From the Brattlehoro Reformer.

The people are sometime going to.
call a halt in the extravaganza that
is running riot in State expenses. In
the four years from 1886 to 1890
the state expenses amounted to ST.
sol PA; this is over $500, 000great-
er than the expenditures from 1882
to 1886 and exceeds by 1920
the disbursements for the four years
preceding the enactment of the cor
poration tax law-covering theyears
1873 to 1882. The expenses of the
reform school, the house of correc-
ton and the state prison were $251,-
529 more than the receipts from 1880
to 1890, The balance of court ex-
penses against the State has de-
creased very considerably since the
stopping of the stealing of fines-and
costs collected But this only makes
it more ineXcusable that expenses
should have been so enormously in
creased in other directions so that
they are now from 81 to SO a year
heavier for every family in the state
than they were five years ago. The
tax law was of itself a
measure of wisdom and Justice. But
the tendency as things are now run
ming, is to deprive the state of the
benefit, by simply clearing away the

: There can be but little doubt that
Hon. Henry Powers will be nomi-
mated to succeed Gov. Stewart in
Congress for the first district. He
stands head and shoulders above any
man yet named against him in this
district in point of ability. An ex-
change well says of him;
The retirement of Gov Stewart as a candi-
date for further Congressional honors leaves
the field practically clear for Hon. Henry
Powers, of Morrisville, who will be candi-
date for the succession. The candidacy of
Judge Powers will be hailed with much salts
faction by the Republican voters of the first
district and his nomination as Gov Stewards
successor seems pretty well assured. Judge
Powers is at present Third Assistant Judge
of the State Supreme Court, having been
elected to the bench in 1874, and served con-
tInuously since as a member of the court. He
was born in Morrisville in 1885, and gradu-
ated from the University of Vermont, class of
'55. He has filed various local and state
offices, and in 1874 wasspeaker of the House.
Judge Powers is a man of rare mental attain
ments and fine speaker If chosen to repre-
sent the first district he will make his mark in

From the Yergennes Yermonter.

We wish to enter our protest to
certain statements in regard to Mr..
Page, which have been scattered over
the State by .emissaries of the Wood
bury ring, but which so far, no. paper
has seen fit to publish. This straight
forward " course of Mr. Woodbury's
friends stands out in bold contrast
to that pursued by the opposition.
Some time ago the question was
asked whether liquor was sold at Mr.
Woodbury's hotels in Burlington,
and whether he profted by the illegal
traffic. Upon the denial of this in
the Free Press, the leading papers of
the State friendly to Mr.. Page, made
note of the denial and accepted the
matter as final Notwithstanding that
many individuals asserted positively
that liquor had been furnished to
the guests of the hotel, both in their
rooms and in the dining room. This
is in accordance with our idea of con-
Quoting the canvass. in a ".candid,
straightforward way" We do not
believe in carrying it on in an under
handed manner, and if there is any,
thing to be said affecting the charac-
ter or record of either Hf, Page or
Col. Woodbury. it should be said
openly, to admit of a reply that may
be equally public, and to give the /
people an opportunity to know the
whole truth of the matter.

From the Montpelier Watehman.

: The Free Press is sending to the
postmasters of the State circular
which seems to indicate, as cores
pondent puts it, "a design to mOnOpO-
lie the whole newspaper field for Mr.
Woodbury. and to use this OppOrtu-
nifty to get a fOothold all through the
State" The following is the essen
tial part of the circular:
I'VE wish the Free Press to have read
ers in every town in the State. To help
accomplish this purpose we intend to
send out large number of sample copies
during the next few months. To do this sue
cessfully we must have q list of good names
at every postoffice in Vermont. If you will
send us the names of from twenty-five to
sixty persons, according to the size of your
Office, to whom you think it would be advan-
tageous for us to send few sample copies,
we will take pleasure in forwarding the Week
ly Free Press one year free to any address
you name"
So the puny colossus of the COM
bine is stretching its brazen legs to
bestride the State, crush out the To-
cal papers and force Colonel Wood
bury upon the people of Vermont. Of
this gift enterprise the Woodstock
Standard pertinently remarks: 'Our
enterprising contemporary is rich
and can afford this perhaps, whether
to help the selectmen to pure liquors
or to accomplish other purposes, but
the terms seem to be rather hard for
the struggling country newspaper to
compete with. +"
"Our enterprising contemporary is
rich''-sudden richness seems to have
befallen the organ of the combine.

THE GOVERNOR QUESTION.

two or three months ahead of the

Here in Caledonia county the drift
of opinion is Enthusiastically and en-
phatically in favor of Mr.. Page, and
Essex county is almost a unit for
him. If the choice depended on these
two counties and the election were
held to-day, Mr.. Page would have an
overwhelming majority.
If the sentiment of Caledonia and
Essex counties is Indicative of that
of the whole State-and we know of
no reason why Mr. Page should be
stronger or Col Woodbury. weaker
here than in other parts of Vermont
Mr.. Page has a long lead of his

Judge Powers for Congress.

The Hon. Henry Powers, of Morris
vile, now Judge ofour supreme court,
has been mentioned by many as the
probable successor of Gov. Stewart.
We do believe that if there is one per-
son in this state who is eminently
fitted to represent Vermont in Con-
gress, that person is Judge Powers.
He commenced his business career af-
ter receiving a liberal education and
pursued until elected to the supreme
bench a successful practice of the law.
He served with brilliant success for
some years as member of our state
legislature, a part of the time as
speaker of the house of representa-
tives. He was also a member of the
last council of censors, and also took
an active part in the last constitu-
tional convention held in 1870. We
sat with him as member at that
time, and as the business of the con-
vention was done principally in a
committee of the whole, Judge Powers
was really its chairman during it's
entire session. His past legislative
experience gives him excellent qualifi-
cations for the position of congress-
man, while his experience as a judge
should be of the first Importance in
the making of the nations laws. His
personal presence carries conviction
of the strength of the man. Logical
as a reasoner, he is also ready de-
batter, with an oratorical voice and
manner which never fails to hold the
attention of a public body. With
these qualifications which we know
him to possess we believe that Judge
Powers would be thepeer of any man
in Congress. He is Industrious and
if elected to Congress at our next
congressional election it is our opin-
ion that the star of Vermont influ-
ence in that body would commenceto
ascend rather than decline.
