This has been an important week,
from political point of view. Aside
from the Vermont election, the Con
necticut democrats on Tuesday renom-

inson and his associates on the state
ticket, with cx-Gov. Talbot and Rev.
DIR. Hopkins for delegates at large.
The Bay state democrats yesterday
nominated Judge Endicott for COVER
nor and Jonas II. French and Reuben
Noble for delegates at large.

If anything were needed to convince
the skeptical republican that the omis-
sion of Senator Edmunds to say good
word for Mr.. Blaine was because he
had no good word to say, it is furnish
ed in the fact that he took the prccau-
ton to commit what he had to say to
writing, and in its delivery confined
himself strictly to his manuscript,
showing that his remarks were care
fully made and deliberately uttered,
and that he was actuatcd 10y fear
that he might, in extemporaneous
speech, say something he would re-
greet having said. Another significant
fact is that the senator rarely uses
manuscript for an off hand occasion
like this. The Springfield Republican
thinks that perhaps the Vermont re
publicans will remember next time to
''let sleeping dogs lie"

SOMETHING TO WORK FOR.

If the Free Press thinks a speech of
300 words which does not mention
Blaine is such boost to his canvass,
how much does it imagine a speech or
letter of thirty words, saying that Sen
ator Edmunds regards Blaine as a man
of untarnished integrity i'll every way
fit to be president, would be WORTH
Why doesn't the Burlington editor try
to get such an utterance9 1t would be
worth a first class consulate to him if
Blaine is elected.-[Springfield Repub-
lican.

Under the operations of the law pro-
hibiting forced assessment of Office
holders for campaign purposes, the re-
publicans are having much trouble
to raise the large sums required for
corruption purposes. The "voluntary
contributions" do not fill the Golfers as
fast rs they are empticd, and Chairman
Clapp. of the national republican
financial committee, issues an intima-
ton of political decapitation if the
necessary funds are not forthcoming.

Taking Care OF Silver Plate.

The amount OF sterling silver plate in
use in this city is astonishing and il is
often subject OF wonder as to how all
these riches are taken care Of. Some OF
the services in use, notably that of vii.
liam Astor, are most elaborate in design,
the separate pieces being works of art in
themselves and call for special attention
for care and cleaning Many OF the
wealthy families leave II standard order
with the prominent silyersmiths to keep
their plate in order. Some families in
this city haye table service and plate
valued in single instances from $50 600
to $500, 900, many pieces having been
handed down from generations, which,
with the constant additions which
fashion demands, serve to keep these
table decorations always on the increase.
The finest collections, however, are not
found among the families Of the richer
millionaires. Many families who have
not hundredth part OF Mr.. Vanderbilt
wealth, have much finer silver services
Mr.. Vanderbilt, in fact, has very small
showing in this line. His fancy is china.
