lotus-eaters" over the sea. The plea
for peace eliminates in this convincing
piece Of logic: Z" If war should occur,
English literature would be dishonored
and disfgured for century to come by
patriotic songs, histories of victories
and defeats, records of humiliation and
disgrace" etc. The address, in con-
clusion, calls upon "poets and orators,
scholars and philosophers, men and
women of imagination and vision," to
exercise their far-reaching influence"
for what, to save Venezuela from the
hands of the thief?-"to save our lit
erature from dishonor and our race
from lasting ipjury"l If only patriotic
songs and some stalwart old-time lit
erature should supplant the existing
literary dilettanteism, as the result of
war, the conflict would not be entirely
in vain. But why are these "men and
women of imagination and vision "
sending their fantastic plea to this side
of the water? Their mission of peace,
like charity's, should begin at home,
with the people-four hundred of whose
representatives in the house of COM
mons signed the petition in favor of
arbitration presented last year to the
American congress, but whose govern
ment summarily rejects the olive branch
when offered for its acceptance.

The Waterman for 1896.

The name of the next governor of Vermont
will be announced in the WATcHMAN of
Wednesday, September 2. Some very in
spring figures will unquestionably accom-.
pany the announcement.
The name OF the next president OF the
United States will be published in the
WATCHMAN OF Wednesday, November A.
The announcement will be confirmed by
election returns of so decisive a character
that no electoral commission will be re-
CURED to interpret their meaning.
Some trustworthy forecast of these two
very important events will undoubtedly
be published earlier than the dates men,
toned.
Between January / and November 4,
many events OF the strongest political
interest, in state and nation, will tran
spire. The canvass preceding the conven-
tions to choose delegates to the National
Convention; the meeting of the delegate

These events will constitute the first series,
and they will occupy the winter and spring
months.

fcers, and district conventions for repre-
sentatives in congress. An ardent canvass
for the honors OF the state convention
will precede that important assemblage.
Then will follow the campaign proceed
ing the elections, which will be the most
important and interesting since the end Of
the Civil War. Following the state cleo
ton will be the biennial session of the
Legislature. an event of great interest to
all the people Of Vermont.
Outside Of the great political events,
which will be many and of absorbing in
terest, is the news of the world, the Ma
ton, the state and the locality. From
sunrise January 1, to sunset December 81,
the year 1856 will be crammed with excit-
ing and important events, and the major
and minor happenings Of human life.
The VERMONT WATcHMAN will publish
all the political and general news Of the
day. Its specially will be Vermont news
and affairs. Published at the State Capital,
in contact with the sources of interesting
state news, it has facilities and opportuni-
ties for making an interesting state paper
not possessed by newspapers less favorably
situated.
Every Vermonter needs paper pub
lished at the State Capital, in touch with
the best sources Of news. The WATCHMAN
is that paper.
For nearly century, the WATERMAN
has been the great Family Paper OF Central
Vermont. 1t has no rival in its town and

Improvement is its watchword. In what.
ever respect changes can be made that

OBJECTION is raised to the bill of
Representative Grout, authorizing the
secretary of the interior to appoint a
congressional delegate from Alaska, on
the ground that it seeks to allow an Of
ficer who is not elected by the people
to participate in the deliberations of
congress. Territorial delegates are
elective officers, but Alaska is not a
territory. 1t holds no elections and has
no legislative assembly. The act Of
1884, providing civil government for
the country, created "civil and judi
cial district" not territory. So OBJ
lection is raised to representative in
congress appointed by and removable
at the will of Hocus Pocus Smith.

One of them is the custom of posting up black-bor- dered notices of invitation to funerals. I've seen That done in some of the lit tie towns in the gulf states, but no- where else. I know it's a sort of habit only from a conversation I had with an old-timer.

There was no ice ito be had and burials had to be done quickly, es- pecially in the summer time The only way to bring the news of the death and funeral to the attention of the public was by means of notices stuck on the posts, and the custom has continued to this date, when no necessity exists

THE CARLSON RAILROAD.

Los Angeles Record: A shadow of impractieability is thrown over the Carlson railroad proposition of utiliz- ing the Nevada Southern as means of getting another outlet for a trans continental line ito the east, when it is considered that the road in question is only thirty miles long, its ownership is not definitely settled and the line could be paralleled at a Jess cost than It would take to. redeem it. Local railroad men are, inclined to think more seriously of the work being done under the direction of prominent Nor mons. Actual construction work is now going On north and south from Cedar City, Utah. They are said to have an understanding with the St. Louis owners of the Terminal rail- way by which they iwi!l gain entrance to Los Angeles.
