" Help Those Wemen."

Mr. Editor viii you allow one Of your
constant readers to address you on a subject
In which every one must be deeply interested
who has any regard for the morals OF the COM
munity, or the honor of our state q? | am en-
boldened to come to you in this matter, for you
have proved that you can stand firmly for what
you think is right, when opposed by the
strongest majority and your own pecuniary
interest And because Of this, and other proofs
OF your love for the right, when in your paper
you have at any time named, or given favor
able mention Of, candidates for Office who were
known to be men Of immoral character, we
have accounted for 1t. by your being COMPARE
lively stranger. Everyone who cares in the
least for the welfare OF the community feels
the wrong done when unclean men are held up
for office. But there Is a class-the mothers
who are 80 interested that everything seems at
stake. 1t is life and death to them. What of
these mothers so keenly alive to every adverse
influence TO the dear ones they are holding 80
closely and lovingly in their arms? What
counts their work Of years. what counts their
prayers and tears, If, on their reluctantly
yielding up their sons to the worlds work,
these sons first shocking lesson set them to
learn. is, how dishonor is honored Oh! Is
not this the deepest wrong to every true man
and woman =? And what of the children who
live In the moral atmosphere where it is posi-
bic to give premium to immortality? Mr..
Editor,-help us mothers, that our ife's work
NAV not be all undone. Help us to teach our
children that men, II they hope for places Of
honor and trust, must be worthy of the same,
and that man, who Ia blinded to the I'M
cleanness OF bestial sins and dishonors himself
cannot bring honor (which he has not), but
dishonor to any position the higher the posi-
ton the more conspicuous his moral deformity
and unhtness. Help, that our state may never

gentlemen of the most honorable reputa-
ton for their services in behalf of civil
service reform, that should make the ears
of every Vermonter Jingle for shame.
The remarks of two gentlemen in the
state-both loyal to the dominant political
party and both high in counsels--one
holding high Office at the present time,
come into mind. They were made about
the time of the last election and to the ef-
feet that the present political manage
ment had got to go soon. 1t is no reply
to this to say that other states are as bad
or worse. Vermont should be better and
can be, and that is enough for one who
loves his state as he should. A few Wig
orous protests against wrong, made on
the merits of the case and openly acknowl-
edged, will not be in vain either. Men
have come to the conclusion that it is
time to speak openly and plainly.

CONGRESS assemblies next Monday.
The preliminary interest centers in the
contest between the democratic aspirants
for the speakership. The real contestants
are Randall of Pennsylvania and Carlisle
of Kentucky, with the mercurial Sunset
Cox for breezy third. Randall is the
candidate of the mum's-the-word element
in the party, which appreciates the need
of stout brakeman at this point in the
presidential race, and which from past
experience has wholesome fear of the
mischief slack lower jaw may work in
the democratic outlook. This element
trusts in Randall's power to control his
rampant party friends. Carlisle is the
candidate of the revenue reformers who
believe in re-opening the tariff revision,
and have strong free trade tendencies,
while Randall and his friends believe in
letting things alone till after the pres
idential election is over. Each gives
good reason for his belief that defeat will
overtake the party if he is not elected,
and this being about the real state of
things the contest is, on the part of the
republicans, the old conventional fight
between the man and the bear, from the
woman's point of view.

The mention of the name of Frederick
Billings anywhere in Vermont never fails
to evoke enthusiasm. Wherever he is
known he is the object Of spontaneous
tributes of esteem and admiration, the
homage which men pay, and honor them
selves in paying, to brilliant talents
united with generous impulses, noble
nature and a chivalrous spirit. Mr.. Bill
ings is loyal Vermonter, born in the
state, educated in her schools and grad.
uate of her university. He attracted at
tention as young man of unusual
promise and won popular esteem by his
graces of mind and character. He sought
his fortunes in the infant city by the
Golden Gate and in the practice of the
legal profession there amassed fortune.
Returning to the old hearthstone in the
maturity of his manhood he has devoted
his wealth literally to the moral and ma
terial welfare of Vermont people. His
abilities, his enterprise, his achievements,
have made him known from the Atlantic
to the Pacific coast. Eoquence, patriot.

high moral character grace the more rug

Obituary..

PUTNAM.-Thankful B. Putnam was born in
the town OF Springfield, Vermont, in 1908. She
died near Moravia, Iowa, October 6, 1888 In
the year 1888 she was married to John g. Put
nam. The newly married couple moved to
Montpelier, Vt, where they we're engaged In
farming till near the year 1868 In this year
they moved to and purchased farm three
miles west of Moravia. While on their farm
in Vermont Mr.. and Mrs. Putnam had FIVE sons
born to them, whom they reared to manhood.
They are noble men in society, and Justly the
pride Of the parents. ]. Abram, a successful
farmer In our county, with whom and his ex-
cellent companion, father and mo her Putnam
have long had pleasant home; the next son,
Isaac, WAS first lieutenant In the late Rebellion
He served three years and was killed at the
battle OF the Wilderness In Virginia. Another
son, jacob H., Is highly esteemed and sue
cessiul physician and surgeon at Rutland, VT.
While living ON the farm In Vermont Mrs. Put
nam joined and was consistent and Jealous
member OF the Universalist society. 1t may
be truthfully said, judging from her fruits,
that she was good woman. Always gentle,
kind and loving, she was loved by all who
formed her acquaintance. She died as she
lived-in firm belief of blissful immortality
Among the many Christian expressions OF her
last days Is the following For to me to live
IL Christ, and to die is gain" philippians l.:
~ The funeral services were conducted by
the writer, and the body was laid away in the

children And may Mother Putnam's virtues

from the Centerville, Ia, Citizen OF October

Governor BegOIe OF Michigan.

Mr.. Editor In your editorial, Drift
Wood" Of November 2ist, think you do
Governor Begole Of Michigan great uninten-
tonal injustice, In accusing him Of inconsis-
tency upon the subject Of railroad passes, as
the following editorial from late issue of the
Echo, a leading independent paper of Detroit
will show:
The extracts enclosed by our correspondent
are too long to be given entire. The Echo re-
cites the case against the governor as published,
admits that the letters autographed copies of
which were published by the Post and Tribune,
make strong prima facie case against the
governor, but claims that they are not entirely
fair. The Echo then explains in the following
extracts. ED. WATERMAN
Mr. Begole was, long before he became
governor, and Is still, very heavy shipper Of
lumber on the Pere Marquette and other Mich
igan roads 1t Is the custom Of nearly all roads
to furnish these pass books to shippers, in
some cases at a nominal charge, and in the
cases Of the heaviest shippers without any
charge whatever. In neither case was any OBJ
legation Whatsoever incurred. 1t was pure
matter OF business between the shipper and
the railroad concerned. When Mr.. Begole be-
came governor, he did not cease to be a ship
per, nor did he lose because OF his Office the
rights he held 10 the capacity Of shipper In
the latter capacity, he had always received the
pass books, and he continued to receive them
in the same capacity after he became gov
ernor. 1t might have been better II
Mr.. Begole had not mixed up, in the first letter
OF December 1, 1882, his request for his rights
as shipper and his admonitions as reform
governor, and IL he had also expressly stated
that 1t 1t was In his capacity as a shipper that
he asked for the little red book" But the
governor has never been conspicuous as an in
genous or eloquent letter writer, and his blum
der in mixing up these two matters may be
charitably excused on the score OF his literary
incapacity. The governor, however,
should always remember that reform governors
who make a profession OF superior virtue
should, like C8sars wife, be above suspicion 4"
The writer knows Governor Begole person.
ally. He is an honorable, upright business
man and, notwithstanding his defective Or
biography, the republican party is responsible
for whatever political prominence he possesses
Under republican nominations he has been
elected county treasurer-two terms each to
the house and senate of the Michigan legisla-
ture and once as representative in congress.
He was nominated by the republicans a second
time for congress and defeated by his own
party Of which the writer was one who for the
first and last time In his life then voted for q
democrat to congress.
Governor Begole espoused greenbackism and
was elected governor on coalition ticket by
the aid Of a large number of republican votes
On the whole we think Michigan is about as
proud OF her present governor as of his more
literary republican predecessor, whom his own
party assisted in retiring under dsapproval.

Thanksgiving.

The annual Thanksgiving is just before
us. Its chief significance to us of New
England is that it is home festival. 1t
is the home as the place of reunion, and
the center of joy and thankfulness that
gives such glad and sacred meaning to
the day. The children enter into it with
all that zest which belongs only to child
hood. 1t is an unbroken round of pleas.
ure to their fresh and youthful hearts.
Clouds have not yet come to shadow their
lives or if they have come, they have
quickly passed away, and sunshine now
fills all their sky. Thanksgiving is q
very happy day to most New England
children. To the older members of the
home, the day is fraught with memories.
Every scene of present enjoyment, the
plays and shining faces of the children,
carry the parents back to scenes which
can never be repeated, where faces now
no longer seen once beamed with gladness,
where voices now forever silent once rang
with laughter. And yet the day even for
such parents has its blessed grace and
benediction. There are broken links in
the golden chain of the family, but they
are not lost, God keeps them. Time
takes from grief its bitterness. There are
sorrows which become tender and sacred
and sweet. And so Thanksgiving is not
without softened joy to hearts that have
been we'll nigh broken. There are mer-
cies in almost any grief which call for
Thanksgiving. And in most households
there will be greetings of those who have
been long or far separated. And there
will be cheer and plenty at the board, and
song and play by the Preside. The shouts
of children will be heard. Father and
mother will catch the contagion of glad
ness. Old age will put off its seriousness,
and all will be young again. 1t is we'll,
only if there mingle in all this hilarity
and tender feeling, gratitude to God for
his unnumbered mercies; only if in all
this Astounding cheer and plenty, there has
been a remembrance of the poor. No
Thanksgiving can be either grateful or
happy that has not been made the occa-
sion for the expression of our pities and
sympathies. The consciousness that we
have in some way made the day brighter
day for others will greatly add to our own
enjoyment, and will make our Thanks
giving acceptable to God.
