THE LEGIsLATIJRE.

MONTPELIER, Oct. 29th.-The Senate
met this morning with six senators on
one side of the chamber, Senator Brock,
whose home is in Montpelier, on the
other side, and President pro tenn Hall in
the chair. No one raised the point of no
quorum and half hours business was
done, whereupon an adjournment was
had until Monday afternoon.
About half the members of the House
were present and for a half hour the
clerks were kept busy reading the bills
introduced. Among the twenty-five pro-
posed new laws were some of general in
terest. The standing Windham county
fight over the county seat, was renewed by
Mr.. Read of Rockingham, whe introduced
a bill providing for the erection of county
buildings at Brattleboro. He wished to
have the bill referred to a special COM
mittee, whereupon Mr.. Weston of New
fame objected. A few minutes later Mr.
Weston introduced a bill providing for
the repair of the present county build
ings at Newfane. The whole matter was
made special order for Wednesday af-
ternoon at 2.30 o'clock, at which time it
is possible the long standing Brattleboro-
Newfane fight may be fought to finish.
MIR. Bigelow of Brookfield believes that
OhO O"o1lIR anu COuuIluB Vi JEALOUS Will
be simplified if those for the different Of
fees be printed on different colored pa
per, and his bill periodically provides
that red, white and blue be the three
colors. Mr. Boynton's bill relative to
county taxes is of interest to county off,
GERS and town clerks. Still another COM
mission is called for in the bill intro
duced by Mr.. Read of Vernon. He thinks
the boundary line between Vermont and
Massachusetts, ought TO be more distinct
ly marked and would have the governor
appoint commission for this purpose.
Mr.. Ware of Brookline thinks that relig-
ious societies ought to pay taxes on all
holdings except church and parsonage
lands and backs up his belief with a bill
to that effect.
The interchangeable mileage ticket
bill, introduced on Friday by Mr.. Bacon
of Hartford, allows the railroad commits
sioners to exemp any road, ''if, IN their
Judgment, the public welfare, successful
financial operation or the financial con-
dition of the road require or demand it."

POIsONFD BY sCROFULA.

Is the sad story of many lives made mis-
cradle through no fault of their own.
Scrofula is more especially than any 9th
er hereditary disease, aud for this sim
pie reason: Arising from impure and in
sufficient blood, the disease locates its
elf in the lymphatics, which are COM
posed of white tissues; there is period
of fetal life when the whole body con-
sists of white tissues, and therefore the
unborn child is especially susceptible to
this dreadful disease. But there is a
remedy for scrofula whether hereditary
or acquired. 1t is Hoods Sarsaparilla,
which by its powerful effect on the blood
expels all trace of the disease and gives
to the vital fluid the quality and color of
health. If you decide to take Hoods
Sarsaparilla do not accept substitute.

WEDNESDAY NIGHT'S FIRE,

Tbere was an alarm of fire about Z 80
O'Clock Wednesday evening, gN0wing
out of the discovery of fire in the back
end of the cellar of Mr.. Negus' store.
The first indication that there was any
thing wrong was seen in the Danyew
barber shop, in the second story, whe re
smoke appeared. The firemen respond
ed very quickly, and within three min
utes after the alarm two lines of hose had
been run from the hydrants on Main
street at Park place, and two strong
streams were playing on the fire. 1t was
soon extinguished, and but little dam ag
was done. The fire was found to be in
a box of rags in one corner of the rear
cellar. Mr.. Negus, who has been out of
health all winter, was sick in bed at the
time. The loss, whatever it may be, is
covered by insurance, Mr.. Eldredge's
agency having $1,000 on the stock and
$4,000 on the building, and Mr.. Brooks
agency $4,000 on the stock and $1,000 on
the building.

THE GovERNORSHIP.

The minds of the editorial brethren of
the State are much agitated over the
governorship question. Col. Levi X.
Fuller of Brattleboro and Col. Franklin
Fairbanks of st. Johnsbury are known
to be In the field for the place, Major
Josiah Grout of Derby is "mentioned'
and other possible candidates are hinted
at. The st. Adams Messenger and one
or two more papers are looking for a
farmer, but do not name their man. The
Rutland Herald is asking for larger tim
Der than governors have been made of in
late years, thereby calling down the
wrath of almost all its esteemed con-
temporaries, each of whom seems to
think its pet candidate has received a
whack. The Burlington Free Press is
for both Fuller and Fairbanks; at least
that seems to be the purpOrt of its leader
on the subject yesterday. The situation
altogether is decidedly mixed, and 1t
looks as If fresh candidate of the right
sort might go through. The seekers
after farmers candidate might, per-
haps, proiitably turn their attention to
Hon. William Chaplin of Middlesex, who
would seem to be the ideal person for
that honor,

During the first week in March the
Central Vermont railroad will send its
advertising agent to each station on its
system in Vermont, to afford personal
interview and the last opportunity, for
those desiring to take summer boarders,
to have their names inserted in the re-
vised edition, for 1892, of "Summer
Homes among the green hills of Vermont
and along the shores of Lake Champlan. "
A.. Notices of the date, when the agent will
be at each place, may be found in the
stations and postofiices in every town
and village. Don't get left.

The State press continues to urge the
utility of road convention. The idea is
an excellent one. 1t should be held in
Bridport about the middle of April. The
delegates should be taken out from Mid
dlebuTy over the main road and brought
back through Weybridge. Gov. Page,
who is the official head of the board of
agriculture, under whose direction it is
proposed to have the convention, might
read paper on "Jordan and the High
way to Fame through the Governorship
Compared"

The agricultural committee of the ma
tional House of Representatives is about
to enter upon an investigation of the
effects of the Mckinley tariff on agri-
culture; but as majority of the COM
mittee are Democrats it is hardly to be
expected that they will find in favor of
the act. But it is unfortunate that there
cannot be non-partisan investigation
in this direction. The best data now OBJ
tainable are bald assertions of friends or
enemies of the protective policy, of no
value except for campaign purposes and
of very little for that. The consequence
of lack of definite information is that
nine-tenths of what is written and talked
on tariff matters is pure bOsh.
