The Lincoln Fountain Pen.

Price $1.00 only; but the price is the only
thing about the pen that is cheap. The
Lincoln is in fact a $3.50 pen. and it is in
all respects first-class pen. The editor of
this paper had tried, at various times, the
most approved high priced pens on the mar
ket, and returned to the stub steel pen
every time as the only thing. ready for busi-
ness on demand. Some months ago the
Lincoln was sent him on trial, and it has
proved great success. 1t is always ready
to "go," but never overdoes the thing
the ink flowing always uniformly and in the
right measure. This pen is now used in all
departments of this office, for all kinds OF
service, and has stood the test without a
failure. The Lincoln is now in use in the
banking, insurance, commercial and manu-
featuring offices Of Montpelier and has been
bought by people in all the professions and
employments. 1t is the UNIVERSAL FAVOR
TIE. Every pen guaranteed. For sale at
the Watchman Office, or sent by mail, post
age paid, to any part of the country, on re-
ceipt of S1.O0. Address Wstchman Pub

YOUNG REPUBLICANS
Celebrate LinCoIn's Birth
day in the Queen City.
A GRAND DEMONSTRATION.
Eloquent Grafton by Chaun-
cey M. Depew.

The following special telegram to the
WATCHMAN from Burlington, Tuesday
evening, gives good idea of the entbusi-
asm that prevailed in the Lake City yester-
day when the young republicans of the
state celebrated the anniversary of the
birthday of Lincoln:
The frat public meeting of the Young
Mems Republican Club of Vermont was
held in the opera house this afternoon.
The large auditorium and stage were
crowded, and many were turned away fro N
the doors. President d. j. Foster opened
with a carefully.prepared address, setting
forth tersely the reasons for the existence
of the organization.
" After a catchy song by the U. V. M.
quartette, in which Mr.. Depew was happily
referred to, Governor Woodbury., on behalf
of the older republicans, spoke few W Jrds
Of encouragement to the boys.
" The Grafton of the day was delivered
by Hon. Chauncey M. Depew. 1t was a
brilliant and profound speech, principally
devoted to character sketch of Lincoln
and an eloquent delineation and analysis
of the true cause of his greatness. Mr.. De-
pew spoke to his enraptured and enthusi-
astic audience for an hour and five minutes.
The speech was sparkling with bright turns
of humor and epi yrammatic expression, but
was particularly remarkable for its philo-
sophie analysis of the causes of Lincoln's
greatness. No more magnificent grafton
was probably ever delivered in Vermont.
General Mccullough followed in a brief
and bright address principally devoted to
witty and eulogistic references to Mr. De-
pew, and closed with the intimation that
the now PRESIDENT of the New York Gen.
trail railroad was a potential president of a
still greater corporation-an allusion that
provoked unbounded enthusiasm.
A recep ion followed. At the banquet
to he held this evening, 700 covers will be
laid, and already tickets are at premium.
Officers will then be chosen for the ensuing
year. Great enthusiasm prevails"

As has often been said, this is a
product comparatively unknown Il
few years ago, when Il great deal OF
wheat was shipped from here. With
the growth of the stock business,
wheat raising has fallen off, until
now it is a secondary consideration.
The money realized from the stock
shipments, however, as shown above,
would equal shipments OF wheat at
the present price, to the amount OF
about 1851 900 bushels, which we
believe is a greater amount than has
been shipped, bat hereafter the prin-
cipal shipments from this point will
likely be butter and eggs and stock.
SO in looking over the official record
of what this locality has produced,
and turned into money it would APP
pear that the receipts for 1895 will
be as good rs those OF any other
year.

sued orders to it's agents to allow a

used in putting down artesian wells.
This will include machinery, piping,
coal, etc, and will be quite a saving
for all persons engaging in this in

that the railroad company desires to
encourage the sinking OF artesian
wells along it's lines in this section.
