Why Not State the Whole Case ?
From the Waterman


The Free Press states the guberna-
torial case in this wise: Granted, If
YOU please, that both candidates are
men of pure lives, of upright charac-
ter, of business experience, of strong
and sound repoblicanism. Granted
that either would make a safe and
good Governor. Still, one must
choose between them, and our choice
is for the man who risked his life for
his country" Very good. But why
not state the whole case? Can the
Free Press grant that each candidate
stands before the people solely on his
fitness for occupying the office. Does
it not know that if Colonel Wood
bury were not Lieutenant-GovernOr
to-day he would not be a promi-
nent candidate for the highest exec
utive place? 1t knows very well
that his position for the past year
or two has given him unusual oppor-
tunities for making himself more
solidwith those who can assist HMM
realizing his aspirations. If the Free
Press would say: Granted thateac
candidate was of equal ability and
qualifications, and each stands be-
fore the people of the State with no
advantage of official station or ring
complications" then it might with
some reason conclude that the soldier
should be the candidate of the party,
had not soldier held the office for
several successive terms. The Free
Press misses the whole issue of the
campaign, which is whether or not
the Republican party will return to a
custom found to be pernicious, and
so pronounced by State convention.
Personal ambitions must be subordi-
mated to the best interests of the
party and the State.

Cowardly and Contemplate.
From the Barton Monitor

The Burlington Free Press which
might naturally be expected to cham
pion the cause of Lieut.-Gov. Wood
bury, is resorting to that questiona-
BILE and unfair method of booming
its candidate, sometimes used when
there is a dearth of good argument
or good men to be employed to do
the work. We refer to anonymous
letters.
Just now the field being operated
is Franklin and Lamoille counties.
If there are men in Lamoille county
who are opposed to the candidacy of
Mr.. Page, who is more to the bust
ness of that county than any other
man in it, why don't such men write
articles and give facts under their
own signature? An open, stand up
fight is honorable enough in discuss
ing men, but throwing mud in the
dark is both cowardly and contempt

Bishop Potter of the Episcopal
church is in favor of Strengthening
what he calls promising church CEN
tiers by uniting parishes which di-
vision makes feeble The Bishop is
right; but We would suggest that he
go a step farther, and not be content
with uniting weak Episcopal churches,
but advise uniting with churches of
other denominations In many of
our. New England villages may be
found struggling and half starved
churches whose power for usefulness
would be wonderfully improved if
they were consolidated with some
other church. UNCONVENTIONAL pride,
if we may be allowed to use the term,
is well enough where a community is
able to sustain it, but in sparsely set
tied localities individual preferences
ought to be waived, and that which
would be productive of the best re-
suits substituted This is no new idea,
but one which has received much con-
sideration by the clergy and laity,
and on every hand meets with gener-
al favor.

FACTS RELATING TO THE EYE.-By far the
most varied disorder of the eyes, those giving
rise to the greatest complaints, are those de-
pending on defects of vision. A few of these
disorders may with advantage be brought to
the attention of every thinking Individual.
How frequent are the following expressions:
Il get sleepy if l read, ," g l cannot thread
needle at night" " l never read, it makes my
head ache" Sewing by hand makes my tenn
pies ache" Not one of these expressions con-
tains an allusion to the eye, yet each of them
indicates that there is some trouble with one
or both eyes which needs attention. Head
aches, bearing pain in the top, back or side
of the head, with regular sick headache
once or twice week are not infrequent symp-
toms. Every doctor in the neighbOrhOOd ex-
hausts himself upon the case. In sheer dis
pair a specialist is consulted. Enquiry elicits
the fact that the eyes are the cause of all the
trouble The treatment is given and the for
mer sufferer is surprised when weeks after
weeks pass by and no sick headache. One of
the most common errors of the eye is 'Astig-
matism' a condition in which it is often
found that there is far and near sight in the
same eye Every possible variety may exist.
No ordinary glasses can correct it and can
only be obtained by a careful examination
of the eyes and then made for each individual
case. Dr. Martini the specialist, has corrected
about four thousand cases of the above
trouble in Franklin county in the last two
