Hill is determined to steal the senate"
Derrick Brown, editor of the Pough-
keepSie Enterprise, and one of the best
known democrats in Duchess county,
characterized the governors action in
that county as ga proceeding of which
every democrat in the board should be
ashamed. 1t was, without doubt, the
plainest and most outrageous piece of
political thieving that ever disgraced
the history of any county"
Governor Hill has the whole political
machinery of the state under his con-
troll, and his gigantic conspiracy may be
carried to successful completion. The
republicans are making vigorous fight
in the courts and before the returning
board at Albany. Such are the first
fruits of the Tammany victory in the
Empire state.

miserable son shut up in an insane
asylum, himself in physical pain and
loved daughter dangerously ill--it would
seem that fate had done its worst. Ed
ward M. Field was the senior member
of Field, Findley, Wiechers & Co.
The firm is wrecked aud its affairs
hopelessly muddled. Where the money
went to no one knows except Field, who
is now shut up in private insane asy-
lum in Westchester county. Fields
transactions have been disgracefully
dishonest, and included the rehypothe-
cation of collaterals left with them for
securities of loans. 1t is also charged
that he obtained from his father the
key TO the latter's stronghold and
cleaned it out, leaving the honored old
man a bankrupt. Thousands of friends
grieved with Cyrus w. Field and for
him, and sympathy has poured in upon
him from every quarter.

Obituary.

CAMP.-One of Montpeler's oldest and
bestknown residents passed away, last
Wednesday, in the person of Erastus s.
Camp. Mr.. Camp was born in Stanstead,
p. O., April 30, 1912, the son of Major Camp.
When he was only two years old, his par
ents moved to Berlin and settled on farm
near the Corners. AT the age of ten year
Erastus went to Gilmore, and nine years
later came to Montpelier and began work
as carpenter with his brother Lyman
Camp, and others. Shortly after that he
began his wel-kuown career as a railroad
and bridge contractor, and for many years
his life was a busy one. He took an i'm
portant part in the building of the Central
Vermont railroad, in company with his
brother Zebina Camp, who died several
years ago. Three years were spent in the
same occupation at st. GATHERINGS, p. Q.
Twenty-three years ago he removed to
MiddleseX, and operated large steam lum-
Der mill for three years. Then he removed
to Montpelier and his remaining years
were spent here. Last spring his physical
system began to break up, and he failed
gradually In June, 1884, Erastus Camp
welded Eliza Hubbell of Wolcott. They
had seven children, five of whom are liv-
ing-Mrs. Ellen Cottrill, Mrs. Josephine
and Jed G. Camp, all of Milwaukee, and
William, a resident of Brooklyn, n. Y. In
1864, Mr.. Camp married Cynthia E.. daugh-
ter of Samuel Hill of Greensboro, who sur
wives him with one child-George-wh

held last Saturday afternoon from the late
home of Mr.. Camp, corner of Elm and
Court streets, Rev. j. Edward Wright Off
eating. The interment was in Green
Mount cemetery. The bearers were George
Camp of Jersey City, E. E. Hill of Spring
field, Mass, brother OF Mrs Camp, H. n.
Taplin, and James T. Sabin. Mr.. Camp
was selectman and road-commissioner Of
Montpelier at different times; was sergeant
at-arms director in the Vermont Mutual
Fire Insurance Company from 1859 to 1882,
and held other Offices Many houses in
Montpelier were built by him, among them
the residence of the late Charles w. Por-
the county Jail. Mr.. Camp was man of
varying fortunes, and at one time possessed
a considerable fortune. He was a positive
man, and, withal, man of excellent iudg-

sixty days of grace On this question Lewis
Wood made a speech on hard times, the
burthen of which was, "Give the working

brethren round me-" was statement of
the speaker which his audience applauded,
If not in its entirety. G. j. Gleason, Esq,
and Patrick Lyon favored extending time of
payment to the date finally voted
The treasurer was authorized to borrow
not more than $4,000 to pay any immediate
liabilities of the village, and the organiza-
ton of fire and hook and ladder companies
was left to the trustees.
The village also voted to grant the use of
Capital hall, heated and lighted, to the
Montpelier Military band during the win
ter, that they might give weekly concerts
also to the state department eDCampment
of the Grand Army of the Republic for their
coming convention; also to Brooks Post,
Grand Army of the Republic, for the impend-
ing two weeks entertainment by the glass
blowers. 1t was also voted that the fire.
men be paid as heretofore, and that the
Montpelier Military Band be charged moth
ing for the use Of Capital hall for its late fair.

the village would like and would be proud
of, there is one remedy-a more faithful and

particular upon the character or ability Of
the various officers chosen, it must be said
that the methods and agencies employed
the animus and conduct of the immediate
ringleaders, are open to criticism, and
some of them to severe apprehension. The
meeting was not exactly an ideal assem-
blage of citizens of free, intelligent, tenn
perate, self-governing community.
