ER-Rutland, which has been enjoying
quite a season of liquor prosecutions,
insomuch that outsiders had almost

after all, to be pretty much like o good
many other towns. The law, by some
strange coincidence, has struck only the

these latter seem TO have been protected
by some kind of legal lightning rod, all
OF which is not an unfamiliar expert

cipal hotels sell continually and are not
disturbed; just opposite the depot is n
rum hole pure and simple, where the
stun is dealt out without any attempt at
concealment. The proprietor of this
latter says they do not dare touch him,
and il is evident he has considerable

the farce. But it seems as if Rutland
were a long way ahead OF us In down
right hypocrisy and Injustice when its
citizens can exult over the ruin of one
poor fellow by a fine and costs of over
one thousand dollars, while several
rumsellers are able to boast that they
cannot be touched. 1t looks as though

1-Therc is something ~saddening in
the plaintive and fearful tone of the
Vermonter this week. Several writers
of fair English appear to have been
hired to express unfavorable views OF
the late convention, which is solemnly
pronounced a bogus affair. And the
voters are assured that the grand old
Republican party will go into immortal
smash unless they cast their votes for
a man who opposes the p%rohibitory law.
Judge Wicker, whom most people con-
slider a pretty fair and square sort of q
man, wrings tears from the tortured
hearts of Mr.. Reads employees, becaus .
after having been elected 10 seyera
offices no "'seeks an opportunity to rend
the hand that lifted him to place and
power" How dreadful! Perhaps Mr..
Wicker will pine away with remorse
when he reads the opinions expressed
of him by Mr.. Reads Pecksnifs.
One thing is noticeable, however.
Mr.. Read appears to have done his
best TO put himself in the best possible
light before the people of the county
through the Vermonter of this week.
Yet he says not one soord on the real
issue. The claim made against Mr..
Read Is that he will vote and work
against %prokibitory legislation. That
belief was the cause of the bolt. His
friends have continually assured us that
he was a temperance man. That is not
enough. How will he vote in the Sem
ate? Strange as 1t may seem to those

wrThe statements made by two ofthe
county papers last week, that il was re-
ported that Judge Wicker declined his
nomination, were simply full-nedged
falsehoods, made without any attempt
to ascertain the facts. Judge Wicker
doubtless wished to decline, and had
written a letter with that intention, but
was persuaded 10 withdraw 1t. But he
had neither made nor authorized any
statement that he declined.

The following snake story is aloai,
without its paternity being disclosed
81 remember a small Mussulman boy,
one OF our servants, lying in the veran-

horror, We saw o cobra creep out of q
lot OF boots lying near, which the boy
had been cleaning. The cobra passed
over his face, and actually dartcd his
fork In aud out Of his open month,
The boy never stirred, and we re
marked how proyidential it was that

E-Several state papers, commenting
upon the recent mass convention, state
that the objection to G. W. Read is thai
he Is not a temperance man. The real
objection to MI. Read is that he will
work against our %prohibitory laws.
Such, at least, has been the charge
against him, and he has not denied IL.
The matter Of Mr.. Reads personal
habits has had little influence in bring
