There is 4 feeling in some quarters that in
sending in a message to the Legislature the
retiring Governor lags, a superiiuous veteran
on the stage. But it is meet and proper that
in leaving his Office the Governor should give
the people an account of his stewardship /;
and il is an excellent recommendations Gov
ernor Bastow' that such u duty should be
impOscdby law ON the cliring Governor. Gov
ernor Farlnham's message, which We lay be-
tore our readers to-day, is n valuable and in.
ttrcstlng paper and deserves careful perllsal.
1t reciles the doings of an administration
which has been able, upright and dignifed
and which has done excellent service for the
people of this Commonwealth. In retiring
to private life Governor Farnnam may well
carry with him the consciousness of duty
well performed and he will be followed by
the best and kndcs wishes Of all the people
OF Vermont.

At the last evenings session of the
Public Health Association, after the
address of welcome by Gov. Porter,
and Mayor Grubbs, President Ked>

This morning the executive commit
tee recommended the appointment of
a standing committee on the

of Texas, was read 1t gave the re-
suits of the observations in regard
to the relative size of the liver,
spleen and normal temperature of
Texas cattle. In the discussion of
this paper, Drs. Regan, of Texas,
and Hunt, of New Jersey, expressed
the opinion that the Texas cattle
fever was a disease that developed
when the animals were removed
from their native State to other
climates. Dr. Elisha Harris, of New
York, and Dr.. J. r. Smith were
added to the standing committee on
cattle diseases.

sent it to his son, Will G.. Mabry.
This coming to Major OConner's ears, he
denied it most positively, stating that he
was making the purchase for himself, and
knew nothing whatever of Will. in the
transaction. Sometime after that, on
Christmas eve, December Oath, 1881,
Will. G. Mabry, son of General Ma
bry, was killed by Don c. Lueby.
1t was soon charged 10y General Mabry
that Major O'Conner had procured this
killing to get Will out of the way, but it
was stoutly and firmly denied by Major
OConner, who affirmed that he didn't
know Lusby at all, and had no business
connection affecting Will that he knew of.
More recently Major O'Conner was ap-
9iied to to go on large security debt,
which was declined. The hard feeling
seemed to intensity, as time rolled on.
Finally, at the grand stand, on the fair
grounds, south of the river, Wednes-
day evening, General Mabry cursed
and denounced Major O'Conner,
sponsible for his son Willis death, and call
ed him Cd id robber and murderer.
Major O'Conner told him that was no time
or place. and he would have no difficulty
there, but would meet him at any time and
place and settle matters Generrl
Mabry swore that was the time and place,
and that one had to die-this town would
not hold them. Friends interfered and
prevented collision; which was immi-
nent
1t is positively asserted that Joe
Mabry and other friends made ev-
cry attempt since that time to
pacify and quiet General Mabry, and per-
suade him to let matters drop. 1t is also
said that Major orc inner received word
yesterday morning from General Mabry
that he would kill him ON sight; that he
(Mabry) did not expect to hire
much longer, but he intended to live long
enough to make Tom O'Connor bite the
dust
Immediately after the shooting James
o. Dickens, Charles G. Dickens
and Henry Howard, nephews of
Major O'Connor, who we're in the
bank, were placed under arrest. They are
guarded at the rooms, to await the action of
the grand jury on the verdict of the coro-
ner'rs inquest. That verdict, as is seen, as
well as the weight of evidence, impheates
no one but the dead men. Mr.. Steele,
who was with Gen. Mabry, was also placed
under arrest, but there being no evidence
to implicate him, he was released from fur
ther custody.
Seven men sreceived stray shots, none So
rious. The express wagon horse received
six or seven shots which will perhaps prove
fatal.

place at II a. m. Saturday; that of the
