A Wise Conclusion.

The st. Adams Messenger, after an
exhaustive review of the Edmunds
contest, comedies "that the republi-
cans of Vermont, in the main, are sat
isfied with Mr.. Edmunds' course, and,
without apology or a word, they are
willing to approve and to be cOntented
with the future" and adds: owe have
been disappointed that others could
not see things in the same light that
we did, but will have no further words
about it. We are now through with
the matter" 1t is wise conclusion.
There are few who will not be glad to
see the subject dropped, for the present
at least. The Messengers parting sal
utatiOn is greeted with hearty "amen'
the state over.

Rutland's MisfOrtunes.

1t looks as though the largest town
in the state would be unrepresented in
the legislature this year because of Mr..
Hogan's ineligibility, as noted last
week. Now it is said that the vote of
Rutland on the county ticket drops out
of the official count by reason of the
negligence of its officers in making the
returns. The Herald remarks pen
sively "MisfOrtunes in Rutland cleo
tions do not come singly this year."

Seven hundred of the prominent Cit
liens of Pittsburg and Allegheny City,
Penn, have signed an agreement to
take an active part in municipal poll
tics, in the hope of purifying the city
administration of local affairs. Here
is an admirable suggestion for the
business men of st. JOhnsbury and
other large Vermont towns, who some
times complain that the men who own
the least property are those who con-
troll local politics.

The Temperance Issue to the Front.

The same day that the anti-salOOn
republicans met at Chicago, mass
temperance convention was held at
Worcester, Mass. While this was
called as bipartisan, it was in fact
composed almost wholly of republi-
cans. There were $40 delegates pres
ent, and while some very prominent
politicians were conspicuous by their
absence, there were men enough pres
ent of ability and character to foretell
disaster to the political party in Mas
sachusetts that ignores the temperance
question. The temperance issue is a
live, burning question, and it has come
to stay until settled righteously.

The Second Day.

Wednesday morning, the second day
of the fair, the sun came out from I'M
der cover and opened the day in fine
shape. Though the air was still pref
ty sharp, the weather was pleasant and
the attendance, though not quite up to
last year, was good. The St. Johns
bury band was on hand discOursing
excellent music and one felt that the
fair had actually begun.
The CavaIcade.
The first event of the day was the
cavalcade of oxen, steers and bulls.
Following the band came Mr.. Hazen's
exhibit, the entire "a yoke in one
string, representing nearly 100000
pounds of OK flesh Ito be exact 80, 4S1.)
VermOnters never saw so much good
beef tied together in one lot before !;
indeed, it is doubtful if anybody ever
did. Then followed the st. JOhnsbury
string, eight yoke F. R. Palmer's two
yoke ; Waterford's string of eight yoke;
Ryegate seven fine string of eight
yoke of yr old steers; five yoke OF
yearlings and then came the fellows
with rings in their noses. There was
Mr.. Harris "Green Mountain Boy"
and then his handsome Devon, POlled
Angus and Hereford bulls. The cav
alcade also included we'll known bulls
owned by Messrs. Darling, Bemis,
Stevens, Willis, Evans, Wright, Fair
banks, Bronson and others. Caledonia
county may think itself fortunate if it
ever sees another such exhibit. The
rest of the morning was taken up with
the exhibition of trained oxen.
Wednesdays Races.
The county, green and equestrian
races were the events of Wednesday
afternoon. In the county trOt there
were but three entries, in the green
trOt there were six and in the eques-
trian race but two. Below is the score
