The Democracy of Vermont appar.

The Democracy of Vermont appaf-
entity do not intend that their
brethren in New York shall monopo-
lie all the dissentions. The State
committee met at Montpelier last
Thursday and decided to elect dele
gates to the national convention,
and also it's state and district con-
ventions, at Montpelier May 9Th.
Part of the committee wanted the
gathering to be held at White River
Junction, and others at Rutland.
Atkins, however, carried the day By
two majority. The members of the
committee from Chittenden, Rutland
and Windham would not sign the
call, so it will go out with simply the
names of the chairman and secretary
thereon. We do not understand that
the minority will not abide by the
decision, but we do understand that
there is a strong desire on the part
of the younger element to get out
from under the control of Hiram.
who they say has managed things
long enough. Mr. Atkins has a large
following throughout the state, and
we predict the young fellows will find
that he is so well intrenched in the
party control that not only will they
be unable to GUST him, but they will
at the proper time do just about
what he says. Hiram is no spring
chicken in political tactics.

spoken. A letter to him from Gen.
Bragg, of Wisconsin, asking him to
state his position in reference to the
Presidential nomination, has elected
reply from him. Mr.. Cleveland
states that "his conception of the
nature of the Presidential office "
precludes the possibility of his "lead-
ing and pushing a self-seeking can
vass for the Presidential nominal
tion." This has a two-fold meaning
-one that he does not approve of
Hills method of working for the
nomination and that he (Grover)
is ready to accept the nomination.
