shall We Have a Railroad from
= Montpelier to Rutland

Now that there Is strong probability Of
the early construction of railroad from
White River Junction to Rutland, via
Woodstock, it behooyes the inhabitants
living on the line from Bethel to Rutland
to be m0Uing at once. The distance from
Montpelier to Rutland via Essex Junction
is 107 miles. The distance from Montpelier
to Bethel, by the Central Vermont railroad
is 39 miles, and from Bethel to Rutland by
highway is 81 miles. 1t Is believed by in
telligent and competent men who
know the proposed route well that q
very feasible line, and with feasible
grades, can be found between Bethel
and Rutland with a distance of not over
SO mles-making the whole distance be-
tween Montpelier and Rutland by rail but
20 miles. 1t is plain that If this Inc be
constructed, most of the New York and
Saratoga travel TO central and northeastern
| Vermont and the White Mountains would
patronize this route, as by connecting with
the Montpelier and Wells River road at
Montpelier they would make further
large saving of time and distance Mont
peler would be but six miles farther from
New York city than Burlington, and two
miles nearer than Essex Junction. The
fare from Montpelier to Rutland would be
about 81 30 less than by way of Barling.
ton. BY this route passengers leaving New
York city at 8 a. III. cOnld reach Mont
pelier at 730 p. m, and Wells River ut
p. m.
One of the most experienced and intel
ligeut railroad managers in New England
estimates the cost per mile Of this line be
tween Bethel and Rutland, for broaC
guage track, at $4,000, or S000,000 il
round numbers, for the whole distance
OF course a narrow guage road would cos
less, but in our judgment broad guag
would be preferable in all respects for tn
whole distance.

posed line, including Rutland, aggregat

to the republicans, he was not in the leas
discouraged. lie should be republican

THE BEGINNING OF THE END.

Rev. John s. Glendinning, the notorious
Presbyterian clergyman of Jersey City, has
been acquitted of charges of alleged i'm
moral conduct by the presbytery, of which
he was member. Although upon the
proof presented, it is hard to reconcile
sworn testimony with his innocence, we
are bound, in the face of the verdict and
for the credit of the christian ministry, to
give him the benefit of the doubt, accept
the verdict of his brother clergymen and,
with it, accept him as sans peur ct sans re-
pr0che, at least SO far as this particular
charge is concerned. His principal ac-
cuser is beyond this worlds censurc and
she will be judged by that unerring tribu-
nal which little regards mans station or
profession, and weighs his words with the
same impartalitY as 1t does those OF fall
en- and, it may be, repentant woman. Even
it the prcsbytery of Jersey City received
the testimony of living clergyman, one
of their own number, accused of an alleged
horrible crime, and rejected the dying
statement of his alledged victim, yet their
proceedings on the trial, were open and
above board. The testimony and argu-
ments were made in public there was no
attempt at conccalment witnesses were
examined and cross.ex mined rs in Il court
of justice, and whatever may have been
ones predictions, we presume that the yer.
diet, if We may call it q verdict, will be
generally accepted as just and true de-
duclinn from all available testimony. II
so, and it should be so, the ghost of the
Jersey City scandal is laid.

We clip the following from Vermont
letter in the Springfield Republican, dated
at Newport The correspondent is sup
posed to be DR.. Thomas II. Hoskins:
In the second district alone was there any
departure from programme, and this was
brought about in consequence of the pur-
chase by the leaders of the Denison bolt in
the republican party of the Vermont
Farmer, a paper that under another man
agement had won the confidence of the
grangers, and was believed by them still to
be safe guide. But the fact was that the
anti Poland leaders were still more bitterly
anti-granger, and, indeed, when they went
into convention with the Mead delegates,
they made no secret of their determination
to return 10 POLAND, rather than to support
Col Mead Those delegates IL they had been
true to their constituents shouldequally have
refused to support Denlsou, but they weak
ened, under the peculiar influences brought
to bear upon them, and thus aided one
and by no means the most reputable, fac
ton of the republicans to secure the cleo
ton of their man. No one would more re-
| ioice over the death of Judge Poland than
should, If that defeat had meant reform
in our politics. But, while the people
were all ready to vote for a good and able
candidate, who represented the reform
feeling, they had presented to them simply
another politician of the old sort, whose
only strength was in Polands unpopularity
and the fact that very few people knew
anything against him. The result of this
dirty political intrigue, and of similar per-
tormances in other districts, is that Yer
mont has now an utterly insignificant Gele.

There is little uneasiness" between
some OF the friends of Judge Poland and
Judge Barrett. The Waterman noticed the
efforts making TO set Judge Barrett APP
pointed District Judge, and thought they
were premature if not indicate, as Judge
Smalley, though in poor health, still wears
his own shoes. Nov comes the Wood
stock Post and says that while Judge Bar
rett is proiessedly candidate for the sue
cession, effort WAS begun thus early in his
behalf only because al appeared that both
Judge Poland and Judge Adds had been

started in the matter Immediately, but
found that the ground had been canyassed

cipally for, and By Poland All of the
