City politics is pretty uncertain quantity
especially when the Democratic factions are
irving to cut each others threats. Up to this
time it has been generally taken for granted
that Tammany and the County Democracy
would each have candidate for Mayor In the
field. 1t is now said that both the Cleveland
influence and the Hill influence are being ex-
erted in favor of coalition and that the nomi-
nation this year may cause as great surprise
as that of MIR. Hewitt two years ago. This is
possible, but in the maze Of uncertainties that
prevails, the only thing that appears certain is
that Tammany will consent to no union unless
ft can name the head Of the ticket. From its
point of view Tammany got bad bargain In
Mayor Hewitt, and it is not disposed TO repeat
the experience.

1t is said that the saloon keepers are to con-
tribute $225,00O toward the Governors cam
paign expenses (Which will not be paid this
year out of fat Aqueduct contracts that rob the
city as directly as though "job" had been
done with jimmy'), and that tax is to be
laid on the product of the brewers that will
turn in the sum of 81 "a. 900. These state
ments make 1t clear that the desperate efforts
to be put forth in behalf of Hill are not to be
overcome without vigorous and unceasing work
on the part Of all friends of morality, temper
pnce, decency and good order.
There are many queer customs in this world.

Second District Convention.
Gen. GrOut unanimously re.nOm.
inated-A deserved cOmpli.
ment to an able repre-
sentative.

At the I'd district Congressional
convention held at Montpelier, last
week Wednesday, Gen. W. w. Grout
was re-nominated by reclamation.
This was DESIRED tribute to an able
and efficient representative. Gen.
Grout has been one of the most in
dustrious members of this and the
proceeding Congresses, and has fair
ly earned the high rank that he has
taken as statesman and representa-
tive of an intelligent Vermont con-
stituency. Gen. Grout predicts a
Republican majority, this fall in this
State, of 10000. The SITTER propo-
ses to show its appreciation of his
labors in Congress by doing its full
share towards making his prediction
true, and thereby to add to his own
already overwhelming majority.

Letters from the People.

Mr.. Editor: While reading the
tariff inquiry in your issue of the 21st,
l thought of few questions which l
should like to ask "Your Protection
ist( p" about the Mills bill.
If it is wrong to do wrong, why is
it not wrong to do so under any cir
cumstances? If it is wrong to protect
the Northern industries, why is it not
wrong to protect the Southern indus
tries also? If it is wrong to protect
the wool, wheat and potato industries,
why is it right to protect sugar, rice
and the rest of the Southern indus
tries which the Mills bill is SO care
full to protect? If "Your Protection
list" z? believes, as most of his allies
do, that protection is wrong, he must
think it entirely wrong, for if it is
wrong to rob man of dollar, it is
wrong to rob him of a dime. The
same must apply to the tariff. If he
thinks protection is wrong he must be
free trader, and why don't the free
traders come out openly and acknowl-
edge it, instead of calling themselves
tariff reformers instead of being like
our striped snakes hiding in holes in
the ground?
Whatreason can "Your Protection
lists" p give why the Mills bill
changes so many articles from the
present specific to the ad valorem du-
ties, these producing fraud and I'M
LIBERALIZATION? Why are iron and
steel cotton ties placed on the free
list and a duty of l IA cents per
pound placed on the same when used
for any other purpose? Why favor
bill framed outside of the commit
tee on ways and means without heed
to the testimony of representatives of
the industries all over the country
a bill framed for the benefit of the
British manufactures? | am sorry
for the British laborers, but not so
sorry as to reduce our own labores on
a ylevel with them, as free traders
would like to have us do. To expose
our industries to competition from
Great Britain and India, to love thy
neighbor better than myself is not a
divine law, only Grover Cleveland's
commandment.
Our surplus is too large, but why
not reduce it by buildings, new for
tifications and stronger navy; by
paying the old soldier what is due
them by making up what the govern
ment paid them in deprecated cur
rency, only worth 40 cents on a dol
lar; by putting sugar, tobacco and
alcohol used in the arts and for medi.
cinal purposes on the free list, and
then if we have a surplus let the sec.
rotary of the treasury purchase the
United States bonds, as he clearly
has right to do, or let them divide
, it among the states as it was divided
when they had loyal Democratic
: President Andrew jackson? But
let our industries be protected. II
free trade is better than protection,
why has S,OOO,OOO British subjects

Mr.. o. L. French of the Phoenix
gave great offence to the Young
Mems Republican Club of Brattleboro
by mentioning in his paper that A..
A. Buutterfield seemed to be the on
ly man spoken of for county senator
from that end. This was a grave
offense, indeed, for an old Republi-
can to commit, and perhaps justified
these young bloods in Hitting him in
the county convention. If brother
French did this without consulting
this Club all that can be said is that
Hes old enough. and big enough, and oughter
known better"
However, we are inclined to think
that he will survive it, and that these
young fellows will feel easier after
they get through teething; and if
they ever arrive at that stage where
they can, with safety, discard their
birds eye linen they may conclude
that they didn't make the party,
after all.

The County Convention.
An Enthusiastic Republican
Gathering.

The Republican county convention
held at Newfane last Friday was a
representative Republican gathering
and It's proceedings were characteri-
zed by harmony and good feeling,
the only ripple being in reference to
the senatorship from the south end.
In this case ballot was had, and
the only one, all other nominations
being made by reclamation.
The convention was called to order
by the chairman of the county COM
mittee, j. w. Melendy of London
derry, who introduced Rev. Mr..
Smith of Townshend who invoked the
Divine blessing. A call of the roll
brought out the fact that every town
in the county was represented except
Somerset. The chairman named Hon.
j. L. Martin as temporary president.
Hosea B. Ballou of Nottingham and
Judge L. NJ. Reed of Bellows Falls
were chosen temporary vice-presi-
dents with A. n. Swain of Bellows
Falls, secretary. Upon motion this
organization was made the permanent
one. After the appointing of COM
mittee on resolutions and one to nom
mate county committee the conven-
ton adjourned for dinner.
