Col. A. p. Blunt CompIimented.


Adjutant General R. G. Drum. by
direction of the secretary of war, has
forwarded to Col. A. P. Blunt of Dam
vile and member of Chamberlin post
G.. A. R., the following preamble and
resolutions adopted by the board of
military prison commissioners relating
to Col. Blunt's efficiency while in
charge of the Fort Leavenworth
prison
Whereas, Captain and Brevet Colo
uel A. P. Blunt, Assistant Quartermas-
ter, U. S. army, who=has been on
continuous duty at the military. prison
since June 4, 1875, has asked to be re-
lieved from further service for the
reason of failing health.
Be it resolved, by the board of
commissioners of said prison that, in
recommending the granting of Colonel
Blunt's request, they give formal ex-
preston to their sympathetic regret
for its reason, and their high apprecia
tion of the earnest zeal and ably direct
ed efforts, exhibited by him in his ad-
ministration of its affairs, through which
it has become an institution for penal
and reformatory purposes such as its
organic act contemplated.
Colonel Blunt's concientious atten-
tion to every detail of the many
industries at the prison, inaugurated
and nutured through his marked busi-
ness capacity, and his successfully
persistent aim to return the convicts to
society after the expiration of their
terms of confinement, better men NOR
ally, and better fitted to earn liveli-
hood than they were when they entered
the prison, entitle him to the lasting
gratitude of all citizens who believe in
the advancement of humanity, and for
which the commissioners extend to
him their heartfelt thanks.
The Secretary of War desires to
take this occasion to express his cor
dial concurrence in the sentiments
conveyed by the prison commissioners
in their resolution, and, while he con-
siders it no more than the duty of
every public officer to use his best
talents and energy in the service of
the government, it is gratifying to him
thus to refer to the valuable service
you have rendered through a series of
years in a special department of official
duty which merits appropriate ac-
acknowledgement.

The Railroad ShoDs,


There have been no specially new
developments concerning the proposed
return of the railroad shops to this
place during the week. Lyndonville
people are moving in the matter of Sc
curing the retention of the works there.
Ex-Gov. Fairbanks, in accordance
with the action of the committee ap-
pointed at the citizens meeting here
has written Superintendent Mellen re-
questing that he make an appointment
to meet the committee personally and
Mr.. Mellen has answered the above
letter expressing a willingness to meet
the committee which will probably be
brought about at an early date. Till
then there is nothing to be said as re-
CARDS the possibilities or probabilities
of the removal of the shops.
Meanwhile rumor is afloat that it is
not among the impossibilities that the
Boston & Maine may throw up their
leases of the Boston & Lowell system
altogether and thus the entire question
of road management revert back to
the Boston & Lowell system. 1t is
said in railroad circles that the Con-
cord road shows IL disposition to end
the fighting in that quarter and that,
while it's management is disposed to be
friendly to some arrangement with the
Boston & Lowell, they are not so to-
ward the Boston & Maine. Just what
effect this change back, should it oc-
cur, wonld have on the removal of the
Lyndonville shops only those who
know the real value of railroad rumors
can tell.
