After you get angry and stop your
paper, just poke your finger into the
water, pull it out and look for the
hole. Then you will know bow sadly
you are missed. A man who thinks
a paper cannot thrive unless it has
his support ought to go off and stay
awhile. When he comes back half his
friends will not know he has gone,
and the other half will not care a
cent, while the world at large kept no
account of his movements. The man
who stops his paper because it is not
run according to his idea is just the
man who will sneak around and read
his neighbours paper on the sly.
The question who shall Hyde Park
; send to Montpelier this fall as its
Representative is already receiving
attention. Among the names we
hear mentioned on the Republican
side are those OF Geo. Mudgett, Col.
Sawyer, G. B. Swift, W. G. Bassett
and H. M. Mcfarland. On the Dem
ocratic side are those nf c. NJ. Davis,
E. L. Noyes, John Gray and Albert
Whitcomb. We have not card much
concerning the "Farmer's." The
: present condition of thecountry may
convince them that the only possible
way of obtaining relief is in support
ing some good Republican; but should
they decide to run man OF their own,
, available material can be found in
Orson Hadley, H. D. W. Doty or
Amos Davis. Of course from now
on candidates will begin to multiply
and before September arrives the list
will undoubtedly be largely increased.
