POMONA.
The Republican Rally Was Not Alto
gether a Success.

POMONA, Oct. 10.-Pomona Republi-
cans have nothing to be proud of in the
Perkins Mckinley rally that was held
here Friday night, except that Senator
Perkins, of course, was drawing card.
Aside from this, however, the effects
have been very depressing. There was
lack of enthusiasm, in the first place,
in the formation of the parade" the
only thing that put life into it being the
maneuvers of the ontario and North On
tario Marching clubs, who came down
In special train, well drilled and uni
formed. They showed the Mckinley
club OF Pomona thing or two in the
way of tactics that knocked the home
club silly, and We're the cynosure of all
eyes; but in their pride they had
fall, and thereby hangs a tale. For in
stead of being full of an enthusiasm that
would last them the whole evening
through, they thought to keep their
courage up by filling up on beer, and
at the time of the departure of their
train, great number Of the Mckinley
heroes were drunk as lords; SO much
so, in fact, that they were put aboard the
train as so many logs. If Senator Per-
kins could have foreseen all that was
to transpire during the evening, no
doubt he would have refrained from
complimenting Pomona on the fact of
not having any (so-called) saloons, as
seNeH uo2eil empty peer bottles have
been found on the streets this morning.
In his speech here Senator Perkins
refrained from talking on the money
question, but instead told of the bene-
fits of protection, reciprocity, and the
contemplated building of the Nicara-
qua canal.

A Few Figures.

Supposing the present campaign takes
the form Of a sectional struggle, the north
ern end OF the state VS.. the southern end !,
the north supporting Grout as its candidate,
and the south Stickney, the role of coun-
ties would stand as follows: Northern
end, Caledonia, ~ delegates; Chittenden,
80; Essex, 19; Franklin. 80; Grand Isle,
Il; Lamoille, 2S; Orange, AZ; Orleans,
~, total Of 3o2 delegates. Southern
end, Addison, 65; Bennington, ~; Rut-
land, s3; Washington, 60; Windham, SO !;
Windsor, 63, total of 81. This would
give Mr.. Stickney clear majority of CO.
However the lines will not be thus clearly
drawn; each candidate will get delegates
in the others territory. Up to yesterday
morning SO far as we have learned there
had been 81 delegates chosen of these
Grout had 29, and Stickney so. Stickney
had 25 in the northern counties and Grout
only in the southern. This looks as
though Mr.. Stickney would be able to
hold his own in spite of snap caucuses.
Bellows Falls times. [volume] (Bellows Falls, Vt.) 1856-1965, 1896-06-03
General Grout and Seward Webb.

Shelburne, the home of DR.. w. Sewart
Webb, the New York millionaire, sent DR.
Webb as Grout delegate to the conven
tion and Ex-Gov. Barstow as a Stickne,
delegate.
Commenting on the matter the Burling-
ton News says: "Some weeks since, so
the story runs, DIR. Webb issued an order
that Shelburne should elect Grout dele
gation with himself as chairman" There is
also another part to the story to the effect
that DR.. Webb was urgently requested to
deliver the goods by none other than Gen.
w. W. Grout, the present congressman
from the second district, and brother of
Josiah, the gubernatorial candidate. AT
any rate the outcome was a hot canvass
and victory for the Stickney forces.
If this story is true, what can be said in
commentator OF the conduct of congress-
man who so far forgets the dignity of his
position as to attempt to dictate to the free
voters of Vermont; who will prostitute the
prestige given him by the people to subvert
the will Of the people, and in behalf of his
own brother at thatp

Snap Caucuses.

Ihe Grout forces supposed they had a
plan OF campaign that would work like a
charm,-it was to call caucuses early in all
the towns where they supposed they had a
walk-over, and by the enthusiasm thus
engendered and by hurrahing and flourish
ing OF trumpets to carry the state by storm :;
but their little trick was discovered early
in the game with disastrous results. Plans
were all laid to capture Poultney, Leicester,
and Burlington, but there was slip.
In the entire northern part of the state
caucuses have been called from week to
10 days earlier than in the southern half.
Why? To give the Grout boom prestige
and momentum. Does any one ask why
Mr.. Stickney did not have caucuses earlier
IN the towns he is certain of carrying? /?
The answer is simple. Mr.. Stickney and
his friends do not in most instances control
the machinery that calls caucuses there
are too many of Mr.. Grout's friends on
town committees who have received their
cue IRON headquarters. Requests to call
early caucuses in towns sure to 90 for
Stickney have been fatly refused by
adherents to Mr.. Grout's cause and for no
other apparent reason than to stem the
Stlckney tide as long as possible.

1.-The Farmers Advocate still insists
that Major Grout sis the candidate of the
farmers and that the farmers should not
fail to rally to his support in large numbers
and ensure his nomination. In this con-
nection we reproduce what the TINES said
editorially last week:
Josiah Grout, the gentleman from Derby
who wants to be governor, and who is
posing as the farmer candidate, has an ag-
ricultural record that will bear inspection.
We are informed that he was not born on
farm and did very little farming until his
present farm, the Clydeside, was inherited
by his wife. Since then he has devoted a
very limited portion of his time to agricul-
tural pursuits ; and yet Mr.. Grout is given
to talking about ''we farmers" A man
who claims to be bona fde farmer, and
never thought OF farming until his wife in
herited farm for him cannot furnish the
best of credentials
Mr.. Grout as a farmer asks the farmers
OF the state to support him in his political
aspirations. All the Grout organs are
working the farmer racket. They say that
'iiO AoA hiol o VI SldIc nave IlOU DGen rep
resented in the distribution of the loaves
and fishes as they should have been, and
that here is an opportunity for them to
vote Tor one OF their own number and thus
as class gain high political recognition.
But how long since Mr.. Grout allied him
self politically with the farmers of the
stateP How long has he been working
tooth and nail for the advancement ol
''farmer candidates ?" Where was Farmer
Grout when Hon. H. A. Fletcher of Caven-
dish, than whom Vermont has no better
representative, public spirited farmer, as
pred to the governorsbip of this state !?
Was he farmer then and working for the
farmer candidate? No. He was with the
ring then and working for the ring candi-
date the same as to-day. Had Mr. Grout
labored for the nomination of Mr.. Fletcher
as zealously as he did the nomination Of
Mr.. Fuller, Mr.. Fletcher would have been
nominated, and worthy man, one who is
farmer indeed would have been seated
in the governors chair. Is Josiah Grout
himself the only farmer candidate that
Josiah Grout and his clansmen will sup
portP The thinking, independent farmers
OF the state should ponder these things, and
not suffer their Intelligence to be insulted
by any such miserable suhterfuge as that
with which Mr.. Grout and his friends hope
to blind their eyes and catch their votes.
