nearly four score years and able to attend to
the duties of judge of probate of Lamoille
county, As we understand it, this mud
throwing" appeared in force from Mr..
Pages own neighbors, 10 years ago, when
he ran as State senator, and for some rea-
son his vote was greatly reduced below his
colleagues on the same ticket Confessedly
there is something peculiar in this case, UNI
like that Of any other prominent man that
has run for office in Lamoille county. We
would do the gentleman no injustice, and
shall be only too glad to make corrections
wherein we are incorrect. Under all the
circumstances, as we understand them. this
present charge Of "mud throwing is far
fetched, unfair, and species of political
trickery. Mr.. Page has not been assailed in
his private character at all, as the New
England Farmer must have known, and as
it does not even claim. On the other hand,
Col. Woodbury. has been charged with being
a rum seller, and by papers that decline to
retract, though the falsity of the charge has
been m ost eifectually proven. Here is where
you may find mud throwing, " if yon would
but look to see.

The School Law.

An Orange county correspondent, refer
ring to tho new school law, says:
some popular dissatisfaction has hitherto
existed with the law which a better acquain-
lance with itg workings will tend to allay.
But this popular dissatisfaction arising large
ly through ignorance has in many cases been
carefully fostered by designing demagogues
who hope through attentive grooming OF this
hobby to ride into the Legislature upon it next
fall. Should the people get their eyes open in
:ho interval these interested, self-s seeking
panders to popular foiOles might find them
se.Yes suddenly left in tie !urcA.
Our correspondent states the case vigor-
ously, but we believe on the whole truth
fully. The popular dissatisfaction which
las hitherto existed with the law disap-
ell with its workings. No ono claims that
The law is faultless. Doubtless tho interests
Of the State would have been better served
had the report Of the committee as origin
ally presented TO the Legislature of 1888
been made a law without amendment. But
of one thing we are positive, 1.-THE law as il
now stands is Increasing in favor with the
people every day, 1t is far from what it
should be, but it Is a stop in advance, and
Intelligent observers are satisfied that it has
given to Vermont a higher grade of teach
ers and higher grade OF schools. Those
who intimate that the law will be repealed
by the next Legislature, and who are doing
what they can to foster and encourage a
feeling Of discomfort in the State, cannot
have the best interests of the cause Of
education in Vermont at heart. Vermont
having taken an advance step will not &C
back. The law should be and undoubtedly
will be amended but it will not be repealed
Its friends and the friends of education in
the Green Mountain State should stand
firmly in Its defence, and should labol
10 strengthen and not to weaken its hold OF
,as people.

More "Coniidential."
From the Windsor Journal

The Morrisville News and Citizen has
column article in defence of MIR. Pages
prerogatives as letter writer. all because
some Windsor county correspondent of the
FREE PRESS forwarded to that paper a
billet doux received by him from Mr.. Page,
asking the drift of gubernatorial public
sentiment, and commenting thereon. This
action was unnecessary on part of our .. c.
There is hardly man of any prominence
in the State who has not received just such
beautiful expressions of esteem, and desire
10 ''reciprocaten on the part of Mr.. Page.
There are many who have even received
numberess epistles of the same nature. \
great many have thus been taken into his
confidential bosom. In fact his passion
for letter writing, and his Unsuitable desire
for knowledge, are so well known, his
''strict' condolences, and candid" requests,
are but public property.
The action of our e. c. further suggests
| the idea that another ''stack of straw has
doomed up before the vision of the vigilant,
keen-eyed head centre of Mr.. Page won
derful literary bureau. Meanwhile the peo-
pie are quietly preparing themselves to de-
monstrate anew that sacrifices in nation S
cause are still worthy of consideration,
And especially so in the case of men like
Mr.. Woodbury., whose empty sleeve is a
! constant reminder of II splendid record as a
soldier, and whose successful public and
private career stamps him as a man of the
| people, thoroughly equipped to discharge
the duties of chief executive with an eye
and hand single to the highest truest, and
best interests of the State.

From the Lyndonville Journal


Some of the Page organs so anxious to
to throw mud, and place Col. Woodbury. in
a position to detract from his popularity in
this campaign have been crying 'ring,n
ring charging that Col. Woodbury. be
longed to several, but the most stress was
put upon tine Central Vermont railroad
ring. This and other charges called out a
reply from Col Woodbury.. In that reply
he not only denied having made any effort
10 secure the influence of the Central Yer
mont management, but implied that his OPP
ponent had done so. This was turn in uf-
fairs that the Page organs had not looked
for and their indiscreton was at once APP
parent, This great sin like the chickens,
had come home to rCOst. Something must
be done in the matter. SO, while the other
organs that had made those charges We're
crawling into their holes. the Montpelier
Waterman, which has not yet committed
itself, and had nothiag else to do. began to
scratch around for the grub that was eating
the Page tap root off so fast. 1t learned
that Mr.. Marsh of Woodstock was the at
toruey alluded TO and at once opened COR
rcspondence with him on the subject Mr..
Marsh after rehearsal of Mr.. Pages many
qualities and fitness for the position of
governor, denies acting as attorney for Mr..
Page in the matter. but admits converse
ton with Mr.. Page last fall in reference to
the Central Vermont and his candidacy for
| governor. and promisedMr. Page he would at
tempt to set him right in this matter, and
later, in connection with other business did
! so. The friends of Mr.. Page can present
this matter in the most plausible manner
possible, and still the fact remains that Mr.
! Page sought for and would gladly have ac-
cepted the aid of the Central Vermont power
| in this matter. If there is any reason a
candidate for governor should not receive
such support, why was Mr.. Page willing
and anxions to secure it Is it honorable in
one case and dishonorable in another

The Now England Farmer and Vermont
Politics.
From the st. Adams Messenger

From the st. Adams Messenger.
The New England Farmer of Boston pro
poses to take a hand in our Vermont politics.
and enters the newspaper list for Mr.. Page.
1t characterizes as 'mud throwing the
fact that ''the Hon. G. S. Page. one of the
candidates, and chairman of the State re-
publican committee, gentleman who has
always been held in high esteem for his UNI
blemis he'd character and business integrity
is now publicly assailed by his opponents be
cause when u lad of - or Is he staid n
homo to assist an invalid father in his bust
ness instead of shouldering his musket and
going to the front against his fathers
wishes. - Indeed The Barton Monitor in
the supposed inter est of Mr., Page, was the
first paper to revive this old matter that has
been torment to Mr. Page ever since the
war, and, as we said at the time, was pro
badly done TO create sympathy for him, to
build n stack of straw in order to set il on
fire But while the farmer in its endeavor
to explain the situation has given itself to
figures, it should he more correct in their
use. Mr.. Page was over Is years of age
whom the war broke out and II long enough
before it closed to have put in good work If
he had desired to. Besides, his father, who
is represented as being an invalid at the
time, Is still living at the advanced age Of

As Viewed by a Nerm ont Farmer.
To the Editor Of the Free Press:

10 the Eu!tOr OF inc rec Press;
EAST BERKSHIRE, May 10th, 1890.
Having read of late. considerable in re-
gard to the nomination Of Mr.. Page of
Hyde Park for governor as opposed 10 Mr..
oodbury; allow me to say that the full
some talk and praise in the interest of the
former gentleman for that office by certain
paper organs east of the mountains can
have and of right, should have no weight at
the nominating convention next month.
The assertion that Mr.. Page has not in
iured and practically destroyed the calf
skin traffic--at least in Nermont) is I'M
tenable.
1t is no argument to urge that be
cause there has been a depression in all
kinds of dairy and farm produce that it
should follow that dairy hides must be cor
respondingly low.
Butter and cheese fell from causes operat-
ing in their disfavor such as the manufac-
ture of oleomargarine as well as the com
petition of the great West, but the calf skin
market has had no unnatural causes oper-
atng to affect it; and the farmers of the
State have derived a considerable revenue
from it, Is it not an undeniable fact that
leather manufactured from calf-skins costs
as much as it ever did? If it does not, why
are boots, shoes and harnesses as high as
they ever were even when butter was 81
ana 40 cents per pound? Dairy hides and
beever hides are not to be COMPOUNDED ms con
trolled by the same ratio Of increase or
decrease, for the great West which furnishes
the bulk of the latter hash more monopo-
ly of the former than the East The plain
| truth of the matter then, as evolved from
| the above facts, is that Mr. Page, having
secured a monopoly of the caifskn trade
has been enabled thereby to suppress smaller
| and less extensive dealers in hides and has
built for himself hourshing industry tC
the manifest detriment Of every farmer o.
| the State Yours, w. III. j.

In weighing the influence of newspaper

tion in the State, only one supports Mr..

The people of Dracut are not yet done
with their selectmen. First these officers
accepted eight thousand dollars from man
for a liquor license. The story Of the out
come of this experiment and its appalling
consequences has been told in the FREE
PRESS. After running his dram shop for
two or three days the liquor dealer return
ed his license and the selectmen paid back
the eight thousand dollars. Now the puz-
FLING question is brought up as to what
right the selectmen have to take eight thou
sand dollars from the town treasury to re
pair their own mistake. The money was
there: it belonged to the town, and the sell
rctmen must eventually account for it,,
They cannot ignore the whole business, and
report that no license was granted. But
whatever they have done, they have done
as agents of the town. The selectmen' S
mistake was in granting the license in the
first instance.
