Whlie there is every prospect of a good
price for hay in Vermont the coming win
ter ii is announced that there is an i'm
mense demand for canal boats to bring
hay from Canada. 1t lis said that enor-
nous quantities of this product are await
ing shipment, and Canadian hay will of
course largely profit from the situation.
Everyone knows that when farmers are
prosperous retail trade and business in
general dependent thereon is good, and
inasmuch as hay is one of the chief
staple agricultural products of this State
bur farmers are likely to keenly feel this
competition from Canada made possible
by the present tariff.

They Repudiate Senator German.

Senator German succeeded in securing
control of the late democratic convention
in Baltimore, but in so doing he stirred up
his political opponents in the Monumental
State to renewed efforts. and the indica-
tons are there will be a lively If not fatal
fractional contest in the democratic party
during the coming gubernatorial contest
1t is announced that over seventy repre-
sentative Independent democrats of Mary
land met at Annapolis on Tuesday and
adopted a resolution in opposition to the
German ticket as follows:
That we, in convention assembled. do
pledge ourselves to do all in our power to
defeat the so-called democratic ticket. We
believe that by so doing we will have more
principle and fewer bosses"
Preparations were made for the calling
of an independents convention TO nominate
ticket in opposition to that placed in the
field by the German crowd, and petition
to the governor was drawn up appealing
for the appointment of new supervisors
of election, Whose integrity shall be
above suspicion and whose name shall be
a guarantee Of fairness"
The anti-Gorman democrats of Mary
land are plainly bent on war to the knife
against the boss and Senator German
may yet be made to bite the political dust.

Editor o. me Rutland Herald:
! am much surprised at the editorial in

ernor Woodbury. as a Rumseller." | have
owned the Van Ness House for "A years
and during that time there has been no
Intoxicating liquor kept in or about it,
nor have | during that time been en-
gagged directly or Indirectly in the liquor
traffic in the Van Ness House or in any
other place. If the guests of the Van Ness
House have persuaded any Of my en-
ployes to act as their agents to procure
liquor for them such employees must have
obtained it outside of the Van Ness
House, and they acted upon their own
responsibility and at their own peril.
You accuse me of owning two rumholes
and running one. You designate me as
Rumsellcr Woodbury. and in other words
accuse me of being a common criminal.
am willing to endure in silence ordinary
newspaper criticisms but my personal
self-respect and my respect for the high
Office in which the good people of the
State Of Vermont have placed me, and my
desire that the fair name OF Vermont
should not be traduccd and discredted
abroad, forbid my passing in silence the
highly libellous article referred to ] there

mediate retraction in your paper, failing
in which | shall adopt legal means to
bring you to account for your outrageous
libel. Yours very truly.

Woodburys letter; amplified somewhat its
curious legal proposition, that lodgcr in
hotel who sends out and obtains liquor
involves the owner of the hotel property
in violation of the law. but declined to re-
tract its ISLANDERS. Governor Woodpury
thereupon retained Hon. William p. Dill
