Papers like the Rutland Herald and
Lowell Courier, and others, may scOff
and jecr at the "snivel" service reform
ers, but such decisions as that given by
Judge Wallace in the Gen. Curtis case
is worth more to civil service reform
than "A column of invective. Gentle

1t is of course needless to say that
the result is highly satisfactory. The
eminent ability, experience and sagac-
ity of the nominee is as widely known
as the nation, and his fitness for the
position acknowledged by every one.
1t is IA matter of no small qualification
that Judge Poland has been vindica-
ted, and that too by the very men who
six years ago needlessly and without
cause, raised Il fictitious issue against
him and caused his defeat. Although
public sentiment had long ago vindica-
ted him, it is well to have the express
sion made in some more tangible form.
OF the details of the convention we
have but little data. The Judge was
nominated by Col. Buttertield of Wind
ham county, and seconded by Dean of
Cavendish, Stowe of Chelsea, ex-Gov.
Fairbanks of st. Johnsbury and others.
Gen. Grout was nominated by l.. H..
Thompson of lrasburg, and seconded
by Hugh IL. Henry, Prouty of New
port, Gen. Thomas and others.
OF the details of the ballot we have
no advices, except that Caledonia
county gave 43 votes for Poland and
u for Grout, Essex county ID for PO-
land and 3 for Grout. There was no
animosity among the Poland delegates
against Grout, but it was fairly under
stood in this County, that Grout was
their second choice, and if Caledonia
county could not nominate Poland,
every man was for GrOut.
We believe there is the utmost good
feeling towards Gen. Grout throughout
the district, as there should be. He is
the best representative Vermont has
had in Congress since Judge Poland
was retired. Had not the state been
redistricted, he would have been re-
nominated without opposition but
the Second district, into which Gen
Grout is now thrown, contains but a
fraction of his old district. and there
did not seem the obligation resting
upon the new to return him that
would have been felt by the old
Gen. Grout is a worthy person, and q
young man who will grow; and the
only regret that many will feel at the
return TO Congress of Judge Poland
will be the defeat of Gen. Grout.
