YOUNG MEMS REPUBLICAN CLUB.
Next Annual Meeting to Be Held at
Rutland on Lincoln's Birthday.


Rutland on Lincoln's Birthday.
The executive committee Of the
Young Mems Republican club OF Yer
mont met Friday afternoon at Bur.
lington to dcJide upon the place fol
holding the next annual meeting and
banquet OF the club, for the celebra-
ton of Lincoln's birthday on Februa-
ny -.
The executive committee consists Of
one member from each county in the
state. These members were present at
the meeting: R.W. Hurlburd of Hyde
Park, Frank l.. Fish Of yergennes, J.
II. Bromley Of Pawlet, G. A. Prouty
OF Newport, G. $. Emery Of Chelsea,
w. II. Moore Of Woodstock, Fuller G.
Smith of St. Adams and j. K. Cush-
man Of Burlington. These members
of the club were present: Pres. Geo.
M. Powers of Morrisville, Secretary
Frank l.. Greene of st. Adams, f. d..
White of Rutland and EXPIRES. ID. j..
Foster Of Burlington.
Pres. Powers presided at the meet
ing, which was very enthusiastic
one, and after due consideration it
was decided to hold the next annual
meeting and banquet at Rutland.
Montpelier was mentioned, but in view
of the fact that one Of the important
conventions which arctic be held next
year will be held there and that the
recent legislative reunion was also held
there, Rutland was selected.
1t was proposed to hold the meet
ing in the city hall, which has seat
ing capacity Of over 1000 people. 1t
was also suggested that the banquet
be held at 6 o'clock and that the
speaking be at the banquet. 1t was
deemed advisable by the committee to
carry out the original plan Of the club,
to celebrate the birthday of Lincoln
by banquet and addresses, and to do
SO independently of other organiza-
tions, as in this way there will be no
friction, and each can preserve its
identity. Pres. Geo. T. Childs of the
State League sent letter, urging a
joint convention OF the two organiza-
tions, but this was declined by vote
of 4 to 3.
Among those who have been sug-
gested as probable speakers are: RIB.
Horr, formerly of Michigan; Stephen
l.. W0odford OF Brooklyn; Congress-
man Dingley Of Maine, chairman OF
the ways and means committee; j.
Sloat Fassett of New York and ex-
Gov. Foraker of Ohio.

States senator from Nebraska, was
written i'll the scrap book of M. E.
w heller OF Rutland:
81 love my native state, Vermont.
My ancestors for four generations

the ardor of his inherited patriotism,
and gave up his life for the prcselva-
ton of the Union.
One of her daughters crowned my
life with love and blessed my western
home with jewels Of her motherhood.
So let me live, so let me die; that
dear Vermont, my mother, may be
glad to write above my dust, "This
was my SON." JOHN NJ. THuRsToN,
