GEN. CIRCUIT NOTES.

Up to this date we have heard moth
ing to indicate any different opinion
from what we expressed some time
since, that Gen. Grout would be noun
mated for reelection from this dis
trict without opposition. His service
has been very satisfactory to his con-
situents, and they will be satisfied to
return him for another term. Bellows
Falls Times
Col. Hooker has not made the
haste we anticipated to declare that
he is not a candidate for the congress
siona nomination this year, ilu, on
the contrary has let it he known this
week that he does not expect sup
port in the convention next Wednes-
day land there is evidence that "a good
deal of quiet work has been done to
secure delegations for him in this
county aad in Windsor, Orange and
Washington counties. -Brattleboro
PhOenir.
Col. Hooker can recognize
"foregone conclusion as quick as
any one, and therefore we take no
stock in the report that he is making
"still hunt to capture the nominal
ton to congress. And at any rate
Brattleboro must be modest. With
live lieutenant-governo her belt
is full of scalps. Some other time,
Colonel. The denomination of Gen
Grout is as certain as anything in
the future can be, and he deserves it,.
Vermont Standard
Colonel George W. Hooker denies
that he is an active candidate for the
congressional nomination this fall.
He would accept the same if it came
spontaneously, but he has engaged in
no canvass either openly OF other
wise. This being the case General
Circuit will have no opposition uext
Wednesday, and will undoubtedly be
re-nominated by acclamation. The
general has earned this by able ano
faithful service, and the convention
will probably give expression to the
fact that the people of this distric
recognize the same Windsor Jour-
mol.

WHY THE DELAY?

When are the good times so conf
IDENTIFY predicted by the democrats
during the last political campaign
coming? The presidential election
which defeated the republicans oc-
Cured twenty-one months ago, and
the new administration has been in
power since March, 1885, but we
fail to see the coming of better times
in financial affairs. Very low prices
for farm products all over the country
are pinching the farmers terribly and
causing depreciation in the value
of farm property that will not be
recovered in years. Manufacturing
is correspondingly dull and the man.
ufacturer is compelled to cut down
the price of labor, and be content
with the smallest margin of profit,
if, indeed, with any profit at ALL
The laborer in all branches of work
must content himself, if he can, with
small pay and scant rations.
The party in power seems incom
petent to bring about any other con
dition of affairs. 1t is divided OIL
the questions of labor, the tariff, civ
il service reforms, financial matters
and things having to do with tn
public welfare. The president, how
ever wise and patriotic he may be
finds his own suggestions unheeded
his policy ignored, and his effort
thwarted by his party. We do nc
say what another patty would d
were it in power, but hardly see no
the state of financial affairs could b
I; worse.

The North Carolina republicans,
having long since discovered that a
sfree ballot and fair count is not
to be had in that state, and realizing
the helplessness of reform in demo
cratic tactics, have decided not to
put a ticket in the field. Election in
this and many other southern states
is but a mockery.

The annual report of the railroad

The performance of Hiram Atkins
in marshaling the federal office-holders
of Vermont at the recent state con-
vention provokes sharp comment, as
it ought to. Atkins is an illuminating
specimen of the boss politician. He
brings discredit on his party solely
for the purpose of maintaining his
own leadership of the state committee.

Chairman Hiram Atkins ran the
machine on schedule time and made
about twelve speeches between the
opening and closing of the conven-
ton. Every nomination made for
the state ticket was unanimously vot-
ed affirmatively, and no negative
vote was heard on any question. The
nominating speeches were all ex-
tremely brief, and in each case the
unterrifed 600 rose up in body in
response to Atkins motion to ratify
the nominations made.-B0stOn Jour

Fence Posts.

The following is said to be good meth
cd for preparing fence posts, which can
be made OF any kind or timber. 1t is from
the German "Gazette of Forestry. 1t
says:
''The soaking of the posts with blue
vitriol is found to be the best test yet OBJ
tanned. The mode of procedure is. in.
deed, very simple and easily executed
The posts must be new-that is, green;
now dissolve, in kerosene-oil barrel,
which is we'll adapted to this. four pounds
of blue vitroil in 100 quarts Of rain water;
in this solution place the posts in as sun
ny and warm a place as possible. As ear
ly as the next day you will observe how
the splint is turning green, sign that the
vitriol has fully impregnated the wood
cells; in few days the vitriol rises to the
top Of the posts, which thus becomes har.
dened against rot and weather. The posts
should not be pointed before such soaking;
square end draws the fluid much better.
This is a very simple, welI-tried, and
proven remedy, which can safely be re-
commended to every farmer. Posts so
saturated have stood fifteen years on the
first point, whereas those not so prepared,
but otherwise under like circumstances,
lasted but four years."
