JUDGE POLAND WITHDRAWS.


Judge Poland has published an
open letter in which he implicitly
withdraws from the field as candl-
date for re- nomination to congress.
He refers to his age, his long public
service and the very arduous duties
of the office, and the fact that the re-
suit of the republican convention had
not been exactly what was desired
by the republicans of Vermont, as
being reasons why he should not seek
the office longer. He speaks of his
faithfulness as public officer, the
honors that have been bestowed upon
him and the desire that he has to spend
the remainder of his days in his quiet
home, in the state of his nativity.
This graceful withdrawal from can
vass that might have been somewhat
heated, and, in that event, unpleas-
ant to Mr.. Poland, will tend to soften
the asperities, if there are any, that
grew out of things of the past, and
the Judge will be remembered for his
fidelity to the interests of the state
and his brilliant record in every pub
lie sphere. He has made a record Oh
the bench and in congress that vii
reflect credit on Vermont, and hi
name will find place on the histori
cal page along side many of the names
that we delight to honor.

his availability, perhaps Butler. We
do not know how it may look, but at
present we shall take our chances
with the republican nominees. Let
it not be understood that we insinuate
or believe that we are adopting what
apparently is a great evil to save
greater. We believe that James O.
Blaine will give the country a wise
and brilliant administration. Those
who have doubts about it should
carefully look at the matter from a
high standpoint, while they carefully
investigate the things that have
given them adverse feelings towards
one or both candidates. The air is
full of political calumny in election
periods, and the man who has stand
ing which makes him the superior or
the rival of any in his own party, is
subject to the envy of his rivals and
the abuse of his political enemies.
The sound endorsement of neighbors,
townsmen, associates weighs more
in cur mind in considering character
than all things else. The emphatic
endorsement of Mr.. Blaine 10y neigh
bors, by his pastor, his church, his
associates, will stand a long time be-
fore it will be overthrow by a par
tisan investigation committee, politi-
cal enemies, or newspaper SANDER.

WASHINGTON, June "a. General
Henderson. Chairman of the Nation
al Republican Committee, who has
arrived here to notify Gen. Logan of
his nomination, says that he found
Mr. Blaine in fine spirits and confident
of the future. He adds: sin my
opinion MI. Blaine will receive a
larger majority in Maine than it ever
has given for a Republican candidate
for twenty years, First, Blaine will
get the votes of people who wouldn't
have voted for him but for the oppo-
sition of a certain class of so-called
Republicans second, he viii capture
most of the Irish votes and third, /

combinations, which will result in his
favor"

friends are going to Chicago to de
mand his nomination at the hands OF
the Democrats. OF course, the latter
will not touch him. In this almost
contingency Butler may run for gov

and that of his friends will be thrown
in favor Of Blaine and against thu

The RefolW1er says that there is
considerable of a sentiment among
Windham county democrats against
the license plank in their platform,
and that scattering vote will be lost
all over the state for the same reason,
but it relies upon ''Redington's vim
and progressive position on all state
issues" to more than make up for
this detection. The Vermont democ-
racy cannot lose very much of scat
tering vote and have anything left.

REPUBLICAN CANDIDATES.

Mr.. EDITOR, i would like to ex-
press through your paper my great
satisfaction in the nominations made
at Chicago, by the republicans. No
two men in the country would have
pleased me better as nominees for
the two great offices. In my judge
ment they have no superiors in talent
or legislative experience. They are
both Christian gentlemen and strict
temperance men. The democrats III
congress did their best to blacken
the reputation of Mr. Blaine, but he
met his accusers face to face and 81
fenced them. A democratic lawyer
of this state, after having heard the
assailants of Mr.. Blaine in the House
of Representatives and his reply in
answer. said to us, 'sBlaine annihil-
ated the whole of his accusers he is
the greatest man in this nation. . 1t
is very surprising to me that any re-
publican, especially in Vermont,
should 90 back on the ticket. Is it
because they are disappointed be-
cause Mr.. Edmunds was not nolnina-
ted? If so it looks childish in them
to use their influence against such
worthy candidates. They received
the fairest nomination by the conven-
ton, and there was no dissenting
vote when the motion was made to
make the nomination unanimous. |
do not see how some of the republic
ans of this state can justify their
course in opposing the ticket. If
there is any man who, from q belief
that either of the nominees is not
what he ought to be, or from any
prejudice against them, who cannot
as he now looks at it, vote the ticket.
cannot for the life of me see what
good will result to him or his party
by putting his arguments into The
mouths of his enemies. No true re
publican wishes to put the control o
the nation into the hands of the dem
ocrats, or believes that such chang
would be desirable. What folly, wha
stupidity is shown in the course of
few republican editors in this state
E while they are not great in their par
ty they will be nothing outside of it
: and when election comes round it Wi
be shown that Vermonters have no
f been weighed in the balances an
! found wanting" The people her
r are loyal, and they will weigh we
!, and consider long before they abar
o don the grand old party that has don
II SO much for the nation and humanit
in the last twenty-five years. aa

CONsCIENTIOUSLY OPPOSED

1t is useless to deny the fact that
there are some men in every town
that are cOnscientiously opposed to
Blaine and Logan as candidates of
their party. Just what the causes
are that have created their convic-
lions we care not to discuss, but we
feel that it is as unjust, as it is I'M
wise, to impugn their motives. If
they are wrong and their bases have
not mastered their judgments, when
they come to fully investigate the
matters which have put them in OPP
position to the candidates, they will
be glad to change their opinions and
will be found voting with their party;
if they become more firmly convinced
that there are faults in the lives or
the records of one or both of the
candidates that make them unfit for
the proposed places, it is their duty
to withhold their votes. For our own
part we intend to do just this.
We can here say, however, that
for at least twenty years we have been
interested in the career of Mr.. Blaine,
and have watched his doings, read
his speeches, considered the charges
and criticisms against him, and some
how and some way have come to have
a strong admiration for his qualities
and strong faith in his integrity.
Hence, down deep in orr bones and
marrow there has been 4 Blaine sem
timent which we have never tried to
create or destroy. 1t is there along
side of our esteem for Mr.. Edmunds,
Senator Sherman, Gen. Hawley aat
others, and when his nomination came
as it came, except that we were dis
appointed in the loss of Edmund
and a little fearful that Mr.. Blain
was not the strongest man, we wer
abundantly satisfied. Hence we hav
given, and can give our hearty an
earnest support TO the ticket, or tn
head of it. OF Logan we know less
but his wonderful success, his SUI
port in his native state and his cor
gressional record is such that b
seems to deserve the hearty supper
of every true republican and ever
man who admires valor, ability, il
dependence and a successful care'
in many spheres of life. We do NJ
believe that either candidate is Ell
tirely above criticism, but the que
ton is whether we shall. throw awa

Mr.. EDITOR, the candidacy of
Gen. Grout is being considered, his
friends have this to remember that
when he was serving the third dis
trict he attended to the business of
his office, and was faithful and dill
igent congressman. His most bitter
opponents cannot find in his official
work as representative anything to
criticize adversely. IL he is this fall
chosen TO represent the second dis
trict, the whole past history of the man
is sufficient guaranty that he will be
diligent and able worker in con-
gress.

A Murder.

Savanna, Carroll county, is greatly
excited over an affair which occurred
there last Sunday, whereby a citizen of
that town lost his life at the hands of
another resident The little steamer
Dorchesta took An excursion party to
Galena and back. On the boat were
August Ley, saloon keeper, and Frank
Scharar, tailor. The two became in.
volved in a dispute on the way home
which resulted in the latter being thrown
into the river. Parties attempted to res
cue him, but their efforts were unsuccess
full. Ley was bound hand and foot, and
on arriving at Savanna was turned
over to the proper authorities, and he is
now lodged in Jail. The people are very
indignant at the outrage, and strong
threats of lynching the murderer are
INDUCED in.
