Another Paper for Stickney.

The Waterbury Record has come to the
support of w. w. Stickney for governor
The Record says in part:
IF without any appreciable increase in
our population or our exports, our expenses
are increasing at the rate of hundreds of
thousands of dollars year, it is time to
look ahead, before calamity arrives. Our
state legislation is not a game of chance
opportunity or succession; and the office
of our chief executive should never be
allowed to sink to that of mere sinecure.
The wisest, ablest and most experienced
man within the borders of our state alone
should be trusted. Him shall we look to
and he alone would we dare to support
We have chosen to support and advocate
Mr.. Stickney Of Ludlow, for the reason
that we believe him tn be the abler legis-
lator of the two candidates, and the man
best fitted to deal with the many interests
in Vermont requiring Legislative attention
at the present time"

Trouble Ahead.

The considerable amount of truth which
the republican newspapers Of Vermont are
now engaged in telling about the party's
political methods, the operations of the
bosses, the work of the machine" and
the tremendous increase in state expenses
all along the line is likely to kick up con

uted over the troubled water before long.
Some disagreeable and mighty uncomfort-
able facts are being stated, and if there
was any opposition to the republican party
in this state that amounted to anything that
opposition would be largely benefited by
the disclosures now being made. But even
If there are only republicans in Vermont il
is not good politics to cut each other.

Phelps on Monroe Doctrine.

Last Monday evening Hon. f. j. Phelps
delivered an Grafton in New York the occa-
sion being the Inauguration Of the law de-
partmcnt of the Brooklyn Institute, and
the distinguished jurist and ex-minister to
the court of st. James said some remark
able things. After going elaborately into
the history and origin of the Monroe doc
trine he asked.
''How is this applicable to Venezuelao'
''IIave we any conceivable interest in the
question ofthe boundary line drawn through
a Jungle of swamps9"
Mr.. Phelps declared that no country had
any real right to interfere with the affairs
of another country with which it had no
quarrel except for humanity's sake. AS to
the old dispute between England and Ven
ezuela over the boundary line, he said he
believed it would eventually be found out
that there is no real boundary line or never
was. This troublesome line is no line.
As to Cuba, he pronounces the rising OF
the patriots there "a rebellion of banditti,
with no central organization, no capital OR
government; a rebellion of pillage, an
archy, and murder"
Residence abroad is a dangerous thing
for such men as Bayard and Phelps. 1t
destroys what little patriotism they ever
possessed 1t has been we'll remarked

THE CANTON CROWDS.
Thousands of Visitors Heard Speeches by
Mr.. Mckinley

Canton, o., Sept. 15.-The reception Of
the old soldiers to-day was most enthusi-
astic. The Woman's Relief Corps and
thousands of Cantoniuns followed the
parade to the Mckinley home. Every
post in the county and many from adioin-
ing counties were represented. Major
Mckinley was given an ovation and was
interrupted by cheers ut short intervals
Col. j. j. Clark presented the delegation
In stirring speech, to which Mr. McKin-
ley responded Mt great length.
When the handshaking was reached
there was great rush. The delegation
from Somerset, Pa, over 1000. was an
preaching and it was feared there would
be no time for all to get to Mckinley,
The Pennsylranians had five bands ana
many banners and emblems. The trim
was arranged by the Lincoln Club, of
Somerset, Pa. This delegation of farmers
came over 250 miles. State Senator Nor
ton Il. Critchfield made the Introductory
address. Three times Major MCKINLEY
began to speak and each time was inter
rupted by cheering and when he conclud-
ed there was unusual eagerness to shake
his hand.
Hon. Richard Kerens, national commit
teeman from Missouri, was ut the McKin.
ley home to-day. His State will send the
first big delegation of farmers from the
West October 5, from along the Santa
Fe road, which passes through Northern
Missouri. Mr.. Kerens SAYS with four
tickets in the field in Missouri, Republi-
can success is highly probable Every
thing east of the Alleghanies, he saws is
safe without additional work and the
western situation is entirely satisfactory.
