CONGRESSIONAL POLITICS.
E. F. GRISWOLD

Congressman Stewards announce
ment that this would be his last term
in the House has precipitated lively
scrimmage in the First district and
the journals in that district vie with
one another in shouting the praises
of Judge Henry Powers for Stew
arts place. But the political pot
is simmering in the Second district
too and there is a man down in
Brattleboro who is ready to sue
coed Grout without waiting for the
latter to initiate Mr.. Stewards &C
ton Here are a few comments from
our exchanges.
1t is said that politics over in Gen
CIRCUITS district will be lively the
coming summer. There are several
embryonic statesmen there who
want to step into the generals con-
gressional shoes. The Brattleboro
post office fight is being used against
him. Richford Gazette.
The voters of this state have so
poor an OPINION OF the honesty OF
political moves that they fairly howl
in derision when they learn that Con
gresham Grout has said that he
should not urge his own reelection
but if the people desired he would
not refuse it. Can nothing good
come from Nazareth p Mortified
News.
In regard to Gen. Grout as candi-
date for another term in the House,
we think it safe to say that he will
make no effort to retain the position
by any solicitation of support, or by
any political wirepulling. If the peo-
pie call him to serve them another
term, he will do his duty as faithfully
and conscientiously as heretofore

EDITOR C. M. STONE
Dies Suddenly at Jacksonville, Florida,
Early Wednesday Morning.

The sad news came from Jackson
vile, Fla, Wednesday morning that
c NJ Stone passed away quietly
that morning.
Mr.. and Mrs. Stone and Mr.. and
Mrs T. NJ Howard left for Florida
last week Tuesday, to be absent
a month or more. Before the party
had reached Washington Mr.. Stone
caught cold and remained in his berth
until Jacksonville was reached. Here
he was removed to a hotel and medi-
cal aid summoned. 1t was found
that his right lung was congested
and he was quite feverish. Yet it
was not supposed that he was dan
gerousIy sick and few outside the
family friends were aware that he
was sick at all The end came quiet
" Wednesday morning
Mr. Stone was born in Lyndon,
April IS, 1898, and was the son of
Dea Charles Stone. Until he was
about II years old he lived on his
fathers farm about a mile below the
village of Lyndon, worked on the
farm and attended school at Lyndon
academy In the spring of 1919 he
came to St. Johnsbury and entered
the CALIFORNIAN office as an appren
tice The Caledonian was then
owned by its founder, the late A. G.
Chadwick Some years after George
ID. Rand, now an architect in Boston,
bought an interest in the paper and
the firm became Chad wick & Rand.
On Iulv IA, 1855, this firm was sue
ceeded by the firm of Rand, Stone &
Co. In April, 1857, {. NJ. Stone
bought out Mr. Rand and until Jan.
l, 1889, was sole owner of the paper.
His son, Arthur F. Stone, bought q
half interest in the paper in 1889.
Mr.. Stone married Sarah, daughter
of Gov. Erastus Fairbanks, on May
4. 1853. Four children were born to
them, Mary E., Arthur F., Philip II.
and Emily Louise. The latter died
on Aug. /, 1875, aged 2O12 months.
Mrs. Stone and the three children
survive him. The party left Jackson
vile Wednesday at $50 p. m. and
are expected here Friday night.
The life of c NJ Stone has been
written in his life-work, the St. Johns
bury Caledonian. Just Al years he
has been connected with this office
and for nearly 80 years he has been
proprietor In this long period of
service his pen was never laid down
and even in vacations the readers of
this paper received regular letters
giving a vivid description of what he
saw. He was one of the oldest edi-
korsain the state, vigorous writer,
s staunch defender of the right, a
nam of strong and independent con
EietiOns and of strict business integ
kr5tv. The church, the town, and the
press of the state have met with q
great loss.

CROSSING THE MTG

Dear CaledOnian:-
Will YOU allow me through your
columns to write to many personal
friends III st. Johnsbury and vicinity,
each of whom it would be impossi
bic for me to address Individually,
hoping they will consider it as a per
sonaI to themselves.
The writer sailed from Boston Feb.
1st on Cunard steamship PavOnia
bound for Liverpool. 1t might seem
a little strange that one should
choose the slower boats that leave
this port III place of those from New
York but always was home boy,
and my first desire to cross the big
pond" dated from the time when III
nv teens | used to sit Saturday at
ternoons, my feet hanging from the
end of Central wharf, and gaze with
longing eyes at the tall red stacks of
the Cunard steamers lying at their
dock in East Boston, hoping one day
to take passage in them The wish
has finally been gratltled-
This steamship was to sail at Z a.
m and, not of late being accustomed
to early rising, thought best to go
on board the evening previous to en-
sure my leaving when she did. |
have caught trains sometimes after
they have left the station, but had
grave doubts about making any sue
cess chasing a steamer. | have III
memory that first nights slumbers,
broken by the sound of the steam
windlass loading freight, and a sense
of strangeness in all my surround
ings; yet the following morning
was up bright and early in order not
to miss one of the preparatory move
ments of leaving. | felt as | walked
the deck with my transportation
papers in my pocket, that | was part
owner of the famous Cunard line;
still was willing the ship should be
navigated by moreexperiencedh heads.
The crew were busily engaged taking
down the hosting gear and slowing
away in the forecastle all the rigging
used in port At 40 the Pavonia
backed from her moorings; as soon
as she cleared the wharf, two putting,
blowing tugs, the Vine" and the
Emily, came up and nOsing onto
her bows helped turn the big Cum
arder eastward; when this was ac-
complished the signal was given
which set her engines in motion
which were not stopped till we reach
ed England, 5000 miles away
The run down the harbor to the
Boston Light occupied one hour, the
Emily" accompanying US for the
purpose of taking off the pilot.
When the Light was reached, the
tug came alongside, made fast to the
steamer, ladder was thrown down
on which the pilot took his leave,
the parting salute was given, the
Emily" turned her bows toward
