POLITICAL ASA ssINA TON.

The assassination of Ohm M. Clay
ton in Arkansas cannot be lightly
passed over and we are pleased to
see that Gov. Eagle has applied to
the legislature for authority to offer
a large reward for the capture of the
ASA ssin. Mr.. Clayton was securing
evidence to contest c. R. Breckin-
ridges seat i'll Congress and was I'M
doubtedly killed by "a political enemy.
If this shotgun policy is to include
republican candidates as well as ne
gro voters isn't it about time to cry
a halt. Much is expected of the next
president and the republican congress
but if they can establish q fair count
in the South and secure to every citi-
zen political freedom and personal
safety a step in advance will be taken
equal in Importance to the signing of
the emancipation proclamation.

Vermont at the Centennial.

1t has been decided to have every
company in the Vermont regiment
attend the Washington centennial
celebration in April, and the route
will probably be by New London.
The troops will take the night boat
at New London for New York, arriv-
ing at the latter city early the next
morning They will be in the metrop-
oils Tuesday, the 3Oth, starting for
home that night. 1t is estimated
that about $500 will be required to
transport the Vermont troops to and
from New York city at the time of
the Washington centennial celebra-
ton. A band of music will probably
accompany the regiment, and the
BrattlebOro band has been mention
ed. OF the amount necessary to be
raised to transport the troops, $1,000
has already been secured through pri-
vate subscriptions. DR.. w. S. Webb
pledged 5000.
