A Younger Man Mnnted.

Much is being said in the papers about
who should be the next governor of YER

at Chicago, it is argued that VT should
have big man for governor and George
f. Edmunds is suggested as the man. !

would prefer a younger man, one to rep
resent the rising generation. There is a
man in Orange county that has been spok-
en- OF by several OF the state papers as just
the man to fill the bill, Victor /. Spear of
Braintree, a member of the Board OF Ag-
riculture, who has been indefatigable in
his efforts to advertise and develop the
resources of VT. He is we'll spoken of by
everybody, he is modest and unassuming,
is a farmer, and VT. has mott had r farmer
governor since the day of good old Jonas
tialusha, and inasmuch as Vt. is an agri-
cultural state, think the people had bet
ter let the colonies and lawyers attend to
their own affairs and nominate the young
farmer who will represent the farming in
terest. Massachusetts, has a much young

The liovernor Qnestion.

The attitude OF many OF the leading men
on this side of the State on this question
has been thus far one of waiting for the
preferences of tine republicans OF the east
side to concentrate, as between the several
good republicans and worthy citizens
named for the nomination. In the opin-
ion of well informed persons in four of the
largest counties on the east side of the
mountain, the indications of preference
at this time are decidedly in favor of Col.
Fuller of Brattleboro-basedu upon his high
personal character, his hbcrality and pub
lie spirit, and determined largely by the
belief that his wide acquaintance in other
States and his energetic interest in the
farming and manufacturing industries OF
our state, can be and will be OF great SER
vice 10 the material interests OF Vermont,
especially during the period of strong com
petition and development attending the
great Columbian exposition. such consid-
erations as these are the influences which
should decide the question, rather than
The manipulations OF wire-pullers, or the
personal ambitions of individuals. The
question, however, is still open, and is
likely to be up to the meeting OF the
conyention.-Free Press.

The tribute Of the Watchman to Hon. II.
A. Fletcher "whom it is no missioner
to call a representative farmer and who
has record OF unswerving devotion TO
the interests of his class and the state at
large" is richly deserved, and, inasmuch
as the Messenger has never believed that
the occupancy Of the Lieut. .-Governorship
should operate as bar to the nomination
for the higher position, it could not be
chargeable with inconsistency in advocat- :
ing the nomination Of Mr.. Fietcher.-St.
Alhans MESSENGER.

All that the Watchman says in regard
TO VIM Chaplin of Middlesex is iully en-
dorsed By this paper, which has several
times urged the consideration Of his name.
That it has not been more persistent in
this regard may possibly be attributed to
the fact that, as long ago as the Sd of Feb
ruary, the Watchman announced that Mr..
Chapin must not be considered in connec-
ton with the Governorship as, so said the
Watchman, "We nominated him last sum-
mer for Representative in Congress, and
that is the place for him. -St.Albans Mes.

Gnod Words for Spear.

From many sources we hear good words
for Senator Spear as a candidate for gov
ernor, and it is becoming more and more
evident every day that the people are most
fayorably impressed with the suggestion.
A plain man of the people, with his hon
ors honestly earned and a record OF lots OF
good work well done; a broad minded
and well-trained and qualified man of af-
fairs, Victor /. Spear will prove an ideal
candidate.-Har wick Gazette.

THE HERALD does uot often get left.
About six months ago it was offered Sc

preciated its enterprise when enjoying
those articles, the last of which was fin

The Yermont lnmnnien.

/ And first we will speak Of Charles a.
/ Prouty of Newport. Mr.. Prouty holds an
unquestionable position as the most brill
/ liant lawyer OF his generation in Vermont,
and is precisely the kind OF man the Her
/ aid wants To see In public office now and
at all times. He wants no qualification
for the place aud none but wider acquaint-
ance for the candidacy, and that would
come ii be were nominated. He would
make ticket abundantly strong and give
1t the most satisfactory impetus in this
year or any other.
Again, there is William Chaplin OF Mid
dlesex, farmer and member OF the State
Board Of Agriculture. Mr. Chaplin is a
Vermont Abe Lincoln, ,shrewdness, quaint
ness and all. He is familiar with state af-
fairs and would fill the executive chair
ably, while be is known all over the State
i'm such way that his name would be an
excellent one to draw votes.
Wm. EJohnson Of Woodstock is anoth-
e. lawyer who would make an excellent
governor. He is unlike Mr.. Proutv, hav-
ing strength rather in the line Of broad
good sense than brilliancy. But with Mr..
johnson nominated the whole state would
know that the 'thimble" had been appli-
ed, and that to some purpose. Older resi-
dents OF Woodstock often say that he has
many of the characteristics of Judge Jacob
ColIamer, whose grandson he is.
And yet another man-and not Decessa-
rily the least because he happens 10 be the
last named-is Henry A. Fletcher of Cav
endish, the present lieutenant governor
Mr. Fletcher is, like Mr.. Chaplin, farmer
who farms, and, like him, is a fine repre-
sentative of the class which makes so
large part of the state. He has an excel
lent knowledge of affairs, his most promi-
nent characteristic is broad ''level headed
ness.n and he would unquestionably sat
isfy his party in the campaign and his
state in the otfice.-Rutland Herald.

Allen Eastman Cross contributes fine
tribute TO Cardinal Manning in the April
New England Mag azine. 1t is based upon
a newspaper paragraph, which in noting
his beneficence said that, at his funeral
the best thing said of him was, "He was
good to the poor This alone is a noble
epitaph." Mr.. Cross takes this for the
title and central idea OF his poem, which
all lovers of Manning will cherish.
"The tree of deepest root is found, least
willing still TO leave the ground, and this
could once have been most truly said OF
chronic pain of any sort. But after the
lapse Of SO many ages, a sovereign remedy
has been found in Salvation Oil, every
provident householder should keep it.
Mr.. S. b. Whitney, the organist and
choir master of the Church OF the Advent
of Boston, contributes a good descriptive
article on "Surpliced Boy Choirs in Amer
ican to the April New England Magazine.
1t is very fully illustrated.
When you are troubled with dizziness,
your appetite all gone, and you feel bad
generally, take few doses of DR.. Henry
Baxter's Mandrake Bitters, and you will
be surprised at the improvement in your
feelings. Every bottle warranted to give
satisfaction.

Rheumatism is quickly cured by using

1t has been conjectured that the secret OF
antedeluvian longevity was some method
of keeping the blood pure, warm and Wig
orous. Moderns accomplish the same pur-
pose by using Ayers Sarsaparilla-the best
blood medicine ever brought to light.
No medicine has had greater success in
checking consumption, in its early stages,
than Ayers Cherry Pectoral. 1t stops
coughing, soothes the throat and lungs,
and induces much-needed repose. Hun
dreds have testified to the remarkable vir-
tues of this preparation.

ED. WoRID:-Grass on the range
y better this year than il h.. hoe,

crop OF hay where there has been no
stock on it this spring. MANY are a.
ready moving and the prospect !.
'na' there will be more hay put up
TINS year than ever before, as the Wild
meadows are excellent also. We are
thankful for the sympathy extended
% the people Of this valley on &C.
count OF the invasion Of cattle from
other counties. A bunch Of about
800 head went up the valley last
week. They were in charge Of the
Douglas Bros, of Boise valley. Thew
camped one night on Gold Fork, then
drove the cattle back to Round val.
ley. They said party of three men
came to their camp at midnight and
asked them to take the cattle out Of
the valley. Not receiving the desir-
ed promise, one of the three gave !
signal. In an instant they were sur
rounded by one hundred mounted
men who gave them their choice-ei-
ther to drive the cattle out Of Long
valley by certain time or they
would save them the trouble. They
chose to drive them back themselves.
The night was too dark to distinguish
any one in the crowd.
Last fall couple came into the
valley and were known as Mr.. Ball
and his daughter, Miss May Ball. The
young lady received attentions from
several young men, but finally show.
ed a decided preference or one whc
waited on her all winter. Last spring
the community was thrown into 6
fiutter of excitement by Mr.. Balls ex
position of his family affairs. May
was his wife. They had been mar
ried but short time previous to theil
location in Long valley. Their rea
name is Hull. They changed thei
names and made themselves knowr
as father and daughter to secure 32(
acres of land. The girl had playee
her part too we'll to suit the old man
He became jealous and gave thu
