The band stand has been removed from
the east side of the common to the west
side and permanently located in much
more central and desirable place, being
easier of access, and that acco mmodates
the public very much.

-Four years ago Montpelier cast S7S
votes for governor and gave republican
majority of 1873. Two years ago our
majority was SO. Tuesday the town cas,
S3l votes and her republican majority
was 249.
The republicans gained 81 over their
vote of 1876 and the democrats lost 70,
making net gain of ll6 for the republi-
cans over the vote in the last presidential
year.
The above figures speak for themselves
as do the efforts of some democrats 10
belittle the republican victory by attrb.
uling it to unfair means, bribery, BULLDOG
ing and partisan action of the board of
civil authority.
If it does the wound any good it is the
privilege of the sufferer to salve it
that way. 1t will not avail however-the
trouble with the patient is his " constitu-
ton is broke"
Tho briefest review of the local cam
paign must suffice. Prior to July if any
work was done it was not done with a
brass band and at that date prominent
republicans were anxious to know if we
had a town committee
July I'd the campaign opened with Mr..
Horr's speech and from that time the
canvass went on. That was the evening
before Badly Smith made his first Mont
pelier speech for the democrats-a speech
that in eloquence and true what-do-you
call-t surpassed all his efforts except the
one he made last Monday evening. In
fact if it hadn't been for Gen. Smiths
speeches our victory would have been
overwhelming.
July 23d the Garfield and Arthur and
young republican clubs were organized
and the young republican banner was
raised and Col. Joyce spoke in Trinity
hall. August 18th Mr.. Ftield gave US his
effective speech in the same place.
Meantime the young republicans had
taken their coats off and one and all were
doing good york. The mechanics club
was organized and the Boys in Blue soon
followed, and it is to these two organiza-
tons that it is due that the defeat which
the work of the young republicans had
made certain for the democracy was turned
into utter rout. The workingmen of the
town took hold, and 10! the magnificent
majority of Tuesday!
August 9TH was the county convention
with Edmunds and Woodford as speakers.
That evening the mechanics club banner
raising followed. August 18th the Boy
in Blue raised their banner on South Main
street.
August Goth the clubs went to Plain
field, and August 26h 562 went down to
Waterbury, at which time the first torch
light procession was had. September 81
Mr. Peters spoke, and we had the brilliant
demonstration which we have neither
space nor time to describe.
Monday evening ex Governor Stewart
and Mr.. Fifield spoke at the splendid gath
ering on the illuminated Pavilion green
The democrats having engaged our Mont
pelier band which had given us such good
music at all our previous meetings, the
Sherman band of Burlington was procured
and gave us splendid music.
The campaign closed Tuesday when the
voters of Montpelier showed the splendid
gain of ll6, and elected their candidate
for town representative by a majority of
226.

One great reason why hot weather is so debili.

done by one or two bottles of Warmers Safe Tonic

The Human Nature Of Our Lord.

II is often said that half-truths are the
most harmful Of lies. There are those who
deny the divine nature Of our Lord, who
reckon him only man like ourselves. OF
the unspeakable wrong done to him and TO
our own souls by this denial, we will not
pause to speak. There are others who err,
perhaps as widely, we will not say as fatally,
by denying the human nature of our Lord.
To them he was God, and only God. He had
nothing of humanity save the visible form.
lie had no human appetite, or longing, or
limitation. We read in the Arabian Nights
how the sultan, of an evening, used to dis
guse himself in shabby Clothes and with
his vizier go about the city to see how things
were getting on. But in all this there was
no humiliation, no descent, no loss he did
not empty himself" to translate literally
Paul's strong term, feebly rendered by
"made himself of no reputation" He did
not become one of the people, citizen,
a subject, by putting off the royal garb or by
covering it with plain mantle. Such a
disguise, according 10 s.1ne, was the incar.
nation, disguise only. But we apprehend
that this is far from the view of the New
Testament The Word, who was God was
made flesh, literally became flesh, did not
merely put on flesh, assume human nature
as dress. He was the man Christ Jesus
lie was a babe, the son of Mary, nurtured
like all other babes; he was a boy, lad, q
youth, man. son, brother, an appren
tice, a journeymau, a carpenter, jew, 9
citizen. His body was constituted exactly
like ours, save that it had none of the traces
of personal or hereditary excess or disease
He had mind like ours he learned, he re
membered, he reasoned, he loved, he de

friends he was panied at loneliness, at in

toward the good. He suffered from tn

active practice of piety. To him hunge

The Brighter Side.

Christianity has nothing to fear. 1t is
not doctrine. 1t is fact. 1t is the rev
elation of Person, the Helper, the Friend,
the Saviour of men. 1t reveals to men the
truth that the Creator of the universe is the
everlasting Father. 1t may be that much
of the hard, dry, mechanical materialsm of
unbelief is the revolt of men from a no less
hard mechanical theology which lost sight
of the Fatherhood of God, and which has
so overladen the law of the gospel of Jesus
Christ with human theories that bewildered
souls might say, "They have taken him
away, and we know not where they have
laid him." Our greatest comfort is in the
faith that the ever-blessed Spirit is drawing
Christians together in the fellowship of
Jesus Christ This oneness in him is the
condition of the subiugation and conquest
of unbelief. 1t is marvel to see how walls
of prejudice and hedges of mans building
are crumbling down. True scholars in every
communion are studying that mystery Of
eternity, the incarnation and atonement of
the Son of God. Men who, in their hatred
of Calvinism, were driven to deny the old
faith, are finding the fruition of every hope
in their faith in Jesus Christ. 1t is blessed
token of deeper, truer faith when a Uni
tartan writes: "What multitudes have
IOunu NOT only rest, DuJ everlasting Joy, Nv
the feet of Jesus Christ, simply by giving
themselves away to him in an unbounded
trust What we want in Christ we always
find in him. When we want little we find
little; when we want much we find much
but when we want everything, and get re-
duced to complete nakedness and beggary,
we find in him Gods complete treasure
house, out of which come gold and jewels
and garments to clothe us, wavy in the rich
ness and glory of the Lord" One of the
largest booksellers said recently "There
has been no time since our house was es-
tablished when we sold so many religious
books, never time when so many thought
full people were reading books about the great
truths of Christianity" We
need not go ON. We admit all that the
most devout can say of difficulty and danger.
We have been saddened by the Wanting
boasts and SCOTS of unbelef; we lament
over our slowness of heart, our halting
steps we weep over the desolations of sin
but yet for all, when we look up to our
King, he sends back the answer to our
weary hearts, "The morning cometh."-
Bishop H. B. Whipple
