VERMONT ELECTION,

The Vote Shows Republican Majority
of About 21,OOO.
WHITE RIVER JUNCTION, W.T., Sept. g.
The election throughout the state today
passed off quietly. Forty towns give
Fuller (Rep.), 1886; Smalley, (Dem. I,
2724; Allen (Pro.), 2Sl; scatter
ing, 232. The vote thus far
shows Republican decrease of 1870
or 20 per cent. and the Democratic de-
crease of five or two-tenths of one per
cent, compared with 1888. Conn
pared with 1890, the Republi-
can increase is LIZ or 10 per
cent, and the Democratic decrease
22O, or per cent. If the vote contin-
ues relatively the same az in the towns
80 far received, the Republican maiori-
ty in the state will be about 81 600. The
vote from the largest towns has, not yet
been received, however.
The Prohibition vote shows less
change, when compared either with the
vote Of 1888 or 1880, than the vote of
Republicans or Democrats, although lit
tie work was done throughout the state
by the cold water advocates.
FulIer's majority over Smalley, thus
far, is 5000, or over all, $500,

An Attempted Quadruple Tragedy Fails
in Execution.
ST. LOUIS, Sept. 6.-An attempted
quadruple tragedy ended this afternoon
with but one fatality. G. w. Lewis, a
dissolute painter, whose wife left him
some time ago, called at her fathers
home, where she was living. and
asked to zee his baby. His wife's
sister. Miss McGuigan, brought
out the baby, and Lewis, drawing
revolver, attempted to shoot the child.
Miss McGuigan seized the pistol by the
muzzle and received painful wound in
the hand. Mrs. Lewis then rushed out
and her husband fired at her, inhicting
a painful wound in the thigh. She fell.
crying out that she was killed, and
Lewis, believing he had completed his
intended mission, blew out his own
brains.

field park track for a pecuniarv consid.
GRAFTON, he said:
About three weeks ago Chief of Po-
ice McClaughry told me that James
Burke, who was interested in the Haw-
tnorne track, had come to him and told
MIN that they would pay big money il
we closed up the Garfield people,"
Inc mayor added that the chief told
him Burke said if the Garfield park
track was closed, the Hawthorne people
would contribute $4,000 to the cam
paign fund.
THE MAYOR GIVEN THE LIE,
When Chief McClaughry was called to
the stand, and when asked ii Burke ever
suggested that the Hawthorne people
would give $4,000 to have the Garfield
track closed up, replied emphatically.
''No, he never did,"
"Did you talk to the mayor about
Burke's proposition to give $4,000 to
the campaign fund if the Garfield
track is closed?"
'No. SIR"
Burke?"
Eyes, some but did not know until
lately that he was Hawthorne man."
In reply to the reiterated question,
Chief McClaughry emphatically stated
that he had never talked to Mayor
Washburne, as that gentleman had de-
clared he had, and said that any state
ment to the contrary was false.
The cases were then postponed one
day for argument.
Mayor Washburne is very indignant
over the fact that he has been given the
lie by the chief of police, but refused to
be interviewed.
Chief McClaughry, when seen about
the matter, said: eff the mayor says
he was offered a bribe, perhaps it is
true ]. he ought to know.''
This matter is the sensation of the
day.

Our Dairymen at BrattlebOrO.

They were there-all that the hotels
and the big hall would hold; and a
more interested or interesting crowd it
would be hard to muster anywhere.
And the speakers were there, too, will
ing and able to interest and instruct
all who came to hear and see and learn.
The exhibit at the Armory was a good
one, and, as usual, this building was
crowded, too.
We this year adopt new method in
reporting the proceedings of the meet
ings of this Association. Instead of
crowding the news aud other columns
of the paper with an immediate report,
excluding much other matter of cur
rent interest to readers, we have con-
cluded that it would suit all around
much better to take time enough and
space enough to report every interest
ing point in our own department, at
least as fully, and less hurriedly, than
by the old way. Introductory and
complimentary speeches have but a
momentary interest to the general
reader, and it is enough TO say that
the genial Colonel George w. Hooker
made very neat and felicitous address
of welcome, responded to as neatly by
the Hon. Cloud Harvey of Barnet
President Arms is man of business,
and did not occupy much time in pre-
liminaries.
After dinner, Professor Cooke of the
Vermont Experiment Station discussed

that is, in butter material and cheese
material. 1t is for the interest of every
dairyman, whether he makes butter or
cheese, or both--whether he does his
own manufacturing, or sends his milk

Great Relief.

Mr.. Lucius S. Goodwin, carpenter, resid-

November (, 1891.

tism, and invariably with the best of re-
suits, 1t will reduce the inflammation and

THOSE who think there is no capac-
ity to speak for themselves among the
farmers, ought to go to few farmers
meetings. Where do you hear more
rafting, wide-awake oratory, mixed
with more sound, practical common
sense, than we get from men like John
Gould, Governor Hoard and some of
our own Vermont and other New Eng
land farmers? We have attended and
taken part in a good many public meet
ings and conventions, and if we are
any judge, the farmers do things up
about as neatly as the best of them.

should, the celebration of the SEVENTEEN
anniversary of the good old Ne,0 En-
gland Farmer, which is glowing with
renewed life and vigor under the fer
vent energy and ability of its new man
agement. Such a conjunction of age
with vivacity is rarely seen in agricul-
tural journalism. Never was there a
better union of sound agricultural sense
and modern push than is exhibited in
the conduct of our venerable young
contemporary, which is now fairly at
the head of agricultural journalism in

G. S. p, SOUTH RANDOLPH, VT,
writes to ask-referring to recent ex-
tract reprinted by us from the Stocbmdn
and Farmer" Would not the over
production theory have been exempli-
fed had it not been for the famine
in Europe? Would not corn-meal have
been selling for less than dollar per
100 pounds instead of S1.30 rs now, and
flour at from four to five dollars bar
rell, instead of six dollars and upwards?
In butter-making does not over-produc-
ton often bring prices down to very
low figure, not only for the poor butter
but for the good also?" To this we re-
ply that our correspondent is quite
right. America is and must long re-
main the country of cheap food, and
we ought to be thankful to have it so.
1t is not for the farmers interest to
have food dear, for this surely dimin-
ishes consumption, and ends in semi
starvation for large portion of the
poorer classes engaged in labor outside
of the farmland, in some coun tries,
even on the farm. American farmers
must seek for their profits by economi-
cal production, rather than from high
prices. But they must remember that
the farmer who is better one than the
average can make profit-for even the
average farmer must make living, or
lose his farm. There is room cup high"
for profit in farming-and this is really
all that can be said of any business.
The slack, incompetent men in all kinds
of business have chronic hard times, and
die poor. The only difference is that
the slack farmer can usually hold out
good deal longer than the slack manu-
facturer, merchant, mechanic or news
paper man. Ten men fail in other
business where one fails in farming.
But it will not long be so. Agriculture
is no longer refuge for the lame, the
lazy, or the ignorant. But it is a good
enough business for the intelligent, the
industrious and the enterprising men
who are satisfied with enough.

IL will be left to perish from the earth.
But now, and for long, Vermont is
little likely to provide suitable soil for
its cultivation. We belong almost
wholly to the new time, and the " time
spirit" very strong amongst us always,
grows steadily stronger. What real
students of the old literatures we have
in Vermont must and will be drawn
otherwheres. Manifest destiny is too
strong for the most strenuous will.

PROFESSOR ROBERTSON of Ontario
said, at Brattleboro: "When a COW has
been MIXED nine months or more, / do
not know of any system of setting the
milk which will enable the dairyman to
recover any more than thirds of the
butter fat in the milk" "Is this found
to hold true in general practice?" asks
the Maine Farmer; and we join in the
inquiry. If true, why have our dairy
men not seen the fact more plainly? 1t
seems to us that it would be easier to
see so big shrinkage than not to see
it. Consequently, we want more evil
dence. The professors statement
might to be true with at least part
of the Ayrshires, and the black and
white Dutch cattle but we have yet to
note anything like it in cows that we
have been milking from one calving to
the next, year after year.

THE Homestead says pea meal is the

meal, the equivalent of 1900 pounds
of bran. We suppose that our Cana
