CuEVALIER NOTES,

The late Grand Cantonment at The
Wiers, N. H., was so notable an event
in the his DRY of Bennington Odd Eel
lows that we copy few notes thereof
from the Concord Daily Monitor as
follows:
Ten Of the twelve members Of Maj N. NJ. Puff
fer's staff, first battalion 81 Vermont were pres
ent, and they were a solid looking lot OF men.
Canton Bennington Of Vermont combined bust.
II stopped over at Rutland one night and assisted
in mastering in a canton Of y members In that
city.
An up North Rebekah said that the men present
at the cantonment were the best looking lot she
ever saw, Whether she meant those in uniform
or otherwise has not yet been determined by our
informant Being In uniform himself, however,
he is inclined to think she must have meant the m.
and consequently admires her taste.
Vermont now boasts OF having a complete
chain Of lodges from upwards without a missing
link. New Hampshire OF Vermont, with possibly
single exception, are the only Jurisdictions un.
der the Sow Or Lodge that can claim such hon
or. In tins connection It may be said that Yer.
mont Is now enjoying "A boom In the Oorder that
It has not experienced for years. Evidently some
live men are now looking after its interests.
We seldom hear OF u mile = minute train SER

elsewhere, except on the most Hyerably located
railroads. This speed a. nearly attained, how

"The Old Man of the Sea-"

Mr.. EditOr:-There appeared in last
weeks issue of the Bloomington De
grader" an article suggesting to the
members of the Young Republican Club
Of this village, that they put whiskey
and beer on tap at their headquarters.
Now while the suggestion emanated
from its proper source, the members are
fearful that more Democrats than Re
publicans would be attracted by such a
move, and that Jim" would change his
politics if that were made a sine que non
to his membership in full standing. It's
true that Jim" would count one moro
vote, but his presence would score 30
heavily the other way that the ex-
pediency OF the plan is doubted. No
no Let the other side keep their "Old
Man of the Sea-"

Town Representative.

BENNINGTON, VI, Aug. 18th, 1888.
Mr., EditOr:-The citizens of Benning-
ton within the last few years, have had
their local pride somewhat gratified by
the location in their midst OF the Sol
diers' Home, and Bennington Battle Mon.
unent. Still there are other public en-.
terprises, which ought to come to us be-
cause the interests of the State would be
subserved thereby.
Our success now as in the past, de-
ponds much upon the influence Of our
Representatives at Montpelier, and
many think that we should be repre-
scented by the man who would be likely
to have the most influence on general
legislation, and in the continuance Of
present public enterprises among US
upon firm basis.
In looking for such a man the
thoughts Of many, Democrats as well as
Republicans, turn first TO Major A. b.
Valentine. His success as Senator, his
pride IN his State and town, and his
time aud energy given for the advance.
ment of both, is well known.
We do not know as Maj. A. b. Valen-
tine would desire the position. We do
know that he does not expect it, would
do nothing to secure it, aud would enter
into no competition with any political
friend but if with great unamnity the
voters of this town should nominate
him to represent the town in the legis-
lature the coming fall there is reason to
hope, that he would accept such n5min-
alton and perhaps be Rratilied by the
confidence shown.
We believe his nomination would
meet with more favor than that Of any
other man, and result in his election by
large majority,
Can the iowa do better We think
not REPUBLICAN.

The PoIYhrmnia Concert

Announced for Tuesday, Aug. 2lst and
mentioned elsewhere in these columns,
is an event worthy of more than casu-
al announcement.
1t is the second concert to be given by
the POlyhymnia quartette, the first one
having been given as we all remember
in Apollo hall last November. Of its
reception at that time the quartette re-
tains the most grateful recollection.
Several months of constant practice
have since elapsed and there is no doubt
that they will amply justify and confirm
the public impressions already made.
Prof. Bradford has kindly consented
to read and he is well enough known to
to need no recommendation to Benning-
tonians. Our only regret is that we can
hear him so seldom.
Mr.. Fred A. Flagg of North Adams,
who has made many friends among US
since his first appearance here year
and half ago, will give us the pleasure
of again hearing his magnificent voice
upon this occasion, and Master Eugene
has been often heard and applauded by
the audiences of his native city, will
then make his first appearance here.
DuJ unOIG Illdll all are we uuAlOuS W
hear again in his native town the fam
Gus voice of Mr.. Henry Squires. Ben
ningtonians remember well their unfal-
tering interest and pride in the vocal
triumphs of our celebrated townsman
whose laurels were won in Australia
and Europe as well as in America, whom
the divine Patti chose for her primo
tenore to accompany her on her star
ring tour of the United States, and who
for so many years has resided 80 far
away from us in Paris, the center of
music, art and civilization. There are
some of us who heard him in 1870 the
last time that his voice has been heard
here publicly, and some who have had
to cross the water to listen to him. But
at last here at home and among our
selves we have an opportunity, which
we all gratefully appreciate. of hearing
him again. Only those whose hearts he
has thrilled can realize how rare treat
is prepared for us. But this is not all
Mrs. Squires also has kindly consented
to add to our pleasures by herself sing
ing for us on this occasion. 1t is not
often that this lady has oflate yielded to
public requests of this nature she has
reserved her voice to be the delight of
her intimate friends and of them only,
but kind fortune has combined with
the many and urgent wishes of her
friends and on Tuesday evening we may
all have the pleasure of hearing this re-
nowned cantatrice and charming lady.

ANIu1sumAN ON THE SITUATION

Patrick Ford in the Irish World lover
his own signature), of Aug. 18th, 1888
says, among other things
One of the false notions they have Civ
en- currency to is this; II on the adOp-
ton of Free trade, wages fall, what mat
ter If things are cheap.p But the cost
of living does not go down with wages.
Thirty years ago wages fell, but flour
ran up from s. per barrel to $l5 per
barrel. At that time calico was selling
at tS cents yard-imported from Eng
land today when the workingmen is in
position to pay better price, he gets
his calico for seven cents a yard-Amer-
lean manufacture. The times referred
to were the times of Free Trade and low
wages, Today in lands where labor is
paid 20 cents to ~ cents, the cost Of liv-
in, on the American standard, lis fully as
high as ii is in this country.
In no country can the people be well
TO do where the accepted economic pol
icy is to reduce wages to the minimum.
And wages in every country must inev-
itably be brought down to the lowest
wht the labor of that country il forced
to compete with the i'll paid wages of
other lands. Now, the maxim of the
Free Traders ia Buy in the cheapest
MARKET" The result, Of course, is OBJ
viuus.
When labor is diversified and home
industries are protected work is plen-
tiful and the workers are well paid
Then two jobs run after one workman.
But if foreigners in foreign lands are
given to do our work, because they offer
to do il cheaper, to that extent workmen
| in our own land are reduced to enforced
| idlenpss. Then the spectacle is presented
of two men running after one Job, at
lower wages than before. The two
workmen now compete not only with
each other but with the foreigner over
I the sen also, whose miserable wages
under Free Trade must regulate theirs /;
and tho workman who gets the job at
| the cut throat price must not only sup
port himself and his family on that wage
hut lsiuDe labor pays all eKpensesl he
must likewise sustain the enforced idleT
in the pOOrhOuse on somewhere else.
Now. o situation OF affairs ia brought
about when every American citizen
must be- practical on the question raised
The man who believes in protection
10 American labor cannot consistently
vote Cor Cleveland and Thurman, and
the man " no favors Free Trade cannot
logically support the platform on which
Harrison nd Morton stand. There are
lurprisingl y foolish things done in this
world; but to me 1t does seem impossi-
bic for the American people, on an issue
60 ehurply defined as this tariff question
is to deliberately vote for their own
rum,
