The Stallion SwindIe Again.

At Westminster one of those ia.

auction last week for SAT. The com.
pany has already been twice assessed
for the keeping Of the horse, amount
ing to over $40.
The Barre, Berlin and Mortified
parties who have recently been sued
for three notes of 500 each, ARE rather
uneasy about their case. Each signer
of the notes is liable for the whole
amount Of the notes, and il is said
that several who hold 800 shares are
treating with the Limerick National
bank to allow them to pay the face
value OF the stock and be released
from all further obligations. There
is no doubt about the bunco part of
the game, which can be readily seen
by the decree in chancery served upon
Reynolds in similar proceedings in
Orange county and the working of
the scheme in other parts OF the state.
The Limerick National bank, which
is probably an innocent purchaser of
Reynolds notes, ordinarily takes this
action to save loss to itself.

The so-called Davis resolution, now

destined to fail of passage. Some
senator's oppose it not because they do
do not believe it correct in definition
but because they think it inexpedient

the administration has delicate

far the Monroe doctrine can be
stretched. 1t may be just as well to
leave it underlined. We shall certain

| When i newspaper presents to the
public the name of citizen III c0nnec'
ttion with some Office in the gift OF the
people, such action may have its OIL
gin in the PEI onal regard OF the edi'
for for him whose name is announced;
| II NAV arise from other motives; anu
lit may voice an almost unanimous
sentiment of its readers.
This last condition we think we ful-
fill in the name we bring forward, we
are persuaded it is one that will re-
ceiye the endorsement Of the freemel
of the state at large as that OF man
in every way worthy to become their
chief executive. We believe it is a
name that will awaken on echo in
every part OF the state where the man
and his services are familiar; and there
is no part of Vermont where both are
not known.
Although he may still be termed a
Young man, he has seen nearly a quar-
ter Of century Of public service, from
second assistant clerk OF the house OF
representatives in 1872 to its second
time speaker in 1894.
Entering public life as itssecond as
sistant clerk, his careful, painstaking
work readily secured his promotion to
first assistant; and continued faithful
discharge of duty made him the
unanimous choice for clerk when that
position became vacant in 1882. Ca
pable, courteous and affable, he has
commended himself to the good will
Of all with whom he came in contact,
with no effort to win appreciation
other than that which has arisen from
conscientious and never-failing fl
deity in the line of public duty.
After serving five successive sessions
his office of clerk was vacated by his
election to serve his town in 1892, when
he was the logical and only choice for
speaker, a position he filed to the ac-
ceptancc and satisfaction Of all. His
return as representative in 1894 was
all that was wanted for a unanimous
reelection to the speakership. 1t is
no disparagement of others to say that
the great saving to the state of an ex-
ira length of session in 1894 was in
large part due to his wise arrange
ment Of the legislative work, particu-
arly in the matter of reviewing the
work of statutory revision; and his
nstrumentality was generally recog-
lized and commended at that time.
He is certainly the choice OF large
number of citizens for governor of
heir state-a position his ripe expe-
fence in its affairs we'll qualities him
o fill. None can command success
ne certainly deserves it; and should he
'eceiye the gubernatorial nomination
lext June the people will have as
heir chief magistrate an economical
md wise administrator of their public
ltiairs in the person Of William w.

A Glance Abroad.

The European situation is still in
teresting. The Transvaal incident il
forgotten for the momentin the later
sensation, the reported Russo Turkish
alliance. 1t is announced on seeming
ly good authority that the car and
sultan have "pooled their issues" and
combined forces for the purpose of
check mating the other European ma
tons England in particular.
| Ii the new treaty is correctly re-
| ported, it binds each sovereign to sup
port the other in case of internal or
external troubles. In case of war
involving Russia, Turkey agrees to
let no armed vessels of Russia's antag-
onists pass the Bosporus to the Black
Sea, while Russia's vessels can freely
enter the Mediterranean through the
straits. Russia also gains the right to
assist in depressing turbulence in Tur-
key. AS will be seen, the gain is all
Russia's, but Turkey is supposed to
have preferred such an arrangement
to the ACKNOWLEDGMENT that would
otherwise be imminent.
The treaty is direct menace to
England Her Egyptian and Indian
interests are clearly threatened. A
few years ago she would have drawn
the sword at once, but now she is
more timorous. One by one her con-
tinental allies have left her until at
present she stands practically alone
against the world. Russia knows
that she can depend on the active sup
port of France in any of her moves
and probably of Germany, at least on
the neutrality of the Triple alliance.
The car is master to-day and
seems to be improving his opportu-
nifty. In his affair with Japan
whereby the latter was compelled to
recede from her claim to the Lilo Tung
peninsula; in his shrewd financial
deal with China whereby he secured |
a strong hold on the Chinese customs,
Us well as the goodwill of that govern
ment, and now in his latest com
whereby he has gained the mastery in
Turkey, the ear has proved himself
more than match for the diplomats

posed that the credit is due rather to
lis able minister, DeWittc, than to
himself. That the sultan has been
lefying England in the Armenian

tehouemeM makes everything clear
