THE REPTBLICAN ADDRESS.
The Republican National Committees sums
up the state Election held and APP
pcalS to the Country.

NEW YORK, oct. 19-rhe Republican
National committee have issued an adj
dress to the voters of the country as fol
lows:
The Republican National committee
halls the glorious victories already won as
the sure omen of Il greater victory close at
hand Vermont is still the star that never
sets. Maine, captured in 1850, rcbukcs the
Islander by plurality of 10000, Il gain
West Virginia in place of 1000 plurality
for Hancock. now falls below 1900, Il Re
publican gain of per cent and which
kindles the hope that the l53 votes of the
solid South" may be broken in NoVcm-
Der. But the result in Ohio is II revolu-
Democratic by l2.GOO and two years
ago by 10000 plurality, Ohio now
gives l2.0oo plurality for the lowest
Republican State candidate and on Ma
tional issues $1,000 for Republican Con
gressmcn. Holding the state and local
offices and the whole machinery of the
elections the Democrats scattered cOrrup-
ton money with II lavish hand, corrupted
voters, imported professional repeaters
and in spite of the most strenuous
efforts to enforce the law against
them, cast many thousands of fraud
ulcnt votes. Because of this power
they had chosen to stake all upon that
the result in November, and were strange
~ certain of success Local issues
led many voters To disregard Nation
al questions. Against such odds
the magnificent victory is the prophecy of
10000 plurality for Blaine and Logan lin
November and with the same ratio of gain
in other States il fOreShadowS an increase of
the 1Oo, 0O0in the Republican National vote
and largest popular majority ever given
any candidate. These victories show the
discriminatory f the people that as Lincoln,
Grant and Garfield were slandercd so
the foremost statesman of to-day shall not
be driven from the peoples work by the
tongue of malice. They show that the
Republican party, which the, first to resist
and uproot the dogma of perpetual allie
glance to foreign power, is chosen
by the nation to defend all rights
of American citizens abroad. They
show that the people will not aban
don the protection of American industry
under which the country has gained twice
as much in twenty years as it had gained
in all its previous history. Fhe address
closes with an eloquent appeal to Republi-
Ian voters.

Handsome Tribute to one of Ncrmont's
Most Eminent Sons.

lliruUklyn Union.
The reelection of Justin =. Morrill, to
the United States Senate 10y the Lcgisla-
turc of Vermont this week is one of the
most remarkable tributes to IL public ser
want ever paid in this country. The choice
of the same man for four consecutive
terms in the upper branch of Congress is
in itself, and under any circumstances, II
noteworthy event, which has few parallels
in our history. His election for Il six years
term which will not begin until he has
nearly completed his 18th year, is without
parallel.
There have been two cases where Il man
has been chosen to the Senate for five sue
CCSsiVc terms that of Benton in the first
half of the century and that of Anthony
in more recent years The MiSsOuIian
served out his thirty years, but the Rhode

fifth term But Benton was only IS
when he left the Senate and Anthony was
five years the junior of Morrill,
1t is thirty years ago this fall since Mr.
Morrill, was first sent to Washington as a
representative of Vermont i'm Congress.
He served in the House with great acCCp-
lance for "A dozen years, and in 1866 was
promoted to the Senate, being reelected
in 1872, 1873 and again this week. Six
years ago there was some opposition
to his reelection 10y the friends of Judge
Poland, on the ground of his age, and
much use was made of the PsalmiSt :
remark that "the days of our Years
are three score years and ten. But.
oddly time appears to have removed this
ground of complaints; at least we believe
that it has not been once advanced this
year. Indeed there has been no opposition
to his reelection among his own part Y

change place and William and Wall

second stand and VIM. Dowd at the third.
On the main stand Secretary Gresham
spoke first. He recounted the monetary
achievements of the Republican party in
the past twenty years, the reduction of
the debt, added confidence in the value of
our bonds in the marts of the world, the
fallacy of entrusting the tariff revision to
the Democracy and the general folly of
free trade until the United States could
control the markets of the world. He re-
! ferred to Mr.. Blaine's pledges to sustain
civil service reform and claimed that Gov
ernor Cleveland would not be able to carry
out any reformatory ideas, even if he had
them. Secretary Gresham was heartily
cheered.
Secretary Boutwell, was the next speaker

thrived. Vie dwelt upon the growth of
the country under Republican rule and
ridiculed Cleaveland's theory that the

Other speakers followed amid great en-
thusiasm. The vast crowd sang "Ameri

Double Taxation.
West Randolph Herald. ]

The Montpelier Journal has long edi-
torlal on the subject of taxing mortgages
in which the writer inclines to the present
system, He thinks that so much of the
time of the legislature is taken up at each
session in discussing this subject that
mortgages ought to be taxed to meet the
expense. Not to do this would be double
taxation. There is no end to some people 5
ingenuity when they have theory to
maintain. There is nothing palmer to our
mind than that some property i'll this
State is taxed twice and this is great in
justice, and one that the Legislature ought
to remove. Our idea is, mortgages should
be made real estate, and mortgage holders
should be made Joint owners in the pro-
perty-on which IA mortgage is held. Es-
cape the justice of such an arrangement
if you can

Can IA National Bank Oticer he II United
States Elector?

To the Editor of the Free Press and Times:
You allude in the FREE PRESS this
morning, to the election of the Hon. Hir-
am Harlow Is president of National
bank, Mr. Harlow being Il candidate ON
the Republican Electoral ticket, and to Il
doubt as To the consistency of holding
both Offices, under the laws of the United
States. The same question came up in
the state of New York III the election of
1850 Three of the Republican candidates,
Hon Edward Morgan. Mr.. John !. Aston
and one in the western part of the State
were directors in National banks. Acting
under the advice of the National and state
committees supported by the opinions of
eminent counsel, they resigned their
directOrShipS, and the same course was
adopted in other States.
Senator Edmunds's opinion is possibly
correct but is it not in so important Il
trust more safe to avoid all question, or
doubt. rs has been done in other States
IE &. b. CANNON, Elector in 1850.
ONerlake, Burlington Oct. 18th.
The safest course would seem to be
clearly the wiSest in Il case of this import
ance. If the question can he raised wheth-
er II National bank officer is eligible as an
elector, 1t is reason enough as it seems to
us, why Mr.. Harlow should resign his
bank dictatorship and presidency, till
after the election. As he is himself very
sensible and careful man, wepresume that
he will take this course.
