Strong Congressional pclcga,iuu

It is n fact generally recognized that
Vermont owes her envial position and
influence in the national councils to her
policy OF retaining tho services of strong
men as members of the States delegation
in Congress-. and the wisdom of his course
has become SO thoroughly established that
the people of Vermont are in no danger of
departing from it. We have already
spoken of the recognized strength of our
congressman, and turning to the list Of
Nermonts United States senators, the
high character and ability of the men who
have represented the Green Mountain
state in the upper branch Of Congress at
once becomes evident Few states can pre-
sent more brilliant array Of United
states senators than Collamer, Foote,
Phelps Prcntiss ana Edmunds, who have
represented Vermont in the upper house,
and our present distinguished senator's,
Morrill, and Proctor. Our policy OF send
ing men of marked ability and pronounced
efficiency to Washington has become so
well known that the country has como to
look for nothing but strong men from
Vermont, and it is gratifying to say that
in this respect the country is never disap-
pointed.
Maine is another State whose people he
lieve in keeping men of distinguished abil-
ity in Congress, and one effect of the pur-
suancc of this policy is to be seen in the
strength Of tho Pine Tree States present
delegate in both houses IN 1851 Han
nibal Hamlin ana James g. Blaine were
succeeded as United States senators from
Maine by Eugene Hale and William p.
Frye, respectively, and the terms of the
TWO Maine senators will not terminate
until 1899 and 1901 respectively. Each of
these had enjoyed previous experience in
the House, Halo having begun his con-
Gressional career in 1869, during the recon
struction period and Frye in 1871.
or Names congressman, Speaker Reed
entered the House in 1871, ana has there
fore served in nine Congresses beside that
whose history largely remains to be made.
Congressman Dinelcy and Routc!lc have
been members of the House since 1881.
Dingley having been elected TO succeed
Frye upon the latter's election to the Sen
ate. Congressman Seth L. Milliken was
elected to the Forty Eighth Congress in
1888 and his service in the House has been
continuous to the present time.
1t appears from this summary that
Speaker Reed has been reelected to Con-
gress nine times, Dingley and Boutellc
seven times, and Allliken six times, and
that there has not been a change in
Names entire delegation 10 Congress for
the remarkable period OF twelve years.
This record is probably without a parallel,
and it's contemplation can not fail to con-
firm the wisdom of tho congressional
policy which has become 20 thoroughly
established i'm Vermont.

A High Honor Comes TO n Vermonter

We learn with pleasure that our Yer
mont astronomer, Mr. Loyal H. Bradford,
of North Ferrsbursh, w., whose OCCASION
al communications to the FREE PRESS
on astronomical subjects have attracted
wide attention among scholars and SCENT
lists, and given instruction and pleasure

by DIR. Lewis Swift of Mount Lowe OBJ
servatory, Echo Mountain, California, in

to an American, and Is conferred only in

That Vermont is we'll represented i'm the
liousc a. well as in the upper branch Of
Congress, is Of course am established fact
with residents of this State; for if our
congressman were not able men it is safo
10 say they would not be in Washington.
At the same time it is pleasant TO have
Nermonts good opinion Of her represen-
tstiycs confirmed in the halls of Congress
whore they measure minds and abilities
with the strong men sent TO the national
capital by other States. Normont's mem
herr Of Congress have been highly com
phnented in previous sessions SO that the
estimation i'm which they are held by fell
low members Is well known, but nothing
hat occurred during their previous SCR
vice has indicated their position and
strength with their colabOrers as have
events connected with the opening Of the
first session Of the Fifty-Fourth Congress.
During Congressman ". W. CIRCUITS
long term Of service, he has not only look
I'd after the interests of constituents in a
most thorough and satisfactory manner,
but he has also taken an important part
ina shaping national legislation. Gen.
CIRCUITS services in connection with the adj
mlIlSlrduOn OF the dHdlrS OF me District
of Columbia won general praise, ana that
this commeudatiou was deserved Is ind-
Gated by the following extract from the
columns Of the Washington Star with
reference TO the craftsmanship of the
House committee on the District Of Co
lUmba:
Recently a strong local sentiment has
developed favorable to the disappointment
of Mr.. Grout Of Vermont to this import
ant position if his services can be secured.
Mr. Grout was chairman Of the committee
in the Fifty-Flrst Congress, filing the
place in d manner highly acceptable TO the
citizens OF the District, Those who urge
his reappontment make the point that
there will be nothing experimental in this
step, as there viii be in tho case of any
untred man; that Mr., Grout has a wide
familiarity with the needs OF the District.
and that by his long service Of twelve
wears in Congress and on the committee
on appropriations he is in touch with local
interests to an unusual degree, ana has
also gained the respect and confidence of
the House"
