AN oMINoUS OUTLOOK,

It might be we'll to suggest to the
Toledo Blade and the Cincinnati Times
Star that in the interest of the Repub-
licau party in this State, they cease
their hair pulling matches. The COM
ing campaign in Ohio is to be no lawn
tennis match for the Republicans and
the united aid of the alleged Sherman
and Foraker organs will be needed in
the coming campaign.-Oh State
Journal.
The Journal is right. 1t will take all
the aids the g. o. p. can muster this year
to get Mckinley anywhere near
majority. Some of the more
sagacious men in the party think Nc
Kinley will be at least 10000 short of a
majority, but even a thousand will do
the business. The deep trouble is not
in the hair pulling matches, now on,
but in the odiousness of the recently
departed legislature and the remark
able list of scandals, escapades, prison
escapes, irrepresentable infants
of insane asylums, liaisons of
penitentiary chaplains, aud wicked
extravaganza and general ab-
sence in the executive Office.
There is not one hopeful sign for
the g. o. p. of Ohio this year, even
with the Major at the head of the pro-
cession and all the tin plate mills in
full blast.

Too Many Captains in Command.
WOOSTER, May "A. bitter fight is on
here between the two rival factions In the
Democratic party, II opens up the old
fight between the two factions, the one
headed by Hon. L. p. Ohliger and Hon.
K. B. Eshelman, and known as the "Zim-
Inerman" faction, the other led by John
Il. Marchand and j. s. Adair, known as
the "Jscksonian crowd" and composed
OF the younger element of the party. II
10 charged that Marchand and Adair are
anxious to pose az the political bosses of
the county, and are actuated by motives
Of jealousy because of Ohliger,s success
In handling the party In Wayne county,
and because OhliRer 10 not favorable to
Marchand's candidacy for the Wooster
postofflce.
1t is ali about the method of calling the
county convention. The Marchand fac
tion want an election under the Barber
law. while Ohliger has issued q call, as
chairman, under the delegate system,
with county convention. Those In favor
OF the Barber law announce their inten-
ton OF securing an Injunction to restrain
Chairman Ohliger from issuing a cali for
the primaries. Unless the breach is
healed the party Is in danger of defeat In
the county.

THE FASHION OF AMPLE SHOULDERS

From the Saturday Review.
Woman has come to unanimous con-
clusions about her waist-that she likes
it small; about her foot-that she likes
it slender, and of these she gives proof
daily. But whether shoulders ought to
be broad or small, square or sloping,
she probably has made up her mind but
will not tell. But insensibly or sud.
denly, as her mood may be, she reverts
and the reversion is so generally to
broad shoulders that we begin to sus-
spect that physiology and the conven-
tional sculptor will be beaten at last,
and that woman's secret opinion really
is that her shoulders are her greatest
breadth. Inasmuch as the contem-
porary and European woman is of the
shape of her dress, the making of her
sleeves decides everything And just
now, upholstered in her green velvet,
she is having her will to perfection and
giving US reason to believe that height,
grace, slenderness, general outline, all
are nothing to the feminine mind COM
pared with the triumph Of ample
shoulders.

Held EOR ASSAULT.

Henry Forkay of Addison was arraign-
ed before Justice Roberts at Vergennes,
Wednesday evening, charged with as
sault with dangerous weapon on Frank
Tucker of the same town on the night of
Feb. l. last
1t appeared that on the date in question
there was "A dance at Addison, and that
at the lntermission, about midnight,
these men went into Lee Tracys store,
after some friendly wrestling outside,
and there got INTO fight, in which
Tucker used a chair as weapon and
Forkay the iron stove shaker. When
they were separated it was found that
Tucker had three scalp wounds made by
the shaker.
Forkay was held for trial in $500 bail,
which he furnished. States Attorney
Fish appeared for the prosecution and
w. II. Bliss, Esq, of Middlebury for the
respondent.

SuPREMe COURT DECISIONS,

The supreme court has handed down
decisions in two Addison county cases of
local interest. One is that of Charles
DanO ct AL vs.. George c. Sessions. which
has been before the supreme court twice.
1t was an action for fraud in misrepre-
senting the number of acres in piece of
mountain land which Dano and another
bought of the defendant Sessions. At the
last trial in the county court the judg-
ment was for the plaintiffs, which judg-
ment the supreme court aflirms. Stew
art & Wilds were counsel for the plain
tifis and Mr.. Bliss was the defendants
lawyer.
The other is that of NJ. \. Munroe vs..
II. c. Potter ct al, which was tried at
the last December term of the county
court. The judgment of the court was
that the plaintiff recover the amount of
the Judgment that formed the basis of the
action and the interest, the whole
amounting to about $1,000. The defense
was the statute of limitations. The su-
preme court aflrms the judgment of the
county court. Messrs. Bliss and Hasel
ton were Mr.. Munroe's lawyers, and
Hon. f. r. Hard of Burlington and Judge
Slade appeared for the defense.

And so 1t appears that the martial hosts
of Vermont are not to have chance to
visit Chicago in body, as had been pro-
posed. Gov. Fuller says complications
of what sort he doesn't specify--have
arisen that will prevent the contemplated
muster there. Can 1t be that the drink
problem proved insoluble? 1t will be re-
membertd that at gathering of the Off
GERS of the national guard at Rutland in
the early winter the trip was talked over
and the matter of suitable drink for the
troops discussed. The chaplain of the
regiment recommended beer. We had
supposed that point was settled, and that
the braves would qnench their thirst and
sOlace their souls with the famed Mil
waullee lager or IA similar brew, and thus
escape the bacilli and other wild beasts
that are popularity believed to roam in
the water of Chicago.

BOSH AND NONSENSE.

When Vermont Will offer the same in
ducement to her young men to stay at
home that her sister States do for them
to emigrate, the question will be solved.
Every man will be glad to disprOve the
maxim and become a prophet with honor
in his own country. When Vermont S
ambitious young men are assured that,
as they prove themselves worthy, they
may in turn become Judges, town rep
resentatves, State senators, State officers,
governors and all, right here at home,
without going to the West, they will be
certain TO improve the opportunity. 1t
is needless to defend the proposition that
competition begets excellence, but
where. as in this State, there is little or
no chance for general competition, we
must put up with such mediocre public
service as befalls us.-[St. Albans Mes
senger.
More arrant nonsense than the above
could hardly be written. No young
man whose staying or going would be
of the slightest consequence to Vermont
goes away because he thinks he can
not be town representative or IA gov
ernor; he goes because he imagines his
chances for making dollar will be bet
ter out of Vermont than in it.
And 1t i'll becomes the Messenger to
talk about the ''mediocre public SER
vice" that befalls us, when it is and
long has been the organ of ring that
has done more than all other forces COM
bined to debauch the public service of
the State. How about the last choice of
governor; didn't the Messenger, which
had been bowling for farmer candidate,
turn all its guns against everybody ex-
cept Mr.. Fuller because it found that
Mr.. Fuller was going to win and it want
ed to be on the winning side in order
that its home candidate for the second
place on the ticket might win also?
This is modern history only. If one
were to look into the antiquities of State
affairs, many more facts pertinent to the
question might be adduced. Who are the
mediocre" public servants about whom
the Messenger talks, anyhow? The
lieutenant governor, or who?
