Senator West Makes an Explanation

Senator West made personal explana-
ton in the senate Monday. He recounted
what took place before the house commit
tee on Saturday in relation to the reading
of the letter addressed from Governor
Wells to himself. He said he went over to
the house to aid the committeeiin their in
vestigation. He opened the letter and read
it to the committee, after which he desired
to make brief statement to the committee
but this privilege was denied. He charac-
terized this refusal as "scant courtesy" on
the part of the committee. The statement
he wanted to make was that he had receiv-
ed letter from the secretary of war last
November stating that there was man in
Washington named Maddox trying to ne
gotiate the sale of the vote of Louisiana.
On the receipt of this letter he telegraphed
to Gov. Wells asking whether Maddox was
such an accredited agent as he professed to
be. Gov. Wells responded that he was
not. Mr.. West stated that he "took no
exception to the non-delivery of Governor
Wells letter. He said he didn't think
Wells motive in writing it was other than
honorable. He (WesD never saw the man
Maddox until last month. 1t will be noted
that Maddox's story about his having spoken
to the secretary of war on the subject of
the necessity of sending money to Lousi-
aua is confirmed by the above statement of
senator. MIR. West, in answer TO a ques-
ton of Mr.. Bogy as to what explanation he
would make of the letters, said that he
(West) was ambitious to be his own sue
cessor in the senate, and the letter referred
to that. AS to speaking of "millions"
Governor Wells used the expression in the
same manner as Col. Sellers did. He meant
there was ga barrel of money" there to be
used against the republicans and aid was
needed-that is, if money was to be spent
on one side it must be spent on the other
He (West) would not rest for moment
under any suspicion that he was trafficing
in electoral votes.

Political Notes.

Salmon P. Chase, not Horace Greeley, as
commonly believed, said "the way to re-
sumo specie payments is to resume"
Judge Hoadley Of Cincinnati, who furn-
ished an opinion supporting Gov. Growers

Tilden counsel.
Boutwell,, quoted by Kelley in opposition
to the resumption OF specie payments, is a

she has replaced him by wiser man.

Seven democrats voted with the MACS of
the republicans in the house, Saturday, to

his barrels of money, Tilden won't care.

the New York Tribune, ''tor the senate

by saying that he has been clerk of the
Louisiana returning board for four years."
We doubt whether Gov. Hayes has init
mated to Gen. Bristow his purpose, should
he be declared elected, but neither he nor
Mr.. Tilden could do the country better
service than by reinstating the honest Ken
tuckian in the treasury department. Cin-

Ex-Postmaster General Jewell talks en-

ing administration, whoever it may be,
support on one side and confidence on the
other"
The presidents term of office is drawing
to close, but he has an indomitable will,
and still can exert large personal influ-
ence. We wish he might bring it to bear
on congress at this juncture. If such a
measure as the bill establishing the cleo
toral commission can be passed through
both houses of congress in eight days it
ought to be possible to put through in a
month simple bill to sell four per cent.

The National bank of Derby Line VS.. the
town of Concord, suit TO recover $40 in
terest on the town bond, issued in aid of
the Portland and Ogdensburg railroad has
been on trial before Justices CLANCY and
Nelson. Judgment was given in favor of
the plaintiffs to recover $40 and costs. The
defendants ask for an appeal to the county
court, but the plaintiffs claim that under
the statute laws of Vermont the case is not
appealable. The justices decision on the
appeal is deferred. This is called a test
case. and one of considerable Importance to
the bondholders.

in death in eight hours after. He was a

The president signalizes the last weeks
of his term of office by calling the renewed
attention of congress to the subject of an
early resumption of specie payments. He
does not recommend, as has been predicted
he would, an earlier date than that fixed
by the resumption act-January /, 1879
but recommends that the legal tenders, to
the amount of one hundred and fifty mil
lions of dollars be funded in forty years
four per cent. bond. This will produce
the necessary contraction to make resump-
ton safe, and will, at the same time, oper-
ate to retain the specie in the country.
Whatever the failings of the president may
have been, he has always been "sound" on
this matter of the resumption of specie pay
ments.

ANOTHER OCEAN DISASTER.
Wreck Of tho George Washington Of the
Cromwell Line

cromwell Line.
The British brigantine Orielton, from
Malaga, which arrived at st. Johns, Mon
day, reports having put into Fermeuse, on
the east coast of Newfoundland, and she
there learned that the steamer George
Washington, of the Cromwell line, between
New York and st. Johns, which left Hall
fax, N. s., January 1S, went ashore, prob
ably on the night of the Goth ult., about
half mile west from Mistaken point and
eight miles southwest from Capo Race.
The loss of the steamer remained undiscoy-
cred by the inhabitants of the coast till the
25th.
The coasting steamer Tiger, which ar
rived at st. Johns, Monday evening,
brought fuller information. Men from
shore, being lowered by ropes seventy faith
oms over the frowning cliff, found parts of
thirteen human bodies, which they buried.

body was marked in India ink with the

Pieces Of pork, blankets, life buoys and
other articles have been washed ashore, the
latter having the name Of the vessel. No
valuable property has been saved.
The crew numbered twenty-three per-

The Woman in the Case.

According to the World, the real cas,lS
6elh in MIR. Hanaford's church is a Miss
Miles. Miss Miles is Mr.. Hanaford's house
keeper. She seems to stand towards Mrs.
Hanaford, mentally and morally, as a sort
of support-in short, a sort of Mr.. Hama
ford. 1t is not good for woman to live
alone, More, it is impoa-ibie- Hf'"" Mics
l.. Mrs. Hanaford's true helpmate. She is
clerk of the church, assistant superinten-
dent Of the Sunday school, and 10 the real
chairman of the board of deacons. Miss
Miles is lady of great alscrity, decision
and force of character. Here is where the
shoe pinches. The male members of Mrs.
Hanaford's church do not like to have it
thrown up in their faces that their estab-
lishment is run altogether by women.
That's what the scoffers say. They can
get along with lady in the pulpit; they
have advanced to that extent in the recog-
milton of womens equal participation in
the worlds work. They admit that intel
lect knows no sex, and that the strongest
mind, be it male or female, must rule.
But it is one thing to admit the correct
ness of a principle and quite another to
live up to it and endure the inevitable ridi-
cule and sarcastic comment of crude and
unprogressed outside world. So the men
of Mrs. Hanafords congregation say sub
stantially: "We cannot afford to be bossed
by Miss Miles. Her intellect and execu-
tive ability may be stronger than ours, but
in the eyes of the world we must seem to
run this church, even if really we do not
Miss Miles seems to control affairs now,
but the age is not sufficiently advanced for
a society of men to remain contentedly
bossed by woman. We are not strong
enough to endure the ridicule and sarcasm
of the world. Therefore if Mrs. Hama

" the mode in which electors should be APP
"pointed." The Chittendens, the Robinsons,
the Tichenors, the Aliens, the Marvins, the
Halls, the Chipmans and the other leaders
of Vermont, at that day, did not leave the
validity of her electoral vote to be based
upon the argument that the fact of cleo
ton by the legislature was direction by
the legislature as to the manner Of their
appointment, however sound and unan-
swerable the argument might have been.
Vermont became state in the Union,
March 4, 1701, and the first session OF the
general assembly thereafter commenced
October 10, 1901. Soon after its assem-
bling, committee was appointed by the
house, to join similar committee from the
council, "to point out the mode of appoint
" ing electors to elect president and vice
"president of the United States" The
council concurred, November 1, and, No
vember 3, upon their report, law was
passed and approved by the governor as
follows
hh NV uhOOblhk thO hOhC VI
electors to elect the president and vice
president of the United States.
IL is hereby enacted By the general assem-
bly, Of the state of Ye7mont, That the elect
ors for electing president and vice presi-
dent of the United States, be appointed by
the ballots of The governor and council and
house Of representatives, met in grand COM
mittee and that those persons, to the
number which they have a right to appoint,
who shall have a majority Of oil the votes
of said grand committee, shall be declared
to be duly appointed electors of this state
for the purpose aforesaid.
Under this law, and in accordance with
its provisions, four electors were appoint
ed by the "grand committee" in 1909, and
four in 1906. In the general revision of
statutes, in 1907, this law seems to have
been omitted and not to have been again
enacted, SO that, until the presidential
election of 1923, we had no law providing
for the appointment of electors. AT the
session of the general assembly, in 1924,
Governor Van Ness called attention to the
fact that a presidential election was about
to take place, that it was for the legislature
to direct how the electors should be ap-
pointed, and, referring to the practice in
Vermont, said "The practice in this state
"has heretofore been for the two houses,
"by Joint ballot, to appoint electors, in
pursuance of concurrent resolution
previously adopted for that purpose no
CLAW having existed on the subipct The
governor, as we have seen, was mistaken
as to the first two presidential elections in
which Vermont took part, but there had
been no law regulating the subject since
1897, and the legislature, acting upon the
recommendation of Governor Van Ness
passed law providing for the election Of
electors by the people on a general ticket
And such is the law to-day.

A letter appeared in THE GLOBE, yester-
day, dated at Benninton, and signed, 81.
"B. C."-crediting Rev. Mr.. johnson with
saying that about 1923, the masons sub
stituted the word "devil" for "God" in U.S.
ing their liturgy in the lodge room-which
never should have been published. The
extract as contained in the communication,
bore falsehood on its face, and was evil
IDENTIFY garbled in order to make q point
against Mr.. johnson. The fact is Mr..
johnson made no such statement in his
sermon; the extract, if it had not been gar
bled, would have shown that he did not;
and we believe that he is incapable of CIV
ing currency to any such SANDER. We re-
greet that the communication was published,
as it certainly would not have been had it
been received before the editor had left the
office for the night.

Extract of letter from Rev. Richard Edes, OF
Bolton, Mass.
"For years was sufferer from boils, 80
that my life became wearisome through
their frequent and persistent recurrence.
carbuncle, which ultimately occupied a
space of three or four square inches,
formed in the small of my back. During
its progress, large pieces Of decomposed
flesh were every day or two cut away; and
the prostration and general disturbance of
the system were great. Before / had re-
covered from this attack, two smaller car
buncles broke out higher up, and was
again threatened with recurrence of the
sutferings to which had so long been sub
jected. 1t was at this time that COM
menced taking the PERUVIAN SYRUP.
continued taking it until had used five
bottles since then have had nothing of
the kind. l attribute this improved state
OF my system entirely to the PERUVIAN
SYRUP; and feel that 1 cannot express
my obligations to II in terms too strong.
For years was one of the greatest suffer
ers. Other medicines gave me partial and
temporary relief, but this remarkable rem
edy, with kind of intuitive sense. went
directly to the root of the evil, and did its
work with thoroughness worthy of its
established character"
