To Extend Circulation.

The energy with which the mailing
department of the Burlington Free
Press is conducting the great circula-
ton campaign of that able paper has
suggested that some other Vermont
papers might extend their circulation
in the same manner. Our neighbor
the Free Press assures the people of
Vermont that, purely as business
matter and wholly aside from politics,
it has decided upon an extensive dis
tribution of sample copies DURING
THE NEXT FEW WEEKS. What's the
reason that any business policy which
so ably conducted paper as the
Free Press deems it wise to adopt is
not worthy of adoption on the part of
the less pretentious papers of the
State? The News AND CITIZEN
would like to increase its circulation
and if perchance anyone who has not
previously subscribed to our paper
should receive free sample copy, he
need not be alarmed, but may simply
understand that like the Free Press
the News AND CITIZEN deems this an
opportune time in which to make an
effort to increase its circulation"

A New Accession.

Another paper has been added un-
reservedly to the Page column. This
is the Barre Enterprise, which an
nounced in its last issue the retire
ment of Mr.. Thayer from all interest
in the paper, which is now owned by
the Barre Enterprise Company, with
Mr.. w. F. Scott, former proprietor,
as publisher. Mr.. Scott is Lamoille
County boy and knows of whom he
speaks when he places his paper
straight in the Page line as follows:
'sIn regard to the future political
complexion of the paper, it will aim
to treat all parties fairly. On the
present governor question, believing
Hon. c. S. Page as justly entitled to
the nomination as any other man in
the State, it heartily supports him for

A SANDER Refuted.

The News AND CITIZEN calls the
attention of its readers to an article
reprinted this week from the Barton
M0HitOy, considering at length Ger
tain charges against Carroll S. Page.
Mr.. Page has heretofore considered
these charges too contemplate to
notice, but advices received from
every county in the State assure him
that determined and methodical eff
fort is being made to "work" this
SANDER L" for all it is WORTH" In fact,
an Ex-Governor of Vermont and a
warm friend of Col Woodbury. re-
marked, we are informed, that this
and this only, could defeat Mr.. Page
Acting therefore under the advice of
his political friends he permits this
brief statement of the facts in the case:
Mr.. Pages father, owing to a seri-
Gus spinal injury, has been for nearly
half a century a confirmed invalid.
For years prior to and during a greater
part of the war he was conducting
a somewhat extensive business. While
the father could sit in the office and
plan, the active part of the business
devolved upon Carroll, who was an
only son. From the time Carroll was
fifteen years of age he was sent to
New York, Boston, Troy, Albany,
Montreal and other large centres to
sell the hides, wool, and other barter
collected in the fathers business and
to purchase the goods sold by him.
He was eighteen when the war broke
out. His name was at all times borne
upon the enrolment. Had he been
drafted and absented himself he
would have been a deserter, exiled
from home so that he could not have
rendered his father the assistance in
business which by reason of the lat
ter's infirmities was almost an alb
solute necessity. The town of Hyde
Park kept its quota so full that it had
but one draft and by the Provost
MarshaPs order $500 would have
secured exemption from service there
under.
A bare statement of these facts is
sufficient to show the groundlessness
of the charges.

Office Seeking Methods.

The Free Press announced Tuesday
its discovery, through a correspon-
dent, of the fact that Mr.. Page has
written letters inquiring as to the
preference of Republicans in certain
localities between the two candidates
for the governorship. Mr.. Page
pleads guilty to the charge. He de
sired the information sought and
asked for it and the pleasant part of
it is that the information he has re-
ceived is of the most cheering kind.
Mr.. Page signs his own name to these
letters of inquiry. He hasn't a State
official at hand to do it for him. We
may add that we think the Free Press
would look in vain for any letter from
Mr.. Page asking for support
One thing more may be said in Mr..
Pages favor. He has been out of
Lamoille County but once this year,
except to go to New York or Boston
on legitimate business, or in atten-
dance upon a member of his family
whose illness has kept him in the
latter city the greater part of the time
for the last four weeks.
Is it proper to ask the free Press
if its candidate has as clean a record
as regards ofice-seeking?

= Solid Home Virtue.

Economy isa virtue which is needed
| everywhere. No matter if persons
are rich or have large incomes, they
should be economical. To waste is
wicked. There are better ways to
spend money and goods than to
waste them. 1t is the poorest use
they can be put to.
Many people would be economical
If they knew how. 1t is an art to
practice economy. To do it well one
must know the art. All can have it
if they will. tits an arithmetical art
1t is the conclusion of numbers. All
must live and ought to live well, but
how to live best at the least expense
IS the work of figures to tell. We
must count the cost of ways and
means and compare them.
Many people use expensive articles
OF food and dress when cheaper ones
would be IN every way better and
more serviceable. Especially in regu-
lating the table expenses is there a
great want of economy. Awise econ
omy IN table expenses is favorable to
health, and in this way saves time,
drugs, expense, and doctors bills,
flesh, strength, and happiness.
One OF the best evidences of a well
ordered economy lacking not only to
the present but providing for the dire
contingencies of the future is a policy
OF insurance in some good company.
Fire is a good servant but a hard
master, and may come with distroy-
ing hand at any time and demand
the savings OF a lifetime of the most
rigid economy as it's sacrifice.
Is it not then an inconsistency to
save and economic all through life
that one may have a competence in
old age without once looking out for
the protection of such savings? The
cost Of such protection is trifling

From the st. JohnsburY Republican.

Our taxpayers do not need to be
told that there has been a steady and
constant growth in the cost of run.
ming this State and that the last leg
islature eclipsed all its predecessors
in it's extravaganza. Still further, all
signs indicate that if the coming leg
islature does not beat the record OF
the last one, it will not be the fault OF
the people who have interests to fur
Their at the expense of the State For
instance, Gov. Dillingham; insane
asylum will cost the State before it is
completed 100000, and the legisla-
ture will ultimately be asked to in
crease its appropriation to that ex-
tent; and there will undoubtedly be
an ample supply of lesser projects for
raiding the State treasury. And the
farmers-as a rule the unprOsperous
farmers-who foot the bills will have
an added burden of heavy taxation
to bear. Think of the farmers of this
State paying half a million dollars to
beautify Waterbury and give Gov.
Dillingham; something to show to
damiring friends !-of giving forty or
fifty thousand dollars to enable a few
dozen people on Grand Isle a chance
to emulate the Israelites by crossing
Lake Champlain dry shod!
Such being the case, the imperative
need of the dayis a man for Governor
who appreciates the hard position
and the heavy burdens of the mass of
the people; who may be depended
upon to stand between them and an
extravagant and wasteful legisla-
ture; who is an economical, prudent
business man, and who will carry into
public affairs the same principlessthat
ensure success in private undertake
ings; a man who possesses a thor
ough knowledge of the State and it's
people.
Such man we have in Mr.. Page,
and in this part of the State, at least,
the public realize the fact.

Brandon Union containing implica-
tions of dishonor in respect to Mr..
Pages "war record" Again we ask
the Free Press-for, after its prudent
fashion, it is simply making a cats
paw of the Union-What do you
mean? If you'll know anything derog-
atory of Mr.. Page-a candidate for a
high office-duty, honor, patriotism
demand that you make 1T known.
For weeks you and your allies have
been flushing the State with injurious
intimations as to this particular can
didate which, if true, should forfeit
him private respect and debar him
from public honor; if untrue, their
authors and disseminatOrs should be
consigned to oblivion and covered
with obloquy. What the people want
to know is, Are these ill-disguised ac-
cusations true, or are they designed
to stab the man who appears to be
a somewhat formidable candidate for
the Governorship? The people like
fair play in politics as in other things,
and we believe they mean to have it.
From the Vergennes Vermonter.
In discussion of the merits of the
rival candidates for Governor and
the claims of the different localities,
it is both profitable and interesting
to look the field over and find out
what Burlington always has had in
the way of patronage, has now, and
what she wants Burlington has
been singularly fortunate in this re-
spect. For many years she has had
a large share of the leading federal
officials; she has had more than her
share of the state officers; she has re-
ceived large donations from private
individuals; her college has been made
substantially a State institution and
at every session of the legislature re-
ceives large appropriation, although
her sister college at Middlebury of as
high standard, has been left out in
the cold, so far as State assistance is
concerned. So far Burlington has
had the bulk of the good things that
come to Vermont; Now, she has a
candidate for nearly every State office
to be filed this tall. She is DESTROYS
of the advancement of Lieut.. Gov.
Woodbury., although the majority of
the voters of Vermontsare decidedly
averse to the promotion" theory.
OF course the Free Press disclaims
any such idea, but every well informed
person believes that with Col. Wood
bury, that rule will be once more
firmly established.
All honor to the old sOldier-to
those who in the dark days of the
civil war risked life and limb for the
perpetuation of liberty. But has not
one of them, in the person of Col.
Woodbury., received honors enough?
Is his war record, honorable though
it be, rewarded as it has been-to
outweigh all other considerations ??
For chief executive of this State we
want a man known for his integrity,
his business ability, his financial
standing and his general knowledge
of men and affairs. All these qualifi-
cations has Carroll S. Page, and in
our opinion, in a greater degree than
any other man now mentioned for
the Office. For these reasons we sup
port him.
