THE WHEREFORE OF IT.

The Rutland Herald finds in the New
York Tribune an editorial paragraph
praising the administration of Hon. Car
roll S. Page as governor of Vermont and
telling something about his prowess as a
business man; and the esteemed con-
temporary is greatly pnzzled thereat
asking:
The thing is mysterious. Such things
do not get into newspapers of cOnse-
quence by accident-the editor who lei
such paragraph about ex-Gov. Page OF
anybody else ego by" without the direc.
tion of the chief in the Tribune or any
other well regulated office would lose
its head straightway. Mr.. Page is n
very keen and active politician. How
did that paragraph get into the Tribune
and what does 1t mean?
Apparently the Herald has not heard
that sundry "keen and active" politl.
clans are in training for Senator Nor
rills place when in the course of hu.
man events it shall become vacant. If
it had, it might have dim notion OF
what the Tribune editorial means, as
also of the remarkable Washington items
which occasionally appear in the Bur-
lington Free Press, the evident design
of which is to make clear to the people
of the State that Congressman Grout
is a great legislator and valuable adj
wiser of President Harrison.
