Addison County Temperance Conven-
ton,

The friends of temperance in Addison
county met in large numbers at the Con-
gregational lecture room in Middlebury on
Wednesday, Feb. 81, at 10 a. M, for the
purpose of nominating a candidate for
county commissioner.
John L. Baker, esq, of Middlebury, was
elected president, and L. E. Knapp of
Middlebury, secretary.
On motion of Prosper Elithorp, esq, of
Bridport, it was voted that the chair ap-
point committee to report the name of a
suitable candidate for county commissioner.
Ii was moved by Mr.. L. s. Dana of
Cornwall, that the committee consist of
two from each town, which was agreed TO.
Dea. James E. Crane of Bridport, coun-
ty commissioner, made his report. He had
appointed agents during the past year in
VergeDnes, Middlebury, Starksboro, Lin
coin, Bristol and Hancock. Those agents
had sold about So, 700 worth of liquor dur
ing the year. In December last, at his
suggestion, the agent at Middlebury had
labeled all bottles OF liquor sold with the
word "poison" and the deaths head and
cross bones.
The report was accepted after consld-
cradle discussion as to this action on the
part of the commissioner, by Rev. w. N.
Bacon, L. y. Bottum, esq, of New Haven,
Rev. DR.. G. B. Hubert, DR.. Root Of Bur
lington and others.
The committee on nominations reported
the name of Dea James L. Crane of Bird
port as a candidate for reelection, and he
was unanimously renominated. The con-
vention then adjourned.

Dom Patt has now reached the summit
of his earthly ambition. He wrote and
published an editorial IN his Washington
newspaper, the Sunday Capital, that, as a
result of counting the vote of Louisiana
for Hayes, notice was served on the citizens
of Louisiana and South Carolina that they
must take care of themselves, adding
How soon the lamp posts will bear fruit
is for them to say; and closing as fol-
lows; "If there is no law for fraud there is
reason for violence, aud to that we make
one last appeal" That such insane driv-
ellings should have attracted attention
seems well nigh impossible, but it was
seized hold of and made to do service as
the text for leading editorials innumerable,
aud if Dom Piatt was notorious before he
became doubly SO. To add to his notoriety,
the general government must take notice
of this idiotic effusion, and he has been in
dicted for melting rebellion! The Ameri-
can people must be queerly constituted if
such stuff is dangerous-but the govern
ment seems to think ii is and so has given
Dom the opportunity to play the role of
martyr. The worst punishment he could
receive would be to be let severely alone.

ABSURD sPECULATIONs.

Speculations as to the future are now
the order of the day, and the more absurd
they are the wider the circulation they OBJ
tain. The latest and the best is, that il
filibustering takes place and so the count is
delayed until after the fourth of March,
Senator Sherman will resign, Governor
Hayes be elected to fill the vacancy SO
created. be chosen president pro tempore of
the senate, and then become acting presi-
dent Of the United States. Quite a num-
Der of ''ifs," but if the "ifs" should all be-
come certainties, Governor Hayes could
not become United States senator in time
to be made president pro tempore of the
senate before the fourth of March. By
the laws of the United States, governing
such elections, state legislature cannot
ballot for United States senator until the
second Tuesday after it shall have received
notice OF vacancy, and the election can
not be completed until the Wednesday af-
ter; 30 that, if Sherman should resign to-
day, neither Governor Hayes or any one
else could be elected q senator prior to
Wednesday, March T. But there seems to
be no particular danger of these ''ifs" hap
pening.
But "lf" there shall be filibusterng and
delay OF the count, we apprehend that
John Sherman would not be found one of
the men ready and willing to step down
and out. He has sure thing of it for two
years longer, and would not be very apt to
abandon certainty for an uncertainty
esp scially as the object aimed at could not
be accomplished. But the whole theory
is, aside from its imposslbility, as absurd
as was the scheme concocted earlier in the
year to have General Grant elected senator
from Illinois in place of Logan, then that
he should resign the presidency, and Logan
the senatorship on the second of March,
Grant be appointed, by the governor, q
senator and be made president pro temp0re,
and, presto, he has "third term" Logan
wouldn't step down and out until COMPEL
ed to, and a legislature that elected Davis
would not have been very apt to have
made senator out OF Ulysses s. Grant.
Akin to these absurd speculations is the
proposition that the senate will place O
forced construction on the constitution
and the proposition comes from those who
were 30 shocked that congress should dc
violence to the constitution by the passage
OF the electoral billiard elect Governor
Hayes, General Grant, or some other out
slider, president pro tempore of the senate,
so that, "if," etc., he may become acting
president of the United States. 1t is true
that the constitution does not provide that
the president pro tempore shall be selected
from among the senators, but such has
been the practical construction from the
organization of the government down tc
the present day-and there is no danger Of
departure from that construction. Il
will do, however, for a speculation In thu
absence of any news to telegraph. From
the sources these various speculatons come

"If the democrats should 80 fllibuster,
by taking recesses, etc., ETC., as to delay
the count and thus defeat the election Of
president and vice president of the United
States, it Is said that the president of the
senate will take the matter into his own
hands, complete the count and declare the
election. While we do not believe that the
democracy are prepared to take any such
course, yet we cannot forget that the tech
nicsl letter of the law permits it; and that,
however unjustifablc and, perhaps, revo-
lutionary, it may be, still it will neither
justify or excuse the commission of coun-
ter act Of revolution on the part of the SEN
ate or its president. About all the re-
publicans have gained in this contest, thus
far, has been by rigid adherence to the
letter of the law, and we will not permit
ourself to believe that they will hazard
all, and invite future defeat, by an open,
palpable violation not only of the letter
but the spirit of the law. Better tempo

where it will belong, than such a rovolu,
