JOHNSON CONFIDENT.
The North Daksta Statesman
Thinks His Seat Secure.

If Congressman M. N. Johnson, of
North Dakota, is candidate for Sena-
tor Casey's seat in the senate he will
have to run his campaign from Wash
ington. as things will be pretty we'll set
tied before he gets back at the Christ
mas recess. Mr.. johnson has never for
given the ''old gang" for the trick by
which he was defeated for the Repnb-
lican caucus nomination at the time Mr..
Casey was elected, and probably never
will. This time he goes to Washington
with contest On his bands for seat in
the lower house, and is almost the only
Republican candidate who came near
an election on the state tisket this year.
''l have no doubt as to the result o
the contest" said Mr.. johnson, even
with Democratic house."
And the North Dakotan looked as
though he believed what he said. A
Democrat could not say this uuder the

The average plurality for Republican

varies so considerably i'll the incomplete

Posi- MILLS, April Is, 1892
HIRAM ATKINS: Dear Str.-In replying
to your editorial comments in the Argus of
April IL, it is hardly necessary to state the
letter referred to was not under the circum-
stances private and confidential, otherwise
it would not have been published. 1t was
received only a short time after we had
held personal interview which ended with
the understanding that | should, by every
honorable means, oppose you in the cam
paign for the election of delegates to the
state convention. Therefore you knew my
purpose, and had no reason for believing
that such communication would be treat
ed contidentially, and especially as it touch
ed on subject of general interest to the
party and upon which you had failed to
throw the light that seemed necessary in a
man who had been, and still aspres to be,
the leader of the democracy of Vermont.
The tone of your comments is in keeping
with your usual course when discussing
with political opponent A gentlemanly
disposition toward those who, from any
cause, fall to eSpouSe your views, is not to
be expected; for somehow it is foreign to
your nature, no matter who the man may
be- when he engages in controversy which
may have bearing on your political SUI
premacy to discuss fairly. You seem al
ways and with an instinct made perfect by
long indulgence, to overlook any consider
atiOnS demanded by circumstance or sub |
ject, and descend to purely personal mat
tiers. SO that it is not surprising that you
ignore the substance of my letter and at
tempt to arouse prejudice by calling atten- |
ton to a matter settled nearly thirty years
ago. 1t is true that [ was member of the |
Confederate army, but when the war was
ended | accepted the result in good faith |

States, and have since loyalty and faithful |
ly supported her institutions. | have min |
gled with the boys who wore the blue, both |

reminded that they entertained toward me
any but feelings of respect, while many of

faced them at the front were feared less,
md honored more, than those who fired
rom the rear. Yours truly,

The GoyernorShip.

We believe that the general feeling
of the rank and file as well as the par
ty leaders of this County is for Hon
Levi K Fuller of Brattleboro for gov
ernor. Since the withdrawal of Col
Fairbanks the sentiment all over the
State, 50 far as we have been able to
learn, has been strongly in Fuller's ia
vor. The republicans of Vermont
will not consent to have the non-pro-
motion rule given over, and allow
Lieut.. Gov. Fletcher to gain the gov
ernorship. This would be too fragrant
an atfront to the friends of the gallant
Col. Woodbury. who made more ag-
gressive fight on an unpopular side
and came nearer winning than any
other man in Vermont could have
done. Hon. V. L. Spear of our own
County is spoken of in most favOra-
BILE and respectful manner by many
papers as a fit man for the position.
We take pride in the fact that we have
SuCn ludu Ill our ulluSU WHO WOulu
fill the position most creditably, but
we object to having him put forward
at this late day by the opponents of
Col. Fuller simply for the purpose of
destroying that geDtleman's strength
by running popular son of Orange
County against him without even re-
mote prospect of Mr.. Spear being sue
cessful in anything except comprising
Fuller's defeat for the nomination.
At such time as our County can send |
a united delegation for Mr.. Spear or
any one of its eminent citizens, then |
we will espouse his cause, but at this
time, when almost everybody have
made up their minds as to who they
wish to have nominated, it does not
seem wise to bring out new candidate
from our own County to be slaughter
ed in the convention.
