixed to the various documents pre-
sented him for his signature. He refused
to sign several letters, among them one
sent up by Mr.. Sawyer, until the matters
to which they related were understood by
him.
The next step was to get rid of Mr..
Sawyer, whose retention was urged by
Senator Cameron and Senator Patterson
of South Carolina, and who had boosted
that he was to remain in office. Treasurer
Spinner also sent in his resignation to the
new secretary, but while Mr.. Sawyer's was
accepted, Mr.. Spinner was retained in
Office. 1t would ruin the reputation of the
currency if his fearful sign ature were to be
seen no more upon it. The second assistant,
Mr.. Hartley, who has served under no less
than eighteen secretaries, will also be re-
tanned in Office. Mr.. Hartley went into
office when the treasury department was a
small affair compared with what it now is,
and has by his faithfulness and knowledge
made himself necessity to each incoming
head of the department. He is a genial
old gentleman, and one whose work is al
ways well done.
The elevation of Mr. Richardson to the
bench of the court of claims is not of a
piece with his retirement from the treasury.
A display of incompeteney in the one
place was not what should have secured
him good appointment in another So
great was the dissatisfaction at his ap-
pointment that he obtained only Il bare
majority in the Senate when the vote was
taken on his confirmation. Mr.. Bristow's
confirmation was made unanimously, and
the country will be greatly disappointed if
he does not make an efficient officer.

TIE PRESUMED THREE Term RtLE-
The Rutland Hcruil in Il fair. wcll-written,
diScriminative article on Congressional
matters in the First District, the major
portions of which we copied last week
based its reason for the supposed retire
ment of Mr.. Willard mainly on three
term rule presumed to be in vogue in this
District. 1t stated that the practice in the
case of Meacham. Walton and Woodbridge
had perhaps committed the District to Il
three term rule in electing it Congress
men In its edition of Thursday last-with
a candor and fairness which has charac-
terized that able and influential journal
since it came under the excellent and care
full management of Albert II. futile, Esq,
and had Joel c. Baker us its editor-in-chicf
it corrected its aycrment by stating the
flct that Mr.. Meacham had filled the Office
nearly eight years when death called him
from service. and that h hal already been
nominated for another term. This admis-
sion of a well-known fact tlkes away all
the point there ever was for an exclusion
by reason of three-term rule 1t might
be further stated that Mr. Walton on ac-
count of i'll health, positively declined a
fourth election Mr.. Woodbridge ran for
fourth term. AMI his friends made Il hotlv
contested fight to retain him in Congress I;
but his supposed connection with Jobs and
the belief that he - farmed ont the offices
at his disposal, coupled with the bitter
enmity of the Park purity from Benning-
ton County, prevented Mr.. Woodbridge's
fourth nomination. The District has there
| fore no binding rule or custom precedent
to embarrlss the friends of Mr.. Willard in
claiming for him 4 re nomination ut this
time. Let worth and merit prevail, and
his friends Will be satisfied with the result
Let the people decide who shall represent
them without any persistent attempt to
8 fix things by self-scekers and their
| henchnen, and all will be we'll And it is
pretty evident that this year the people
propose to elect whom they please without
! the intervention of middlemen.

The departure of Rochefort for Europe
from New York on Saturday deprives the
cities of a sensation they had confidently
counted upon, and the lecture bureaus of
the country of comfortable indepen-
dence. Although unable to speak a word
of English, no living lecturer would have
drawn better houses than the escaped
Communist. What this country loses in
the way of excitement, his own will gain,
and we may soon expect to see the effects
of his return in the political circles of

THE CoNvENTIoN.-The Free Press of
this morning gives the following classilica-
ton: "One hundred and fifty-three dele
gates have thus far been elected to the
Republican State Convention, who. to the
best of our information, can be classified
as follows: Taft 60, Peck As, Sprague 20,
Harmon Garfield /, unknown 49,"
This is Il favorable showing for Judge
Peck, for the caucuses so far held have
been largely in places that chose early for
effect. Judge Peck's friends can make
him governor with ease To do it they
must attend the caucuses.
