A DEMOCRATIC LIE NAILED.-A windy
Democratic speaker at Waterbury, Thurs.
day night, in discoursing on our state affairs
and Republican misrule, made the scandal
ously false statement that our state debt had
increased since the war till at the present
time it amounted to between 100000 and
Sl0,000,000. The lie was so bald that it
was source of wondering admiration to
Republicans, who have become measurably
familiar with Democratic exploits in this
line. There is game sometimes played by
bad boys called "lying for jackknife," in
which after certain number of trials the
boy who tells the biggest lie wins the knife.
General Nickerson must have been an ex-
pert at this game in his youth he certainly
won the knife against the whole Democratic
field at Waterbury, The facts about our
state debt are briefly these. There are
$4,000 in state bonds due in 1876 which have
never been presented for payment. Who
the holders are is not known, and the efforts
of our state treasurer to unearth them have
been unsuccessful. The bonds are not bear
ing interest and the money is in the treasury
to pay them. The state has no other actual
debt and has in the treasury over 100000
with which to pay contingent expenses.
The voters OF Vermont will not see in this
fact any reason for turning out Secretary
Page and putting in his place the represen-
tative Of party that resorts to such despi'
cable tricks to compass its ends.

PLAIN TRUTH.-Congressman Springer of
Illinois, the leader of the Democratic party
in that state, in his recent speech at Sulli-
van, Indiana, aftes paying high tribute to
the honesty and ability of General Garfield,
expressed his disappointment at the nomina-
ton of General Hancock. He had hoped,
he said, that the party would select civilian
standard bearer, for he believed {" the presi.
dent of the United States should be a man
who knows all about civil affairs who knows
the regulations of the various departments
the management of the judiciary, Legislative
aud executive departments the department
of state, which deals with foreign countries ;
the treasury department, with the millions
Of treasure; with civil service, and with the
great and rapidly growing commerce of our
land, thereby bringing the greatest happi-
ness to our people. | therefore thought the
best interests of our people demanded man
experienced in civil affairs, and when our
convention at Cincinnati nominated purely
military man must confess TO you, my
friends, thought it would have been better
TO have nominated a man with some civil
experience.

Secretary Schurz,s Sneech.

The formal opening of the canvass in In
diana was made Tuesday night, the Goth
instant. At that time Secretary ScLurz de-
livered speech, full abstract of which
will be found in our columns. The public
position Of the speaker, his great ability,
his rich experience, and his steadfast ad-
herence to high principles in politics, give
special weight and significance to his utter
ances. 1t is practically the opening of the
national campaign, as it indicates the line
of the Republican attack with all the clear.
ness and fullness of the commander-in-chief's
instructions to his generals. Democrats
construe the secretary's appearance in the
canvass as a violation of the administra-
tons civil service policy and an offense
against official propriety. But the people
will acquit him of any breach of the laws of
official decorum. The eminent fitness of
high government officials coming before the
people, and decorously and candidly in nom
partisan speech, explaining the purposes of
government and the principles which have
decided its course, is too plain to admit of
discussion. The secretary's vivid portrayal
of the difficulties and dangers that would
beset General Hancock if elected, and the
widespread Generalization that would be-
fall the government service by the removal
of eighty thousand trained and generally eff.
ficient public servants, and the substitution
in their place of hastily-seected, inexperi-
enced, famished ofiice-seekers, is as forcible
as it is truthful. His speech is the most
damaging blow General Hancock's candidacy
has yet received. 1t is equally effective on
every point the secretary discusses. The
speech is its own best commentary. Its
power as campaign document was in
stantly recognized by Republicans every
where, and the Vermont state committee
have ordered twenty thousand copies of the
full speech printed in pamphlet form for
distribution in this state.

The Democratic Nominee.

The state Democracy have nominated, for
the head of their ticket, man of high legal
ability, of brilliant intellectual attachments,
OF pure character and unblemished integrity.
Mr.. Phelps was formerly Wing, and when
that party split on the slavery question, he
took his place with the Silver Grays. When
the war came his sympathies were of that
lukewarm nature that classed him with the
Bourbon wing of the Democratic party; and
though he is not, by nature or by education,
apolitician, his political affiliations since the
war have been with the aristocratic extreme
OF that party. He is essentially undemo-
cratic, in the original meaning of the term.
Ills tastes and prejudices are of that exclu.
sive, illiberal character that would have made
him royalist in the time of the revolution /;
In France he would be Bourbon, and in
England he would be a Tory. That broad,
rich vein OF generous human feeling that
wound through the natures of such men of
culture as Sumner, that inspired the actions
of Lincoln, and that directs the course and
decides the political afiinities of the cul-
tured classes in the law, in literature,
in the pulpit, or in our educational in.
situations, is not found in Edward j..
Phelps. Had it been, his political principle
would have been abreast of the spirit of
the times in this as well as other coun-
tries. Violated, outraged human rights
would have had the benefit of his splendid
talents, and he would have been saved the
everlasting disgrace of that cold, sneering
impious speech, with which he signalized
his acceptance Of the Democratic nomina-
ton. His candidacy, and his SCOTS and taunts
aimed at the party OF universal freedom and
the race struggling up out of the bondage
of centuries, amid every element of oppo.
sition that hate and prejudice and over
towering numbers can devise and execute,
is the death knell Of Democratic hopes of
reducing the Republican majority in Yer
mont. The men of the Green Mountain
State will see to it that she does not, in APP
pearance even, endorse the political senti-
ments of the Democratic nominee for gov
ernor,

The County Convention.

The meeting of the Republicans of the
county in this village in mass convention
Saturday, August 9TH, will be an extraordi-
nary occasion. General Stewart L. Wood
ford of New York, the peerless orator, will
be present and address the citizens of Wash
ington county on the issues of the campaign.
The railroad will carry for fare one way, and
we hear of large delegations, numbering
hundreds from some of the larger towns of
the county, making arrangements to attend
in body. Let every town turn out en-
masse. 1t will be an occasion that rarely
comes to us among the green mountains of
Vermont.
In regard to the nominations, there seems
TO be very general sentiment in favor of
retaining in office many, if indeed not all, of
the old officers. That Mr. futile will be re-
nominated for high sheriff seems quite GER
tain. Deputy Sheriffs Anterior of Water
bury and Howe of Mortified have their
friends, and in the event of change the
choice would doubtless fall on one of these
gentlemen, either of whom is well qualified
for the position. Hon. j. II. Hastings of
Waitsfeld is named as possible candidate
for associate judge, as is also d. T. Averil
of Mortified, in the event of Judge Riford
declining to run for another term. Judge
Riford has made faithful and very accept
able officer, and many voters think there
should be no change in this office. States
Attorney Plumley is candidate for re-elec-
ton. If all the county officers hold over,
there is certainly no reason on the score of
qualification and faithful services why an
exception should be made in Mr.. Plumley's
case. o. b. Boyce, Esq, of Barre and C. H.
Pitkin, Esq, of Montpelier would make eff
ficient officers, and in due course of time
their fitness and ability will be honorably
recognized. The senatorial question re-
mains as stated in our last issue. The Of
flee of judge of probate, for good reasons, is
not frequently changed, and Judge Tilden
will doubtless be his own successor.

The Situation In Indiana.

The Ledger Standard, one Of the most ably
conducted and influential Democratic papers
in Indiana, refers to the party nominee
for governor in the following complimentary
terms. "If the miserable, illiterate dema-
gogue and professional ofIice-hunter who dis
graces the head of the Democratic state
ticket desires TO make war on the Ledqer
Standard and the thousands of true Demo
Gratis of Southern Indiana who despise him,
he will more than likely receive satisfaction
to his hearts content long before he occu-
pies the gubernatorial chair" A gentle.
man resident in Indiana who has travelled
through the state for the past year says the
above extract is not an unfair description
Of the Democratic candidate. The Repub.
lican candidate, Judge Porter, is an able law
yer, was formerly Democrat, but left the
party when the Kansas Nebraska-L ecomp-
ton imbroglio drove the best element from
its ranks, and, as a co-worker with Governor
Morton, was one Of the leaders in the forma-
ton of the Peoples party in the state. He
has since served in congress, is sound on the
financial question, has never been defeated,
is gentleman of spotless reputation and
magnificent stump speaker. Opposed to him
is Mr.. Landers, the man outlined in the
above extract from Democratic journal of
his own state, Observation-Disclosures Labor
Reform-De La Matyr Democrat, who has been
everything in his insatiate hunt for office.
Our informant further says that after ten
years exertion the best men in both parties
at last got seven amendments 10 the state
constitution submitted to the people last
spring They were all adopted by 1900 to
$4,000 MISUNDERSTANDING very heavy Dem
ocratic Vote. Hendricks was solemnly prom
ised, at st. Louis in 1876, the nomination in
1880 If he would then take the second place.
He held the party TO that contract, but, as
the time for the Cincinnati convention APP
boom of some sort in order to get the nomi.
nation. To this end he arranged with three
of the Democratic supreme Judges to bring
up an amicable test case as to the constitu-
tionality of the amendments adopted at the
state election in April. The amendments,
among other things, made Indiana Novem-
Der state. The suit was carried up Three
weeks before decision was had it was cur. |
rent Democratic talk that Indiana was still |
an October state. Hendricks went to Gin |
cinnati with the impressive announcement
that Indiana ia still an October state and that |
he only could carry Indiana. The disaffec-
ton and disgust over Landers, Hendricks,
and the supreme court, is widespread and in
durable, and Indiana is no longer doubtful
state, but is sure for Garfield for president |
and Porter for governor.
