VERMONT went republican Tuesday by
39,O93, the largest majority ever given for
thst party. Though the RAIDS and eoltlng
democrats are making great ado over It,
there is no more significance in the re-
suit than attaches to that in Alabama. II
went democratic the other day by over
10000, as she always does, and now Yer
mont goes republican as she always does.
The people of the Green Mountain State
have no better sense than to vote that
ticket, even if the issues Of the campaign
had been properly presented to them.
The republicans concentrated their effort
to carry the State, and had all OF their
best speakers in the campaign. The
democrats knew that the Dutch would
take Holland anyway and made no espe-
cial effort. The Courier-Journsl gleeiul-
" remarks that the result drives nal
into Bryan's coffin, but the wish is the
father to the thought. As goes Vermont
one year 80 goes Vermont another year
but it has never been said that as Yer.
mont goes 30 goes the Union.

also spoke, in fact everybody spoke who
could get chance, except Billy Brock

Zack Phelps, Of Louisville, beat Hind
man and Browder for National commit
teeman from Kentucky. The ticket most
talked Of is Palmer and Buckner, the
former, until few years ago a republic
can, and the latter a mighty good man

more service to either party and too old
for the realization OF much more ambi-

women not beautiful. It is because they need to have their blood purified and invigoratd by the use of Ayers Sarsaparilla-that good old medicine which not only has stood the test of half century, but was alone consid- cred worthy of exhibition. by the Worlds Fair Commissioners, out of all the preparations purporting ito be blood purifiers and nerve tonics. It is fact, we'll known to medical men and testified to by thousands that the effect of using this medicine is to inn part strength ito the muscles, vigor to the mind, brightness to the eye, bril- liance to the skin, and bloom to the cheek. What more can be desired? Ayers Sarsaparilla does this for oth- efs, it will do so for you It does this by driving out of the velns and arteries every particle of diseased blood and filling them with pure and vigorous circulation. This is the secret both of beauty and of health.

As the time approaches for the co1

As the time approaches for the con- vening of the National Republican con- vention, interest in the so-called con- test from Arizona increases. Not that the result will affect Mckinley, for he is already the same as nominated; but the Republicans of Arizona are inter ested in the outcome because upon it depends the future success of the party. If cabal of kickers by system of contests can defeat the will of the party there is no use for party organization. In the St. Louis contest from Arizona the delegation consisting of Akers, Ford, McCord, Wright, Darlington and Cleveland is so clearly entitled to seats and so clearly represent the Republi- cans of Arizona that it seems hardly possible that the contestants will be recognized. If the Mckinley Stoddard delegation is seated nine tenths of the Republicans of Arizona will have been ignored.

NONE BUT AYERS AT THE

Ayers Sarsaparilla enjoys the ex- traordinary distinction of having been the only blood purifier allowed an ex- hibit at the Worlds Fair. Chicago. Manufacturers of other sarsaparilas sought by every means to obtain a showing of their goods, but they were all turned away under the application of the rule forbidding the entry of patent medicines and nostrums. The. decision of the Worlds Fair authori- ties in favor of Ayers SarsapariIla was in effect as follows: Ayers Sarsapa- rilla is not patent medicine. It does not belong to the list of nostrums.

White dress goods material which is suitable for summer wear is hard to obtain. Of course plenty of these goods, such as they are, can be purchased at almost any store, but ladies with good taste want goods that don't look cheap and shoddy and will really wash and retain the same appearance after wards. The Alkire company has given this line special attention this year, and they have no doubt been amply rewarded, as their sales have been enormous They are daily receiving new goods in this line and will con tinue to be headquarters for the best.

oN THE HIGHEST AUTHORITY

Ii is now gwen out oA Ine '' highest authority" that nothing wnat- soever of public interest occurred on .be occasion of Senator Quay's visit to Major Mckinley; that there was mercy an interchange of sentiment, in most cordial way. concerning the polltlcal si+,at;on at the time-that was all' .rbare can be but two very highest au- tborities in the case, and as this lh- formation comes from Washington anu not from Canton, it necessarily 1ol- lows as a matter approaching the cer- +ain+v of fact that it was Mr. Quay hinsolf who is authority for the pup Hcation.
 Incidental to the main statement IL is said that the Pennsylvania senator did perhaps, give the next president direct assurance that if the vote of nls e4o+e should he necessary to make Mo Kinlev's nomination sure he shoulu have it. And it is also a part of the authorized version of the 1nterVle" that the visitor discussed the conouct of some of the opponents of Mckinley and that he expressed "the same opln- ion of Platt's performance that ne Has exnressed to twenty persons in wash ;neton." It is very well, of course, as nolitical maneuvering goes, to pfeluue all this with the assertion that notnlns of nub,ic interest occurred during the visit but that which follows is the very essence of what the public were interested in..
 Senator Quay is not regarded as oi inc same stripe in political life as those with. whom he has been assoclateo Ill the preliminary contest which came to a close two weeks ago. His mana gerial, tactics have not been open to inc criticisms which have followed the course of MT. Platt and General Clarkson. He is always an intense partisan, but never a destructlonlst' when he has made mistakes he has been found to have the courage to make all the acknowledgement due and the manliness to correct them. Ills present following in Pennsylvania IS largely made up of those who but year or so ago were his bitterest fac tional enemies.
 It should not be made matter for adverse comment that such man should go to Mckinley on being con- yinced that he was the choice Of the people for the presidency, and that nc other name would be seriously consld- cred in the National convention. Noi is it any discredit to him that he did go. instead of hanging back in fit o1 the sulks in the vain hope that Major Mckinley would come to him.

In Iceland the natives are very fond of snuff. It is made into bars after the manner of plug tobacco and sold in that shape.
