Knowing that several democrats were
elected from ST. ong republican towns, my
curiosity led me to examine the governor
vote in these several towns ] find only two
towns in the list giving majority for the
democratic nominee for governor. Glasten-
bury polled 3 republican and II democratic
votes; Colchester, III republican and 1Sl
democratic votes. The 20 opposition towns
polled 3,03l republican, / 1896 democratic,
and 1O8 scattering votes. On this basis it is
fairly demonstrated that the republicans
are responsible for the election of eighteen
of these twenty. This verfes the folly
of little family quarrels in the ranks
OF the republican party. The democrats
must feel very thankful for them, as
it is their only hope, in this state, for their
existence. 1t seems to me that this little
group would naturally feel quite lonely,
although l notice that Speaker Lord has
been quite liberal with them in making up
his committees. Now, l would suggest
that these twenty members organize two
base. ball clubs of nine each, electing the
members from Glastonbury and Colchester
captains of their respective mines, their
towns being the only ones in their group
giving democratic majority for governor
In applying little arithmetic to the re-
turns / find that eight of the largest towns
and cities polled IL 749 votes, an average of
1884 for each of their representatives; 237
towns averaging 239 each-a ratio of al
most one to seven. l find also that as of
the largest towns and cities polled 81 ,056
votes, or AL per cent of all the votes
polled, while the remaining 200 towns
poled .553 per cent, little more than one
half of the state vote / further fiud that
as OF the smaller towns polled BIO votes,
which is only .045 per cent of the total vote.
Four cities polled the following votes:
Burlington, 2714; Rutland, 2,186; Mont
pelier, ,2o4; Barre, 1,16S.
The larger towns polled; Bennington,
1,44l st. Johusbury, LILO; Brattleboro,
1883; st. Adams, 1,50i.
Essex county, ID towns, polled 1850
votes; Grand Isle county, towns, 706;
Lamoille county, 10 towns, . $50, making an
aggregate of Oil votes. The cities Of Bur
lington and Rutland, together, polled 4 800
votes almost equal to the total vote of the
three counties, with their % towns. You
will notice, further, that Burlington's vote,
2714, is almost equal to that of Lamoille's
10 towns, 1856.
But, to cap the climax of all the compari-
sons made, take the vote OF the election OF
the "Grand Old Man." Senator Morrill,, OF
last week. The town OF Glastonbury, polling
8 republican and II democratic votes, elect
ing democratic representative, note that
his vote with IA constituents behind him is
equal in power to the member from Bur
lngton, representing 2,7l4 voters, ratio OF
l to 1874, almost twenty times the ratio OF IL
to l.. Is this gospel on the square? Let your
own consciences answer. JOEL FOSTER.

A SPECIAL report from the state de-
partment, on the currency system of
the worlds greatest nations and their
relations to prices of all sorts of COM
modities, including human labor, is
timely and highly instructive. 1t shows
beyond the shadow of a doubt that
ffuctuating standards cause the greatest
loss to toilers; also that, in every coun-
try which has gold standard, the
tendency of wages has been steadily
upward and the cost of living has been
just as steadily lessened, while exactly
the reverse is true of the countries that
are upon silver basis. In Mexico
about the only people who receive what
would be considered even fairly good
wages in this country are those who
are specially skilled in the mechanical
branches, and most of them are natives
of the United States. These are cold
hard facts which cannot be refuted by

Mr.. FOSTERS analysis of the state
election returns shows very forcibly
how unequal and farcical is popular
sovereignty as applied to the constitu-
ton of the house of representatives.
His compariso ns strongly sustain the
ground taken by the WATCHMAN and
other state papers as to the unrepubli-
can character of the lower branch of
legislature. The two representatives
of the cities of Burlington and Rutland,
representing 1900 voters, are over
whelmed by the % representatives of
the towns of the three counties Mr..
Foster mentions, with an aggregate
vote of SOIL. In other words, in one
instance two representatives represent,
substantially, 900 voters ; in another
instance, twenty-eight representatives
represent another 5000 voters. This is
not single or exceptional case. The
system of representation by towns is
full of similar glaring Inconsistencies.
To remedy this unjust and unrepubli.
can system, an earnest effort should be
made in 1900, the constitutional time
when the Legislature may again con-
slider amendments to the fundamental
law of the state.

IT is not an easy matter for man
who has often been licked by another
man to keep his nerve up when he
knows that he has got to fight that man
again and get another licking. That is
just the condition of the popocratic
managers. They had been hoping to
escape the licking this time, but now
they know it is impossible, and yet they
have to keep up show of cheerful
ness and give out bulletins claiming that
they will win. When you are looking
for subjects for your pity, do not for
get the popocratic managers.

If anything was needed to give Ken
lucky to the republicans in the ap-
preaching election, it was furnished by
the popocratic hoodlums of Covington,
Friday night, when they egged Secretary
Carlisle. The indignity has aroused a
storm of indignation in Louisville and
elsewhere in the state, and it has had
the effect to stampede the Palmer Buck
ner votes to Mckinley. Bitterness is
added to this determination to vote the
republican ticket by the fact that the
egging of Carlisle was not a sudden
ebullltion of passion, but deliberately
planned outrage, for which preparation
was made in advance of the secretary 3
coming to Covington.
