Question OF Larger Than Party
Interest.

The Vermont Chronicle, in recent
issue, fittingly pointed out that in state
where parties are so unequally divided as
in Vermont, nomination for governor
by the party in power is equivalent to an
election, and for that reason that the Sc
lection of candidate by that party is not
matter simply of party interest. but be-
comes of general concern to those who
are interested in the well-being of the
state. 1t is this fact, we suppose, that
explains and justifies the extraordinary
anxiety of our democratic neighbor, the
Argus and Patriot, that the republican
party shall not nominate for governor one
who is, from its point of view, such a
disreputable member of society as Fred
erick Billings, and that moves The Chron-
icle, on the other hand, which forms a
different estimate of that gentleman, to
The Vermont watchman. [volume] (Montpelier, Vt.) 1883-1911, 1884-01-23

suppose that its readers of all political
opinions will regard with satisfaction the
favorable mention which has been made
of Mr.. Billings name. We do not deny
that democratic, partisan paper has q
solid interest in the selection of repub-
lican candidate for governor, and we
recognize much more that the interests
for which religious paper stands, may
lead it to have concern in the same.
By all means, let every interest in the
state express itself freely as to its prefer
ences, and the ground of them, and the
outcome of il will be the selection of that
candidate who most accurately represents
the average wish of the public. We hold
that the people of Vermont by an over
whelming majority, if their sentiments
can be got at, are a political community
which desires to be represented by man
of the type of Mr.. Billings. The fact
that the readers of The Chronicle enter
tain such desire goes, so far forth, to con.
firm our opinion. The fact that the ar.
gus and Patriot opposes him strengthens
it much more. 1t remains to be seen II
the voice of the people can find express
sion, and if it can, whether it will indi
cate any change in the sound heart Of
| the state

THE reactionary work of the Ohio
democratic senatorial caucus was rsti-
fed Tuesday, the 18th instant, by the
election of Henry B. Payne to succeed
George H. Pendleton, whose term will ex-
pire March 8, 1885. If Mr.. Payne lives
out his senatorial term he will be an octo-
genarian at its expiration in 1891. The
action of the Ohio democrats and of the
New York democratic state department
officers in facing backwards in the matter
of just and reasonable regulation of the
civil service of state or the nation, is
supplemented by the introduction by
democrats in the national house of repre-
sentatives of two bills for the repeal of the
civil service act passed year ago. The
action of the Ohio democrats is sharply
criticised by the honest and outspoken
press of that party in different parts of
the Union. Some emphatic press notes
of this character were printed in The
Waterman last week. The following
from the Louisville Courier Journal is a
sample of further expression of demo-
cratic sentiment: "Mr. Payne's nomina-
ton is the result of the most corrupt con-
spiracy ever organized in this country; and
was comprised by the most extravagant
use of money known to the Legislative
history of any state in the Union"

THE steamer City OF Columbus OF the Savan-
nah line OF steamers, which left Boston the
18th, went ashore on DEVILS Bridge at Gay
head, Martha's Vineyard, and ninety seven
lives were lost. The following is Cap
tain S. E. Wright's statement: "The City
of Columbus left Boston at three p. M. on
Thursday, the 18th. At fifteen minutes of four
A. M, on Friday, Gayhead light bearing south
half east, the vessel struck on the outside Of
DEVILS Bridge buoy. The wind was blowing a
gale, west by north The vessel Immediately
filled and heeled over, the water breaking in
and flooding the port side OF the saloon. All
the passengers excepting few women and
children came ON deck, nearly all wearing life
preservers All the boats were cleared away,
but Immediately swamped. The majority OF
the passengers were washed overheard. Seven
passengers left the vessel on life raft and
about forty more took to the rigging" The
City of Columbus had fifty-nine first-class and
twenty-five steerage passengers, about one
third of whom were ladies and children, and a
crew of forty-five Ffty-four first-class and fl
teen steerage passengers and twenty-eight OF
the officers and crew were lost She was one OF
the finest vessels on the coast and was built in
1878 by John Roach g. Son at Chester, Pa She
was built of iron and thoroughly equipped and
was rated for one hundred years. She was

Mr.. Billings Declines.
The following letter explains itself;
267 MADISON AVENUE,
NEW YORK, January 18. 1884


Hon. James Barrett Rutland Vermont
Ny Dear Sir In reply to your very kind
letter, beg to say, have noticed that several
papers Of the state, with illusions to myself
altogether too hattering, have prominently
connected my name with the next gubernato-
rial election. 1t is hardly modest for a man to
decline an office before it is rendered, yet
trust may be pardoned in saying thus early.
am not a candidate and have not the slightest
desire for any political office whatever and can
not under any circumstances allow my name to
be used In connection with the gubernatorial
nomination.
Aside from my own feelings in the matter
there would be, II not an improperly, GER
tainly great inconvenience, In putting man
in that office who for business purposes and
education OF children, has his winter residence
here in New York. The time of the governor
belongs to the state, and though the work of
his Office is very moderate, he can find many
ways outside of his strictly technical du-
ties to promote the interests and good name
of the commonwealth. In this respect, and
in all respects, governor would be much
more useful and the office much more hon.
orable, II we could get rid Of the one
term rule. II that rule is to be insisted on so
long as the governor Is elected for two years,
why not change the constitution and get back
to annual elections? Then the governor hold
ing office for two years would have the oppor-
tunity of two legislatures for carrying out any
Now the governor meets a legislature whose
members, like himself, are generally elected
for one term, and when the next legislature
meets he goes out of office. This cheapens the
executive place and exposes the state to crude
legislation.
When the constitutional change was made,
| thought 1t a wise one; but, under the work
ing of the biennial system, the old way was
better, and shall be glad when the people OF
Vermont, divided by the Green Mountain
range, and not coming together often enough
again send up their representatives to the Cap
itol every year. And then shall be still more
glad If, in filling high offices, they will alto
gether forget the mountain range, think never
of locality but only of worth and fitness, and
never be in haste to make changes when worth
and fitness are found.
Thanking you and all other friends most
heartily for kind expressions,
am, sincerely yours
FREDERICK BILLINGS

where knew, as we'll as those who have the
confidence of Mr.. Edmunds know, what
broad, wise and splendid measures of ma
tional development would be certain to
receive an impetus If Mr.. Edmunds we're
made the next president. What pity it
is that the voters of the country cannot
secure the election of such man without
waiting on the schemes aud interests of a
few scores of politicians, who control the
machines and who may prevent the nom.
ination of Mr.. Edmunds or of any man
who is thoroughly satisfactory to the
country. The friends of Mr.. Edmunds
should take fresh courage from his slightly
changed attitude, which makes him more
prominent in council and in management
and which tends to bring him the support
of active party workers who have hitherto
held aloof.n

FOrty-Eighth Congress.

TUESDAY, January 15.-The senate discussed
the Anthony resolution regarding retaliatory
legislation by the United States to meet the ex-
clusion Of healthful American meats from for
eign countries, but reached no decision. The
Mexican reciprocity treaty was debated at
length in executive session. Bills, resolu-
tons and memorials were presented in the
house, and the bill appropriating 81, 900 600 for
continuing the improvement of the Mississippi
river was discussed at considerable length in
committee of the whole.
WEDNESDAY, January 16-The senate passed
Mr.. Hoar's electoral count bill without debate.
The new joint rules, slightly amended, were
adopted, and the Mexican reciprocity treaty
was further discussed in executive session. Z. .
The Mississippi river appropriation bill was
discussed in committee of the whole and re-
ported back to the house. Final action, how
ever, was not reached.
THURSDAY, January lin the senate, a
communication was received from ex-senator
Kellogg of Louisiana, denying that he accepted
bride for accelerating the passage Of the
Texas Pacific railroad land grant bill and ask
ing for an investigation of the charges, The
Mexican reciprocity treaty debate was contn-
ued in executive session and will be closed at
four o'clock this afternoon. The house passed
the bill appropiating 100000 for continuing
the work of improvement on the Mississippi
river by a vote of two hundred and fifteen to
sixty-four. Bills amending the patent laws
and making all public roads and highways
post-routes were passed.
FRIDAY January 18.-In the senate, the com.
mittee on foreign relations reported favorably
the bill prohibiting the importation of opium
into the United States from China, and its ex-
portation from this country to China. A vote
was reached on the Mexican reciprocity treaty,
and it was rejected thirty-nine to twenty, not
the necessary two-thirds An adjournment
was taken until Monday. -. The house in COM
mittee Of the whole discussed the Fitz-Jobn
Porter bill.
SATURDAY, January 19.-The senate was not
in session. The session of the house was de-
voted exclusively to a debate on the Fitz-John

WE publish to-day letter from Fred
erick Billings declining to be candidate
for the governorship at the next election.
Vermonters will hardly be willing to &C.
cept as final the reasons he gives why
he should not be governor of the state
We believe that hopes and expectations
have been excited among the people by
the mention of his name in connection
with the chief executive office, which will
not be easily relinquished, and shall not
be surprised if his letter is followed by a
loud and imperative call from the voters
to be their standard bearer, in spite of his
scruples, in the coming canvass. He is
Vermonter enough to maintain his cit
izenship in spite of powerful interests
elsewhere, to yearn for the elevation and
advancement of the state in all her inter-
ests and to contribute by speech, influence
and princely works to the object of his
patriotic desires. 1t is early yet to settle
upon the personality of the candidate.
When that time is fully come, If events
and circumstances shall clearly point to
Mr.. Billings as the man after the peoples
own heart, we trust that they will call
him and that his answer will be Here
am l." Mr.. Billings remarks in relation
to the mountain and rotation rules should
arrest the thoughtful attention of the
state.
