Woman Suffrage.

A resolution was introduced into
the House of Representative at
Washington some time since which
proposes a constitutional amendment
which gives women the same right to
vote as men in the United States.
The Judiciary committee to whom
the resolution was referred reported
on it favora6ly. The report very
fully and fairly treats the matter and
we give below the gist of it:
The Declaration of Independence
recites that governments derive their
Just power from the consent of the
governed. A republican form of
government is based on that princi-
pal. Women of this country are a
most conspicuous part of the govern
ed. The question is whether we shall
place them on an equality with men.
They have as much interest in the
public welfare and the happiness of
the people as men. 1t is difficult to
see how and in what way they assent
to the laws by which they are gov
erned. There were by the last CEN
sus about 100000 women who
might exercise the right of suffrage
were it extended to them. Congress
does not wish to deny justice to any
one, much more to so large class of
people as the women of the land. 1t
is objected to by some that if women
became voters they will seek and
sometimes hold office. If the people
wish them to act as public servants
it is not easy to explain why they
should not. 1t cannot be said that
our women are deficient in intellect
or in education Eighty-nine per
cent of our women can read and
write-a large portion of men who
vote can not read or write. In many
states women vote for school pur-
poses. She Is trusted in the most
important branches of government
service she votes money to erect
school-house, but not for building
jail. She can discharge the higher
duties but not the lower. The power
that withholds the ballot from woman
is prejudice.
In the sunlight of religious liberty
and civilization we will move onward
and secure greater equality for al
our people, and in few years WI
shall not stop to inquire of what se1
they may be.
In the Forty-nInth congress Mr.
Ezra B. Taylor, the present Chairman
of the committee, expressed the views
of the minority with an argumen
which can not be excelled or answer
ed. From his report we quote tn
following, which so well expresse
the views of this committee
1--WE believe that they are now en-
titled to immediate, sure, and abso
lutte enfranchisement.

mands it. Give woman the ballo
and she will have additional mean
and inducements to a broader an
better education, including knowl
edge of affairs, which she will no
fail to avail herself of to the utter
most give her the ballot and yo

We have had big fight but it has
been among ourselves. This has
been made more intense from the
fact that a state republican nomina-
ton in Vermont is equivalent to an
election. Up to the convention there
was a division of sentiment, but it
should not amount to dissenslons in
the party afterwards. We should
show ourselves capable of self f-gov-
ernment and self-control. Though
disappointed, no one should feel dis
posed to punish his party. These
griefs should be overcome and line
kept up for future victories, IN which
the defeated ones may next time
come out the winners.-St. Adams

In his testimony at the Board of

the City of Paris declared that in the
construction of that wonderful YES

to speed, safety being in all respects

Let us have both safety and speed

Why Orleans County Voted
Against Hooker.

There is considerable talk as to
the causes which led to the defeat
of Col. Hooker in the State COnven-
ton when he was put in nomination
for lieutenant governor, and Orleans
county which voted against him is
accused as comprising his defeat.
Having some opportunities to see and
know something about the matter
we give our version of the affair:
When Col. Hooker saw himself
hopelessly defeated in his attempt to
win as a congressional nominee, he
did what was not only wise but a
pleasant thing in not permitting his
name to 90 before the district at all.
His friends, in speaking of the matter
before that convention, did mag
unanimous thing in their apparently
hearty support of Gen. Grout. The
friends of Gen. Grout left the con-
vention with the kindest feelings
toward Col. Hooker, and he made
not little advancement in the good
will of the delegates in all this sec
ton.
During the evening preceding the
state convention, it began to be ru-
mored that Col. Hooker might be in
the field as a candidate for the Sec
ond place on the ticket, and the next
morning, while political excitement
.glowed at white heat, some counties
already having decided for Col. Hook
er, it looked as though the tide had
set in his favor and his election was
sure. The three counties of Orleans,
Essex and Caledonia which were
nearly solid for Henry c. lde, felt
that the Hooker boom was sure tC
succeed, and Mr.. Ide feeling that
his opportunity was lost, decided not
to allow his name to 60 into the con-
yention. Meanwhile the convention
had assembled and Mr.. Page had re-
.cedved handsome majority. The
Woodbury. party was not only disap
pointed, but was in that ugly state
of feeling which breathed threaten
dngs and slaughter. Having them
selves circulated the story that there
was 4 trade between the Windhan
county people and the Page party
they saw opportunity to revenge them
selves by striking Col. Hooker. W.
state here that the story of a trad
was entirely false; not a Page mai
an Orleans county, and we believ
not one of his friends had any tall
with the Windham county delegate
in regard to Ar. Pages support
certainly there was no arrangement
for mutual back scratching. But tn
story of trade was talked and howl
ed far and wide. The Page dele
gates knew it was false, and Will
some of them were inclined to vot
for Hooker, they felt, in view of tn
trade accusation, they would sho'
by their votes the falsity of tn
charge. The thirty-two Woodbur
delegates went in naturally with th
angry Woodbury. crowd who wer
ready to strike somebody. Henc
the county voted against Col. HOOK
er. We are sure that some of thel
were not only disappointed but dis
turbed by the outcome of the mattel

The republican party of Vermont
won, on Thursday of last week, the
most signal victory since its organ
ization more than a third of a century
ago-a victory over itself, a victory
of the people, by the people and for
the people. After long contest,
without a parallel in the political his
tory of the state, Carroll S. Page
has been chosen the leader of the
Vermont republicans. In September
the voice of the people will make him
governor, and he will manage the af-
fairs of the state for the best good of
every class and every interest. =

Comments on the Republican
State Ticket.

"The republicans of Vermont, at
their state convention, extolled the
administration and tariff legislation,
hoped congress would make law so
nothing Intoxicating could be passed
from one state to another, and nom
mated Hon. Carroll S. Page for
governor.
The nominee is a gentleman hon
orable and high minded as repub-
lican can be, and one of the shrewd-
est business men and politicians in
the state. The remainder of the tick
ct is made up of the truly loyal and,
in all human probability will, with
the governor, be elected, since YER
mont is about as sure as Texas. =

The Wine and Spirit Gazette, the
official organ of the New York liquor
interests, in reply to inquiries from
some of its subscribers, asking
whether it is safe to set up "original
package" stores in prohibition states,
advises dealers not to attempt it. 1t
tells them that the local judges will
decide against them, and that if they
carry the case up on appeal they will
have to pay heavily in costs, while
long before the supreme court reaches
the matter, on final appeal, congress
will have passed a law which will
govern the decision of the court.

The Woodstock Standard says:
''We have every reason to be salts
fed with the result of the state con-
vention. It's choice for governor
was nominated by handsome ma
jority and the gentleman it named
for lieutenant governor to-day occu-
pies that position upon the ticket.
We are at peace with all men. Mr..
Page had the earnest support of the
people of the state who desired to
get affairs out of the rut in which
they have been running for many
years, and though opposed strenu-
ously by powerful combinations the
victory is complete. The people have
done it and the lesson is a good one
to them-they may do it again if
they will but attend to their duty.

The Only siio In st. Georges Hundred.
Middlctown Transcript.
Last summer Mr.. Henry CLAYTON had
silo erected on his farm near Mt. Pleas
ant. The building Is sixteen feet square
and eighteen feet deep. We say deep
because the silo Is filled from the top
and extends three feet below the surface
of the ground. Heavy joist 2xI2 inches
set one foot apart on the stills and we'll
brAced at the top constitute the inaia por-
ton Of the frame which must necessarily
be strong TO prevent bulging out at the
sides by the heavy pressure. On the out
side Of ths joist felt was tackled, thea
dressed boards with overlapping edges
uprights hemlock boards were nailed,
over these another coat OF felt was placed
AMI over this again dressed boards were
used, thus making q nearly air-tight
wall.
The whole thing was completed By
good sbingle roof. Mr.. Clayton hs.
made preparations for Hlling this silo by
planting, or rather sowing corn In rows
30 that,it could he cultivated. When this
corn had formed the grain, but while the
grain Was still In soft condition, the
corn was cut and hauled to the cut er
which was driven by an engine. Tie
coru WAS cut very fast. apd being elevated
To the upper part OF the building was al.
lowed TO fall to the bottom, thus packing
Itself except around the sides, wnefe a
man trampled 1t closely. This epsllage is
usually heavy Weighted and closely COW
cred on the top, but in this case Mr..
Clayton used no weights unnecessary as
his ensilage has kept remarkably well,
only q very small percentage having
moulded. 1t Is now as sweet and Tree
from mould M it WAS the day 1t WAS put
In.
Mr.. Clayton feeds to his cows one
bushal In the morning with o gallon OF
meal and gallon Of bran, and the same
10 Tho evAnina. with what dry feed they
choose to eat during the day. These
| COWS all look we'll and give large quanti-
ties OF milk which il sold At tho cream
cry. Mr.. Clayton is raising as 6ne . lot
OF young Holsteins as can be found Ia
the State. Most of his cows are from
imported stock. while two of them were
imported directly from the Netherlands
aud are members Of the famous Aaygie
family. The quality Of the mi h pro
dueed by these cows ought TO guarantee
better price than "a cents per quart.
