Our Christmas tree was more than
snowy success. Better than its
qualities and quantities, which were
excellent, was the fact that the five
hundred faces turned tree-ward, were
from neighborhoods laying near the
circumference as well rs the centre OF
the town.
MIR. and Mrs. Edward Tracy,

The Christmas trees were generously
laden with gifts, not enc present, we
think, being forgotten, while many
had their arms full. Jokes were per.

another seasons use. 1t is gathered
from the pond, clear as crystal, and

Every one is in extacies over the

it is amusing, how many good old

going TO be.
The volume of the News for 1881
is expected to contain a series of let

The attention of farmers is called

About 30 of our young men have gone

THE sun FOR 1881.

this newspaperthroughou the year to come every.
body will find:
l. All the worlds news, so presented that the
reader will get the greatest amount of information
with the least Improbable expenditure of time
and eyesight. THE Sun long ago discovered the
golden mean between redundant fullIess and un'
satisfactory brevity. ~
II. Much of that sort of news which d, pends
less upon its recognized importance than upon its
interest to mankind. From morning 10 morning
THE sun prints a cOntinu Il story of the lives OF
real men and women, and Of their deeds, plans,
| loves, hates, and troubles. This story is more
varied and more interesting than any romance
that was ever devised.
III. Good writing in every column, and fresh
ness, originality, accuracy, aud dccorum in the
| treatment u every subject.
". Honest comment. THE SUNS halt is to
| speak out lcarle5sly about men and things.

party, and eaquel readiness - commend what IS
| Trustworthy or to rcbuGc what Is blamAble in
| Democrat or Rel ublican.
VI. Absolute independence partisan organi.
zatiOns but unWavering loNaltS TO true DehOt rate
principles, THE Sun believes that the Govern
ment which the Constitution gives us is 4 gCol
one to keep. Its notion Of duty is TO resist to its
| utmost power the clor of mCn in the Republican
party to set up another form Of government In
place of that which exists. The year 1881 and the

have nothing against the so called
new road, or any one that lives on IL,
but | think they should be content, as
the town has been to no small expense
to build them this new road, and this
road runs very near 10 where an old
one used TO run; and older, and no
doubt wiser men than l, had it thrown
up on account of its being a steep Hill
and a hard road. Only last winter
the ice teams had to take down the
fence and travel the old road, on ac-
count of the new road being very steep
and hard TO come up with a load. l
do not claim the Finnegan road an
easy road to travel, by any means. But
| do claim that You will not get run
over by the cars anywhere along the
SO called Finnegan road. still further
claim that the parties who erected
those new boards, directing travellers
by the way of the railroad crossings
and cutting orrepresenting the distance
to be l-2 mile shorter than what the
other boards do, did a great injustice TO
the people, saying nothing of the i'm
position it was to those who put up
the first boards.
| have always tried to be faithful
servant to my trust, and never in
tended to do any one injustice in exc
cutting my duties as selectmen, and |
think now that if the legal voters of
this town were called out to-day and
were to examine the two roads, they
would vote three to one for the course
taken by us to avoid these railroad
crossings. The most of us very well
know that this so-called lower road
was a Morristown scheme, and that
many of our old townsmen fought it at
the time, and do you suppose if this
railroad had been there at that time,
the road ever would have been LAID! ]
hardly think it would. Now suppose
there should few people from John
son come by the way of the street,
here, going to Morrisville, Wolcott OF
Stowe, what harm can it do? 1t Ger.
tainly will not harm our village, and
we have no railroad crossing in oul
streets to interrupt the traveller, and
we certainly have the best hotel ac'
comnodations here that there is il
this county, and perhaps some Of u:
might get chance to sell peanut, Of
a stove, or COW, or a dinner, or lei
q team. Now let us all be fair-mindeC
and not because we own house, Of
anything Of the kind on the new road
try to induce people to travel owe
this road, and over these railroad
crossings, for the sake of having then
pass our doors. Let people tina
know both roads travel which the,
please, and let strangers travel tin
safe road, over the hill. c. NJ. S.

The SO called "cuide Boa I'd War"

EDITOR News "A word about this
SO called Guide Board War, and Il mat
ter f no cause for war. The Select
men of this town see the danger of
Letting SO many strangers travel by
the so called river road. on account of
very bad railroad crossings. And |
will say right here that they are, no
doubt, the most dangerous railroad
crossings in the State Of Vermont.
The SeIectmen first tried to have the
railroad company put the lower road
in safer and better shape for travel by
putting up good railing along the
bank by the river side and putting in
some good cattle guards, or putting
the main travelled road on the other
side of the railroad from what it now
is. But the company would not do a
thing. They said: "Your town ac-
cepted the road we have furnished fol
YOU" We thought the town never had
accepted the road; but the railroad
claimed it did accept it the moment
the Selectmen allowed the public to
travel over it, and if the town was dis
satisfied with the road they had better
put it in shape to suit themselves.
But provided this is not true, and that
the railroad company is in duty bound
to put the road in good shape and to
stand in for all damages done to the
traveller on this highway, who are the
ones to compel them to do all this
| think there is many man along this
valley that knows how p:ompt and
how responsible for all these things
this railroad company has been. But
the railroad is where it is, and nc
doubt it will remain there for some
time to come. | hope SO at least
However we all know that the cross.
ings are dangerous. And now did the
Selectmen do any injustice to any
body in putting up those guide boards
directing travellers over the hill past
Finnegan's in going from Hyde Park
to Johnson? We hope we did not, as
there was nothing of the kind intended
| am sure; and provided there was
fifty guide boards at each end of these
two roads the writer of that piece in
the News last week could travel just
which way he pleased, and there is nc
law against it. And | say again thai
these boards were put up for the pro
lection of strangers, and to protect
the town against damages that must
occur on the lower road on account Of
bad railroad crossings.
The writer Of that piece in the News
says there never has been any acct
dents on this lower road. / wonder il
he ever heard about that horse being
killed there last spring, and that two
men barely escaped losing their lives
at the same time, and that Mr.. Serb
ner's team Of johnson was frightened
there once and ran away, throwing the
occupants out of the carriage, which
was then out upon the railroad cross
ing and hurting them quite badly
And does that writer know that nov
there is notice served on this towr
for damage done TO person on one
Of these crossings? And does he know
