Some years ago this place was overrun by

officers have been close on his trail, and
have even captured six of his stills, but A.
T. Odell could never be caught. On Thurs
day night Deputy Collector T. L. CANT,
accompanied by Messrs. Prater and Arnold,
left Athens to make q charge on the
invincible Odell, and to break up
his fun. They had long ride
through Madison county, but at last
drove up to the moonshiner's house, and
commenced examining the premises. At
last one of the party spied basket of some
meal, which had evidently been taken from
a still where corn whisky had been made.
This was evidence enough to show the
officers that there was more to follow, 90
the proprietor of the brandy trust" was
called from his warm bed to discuss the

and make a pilgrimage 10 the shrine Of

ceptably, and will probably be NOM
mated without opposition. VIM. ID.
Dubois, state Treasurer, is another
man who ought to be continued IN
office. His administration has been
most efficient, aud he is esteemed as
one of the best and most honorable
business men in the state. 1t would
be a misfortune to put the office in
any other hands, as it could not pos
sibly be better performed.
What has been said compliment
tarv to Mr.. Porter and Mr.. Dubois
can equally we'll be. said of E. Hen
ry Powell, state Auditor. During
the first year of Mr.. PowelPs admin
istration there were some criticisms
on his methods, but when his thorough
business-like and careful watchful-
ness of the interests of the state as
we'll as the rights of individuals be-
came to be understood, it was con-
ceded that no man had performed
the duties of the office better than
Mr.. Powell. 1t is considerable to
defend the state against all who are
not particularly scrupulous as to law
or Justice in matters where their own
claims are concerned. Mr.. Powell
allows all just claims, but is a very
bad man to look over what is fcti-
tious or false. The interests of the
state will be we'll looked after in the
hands of these above mentioned.

The Democratic Platform.

Elsewhere we present the Demo-
cratic platform.
The chief interest centers in the
tariff plank. That was a compromise.
At first there was free trade victory
in electing Mr.. Watterson chairman
of the platform committee. Next
there was protection victory, such
as it was, by re-affirming the tariff
straddle of 1884. This resulted from
the scare caused by the Oregon cleo
ton news. But then came great
pressure from Washington in behalf
of the presidents policy and the
Mills bill, and the result was another
juggle. The presidents policy was
adopted "as an Interpretation" of the
plank of 1884.
Interpretation" is good. 1t adj
mits obscurity. The party faced both
ways. 1t intended to make tariff
declaration that could be claimed for
free trade in Indiana and protection
in New Jersey, and such claims were
made.
Now, however, they can be made
no longer. The presidents message
favors free wool, recommends a gen.
eral reduction of duties and looks to-
wards free trade. All free traders
in America and England hailed it
with delight. That, then, fixes the
party where it cannot squirm cut of
position.
For the promotion of tariff reduc-
ton the platform has much to say
about unnecessary taxation" and a
'burdensome and dangerous sur
plus" If these were honest reasons,
why did not the party recommend the
adjustment of the internal revenue,
which yields s119, OOO,O 900 year, and
the sugar duties, which yield $58, 000,-
900.
On two subjects the platform is
about as silent as the grave: temper
ance and civil service reform. And
yet. the professed chief champions of
both of those causes contributed to
Democratic victory-caused it, in
fact, 19S4-and have started out to
repeat the folly this year.
The platform abounds in false as
sertions, of which the following shines
by its very blackness "The equality
of all our citizens before the law.
without regard to race or color, has

The Prohibitionists.

The party prohibitionists who have
been extensively preparing for the
convention at Montpelier, met on
Tuesday, about sixty being present
in the forenoon, a hundred in the
afternoon. Samuel Dickey, chair
man of the national committee, Mrs.
Il. f. Wallace, of the w. G.. T. I'm
ion, j. R. Bartlett, publisher of the
AdUocdte, and some other more or
less noted prohibitionists were pres
ent. The addresses are said to have
consisted largely of abuse and crit
icisms of the republican party. The
following state officers were nomi-
mated: Governor, Henry M. Seeley
of Middldbury; Lieutenant Govern
or, George Z. Crowell of Brattleboro !;
Secretary of state, Archibald o. Fer
guson of Burlington; Auditor, G. S.
Parker of Elmore; Treasurer, A. B.
Bixby of Poultney. Congresmen
First District, Peter Dakin of Fer
risburg Second District, G. w.
Wyman of Brattleboro.
Resolutions were adopted stamping
the manufacture and traffic in al
coholic liquors as a high crime de-
handing rigid prohibition amend
ments to the state and national con-
situations and laws; condemning in
timidation of voters; favoring equal
suffrage of women; calling for the
abolition of the internal revenue sys-
tenn whereby the government derives
support from the greatest national
vice; proclaiming the need of a pro-
hibition party in Vermont, because
the dominant party continues in Of
flee men not in sympathy with exist
ing laws, and inviting the co-opera-
ton and sympathy of all citizens.
The balance of the afternoon and
evening was occupied in speeches
by Samuel Dickie of Michigan, chair
man of the national committee, Mrs.
ex-Gov. Wallace of Indiana and Rev.
j. r. Bartlett, Secretary of the New
Hampshire state committee.
The attendance and spirit was
such as not to enthuse those present,
much less to create an influence that
would be felt to any appreciate ex-
tent at the coming election. Con-
siderable money has been raised, and
the tramp lecturers and others from
without the state who are so anxious
for the welfare of Vermont will
doubtless, be on the ground frequent
enough to get what money the treas
urer collects.

Death Of Emperor Frederick.

Emperor Frederick of Germany

distressing malady, cancer in the

Our Fritz, beloved by the whole
people. He was distinguished alike
for his genial and manly qualities
as man and for abilities in every
sphere to which he was called. The
brilliant renown of his father who

reer, detracting possibly from the
renown of his son. Frederick mar
ried Victoria, daughter of Queen
Victoria of Great Britain in 1858.

eight years of age, is proclaimed
emperor and there Is no apparent
change in the affairs of the great
