POLITICAL POINTS.

Eight states held conventions on
the 2Sth ult. In most of the repub-
lican conventions a decided prefer
ence was expressed for Harrison,
and in the one democratic state con-
vention held on that day Cleveland
was the hero.
In the Nebraska republican state
convention last week the delegates
were instructed to vote for Harrison
first, last and all the time" Ne
braska seems to have adopted the
tactics employed by Vermont four
years ago, and will stand by her
choice from the beginning to the end.
Hon. F. D. Hale of Lunenburgh is
receiving assurances OF support for
auditor from all over the state, and
he will go before the state conven-
ton with a strong following. His
candidacy is favorably received by
the state press. who are saying all
manner of good things about him.
He is unquestionably the strongest
candidate in the field.
The platform adopted at the re-
cent convention of Vermont republi-
cans has excited considerable favora-
BILE comment all over the country be-
cause of its brevity and pointedness.
The New York Mail and Express says
of it: THE Vermont republican
state platform is only ten lines long.

protection, an honest dollar and an
honest ballot, and that is enough"
DEATH OF GEN WILLIAM WELLS.
The sudden death, at New York on
Friday last, of Gen. William Wells of
Burlington greatly startled the
people Of that city, where he was
especially prominent in business and
political circles Gen. Wells was
in New York attending the meeting
of the National association of Sons
of the Revolution. Some time ago
while at his home in Burlington
he was very i'll with heart disease,
but recovered and was apparently in
his usual health.
He was born in Waterbury Dec
II, 1887, and was consequently in his
55th wear AT the commencement
of the rebellion he was in mercantile
business; in September, 1861, he en-
of which he became major in October,
1862; he took part in General
Banks Shenandoah campaign and
General Pope's Virginia campaign,
served in the cavalry of the Army of
the Potomac, and was breveted
major general in March, 1865. Gen.
Wells commanded brigade of the
Army of the Potomac and was for
time in command of the third cavalry
division. When he was mustered
out in January, 1866, he was at the
head of brigade at Fairfax Court
house. Twice he was wounded He
was a member of the Vermont legis-
lature in 1866. adjutant general
and Inspector general of the state
from 1866 to 1872, collector of in

Almy, the murderer of Christie
Warden, has asked for a new trial,
on the ground of insanity. The plea
he makes is that the first shot he
fired at the girl was accidental, and
that his mental condition then be-
came such that he was afterward
irresponsible. This is remarkably
small loop-hole through which TO
allow Almy to escape the penalty al
ready imposed upon him. and there
is no likelihood that his attempt to
secure new trial will succeed. The
"first shot" was the shot he ought
never to have fired.
Ravachol, the French anarchist,
who was lately let off by a timid
jury with imprisonment for life, is to
be tried again, this time for murder,
and will probably get what he de-
served in the former trial-Jhe ex
IRENE penalty of the law. A con-
fessed destroyer of life and property,
the people of Paris will not feel easy
until the arch-anarchist is put beyond
all chance of doing further harm.
Well done, louisiana The official
returns of the recent election in that
state show that Foster, the anti
lottery candidate for governor, was
elected by handsome plurality.
There is yet some hope for state
that can bring about such result
in the face OF so strong opposition
from the friends of thelottery scheme.
Henry M. Stanley has a political
bee in his bonnet and wants to enter
the British parliament. He wrote
recently the Liberal-UniOnist party
asking them to find seat for him to
contest in the coming elections. His
proposition has been unfavorably re-
ceived, however, owing to his un
popularity in England on account of
his trea tment of Major Barttelot.
So far as St. Johnsbury's part in
Russian relief is concerned, Capt.
Fisher is now making a house-to-

community may have a proper share
in the movement for the aid of the
starving Russians.

An old barn on the premises of Eli
Tryon, in Peconsett district in Portland,
CT, has been the home of a large wood
chuck during the winter. He ventured
out the other day for the first time, and
had an experience which he did not eX-
pect. A large cat owned by MI. Tryon
claimed the exclusive rights and priyil-
eyes of the barn, and when the wood
chuck made its. appearance fight for
possession resulted. The noise attracted
the attention of Mr.. Tryon, who watched
the proceedings until the woodchuck
was knocked out The fight was
fierce one and lasted 80 minutes. The
cat was badly used up, but wears a thor

MAGAZINE NOTICES.

The April number of the Forum con-
tains discussion of the Hill and anti
Hill issues in New York (opropos of the
two Democratic State conventions to Sc
lect delegates to the National conven-
tion), by Frederic R. Coudert, of the New
York bar, who is the leader Of the Dem
ocratic opposition to Senator Hill. Bear
ing upon the same subject is an article
by Mr. Matthew Hale, of Albany, the
well known constitutional authority on
the process whereby the present Senate
of New York was changed from Republic
can to Democratic. Mr.. Hale goes into
details, and does not hesitate to place
the responsibility of this act where he
thinks it belongs-on Gov. Hill. Anoth-
er notable political article is an explana-
ton of the condition in which the presi-
dental campaign finds the Democratic
party-The Democratic Outlook and OPP
portunity-by Congressman William l..
Wilson, of West Virginia.

We publish elsewhere the reply of the
Kennebec Journal to the stories which
have been industriously circulated to the
effect that Gov. Burleigh was trying to
pack the management of the Insane Hos
pital with supporters of his congression-
al candidacy in the Third district. 1t is
an absolute denial that he has ever un-
dertaken to do any such thing. The
Journals observations as to the consid-
erations which should govern the selec-
ton of the management are sound and
exceedingly creditable. The insane hos
pital, above all other of the State institu-
tons, should be divorced from politics,
and there ought to be no such state of
affairs existing that anybody can say
with truthfulness that the management
can send fifty men to a caucus to vote
for anybody, whether it be Mr.. Marley,
Gov. Burleigh or Mr.. Milliken. When
ever such a thing can be truthfully
said it shows that either the manage
ment have selected men to take care of
the insane largely on account of their
political views, or have coerced them
into certain line of political action by
a threat, direct or indirect, that they will
be liable to be discharged if they adopt a
different line. The employees of the hos
pital should have equal rights with other
men to vote as they see fit, and their re-
tention or discharge should be made to
depend solely upon their efficiency or
ineficiency in the performance of their
duties To put a man on to the manage
ment because he could be depended
upon to coerce the employees into voting
for particular congressional candidate
would be scandalous; and it is no less
scandalous to allow one to remain them
who has been guilty of such thing.

The official withdrawing of Judge
Maynard by the Democratic investigating
committee of the New York legislature
is not proceeding quite so smoothly as Mr..
MAYNARD and his chief, Mr.. Hill, could
wish. The members of the Bar commit
tee which investigated the case and found
Maynard guilty are speaking their minds
with altogether too much frankness and
clearness to make it agreeable for the
whitewashers or the whitewashed.
Thus Mr.. Frederick Coudert, one of the
members of the Bar committee and him
self prominent Democrat, when asked
what proofs he had found of Maynard's
guilt replied as follows:
81 was going to say that when l found by the
records that on the 22d day of December Isaac
III, Maynard took from the ComptollerS office
an election return, lawfully deposited there on
its Way to the State Board OF CanyaSSerS, and
handed it back to Storm EmanS, who had no
more right to it than l have, by this act prevent
ING it from reaching its lawful destination, and
having it's lawful effect; and when l saw that
Judge Maynard had sat silent in his seat at the
final meeting of the State Board of canvaSSerS,
when the members of that Board protested that
the reason that they were counting the Mylod
certificate was because they had no other re-
turns before them, he knowing that the reason
