Are we in Danger

Every little while somebody starts up
and undertakes to terrify us with the idea
that we are in danger. Either the navies
ofEurope are coming over to devastate
our coasts or lombard our defenceless cit
les. or Canada is about to launch navy
on the lakes and sweep down upon us from
the north. Col. Dodge is the latest TO
sound the alarm in the Forum. He does
not tell us anything that under the CIR
eumstances which he imagines may not
he possible. but the probability OF what
he portrays ever transpiring is too remote
for contemplation. And supposing the
government should go in and build all the
defences in the way of forts and ships that
he suggests we should need war right a.
way to make them Of any use. The de-
fences of to-day are liable to be worthless
to-morrow. 1t seems to us as though there
was no other way than to allow things to
continue as they are, and II danger arises
then seize at once upon the latest means
Of defence, and make ready for the emer-
gency that has come upon us. What Is
the sense in building forts to crumble and
decay. or ships to rust and rot in our har-
bors. or wear out on iunketing expeditions
II is possible that some of the European
nations win come over here to conquer
this defenceless country, but they Will
come il the steerage of old emigrant ships.
II any old king on the other side has
scheme Of this kind let him start up and
we win set back fire that will demand
his immediate attention. Even while Col.
Dodge is cautioning us against the Cana
dams they are seeking closer alliance
with us for commercial purposes and they
show by their conduct that they would
not be averse to political union. Peaceful
union Of Canada with us is, much more
probable than the fitting out of ornaments
on the lakes or the opening of the way
through her territory for the advance ot
English forces. The Col. had better go and
talk fo The marines.

EVERYONE WANTS

A local newspaper and many also wish
for more general news than it is possl-
BILE for any Vermont paper to furnish.

choice of either of the several leading
city weeklies, (see clubbing rates) for
only 81 80. Thus the best local news
paper and large general newspaper
can be secured at less rate than most
of the local state papers in this part OF
the state cost alone. Subscribe now.

Brighton, England, on Tuesday night
Oct. 6. His death came sudden and un-
looked for and fell like thunderbolt up
on the clubs and political circles in Lon
don. He may not have been as well as us
ual but only few days before he made a
speech at Creegs in Ireland, though hard
ly equal to the undertaking. His death
falling so sudden it was at once rumored
that he had been murdered or had COM
mitted suicide. The account OF his death
and of his career as the great Irish leader
occupy a large space in the daily papers.
II is difficult to know what to say Of him
in the small space we can give. There is
one thing certain, the estimate made of
his character now is very different from
that which would have been made had he
died two or three years ago. His recent
life has been involved in scandals that
place him before the world in anything
but the character of hero. His distin-
guished public career cannot wipe out the
shame Of his later private life. 1t is even
asserted that his death comes as relief TO
Ireland, that sadder example OF a great
career destroyed by folly would be difficult
to find. He entered parliament at 20 and
formed one in the ranks OF the despised
Irish members. He was not great orator
such as the Irish have produced, but be
was statesman, and he knew how TO
seize upon every opportunity to push his
measures and with such persistence that
it took only a short time to bring himself
into the position Of the acknowledged
leader OF the Irish. His career is more re-
markable in view of the fact that he was
Protestant, uniting in his support the
whole Catholic hierarchy Of Ireland. He
was landlord but he held the confidence
of the tenantry. He was OF cold exterior,
without any personal magnetism vet he
could sway the multitudes. He guided the
land league, he became president OF the
home rule party and gave it significance
it did not before possess. Attempts were
made at various times TO fasten upon him
responsibility for the violence going on in
Ireland but without success. 1t was one
OF the triumphs Of his life when he bro't
the London Times to its knees, and secur-
ed from it a retraction and a vindieation.
But he is dead and the cause of Ireland
must seek some other champion.

The Political Outlook.


The general political interest this fall
centers in three states, Ohio, New YORK
and Mass. Governors and some other
general officers are to be elected, and It IS
thought that much will be determined re-
garding the result next year. In Ohio the
tariff is made prominent feature of the
campaign. This is owing, no doubt,to the
fact that the leader of the Republican for
ces is the author of the present tarin Dill.
The tariff will be more thoroughly discuss
ed before the people than it has even been
before, and the republicans feel confident
that the better it is understood the more
sure they are of success. The canvass is
being thoroughly made,a and the democrats
will leave no measure untried to enable
them to keep the power they now hold.
In New York the issue more nearly con-
Germs the management of political affairs
The Republicans seek purer administra-
tion of affairs, and the democrats desire to
keen the State in their own hands as they
see clearly how much depends upon this
in the campaign of next year. The repub-
licans have the advantage of being solid,
and of being led by a new man, and by
strong man. The democrats are divided,
hut whether divisions can be healed re-
mains to be seen. Tammany now seems
determined to rule or ruin. We hope it
win persist in this, for even then the re-
publicans viii have tremendous force to
overcome. In Mass, it seems difficult to
create much enthusiasm. Local issues are
scarce. National issues are too general.
The candidates are generally regarded as
excellent men. The only fault found IS
with the principles for which they stand.
There is one excellent feature about the
canvass. most of the leaders are good can
vassers. This is especially the case in Mass
GOV. Russell is hard to beat and Mr.. Allen
is showing himself no mean foe with whom
to deal. The people cannot fail to receive
much instruction in political matters. In
New York this feature is not quite SO
clear, though Mr.. Fassett is man of sol
id sense. and some Of his political utter
ances are worth remembering. The dem
ocrats. like a modern fair, must depend
upon the horse trot to draw, not upon the
address. It may be the iudicious use of
money will preclude the necessity of much
atalkee."

Desirable for Ladies.

The new Fashion Journals, published
by A. Mcdowell & Co., West ilth street,
New York, are again ON our table. The
superiority of these journals is abundant
ly shown on every page. ala Mode" is
the smallest of the three and is intended
for family use. 1t has many styles for
children and is only S150 per year or is
cents per copy. "La Mode de Paris IS an
elegant journal. filed with everything OF
tie latest style in Paris. This is a great
favorite with ladies who wish to keep
posted in the new styles as they come out
"Album dies Modes" is also a popular Par
.sian publication, many ladies giving it
the preference. 1t is replete with snch
styles as are patronized by the middle
classes, its designs being neat and plain,
yet all OF the richest character. These
three monthly journals claim to give the
earliest fashions and they are all printed
in Paris. They contain lessons in practi-
cal dressmaking, which are OF incompara-
BILE value and easy to understand. ia
Mode de Paris and the "Album des
Modes" are each $3.50 per annum or 35
cents for a single copy Samples can be
obtained from the house at single copy
prices if there is any difficulty in obtain
ing them from newsdealers.

Constitution to vote for whomsoever he
will. He may be bound by custom but
not by law. The Legislature of any State
has the right to go back to the old meth
cd and choose electors regardless of any
caucusses or conventions. The theory of
having electors was to secure through
them a President who should be indepen-
dent OF any political party--a representa-
tive OF all that was best in the nation. A
legislature can fix upon a method which
shall ignore a system that has been built
up outside Of constitutional OF statute
law. Would not this be better way than
to choose the President by direct vote OF
the people?
3. What is the machinery now in useg
There is in existence national committee
OF each OF the leading parties, perhaps OF
some OF the others. Soon these commit
tees, each acting for its own party, win fix
upon time and place for a national dele
gate convention. In each Congressional
district throughout the country there is a
district committee OF each party that is
fully organized. After a call for a nation
al convention has been issued-the repub-
lican for instance, these district commit
tees OF the party issue a call for district
convention to choose delegates TO the ma
tional convention. Each state is entitled
to as many electors as il has members OF
the House and Senate. The electors that
stand for the Senators are called electors
at large, and there must be a state COM
mittee to call state convention to choose
delegates to the national convention cor
responding to the electors at large. In
this national convention each state is al
lowed twice as many delegates as it has
electors. Under the new apportionment
the next electoral college, that Of 1892, win
consist Of i44 members, making 223 neces-
sary for choice. The national conven-
tions of each party will thus be made up
OF Sss delegates 445 Of these can nominate
the candidates and nomination is equiv
aIent to election in the case OF some one OF
the parties. 1t may happen that a single
delegate, without any provision, shall de-
termine who are to manage national affairs
These district conventions are also dele
gate conventions, the members of which
are chosen either from towns, as in Ver-
mont, or from districts, the boundaries OF
which are changed at almost every cleo
tion. Next year we choose a President,
who will enter upon his office, March 4,
1898, and all this complicated arrangement
must be carried out to meet the demands
OF d custom that should never have been
allowed to gain such prominence and also
strength in our government. It was new
er thought of in the beginning, and when
1 it began 20 grow, beyond doubt il would
have been checked could its oyershadow-
ing influence have been foreseen. We say
again we think the original scheme of an
electoral system a wise one, if some way
could have been devised to prevent its be-
ing neutralized by custom that no man
! dare set aside, even should the wish to do
so ever seize upon him.
