The Vermont watchman. [volume] (Montpelier, Vt.) 1883-1911, 1898-04-20

AN alleged correspondent of the ST.
Johnsbury Ne'Os, who may or may not
be the editor of the Bradford Opinion,
or some henchman of his, does not
seem to be satisfied with the WATCH
MAN, primarily because this paper re.
Gently published a communication from
Orange county in which John B. Peck
EFT, Esq, of Bradford, was suggested
for the east side Senator from that
county, and the WATCHMAN express
ed its commentator of Mr.. Peckett's
candidature. incidentally the "corre-
spondent" remarks that the WATCH
MAN never could tell the truth, and
that "it always comes the nearest it
when it attempts the opposite" This
may be piece of maudlin humor, or
an attempt at sarcasm, or if intended
for truth may be subject to some de-
auctions. AT all events, the syntax is
Parkerian. Now, the Opinion editor is
himself rival aspirant for the office of
Senator. His judgment Of Mr.. Peck
EFT, whether expressed by himself or
his mouthpiece, may not, therefore, be
strictly impartial, and it is clear that
the mental or constitutional limitations
or infirmities of the correspondent
whoever he may be-do not make him
competent judge of truth and fact.
His communication is devoted almost
exclusively to an effort to show that
what the WATCHMAN said about Mr..
Peckett's "growing law business" is
not true. When the fog rises from the
correspondents" faculties, and he is
in condition to read and understand,
he may discover that the WATCHMAN
has said nothing whatever about Mr..
Peckett's law business, "growing" or
otherwise; that he has simply been
setting up a man of straw and has tum-
bled over the image. The moral of
this incident is-well, the Republicans
of Orange county can draw it them
selves, as they no doubt have already
done, or will in their next county con-
VentiOn.

Why, Indeed |!

The Essex Record is endeavoring to start
a boom for o. M. Barber of Arlington for
State auditor at the coming election. One
or two other papers are helping the boom
along. Now not solitary reason can be
given for a change in this office that will
not apply with equal force to the treasury
ship. Why remove one incumbent and re-
tain another? If another term is to be grant
ed to Mr.. Field as treasurer on account of
faithful services" the present auditor, Mr..
Hale, is entitled to retention in his place.
Why not continue State officers from gov
ernor down in their respective positions for
life, provided they fill one term acceptably2
The plea for retaining Mr.. Field leads di-
rectly to demand for life tenure in Office
principle directly antagonistic to Repub-
lican ctrne.-Landmark.
The contemporary queries are we'll
put. There is no reason, in any of the
existing circumstances, why Mr.. Field,
the State treasurer, should be retained
in Office another term and Mr.. Hale,
the State auditor, should be removed.
There is absolutely no reason why
either of these officers should be de-
MED a denomination and election, and
the strongest possible reason why each
should be continued in Office another
term. There would be no question of
a reappointment if they were officers of

He Is In "Dead Earnest"
The Herald and NesDs of Randolph

The Herald and NeDs of Randolph
says:
Hon. Homer W. Wallis withdrawal leaves
bnt two candidates for the lieutensnt.gov-
ernorship. Henry G. Bates of st. Johnsbury
and DR.. Henry d. Holton Of Brattleboro.
The latter is said to be not more than half
in earnest. and the probabilities are strong
that the next state ticket will be Smith and
Bates, nominated by reclamation.
On the contrary, DR.. Holton is en-
tirely in earnest. When it became
know that Mr.. Vail, who was the last
hope of farmer. candidate for lieuten-
ant governor, declined to enter the
canvass, DR.. Holton yielded to the
solicitations of his friends in all parts
of the State and consented to enter the
canvass as an avowed and active candi-
date for the Office of lieutenant COVER
nor. The announcement of his can
didature has been most formally re-
ceived, as many letters from leading
Republicans on either side of The
mountains, from Canada line to Massa-
chusetts, attest. DR.. Holton is in the
contest to stay-and evidently to win.
He is instantly recognized as the man,
without deduction or qualification, that
supplies all the requirements, practical
or theoretical, immediate or prospective,
contemplated in the Office of lieutenant
governor. The probabilities at this
writing are strong that the second
name on the State ticket will be Ho.ton,
and that it will be placed there after a
spirited but good natured contest, by
the votes of large majority of the
delegates to the Republican nominal
ing convention.

Death OF Joel l.. Mead.

Joel L. Mead died at Oshkosh, Wis, on
Wednesday, April 10. Mr.. Mead was native
of Montpelier, brother of Captain A. A.
Mead and Mrs. Harry Boutwell,, late of this
city and James Mead of Sheboygan, Wis
x Mead s s Sf hs s s had Of H ns SS
its growth for half a century. The Oshkosh
Times contained the following appreciatiye
notice Of the aged pioneer.
1.-THE life history of the old gentleman whose
career came to an end yesterday afternoon is
interesting and valuable as an example of what
do in the struggle here below. MIR. Mead was
a man who entered the battle of life with moth
ing but that courage which urges men on to
success and supports them in adversely. He
was in the truest sense self-made man.
Joel Mead was born in Montpelier, VT,
September %, 1918. He came west in 1843
and settled in Illinois where he worked for a
brick manufacturer. A few years later he
was: joined by his brother-in-law, the late
Sylvester Ripley, and partnership which
proved to be one OF the most remarkable on
record was formed For fifty years the affairs
of these two men were linked together, and
they spent the greater portions of their lives
sharing each others joys and sorrows.
The first venture of Ripley e Mead was in
threshing. 1t was successful, and in 1916 they
farms in the town Of Vinland Fortune smiled
upon them as tillers of the soil and after two
years of farm life they came to Oshkosh where,
side by side, in every particular they lived and
died. The first business venture of Ripley &
Mead in this city was the purchase of a saw
mill ON Jackson's point. The firm was en-
gagged in the manufacture of lumber, logging
during the winter, and in dealing in pine lands
till 1884 when the members retired from active
business.
Joel Mead and deacon" Ripley were part
ners for "a years, and during their joint bust
ness career never had a settlement. They
held all their possessions in common and lived,
as a near relative puts it, tout of the same
flour barrel" Even their homes We're owned
jointly, and each had such implicit confidence
in the other that they went through life hand
in hand with no differences to mar union
such as is seldom seen among men.
Mr.. Mead was married to Mary Ripley at
Montpelier, Vt. Six children blessed the
union, three of whom survive, Frank Mead
and Mrs. John Stanhilber, of this city, and
Mrs. George Happ of ST. Joseph, Mich. De-
ceased was kind and charitable. He gener.
onsly helped the poor, and this was done out
of true Christian charity. No one knew how
much he did in this direction. In business
circles, his word was as good as his bond. For

CHARLES b. JOHNSON, former resident
Of Montpelier, died last week at his home
in Oconomowoc, Wis, aged seventy-eight
years. The Free Press of that city con-
tains an apprecistive notice of Mr.. John
son, and of his prosperous business career.
His wife died four months ago, and since
that time Mr.. johnson has been anxious to
follow her. He was born in Berlin, and
was, for many years engaged in the sad
dlery and harness business in Montpelier, a
business that he followed during his resi-.
dence in Oconomowoc. Mr. and Mrs. John
son were prominent members OF the Metho-
dist church during their residence in Mont
peler, and few yet remain in this city
who have pleasant personal recollections

A RuMBLINa, crashing sound at four
o'clock last Saturday morning awakened
people living near Montpelier Junction.
An investigation of the cause Of the COM
motion revealed the fact that the sixty foot
highway bridge that spanned Dog river on
Berlin side, and that was adjacent to the
Central Vermont railroad bridge, had
tumbled into the stream. This bridge had
been crossed on Friday by many heavily
loaded teams, and an investigation of its
condition showed that it was only provi-
dence that prevented a more serious disas-
ter. The eastern abutment was entirely
undermined and how the structure sus-
tanned the weight of the loads Of logs and
lumber that crossed it Saturday is a mys-
| terry. The bridge is total wreck, and
must be replaced by an entirely new one.
In the meantime travel on that side of the
river is seriously Inconvenience

The Situation.

The course of events following the
submission of the Presidents message
to Congress and the Chief Executives
relinquishing to that body the respon-
sibility for the further efforts to solve
the Cuban question is told on page
three of this issue of the WATCHMAN.
In the Senate the ebb tide of oratory
came on Saturday evening. A quin-
tette of senatorial Horatii-Hoar of
Massachusetts, Hale of Maine, Spooner
of Wisconsin, White of California and
Caffrey of Louisiana-for days had held
the bridge that spanned the stream be-
tween amending talk and heroic action.
To the first of the resolutions reported
to the Senate, (see page three) was
added, on motion of Senator Turpie,
the following recognition of the indie.
pendence of the Cuban republic;
"And that the government of the United
States hereby recognizes the republic of
Cuba as the true and lawful government of
that island"
This amendment was adopted by a
vote of 81 to 81. On the motion of
Senator Davis, Republican of Mime
sofa, chairman of the foreign relations
committee, the resolutions were further
amended by adding the following:
Fourth-That the United States hereby
disclaim any disposition or intention to ex-
ercise sovereignty, jurisdiction or control
over said island except for the pacifcation
thereof; and assert its determination when
that is accomplished to leave the govern

poration, requiring efficient and faithful |
service and duly approaching the value
of experience. Why should there be
in the case of the State2 None, what
ever. The difference is simply in the
fact that in the business association
there is no politics; in the affairs of
the State selfish political considerations
enter. One man on the outside gets
up combine with another, and the two
ally their forces for the purpose of put
ting the ins out and themselves in,
without any regard to the customs or
principles that prevail in well managed
business affairs. And there are always
some newspapers, for one considera-
ton or another, that are ever ready 10
aid and abet this sort of thing.
With a suggestion of petulance in
its tone the Landmarks asks, "Why not
continue State officers in their respec-
tive positions for life, provided they
gil one term acceptably2" and the
contemporary processes to see ga de
mand for life tenure in office, in the
plea for retaining Mr.. Field" To a
person having the jaundice, it is said
all things appear yellow. The con-
temporary's vision is, possibly, not in
its normal condition, and he does not
see things in their true light, from the
fact that he has a candidate for the Of
flee OF State treasurer, and his judy
ment is colored by his purpose to get
Mr.. Field out and Mr.. Bacon in.
Probably the directors of the White
River Junction national bank would
be glad indeed if they could be assured
of life tenure of the Office of cashier
of that institution by the young man
who has served them acceptably in
that Office, not only one, but many
more terms. Least of all would they
think Of making change, of their
own motion, while Mr.. Bacon is in
the prime of his bodily and mental
powers, in the meridian of his use
fulness, by reason of his accumulat-
ed experience and acquaintance with
the banks customers. There would
be risk in making change, and
the bank would not voluntarily take
that risk. The stockholders would
"jump on them" if they did, for any
such reasons as those the Landmark
and its fellow editors are now giving
for making change in the Office of
State treasurer, and particularly at a
time when all the signs point to en-
larged duties and increased RESPONSE
bility that will come with war to
which the State must contribute her
part.
The trouble with the Landmark is
that it does not discriminate between
''life tenure" when mans eye grows
dim with age and his mental force is
abated, and the tenure of Office by men
who are in the prime of life, alert,
virile, with minds trained for their
work and equipped by useful expert
ence. These are the kind of men who
are now in the offices of State treasurer,
secretary of State and State auditor.
This talk OF ''life tenure" in connec-
ton with the question of retaining the
services of these men in Office for an
other term, when the State will need
the best service it can command, is
what man who had an apt way of
characterizing some things used to call
"gabble on knoll"
