There seems to be no settled or
unanimous expression of preference
in this section between Speaker
Batchelder and Lieut. -Governor
Ormsbee for governor. There has
been considerable work done for Mr..
Batchelder in the north part of Or
leans county, and he will get quite a
support from that section. We think
the vote of this county will be divid-
ed. Personally We are inclined to
think that Mr.. Ormsbee would be
the better man of the two. Either
of them would make respectable gov
ernors. On the Lieut.. Governor
question the county will be inclined
to give Mr.. Fairbanks of St. Johns
bury help toward the nomination
The choice will lie between him anC
Hugh Henry of Chester. In regard
TO other state officers we hear little
said in this section. The delegate
will be pretty unanimous in their de
sire to further the interests of Sena
tor Edmunds if it can be done b,
their influence.

A BRIEF ANSWE Err.

Having less hours at my disposal |
than it has taken months to prepare
that well written reply to my article
on corporal punishment, | will make
no attempt TO answer it properly, but
simply to correct a mistake. | might
wait until | had leisure to give some
thought to the subject, but do not
care to continue the controversy with
one who is out of the service.
There are so many pleasant things
about this occupation, it must be just
as natural to forget its wearing vex-
atoms, as for parents to forget the
misdemeanors of their children, after
they have passed out into the busy
world, or beyond to the silent land.
| know this to be the case, for one
of the finest and most thorough mas
tiers | have ever known, but withal
severe, was promoted to the position
of uperlntendent. Does he advo-
cate the measures which he used, land
thereby gained his name, fame, and
| promotion? No indeed He advises
his teachers to govern entirely by
gentleness and love, and one such
logging as he used to administer
might cost one the loss of a situation.
We are informed that ''the world
moves" Well, we are not so remote
from civilization but we can see that
it does, we can also see that it is
continually making blunders, and
the nation, or individual makes the
most rapid progress who sets itself
speedily about to correct its own
blunders.
Our forefathers made a mistake in
allowing slavery a foothold in this
country. We all know what it cost
to uproot that evil. Their descend
ants made another mistake in allow
ing Mormonism within our borders.
We don't know yet what it will cost
to eradicate that evil. We, of this
: generation are making great mis-
take in being over-indulgent with oul
children. We cannot see exactly
how it will affect our country's veal
| but we do see the misery right arount
: US that it is costing individuals.

Judge Maynard second controller of
the treasury, has reported to Acting
Secretary Fairchild the work per-
formed in his office during the year
ended May 81. There was an increase
of 1904 over the previous year in
the number of claims and accounts
examined and revised; an increase
of S118, 061, 306 in the amount of
claims and accounts adjusted, and an
increase of nearly 100 per cent in
the number of vouchers examined.
The estimate of appropriations for the
next fiscal year shows decrease of
$12,3S0. The monthly average of
adjusted ciames and accounts during
the past year has been SIS, 1863, 437.

the office for some years, aud his adj
mlnistration has been conscientious,
wise, and as free from criticism
as could be expected. There is, how
ever. desire by many in the south
ern section of the county, inasmuch
as the probate office proper will be
kept at Newport, to have sessions of
court held in this village, as their most
convenient point of access, and they
would like to present their claims to
the county by suggesting the name
of W 7. Robinson, Esq, of Barton
as fit man for the office. Mr.. Rob
inson is well-known as an attorney,
and IS an intelligent, upright man,
who ought to make capable and
acceptable officer The Palladium
and some of the people in the north
west section of the county mention
j. L. Lewis in connection with the
office of States Attorney. Mr.. Miles
of this place, whose name has been
mentioned, is not a candidate, and
we know of none in this section, so
the friends in the north end will de-
eide this matter among themselves.
The choice would seem to lie between
Mr.. Lewis and Mr.. Prouty of New
port. There is little or no opposi-
ton to the reelection of L. d. Miles
as sheriff, and he ought to receive
the nomination. We understand that
the people of Glover would like to
present the name of G. p. Owen as
suitable candidate for Assistant
Judge, and they feel that the town is
entitled to recognition.
We end as we began, by urging a
full attendance to all the caucuses.

According to the Tribune there
has been a turn it the condition of
ex-Presideut Arthur. The steady gain
that is said to lave been going on
for the last month has stopped. And
it Is said on good authority that he
has taken a considerable step back
ward, and that there are grave
doubts as to his ever getting we'll.
He has of late been getting weaker
and his vital force has been greatly
lessened by the return of the attacks of
insomnia which were so troublesome
in the early part of his sickness.
That the Generals family are some
what alarmed is shown in the close
and continuous watch that is kept
over him.

The House committee on invalid
pensions have agreed to report as a
substitute for Senator Blair's pension
bill, the bill introduced by Mr.. Ellis
berry of Ohio with amendments. The
Blair bill granted pensions according
to disability ranging from S24 a
month down to 81 to invalid soldiers
and sailors of the Z. S. in the late
war who are dependent upon their
daily labor for support. The bill
agreed upon by the House committee
provides for uniform pension of $12
a month for all soldiers and sailors
who are absolutely disabled and I'M
able to maintain themselves, and
does not recognize distinctions in
rank.
