Taking into consideration the fact
that the st. Johnsbury Daily Republic
can is yet in its swaddling clothes, this
great tlopadoodle act of theirs which
would do honor to an experienced
acrobat, astonishes the natives. A
tremendous dose of soothing syrup
was administered to the St Johnsbury
infant in the form of place on the
State committeeship to one of its edit
ors. Don't fall into the error of mis-
taking this fiopadoodle act for genuine
repentance for they are not related,
even by marriage. A majority of the
republicans of Orange county by their
delegates in convention, supported one
of her own sons, Hon. " L. Spear of
Braintree, for the high position of
Governor, Your correspondent being

editorial of last week among other
things, said:
''From the result we are convinced that
our former statement was correct. that
some parties were making use OF Mr.. Spear
only as a means to defeat Col. Fuller"
In general way the result of the
convention did show just what the

a fact beyond question, that so far as
Mr.. Spears supporters in Orange
county are concerned, his vote was the
result Of a genuine appreciation of
Mr.. Spear as man of ability and true
worth, without malice to the success
full candidate, hence we are spared the
modification of the great and only
fiopadoodle act invented and kept for
future use by those St. Johnsbufy
boys. Now, then, here's the problem,
if before the convention Col. Fuller
was not, in the eyes Of the ST. Johns
bury Republican,, fit for governor,
(thlnk of the cussed mean things they
said about him) and the next day after
the convention Levi X. Fuller, COVER
nor elect. was plenty good enough for
them, the axiom must be, to wit: at
was lie before the convention or a
falsehood after, else it was falsehood
before the convention or lie after
wards" Select whichever horn of the
dilemma seems most congenial. The
decalogue of God handed down from
Sinai has no place in American poll
tics. Orange county republicans can
endorse and support Col. Fuller cheer
fully and heartily, because there was
not mixed in their campaign for Spear
any of that sewer politics which gives
strength, vigor and tone to the crow
eating industry.
