result: M. w. Davis 2, +. p. Ball
3S. Mr. Balls nomination was then
made Unanimous. The matter of a
senator for the south end was then
taken up and it soon became evident
that a majority of the convention
were by no means inclined to endorse
Smith. An informal ballot showed
the following results, Clark Chan
dler 8, S. A. Smith IS, J. c. New
ton 20. Mr.. Newton protested that
he was not a candidate and that he
doubted somewhat the policy of his
nomination., yet If it became clearly
the will of the convention he would
not shirk the duty but offer himself a
willing sacrifice. A formal ballot
was then taken, f. A. Smith receiv-
ing and j. G.. Newton %. Mr.
Newton's nomination was received
with applause and was made unani-
mons. Following the report of the
committee the matter of assistant
judges was next taken up and Ed4
ward Titus of Wilmington was NOM
mated. Next in order came the
states attorneyship and an informal
ballot was taken. This provoked
some discussion. NJ. A. Davis of
Londonderry said that he was willing
that the convention should have nom-
mated w. j.. ellison but it was re-
fused for the reason that Mr.. Gibson
was democrat. He failed to see
the consistency of placing in nomina-
ton a Democrat for states attorney
after refusing to entertain the idea
when the senatorial nomination was
considered. L. A. Ballou of Wind
ham thought that if we were going to
have house cleaning we had better
do it at home. Others spoke to the
subject, briefly. A formal ballot was
then taken which gave Davenport 6,
L. I'll. Albee of Bellows Falls 16.
Mr.. Albee's nomination was made
unanimous. On motion A. A. Wy
man of Cambridgeport was nomina-
ted for County Commissioner. On
motion it was voted to accept the re-
mainder of the regular ticket. j. O.

brief speeches, urging that work be
done for the ticket from now until the
second day of September, the con-
vention adjourned.

ask. The answer is easy. 1t is a

The convention of last Monday
nominated an excellent senatorial
ticket. Mr.. Ball of Bellows Falls
is scythe snath manufacturer. He
represented Rockingham in the last
Legislature, and is capable man Of
the people and thoroughly in sympa-
thy with the legislative wants of the
people. Had he been other than this
he would have received the nomina-
ton at the hands of the late lawyers
convention.
j. c. Newtos is Dummerston
farmer, not one of the kind that
spends half his time riding on free
railroad pass, but engages in practi-
cal everyday farm work. He also
has had Legislative experience, having
represented his town in the lower
house, and is a man of decided views,
and in warm sympathy with his
brother farmers.
There is no reason why every Re-
publican in the county, outside of the
few that swear by the ring, should
not support this ticket.
Had Mr.. Melendy been known as
candidate it is extremly doubt-
full if he could have obtained single
delegate outside of Brattleboro,
certainly not one in his own town.
Since j. W. Melendy connected
himself with the railroad he has re-
ceived no office from his fellow
townsmen. Three years ago last
March his friends nominated him fol
moderator at town meeting. A ballot
was at once called for and resulted in
Mr.. Melendy's defeat abont five tc
one.

The territory Is open, however, if the

There are many who want to see base
ball, but the general sentiment among
those who are looking TO next year Is
that IL would be better not 20 have a
club here until next season unless the
present club keeps on. BY that time
the cranks will be hungry for baseball
and the games will be we'll patronized.
IL seems, however, that Ted Sullivan
Is not disposed to give up. for yesterday
he tclcgraphcd President Braden that

Indigestion

is not only a distressing complaint, Of
! itself, but. by causing the blood to
become depraved and the system en-
fcebled, is the parent of inuumcrable
maladies. That Ayers Sarsaparilla
Is the best cure for Indigestion, even
when complicated with Liver Complaint,
is proved by the following testimony
from Mrs. Joseph Lake, Of Brockway
Centre, Mich.:-
oliver complaint and Indigestion
made my life a burden and came near
ending my existence. For more than
four years I suffered untold agony, was
reduced almost TO a skeleton, and hardly
had strength to drag myself about. All
kinds of food distressed me, and only
the most delicate could be digested at
all. Within the time mentioned several
physicians treated me without giving re-
lief. Nothing that ! took seemed to do
any permanent good until | commenced
the use Of Ayers Sarsaparilla, which
has produced wonderful results. Soon
after commencing to take the Sarsapa-
rilla I could see an Improvement in my
condition. My appetite began TO return
and with it came the ability TO digest
all the food taken, my strength inn
proved each dav, and after few
months of faithful attention to your
directions, l found myself well
woman able TO attend TO all household
duties. The medicine has given me q
new lease Of life"

Protection vindicated by Experience.

Listening to the denunciations of the
policy of protection to home industries
so persistently employed by free trade
advocates, the unposted voter might
readily infer that protection was a
mere experiment, unsanctioned by
practical statesmen in other countries,
and without warrant in the experience
of nations older than ours.
The fact is, England enforced the
most rigid protective legislation
known to history during period OF
four hundred years, and changed hel
policy but forty years ago, when con
fronted with the fact that there were
more people on her little island than
could be fed from its products, she be.
lieved herself strong enough to compel
other nations to adopt a policy which
would make her the workshop of the
world. In urging this step Golden
promised that in twenty years all the
leading nations of the world would
adopt similar revenue policy; but,
despite the efforts to that end of ennis
saries who have persistently worked in
colleges, in commerce and through the
press, England is to-day seemingly as
far from the fulfillment of her ambition
to dictate the tariffs of other nations as
she was forty years ago. All the other
leading governments of the world adj
here to protection of the industries OF
their people, some of them NOTABLY
Germany adding largely to their i'm
port duty in recent years.
While the overwhelming majority OF
statesmen throughout the world are
vindicating the wisdom of protection
by migrating it into the laws of their
governments, it is fashionable for
theorists without knowledge of the
government beyond that acquired in
lecturing class of undergraduates,
and with business experience limited
to receipting for salaries and paying
for living expenses, to descant upon
the beneficence of unrestricted com.
petition between the people of the
nations, however divergent their con-
ditions. Which are likely to prove the
best judges of sound national policy?
