1t should be remembered that the rail-
road meeting Is next Saturday at l p. m.
sharp, and as the question is to be decid-
ed by a majority of the voters present,
everybody can see the Importance of be-
ing out. In our mention of matters con-
corning the railroad question we have de
signed to be entirely impartial, using
quotations only when calling attention to
the points in issue, and offence taken
thereto must be inspired by n spirit of in
justice. We are aware that feeling is at
high tide and that people are liable to
say things that in time they will regret,
but this gives no occasion on the part Of
either party to make threats of what will
or will not happen if this or that vote is
not cast so and so. 1t should not be for
gotten that the people of Vermont are in
telligent freemen, having q perfect right
to vote as they think best, and all bull
doing language from whatever source it
may come will only strengthen them in
their purpose to exercise their inalien-
able right of free suffrage.

The transition from long, lingering and
painfuI sickness to robust health marks
an epoch in the life of the individual.
Such a remarkable event is treasured in
the memory and the agency whereby the
good health has been attained is grateful
" blessed. Hence it is that so much is
heard in praise of Electric Bitters. SO.
many feel that they owe their restoration
to health to the use of the great altera-
tive and tonic. If yOn are troubled with
| any disease of kidneys. liver or stomach,
of long or short standing, o will surely
find relief by using Electric Bitters. Sold

there was less excitement than during the last
few days OF last week, while a firm TO 51rOng
tone marked the dealings from the opening to
the close Traders were inclined to sell the list
on the theory that the short interest had been
entirely eliminated from the market, aud in
some shares they did succeed in causing small
reactions, and in others in preventing an ad'
vance which otherwise might have ken place.
Transactions in oregon Trenscontinentai were
smaller and Of less prominence, though the

This ngure however, was not exceeded during
