CURRENT COMMENT.

We do not know of anything sillier or
more absurd than the clamors going up
from one section of the State press in
favor of young man for governor and
from another in favor of a farmer. What
we want is the best man, whether, he is
2l or II, a farmer or a physician st.
Johnsbury Republican.
The Messenger has before had reason
to call particular attention to the eX-
cellent service rendered the State of Ner-
mont by Congressman Powers. 1t is
with pleasure now that it commends his
most recent achievement, the securing of
a favorable report on the item providing
for an appropriation for a survey for
harbor at Adams Landing on North Hero
from the congressional river and harbor
committee. Judge Powers accomplished
this result not without great effort, but
his success bespeaks not only the recog-
milton of his claims which his colleagues
are constrained to afford him, but the
fact that he is ever sOlcitous for the best
interests of the State he represents st.
Adams Messenger.

EAsT-DAY PROCLAMATION.

In obedience to a custom which has been
observed by the good people of New England
until it has become time e-honored, and in de-
vout recognition of our dependence upon the
supreme ruler OF nations, ! DO hereby ap.
point FRIDAY, the FIFTEEN TIL DAY OF
APRIL NEXT, as II 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 polit
ical, educational, moral and religious inter-
ests OF our State and Nation.
And while, with grateful hearts we thank
Him for the bounteous blessings which have
been vouchsated to our land, letus remember
that across the Atlantic the great provinces
OF middle and southern Russia are suffering
the horrors of famine and pestilence.
Well has the prophet, Isaiah, described the
fasts which are acceptable in the sight of God.
ais not this the fast that have chosen? Is il
not to deal thy bread to the hungry, and that
thou bring the poor that are cast out TO thy
house? When thou sccst the naked, that thou
cover him; and that thou hide not thyselt
from thine own flesh? Then shall thy light
break forth as the morning, and thine health
spring forth speedily; and thy righteousness
shall go before thee and the Lord shall guide
thee continually, and satisfy thy soul in
drought, and make tat thy bones; and thou
shall be like watered garden, ana ike II
spring OF water, whose waters fail not"
Verify we are only stewards of Gods boun-
ty, 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
proclamations all eady issued by the execu-
tves OF many of our sister States, ], therefore,
earnestly request that on this day, especially
set apart as Il day tor good works, organized
action in this behalf be taken in every town
and village in our State, and that, in their re-
spcctive churches and places OF worship, the
clergy give prominence to this Christian duty
now resting upon all civilized peoples
Given under my hand and the seal of
the State, in Executive Chamber at
Hyde Park. this 25th day of March, in
lSeal the year of our Lord one thousand
eight hundred ninety-two, and of the
Independence OF the United States the
one hundred and sixteenth.

THE GovERNoRsHIp FIGHT,

The governor question has already re-
solved itself into Just this: viii the Re-
publicans of Vermont continue to be
driven to the support of selt-nominated
candidate whose ability is of the most
mediocre order and whose only qualifica-
ton is money, or will they prefer clean,
unassumng man of the people, thorough
ly equipped for the position, who has
not forced himself into public notice !.
This is plain question of yes or no, and
will soon have to be decided.
The above quotation gives the situation
as seen from the standpoint of that thor
oughly Independent journal, the Hard
wick Gazette, a week ago. 1t is a view
held to some extent by other papers and
by many voters on both sides of the
State. The only new feature of the cam
paign, and that not of much consequence,
is the appearance in the st. Johnsbury
papers of this week of letter from Col.
Fairbanks, who is travelling in Mexico,
to the effect that he will not be candi-
date. Col. Fuller is therefore in practi-
cal possession of the field, for the other
gentlemen mentioned, Mr.. Spear perhaps
excepted, are not running booms nor are
their friends for them.

THE O'NEIL CASE DECIDED:

John O'Neil, formerly a liquor deal
erat Whitehall, n. Y, used to send by
express jugs containing liquor to Gus
toners in the town of Rutland and vi
entity. He was indicted for violating
the law of Vermont, forbldding unlcens-
ed sale of intoXicants, and was conyict-
ed of 451 offenses against the law and
fines were rolled up to the amount of
S9lI0 and costs.
The number of offences was subse-
1uently reduced to 307 and the amount
ONeil should remain imprisoned three
lays for each dollar of fines or costs un-
paid. O'Neil appealed the case from the
county court. but final judgment was
given against him by the supreme court
If Vermont in February, 1856. O'Neil
appealed to the United States supreme
:ourt. Ex-senator Garland represented
O'Neil and ex-senator Edmunds his ma
tive State before that tribunal.
The main question at issue was wheth-
er or not the act of the State in arrest
ing the seller of the liquor was in viola
tion of the interstate commerce clause
of the federal constitution. The United
States supreme court has now decided
against O'Neil and dismissed the writ
If error. holding that the sale took
)lace in Rutland, and not in Whitehall,
md that therefore there was no federal
question involved of violation of the in
erstate commerce clause of the cOnsti-
ution. Justices Field and Harlan dis

Burlington, and this county will pre-
sent the name of Hon. Albert a.
Fletcher of Middlebury. There are per-
haps still other candidates in the field,
but these are the chief ones. But, even
if there were no more, the State would
be able out of the list given to select en-
tirely competent representatives.
Mr.. w. X. Page of Rutland writes that
he has arranged with the Central Ver-
mont for excursion tickets for fare one

NEXT WEEKS CONVENTIONS.

The conventions to be held next week
for the purpose Of choosing delegates to
represent the Republicans of the State in
the national convention will mark the
opening of the real work of the campaign
of 1892. The presence of eX-Speaker
Reed at the State convention and at the
district conyention will tend to give
things the right sort of start.
The State convention will be at Mont
pelier on Wednesday, the 18th inst. 1t
will elect four delegates-at-large. Yes
terday's daily papers announce that ex-
Gov. Dillingham; does not desire the place
of delegate. He had been talked of as
chairman of the delegation, which honor
will now in all probability go to either
Congressman Powers or Hon. j. W. Stew
art. Other gentlemen who have been sug-
gested for delegates-at-large are Col.

This term might be applied to Stevens
Point, located on the Wisconsin Central
lines, at the gateway to the vast forest re-
gion which extends north to Lake Superior,
q distance Of 200 miles, without break, on
account Of its vast lumber interests. The
Wisconsin river, to which the lumbermen
have given the familiar and somewhat
affectionate title of "Old Wiscons," not
alone acts as lumber feeder to the city by
furnishing through its numerous tributaz
ries an outlet for thousands of acres of
pine in the upper country, but it furnishes
water power that is second only to that
of Neenah and Menasha, which cities are
also located ON the Central" Millions of
feet of lumber are cut every year, giving
employment to hundreds Of men. In adj
dition to the lumber trade, it has numerous
other manufactures; it is here where the
large car shops Of the Wisconsin Central
lines are located.
