WEST ARLINGTON.

For the past few weeks, hearts have
felt deep sympathy for the family of H.
G. Buck, as day by day, they have seen
the patient suffering of Nina. Our
friend had firm faith that she was soon
to reach a fairer home where she should
meet her sister in the presence of Christ,
so when she passed to rest, Thursday
afternoon, April Goth, we could but re-
joice, with her, knowing that our loss
was her gain. Nina was one of loving,
retiring disposition which endeared her
to the hearts of those with whom she
was intimately associated. Though only
twenty years old, for number of years
she had been a member of the Congre-
gational church in East Arlington, and
since the organization of the Christian
Endeavor Society in this place, she has
been one of its active members. The
funeral on the following Sunday was
largely attended, and was conducted by
her pastor, the hev. Mr.. Field. Kind
friends brought many beautiful flowers
among which were a horseshoe of white
blossoms with 'Mina" made in yiolets,
and the monogram &C. E." in white
hyacinths. The casket was tenderly
borne to its last resting place by four Of
her young friends. A NEIeHBoR.

State Senator.

The indications are that there will be
no lack of Senatorial timber in the South
Shire of this County this year. The
friends of Tyler Goodell of Readsboro
have already put him forward, and A. B.
Gardner of Pownal has, also, been favor
ably mentioned. Readsboro points to
the fact that that town has had no sena-
tor since 1876, while Bennington has had
in the pastfourteen years Messrs. Thatch-
er (deceased), Carney, Valentine, Abbott;
Shattsbury, W. P. Mattison, and Stam-
ford has the present incumbent. Pownal,
in the seventies and also in 1884 had the
Senator, but these are the only ones in a
very long period, some say 35 years, and
so 1T claims the people of that town
should be recognized this year. Both of
these gentlemen are well-known to our
people, and, if chosen, would make ac-
ceptable Senators. Much can be said in
favor of the arguments put forth by the
friends of Messrs. Gardner and Goodell,
and no doubt some these will be publish
ed as the campaign opens.

Town Representative.

The Reformer last week, evidently in
spired by some one behind its editor,
sprang boomerang, or what was intend
ed to be such, upon this community in
the matter of candidate for town repre-
sentative this fall. According to the
writer of the Reformer article, Col. M. S.
Colburn is engineering the candidacy of
Gen. J. G.. Mccullough, and the usual
remarks about foreign interference in
Bennington affairs was indulged in, the
''ear marks of the real author being SO
apparent as to deceive no one. The truth
of the matter is that the Reformer's SEN
sation is all moonshine. On the part of
Col. Colburn, he says there is no truth
in the statement He has not said one
word about Gen. McCullough's candida
cy, has not thought of it, and the whole
affair in the Reformer is figment of the
imagination of its author. We are of the
opinion that this boomerang will 90 home
to roost, and it will not be to the discred-
it of Gen. Mccullough either.

White HOUSE oonferences have been

White House conferences have been
numerous of late, and the result is an an
nouncement that concessions will be
made to the Northern Democracy that
will force the Tariff through the Senate
at an early date. The exact nature of the
concession has not been made public.
The policy of helplessness, of the past
few weeks, has made the managers of the
tariff bill the target of an unbearable
amount of biting sarcasm and ridicule
from Senators Aldrich, Hale and other
Senators, which has compelled partial
surrender to the element represented by
Hill, Murphy, Smith and German, in Or
der that something may be done. The
concessions granted are somewhat of a
minor Importance, when compared with
the ruinous features of the whole bill.
The income tax is to be retained though
in modified form. Duties on iron and
steel products are to be changed from ad-
yalorem to specific, but on textile goods,
New England's leading products, and on
which there is the greatest opportunities
for fraud and undervaluation at the Gus
tom House, the intention is to levy ad-
Valorem duties as provided in the origi-
nal bill. The northern workingman can
yet see no light except in the death of the
Wilson bill. Even with the proposed
changes the ''rebel yell" can almost be
heard issuing from every line of the BILL
so strongly partizan is its nature.

Now We know what orders were

even in the face of the fact that the
Hawaiian question had been touch.

reference to the Presidents mes

fact that Willis had reported the
existence upon the Hawaiian Isl

existed by Paramount" Commits

the Administration confessedly
based its policy of restoration. 1t

failed-or at least it is to be hoped
that it failed. If it has not. Ameri-
