THE CONSIDERABLE ANTS.

The writer of the Brattleboro letter in
the last Sunday Republican came valiantly
TO the rescue of the Ants in an amusing
attempt TO show that the fight between the
two Democratic factions was never brought
an issue, and that the death of Mrs At
kins was providential event which saved
the final test from being made. The ''aged
leader is pictured as being ''borne from
the hail. when "but moment before he
had been relied upon to save his forces
from defeat. The proceedings culmin-
ated at this point and the Ants suspended
all hostiities. 1t was kind of the Ants
to do this-very kind indeed, in considera-
ton of the cold fact that an hour or so be-
fore this the Atkins men had wiped the
hoor with them and hung them up to dry
by majority of 119 votes. 1t appears
that it was perfectly we'll understood by
the convention that the vote on the meth
cd of electing the state committee was a
test vote, it being announced from the
platform, and shouted by both sides. over
and above all the noisy din, that a yves"
vote meant Atkins and mo- vote meant
Haselton.
In view of the effort to make it appear
that 1t wasn't much of a fight after all
and nothing was decided, the straightout
declaration of S. A. Billiard of Underhiu
who offered the amendment and forced the
fight for the Ants on the manner of elect
ing the state committee, is refreshing.
Mr. Underhill is quoted by the Rutland
Call as saying, sit was fair fight. The
chairman was impartial. Everything was
honest. The reason we did not win was
because we did not have votes enough.
That is the plain truth"
Here endeth the flood of ''the rising
tide"

GRANGE NEWS.

The working of the first and second de-
gree occupied a portion of the time at the
last meeting of Protective grange. There
seemed to be considerable business on
hand. A vote of thanks was extended to
the person presenting the grange with an
elegant ballot box, the workmanship of his
own hands. 1t was well supplied with
ballots which have been much needed of
late; also to the handy man who has fitted
cunningly devised arrangement to the
cupboard to keep the crockery in place.
Samples of Bramah eggs were shown
which must have astOnished Biddy herself,
one measuring eight inches, the other 7 -
inches in circumference. They tipped the
scales easily at half a pound. The eggs
were presented to the master with the re-
quest to answer the question, which is first,
the hen or the egg?
