THE CAMPAIGN OF CALUMNy.


A Protest from the Come cticut valley.
To the Editor OF the Free Press
WHITE RIVER JUNCTION, VT, Aug. q.
The enemies of Mr.. Edmunds are re
sorting to the most contemplate mea-
sures to prevent his reelection to the Sen
ate. His enemies are chiefly of the At
kins type and persuasion, to whom Mr..
Edmunds is in no sense under the least
obligation for favors received, and mem
bers of the Republican party who have
been removed from official positions, i. e.,
postmasters, mail agents and customs
officers, and others who were hoping es-
pecially to profit by the election of Mr..
Blaine. These sore heads are bitter in
their denunciations against Mr.. Edmunds,
because, forsooth, he neglected to 90 into
New York and canvass that State. How
utterly fallacious is such an argument .
Mr.. Cleveland was elected by majority
of less than one thousand votes and the
vote Of New York city gave him the cleo
ton. Is it ut all reasonable to suppose
that the voice of Mr.. Edmunds would
have been potent in the scale against the
Vaccinations of Tammany the bitter
and unrelentiDg opposition of George
William Curtis, supplemented by the car
ErCning Post; the intrigues of Coukling {;
the silly vapOrings of a certain parSOn
and last, but not least, that recreancy to
duty, which led Mr. Pearson, the Repub-
llcan postmaster OF New York city, to oc
casion the absence from the polls on cleo
ton day, of more than 1000 employees, who
were legal voters, and most of whom
would have voted the Republican ticket
Is 1t not just as reasonable to assert that
had Mr.. Edmunds canvaSsed West Nir-
glnia the solidity of the south would have
been broken, as to claim that he could
have changed the result in New York, or
that of the election in general
Senator Morrill, has put quietus upon
the misrepresentation put forth by the
bowling dervish of the Rutland TclC
gram, concerning the action of Mr.. Ed
mundS on the taxation of oleOmargarine,
and the charge of favoritism toward sun
dry corporations, etc. What next ? Why
the hirelng of the Telegram, and the
editors Of more respectable papers, will
doubtless raise hue and cry against Sen
atOl Morrill, Tor inconsistency Senator
Morrill, is always true to his convictions
and IN this instance he has plainly and
emphatically announced that it would be
suicidal for the Republicans OF Vermont
to retire Mr.. Edmunds, and would not
only tend to destroy the prestige enjoyed
by Vermont in the Senate but would mil
itate against the best interests of the Re
publican party in general.
Vermont cannot afford to lose the pres
tige She has gained, and the position she
holds in the councils of the nation, by
virtue of having elected to Congress such
men as Edmunds and Morrill,, Stewart
and Grout Retire Mr. Edmunds, and
however capable or wise his successor
might be, he could not attain, except by
years of like experience, to the preemi
uent position now held by our noble sen
ator, whose reelection is a foregone con
clusion FORTrNIO.

ments undertaken, men feigned being
wounded and the entire affair took on a
realistic character to all save veterans.
The contest which seemed to be the
source of much enjoyment to the partci-
pants as well as spectators, ended III
drawn battle.
The battle was well conducted on both
sides and credit is due to the commanders
as well as the men individually for the
efficiency exhibited. II was source of re-
greet to many that the battery did not take
part in the ARRAY as was intended, but the
approach of train time rendered 1t impOs-
sibIe.
The mock battle brought the exercises
of the muster to n close and the men will
break camp this morning. During the
muster more work has been done than
in any previous year, and while all who
participated are to be commended for
their best effort Col. Greenleat's work de-
serves especial mention not only for its in
herent merit but also for the reason that
II painful eruption rendered his every mo
ment one of suffering. All are to be con
graduated on the success of Camp Stan
nard.
Camp Stannard Broken saturday Morning
departure of the Companies.
Camp was broken at Camp Stannard
early Saturday morning. and where all
was order and military precision the pre-
vious day, confusion reigned supreme.
The time required for the removal of the
tents and packing up the equipage was
short and some of the companies had con-
siderable time at their disposal before
their departure, to inspect the city, which
was taken advantage Of The Bradford
company left on the 7:30 train, the Bran
don, Rutland, Bennington and Brattle
boro companies at 8 u. m. by special train,
the st. Johnsbury company at $40, the
St. Adams and Newport companies at
l1:l5 and the Barre, Mort hfield and MOntpe
ier companies at 4:45 1t should have been
stated that the annual banquet was ten
dered by Col. w. l.. Greenleaf and staff.
One of the results of the muster was the
taking of action in relation to permanent
camp and the procuring of better equip
ment. A committee was appointed to
visit militia camp grounds in other States
for the purpose OF ascertaning the compar
ative merits and advantages of temporary
and permanent military camps The com
mittee consists of Col. w. l.. Greenleaf,
Lieut.. Col. J. j. Estey, Major c. c. kins
man, Surgeon c. f. Branch, Capt. Levi
X Fuller and Capt. J. II. Watson. a com.
mittee consisting of Col. Greenleaf, Ad
jutant Greene, Capt. Morse of Rutland,
Surgeon Branch and Captain Clark of
Montpelier was also appointed TO draw up
a petition to be presented to the Legisla
ture praying for State aid and the passage
of such acts as will conduce to the elf
cheney of the militia and the credit of the
State. The promise Of Senator Edmunds
and Lieut.-G Gov. Ormsbee to aid III the en-
deaVOr to secure better arms for the regi-
ment and battery was well received by the
men and the outlook hat their wishes will
he realized Is encouraging.

THE ANTIEDMUNDs CAMPAIGN.
. Is this Its True Inwardness {;
LVergennes Vermontcr.l


Readers of the papers have noticed that
in these closing days of the political cam
paign now engaging our attention he
warfare against Senator Edmunds goes
on with undated fury and with a bitter
ness and acrimony unparalleled in the
history of Vermont politics. 1t is clear
that the friends of some man are deter
mined to defeat the reelection af Mr.. Ed
munds and return Il new and untried leg
slator to the senate of the t nited States.
They ask to be represented by man who
will be a staunch friend to the great mo-
nOpOlleS of our country. one who Will
not, or can not denounce and etfcctually
oppose the jobhery and corruption which
creeps into the doings of Congress at
every session a man who will lend assist
ance to his own schemes first and protect
the interests of the government and the
people last. As evidence of all this we
have only to examine the record of the
present campaign for the past few weeks
Organized workers have canYassed the
entire State in the interest of some man.
Newspapers which are owned or controlled
by some man are filled week after week
with false accusations Of the Vilest char
acter against Senator Edmunds. Foreign
wire pullers and rascalS have been i'm
ported into the State and employed by
of Islander and vituperatiun unequaled in
its baseness in this day and age. Bolts
have been organized by some man to de-
feat regularly nominated candidates who
favor the return of Senator Edmunds
and the war is kept up by some man after
every county in the State has declared it
self in favor of the reelection of Mr.. Ed
munds. Here are the facts and part OF
the record. Who is the man the ques-
tion is answered by the Rutland Saturday
Express "a leading organ of the opposition
as follows:
THE issue has been made and can no longer
hc avoided, and the crisis has come. II Is

Pile proclaim John Gregory Smith as the man

a GREAT DANGER.

The late Bayard Taylor, who probably trav-
eled more over the surface of the globe than
any living man, claimed that ne could not
only tell the nationality OF any persons whom
he met by the way in which they converscd
but could also tell the locality of the parti-
CulHr country from which tn came. This
reminds us OF an incident which occurred to
the writer in conversation with Mr.. Taylor at
one time. He said
81 have seen every land and people. and do
not hesitate to say that for energy, Intensity
and enterprise, the inhabitants OF America
exceed any on the face # the glubc. These
qualities are their inheritance Their nurcc-
tors landed upon bleak coast in wintcrwith
savages before them ana an ocean behtnd
ana they not only conquered the country
nut even caused much OF its barren SOIL to he
come richly productive. This energy this
intense push, is inherited by their dcscenJ-
ants. and the people of America today nro
uncqualled by any people in the world IN tho
qualities above named. 1t Is, perhaps, nm
fortunate that these qualities have been So
cured too often at the expense of health, and
we ind exhaustion of the physical powers
nervousness and debility more common
among the men and women OF America than
in any other locality on the face of the globe /"
Mr.. Taylor spoke from rich experience, and
he spoke the truth.
The nervous, mental and physical exhaus-
t3n which ls undergone must be replace
ed by blood-makng, nerve making and
brain elements, or this state of dcpres-
sion will continue. Albumenin the sys-
and beef, malt and hops will produce albumen

other known combination These plcmcnfa
have been haprily combined ia the great pre-
paration, Hoptonic, aud the revival of physi-
cal energies In thousands of people has fully
proven its power and value
These are not remarks given at random, but
serious and earnest truths demanded by facts
and confirmed by scientists. There are hum
dreds OF men and women in their graves who
might be alive and happy had they known
the truths and acted upon them in time and
it is painful to think of the intense suffering

FOURTH DAY.
Governor Pingree and stan Present The
Annual Review Speeches by Governor
Pingree, senator Edmunds and
Iieut.-Gov. Ormsbee.

Friday was Governor Day" at
Camp StannaTd and it was naturally the
most interesting day of the muster. Early
in the day His EXcellency Gov. Pingree
and staff, who arrived in Burlington the
night previous, established their headquar-
tiers in camp, where the governor received
large number of prominent visitors.
Lieut. Gov. Ormsbee was also present and
was warmly greeted. Most of the dis
tinguished visitors were accompanied by
their wives, and the presence of the latter
lent an additional charm and interest to
the occasion. Al. noon the governors
party, the leading officers of the various
organizations present, Mayor Woodbury.
and other prominent men in military and
civic circles and their wives, were tender
ed a banquet at the headquarters mess
tent by Gen. L. :. Peck. This was the
leading social event connected with the
muster and it was an occasion of great en-
jOyment. The various military move
ments were executed in manner highly
credltable to both officers and men, and
the exercises were witnessed by thousands
of spectators. In spite of the oppressively
hot temperature the interest remained UNI
tagging throughout and the large throng
Of visitor, remained until the conclusion
of the days exercises. Those who have
been present at many of the annual mus
tiers say that yesterday was one of the
most successful days in the history of the
National Guard of Vermont.
In the forenoon the regular exercises
were gone through. At . o'clock guard
mount was performed with Capt. G. w.
Carr as officer of the day, Lieut.. r. l..
Buss commander of the guard, and Lieut..
j. W. Page lieutenant of the guard At
10 O'Clock the battalion formed in line for
drill and the time until noon was mostly
spent in skirmish drill The skirmshers
| deployed under command of Major G. G..
knsman and the various movements in
front and flank were performed.
