One of the most enjoyable Of the
dances ever given at the Hawaiian Ho-
tel was that of last night, when Man
ager Lucas succeeded in showing what
he could do in that line. Everybody
had a good time and everybody wanted
another occasion of the kind as soon as
possible. The singers from the Ha-
waiian National Band were present on
the lanai and played and sang most
acceptably for the dancers. A large
number of HonoIulu's society people
were present. The French dinner and
the concert by the Hawaiian band were
the attractions before the dance.

the occasion was one of great enjoy
ment. The good things TO eat and the
music were enjoyed, not only by the
band boys alone, but by large number
of friends, among whom were members
OF the Frawley Company.

The result of the caucus held in Brattle-
boro last night does not change the opin-
ion of The Phoenix, expressed last week,
that Vermont ought to stand soidly, with
the rest of New England for Thomas B.
Reed for President of the United States
until the situation at ST. Louis develops.
There has been no doubt, since discussion
OF presidential candidates began, that a
strong Mckinley sentiment exists in Brat
tleboro. His enthusiastic supporters have
an unquestioned right to their opinions,
but we regard it a mistake, as a matter OF
general policy, to have insisted, contrary 10
all previous usage, on an expression such
as was carried through last night. 1t gives
the impression of a movement to make a
break in the Reed ranks in one of the strong
holds of New England Republicanism. So
far as this was the primary purpose in view
1t places us in false position with our
neighbors. The action of the majority in
having the delegations made up with three
Reed men on each was entirely fair.
If, as is alleged to be true the Reed SEN
timent elsewhere in the state is strong the
action in our caucus should not be allowed
to prejudice the candidacy Of DR.. Holton as
a delegate to ST. Louis. In case of DR..
Holton's election he will be found repre-
senting faithfully and independently in the
national convention the wishes OF his Yer.
mont constituency as expressed or gener.
ally understood.

Chauncey NJ. Depew, who has just re-
turned from a trip to California, accom- pa
MED by Cornelius Vanderbilt, says they
found business generally depressed in the
West, but no more so than in the East.
Everywhere they heard the same story.
There was promise of a revival of busi-
ness last fall and period of activity began,
but it was killed by the war scare, and the
failure to pass bond or currency bill.
"The country itself is in splendid condi-
tion; mining is booming and agriculture
could not be more promising. What is
wanted is either settled legislation or nc
legislation" Two things, Mr. Depew says,
will prevent the formation of free silver
party. These are the enormous increase
in the production of gold, especially in
California and Utah, and the fear in the
West that more silver agitation will kill
protection.

A large amount of sugar was made last
week, nearly UP TO the average of seasons.
1t is very seldom that there is so contin-
uous flow of sap as occurred from Sunday
until Saturday. And as it did not run
any night during the time, those makers
who had good storage and boiling capacity
lost very little sap. Frequently there is an all
day and night run when much sap will be
wasted by reason of overflow. The sap
has been unusually sweet this year and
the quality of sugar and syrup has never
been finer The amount of lime deposit
has been much less than is common, and
especially much less than last year. Mrs.
c. C. Goodell has shipped 450 pounds to
New Mexico. +. l. Lane buys a large
amount supplied by number of makers,
and good deal of syrup goes to Mr.. Locke

Call on the War Dogs.

The heat which two of the state papers
are trying to develop in their discussion of
the gubernatonal question has an amusing
side for those who have watched the course
of events in the canvass for the nomination
which is now in progress, and who accept
the situation without personal prejudice
or feeling. 1t is one of the times when
there is no occasion for anything but cool
blood and good temper. 1t is difficult for
a man whose digestion is reasonably good
to think of any reason for shying stones,
or for saying unkind things about anybody.
Major Josiah Grout of Derby and Speak
erW. w. Stckney of Ludlow are both max
ing the best canvass they know how for the
Republican nomination for governor, and
both have earnest friends who are putting
in effective and confident work for them.
Both men have a good record, both are un-
usually well versed in the affairs of the state,
and either would fill the governors chair
competently and creditably. So much as
this every fair-minded man must admit
When we go step further and look for
ward to the day when Orleans county
comes into the state convention with a
united delegation, presents an argument
in behalf of Major Grout's superior years
and wider experience, and then adds:
"Gentlemen of the convention, in all the
years of Vermont's historyas a state Orleans
county has never had governor, while
Windsor county has had four; we ask you
to nominate Major Grout, we suspect
that the plea will be successful and the
request will be granted. And those who
vote for Maj, Grout will not abate any of
their good will for Mr. Stickney in doing so.
In giving the nomination to Maj. Grout
recognition and preferment will be confer
red on one whose army record will win
him the support of the veterans. In prac-
tice at the bar Maj Grout proved himself a
good lawyer. He has served six terms in
the legislature, three of them as speaker OF
the house. For Is years past he has prided
himself most of all on being good farmer,
and has devoted himself to practical work
in that occupation. The essential thing is
that he is a good all-round Vermonter, and
that is strong endorsement for any man.

the Vermont senator as hale in body, clear,
sound and vigorous in intellect and esteem
ed by his brother senators and the country.
1t was voted, as a mark of respect, that
the text of the prayer be inserted in the
Congressional Record. Senators then
crowded around the venerable Vermonter
to tender their congratulations. He proved
his vigor and his interest in legislation by
giving notice that on Thursday he would
speak on the necessity for additional quar-
ters for the national museum. A recep-
tion was given at the senator's home on
Thomas circle during the evening and the
usually quiet parlors were filled to over
