The Fire Alar m

Whenever there is a failure to get
water promptly at Il fire (Which
happily Ia seldom the case) there ia
bound to be a question as to why
the alarm was not promptly received
1T the water station, aud II 1t was
promptly received why pressure was
not promptly to be had. Now the
unfortunate condition is that the
city ia dependent on the same COM
pany to keep the alarm system In
working order that it depends upon
to receive and respond to the alarm.
The company doesn't: want to- have
charge OF the alarm system: and the
city doesn't want 1t to. Heretofore
the city has been unable to get any
one elise to care for the alarms, and
HIS consequently been unable to
comply with the company's request
to be relieved from the responsibility.
Those who are so anxious to find
fault with the Electric & Water COM
pany will confer afay!Or AN all:eOn-
cerned If they will devise some means
to get alarms to the water station
without the services of the Electric
&,Water company. ~: ~

The Vermont Election,

Our unprecedented victory is in one
sense party triumph. The campaign
was conducted by the republican or
ganization, the republican platform
represented the principles that were
vindicated, and the winning ticket was
the ticket of the Grand Old Party.
But, in another sense, our election has
a far greater significance. 1t means
more even than the triumph of sound
money over debased money, or of ma
tional integrity over reputation. 1t
points to nothing less than the triumph
for a second time of our system of gov
ernment over forces that threaten It's
very existence. 1t means that now. as
in 1861, country is so much dearer than
party or any selfish consideration that,
in an emergency which is believed 10
threaten the government itself, large
majority of the people, irrespective of
party, will be found on the right side.
1t is vindication of the confidence
placed by Jefferson and Lincoln in the
average judgment of the great mass of
the American people on questions of
government. In the early days of the
war, Lincoln was asked by delegation
of clergymen to emancipate the slaves
that holy purpose might be given to
the war. He replied, Constitutional
government is at stake, a fundamental
idea going down about IA deep as any
thing" The same issue was before
the voters of Vermont on September l ,
for the Chicago platform contained in
EQUITIES more threatening than national
and private reputation and bankruptcy.
The probability of the election of

For Speaker---W, A. Lord.

As a candidate for the speakership
of the House, W. A. Lord, Esq, pos
sesses qualifications that should make
him the choice of the representatives
of the next legislature, and the hearty
and influential endorsement he has al
ready received from different portions
of the state leads us to believe his can
didacy will be successful. Able, fair,
candid, man who knows men and is
thoroughly familiar with parliamentary
procedure, he is exceptionally equipped
for the delicate and exacting duties of
the speakership. No one took higher
rank than Mr.. Lord in the house of
1894, of which be was one of the lead.
ers. During the recent campaign he
contributed very effectively by his eff
forts on the stump to swell the repub.
lican majority in the state. Those who
know him, and especially those who
know him best, have never been known
to damn him with faint praise, but
recognize him as a man of great and
ready resources and We y high degree
of ability. His frmness and honesty
are commensurate with his other adj
mirable qualities. Washington county
has hitherto had no speaker-a thing
that, we trust, cannot be said after the
first Wednesday in October.

Mckinley and Hobart in November,
furnished by Vgrmonps stupeudous
majority, should bring relief to the
lovers of constitutional government
everywhere. We believe it was Mac
aulay who, in a critical study of the
weaknesses of our form of government,
dwelt especially upon the dangers of
popular sovereignty. His great mind
was not illuminated by the lamp of ex-
perience in thus criticising at that time
our institutions. Happily for us, every
fresh experience teaches that great
people in great crisis will discharge a
weighty responsibility with patriotism
and intelligence.

Obituary.

WNsHIP.-Died in West Medford, Mass ,
Sept. /, Lewis r. Winship, aged thirty-one
years, nine months and four days. The above
item will be read with sadness by the many
friends and acquaintance which the de-
ceased made while residing in Washington
Although of retiring disposition, he was
pleasant friend and schoolmate. His
parents moved to Massachusetts when he
was about eighteen, and he entered the
employ OF Coleman, Mead & Co. (now
Langley, Burr " Coz where he labored
faithfully for eight years, being promoted
many times, and finally leaving for a much
better position. Since then he has filled
number of good positions as salesman and
has always received the trust and conf.
dence of his employers. He was a person
who was always glad to sec and meet
friends, and particularly the friends he
made in his younger days. II is with deep
regret and sorrow that we read of his death
at time when he seemingly had years Of a
pleasant, profitable life in view.

The Grand Army Encampment,


With true Western hospitality, the
people of st. Paul last week welcomed
to their midst the representatives. ofthe
Grand Army of the Republic who gath
cred there for the annual national en-
campment. The sympathy and interest
of all classes of people in st. Paul were
enlisted, and they We'd with each other
in the common purpose OF honoring
the veterans who wore the blue and
fought for the honor of the flag. The
best the city had was laid before the
heroes of the Civil War, and her doors
were thrown wide open for their enter
tainment. These annual encampments
revive the memory of the bitterest con-
flict in the history of this country and
teach the children who shared in the
entertainment of the veterans at ST.
Paul more of the real spirit of the
Grand Army of the Republic than could
ever be taught in the public schools.
These annual gatherings also remind
the people of this country that it is be-
cause of the services of these veterans
that we belong to a great and united
people-a people whose national life
goes far below the surface, and a pee
pie who will accept no blemish on the
national honor The founder of the
Grand Army of the Republic could
never have foreseen the great benefits
which the people outside of the organ
ization would derive from it in the
years of the future, nor of what value
it must always become to the unborn
sons and daughters of Liberty. Since
Lee surrendered his sword to Grant at
Appomattox Court House, new gen.
Grafton has arisen. Should the battle
call of liberty be sounded to day, it
would be answered by men who had
not seen the light of day when the
first gun was fired on Fort Sumter.
The work of the veterans has passed
into history, and their annual gather
ings are becoming more and more
"reminiscences and greeting from the
past. The bending forms, the fur
rowed cheeks, the tottering steps and
whitened heads, of the veterans who
marched in the grand parade at ST.
Paul last Thursday gave saddening
and painful evidence that not many
years would elapse before these annual
encampments of the Grand Army of
Republic will be a thing of the past.
1t is gratifying to note that, in the re-
ception given the veterans in the grow
ing metropolis of the West last week,
there was no distinction of persons. 1t
was the soldier, titled or untitled, who
was welcomed. While prominent and
distinguished veterans who gathered
there were awarded their full measure
of personal honor in the ceremonies of
the week, it was the common soldier.
rich or poor, high or low, saint or
sinner, the man who shouldered his
gun in the COS and bore the brunt of
the battle, who received the heartiest
and most cordial welcome.

The Voice OF Vermont.

The first battle of the fall campaign
in the northern states was fought in
Vermont yesterday, aud the popocrats
were beaten, horse, foot and artillery.
AT the hour of writing only few local
returns have come to hand, but these
are sufficient to show that the honest
farmers of the Green Mountain State
have trampled the Chicago platform ia
the dust and buried the free coinage of
silver under a republican majority of
enormous dimensions. Boston Herald.

"SMALLEY has gone to Europe, and

is the terse and contentious way in
which a prominent democrat of Bur-

Vermont election.
