Old Soldiers in Politics.

So far as we can gather informa-
ton in this section of the state, there
is very little power in the Woodbury.
elements, except what force it secures
from the old soldiers. We hear of
many men of this kind who are not
only doing a great deal of talking,
but who are writing letters, stirring
up prejudices, relating stories against
Mr.. Page and doing steady work for
Col. Woodbury.. If these men are
working on the conviction that Mr..
Woodbury. is better qualified for the
office than Mr.. Page, well and good
if they are going on the principle
that he was a soldier, and for that
reason they are bound to support him,
they are dishonoring the name of old
soldiers and abusing their privilege
as freemen.
Orleans County monitor. [volume] (Barton, Vt.) 1872-1953, 1890-06-02

A San Francisco paper publishes
story of conspiracy of corporation
of English landowners in Lower Cal
ifernia to overturn the Mexican gov
ernment, establish an independent
state, and then apply for admittance
to the United States. The English
men claim that there is no security
for them under Mexican rule. This
programme would be an imitation OF
the Texan revolt, and no doubt the
people of California and vicinity
would like to see it carried out. Low
er California naturally belongs to the
United States, but whatever the
course taken by interested residents
and owners in 1T, the United States
government will be likely to see to 1t
that no official encouragement is CIV
en- such a scheme as this. Indeed,
it seems that Secretary Blaine knew
of it before the San Francisco paper
gave it publicity, and Secretary Proc
tor has ordered the troops along the
line to interfere with any demonstra-
ton in violation of neutrality laws,
while the man-of-w war "Charleston'
will cruise about the peninsula to
stop operations by sea. 1t is said
that the people of Southern Califor-
MIA wish to form new state. The
country will have something to say
about this, if new strip of territory
is to be annexed WdtchnaG1a.

No Dark Horse Candidate.

Some men, who are not firm on the
matter of Governor candidates are
talking about taking up ''new man."
They imagine because the contest
between Mr.. Page and Col. Wood
bury has beeu long and animated
that these men are unusually eager
for the office, and are resorting to un-
usual means to obtain it. We sup
pose they are no more ambitious than
the average candidate. They are
men, however, who are in the habit
of winning whenever they set out to
accomplish an object and neither will
let much grass grow under his feet
until the 2Oth of June. They were
compelled on account of having been
pushed into the field by friends early
too early-to either back down and
out or to take the hazard and the cud-
geling of long canvass. They are in
and that to stay. They have been on
the toe of every boot in the state, and
their character and lives have had a
rough going over. They have stood
the ordeal and the investigation well.
While the papers have had them up
to public view nothing has been dis
cerned that need deter any man from
supporting them on the score of char
acter. The question to decide is
which of the two will give the state
the best administration. To drop off
on to a 'sdark horse," somebody, or
nobody as the case usually is, will
be foolish. We prefer one of these
candidates to the other. We prefer
the other to any out side man at this
| time. These men have been the tar
gets of criticism and investigation.
Let one or the other sit down, when
the contest is over in the governor
chair and disappoint the predictions
of his political enemies. Some have
imagined that these candidates have
been expending a great deal of mon
ey in this pre-convention squabble
We doubt not they have paid for the
circulation of some newspapers anc
have expended small sums otherwise
but that they are spending money tt
buv ND men and to "subsidize" thu
press etc., we doubt.

WHY the Brattleboro Phoenlx
Opposes Col. Hooker.

He is not man who possesses the
qualities or intuitions of statesman
ship. He has not the breadth of
view or the natural endowment or
trend of thought which fit him for the
duties which Vermont has always re-
quired of her Congressman. He is
not man of thorough education or
cultivation in any direction, and there
fore not man who could,if he would
make his influence felt in the cOnsid-
Grafton of leading questions of pub
lie Importance. His natural tastes
and affiliations do not lie along these
lines. He could "take care of the
boys,'' and do his share of work in
''n. ctical politics. but for a Yer
monJ Congress IN this does not fill
the bill. Col. Hooker recently took
occasion to publicly declare his devo-
ton to the principle of prohibition,
but unfortunately his habits do not
always correspond with the principle,
for it is a well-known fact that he
cannot withstand the temptations of
of New York and Washington life,
and he ought not to be subjected to
them as a Member of Congress from
Vermont. The state does not re-
ouire such sacrifice from him. Or
dinarily there would be no occasion
to mention these things, but when
candidate enters himself in such
race, duty to the public requires a
plain statement of facts. To say
that there are dozens or scores of
men in Congress equally unqualified
for their places does not meet the case
This is not the kind of men whom
Vermont has been in the habit OF
sending to Congress, and with the
small representation to which the
state has been reduced this is not the
time to begin.
For the present no man can serve
the Second Vermont district in Con
gress SO we'll or so creditably as car
Gen. Grout. He has done nothing
which merits public condemnation o.
disaproval, and the honorable and tit
ting thing to do is to re nominate an(
| reelect him.

Democratic State Convention.

The democratic state convention did
not omen until after IL o'clock, owing to
a fipht over the state committee chairman
ship. Hiram Atkins of Montpelier called
the assembly to order and named L. w.
MaioneY of Rutland for chairman ana
H. S. Haskell of Derby Line, j. q. Hale
of Newbury and Michael Guiltenan OF
Brattleboro, for secretaries. Maloney
made a speech attacking Harrison's ad-
ministration, extolling Cleveland and tar
iff reform, and was loudly applauded. He
thought that if the Mckinley bill passed 1t
would result in a return of the democrats
to power. Vice presidents were elected
as follows: Addison county, Ira B. Fletch-
er or of Bridport; Bennington, Z. >. Or
Wis, Manchester; Caledonia, A. Corcoran'
Groton; Chittenden, w. Beach, Essex;
Essex. J. E. Tracy, Brighton; Franklin,

Rutland, j. M. Ketchum, Brandon; wash
ington, S. L. Gilman, Marshfield; Wind
ham, J. H. Williams, Rockingham WIND
! sor. NJ. H. Goddard, Ludlow.
w. H. Brigham of Hyde Park and H.
D. Brigham of Bakersfield were named
for governor, but the latter was nomln-
ated by acclamation. Other nominations
were For Lieut.. Gov, George W. Smith
of White River Junction; Secretary OF
state, G. J. o. Kimball Of Vergennes +;
treasurer, D. A. Pollard of Proctorsville !;
auditor, Elisha May of st. Johnsbury.
Committee on resolutions, S. L. Brig
ham of Brattleboro, E. A. Carmody OF
Rutland, S. H Stoddaad of White River
Junction, c. H. Smith of Barre
On reassembling after dinner the COM
mittee on resolutions reported and the
nominee for governor was introduced
and made an address. Then came fight
against the Atkins boss rule, which wax
ed hot for the space of three hours.
When the state committee met aftel
the convention was over Atkins was re-
elected chairman by vote of nine against
three for Judge HaseIton, w. ii. Chllds
of Brattleboro being one of the opponents
to Atkins, of course.
The principal planks of the platform
adopted reaffirm former tariff declara
tions, declare for ballot reform law,an6
for local option license law.
The next convention will be held a

Long Enough.

Col. Hooker and some OF his men
are making use of the cheap and
useless argument, in regard to the
candidacy for position in congress,
that Gen. Grout has had the place
''long enough" They think it time
for him to vacate, and that in the IN
terests ofGeo. w. Hooker. Doubtless
the argument is true from Hooker>s
standpoint. He assumed six years
ago that he was a man fit for
the place; he has been persistently
claiming so ever since; he IS gettlng
tired of waiting he has set up long
lines of pins and has laid pipes IN all
directions, for the accomplishment
of this end. Col. Hooker is sort
of perennial plant. He is subdued
under the hoe once in while, but
pops up again the next time lively
and serene. Kicking and cutting
do him no HARM he is still the same
persistent seeker for small and great
offices. Strange that it never occur
red to him that he was not made just
right, and did not have the necessary
qualifications for a congressman.
He can do q hundred things we'll,
some things better than most men.
He eats a magnificent dinner. Why;
it was only a few days ago that Mil
! lionaire Scott told him that he would
give him his entire fortune for
his (Hooker's) stomach. We have
no doubt some modest man
would give him other millions for his
scheek," which, certainly is more re-
markable than the stomach. The
doughty Col. presides at banquet
handsomely, and cracks some hand
some Jokes; he is hale fellow al
ways, and nobody wants to dislike
him. There are hundreds in the state
who would gladly give him the pleas
ure of some exalted or dignitied Of
fees if he had been made right. He
makes a capital two-minute speech,
but his cast of mind is such that his
short speeches are very much better
than his long ones.
"Long enough Has Mr.. Morrill,
or Mr.. Edmunds served 'long
enough" and must they come down
because somebody else would like
place in the senate? Has their influ-
ence so waned that some school-boy
. politician must be sent up to con-
gress, to grow up into strength, ia
vor and influence? The voters are
f not looking at it that way. Has Gen
Grout lost anything of power and in
fuence by leading men, by an ac
uuaintance with business and con
gressional law making? Not much
e Is his influence with the various de
2 partments before which his constitu
5 ents and his business call him grow
ing less from year to year? This sor
e of argument is worse than nonsense
e Better for those who make it to sa,
S frankly, "Pull out, we want to ge
e in" That is the full size of it.
: But if it is really necessary to turl
b Congressman Grout out of office thi
Il year, why not cast about for othe
:, candidates besides Col. Hooker? w
y do not understand that he has tn
d ground by pre-emption, although h

Our special dispatches from the
great celebration in Richmond are
very interesting reading. They put
viv1dly before our readers the most
remarkable specimens of unregulated
and paroxysmal rhetoric that have
been known on this continent since
it was discovered, the prevailing and
delirious enthusiasm for the "Lost
Cause" the extravagant tributes to
Lee, the revival of the spirit of the
rebellion and the prodigal and osten-
tatious displays of the ''Rebel Rag"
Such a mad festival of Unreason
has not been known since the Paris
Commune. The outbursts of rebel
rage against the course of the Mdtt
and Erpress justify us in predicting
that the demonstrations at Richmond
to-day would be just what they have
been.
In some respects the oratory has
been even more insane and offensive
than we had expected. The main
orator of the day came as near defy
ing Lee as he could without open
blasphemy. That the war settled
nothing seems to be the prevailing
sentiment in Richmond. The rebel
lion was a holy cause and it still
lives. 1t will be resumed as soon as
the prospects of success are sufficient.
Meanwhile these men, who imperfect
/ ly mask their reasonable sentiments
and purposes under the pretense of
paying tribute to Lees memory, pro-
pose to nullify the constitution, as
the war amended it, yet retain all tbs

Col. Mansur Denies.

1t having been stated in some pa
per that Col. Z. NJ. Mansur, Depart
ment Commander of the G.. A. r. of
Vermont, had written letter or let
ters to certain comrades in the inter-
est of Col. Woodbury., he takes occa-
sion to deny the statement and says ::
Il have not and shall not use my Of
flee to advance the interests of any
person politically. Iwould condemn,
as quick as any one, any attempt to
use the O.. A. R. for political purpos-
es." Col. Mansur is an honorable
man, and he knows that such a course
would not only be wrong, but it
would be extremely disadvantageous
to the O.. A. r. itself.
