Political Notes.

THE democratic party in Vermont is
now little more than protoplasmic
germ.-Ne,o York Tribune.
THERE is a rumor afoat that Mr..
Cleveland is to be president of the Bal
timore & Ohio railway after next
March.
Boston Journal "The overwhelm-
ing defeat of the municipal suffrage
bill in the Vermont house of represent
atives attests the wise conservatism of
the Vermont legislature"
REUBEN DAVIS, a cousin of Jeff
Davis and one of the Mississippi con-
gressmen who resigned their seats in
1860 in order to take part in the rebel
lion, is now an ardent republican. He
lately called upon Mr.. Harrison and
gave him his hearty congratulations.
THAT some people were guilty of
stupid bets on the election is made suffi-
GENTLY clear by these pathetic lines
from the pen of man who got left:
Nonew overcoat this season!
Same old ulster'll have to do
If ! sti retain ETA ny ny reason
IT is gratifying to learn from so good
an authority as Dorman b. Eaton that
General Harrison has deep convictions
upon the subject of civil service reform
and that he will try to bring about
real reform and not the sham one of
the Cleveland administration.
"IF Mr.. Cleveland were more of
a politician and less of statesman
he would have come nearer being
elected. "-SdUanndh (Ga.) NeiCS. Per-
haps yes, perhaps no. AT any rate the
republican cow has kicked over the
democratic milk-pail, and a rousing
good kick it was, too. All tears shed
because of that fact are wasted, be-
cause they are unavailing.-Netc York
Herald.
TIE Voice is greatly delighted with
the fact, as it alleges, that the popular
vote for Fisk and Brooks is some 300,-
600 in the United States, as against
about 10000 for st. John and Daniel
in 1884. What is gained for temper
ance by this increase of votes? just
nothing at all. What have the third
party prohibitionists ever gained for
the cause of temperance? Just nothing
at all. What, as third party, will
they ever gain? Just nothing at all
This tells the story in a few words
NeW York Independent.
For several days there has been con-
siderable doubt as TO which of the two
great parties would have majority in
the next national house of representa-
tives. The democrats, true to the ira
ditions of their party, have been trying
to steal enough seats to enable them to
organize that body, in which case they
would be in position to unseat enough
republicans to give themselves good
working majority. But the scheme has
not worked, and the republicans will
have not less than five majority, with
a chance when the official count is
made of its being not less than twelve.

THE supreme court has appointed
Charles A. Prouty, Esq, of Newport
reporter of supreme court decisions.
Edwin F. Palmer, Esq, of Waterbury
has held this Office since 1880. He has
performed his duties, we have generally
understood, with great satisfaction to
the bar, and, it was supposed, accept
ably to the bench. He is scholarly,
has good legal mind, and his reports
have received high commentator out
side the state. His successor is a man
of bright mind and keen wit, and he
has won good position at the Orleans
county bar. He is the representative
from Newport and is chairman of the
house committee on education. He
has made very favorable impression
on the legislature. He is Dartmouth
College graduate and will unquestion-
ably make competent reporter. So
far, however, as the public is in
formed, no good reason exists for
change-and change in such an office
without adequate reason is against
public policy.
The Vermont watchman. [volume] (Montpelier, Vt.) 1883-1911, 1888-11-21

THE suggestion of many of the state
papers that it would be eminently fitting
that President-elect Harrison should
recognize the Pole Star of republic
canism by giving position in the
cabinet to some one of Vermont's emf
nent citizens, and that one Governor
Proctor-we heartily approve. YER
mont, however, asks no recognition"
She has, as always, done her full duty
without hope of reward.

WEDNESDAY. NOVEMBER 81, 1888.

THE assertion is sometimes made that
Cleveland in 1884 received majority
of the popular as well as electoral vote.
This is an error; he had plurality over
Blaine, but not majority over all. The
figures are these Cleveland, 4,911 OH;
Blaine, a, S4S, 1884; all others, 2S5 ,G34 !;
Cleveland's plurality, 62,6S3. Cleve-
fell III ,476 short of majority.

POLITICAL OUTLOOK.

The indications are that the candidates
for the different offices in this section will
be numerous. For Congress Hon. ]. G.
Clements will be candidate again, we
learn, while Judge Rranham and Col.
Reece, of Rome, and Col Shumate, of Dial,
ton will contest with him for the nomina,
ton We also learn that Col. Charles ID.
Phillips, of Cobb county, will be candi-
date for the nomination of Congressman.
The Senator for the 35th district by
rotation, will be furnished by Fulton county
this time, Judge Hillyer, Clarke Howell
and John B. Goodwin have been mentioned
as suitable candidates In Cobb Hon. A.
s. Clay will be in the field for reelection to
the House OF Representatives, while }. A.
l.. Born, J. d. Upshaw, Rev. A. G. DENIM
sey and Joseph Lacy have been mentioned
as probable candidates for the Legislature.
also Mr.. James c. Sanges. Altogeth-
er there will be plenty of material to select
from. In the race for the Judge of Supe-
rior Court of the Blue Ridge Circuit, we so
far have heard Of but one avowed candidate.
Hon. W. j. Winn, of Cobb county, it being
understood that Judge Brown will not be a
candidate again. His son George r. Brown
CT Canton, is a candidate for Solicitor Cen
eral, also Col Tate, of Jasper The present
Solicitor, Geo. f. Gober declines to be a
candidate. Col. Joe B. Alexander, of Mari
eta, is spoken of as good timber out of
which to make Solicitor General Col. R.
n Holland who has been previously men
toned will pot make the race. We have
heard no one spoken of as candidate for
the several county offices. 1t is probable
that all the present officers will stand for
re election, some of them for certainty.

BRUMBY'S CHAIR FACTORY

The Brqmby Chair Factory Of this
place, is shipping chairs to Pennsylvania
and China. The fame of the Brumby chairs
has spread until all the world wants them.
1t is the best and most durable and satisfac-
tory chair made in the United States This
factory makes about ton thousand dozen
chairs per annum and then cant fill all the
orders. What becomes of all the chairs is a
mystery to us. 1t is splendidly equipped
and well-managed enterprise. Messrs. James
R. Brumby. Thomas NJ Brumby and j. C.
Ialey are the proprieters aud notwitstand
ing adverse and discriminating freight rates,
they have made the factory pay, met COM
petition and pushed their business far and
near. 1t is such enterprises as these that
give life and prosperity TO town Many To-
borers at the shops are given remunerative
employment, while many women and child.
rem make living at their homes bottoming
chairs. The pay roll of this factory amounts
to about 800 per day. This amount is dis
tributed throughout all classes of business
and is an item that is worth approaching hy
our merchants. Very fiattering offers have
been made by Decatur, Ala, syndicate to
induce this factory to remove their plant to
that place. This the W. & A. r. R. should
not allow to happen if better freight rates
will prevent it. Manufacturing enterprises
are great feeders to Railroad and the
more they foster and build up by liberal
freight rates, the better it is for the road and
the people
