The Vermont watchman. [volume] (Montpelier, Vt.) 1883-1911, 1894-08-08

THE republicans of Washington
county have named their candidates for
county officers. Political nominating
conventions are rarely love-feasts and
rarely satisfy everybody. Amid null
titude of candidates or aspirants, there
must necessarily be some dsappoint-
ments. Many may be called, but the
number chosen is fixed by the laws
iron limitations. Disappointment will
be cheerfully borne by the unsuccessful
candidates and their friends. There is
future for the survivors, and, in the
chances of the next election, discon-
tent-if there is any-will find an ade-
quate safety valve. But we believe
there is no discomfort. Good-nature
prevails, and the ticket nominated on
Thursday of last week will have the
votes of all the republicans of Wash
ington county. The day of election is
not far distant. Prepare, republicans
of Washington, for grand rally at the
polls on the first Tuesday of September.

The Minneapolis Tribune says
of the late George W. Childs:
Gas a wealth accumulation, sue
cessful newspaper man, an eminent
editor, and great philanthropist
combined, George, W. Childs is
therefore one of the phenomenal
products of our civilization. He
had a rare combination of faculties
which drew all men unto him and
made them forever his friends and
if need be his willing slaves. Big.
ness Of heart was his predominant
ing faculty. There was nothing
small about the man in thought,
emotion, plans, acts or dealings,
He inspired the perfect confidence
Of acquaintance, employees and
patrons. Men had faith in him
and loved him, because he had
faith in men and loved them. HI
labored as a man to whom money
was a secondary aim; but the sue
cess of his work was such, the re-
suits were so beneficial to his fel
lowmen that wealth was added unto
him in sums sufficient to satisfy
the most grasping ambition. Thu
work of George w. Childs stands
an inspiration to his race, as dur

The Corn Laws.

One OF the most famous political struggles in
Great Brttaia was that which eliminated about
1886 in the repeal Of what were known as the
corn laws. Briefly, these we're enactments affec
ting the Importation and ex pOrtatien OF grain
When the landed inter est first became important
several hundred years ago. the proprietors con-
ceive6 It would be to their advantage to restrict
the marketiOr grain within the narrowest limits.
Accordingly, for many years not only was no
export Of grain allowed to European countries
but 1t was a crime to carry the product OF one
county to another for another for sale. AS a
consequence, partly of tins restriction, and
partly because the only means of Transports
ton was by animal power, grain was so high In
one part Of England that people starved, while
In another county 1t was so low as to be al.
most ytlueiess. When the restriction on do
nestle commerce was removed, the landlords
were favored by the prohibition ofimportation.
Az the population of the towns increased. grain
became extortionately high, until until It was q
q question Of flower price or death. The corn laws
went down. In the United States, 80 well have
means Of transportation kept pace with extern
ton of agriculture, that the surplus of one sec
ton could be at once transported to the re-

Comic Valentines.

Always about this time of year we
see the counters of various stores
strewn with hideous pictures, I'm.
der which are verses explaining
the picture and sometimes great
deal more. These are called comic
valentines, but where the comical
part Of it comes in is not generally
apparent to the one who receives
it, especially if it depicts some Of
his weaknesses. We all have a
weakness Of some kind, and gener-
ally the party who wishes to re-
mind us Of it can select something
to suit our case from the assort-
ment usually displayed. It is
sometimes done in the spirit Of
fun but as the party who sends it
usually DISCUSSES his writing the
one who receives it often imagines
that it is sent for the express pur-
pose of hurting his feelings and
while he does not know who the
sender is he feels confident that he
has one enemy in the world, and
that enemy's identity is shrouded in
mystery.
One thing which we wish par
ticularly to speak Of at this time is
the sending of comic VALENTINES to
the teachers in the public scho OILS
by their pupils. It is indeed a
fortunate person who has taught
in the public schools of Little
Falls and not received comic val
entine on February IA, and that
sent by pupil, who to pay up the
teacher for some imaginary wrong
done him, took this unmanly and
contemplate method. This has
been going on here for years and
as the children of Little Falls are
no worse than those of other cities
We judge that the same thing is
done in other towns throughout
the country. There does not seen
to be any way of stopping it either
unless the sale of comic valentine;
to children, like that of cigarettes
IS prohibited. 1t should be, too
for while cigarettes and tobacco
are injurious to those using them
comic valentines cause heartburn
and sorrows to the higher class
of public servants, the instructors
in orr public schools.
Now, boys and girls, ifyou have
grudge against your teacher ant
intend to get even by sending {
comic valentine, reconsider tn
matter and don't do it, but g
around to your stationer and buy;
real pretty valentine, which won
cost you any more, write you
name on it it you wish, and SEM
it to your teacher. It will
make her heart lighter, and" surel.
you will feel happier in KNOWN!
that you have been Instruments
in adding to her happiness.
