A Word from Rutland County.

Editor Of Watchmon:-The Rutland Herald,
in its issue of March q, claimed that the
Herdld'S call for an able man for governor
had apparently killed the leading candidacy,
and set forth many other vain and absurd
things. Colonel Fuller, the Herald main
tanned, is weak man." The "weak-
ness " in this matter is on the side of the
Herald. Colonel Fuller is conceded by we'll
informed men in this and in other parts of the
state TO be the strongest candidate that has
been named. The well-informed men of
the state also know that the " Herdld's
work" will not harm Fuller's chances; it
will only help them. For half century
it came under its present management L had
implicit confidence in it. l wish the paper
no harm. 1t has been so long established
and has so long had the confidence of the
people of Rutland county that | feel anX-
ious that it may be restored to its longtime
common sense management 1t now has a
strong financial basis, is industrious now
in collecting news. and publishes large
amount of matter. But it will learn that
it is hurting itself by its cranky ways-such
as attacking Governor Page, throwing
clubs at Colonel Fuller, etc. tbs not obliged
to support Mr.. Fuller unless it chooses, but
why such an indecent exhibition of itself?
AS to the names of those men suggested
as candidates for governor, my own prefer
ence was for Lieutenant Governor Fletcher;
but | shall be ready to vote for Mr.. Fuller,
and judge from the Herdld'S course, that
he probably will be nominated. The drift
of public opinion here is in that direction.

Mrs. GRANT derived a fortune of
half million dollars from the sale of
the generals Memoirs; and the pub
fishers made another fortune out of the
book. General Sherman's book brought
him large income, and Sheridan's
two volumes yielded his widow $4,000
Mrs. Jefferson Davis share of the
profits on her hush ,nd's history of the
confederate struggle was about $4,000,
for which she has to sue, however, and
which will be much lessened by legal
expenses.
THE first shipment of Americ an pig
tin TO reach New York from San Fran
cisco arrived last week 1t weighed
$4,000 pounds. The tin is of the best
quality. 1t is known as Temescal, and
comes from the Temescal mines of Cali
fornia. The smelling works at Temes.
cal were started six months ago, and
the company running the mill desires
to have it known all over the world
that it can produce as fine tin as any of
the foreign concerns. All of which
will probably be pleasant news to our
democratic calamity friends.
THE observation-disclosures farce died
some weeks ago, but its originators
have not yet learned of the fact. There
are none so blind as those who will not
see. The Rutland Herald still persists
in bowling for a big-bore " candidate
for governor. The editor of that paper
has evidently soured on the human
family, and can see nothing good in
any one-unless he is representative

he will be elected, too-who will repre-

Congress-.

TUEsDAY.-In the house debate was re-
sumed on the free wool bill, Mr.. Butler of
Iowa making the principal speech in advo-
cacy of it. From an oratorical standpoint,
of his speech. Said he: "Ye tools of mo-
nopolies, We croakers in the aristocratic garb
of beggars, ye pretended paupers in the
homes of luxury, rise and declare nobler
American character; declare your ability to
compete on equal terms with all competit-
Ors. Put energy in the place OF wholesale
beggary, and cease wearing upon your
breasts the title of aristocratic tramps of
the highway of foreign trade" Mr.. Lawson
of Georgia also dilated on the beauties of
free wool
WORCESTERSHIRE senate committee on
privileges and elections decided to recon-
mend that 1000 be allowed to Mr.. Clag-
gett, the unsuccessful contestant for the
senate from Idaho; $1,000 to Mr.. Dubois,
the successful contestant; and $3.50 to
Mr.. Davidson, the unsuccessful contestant
from Florida. Mr.. Claggett could not have
had very good case. - The house COM
mittee on foreign affairs ordered favorable
report on the resolution introduced by Mr..
Chapman for inquiry into the operation of
the anti-Jewish laws of Russia on American
citizens.
THURsDAY.-In the senate the republic
can leaders were reported TO be quietly at
work to defeat the consideration OF the free
silver bill. The same conditions exist in
the senate which helped to defeat the meas
ure in the house. - In the house the
committee on rules brought in resolution
providing for an investigation of the census
bureau. 1t was arranged to have the in
vestigation conducted by the regular census
committee, which, say the people who want
the bureau investigated, will make it a
perfunctory task. 1t is a cold day in con-
| gress when some one does not bob up with
resolution to have something investigated.
| SATURDAY.-In the free-wool debate in
the house, Mr.. Mckinney of New Hamp-
shire stated that when " the high tariff was
placed upon wool, there were 1,300,0OC
sheep in Vermont. To-day there were but
100000. The million sheep died at the hand
of that robber known as the protective
! tariff"
MoNDAY,-Senator Proctor introduced a
bill to promote the efficiency of the militia
and making an appropriation of about
100000 for that purpose. - In the
house the Chinese exclusion act was passed
by a large vote. General debate closed on
| the frse-wool bill.

Saved the Board OF Agriculture.

During the session of the legislature
of 1886, when Colonel Levi X. Fuller
was lieutenant-governor, and by virtue
of his office president of the senate.
great hue and cry was made against the
Board of Agriculture, and bill, having
been pass I'd by the house, to abolish
The same, came before the senate. The
discussion in that body was brief, and
the vote upon the bill tie. Colonel
Fuller cast his vote against the bill and
the board was saved. We have heard
from time to time some criticisms
against the board, which have been
made for the greater part by those who
have prejudice against book farm
ing" or more particularly, perhaps,
against anything that another man
knows on the subject of agriculture.
The board is in being; and the two
men, William Chaplin and Victor l..
Spear, both prominently mentioned as
fit governor candidates, are on that
board, doing useful work for the bust
ness and farming interests of the state.
If Colonel Fuller had cast his vote the
other way, we imagine himself and Can
dates Chaplin and Spear would have
been very effeclu lilly "abolished :"
when the law went under.-Barten

day and in the same city, appeared
trio OF republicans that cannot be
matched on the stump in all this broad
land-William Mckinley, Thomas B.
Reed and Roswell G. Horr. Two mon
ster republican gatherings were held
simultaneously. On the democratic
rostrum tariff reform was the sole sub
ject discussed. Mr.. Cleveland read his
heavy and time-worn platitudes, and
Governor Campbell furnished the COM
edy for the packed and admiring demo-
cratic congregation. Although the state
has been full of congressional free
coinage orators, that issue has been stu
diously kept in the background by the
democrats. They have not told the la
borers in that hive of industry that
free silver means, practically, large re-
ducton in their wages. Tariff Reform
and the Ten Commandments, said Mr..
Cleveland, must be preached to the ex-
clusion Of everything else; till the re-
publicans shall be taught that protec-
tive tariff involves robbery, and that
the divine law, "Thou shalt not STEAL"
was made for all time.
But the big three on the republican
side saved the discussion from one
sidedness and from concealment of lead
ing and vital issues The whole broad
field of national politics was plowed,
narrowed and planted by Mckinley.
Reed and Horr. The real workings
and substantial benefits to laboring men,
merchants, m anufacturers-all classes
of the protective system-were shown,
and the dangers of free silver coinage
were set forth in argument and illustra-
ton, and enforced by wit, sarcasm and
eloquence such as is rarely brought to-
gether before one assemblage. Both
sides were fighting for the state for all
they were worth. The republicans have

Postponed, Not Defeated.

Although the free-silver coinage bill
was not passed when its passage was
expected, and the disaster is for time
postponed, there is no doubt of its final
passage, nor of the disposition of the
house. The important political fact is
that the great majority of the demo-
cratic representatives are in favor of
free-silver coinage with al its conse
quences, and the triumphant passage of
the bill at the end of the debate was
prevented only by republican action.
When Mr.. Bland, the free-silver leader,
demanded the previous question on the
passage of the bill, Mr.. Burrows moved
to lay the bill on the table, and claimed
precedence for his motion. The anti
silver democrats, and the free-silver
democrats, who for party reasons wished
to defer action until after the election,
followed the republican lead, and the
motion was defeated only by the vote

WEDNESDAY, APRIL 6, 1892.
Fast Day Proclamation.

In obedience to a custom which has been
observed by the good people of New Eng
land until it has become time-honored, and
in devout recognition of our dependence
upon the Supreme Ruler of Nations, do
hereby appoint Friday, the fifteenth day of
April next, as day of fasting and prayer.
Let us, on that day, abstaining from our
secular occupations and assembling in our
usual places of worship, reverently invoke
the blessings of Almighty God upon the
political, educational, moral and religious
interests of our state and nation. And
while, with grateful hearts, we thank him
for the bounteous blessings which have
been vouchsafed to our land, let us remem-
Der that across the Atlantic, the great
provinces of middle and southern Russia
are suffering the horrors of famine and pes
thence. Well has the Prophet Isaiah de-
scribed the fasts which are acceptable in
the sight of God: els not this the fast
that have chosen? Is 1t not to deal thy
bread to the hungry, and that thou bring
the poor that are cast out to thy house2
When thou seest the naked, that thou
cover him; and that thou hide not thyself
from thine own fesh2 Then shall thy light
break forth as the morning, and thine
health shall spring forth speedily; and thy
righteousness shall go before thee; and the
Lord shall guide thee continually, and sat
isfy thy soul in drought, and make fat thy
bones; and thou shall be like a watered
garden, and like a spring of water whose
waters fail not" Verify we are only stew
ards of Gods bounty and we can in no
more acceptable manner observe the fast OF
Isaiah than by joining in the merciful work
of relieving the necessities of this stricken
people. In accord with special proclama-
lions already issued by the executives OF
many of our sister states, therefore ear
nestly request that on this day, especially set
apart as day for good works, organized
action in this behalf be taken in every town
and village in our state, and that, in their
respective churches and places of worship
the clergy give prominence to this Chris
tian duty now resting upon all civilized
peoples.
Given under my hand and the seal of the
state, in executive chamber at Hyde

of presenting the name of Colonel
