THEIR TEMPERANCE PLANK.

At their recent State convention
the democrats adopted the following
as the temperance plank of their plat
form:
"We denounce the So called pro-
hibitory laws Of this state, which re-
strict the consumption OF liquor by
temperate people only, and which act
ually promote drunkenness in its
most pernicious forms. During the
40 years that these laws have been in
force the traffic in liquor has con-
stantly increased, and will continue
to do so. Under these laws the traf-
fic is entirely uncontrolled and is a
constant expense to the state, while
under a proper license systemic might
be regulated and it's evils minimized,
and in addition would return a large
revenue, thus diminishing the rate of
taxation. These laws tend to debauch
our courts and their officers by MAX
ing it much less profitable to enforce
them in their spirit than to secretly
connive at their violation and sell
immunity from punishment. Finally
these laws are undermining the re-
spect for law among our people by
familiarizing them with the spectacle
of open, unchecked and unabashed
commission of crimes by persons who
would otherwise be looked upon as
model citizens, ,and Of convicted Grim
inals returning from their terms of
imprisonment to resume their places
in the community respectable and
respected"
How do the respectable democrats
of the state enjoy the ABOVE? Would
they like to change the present sys-
tenn for what is called in the above
"Ghe proper license system?" What
do those whose memory runs
back forty years think of the state
ment that ''the traffic in liquor has
constantly increased?" The whole
plank is so false in it's statements, so
repugnant in its sentiments and so
foolish in it's policy that no one needs
to argue against it. 1t is self destroy
ing.

MAJ. CIRCUITS LETTER.

In answer to a letter addressed to
Maj. Grout June 22d, relative to the
matter referred to below, we received
the following, which was intended for
our last issue, but by provoking mis-
hap did not appear:
Dear BIdEe,-In answer to yours of
the 22d inst, will say that the renom-
ination of the old senators has been
suggested by many prominent men
from different parts of the county but
having considered the proposition,
have decided not to be a candidate,
and I understand Mr.Davison will not
be in the field. I wish to thank all
who so kindly considered me in this
connection, and, also, the republicans
of Orleans county for their generous
support and friendly expressions.
I am as ever, for the success of the
party. Sincerely,
JOSIAH CIRCUIT.

ANOTHER FRUITLESS CONFLICT.

The Pullman strike and the boycott
that soon followed it it's wake have
assumed the proportions Of one Of the
greatest battles between labor and
capital ever waged in this country.
Almost every railroad west of Chica
60 is tied up; 200 men have de-
serted their posts of duty at the COM
mand of the American Railway union;
both freight and passenger traffic on
the great trunk lines are paralyzed;
the business of the country is suffer-
ing loss of hundreds of thousands of
dollars a day. And why? Because
the Pullman Palace Car company cut
down the wages Of the workmen at
it's home shops.
In the present ins tance unusual cir
cumstances exist which make such
demonstration at this time particular
shadowed by the gloom of a business
depression not often paralleled in our
history. The blood moves slowly in
every business vein and artery. Nat
urally enough the Pullman company
were among the first to feel the dele
terious effects Of this unhealthy con-
dition. They were compelled to make
a reduction in the previously liberal
wages they had paid employees in
their shops. The latter promptly
struck, and the American Railway
union seconded their efforts by pro-
mitigating an order that no Pullman
cars should be handled by it's men.
1t is hard to see how the measure
can prove successful, and even if they
do they have only been superficial in
their protest. They have not struck
at the real cause of their ills. That
exists at the Capitol at Washington
in the person of Democratic legisla-
tors whose unWise, unsound, and un-
patriotic action has infected the
country with a wasting disease of
which the present trouble is but a
single though widespread outward
manifestation. The heroic cure for
these ills of the body polite and
economic can only be wisely admin
istered at the ballot box; and there it
will be, upon the first opportunity

Tnat illustrious parsonage, the ex- king
Of Dahomey, whom France has sue
ceeded in corking up in Martinique, is
said to be wearing away, pining for
the freedom of his African wilds. He
can cigarettes, of which he is an in
veterate smoker. AS his royal high
ness led France pretty dance for
long time before he was finally Sc
cured, his chances of regaining his
liberty are very slim, but as the Sc
ductive American cigarette may be
expected to make short work of the
distinguished gentleman, he is not
likely to be a burden to his captors for
a much longer period.

TIE "BILL OF SALE'' PASSED.

The tariff bill passed the Senate
July Sd by a vote of 80 to 34-a ma
jority of 5. Two populists, Messrs.
Stewart and PETER, voted with the re-
publican minority, and two populists,
Messrs. Kyle and Allen, joined the
democratic column. Irby, Of South
Carolina, whose vote to the last re-
NAMED doubtful, voted aye much to
the surprise of everybody, his demo-
cratic friends not excepted. Senator
Hill was the only democrat whose vote
was recorded against the bill of sale
and surrender. The vote in detail is
as follows:

Hoar of Massachusetts,; Mcpherson
of New Jersey, and Morrill, Of Yer
mont; Camden of West Virginia and
Pettigrew af South Dakota.
The bill has been sent to the House
and conference committee of the two
houses is working upon it. Just what
their report will be is uncertain. At
ter this report is sent back to the two
houses the debate will break out
afresh and there is no determining
just when or how the matter will end.
The hot weather and the great press
ure upon the democrats to pass some
thing will push them forward to end
the thing up, probably within the
next six weeks.

The gubernational campaign of
1895 is opening early. The Rutland
Herald has mentioned" ex-Gov.
Fletcher in that connection, and now
the esteemed Morrisville NeaUs and
Citizen ventures the assertion that
"Col Woodbury's successor in 1896
will be a farmer and soldier combined
and Josiah Grout will be his name.n
Both of these gentleman are friends
of ours, and each would make an ex-
cellent governor; but would it not be
better to finish up the present guber-
material campaign before beginning
another? The old saying about the
early bird and the worm is not quoted
approvingly in politics SO much as
formerly; for it is now recognized
that while the bird according to the
adage does well to be early, the worm
would do better to be later.-Free

The murder of Col. Parsons in Vir-
ginia is another instance where bru-
tality and malice cause the maddened
wretch to commit a crime which
shocks humanity and makes one al
most despair of the condition Of the
country. The old spirit Of hatred
which led to murderous war is still
extant in many places in the South,
only seeking himsy occasion to mani
fest itself in cruel murder. If the mis-
cradle wretch who perpetrated the
crime could be brought to the gallows
and there made an example Of, which
should show that crime is punished,
it might deter the comission of other
brutal acts. But this is doubtful The
spirit that was shown in the murderer
is too prevalent and the courts OF Vir-
ginia and the juries of state
where murder, political crimes and
cruelty are rampant, are very liable
to let the william go free. Sheridan's
troops, thorough as the work was,
might have done more for the good
of humanity and the credit of the
country, if they had done more in
the Shenandoah Valley.

b point. He said that he did not
Ftend to be learned in political

Ell to an English manufacturer,
erica had the steel and England had
twenty dollars. But when he paid

manufacturer, America had both
