Vermont phÅ“nix. [volume] (Brattleboro, Vt.) 1834-1955, 1884-11-07

The question has often been raised since
Tuesday whether our very peculiar Vermont
law, which gives voters the privilege Of voting
for President at any polling place in the
state. is not both dangerous and an unjust
one. The provisions about registration are
very strict and no man can vote in his own
town whose name is not on the list, but he
can go to any other town and vote by simply
being identified by some one, or by taking an
oath that he is voter. In Brattleboro on
Tuesday two or three old residents lost their
votes because they were not registered, but
there was nothing to prevent these same men
from going to some other town and voting
with nothing said about registration. The
intent of the law is good, but it gives abund-
ant chance for fraud, and if Vermont was
"close" state it would not be allowed to stand
on the statute book. As it is we think 1t
should be changed.

Mr.RIainninnn.tnn

Last Saturday Mr. Blaine paid a prom
ised visit to Hartford and New Haven. Conn,
and WAS welcomed by immense crowds at
every stopping place. Great enthusiasm over
his presence Was everywhere manifested.
Sunday Mr. Blaine remained quietly in New
York and on Monday went to Boston, where
at & ?. NJ he was entertained at banquet at
the Brunswick, and Immediately afterward
reviewed a Blaine aud Logan procession with
1900 men 10 line. Tuesday morning he
started for his home in Augusta, reaching
there in season to vote. 10 his speech after
the dinner in Boston Mr.. Blaine for the first
time alluded to the reasons which led him to
enter personally into the canvass. What be
said about this was the following
Il have never offered any apology or e1-
PLANTATION for taking what some of my closet
friends regarded as an extraordinary step in
going before the people, somewhat more free
ly and extendedly than has been the habit OF
those chosen as the Presidential candidates
OF great parties. But will say now that
did it-and desire to put this on record
did it because l thought that the peculiar
character Of the canvass was my personal
justification for doing it. l am a profound
believer in a popular government, and know
no reason why / should not face the Am.
erican people. l did it, too, for the more
ger of the great leading questions which re-
lated to the industrial aud protective system
of America being partially, or perhaps Who'll
ly, excluded from that consideration by the
people which its merits deserved, and entrust-
ed as l was with the great function of repre-
sentiug you and all the members Of the Re
publican party, l felt that l would in an es-
pecal degree myself obtain a hearing
have returned somewhat weary, somewhat
broken in voice, as your ears have already de-
tected, but have returned with even a more
profound belief than l had in the Judgment,
in the fairness, in the impartiaiiIy, in the
generosity Of the great mass of American
citizenship, and go to my home to. morrow
not without strong confidence in the result
of the ballot, but with heart that shall moi
in the least degree be troubled by any YER
dict that may b. returned by the great Amer.
lean people. For l have in my entire can
vass uncousciously and completely, lost sight
of myself aud of Ehatever personal fortune
l have at stake in far greater and far grand
or and far more enduring issue which for the
time | was submitting TO popular judgment

THE LEGISLATURE

Two or three bills of some importance
were presented in the House last Friday be-
fore adjournment over to Wednesday OF this
week. DR.. ConlRnd introduced a bill for a
license liquor Law which is substantially the
same as that introduced by A. p. Childs of
Bennington at the session of 1882. 1t is a
high license law With a local option clause,
copied after the laws Of Massachusetts and
Connecticut.
Mr., Henry of Chester introduced bill pro-
viding that every town Of over 1900 popula-
ton and grand list of over $40 900 shall
establish central high school of not less than
three departments on and after FIRST Tuesday
Of March, 1885, and defining manner of es-
adjustment. Mr., Henry also introduced a
bill to increase our state militia force. This
bill increases the number of companies from
IL to l6 and the number Of batteries from
one to two, and provides for the purchase of
two Calling guns and the leasing of land for
permanent parade ground for seven years.

BrattIebOrO's Vote.

The vote cast in Brattleboro last Tuesday
was the largest in the towns history. In
1880 the vote was surprisingly large, being
1912 Republican and 2S3 Democratic-a to-
tai of 1925 On Tuesday this total was ex-
ceeded by &c votes, the whole number of votes
cast being 1921. In 1880 1903 out of-town
votes were cast this year the number was
(Which shows 1929 Brsttleboro votes in
1880 and 1912 this year. The result Of the
vote on Tuesday was no less sore dsappoint-
ment to the Democrats than pleasant sur
prise to the Republicans. The Democratic
boast has been that in November the real size
of the Republican protest against Blaine
would be seen, and confident predictions were
made that the Republican majority would be
wiped out The result shows that, while in
September the combined Democratic and hide
pendent vote was 5O4, in November the COM
bined Democratic and St. John vote only
reached 500, while the Republican vote was
carried from G9i in September to $50 in No
vember careful examination of the list of
out-of-town votes cast on Tuesday convinces
experienced politicians that more than one
half of them we're cast for the Democratic
ticket. Call the number so, which is too low
an estimate, and we have Brattleboro's Dem
ocratic vote reduced to 5l2, or about the pro-
portions of the September vote. The fact is
that the hopes and predictions of the Demo-
Gratis and Independents were far from fulfilled
1t is also fact that Republican party still
exists in Brattleboro in very active condi-
ton, and all ready for stand up fight when
ever occasion offers.

s.ates In doubt or not heard from.
The Republican National Committee
Declare Blaine Elected.

The Republican National Committee
Declare Blaine Elected.
The following address was issued by the
Republican National Committee yesterday af-
ternoon about half past o'clock
NEW York, Nov. C.
The Republican National Committee re-
joices that the returns now received warrant
it in announcing the triumphant election Of
Blaine and Logan. The Republicans have
carried every northern state except New Jer-
sey and Connecticut. Virginia seems also to
have given a majority for the Republican
cause and ticket and there is probability
that West Virginia has also; while other
southern states are still in doubt. The north
ern states alone, however, give to Blaine and
Logan 233 electoral votes, and insure their
election.
In New York attempts to tamper with the
returns have already been detected. The act
ual vote cast in New York city, Kings county
and ], Sj2 other election precincts gave st the
utmost only l4S plurality TO Grover Cleve-
land while the 1863 precincts not yet heard
from gave 2,171 plurality to Garfield. There
is therefore no ground for doubt that the hon
est vote of the state has been given to the
Republican candidates and though the de-
feated candidate for the Presidency is at the
head Of the election machinery in this state,
the DeulOcrauc party Wnlch mas notoTlouely
been the party of fraud in elections for years
will not be permitted to thwsrt the will Of
the people. The National Republican Com
mittee calls on the chsirmen and the individ-
ual members Of all county committees to take
the promptest and most stringent means to
protect the sanctity of the ballot.
The Republican candidates have been hon
estly elected beyond question. Any attempt
to cheat the people and to defeat their will
thus expressed at the polls must be sternly
exposed and resisted by every law-respectng
citizen. B. F. JONES, Chairman.
SAMUEL FEssESDEN, Clerk.
The Republican State committee also issue
an address in which they say that, "While
the vote is very close, the returns and esti-
mates from the most authentic sources justi-
| fly the belief that the people Of this State
have cast plurality in favor of the Republi-
can candidates"
! The New York board of supervisors meet
next Tuesday TO begin the official canvass Of
votes in the several counties.
| Both the Democratic aud Republican can
didates claim to be confident Of the victory,
and both agree that no fraud will be tolerated.
