How IL Was.-Since the publication Of
the new law passed by the last Legislature,
by which this county is again brought un-
der the provisions Of the law requiring the
liquor dealers 10 be recommended by the
Grand Jury before they can procure licenses
To sell, many persons are inquiring how this
state Of affairs was brought about without
any petition for the same or any knowledge
Of the fact in the county. by reference 10
the House journal, page G7G, we find that
upon the second reading Of the bill, Mr.
Owen offered an amendment exemping this
county from its provisions. Ia copying the
bill for is final passage by inadyertance on
the part u the clerk having IL Ia charge the
amendment was not inserted aud the bill
was 30 passed. In the third or final reading
Of bills before the Legislature II l. the Gus.
tom ~ merely read the title, and this bad
practice often results In having laws passed
which are moi in accordance with the views
and desires vi members representing differ
cnl parts of the State.

Death OrJames w. Campbell, Esq -
citizen, which occurred on Sunday after
noon, we realize the fact that another land
mark has gone from our midst. Mr.. Camp
bell was born and reared in Montgomery
county and enjoyed the confidence and re-
spect Of all who knew him. II may be- said
that he was one Of the leading mechanics
Of the county, combining strong judgment
with artistic taste. In early life he was AN
earnest and Jealous supporter of the old
Wing party. Whilst firms in his views he
was manly and liberal in his intercourse, and
strictly honest in all his dealings Under
the provisions Of the Act incOrpD rating our
village, Mr.. Campbell was the President Of
the first Board Of Town Commissioners, the
duties of which he executed with fidelity
and impartiality.
Three years ago Mr.. Campbell wasstricken
down with a severe attack Of paralysis and
was great sufferer up 10 the close Of his
life.
Whilst Mr.. Campbell's death was not al
together II surprise, yet il produced II feeling
Of deep regret in large circle Of friend
and acquaintance, and opened wounds Of
of sorrow in the bosom Of family where he
was devoted husband aud an alTectionate
father.

Why Goals arc Sent TO Newcastle.

We are glad to see that Vermont is
thoroughly "beaten up" by Republican
orators, because it shows just estimate
of indirect forces in an election. Ver-
mont is one of the most steadiast Of Re-
publican states. 1t is state, indeed, so
hopelessly Republican that the Demo-
Gratis scarcely contest it. 1t is so char
acteristically Republican that, compared
with Enthusiastically Democratic
states, like a labama or Arkansas, it is
in itselfa powerful Republican argu-
ment. To fill it with Republican ora
tors and to kndle political enthusiasm
seems, indeed, TO be a most unnecessa-
70 shipment of Goals to Newcastle. But
it is not so. The fact that the state is
incontestably Republican breeds sense
of confidence and security which tends
to induce apathy and lethargy. The
Republican voter is tempted to take no
trouble to vote, and even to be careless
whether he votes or not. The Yer
monter has feeling that his state will
go Republican of itself.
Now there are great many voters in
the country who wish to go with the
majority, and to support the candidate
anu tiC party tldt ttlty tIliuh VIII Ut
successful. Such voters watch every
straw, to see how the wind is blowing
If they observe indifference upon the
part of the dominant party, they in
stantly suspect that ii forecasts defeat
and they prepare to throw themselves
upon what seems to them the winning
side. This one fact shows TO the Yer.
mont Republican his imperative duty
He ought to, and make his neighbors
vote, not to carry his own state, which
is sure enough but 10 help Maine he.
publicans carry Maine, Indiana Repub-
licans carry Indiana, and New York
Republicans carry New York.
The Democratic appeal is merely for
"change," and the voters on the fence
are looking to see whether the country
really desires change. If they observe
that Vermont apparently does not care
whether there is change or not, they
will vote for change. If they see thai
Vermont emphatically protests against
change, they will also sec that the coun-
try is satisfied to be so BEAUTIFULLY busy
and prosperous, and they Will vote
against change. The Republican ora
tors are in Vermont to remind their
friends of this situation, and TO show
them why it is that the great Republi-
can majority of Vermont should this
year be greater. Such a majority in
that state will inspire and strengthen
the whole Republican line. The good
effect will be felt in Indiana. We shall
feel it in New York. 1t will be the
significant announcement that in the
present situation of the country, and
with the prospect of its continuation
and further progress in the same hap
pv direction under the Garfield admin
istration, the Republican party is more
than everresolutely Republican, IIar-
per's Weekly.

Now and Then.

II may be interesting to some of the
present generation to consult ancient
history, SO far as to notice the transac.
ton of our progeDitors. In 1895 General
Washington, ISSUED his first Procla-
nation for Thanksgiving, to four mill.
ions of inhabitants. In 1876 President
Hayes isued his to more than forty-four
million, the growth of ayoung republic
during the life of single individual.
In 1879 Vermont elected Thomas
Chittenden 1888, 1890 and 1876, eight
years. Isaec Tichenor 1897, 1906 and
1908, eleven years. Jonas Galusha 1909,
1912 1915, and 1919, nine years. VIM.
A. Palmer 1881 to 1884, four years.
Silas A. Jenison 1885 to 1910, five years.
The increase of material has become so
great that now we elect one once in
two years.
The writer of these few lines partook
of his first thanksgiving feast in Ver-
mont under the bans of the first Pro-
clamation of General Washington.
In 1893, read In news paper the
announcement of the death of General
Washington. Served as volunteer in
the war of 1912, have voted for Repub-
lican elector for president fifteen times,
and hope to cast my vote next Novem-
Der for Republican elector and of course
some one will be elected.

The New President Of Middlcbury Col

The election of Rev. DR. Cyrus Ham,
lin, TO the presidency of Middebury
College, ana his acceptance of the posi-
ton, is piece of news which, to say
the least, will surprise the constituent
cy of the Bangor Seminary, which had
been supposed to be morally sure of
his valuable services for another year.
Looking at it abstractcdly, it seems
great pity that worker, so eminent
~ fitted by gifts and graccs, supple
mented by large experience on the
ground, should not spend the remain
der of his active days in the East, where
he has already accomplished so much
for Christ and for men. But since
considerations of health compelled his
return to his native land, and various
indications of Providence have combin-
ed together TO keep him here, Middle
bury College may be congratulated OH
having secured him for the chair which
DR.. Hubert has lately vacated. DR..
llamlin is older than he was fifty years
ago. but it has been half century of
growth and acquisition, and we feel
sure that, in the ordinary course of
events, he may be expected to make
his mark in his new position.-- Bos-
