A Grand Temperance Demonstration

A large temperance mass meeting and

clubs in that section Is to be held at Bel
lows Falls Friday, August A. more directly
under the auspices of the Bellows Falls,
Keene and Brattleboro clubs, each of whom
are to invite every club in their vicinity to
join, and clubs to the number of 5000 or
1000 members have already decided to par

held in Concord recently, and bids fair to
equal or exceed 1t in magnitude. At a
meeting Friday evening of the Bellows
Falls club, which now numbers about 800
members, final arrangements upon their
part were perfected, and meeting of COM
mttees from the three leading clubs named
called to meet at Bellows Falls Tuesday,

THE GLOBE NATIONAL FLAG.

A Irrational 1ag," bearing the names of
d" Hayes and Wheeler" was suspended
over Merchants row, from TIE GLOBE
office to the depot, Saturday. This is, we
believe, the only irrational flag" in Rut-
land, il not in Vermont, and is so from the
fact that there are but Mirty-seren stars in
the field. From the inquiries which, as we
understand, were made Saturday, we are
led to believe that there is a general mis-
understanding, in Rutland at least, as to
what constitutes Irrational flag" BY the
laws of the United States, the national flag
consists of thirteen stripes, alternate red
and white, with one star for each state in
the Union on blue field in the upper right
hand corner of the flag. There being only
thirty-seven states now 10 the Union, OF
course any greater or less number OF stars
than thirty-seven takes away the national
character of the flag.
The miapprehension in reference to the
stars grows out of popular delusion that
Colorado is already a state in the Union.
Such, however, is not the case. BY an acI
OF congress, approved March 3, 1875, the
Inhabitants of the territory of Colorado
were authorized to form state govern
ment, and TO that end were authorized to
elect delegates to convention 10 frame
constitution, which, when framed, should
be submitted to the people for acceptance
or rejection. 1t was, also, provided tina,
the constitution, so framed, should be 're.
publican in FORM" should make no dis
tinction IN civil or political rights Oh &C
count of race, color, etc.; should not be
repugnant to the constitution of the United
States or to the declaration of independ-
ence; and should contain CERTAIN irrevoca-
BILE guarantees.
A convention was accordingly held,
constitution framed and accepted by the
people, as we are Informed by telegraph,
at an election held July /, 1875. The act
authorizing the admission of Colorado,

But if there Is parallel between the adj
ministrations of General Grant and General
jackson, between "Grantism' and "Jack-
"sonianism," there is contrast between
the course of republicans and democrats in
dealing with the circumstances. The de-
mocracy nominated and elected Martin
Van Buren, president, because he was Cen
eral Jackson's 'favorite," and would per-
petuate "Jacksonianism." And he did, by
retaining the secretary of state who was a
defsulter when appointed; by retaining
Swartwout, who, soon after, proved to be
a defaulter to the amount of over one and
a quarter millions of dollars and by con-
tinuing In office horde of other equally
dishonest and disreputable officials, and re-
fusing to remove them when their guilt
was made evident.
The republicans, however, have refused
to perpetuate "Grantism." They refused
to consider Grant, although IN asprant
therefor, in connection with reelection.
They refused to nominate General Grants
'favorlte"; and the fact that Roscoe Conk-
ling was such ''favoritc" rendered it i'm
possible for him to obtain the unanimous
vote of single state in the republican ma
tional nominating convention, and only Oh
tanned for him few scattering votes in
ten states GU! of forty-seven states and ter
ritores represented. On the other hand,
they nominated, as their candidate for
president, Rutherford b. Hayes who is as
| disconnected with all that savors of "Grant.
"ism,' as Martin Van Buren, was the en-
bodlment of the worst features of Jack
"sonianism."

however, further provides that the votes
shall be canva.sed by the acting governor,
the chef justice, and the United States
attorney for the territory Of Colorado, that
the constitution, etc., shall be by them
certified to the president Of the United
States, who, if he finds the terms of the
law complied With, shall tissue his proc
"lamation declaring the state admitted
into the Union on an equal footing with
"the original states, without any further
faction whatever on the part of congress"
The proper officers have not as yet GER
titled the result to the president. neither
has he issued his proclamation, so that there
are only thirty-seven states in the Union,
and only thirty stars on a " national
flag" Whether Colorado shall become
a state in the Union, depends, for the
present, on the freak of General Grant,
for he may take 1t into his wise head that
the constitution thereof is not " republican
" in form " or that it does not in every
respect conform to the requirements of the
enabling act, and therefore refuse to issue
his proclamation. Such freak would
not be strange one for the president to
take.
We support Hayes and Wheeler ON the
brief, but comprehensive, platform OF
~ he constitution. the Union, and the en-
"forcement of the laws" and THE GLOBE
Gag will keep "step to the music Of the
"Union.' When Colorado becomes state
in the Union, the flag will be omblazonet
with thirty-eight stars, but, until then, VT
do not propose to do as some of our cotem
porsries do, give in cur adherence to tht
secession democracy and, by ignoring th,
legality of the existence of West Virginia

The president has not yet signed the sill

of the bill authorizing the exchange of
Sl0,0 coo of silver for like amount of
legal tender notes will be practically in
operative from the fact that the treasury
has not silver enough on hand, and the
amount being coined is only sufficient tor
