The Vermont Democrats have been ad.
miringly watching their Maine brethren,
and striving to profit by their example. The
constitution of Vermont requires the town
officers to send the ballots for Governor to
the capital by the elected Representatives,
an they are there to be counted and the re-
suit declared. The custom has grown up,
however, of making written returns, as in
other States, from which the result of the
voting was ascertained and declared The
Democratic plan was to have all their repre-
sentatives bring along the ballots, and as it
was expected the Republicans would have
few or none to offset them, the election of
the Democratic ticket could be insisted
upon. The Vermonters however, were not
as shrewd as the Maine conspirators, and
their plot was exposed.

Obadiah Again.
With Extracts From Jeffersons Writ
ings.

To the Editor Of the Press.
That ust-dsturber of documents OF bye-
gone generations who signs his name to his an
tiquarian broadsides as Obadiah, gives us anoth-
ershovelful of Democratic abuse of the Supreme
Court in the columns of the Argus. This time
the veneering has been worn through on the
veteran and he shows his teeth and utters a
growl like that of wolf in trap-and for the
same reason. The wolf hates the trap, for it
has put stop to his prowling after what don't
belong to the brute; and our Court has upset
the Democratic scheme to steal a State That
is what is the matter with Obadiah.
He wants the PRESS to quote jefferson, and
tells us Jefferson wrote the Declaration of
Independence" thank you We have heard
something of this kind before. If you had
been close student of that document and
thought less of another man whose name be-
gins with Jefferson you would not be condon-
ing the Democratic steal in this State. We
will quo,e from oar jefferson; in the Delara-
tior. named he says governments are insttu-
ted among men, deriving their just powers
from the consent of the governed. Obadi-
abs argument carried out would violate tlis
grand principle and put the power In he Gov
ernor and Council to issue without question
certificates to whomever they pleased no matter
whether they were elected or not. That is
the difference between Obadiah and the Court
they hold to Jefferson; he doesn't.
Again, hear jefferson arraign the King:
"He has refused to pass other laws for the ac-
commodation of large districts of people unless
those people would relinquish the right of
representation in the legislature right ines
timable to them and formidable to tyrants on
ly." Garcelon tried to do precisely that, and
considering that it is one hundred years since
the king did what Jefferson charged say
Garcelon & Co. were ten times greater rascas
than George the Third ever dreamed of being.
Permit me to quote from an address adopted
October 26, 1774-Journals of Congress, Vol.
page 55. I'm this form the first grand right is
that people having share in their own gov
ernment by their representatives chosen by
themselves and in consequence of being ruled
by laws which they themselves approve, not
by the edcts of men over whom they have no
control. This is bulwark surrounding and
defending their property SO that no portions of
it can legally be taken from them but with
their own full and free consent"
Obadiah wanted the people of this city to have
valuation put upon them tUr the next ten
years, and would compel eur people to pay
one-eighth OF the State tax without having
any voice in the matter. He wanted to extend

THE following fearful picture of famine
in the Providence Journal: "In one single
parish, that Of Cranagh, on a wild, rocky
promontory extending into the ocean, the
whole population, with the exception of
some dozen families, and numbering nearly
five thousand souls. are on he high road to
starvation, and nine-tenths of the whole
coast population of Connaught, from Gal
way to Sligo, are not much better. Many of
the families have eaten their last of even
their seed potatoes, and are now living on
single meal day of dog-fsh, periwinkles Or
Indian meal cruel, the last obtained by beg
gary or the sale of loads of turf or seaweed,
which are carried for ten or fifteen miles on
the back over the fiinty rocks and the rough
roads. The life seems to have gone out of
the people, and they sit around their scanty
fires in their cabins all DAY without attempt
ing to move, for that would increase the
pangs Of hunger, and at night sleeping in
their clothes on the floor, every article of
furniture or bedding having been sold The
typhus fevers, which always accompany fam
inc, have made their appearance, and are al
ready sweeping off their victims. To add to
the distress, the cold has already become
very severe, the mountain lochs are frozen
over and a severe snow storm would isolate
many of the cabins and ensure the death of
every one of their occupants. Nothin but
the most energetic measures can give relief
to the suffering population, and the need
will be continued until Spring and even
longer, unless general system of public
works is established. This picture of the
distress of whole people from hunger and
cold is very moving one, and should stimu-
late the charity that is now beginning to
flow, but whose uttermost limits cannot
overpass the demand.''

Political Riders and Appropriation
Bills,

For long time the House Committee on
Appropriations, which has gradually come
into possession Of great power, has been an
object of jealousy to other committees. The
estimates of heads of departments are now
referred to it, and it reports the appropriation
bills to the House Others of the leading
committees have striyen to acquire the priv
ilege of reporting these bills on the ground
that they know better what their branches
of the service demand than the Appropria-
tinn Committee can. On the other hand it
is urged that these committees consider only
the needs of the special branches of the ser
vice with which they are concerned and are
apt to make disproportionate demands upon
the revenue, whereas the Appropriations
Committee has the whole field in view and
can cut down estimates here and there so as
to equitably apportion the gross sum among
the diverse and sometime conflicting inter-
ests. The revision of the rules gave oppor-
tunity to join issue on the question. Hence
the struggle, which has, SO far as the matter
of reporting appropriations is concerned, re-
suited in triumph for the Appropriations
Committee.
But during the discussion another and
very important point came up, question
over which the wrangle in the House Thurs
day took place. Formerly there was q rule,
nominally now in force, forbidding the at
tachment to appropriation bills of political
measures with the intent to compel the Ex-
ecutive to veto the appropriation or accept
the measure. But this rule has practically
been nullified by an amendment permitting
amendments changing existing laws to be
made to the bills, if they be germane to the
subject and reduce expenditures. Under
this amended rule measure abolishing the
army could be attached to the army bill, for
it would certainly reduce expenditures.
Thus the amended rule opens the way to
the introduction of numerous abuses, per-
lnits the appropriation bills to become meas
ures for general legislation, and puts it in
the power of Congress to coerce the Execu-
tive as was attempted at the extra session.
1t is against this power of annexing politi-
cal riders to appropriation bills, power
recognized by the revised rules, that the
Republicans, assisted by few independent
Democrats, are making their fight. 1t was
really on this question that the debate
Thursday, reported in another column, took
place.

EVERY Fusion paper in the State now has
its own ''great constitutional lawyer" The
Rockland Opinion has two. Why not, in
the interests of economy, club together and
have but one for the crowd? But perhaps
the lawyers are SO cheap that the expense is
but a trife, or the law so thin it won't go
round.

THIS is the welcome the Boston Herald
gives: The Democrats Of Boston will hard
ly know whether to rejoice or be sorrowful
over the news that Eben f. Pillsbury is
about to remove here. He is man of
brains, but he can only throw one vote, and
his contingent abilities are not likely to be
needed by the party here. His seeking
new home at his time of life is a striking
confession of the failure of his plans in
Maine and the probable future consequences.
