A short time ago a public spea
Hon. G. G. Benedict:

A short time ago public speaker
said "the last (republican) rose of
summer was blooming" in Vermont
through postmaster Wing of Mont
pelier. This touched the feelings of
Hiram, the mighty boss, and he VOW
ed that he would nip the petals of
this ''last rose,' and Immediately
started for Washington. The up
shot of the matter is neatly told in
the following poem from the Burling-
ton Free Press:
In prominent town in the state of Yer
mont
1.-THE last rose of summer was blooming,
Which greatly offended a newspaper man
Named 'Hiram the First, the assuming"
Said Hiram to s'Brad, sit is really too bad
That this last rose should be so presuming
And the fact that it blooms right under
my nose
Does not suit my manner of pruning"
"Now mind what l say, I'll start righ
away
And go to the head of the nation,
And its petals I'll nip, and its Wing viii
clip,
And I'll pluck this last rose from its sta
ton"
So Chewing a clove) he went to Sc
"Grove,"
His musket with seven charges loaded:
But when he returned his powder he''

surprise in the SITTER of the 22d ult. your
remarks about the Voice" We have
been subscriber and careful reader of
the Voice since it first started, little
more than three years ago, and we consid-
er il one of the most honorable, truthful,
reliable as well as able papers with which
we are acquainted. From personal knowl-
edge of the publishers we confident
ly say that they are honorable Christian
gentlemen, who are above cherishing ha.
tired or malice towards any persons Oh
parties, yet, they are fearless in their adj
yocacy of what they believe to be right
and in their denuncIations of duplicity
double dealing and trickery by whatever
persons or parties practiced. The voic,

THE OLD HOUSE.
BY b. II. ALBEE.

Deserted and alone like sentinel grim,
Looked the house on the scene below,
While the trees above with outstretched
limbs
Tossed their branches to and fro.
Bleak and chill blew the wintry blast,
And it shrieked up the chimney wide
1t told of the days that long since past,
Of the birth, the bier, the bride.
1 listened awhile to it's shrieks and
To the story it seemed to tell
| heard the laugh, the sob, the groan,
As it's cadences rose and fell.
The bells chime sweet in the au, umn air
IT'S marriage they herald no v,
A groom more grand, bride moi fair,
Meier spoke the solemn vows.
Now hearts are happy and hearts are ad
Asa son leaves the old roof-tree,
To make him home-he seems but lad
And his bride is as young as he.
One by one they leave the place
i The parents are all alone;
The forms are bent-once full of grace
The lustrous looks are gone.
The bells ring now, bnt tits solemn AM
slow
They strike the funeral knell,
, The voice is hushed, the footstep low,
And bosoms with sorrow swell.
Side by side-hands silently grasped
The father and mother sleep
The hands that years before were claspe
In VOWS they promised to keep.
.sAshes to ashes; dust to dust
TITS the sound of the parsons voice.
l "Ashes to ashes: dust to DUST" :.
Yet he bids the heart rejoice.
A mass of ruins the old house stands,
And the wind in winter means
Through the assures and cracks dow
! the chimney tall
e Told me all with signs and groans.

Echoes from the Press
The Editors Worst Torment.

The Editors Worst Torment.
The man who does not appreciate
the fact that every moment of a news
paper mans time is valuable, and
that his legitimate duties demand his
closest attention during all of his
hours at his desk, without unnecessary
distractions, is a bore who should
never be allowed to enter a newspa-
per office. His class, unfortunately
is a large one, and makes its presence
uncomfortably felt in every newspa-
per office. He is one of the biggest
bores known in all the circles of news
paperdom.-Stephen o. Sherman in
The Writer.
The Londonderry sifter. (South Londonderry, Vt.) 1883-19??, 1888-04-05

interests of the country demand the de-
struction Of the liquor tratic, and that
political party pledged to that policy Is
the most sure means for its destruction,
yet, it encourages every measure which
it believes will tend to lessen OF restrict
the evils of the saloon where 1t can be
done without compromise of principle,
regarding half loaf(o less better than
none at ALL" poovlding always the half
loaf is free from poison. The Voice Is
striking heavy blows at the saloon and
of course is exciting the hatred of
the liquor men, their allies and sympa'
thizers. Some idea of the standing and
character of the paper may be gained from
the fact that 1t has a larger percentage OF
eminent Christian men and ministers a.
mong its supporters and patrons than any
other political paper in the world with
the same circulation. This could not bt
so if it was not thoroughly reliable anc
HIGHLY moral paper.
The greatest conflict is before the A
merican people that has ever engaged GU
attention, the home against the saloon
The forces are marshaling ON either side
and if one wishes to keep informed oil
both sides we do not believe he can d.
better than to read the Voice. No hor
orable person will attempt to criticise
condemn persons or parties until they al
thoroughly informed in regard to the p'
t sition they occupy and their reasons &c
I occupying that position. 1t is certaih'
true that no man with an exalted sense
Justice would expect to learn the TIL
i character of another from his enemie
neither could one reasonably expect
e learn the objects, aims and reasons for
o prohibition party by reading the dem
cratic OF republican papers.

The letter of B. D. Harris of Brattle-
boro, who has been prominently mentioned
in connection with the republican nomina
ton for governor of Vermont, in which
he steps aside in favor of W. P. billing
ham of Waterbury, is strong, manly anc
magnanimous document. The more the
letter is studied by the people of that
state the better they will appreciate The

he has taken himself out of the line
