Orleans County monitor. [volume] (Barton, Vt.) 1872-1953, 1885-11-23

ing vexed at such petty exhibition
of spite, Newport leans back and
laughs, " etc.
Since they feel up at Newport that
there will he no legal contest in re-
gard to the steal 4 the shire, the
muzzie has been moved from the
editor Of the Erpress, and Ii is bray
ing in his own account, but in strange
contrast with the sanity meekness
which characterized his course at the
time when the exultant meeting was
held at Newport and resolutions were
passed in honor of those most prom
inent in the steal, and when it was
said I'VE remember with thanks
the dignity, independence and perse-
verance with which the editor of the
Express has uttered his views and
used his influence in securing the de-
sired end Irasburgh wants moth
ing that does not by right belong to
her, but she resents any vulgar ref
erences or spiteful illusions. New
port, by plot as dark as night, has
stolen the shire, but she has not the
county, the earth or the heavens, and
she can leau back and s'laugh." and
ssmake faces" if she wishes, but it is
neither brave not becoming. But we
will not measure Newport by the sill
ly utterances of the Eapress, she is
worthy of a better regard than her
local paper brings her.
