The IdeS of June.
rom the Barre Town New


AS June 10, the date set for the Re
publican state convention, draws
near, it is apparent to the most cas-
ual observer that some one will on
that day be nominated for governor.
If he is more critical observer, he
may go further, and prophesy who
the man is to be. And if he has been
keeping his eyes open, and watching
the drift of political affairs, he is
moderately convinced that, while
neither Col. Woodbury. or Mr.. Page
has any right to expect Il walk-over,
the latter gentleman has comfort
able lead in the race and will hold it
to the finish-unless another civil
war breaks out, or something else
dreadful happens.
SO far as The Town News is con
cerned, it drifted into a discussion of
"the governor question" with an en-
tire Indifference as to which man won
the fight; but the campaign of rot
which the Woodbury. faction has been
carrying on has made us very, very
tired, and we sincerely trust that the
Republicans of the state will put Car
roll S. Page in nomination for the
governorship.
And we believe they will.

At a college meeting held Saturday fore
noon John Stearns was chosen manager of
next falls football eleven.
The nine returned from it's Massachusetts
trip Saturday evening. Wednesday they were
defeated by Amherst by a score of 6 to /.
They have right to feel very proud of the
result, as Amherst made Z runs in a recent
game with Harvard, and in one with Yale.
They were unable to play Trinity Thursday
because of rain. Friday they crossed bats at
Saxton's River with the Vermont Academy
nine, and were victorious by a score Of II to
6. The first six innings were played in
drilling rain, and the ball was wet that
the pitchers had to rely upon speed alone.
The Varsity boys hit the ball hard, making
II hits. Saturday they played the most ex-
citing game of the season, when they met
Middlebury college at the latter place. In
the second inning Z. V. NJ. scored two runs,
while Middlebury by lucky batting secured
Z The U. V. M. tied the score in the 18th,
but Middlebury made 3 runs in the same in
ming and again secured the lead. In the Sth
after two men were out U. V. M. again tied
the score. In the same inning Middlebury
made one run The 9th opened with the
score II to 10 in favor of Middlebury. The
u. V. NJ. now proceeded to win the game, and
before they had been retired they had scores
to their credit Mddlebury was hlanked. 1t
was a plucky uphill game. and Z. V. M. de-
serves much credit for pulling it out IN the
last inning They were in poor condition to
plav as it was at the end of Il four days trip,
and the night before they had been on the
train from / until O'Clock. Middlebury
plays return game here Wednesday.

The eyes of hundreds of thousands

now anxiously turned in the direc-

the question of revision of the West

between the Presbyterian and Epis

The report will bring about as earn

About Campaign Methods.

Much has been said of late in criti-
cism of the peculiar methods of the
gubernatorial canvass. So far as
Mr.. Pages actions are concerned
they have been straightforward and
will bear investigation. Whatever
he has done has been done through
letters to his friends, all of which
have been over his own signature.
While there has been much that was
confidential in these letters there has
been nothing in them either discred-
liable or dishonorable. With two
exceptions Mr.. Page has been out of
Lamoille County but twice this year
except to go to New York or Boston.
Owing to the illness of a member of
his family he has been obliged to be
absent from the State several weeks
since January, having visited Bos-
ton, where the sick one has been, no
less than seven times. Fully one

been spent out of the State, and
while at home his private business in
terests have been so large as to rem
der it absolutely necessary that
considerable portion of his time be
devoted thereto.
These statements are made in the
interest of fairness which should be
observed even in politics. The at
tempt of the Woodbury. organs to
make it appear that their candidate
is less anxious for the Governorship
than Mr.. Page, or less active in his eff
forts to secure it, is disgusting hypoc-
risy, which we do not think Col
Woodbury. would cOuntenance. Mr..
Page is willing to take full personal
responsibility for all he has done. He
also deserves credit for what he has
not done.

Concerning the Convention.

At the request of many who wish
to attend the meeting of the Grand
Lodge, F. & A. NJ. of Vermont to be
holden at Burlington during the
week of the 18th of June, the repub-
lican state committee have thought
best to change the date suggested
for holding primary meetings to elect
delegates to the state convention at
Montpelier, Thursday, June 18th,
from Thursday, June 10Th, to Satur-
day. June 18th. The different rail
roads in thestate will carry delegates
to the convention for fare one way,
tickets to be procured in the follow
ing manner: The Delaware and Hud-
son Canal company R. R. will issue
round trip tickets from all stations
on that road to Rutland and return,
for fare one way; delegates to pur-
chase tickets from that point to
Montpelier and return. The Con-
necticut River railroad will issue
round trip tickets for one fare, good
from Brattleboro to Windsor and re-
turn; delegates to purchase tickets
from that point to Montpelier and
return. The Woodstock railroad
will sell tickets over their road good
to 90 and return for one fare. The
Central Vermont and all roads by
them controlled, Including the Mis-
sisquoi Valley and Burlington and
Lamoille), the Montpelier and Wells
River, and Bennington and Rutland
railroads will issue round trip tickets
for one fare to Montpelier and return.
The Boston and Maine (Passumpsic,
and st. Johnsbury and Lake Cham
plain divisions will issue excursion
tickets, good to Montpelier and re-
turn. All tickets good going June
18th and 10th, and returning on or
before the Dist.
The above instructions must be
followed if delegates would obtain
the reduction.

sneoIfioations Again called For

The St Adams Messenger asserts,
or intimates, that an attempt has
been made to subsidize a certain
newspaper in Mr.. Pages interest.
Let us have the facts. Don't strike
in the dark. If this be true it is due
to the people of Vermont that they
know it. and Mr.. Page should at
once and forever retire from the can
vass. The Messenger adopts the old
woman's tactics, it has ''hearn tell''
that this awful thing has been done,
so it prefaces it's charge with the true
gossip's excuse, "We have seen the
statement" This is hardly a suffic-
lent basis upon which to make so
grave a charge, and in the name of
fair play, in the name of decency, and
in the name of respectable journal
ism we demand that the Messenger
give, and give at once, the data as to

Oats and bran, with an occasional
admixture of bean meal or pea meal,
make the feed for sheep in Vermont,
and as some of the choicest wool
sheep in this country are raised in
Vermont much of the success is due
to the method of feeding.
The horse-breeders of Vermont
who have sent their horses to South
America during the past few years
will be interested to learn that the
Argentine Republic has voted to
place an import duty upon fancy and
thoroughbred horses. The rate of
taxation is for the present fixed at
IS per cent on the valuation. Strong
opposition was offered to the measure,
on the ground that such importations
were invaluable in improving native
South American stock; but the
needy condition of the government
necessitates the passage of the bill.
1t is no secret that the strongest in
huence in favor of the duty was ex-
erted by those who have been
actively engaged in the importation
and purchase of fine stock from
Europe and the United States, and
who now having secured fine studs of
thoroughbred horses, are no longer
in favor of free importations.
There are thousands of acres of
pasture land in Vermont too rocky
or too steep to be cultivated with
profit and yet if properly managed
may be kept productive as pastures
to all time Farmers owning such
land can well afford to SO treat it
that it shall not grow poorer from
year to year On the more level and
lighter lands of eastern Massachq
setts and elsewhere the soiling sys-
TEN in part or whole will give the
farmer better returns and without
reducing the fertility of his farm. BY
this system the cattle are stalled
nights and perhaps days too, and
the manure is applied for the growth
of cultivated forage crops.-NeW Eng
