LAMoILLE COUNTY. - The Republican
County Convention at Hydepark. on We'd
nesday, was by all accounts one Of the live
lest on recent record. There had been an
active canvass for some time for the Sena-
torship, between the friends of K. +. Park
er. ESQ. of WolcOtt. and Hon. p X.
Gleed, Of Morrisvllle. Mr.. Gleed with
drew from the canvass about week
before the Convention but harmony was
not restored. Mr.. Parker was nominated
by a majority of one in the nominating
committee but Ii bsing evident that the
report Of the nominating committee would
not be accepted without a struggle but
that the matter would be fought out in
open convention. he withdrew his name. in
favor of Rev. Edwin Wheelock. of Cam
bridge who was then nominated without
opposition. This result is accepted by most
of the Republicans of the county as on the
whole y fortunate termination of what
might have been an ugly quarrel in the
party. Mr. Wheelock has had experience
as legislator. having represented his town
two or three years in the House. lie Is
worthy and respected man. good Repu bill
can. and will make dignified and capable
Senator. The Republicans of the county
should now let by-gones be by-gones and
null together with a will to roll up one of
''Spunky Lamoille's' biggest majorties, in
this Centennial year.

Temperance Camp Meeting.
'IRsT DAY-TUEsDAY,

SPRING GROVE, August 18th.
To the Editor Of the Free Press and Times
The temperance camp meeting opened
here to-day with a large and enthusiastic
attendance. The exercises were opened
with singing. followed with prayer by the
Rev. Mr.. Gregg, after which an address
was delivered by Mr.. L. l.. Durant, of
Montpelier. Brief remarks were then made
by c. &. Frost and H. NJ. Bryant, Of Maine,
and Miss Lucy j. Bradshaw, of Montpelier.
In the afternoon a speech was made by
the Rev. Mr. LOOMS, of Brooklyn. He
said that this temperance reform movement
had been prominently religious move
ment. 1t owes its origin largely to wo-
men. lie compared this movement TO the
circling waves caused by dropping a
stone into pond or lake, which soon ex-
tend over the whole surface. lie also
spoke OF the influence of mind on mind.
The influence of kindness on rumsellers was
very striklngly portrayed. lie said three
fourth OF the inmates OF the Jalls and poor
houses, in Brooklyn. are there from the ef-
iects OF intempersnce. The Church can do
much to root out this evil.
Miss Bradshaw, Of Montpelier, spoke more
at length, saying that she was not public
speaker, though deeply interested in this
great work. Women can do great deal /;
but We need men to make and execute the
laws. They will not execute themselves.
Mr. Doutney said he took courage when
he knew that the ladies took an interest in
such as himself. lie pictured in very
vivid manner his conversion and reforma
ton. Seek out the outcas.s and help to lift
them up. was the burden OF his remarks.
Mr.. Frost said there were temperance men
years and years ago. But 1900 years ago
there came a new man, new lswmsker.
who Infused new spirit into his deeds, the
spirit of brotherly love, Say not that this
work begun two. three or four years ago
It begun ages ago. Wives ard mothers have
prayed during all these years for reforma
ton. am reminded Of the time centuries
ago when band Of men pitched tents on
the eastern shore to drive out inhdelity and
hope that W Who have pitched our tents
on this ground shall see the beginning OF a
crusade which shall ripen into an abundant
iruItage. y.
