We place at the head of our columns
this week the Republican ticket nom
mated at Montpelier last week and
heartily commend it to our readers as
exceptionally good. We publish else
where the proceeding of the conven-
ton, which was one of the largest and,
in point of intellectual ability, one of
the strongest ever convened within
our State. Entire harmony prevailed
and everybody, even to the defeated
candidates themselves, returned home
feeling that no mistakes had been
made. Mr.. Ormsbee, as we have be-
fore had occasion to state in these
columns, is a level-headed, conscien-
tious and upright man, and will un-
ouestionably make a safe Governor.
Col. Fuller is one of the active mana
gers of the Estey organ business, the
largest of its kind in the world. He
is well known as a gentleman of great
hberality, especially in religious and
educational matters; has represented
Windham County in the State Senate,
and is deservedly popular. He is
highly respected wherever he is
known, and we think will make a
popular Lieutenant-Governor. Of
the balance of the ticket it need only
be said that they are the present in
cumbents, and have served in their re
spectiye capacities so acceptably that
each was honored with a unanimous
and hearty denomination.
The convention did not consider or
act upon by vote or resolution any
proposition touching the coming Sen
atorial canvass, but it was quite evil
dent that, if the delegates to that
convention were to be taken as expo
nents Of the views of their constitu-
ency touching this matter, there will
be little or no opposition from Repub-
ican quarters to the Senator's re-elec-
bon. Resolutions favoring a railroad
Pmission, and the passage of the
eomargarine bill now pending in
congress, were enthusiastically re-
ceived and heartily adopted.

The Latest Bogus Butter Tactics.

We are informed that the bogus but.
ter manufacturers have employed q
skilled press agent to work the press
in their interests. With free-trade
papers the argument is used that the
proposed tax is rank protection. Pro-
teCtionist Journals are assured that
the internal revenue will be so largely
increased by the proposed tax that
the tariff will have to be lowered. An
Eastern Senator, who is said to be in
terested in an oleomargarine factory,
has been active in his denunciation of
the bill and in prophesying that it will
not pass the Senate. A prominent
member of the Knight of Labor in
Brooklyn was "retained' to work the
order, in behalf of oleo, but the Gen
eral Assembly of the Knights Of Labor
repudiated this as fraud. Indeed,
the whole business is founded on fraud.
Some reputable dealers, notably the
Thurbers, at first believed that it
would take it's place as a legitimate
food product, but when it became ev-
ident that it could not, and that al
though they sold it at wholesale for
what it was, it invariably sold at re-
tail fraudulently, they stopped hand
ling it, because it put them in the
same position as wholesale dealers in
counterfeit money.
1t is not unconstitutional to tax oleo-
margarine, and to say that it should
not be done because it would inciden-
tally protect the great dairy industry
against dishonest competition and con-
sumers against fraud, is as absurd as
to say that no revenue should be raised
from tariff duties because they in
cidentally protect American labor.
We are likely to need more instead of
less revenue but if we have too much,
let the tax on tobacco, which largely
falls upon the working classes, be abol-
ished. Bogus butter manufacturers say
"Leave it to State regulation" they
well knowing that after it leaves the
factories and is scattered over the
country, the machinery to enforce its
honest sale, outside of the Internal
Revenue Department does not exist.
No one disputes the constitutional
power to tax any article; even the
hide-bound Judiciary Committee of
the House of Representatives admits
this. The expediency of such tax
is therefore, the only thing requiring
to be considered. The great dairy in
terest, as consumers, who want pure
butter. but who are constantly being
imposed upon, and honest dealers
who have to compete against the dis
honest sale of this article, all answer
this question most emphatically in the
affirmative, and we believe that there
are honest, clear headed men enough
in the United States Senate to pass
this bill, and that President Cleveland
will sign it, Notwithstanding all the
sophistries which its rich and I'M
scrupulous opponents bring to bear
against it.-Amertcae DGiryman.

Letter from Minnesota.

ST. CHARLES, MINI. June 9, '66.
Messrs. Editors:
We still live and enjoy life as well
as usual. The prospect seems favor
able to our remaining here for some
time to come, which would not be a
calamity at all, as we think it is one
OF the most desirable parts Of the
country to live in. The only criticism
L have ever heard of Southern Mime
sofa is the severity of its winters. On
comparing notes, however, with those
who live further south, in Kansas, for
instance, L concluded that we have
much less discomfort from cold than
IS felt in that State. Some of the
most enjoyable days we have in the
"hole year are in the winter. The
pure, dry air is luxury to breathe.
In Kansas thousands of cattle are lost
IN severe winters from exposure. Here
they are sheltered in good houses and
nave plenty of the best fodder. We
have had an extra early season.
Strawberries are now in their prime.
berries are generally cultivated, and
are seen in great abundance upon the
tables of both rich and poor. Apples
are chiefly purchased from Michigan,
and are usually cheap. Something
like two thousand barrels are annual
" sold in our town. Apples do not
thrive in this State, as yet, except in
sheltered vallies. Green peas and
other vegetables are beginning to ap-
pear from our own gardens. OF course
we have vegetables from the Southern
States, that are brought up the river
for those who choose to purchase.
Indian corn, potatoes, and in fact all
crops are looking well. We have had
no frosts in this part of the State to
injure crops materially. In business
we share the depression which is felt
just now throughout the country. We
are not suffering, especially, however.
Two new stores are in process of
erection, and one of them will be on a
double lot, and the most commodious
IN the country.
There is a steady improvement
going on by way of painting and re-
pairing old buildings. Our main street
IS much handsomer than it was two
years ago. Another improvement is
the removal of several hundred shade
trees, letting in the sunlight upon
many grounds which were too densely
shaded.
Last week l was absent attending
the annual session of our local confer
ence, about one hundred miles north
west by rail. Went to conference by
way of the Mississippi river and city
of Red wing. 1 returned by way Of
Mortified, where / visited Carleton
college. In the observatory Prof.
Paine keeps the time for many thou
sand miles of railway in the North
west.
L should like very much to visit the
dear old Green Mountain State this
summer. The scenery there will be
joy forever. l often meet with west
ern people who never saw noun
tain or the sea. l cannot help wish
ing that could show them around my
native State. On the other hand [
should take great pleasure in showing
Vermonters the glory of this country.

Luke ?. Poland.

After an absence of thirty years from
the political counsels of Lamoille Coun-
ty, Judge Poland again takes his place
with the co-workers of his youthful
DAYS. Co-workers we say, although it is
practically true that of the entire dele
CATION from Lamoille County, of whom
he was one, at the State convention at
Montpelier last week, not one had ever
before participated in political gather
ings with the Judge; in fact, the large
majority of them had actually been born
since the Judge took his departure from
the home of his childhood for wider
fields. Since he left Lamoille County he
has undoubtedly seen more of public life
than any other living man in Vermont,
having been for long term OF years one
of the Justices of the Supreme COurt-ln
fact, for quite long term its lllustr1ous
Chief Justice for several terms men,
Der of Congress, and for time U. ;.
Senator. The history of the politics of
Vermont could hardly be written with
out giving prominence to his name, as In
our National and State conventions he
has always been prominent figure. Is
it to be wondered at then, that when the
Secretary of the State Committee called
the roll. and when-the town of Water
vile being reached-the venerable Judge |
responded in his usual basso-prO fufado,
that the convention spontaneously and
with one accord greeted the name of the
old veteran with applause
Until recently it has been supposed
that the Judge was opposed to the re-
election of Senator Edmunds, but the
Free Press of Monday last published
personal communication from him in
which he expresses his contempt for
those who have sought to place him
in false attitude with reference to
this matter defends the actions of the
Senator says he has no doubt of his re-
and closes his epistle with
this sentence =
''In relation to the reelection OF Mr..
/ have uniformly said, that if
he desired to be reelected / had no
doubt he would be. | do not like to
stand in any false position, or in any
doubtful position, and so L ask you to

- Has Some Candidate or Scheme Of
its Own"

Brother Benedict takes especial
pains to go out of his way to cast
slur upon Lamoille County Republi-
cans in his editorial upon the state
convention. He says =" Judge Po-
lands name was not presented, but he
had a number of votes from Lamoille
county, aohich commonly has some can
dsdote or scheme Of its oUn." The
italics are ours. For gentleman liv-
ing IN county that has had Cover
nors, Lieut.. Cows, U. S. Senators,
collectors Of the Port, in fact the
whole line of Offices from A to Z to
accuse our little county of commonly
having candidate" when as a matter
of fact we have never had a nominee
for Governor from Lamoille County, is
decidedly uncharitable. If we have
ever had a representation upon the
State ticket it is before our remem
brance, except in the case of Lieut..
Gov. Hendee, and then Chittender
County sought to prevent that honor
by bringing forward L. B. Englesby
She then even sought to deprive US of
any place in the sisterhood of coun-
ties, by claiming that we didn't be long
upon the west side of the State. Of
course if our locus IN quo for political
purposes was not upon the west side
we were politically non est and there
fore had no right to bring forward a
candidate to compete with Chittenden
County. The State, however, gave
Chittenden County nice little spank
ing at that time and we don't know
as Brother Benedict has ever got over
it; in fact we are rather inclined to
think that he still believes we are nom
existent. The legislature has seen fit
to put US in bed with Brother Bene-
dict and very likely if we lay entirely
quiet and don't kick in our sleep, we
shall be allowed to stay. But like
other little children in bed with the
big boys, it is quite evident that we
must sleep at the foot, and if we don't
keep quiet we shall get kicked out.

Anarchists say they are more nu-
merous, and better prepared for rev.
olution in the United States than those
out of their ranks have any concep-
ton. They proclaim their motto to
be, "Neither God nor MASTER" and
their doctrine, "Down with Church,
State, Capital, Knights of Labor and
other kindred villainies." How much
better is this than brute instinct?
Why it is not on par with it, for the
most savage brute does know the true
principles of self-preservation. If
any of these men-lower, actually in
intelligence, than the lowest brute
were the least acquainted with history
they would know that such principles
as they avow never have and never
can be successful in word or deed, or
by the gauge of battle even when
backed by an army of five to one
against righteous government. There
is not moral point in their motto or
doctrine and without such points no
army of men could prevail even against
the Hottentots of Africa, for there is
some moral elements in their charac-
ter. Poor ignorant fools, read up in

Editors Ne1CS and Citizen:
Showers in south eastern Kansas
are unfrequent and light. Good wheat
fields are scarce and corn is backward.
Apple orchards are numerous here,
and the trees are thrifty and heavy
laden with fruit. Coming from CEN
trail Arkansas to southern Kansas is
like getting out of the woods. Here,
instead of frequent ridges and noun
tains of yellow pine forests, we have
we'll cultivated prairies, checked with
hedges and dotted with groves. We
have fewer nayigable rivers, but more
railroads; less wild game, but more
good cattle and horses. We have,
and require, better buildings, private
and public, on the farm and in the
city. prefer Arkansas winters, but
not its summers. 1t is pleasant to be
free from wood-ticks, to meet with
fewer eX-Confederate than eX-Union
soldiers, to see fewer acquaintance
borne to the cemeteries, and to be
with clean, we'll clad, intelligent
friends of free schools. Yet modesty
and charity, rather than pride and
selfshness, become the State that has
twice been the recipient of the nations
generosity. # Kansas might blush for
both those who have unreasonably ex-
tolled and those who have falsely de-
famed her: for both those who have
basely opposed or betrayed her laws
and institutions founded upon princi-
pies of equity, freedom, temperance
and popular enlightenment, and those
who long favored with such blessings,
have failed to improve the same. God
sends cure or good for every ill.
Kansas, with all thy faults we love
thee still" Here, freedom triumphs,
education thrives, and Gods dear
spirit yet with sinners strives.
