Children of the Sums Enjoy the Delights
of Maintain Homes

OF Mountain itpuf~.
MARSHALL. VA. July Especial
The good people of Fauquier have Just
now put I'm operation a splendid work OF
charity. by which number of children
OF the poor OF Baltimore are taken from
the close and heated tenements OF the
city and given an outing Of two weeks
in the pure air of our mountains and
valleys.
A society i'm tho Monumental city COM
municated with the pastor OF the Metho-
dist church here the desire 10 give the
children this trip. and he put the mat
ter i'm the hands OF the Epworth League.
which appointed as committee Misses
Duncan and Spcidcn 10 make a canvass
of .he neighborh0Od. The people OF the
Methodist congregation alone were called
on. and responded nobly, nearly every
householder taking from one TO four Of
the little ones, with the result that a
train arriving a few days ago brought
one car almost entirely filled with chill
drcn to enjoy this magnificent hospi-
tality.
The whole neighborhood was at the
depot 20 meet them, and it was a beau
tful sight TO see the little tots, with
beaming. bright sunny 4 ces. pouring
out OF the car into ne arms Of The equally
happy children shat c-tne u welcome
them.
Let The Times readers Just think
what this two-weeks' outing means to
these children. many OF whom never saw
a mountain or a pasture-field in all their
lives before.
Mr. Edward Tempieman died last week
at his home. near Orleans, i'm the ninety
seventh year of his age. lie was widely
known and highly respected in the coun-
ty and until few years ago had never
ridden on railroad tran.

FREE SILVER At CHICAGO.

Probably ex-Speaker Crisp is right
in his conjecture that the free silver
democrats at Chicago will not be CON
tent with having platform made to
their liking, but will insist upon hav
ing candidates to match. That is ra-
fighting temper they will not stop
short of the full usufruct, as Mr. Til
! den would have said, of their strength
in the party.
Although Mr.. Crisp does not sug-
| gest it, he would himself adorn such a
ticket, at least in the second place. A
ticket, let us say, of Boies and Crisp
would leave little to be desired from
the free silver point of view. It would
give full representation to the two
great divisions of the democratic free
silver cohorts. Tt might not be so very
pleasing in the East, but Western and
Southern democrats have a poor
opinion of the East, anyway, SO that
would not matter.
There are intimations, from appar
entity well-informed sources, that tine
free silver democrats will not only
bolt if they do not get all that they
want at Chicago, but that they have
arranged a more effective plan of
making their protest felt by fixing
things so that as largo as possible
number of. straight free silver men
shall be put on the Electoral ticket.
1t is intended that these electors, if
chosen, shall refuse to vote for the
democratic candidate if he is ''gold
bug" In Illinois, for example, the
state convention will not only nomi
nate delegates at large, but electors.
If these are free silver men, as the
leaders of that movement intend and
expect that they will be, the sound
money democrats of the state will
have to vote for men, who, if they
should be elected, would bolt the
democratic candidate if his currency
views were not satisfactory.
1t is clear, therefore, that the free
silver democrats will not exhaust
their resources in the contest at Chi
cago. If they are defeated there,
which now seems highly improbable,
they have in reserve this other ex-
pedient, which would be very de-
moralizing to party calculations

''No one need be in any doubt

of doubt. 1t stands for a reunited

DIR. J. A. GREENE A CANDIDATE.

DIR. +. A. Greene of Nervura fame
has political aspirations; he wants to
become the governor Of New Hamp-
shire. In published letter he says:
ssThe governorship of our Granite
state is certainly an exalted office of
trust and responsibility, and I cannot
regard the considerable spontaneous
mention that my name has had in
connection with it, as other than very
kindly and crediuable; and I am as
sured that there exists no reason
whatever why may not aspire mod
estly to the honor Of the high posi-
ton. I am in the contest to win, and
shall be found in the front ranks car
rying the banner for the protection of
American industries and labor and an
economical state of affairs"
We admire this style of doing. Dr.
Greene advertises and puts himself
before the public as one who seeks the
favor and patronage of the people,
promising to render an equivalent in
tine worth of his goods. In this mat
ter of politics he has the courage to
state what he wants and what he will
try to do. When all aspirants for Of
fee shall do here, as they do in many
parts of the country, put their own
names up and in print as DESTROYS of
political offices, it will show a cour-
age and manliness that will be COM
mendable. AS the custom now is the
fellow that is seeking a place whis-
pers it to few friends, gets them at
work, and skulks behind the bushes
himself. There will be a great deal
less lying and deception when the Of
flee seeker steps out frankly to the
front, and gives people opportunity
to shoot him or to support him. We
are for DIR. Greene.

LETTER FROM MASSACHUSETTS,.

| Dear Monitor Friends, = AS it has
been some time since have enjoyed a
personal visit with you, think per-
haps you might like to hear from me,
as [ hear from many of you every
| week through the MONITOR.
First of all we have been having
| beautiful weather this week Grass
is nice and green on the lawns and
early flowers are in full bloom; buds
are swelling on the trees andlevery
thing is about. like Vermont the last
of May. l have not had taste of
new maple sugar yet. How would
just like to get out in the woods for
day and get my fill of nice maple SUI
gar! Not that am getting sour, but
for old times sake sse6ius $50
We have been fortunate of late in
having received friendly calls from
some of our old Vermont friends, of
whom we mention J. p. Ellis, Rev. A.
Gregory and son, Charles Dwinell,
Carroll Davis, Nathan Hopkins. Geo.
Whitney and others. When we notice
y
friends have been in the metropolis
and have not made us a call, we feel
disappointed and do not know but
they are forgetting us, or do not re-
member just where we are located.
Remember % State St., Boston, where
the latch string is hanging out the
front door.
I see an occasional item in regard
to the band, land being connected with
one here, I can say. "keep up the
band!" 1t affords wholesome pleasure
and recreation for it's members and is
thing that, at least, gives .'tone" to
place or society. Be assured that
whatever tends to benefit lor give
credit to old Vermont, gives pleasure
to the large number of her sons and
daughters who have gone to other To-
calities. Truly, w. E. RANDALL.

State News Items.

The State prison directors held their
monthly meeting in Windsor last
Thursday. The contract for manu-
featuring shoes has been let to A. E..
Mann & Co., of Stoneham, Mass.
This contract will take effect May 1st,

the old contract and will be the means
of making the prison self supporting.
The direcUors-E. C.Tuttle of Rutland,
M. O. Perkins of Windsor and L. d.
Hazen of st. Johnsbury-deserve
great credit for the excellent manner
in which they have brought this con-
tract about, and it will meet the ap-
prevail of taxpayers throughout the
State. Brackett & Co., the old con-
tractors, have held the contract for
the past ten or twelve years.
Bradley D. Newell, known as the
ssblacksmith healer" Of Vermont. was
in Burlington recently, where he
treated many patients. He is repre-
sented as fine specimen of robust
manhood, 6 feet 2 inches in height,
weighing 24O pounds. He is modest
and does not claim that he is able to
heal everybody, and does not know
in what his power consists. His pa
tients experience a sensation not I'M
like that of battery of electricity.
Some, when his hands are placed on
them feel sens alton of heat where
his hands are placed. 1t seems that
he exerts some magnetic influence on
his patients. He has been most sue
cessful in healing those afflicted with
rheumatism.
