There is more Catarrh in this section
of the country than all other diseases put
together, and until the last few years
was supposed to be incurable. For
great many years doctors pronounced it
a local disease, and prescribed local rem
edies, and by constantly failing to cure
with local treatment, pronounced it in
durable. Science has proven catarrh to
be a constitutional disease and therefore
requires constitutional treatment.
Halls Catarrh, manufactured by F. j.
Cheney & Co., Toledo, Ohio, is the only
constitutional cure in the market. It is
taken internally in doses from 10 drops
to a teaspoonful. 1t acts directly on the
bloodand mucous surfaces of the system.
They offer one hundred dollars for any
case it fails to cure. Send for circulars
and testimonials. Address.

Col. nansur is the Coming Man.

We publish elsewhere IN this
issue a number of extracts from
the leading papers of the State
endorsing Col. Mansur for Lieu
tenant-Governor. These extracts
come from all parts of the State
and. with those previously pub
lished in the HERALD, they show
a marked degree of spontaneity
in his favor that is very crafty
ing. With such strong endorse
mcnts we do not imagine there
will be any great contest IN the
convention for the second place
on the State ticket, for we pc
lieve that the convention will be
as favorably impressed with the
merits of the man as his friends
who know him best are. Col.
Mansur has every qualification
that talent and education can
furnish, and no one will be disap-
pointed by the manner in which
he will perform the duties of the
Office.

personal acquaintance with that gentle
man. We have sufficient confidence IN the
Judgment of friends vino know him well
to sccept their endorsement OF his fitness
for the place. and TO wish him the clear
est of running.
The old vexed question of Succession"
is, we believe, numbered with the things
that were. And there can be no signif-
canoe in reiterating now what we have
before stated as one OF the articles OF our
creed, l. c. that an election To the lieuten-
ant -governorship should be neither
premium nor a handicap upon any man 5
later possible ambitions. The influence
of one success should be nil so tar as APP
piled to attempts for subsequent one
and. in short. we regard an ex-governor
or rx-lieutcnant as Just as good citizen
as auv other man II he behaves hinsel
as well
1t is fitting at this time that Vermont
called to her places of honor two men
who carry empty sleeves. that she cut
her whole ticket out OF blue cloth. At the
risk of offending those timid souls who
raise ewes and hands when any reference
is made to past history. we remark That
at time when northern interests are
sacrificed and Slashed by southern direc-
ton, and when recollection of past ser
vice has seemed TO grow cold in the high
places OF national power, it is fitting that
Vermont Republicans show 10 the south
and to the west that she has not forgot
ten, and that in these DAYS of marvel
lous and protractcd national reform"
she puts on guard we hope by the
biggest majority in her history two

Mr.. Mansur was early to volunteer in
1861, and one of the first to leave an
arm on Virginia soil fighting for the per-
petuity Of the Union. Vermont had no
Drawer soldier in the late war than Col.
Mansur. He has been department Com
mander of the G. A. K. for the department
of Vermont, represented his town and
county in both branches of the State
Legislature, is n good lawyer and sue
cessful business man, and would make a
model Lieutenant Governor. Essex
County has not been honored with an
Office of this nature for about thirty years,
and it would seem fitting thing to rec
ognize her claim at this time Woodbury.

EST. Adams Messenger

Taking all things into consideration,
the question Of availability as well as of
qualification, the Messenger is of the opin-
ion that the selection of Col. z. NJ. Man
sur, of Island Pond will be for the best in
terests of the party. and will bring the
greater strength to the Republican ticket,
and urges his nomination. =.
Because of it's conviction that the quail
fcations of Col. Mansur are equal to
those of any Of the gentlemen who will
be prominently before the convention,
and that his candidacy possesses some
elements of strength beyond those oil
others, and because of his loyal devotion
to the state both as soldier and a citi.
zen, the Messenger very gladly renders
whatever aid it may to the nomination
OF q. M. Mansur for the Lieutenant
Governorship.

(Poultney JournalO

Early in the canvass for lieutenant gov
ernor, the Journal, through an esteemed
correspondent, brought forward the
name of Col. Z NJ. Mansur of Island
Pond for that honorable place. The
colonel was totally unaware at that
time that his name was even dreamed of
in connection with the Office. SO tavora-
bly, was his name received in all parts of
the state, and so many requests came
from all sections, that Col. Mansur en-
tered the field as an active candidate for
the Office. His canvass has been modcstly
and quietly conducted He has not posed
as farmers" candidate, an especial
friend of the working man." or any OF
these demagOgic devices. He has pre-
sented himself as a man and n plain
American citizen.
Some have tried to injure his canvass
by claiming that he was pushing himself
on his record as a soldier. Although that
record was a grand one, Col. Mansur
does not inject it into the canvass. He
does not deny that he was n soldier, hut
at the same time he does not seek the
Office on that issue, nor attempt as some
say, to work the soldier racket" 1t
certainly ought not to operate to man S
prejudice before Vermonters. that, in the
time of our greatest national peril he was
found bravely defending his country S
cause.
We want good, grand, honorable
man in the presiding chair of the senate
and no better selection could be made
than to nominate Col. Z. NJ. Mansur.

Out of the multiplicity OF candidates

coming evident that the choice otthe peo-
pie of the east side OF the state will settle
upon Hon T. NJ. Mansur of Brighton as
the man to receive the honor. Such Il

Col. Mansur is 4 man OF such sterling
and attractive personal qualities and
high character as commend him to all
who know him. He has good record
in both public and private life. He was
a member of the House i'll 1886 and of

There seems to have been a noticeable
falling out of the ranks of candidates for
the lieutenant-governorship within the
past few weeks. There is one candidate,
however, who appears to be going steadily
forward in public favor. We refer to
Hon. .. NJ. Mansur of Island Pond He
represents no single class or special inter
ests, but rather lie represents the people
and their interests as whole. Heis well
known as brainy, level headed and hon

he occupy place on the republican state
ticket. We believe that Mr.. Mansur will
receive the support of a very large por-
ton of the republicans of Orleans county.

No matter what the emergency or cri-
sis, Ncrmonters have never lacked 10y
atty or patriotism. They have ever been
first i'll the fray and could always be
found where the fight was hottest There
during one Of the most critical periods in
the nations history were found the two
Vermont soldiers who today carry evil
dence Of their bravery in their empty
sleeves, Coils. Woodbury. and Mansur.
Though slow, perhaps, to recognize
worth and merit, the people Of the state
are not ungrateful. and they propose at
the convention to he held at Montpelier,
June 20. to show the world the honor in
which they hold their empty sleeves by
elevating their owners to the highest

DECORATION DAY.

Next Wednesday we pay our
homage to the heroism of the
brave, and by the same act re-
joice in an era of peace through
out the length and breadth of
our land, finding cause for thank
fitness that over the broad fields
where the contest ragged the
fiercest success has crowned the
efforts to repair the waste and
destruction left in the wake of
war.
1t is evident that the senti-
ment connected with Decoration
Day grows with time. The feel
ing aroused today is stronger
than that of ten years ago. This
is both natural and right. 1t is
natural because the romance
connected with any great event
gathers as the event rccedes.
When the memory of incidents
becomes dim the fancy acts all
the more powerfully. Whatever
the soldier may forget is more
than made up in enthusiasm. 1t
is among the greatest compensa-
tions for all suffering that we de-
rive the greatest pleasure in re-
calling passages in our history,
which, when we were going
through them brought mex
pressible pain. Everything that
made army life so terrible as a
matter of experience is softened
in the retrospect. The forced
marches, the hunger and thirst,
the exposure to storms, and,
added to all else, the perils OF
battle, these things become
proverbially the subjects of the
most delightful and thrilling
stories. Nature not only heals
the hurt but she swectenS the
memory Oft The salve she ap-
plies transfgures the wound.
Thus the veterans who will be in
line next Wednesday, besides the
horrors and the fame of war, will
have their minds peopled with a
class of images that perpetually
fill them with delight. And more.
over it is right that this kind OF
sentiment should grow. The
narratives. of the war cannot be
too numerous. There is no need
of their nourishing the bitterness
of the conflict. They will do just
the other thing. The comrade.
ship of the North and South is
promoted by the old soldiers
hearing speeches and reading
books about the war. Nothing
will more completely extract the
sting of sectional animOSity than
the common memories of the sol
diers on both sides. Let orators
thrill us and poets enchant us
With every such emotion there
will be less hatred. The hearts
of the people will be welded to
gether through the bravery o.
their respective heroes until w,
shall forget everything else thar
the glow of universal patriot
ism.
