Vigilance at the Primaries.

1t is hardly necessary to urge upOr
the voters of this town the need OF
their presence in the primaries this
fall. Politics have not been given
very much attention in this immediate
vicinity excepting by those who are
willing to be sacrificed on their coun-
try's altar. 1t is well, however, to
note that a governor and a lieutenant
governor are to be elected this fall
Concerning the latter Office st. Johns
bury will see to it that a solid delega-
tiOu is chosen for her citizen, Col
Franklin Fairbanks. When it comes
to the governOrship, as we have before
said, if the choice lies between Mr..
Ormsbee and Mr.. Batchelder, this sec
Neither of these men have put in very
heavy work in this vicinity. Some
time ago one of Mr.. Batchelder's
"friends" was here and canvassed the
field but met with so little encourage
ment that it is presumed the work was
abandoned. But Mr.. Batchelder has a
reputation for doing fine political
work when occasion requires and it
would be we'll for Caledonia county
voters to keep sharp lookout. AS
to black horses there are so many of
them and they have all been so well
groOmed and are so evenly matched
that nobody knows what the result
NAV be-

RECENT DEATHS.
-DR. DANIEL X. VIM.

The Lowell, Mass, Courier, contains
the following particulars of the death
of DR.. Winn which occurred May %
and has been noticed in these columns:
While preparing wash for patient
Monday afternoon, on his way from
the rear to the front room he suddenly
sank upon a pile of bottles in one cor
ner of the room. The patient ran out,
frightened, and notified Mr.. Blakeslee,
who keeps the wood yard near by, and
the latter put the doctor upon a lounge
but he did not rally from the apoplec-
tic attack, and died the next day. De-
ceased was 81 years old, and a native
of Danville, Vermont. He came to
Lowell over forty years ago, and
worked two or three years in the mill.
He then studied medicine with DIR.
Craig who was a practitioner for spec
ial diseases. Winn finally bought
Craig's business and apothecary store,
and sold it soon afterward for good
sum, which he lost in speculation. He
had been at his Kirk street location
about 25 years. Deceased was a MEM

their literature, ancient and modern.
Ozias d. Matthewson discussed the
labor problem. Labor and capital he
declared the same thing in different
forms and mutually dependent for
their highest development. Commun-
ism in principle is wrong; the trades
unions in principle are right but as
managed they are disadvantage.
Q) They promote and sustain strikes.
(2) They absurdly insist upon uniform
ity of wages. (3 They aim to pro-
tect the rights of members only. Three
neutrality-suspicious. arbitration and
higher education of the laborers-
were considered, the last most favor
ably.
Frank B. Nelson took for his theme
the good man. After noting the ad-
vantages and disadvantages derived
from natural impulses, the need of a
higher motive than the emotions was
emphasized and the principle laid down
that real character lies in the govern
ing purpose which must come from a
desire to do the will of God.
Frank Il. Taylor advocated the edu-
cation of the labOring classes as the
panacea for all the ills of the body pol
itic. No power equals it and true ed
ucation never makes a man ashamed of
honorable labor. No government can
survive with the mass of the people
ignorant. The success of popular gov
eminent in this country is the best IL
lustration of the advantages of univer-
sal education.

The Lieutenant Governorship.

1t is understood that Caledonia
county will unitedly and cordially sup
port Col. Fairbanks for the nomination
to the second place on the ticket. The
state might do worse, certainly, than
to make him lieutenant governor. He
is gentleman of clean and high per-
sOnal character, sound on all public
and party questions, a leading and
successful business man, and has had
experience as presiding officer, hav-
ing been speaker of the House. He
would preside over tho Senate with
impartiality and dignity, and in the
event of the death of the governor
would wOrthily and capably fill the
governors chair. What more is need

Press.
The Free Press asks a very peril
nent question. The issue seems to be
narrowing down to two men, Col.
Fairbanks and Mr.. Henry. From al
most every quarter of the state come
encouraging words concerning the Cal
edonia county candidate.
Says the Brattleboro Phoenix, at is
our impression that Col. Fairbanks has
a strong lead in the popular feeling a
the present time" There is reason to
suppose that he will not only receive
the united and cordial support of this
county, but that Essex and Orleans
counties will be equally united in sup
porting him. One of the noteworthy
