norant, such as If you don't see what
you want coming your way, ask for it,
yea, cry for it with Balardesque vocifer-
BUSINESS; that the successful method of
putting salt on the tail of the goose that
lays the golden egg is to hunt in packs !;
that it pays better to hatch political plots
than to spend time counting your eggs
before they are hatched and abusing the
hens meantime; that public office is a
private snap and is therefore game worth
the candle; that gentlemen who own
many and large farms are not always
first-class speakers in convention, and
that the most feasible plan of scooping
the pot-to use figure of speech posi-
bly, unintelligible in that region of Area
dian simplicity--is to all stand in togeth-
er. Bennington county has these and
many more points to learn before she
can hope TO equal her smaller and more
modest northern sister.

THE DEATH OF CHESTER PARKlLL.

Brief mention was made in last Fri
days paper of the fact that Chester Par
kill, son of S. C.. Parkill of Cornwall, had
been drowned the day before at Button
bay, near Basin Harbor, while bathing.
1t appears that three of the young men
of the party-A. d. Mead, son of Mr.. C.
d. Mead of Middlebury, Prescott Kim
ball, son of the late G. \. Kimball of
Orwell, and young Parkill-took boat
and went out around the point of the
bay into the open lake, and that they all
jumped out of the boat at about the same
time. When they came up the wind had
drifted the boat out of reach, and, find
ing it not easy to catch the craft, the
boys sought to make the shore, Kimball
was the first to give out, and Mead, who
is a strong swimmer, took him in
charge and started for the land, having
first been assured by Parkill that he was
all right and could take care of himself
The next instant Parkill disappeared
from the sight of the boys in the water
and from that of the rest of the party,
who were standing on the shore watch
ing the swimmers. AS soon as they re-
allied the situation boats were taken
out, but all efforts to find the missing
boy were fruitless. Then, when there
was no longer any hope, a few of the
campers came down to notify his
friends, while others sought aid to look
for the body. Mr.. Parkill went up to
the spot, accompanied by Dr. Porter.
The search for the body was unsuccess-
full till the middle of the next forenoon,
when it was discovered on the bottom
of the lake not rod from where he was
last seen. The place is about ten rods
from shore, and the water is 30 feet
deep there. The remains were convey.
ed to Vergennes by steamer Gazelle
and, after being placed in a casket, were
taken by team to the home of the fam.
lily. The remainder of the party came
at the same time by team or by cars.
The funeral was attended from the
residence at 10 o'clock Sunday morning
and from the church an hour later. Both
the church and the house were crowded
with friends, many schcolmates going
out from here. Rey. Mr.. Barnum, the
Congregational pastor, conducted the ser
vice. So fine display of flowers as thai
at the church is seldom seen. They were
procured and arranged by his compan
ions in the camp, all of whom attended
the funeral in body.
The deceased was an ambitious, bright
and attractive young man. He had
nearly fitted for college and gave prom.
ise OF exceptional usefulness.

Two COUNTIES.

The present condition Of affairs IN two
of the counties of the State enforces
many great moral lessons. Bennington
county has a defeated candidate for Con-
gress whose political fortunes are at a
very low ebb and are not likely to rise.
Two of its would-be prominent citizens
have sued one another for libel, and one
of these also wants $4,000 damages out
of local newspaper for the same cause.
A bank president down there has lately
tried to cut his own throat, and another
resident of the town of Bennington, re-
Gently, while insane, carved up two
chambermaids at North Adams hotel.
That unfortunate town is, besides, the
dwelling place of the commissioner of ag-
[riculture, whose senseless Swedish col
oniZation scheme is the laughng-stock
of the State. The county is in Il bad
way altogether, and chiefly for the rea-
son that each of its inhabitants would
I like the scalp Of all the others. Chaos
reigns in politics. The willy insurance
agent no longer seeks his prey with dill
gence and seductive dodgers, but devotes
his energies to accusing his brother agent
of lying and other minor infractions of
the decalogue. The consequence of it
all is that no one there has an ofiice-eX-
cept the commissioner, and his days are
numbered-and everybody is unhappy,
unprovided for, or insane.
Up in Lamoille county, on the other
hand, they have successful candidate
for Congress and nominee for governor.
They are understood to possess a candi-
date for secretary of the Senate, and it is
also said that the Hon. p. X. Gleed will
endeavor to serve in the three-fold ca
pacity of representative from Morrisville,
speaker of the House and candidate for
supreme court judge. The county, too,
S the nominal home of that other double
ointed, triple-acting statesman, diplo-
mat and executive officer, the Hon. ii.
&. Fiske, retiring State senator, U. S.
consul and Reform-school director. The
county is well fixed, and is making an
effort TO be better fixed. 1t will, more
pver, probably succeed. 1t has got
where it is because it has found out sew
eral things of which Bennington is ig-

man this year and one who is able, COM
peteht and willing to take a prominent
part in the practical work which will
come before that body. 1t is more than
probable that some action will be taken
in regard TO ballot reform, as there is
sentiment in favor of such move. Other
States are adopting the secret ballot sys-
TEN and if there appears to be sufficient
demand for it Vermont cannot afford TO
be behind her sister States. This is the
year, too, for the consideration of amend
ments to the constitution. We need wise
and able counselors to deal with this sub
ject. Various economical and industrial
questions will be presented and urged
upon the legislature for its consideration.
The workingmen and their friends are
making an unmistakable demand for a
weekly payment system and they ought
to have hearing. The project of chang
ing the September election to November
may also come up for consideration.
These and other important matters call
for able legislation at the coming session.
Let every town this year elect its ablest
and most practical man to the Legisla-
ture. The Republican party will, of
course, as usual, be held responsible for
the legislation in this State, and if there
is a better man In the party than the one
who happens to be sin line" for the NOM
ination, let the Republicans see that he
is nominated and elected this year.

EREEMEN'S MEETING.

The meetings of the freemen OF the
several towns will be held next Tuesday !;
and, though it is an "of'' year, it is to be
hoped that large vote will be cast.
Split tickets may be in the field, and
voters should see to it that they are not
deceived. The regular Republican nomi-
nations appear at the head of this page.
Some excellent advice as to the choice
OF representatives is contained in an ex-
tract from the Burlington Clipper print
ed elsewhere. Since that was written
the supreme court has decided that the
corporation tax law is unconstitutional and
a substitute for that will need to be de-
vised, which is an additional reason for
sending our best men to Montpelier.

OPINIONS AND SUGGESTIONS.

That was significant utterance of De-
partment Commander Cogswell of New
Hampshire in his speech congratulating
Commander-ln-Chief NeaZey. 81 be-
lieve," he said, that from this moment
the G.. A. r. takes on new phase. Com
mander VeaZey is not a candidate for
President of the United States" There
is good deal of meaning t. this remark,
which those who have been inclined to
think that the Grand Army was mixing up
a little too much in politics will appre-
ciate.-[ Boston Herald.
We are sorry to note so many express
sions of desire to repeal the present
school law, at the coming session of the
Legislature, and 60 back to the old sys-
TEN. The present law has not yet been
in force long enough to have anything
like fair trial, and it seems to us the
height of folly and shortsightedness to
abandon it before it has been really tested
We cannot expect such work as the re-
formation of the schools to be accom-
plished in day nor yet in two years.
The matter is one of time, and of long
effort. Then again it is the testimony of
most unprejudced observers that the new
system, though handicapped, has vindi-
Gated itself to no small extent St.
Johnsbury Republican.
One of the reforms that the people
should insist on being inaugurated at the
coming Legisa ature is the payment of
members of the Senate and House and all
employees about the State House by the
session, instead of by the day. Fix the
salary of members at not over 500 for
the session, aud then let the legislators
stay at the captal as long as is necessary
to do their wok and do it right. There
would, under his rule, be no danger of
protracted sessions, and even if they
were long dawn out the taxpayers
would not get restivc under the heavy
bills that wen being contracted. One
hundred dollais is ample compensation
for the service rendered by TIE great ma
iority of the m.n who will hold down the
legislative chars, and it will have a ten
dency to prevent so much dawdling in
the real work pf the session. Montpe-

The question of who shall represent
the several towns at the coming session
of the State legislature is serious one
and the discussion which is evidently be-
coming quite gneral has opened none too
early, Every lown should send strong

Chicago does not get along well in
preparing for the worlds fair. 1t has
not even decided on a site.
The government weather sharps say
that the cool wave has about passed and
that warm days may be expected in Sep

The great New England crop this

Congress does not make great headway

tariff bill under consideration and the
House is quarreling vigorously over one
thing and another.

and painful sickness to robust health
marks an epoch in the life of the indi-

treasured in the memory and the agency
whereby the good health has been at
tanned is gratefully blessed. Hence it
is that so much is heard in praise of
Electric Btters. So many feel they
owe their restoration to health, to the
use of the great Alternative and tonic.
