Close up the Ranks.

The great battle of ballots viii be
fought and won or lost next Tuesday.
so far as Vermont is concerned all the
influence she will exert in this great
presidential campaign and in the great
contest between Free Trade and Pro-
lection will be determined next Tues
day by the size of her republican ma
Jority. If her citizens believe in the
wise, conservative and patriotic ad-
ministration of President Harrison,
vote for Levi X. Fuller next Tuesday.
There is no dodging the force of these
facts. Col. Levi X. Fuller will be
elected governor next Tuesday. No
one doubts this. 1t makes no differ
ence whether his majority is 1000 or
10000, he will be the next governor
OF Vermont. But it will make tre-
mendous difference in the doubtful
states what is the size of that majority.
The voters in those states do not know
or care what man is elected governor
in Vermont. They may not and prob
ably many of them do not even know
his name but they will know what the
republican majority is, and it may de-
termine the next presidential election.
The eyes Of the whole country are on
the little state of Vermont. The vot-
ers of a nation are waiting to hear
what verdict her intelligent freemen
pass upon the great questions that di-
vide the two parties.
DO her republicans endorse the great
principles of the republican party, Pro-
lection and Reciprocity and the admin
istration of President Harrison!
This is the great question.
The size of the majority for govern
or next Tuesday will tell
If we roll up an old-fashicaed repub-
lican majority for governor the fate of
the democracy is sealed. If we fail to
do this every democratic and indepen-
dent paper from Maine to California
will say ''yermont repudiates President
Harrison and that Grover Cleveland will
be the next president.
Let every republican rally around
the standard bearer of the grand old
party and do his part to make this
election the Waterloo Of democracy.

lchanical Engineers, is also interested in
lastronom.y. has an observatory OF his own
4 and the finest equatorial telescope in YER
mont. His library of scientific and tech
nical works is one OF the most complete.
Organizing the Fuller Light Battery, W.
National Guard, as an independent COM
pany in 1874 he has continuously served
herewith since, bringing 1t to degree OF
perfection universally commended by all
Regular Army Inspectors as second to no
military organization In the country and
adding greatly to the reputation of the
VT. militia. He was brevetted Col. in 1887
for long and meritorious service. He also
served as aid on the STAFF Of Gov Converse.
His acquaintance with the soldiers OF the
late war is extensive, and he is favorably
regarded by them.
His private business, however, has not
prevented him from participating actively
in public affairs, both local and state. He
has held important town and village Of
fees, is trustee Of the Brattleboro Saw
ings Bank and the Free Library.
In 1880 he was elected to the State Sem
ate, taking an active part in the impor-
tant legislation OF that session, including
what was then known as the "new tax
law, measure tending to equalize the
burden OF taxation and proving satisfac-
tory to the people. As member of the
Senate, he served as Chairman of the Com
mittee on Finance, upon the Committee
on Military Affairs, and that on Railroads.
In 1886 he was elected Lieutenant Gov
ernor, filling that position with credit to
himself and honor to the state, proving
himself one OF the best equipped presid-
ing officers the Senate has had.
Early in life he became connected with
the Baptist denomination, and has al
ways had an active interest in the success
OF the church Of his choice. His gifts,
however, have never been confined to that
faith, but his liberality to all denomina-
tions is proverbial.
His interest in educational matters Is
well known, one OF the most important in
this direction being that of the Vermont
academy at Saxton's River, to which he
has largely given both OF time and money
and under his management as President
OF the Board of Trustees, it has taken
high rank with institutions OF its kind in
New England.
He has always been practically interest
ed in agriculture and the development OF
that branch of Nermont's industries. His
purchase Of a farm and presenting the
same to Vermont Academy, introduction
Of fine bred sheep and other stock, and
the Inauguration of new features in con-
nection with practical farm educational
work has attracted wide attention.
He is a well-rounded, capable, public
spirited citizen, with an eye for the well
fare of all classes.

Levi K. Fuller is a self-made American
citizen of the best type.
Born in Westmoreland, n. H., Feb. "a
1s41, his parents of English and German
stock, removed in 1s45 to Windham coun-
ty, VT, where at the age OF 13 the boy set
out to make his own way in the world
with silver quarter in his pocket.
He attended the High School at Bellows
Falls and Brattleboro, worked at the trade
of printer and learned telegraphy. AT
sixteen, having developed an aptitude for
mechanics, he won premium for steam
engine improvement at the Windham
County Agricultural Society's Fair. Co.
ing to Boston he served an apprenticeship
as a machinist acting for time as night
telegraph operator at the Merchants Ex-
change. During great portion OF his
residence in Boston, he also took scien-
tific course at the evening schools.
Returning to Brattleboro In 1866, he en-
tered the Estey works as machinist and
mechanical engineer and later established
a machine shop OF his own, manufactur-
ing woodworking and other machinery
successfully.
In April, 1866, he entered with Col. Es-
tey the Arm of j. Estey & Co. (now the
Estey Organ Co.. experimenting the
manufacturing department, and for twen-
ty years has been Vice President OF the
Company. His relations with the en-
plOyes OF the Estey Company Wnetner IN
the former or latter capacity, have always
been most cordial and the attitude OF
Col. Fuller and his partners towards en-
ployed labor has doubtless proven one
very safe solution of the vexed question OF
"Capital and Labor +,
He has been a most indefatigable invent
or, his name appearing in the Patent Of
fee Records at Washington as the author
of hundred different inventions, many
OF great value.
His success in establishing personally
large European agencies for the Company,
and his many trips abroad in its interest,
have won for him recognition on both
sides OF the Atlantic as a broad man OF
business. On his trip in 1873, he was ten
dered by President U. s. Grant the APP
pointment as Commissioner to the Vienna
Exposition, which he was obliged to de-
cline on account of press OF private busi-
ness. The music trade OF two continents
acknowledge his success as a factor in
building the great Estey interests to their
present high position. His last achieve

A NATIONAL MATTER!

81 wish to impress upon you the
importance of the coming September
election. 1t is not state matter but a
national one. The vote cast for the
state ticket next month is really your
vote for president, and the expression
of your choice between the principles
Of the two great parties. The main
question cannot be covered up by any
state issues. If the republican party
maintains its average majority it will
be hailed as a republican victory. If
the democrats reduce that majority it
will be heralded far and wide as an
omen of democratic success in the ma
ton. You are individually RESPONSE
bic for full vote for Fuller and Stran-
ahan, and believe you will do your
duty and see to it that Vermont rolls
up handsome majority in September
that win presage the election of Har-
rison and Reid in November. ."-Sena-

The Cause OF the Earthquakes.

Professor George Davidson, of the
United States Geodetic Survey. who has
made special study of earthquakes on
the Pacific coast. SAYS of the shakes which
have done so much damage:
The consensus Of judgment among ply
sicians Is that the earthquakes result from
shrinking of the surface of the earth and
from the ceaseless dissipation of its heat
into the cold of space. As this loss of heat
progresses, strains are lnauguratei
throughout the surface of the earth, and
on account of that surface being OF I'M
equal strength there arrives moment
when breaking of part Of the surface
takes place along the weakest parts.
Every miner is familiar with faults p"
which he encounters in the line of his
drifts. Rarely can he tell whether the con-
tinuation of his vein Is above or below him
when he comes to bare wall at the abrupt
end OF his vein.
Along this coast lines of rupture of weak
parts Of the earths crust are shown in the
depression of the plateau of the Pacific
Ocean bed and the parallelism of at least
four lines of the Sierra Nevada and Cascade
ranges, and these lines and the closely ad-
iacent country must be the seat of seis-
mic changes as each gradually loses its
heat.
We have evidence clearly before US that
along the rupture of these ranges there
have been many overhows of lava, FORM
ing basaltic layers visible in the Sierra
Nevada in certain localities. and especially
in many outfows along the northern part
of the Cascade range. The dynamical
theory accounts for these exhibitions, and
it is easy TO imagine there must have been
many other exhibitions of electrical and
volcanic forces.
In the great chain of the Aleutian
Islands, where so many extinct and active
volcanoes exist. every earthquake along
this weak line in the earth's surface is ac-
companied by renewed activity in the
living volcanoes and 1t may be safely as
sumed that all the phenomena may be
traced to contraction and rupture OF some
part of the surface or crust from the
ceaseless but slow cooling of our planet.

PENNIES ARE UNLUCkY.
And So Superstitious People Throw Them
Away to Avoid a HoOdOO.
lChicago Tribune.l

Have you ever picked up penny on the
street? IL so you probably have not
stopped a minute to think how the copper
coin came to be lying there. 1t probably
never entered your mind that the former
owner of that penny threw 1t away pur-
posely. Your natural conclusion after
finding the coin was that some one had &C
cidentally dropped 1T.
1t is a tact that Chicago has many men
whose superstition takes the form OF re
eardng the possession OF copper coins as
unlucky. These men will never keep
copper in their pockets if they can help
themselves. for which newsboys are pro-
foundly grateful. Should stray penny
find its way intothe clothes of these super
stitious creatures it is quickly lung away
with a sign Of reilef-and as quickly picked
M unless invisible to the Chicago eyes.
This habit is common among politicians.
speculators, gamblers of the ordinary kind,
actors. and some businessmen who would
ra !her loose a good dinner than be among
thirteen at the table. These men, who
look upon the despised copper as a
"hoodoo.v are the same men who
carry the left hind-foot OF rab--
bit. q horse-chestnut, or other supposed
charm In their vest-pocket to ward OF the
evil genius known as bad luck. Some OF
these cranks go so far as to keep pennies
out Of their homes. and as long as the chill
dren get their probationary IN more val
liable metal there is no objection TO the
boycott On copper. There are men In the
City Hall and the county building VINO
honestly think they would be beaten at
the polls or lose their job If penny got
int N their pOckets.
