The Political Opinion OF the West
ern States.

A correspondent of the New York Times
has been canvassing political opinion in
the western states. He finds that the
opinion of both parties 10 that as goes New
York SO goes the Union. There is nota-
bic lack OF confidence In both parties
Democrats are good deal discouraged be-
cause of.the action Of their representatives
ia congress. Republicans feel that the
south lie likely 10 be almost solid for the
democratic candidate. The uncertainty
leads thinking men of both parties to urge
that the best men be put forward. The
correspondent is Convinced that "thc ma
chine" will have but little force with the
western delegates. They will go to Gin
cinnati prepared to sacrifice personal or To-
calty claims in the interests of the best and
strongest man and success. An exception
is to be made in the case OF Indiana,
whose choice is clearly defined, but whose
candidate has no chance. In connection
with the conciliatory spirit shown outside
of Indiana the correspondent says
1t may be that this spirit will discover
the ''great unknown" whom Mr., Blaine is
represented as regarding as his most for
midable contestant, but the present indica-
ton is that if this sentiment prevails, it is
most likely to fix upon Mr. Bnstow as its
representative. That this remark may not
be given an undue importance, will say
at once that Mr.. Blaine, per contra, seems
to have the greatest strength among polit.
cal circles only it is always doubtful
nowadays how much the professional poll
ticians and the self-constituted wire-pul-
crs can control the assertion of the popular
will. The western states will not be Sc
rlously encountered by the "favorite SON

VERMONT CURRENT POLITICS.



Editor Rutland Globe In THE GLOBE
OF Saturday laet, your correspon-
dent B. has seen fit to make an utterly un-
called for attack upon the character and
conduct of Hon. Jacob Estoy. We do not
know that Mr.. +. has ever aspred to the
office of governor OF the state Of Vermont,
or that 1t ia by his permission that his
name has been mentioned in connection
with the coming canvass.
We do know that he is cminently fitted
to honor with his occupancy the guberna-
torial chair. b. desires "to know of elm
gle qualification that ho has for that Office
but his money, and the donations which he
has made to Baptist churches and their
schools In his esteem strict justice, un-
sullied integrity, great business capacity,
unwearied energy, enlarged benevolence,
and devout piety all 60 for nothing. He
wants man of education, and of general
information in public affairs" SO far as
appears from his communication, these are
all the qualifications for which he seeks.
lie may find these in abundance, among
men utterly inefficient and steeped to their
eyebrows in fraud.
Mr.. B.'s public and private career are
without stain. The great capacity and
the wondrous energy which he has exhib-
tied, in the face of obstacles and disasters
which would have utterly disheartened and
discounted most men, are known through.
out the state. The wealth which he DOS
sesses has not been inherited, but accumu-
lated from early poverty, by tho blessing
of God upon well directed and persistent
enterprise and industry. He is the peer of
any man in the state, in these character
ietics. so essential to an executive officer.
or what he has acquired he has literally
impaired for the common veal. If he has
given largely for Baptist churches aud
schools, he had the right to select his own
channels of beneficence and no man can
say that these were unworthy ones They
are, however, far enough from being the
only recipients Of his bounty bounty
which has shown itself ready to every good
work.
If Brattleboro has Give hundred other
men" equally worthy Of the Office, it is
sneularIy fortunate town. We can but
feel that if such be the fact these men are
guilty Of hiding their light "under a
bushel or under bed"

A Sensation at Troy.

A special dispatch from Troy details
some singular circumstances in regard to
the death of Hon. Latham Cornell of that
city, but ia former years prominent bust
ness man of Boston and Chicago. De-
ceased was IS years old when he died a
week ago. He is near relative of Vice
President Cornell of the Western Union
telegraph company. Although he died a
week ago, his remains have not been in
TERED. Deceased left $600.000 worth of
property, and some of his relatives claim
that suspicious circumstances attended his
demise, and that an inquest should be held.
Col. Latham &. Strong, who is well
known political contributor to the press,
and who is grandson of the deceased, has
engaged legal counsel and applied for a
mandimus to compel the widow of the de-
ceased, who retains possession of the body,
to give it up for burial, and show cause
why ii has not been inferred. Deceased

Can we procure an auul.Onai ana aue-
quate supply of water without burtheniug
the village with additional taxes for years
to come ? II the water commissioners are
correct in their estimate, we believe We can.
They estimate that "we can increase our
" supply of water to almost any desirable
quantity, by an outlay Of from twenty
thousand to twenty-five thousand dol
"lars." From what We know of their
plan, we believe that ii can be done within
the estimates but, 10 make assurance
doubly sure, place the. possible outlay at
thirty thousand dollars, giving us, then, a
bonded water debt OF sixty thousand dol
lars-or less than four per cent. of our
appraised valution, or four-fifths of the
proportion which political economists esti-
mate as the limit for municipal indebted
ness. Our bonds, bearing six per cent. in
torest payable annually, could be placed on
the market at par, and made payable iu in
stallments of twenty-five hundred dollars
annually from and after 1885, or 1887.
This would give US, from the time of the
negotiation of the bonds, payment, the
first year, of sixty-one hundred dollars, de-
creasing year by year until the last year,
when the payment would DO only twenty
six hundred and fifty dollars.
This can all be paid out of the water
rates, even if the annual payment should
remain at sixty-ope hundred dollars, in-
stead Of decreasing in amount annually, land
yet leave sufficient for ordinary repairs and
for the average proportion of permanent
fixtures. The figures for the past year
show this, the receipts for water rates be-
ing nearly eight thousand two hundred
dollars, the expenditures for repairs and
fixtures trife over three thousand dollars,
and the actual payments on account of in
debtedness nearly fifty-fve hundred dol
lars-S5, 1860. Last year was not, by
any means an exceptional year, the expend-
lures for ordinary repairs and permanent
fixtures being in other ycars-and we in

TEE suPPLy OF WATER.

The water commissioners, III their annu-
al report, call renewed attention to the
gradual annual decrease Of the supply OF
water, stating that further delay TO take
action in the matter is dangerous, the fac
being, as they are informed, that, on &C
count of the presenttinadequat supply and
its steady annual decrease, the insurance
companies, or some of them, have "alrea-
"dy commenced the canceling of policies.
However this may be, it is undenable this,
the matter OF water supply has very close
relation to insurance, and is an, tho, impor-
tsnt element in determining rates.
AS was stated at the recent meeting of the
Underwriters association of the south, the
subject of the water supply necessarily
occupies among underwriters place Of
"prime Importance, as determining the
ability of even the best departments to
"arrest CONGREGATIONS" and it was there
fore resolved that that and similar associa-
tions would use their influence to procure
for those localities which had provided
themselves with facilities for controlling
fires ga discriminating tariff of rates.; and
that municipalities should "receive q,,id
"pro quo for improvements in water sup.
ply, in reduced rates of insurance pre-
" miums," so that capitalists and property
owners might 'see the advantage of insu-
gurating aud encouraging their establish
"ment"
Aside from the question of economy and
protection from fire-whicb, of themselves,
are sufficient to control acton-it will soon
be a matter of absolute necessity to increase
the supply. If not now, in the immediate
future. There is even now an earnest de-
mand for the extension of mains and
branches through streets which are, as yet,
unsupplied with water. Perhaps, with the
present Income from water rates, these ex-
tensions can be made out of the surplus
funds in the hands of the commissioner,
without causing debt or additional expense
to the village. But the difficulty ia, that if
these mains and branches are laid, there is
no water to furnish or, at the best, par
tial supply of water will be furnished to
such streets at the expense of the rest OF
the village Practically, we should be as
