Farmer Politics in Vermont.


Vermont is going to have a real
live working farmer for Governor in
1892. Just which of her many wor-
thy sons of the soil will be called to
fill this high Office, the convention to
be held at Burlington, June %, will
decide
The descendants of old Ethan Allen
are about to emphasize again the
fact that "The gods of the valleys
are not the gods of the hills" The
gods of the valleys, in other words,
the professional politicians who have
heretofore arranged the matter of
candidates without consulting the
wishes of the majority of the voters,
are running Levi X. Fuller of Brattle-
boro, on the ground that he would
make good appearance at the
worlds fair, that his figure and bear
ing are such that in military dress
surrounded by his staff officers, he
would make striking appearance at
Chicago, that he is the head of large
manufacturing esta blishment. and
would well represent the manufacture
ing interests of the State, etc.
All this is admitted by the goods
of the hills" but they contend that
Vermont is an agricultural State first
and foremost, her butter, maple sug-
ar, horses and sheep have a wider
and more lasting fame than her or
gans, that Vermont is not posing as
a military power and that our pres
ent position does not demand dress
parade Governor so much as it does
a practical, everyday, commonsense,
working sort of a Governor that
where seven-tenths of the voters are
farmers, a Governor from that call
ing would be eminently proper atany
time, and especially so at this time
when agriculture is coming to the
front all along the line They argue
that the State will have enough to Do
at the Worlds Fair to present all 9sae
varied industries on an equal footing
without giving undue prominence to
one single line of manufacture and
that Indigenous to her soil.
The farmers of the State say in the
interests of agricultural development,
at this time they must have COVER
nor whose life has been one of daily
contact with the hard, cold facts
which go to make up the existence of
the average Vermont farmer. And
whether his name be Victor l. Spear,
or Henry A. Fletcher or William
Chaplin, he will have their united sup
port. The farmers league will soon
hold a series of mass meetings about
the State, and farmers, generally, are
confident of ss.-New England

The general conference of the
Methodist Episcopal church, now in
session at Omaha, is a most impos-
ing and representative ecclesiastical
body. 1t is composed of ministerial
and lay delegates. The proceedings
of these Methodist quadrennial con-
ferences are always of intense inter
est, both because of the Importance
of subjects considered and the ability
with which they are discussed.
Methodist preachers, as a rule, are
trained de6aters, and the polemical
struggles which call forth the best
parliamentary and dialectic skill, as
well as the frequent display of the
finest specimens of impassioned elo-
quence, afford to the younger minis
tiers of the church the source of a lib
eral education in all the requisites Of
proficiency in their profession. The
present conference will report the
enormous sum of 81, 81, O4S raised
during the last quadrennial period
for the cause of foreign missions, an
unprecedented amount, Indicating
that, whatever changes of spirit and
method may have transpired among
the Methodist hosts, they still retain
the original missionary inspiration
of the famous founder, 1.-The world
is my parish"

John Agnew, one of the victims of
the Johnstown flood, has just dis
covered his wife and three children.
He was at work in the Cambria iron
works and mis- family lived just below
the town when the flood came. The
latter were rendered homeless, while
the husband and father could not be
heard from and was given up as lost.
The mother and children were cared
for by kind people till she was sent
for by friends in Tennessee. There she
has since lived, caring for her children
and grieving for her husband. Mr..
Agnew was carried down by the flood
and picked up unconscious, On re-
covering his reason he inquired for
his family, but the story of his sup
posed loss was all that came to him.
He continued his search, and q few
days ago his wife received letter
which gave her SO much JOY that she
could not read it through. Her hus-
band was alive and was coming to
her. He is now with his family in
Tennessee. 1t will be two years on
the 31st inst. since JohnstOwn was
destroyed.

A Protective Tariff the Best for Rev
enuG.

enue.
When the Republican party came
into power in 1861 it found a reve-
nue. system totally inadequate to
the ordinary expenses OF the Gov
eminent. Mr.. Buchanan's admins
tration had expended about $780,
100000 more than it's receipts To
repair this inadequate system, as
well as to provide as far as possible
for the extraordinary expenditures
of war, a new tariff was framed and
on protective lines. Many changes
have been made since then, first to
force up the revenue to the highest
available point, and then after the
war was over to reduce the levies as
fast as the exigencies of the Treasury
would allow. And the success of
these financial measures is now a
matter of history. The world was
astonishhed at the magnitude of our
income, at the rapid payment of the
war debt, at the immense reductions
of our tax schedules, at the appre-
citation of our credit, at the accumu-
lation of specie in the National
Treasury. Without going into par
ticulars, it will suffice to say that no
nation in all the worlds history can
present a financial record at all COM
parable with ours. The one fact to
be impressed upon you is, that in
every change in our revenue laws
made by the Republican party,
whether to increase or reduce the
revenue, the tariff was always adjust
ed on protection lines; and every
such adjustment has been eminently
successful as a financial measure.
Our latest tariff-the Mckinley bill
is eminently a protective tariff.
While it's free list has been extended
beyond any former presidents, it's
protective duties have had strict
reference to competitive imports,
and to the higher scale of wages and
of living in the United States, COM
pared with other countries. Against
this policy the Democratic party is
now making it's fight.

Press Comments on the Governor
Question.
[From the Hardwick Gazette. ]

rum lIe 1aFuWlck UdZeJCe.
1t may be well at this time to re-
peat a question in substance as fol
lows: Will the Republicans of YER
mont prefer as a candidate for Gov
ernor man with a frequent and dis
astrous silly-side," sham veteran,
a vain-glorious pretender, a curb
stone operator in political honors,
or a clean, well-balanced, honorable
man of the people like Victor Spear?
1t is critical decision for the future
of the party.
from the Essex County Herald.
1t has become evident that the
name of Col. Levi X. Fuller is fore
most in the minds of the people OF
our section for Governor. Recently
no other name has been mentioned
in this part of the state. Our people
have become assured of his ire
proachable character, his ability and
general fitness for the office, and a
general impression prevails that he
will be unanimously nominated.
With Col. Fuller in that position our
friends feel that we shall have a state
administration that they can look
back upon with pride and satisfac-
ton.
