The Ring vs.. the People.

As to the lieutenant goyemorship,
Col. Mansur, the candidate of the ring,
has been less fortunate than Col.
Woodbury.. Some unhallowed indi-
viduals have dared enter the charmed
circle. and the blessing of general
consent" has been denied him. The
Fair Haven Record strikes the nail
squarely on the head when il says:
The canvass for Lieutenant govern
orship is taking the form, not new in
Vermont, of struggle between the
politicians and the people. Ii is well
known that as a rule very small
number of men direct the disposition
of Vermont State offices. The same
men do this year after year, being
beaten occasionally, but always striy-
ing to keep the mastery, always work
ing secretly, and always for their own
ends. Some Of these men are person.
ally unobiectionable, and when they
have their own way the State is some
times well served: but still ii is true
that small ''ring" undertakes to boss
things year in and year out, and that
their rule is wrong in principle and
often debauching in results This
ring is nearly all supporting Mansur
for the lieutenant governorship."
And the Rutland Herald is equally
correct when il says substantially the
same thing:
''The canvass has in the last fort
night taken the shape of distinct
struggle between the politicians on
one side and the mass of the people on
the other or course Col. Mansur has
his friends, who support him from
personal considerations as they have
perfect right TO do, but the real strength
of his candidacy lies in the fact that
he is supported by certain potential
politicians. They are politicians who
like best to operate through pocket
caucuses and secret methods, and year
after year work TO get their own tool,
into office and cheat the people. Nor
every man of this kind is active. but
still .'the old gang" is in the main al
work for Mansur, and il Is that fact
and nothing else which makes the
formidable. The >ubstan-
tial argument used in his favor, when
all Is simmered down, is simply, III j.
no use TO oppose him; the political
powers want him elected.
These are the facts, Republicans Of
Vermont: what are YOU going to DO
about them?-St Johnsbury Calcdo-
man.

The discussion of popular government
BASED on universal suffrage, which was
begun in the May number of Donahoe's,
and which has created such widespread
interest, is continued with vigor in the
June number, the significance of certain
recent public utterances being dwelt up
on. Two radically different articles are
''The Blessings Of Monopoly" and aThe
Oasis of SiWah.n In the former, Rev. I.
A. Kendrick, a Catholic clergyman, pre-
sents the strongest possible argument for
the competitive system OF monopoly, it's
inevitable result, and in the latter article,
a German writer shows, in the form OF an
allegory, the meaning Of rent and inter
est. The halo surrounding the name Of
John Brown Is somewhat ruthlessly dis

crime Frances Cavanagh on "Harper's

scholarly and fascinating study of "The
Ancient Schools of Ireland" and Mary
Elizabeth Blake has a remarkably strong
Spanish story. The illustrations OF the
number and the shorter articles are up to
the magazines ususl high standard.

Why Homer w. Vail?

We favor the candidacy Of Mr.. Vail
for the lieutenant goyernorship:
First. because he is a gentleman OF
intelligence, high personal character,
practical capacity and public spirit.
This is the uniform testimony Of his
neighbors, fellow-townsmen and all
who are intimately acquainted with
him. His record a a man and as a
citizen is free from any Objectionable
features and shows that, personally. he
would do credit to the high office to
which he aspires and into which his
friends want TO put him.
Second, because his career has given
him special preparation for the sue
cesSful discharge of the duties of the
office. lie is practical and success
full farmer and, consequently, has been
in close touch with the great majority
of the people OF the State. He has had
in both branches Of the leg
islature. so he would be no novice in
matters of legislation. He has also
been a member of the State board Of
agriculture for several years, and in
this capacity, he has had peculiar op-
portunities for becoming acquainted
with Vermont and her affairs. and espe-
cially with the needs of the great ag-
ricultural interests of the State. II

Scribner's Magazine,

Scribner's for June is strikingly attrae.
tive in its illustrations. The froDtispiece
"The Lighthouse is one Of the best in
these selections by Philip Gilbert Hamer-
ton, which have given such a distinct ar
tistie feature 10 this publication. The
lighthouse is at Newlyn, England, and
was painted by Stanhope A. Forbes, who
resides there. Frances Hodgson Burnett
tells 'Ths Story of Beautiful Thing"
which is the origin and the work of the
"Invalid Children's Aid Association" in
London. 1t is charmingly written tho
she calls attention to cases that are pain
fully touching. An important historical
paper is by John Heard, Jr., entitled
Macmillan and Mexico" Ii is quite
worthy the place it occupies as the open
ing article OF this number.

For Lieutenant Governor.

Mr.. Homer w. Wallis popularity a,
a candidate for the office Of lieutenant
governor, grows apaee. The majority
Of the newspapers Of the Stale that
have said anything on the question,
are for Mr.. Vail, and the chances for
his nomination are more than even.
Ii is not merely because he is the
farmers candidate, nor because he has
said that he is opposed to the promo
ton plan and, if elected, would not
be candidate for the governorship,
nor because Mr. Mansur is G. A. X.
man. that he is considered worthy of
the office, but il is because of his own
fitness for the place, and because, If
nominated and elected, he VIII be fair
alike to farmers, bankers, merchants
and corporations, without being biased
in favor of either to the prejudice of
any.
The fact that lac is himself farmer
ought to ensure his hearty support by
every farmer, and if the farmers are in
a majority in the convention, as they
usually are, and are sure to be If they
will but see that delegates are sent who
are true to their interests, there is not
shadow Of doubt but that Mr..
Vail will be nominated.
The matter Of electing delegates is
an important one, and every farmer
should attend the meetings called for
this purpose and see TO il that the
right men are selected. If this matter
is left to the ''wire-pullers' and pro-
fessional politicians, they will have
things their own way, and the farmers
will be left out in the cold.
Attend the primary meetings, elect
loyal delegates, listen patiently to all
the florid and eloquent speeches made
by the lawyers and political orators,
and then vote solidly for Vail and he
will be our next lieutenant governor.
One argument put forward in favor
OF Mr.. Wallis candidacy is that he is
opposed to the ''promotion plan, and
that if elected TO the office of lieuten-
AMI governor, he win not be a candi-
date for the office of governor: while
il i said that Col. Mansur intends us
ing the subordinate Office as a step
ping-stOne to the higher one. Now,
while we believe that no man should
have a mortgage ON an office, we do
not believe that man should be dis
qualified for any Office simply because
lie has held another. Let every tub
stand on its own bottom. and let pro-
motion come 10 those who are entitled
to it. Mr.. Vail makes no claims and
is not fishing for the goyernorship,
and. in all probability, will not be
candidate for that office; but we are
among those who believe that his
chances ought 10 be just as good as
any other mans if he shall prove HIM
self faithful to his trusts.-Farmer's
Advocate.

State Politics.
Do You Want Representation?

The question now arises, DO tho
farmers of Vermont want to be repre-
sented on the State ticket" They
have candidate, as clean. as able Il
candidate as any party in the state
can produce, and who. although pull
ing no wires TO get the nomination, is
yet willing, us all good citizens should
be, to accept the Office which must be
filled, and which must be filed by a
representative of the people. Homer
W. Wall has larger newspaper fol-
lowing than any other candidate.
There is no doubt that he is the choice
of the people, Farmers of Vermont,
if you want Hon. Homer w. Vail for
Lieutenant governor, remember that
the nomination is the election. Come
out to the caucuses! Look to tile dele
gates that are chosenl Be sure they
are right, and after election the ticket
will read Woodbury. and VAIL

would be difficult TO conceive a better
preparation for the lieutenant govern
orship.
Third. because his success in the
convention and at the polls would be
specially advantageous in many ways
al this time. lie is not a professional
office-seeker and is not suspected Of
connection with any clique, and his
success would help to dissipate the
impression that Vermont politics and
State Offices are in the hands Of ring.
1t would be practical assertion Of
the principle that the prospects of po-
litical preferment in this State are
not affected by ones occupetion, and
that the pursuit of agriculture does
not necessitate the suppression Of hon
Orable ambition to rise 10 high official
positions. 1t would strengthen the
conviction that in Vermont, political
honor5 are not for the chronic and
professional ofiice-seeker, but for the
man who pursues diligently and sue
cessfully some honorable and produce
tive occupation. Furthermore, the
success of Mr.. Vail at the convention
would go far to relieve the Grand Ar
my from the charge of meddling in
politics, which charge il can hardly
escape if two prominent members are
placed at the head of the tieket.-Lud-
low Tribune.

We Judge from certain editorials in
some of the newspapers of the State,
which favor candidates other than Col.
Mansur, that they are discounting his
success in the race for the nomination
for lieutenant governor in advance.
When il becomes necessary TO claim
results have been the work Of the ina
chine, of the estate makers" etc, it is
pretty evident that they have no ar
guments TO offer against a candidate.
There are some mutterings against
Col. Mansur because he is G.. A. r.
man and his nomination would place
two soldiers on the ticket, and there is
the usual talk about "A farmers" tick
ct, but no one seems to claim that Col.
Mansur lacks in ability, integrity or
experience. II there is any vital rea-
son why he should not aspire TO the
place, let it be stated. The II. Johns
bury papers still hang out for Mr..
Bates of that town. If the solid men
of that county and his friends outside
the county support Hon. b. f. Lin
coin, he will receive no small follow
ing, we predict. The contest for this
place will, doubtless, be quite ami
mated in convcntion.-B Barton Moni-

NEWPORT, Ark, Feb. S. The jury in
the second trial of Albert Mansker at
10 a. n. yesterday returned verdict of
murder in the first degree. Notice was
given that motion for a new trial
would be made, and the judge gave
until 1:30 to prepare the motion.
The motion for a new trial for Thom-
as Brady was called up and overruled
The same disposition was made of the
motion to grant James L. Wyrick new
trial.
AT 1:30 Thomas Brady, James L.
Wyrick and Albert Mansker were
brought from the Jail into court to have
the sentence of death pronounced upon
them. After reviewing the history of
the trial in which the presiding judge
called the attention of Thomas Brady
to the fact that be had been indicted
by the grand jury for murder in the
first degree and that be had been tried
by jury of his own selection and CIV
en- every opportunity to prove his inno-
| cence, that be was convicted of mur-
der in the first degree, he asked him if
he bad any legal excuse why the SEN
tence of death should not be pronunced
upon him. Brady replied, 'T have
nothing to say" The judge said: at
is the sentence of the court that you be
kept in jail for safe keeping until Fri
day, April 6, 1894, when you will be
hung by the sheriff of Jackson county by
the neck until your body is dead" The
same proceedings were enacted IN
the cases of Jas. L. Wyrick and Albert
