Some days ago the Clipper addressed a
letter to Col. Smith of st Adams asking
him if he felt at liberty to pledge himself
not to furnish his photograph or to give
a testimonial of great benefits received to
any patent medicine company during his
term of Office, if nominated and elected
governor. Up to date of going to press
no answer has been received, and the
worst is feared. Col. Smith may not re-
alize it, but this is a serious matter. 1t
is one In which the rank and file of the
people are vitality interested. They will
not take any more chances in this line.
Col. Smith must either give the people
the desired assurance, or the worst posi-
BILE construction will be placed upon his
silence. The issue must be met.-Bur-

A Nomination..

EDITOR REGISTER-In the matter of
county offices, during the past twenty
six years Bridport has had one senator,
the late Marshal Smith, in 1872, and the
following associate Judges; The late IL,
n. Sollace in 1880, j. j. Crane in 1883 and
the present incumbent, @. II. Walker, in
1896 Col. A. a. Fletcher removed from
his native town, Bridport, in 1881 to
Middlehury. He was elected to the sen
ate in 1892. During the period Cornwall
has had for her share of the pie two as
sociate judges, Henry Lane in 1881 and
w. II. Bingham in 1890.
BY these indisputable facts it VIII be
seen that Bridport has had a large pre-.
pOnderance in this bestowal. Cornwall
suitably recognized the services of her
fallen heroes by the erection of the mon
ument in 1868 which stands in Central
Park. The large vote she always casts
for the Republican ticket is proYerbial.
A large number of the citizens of Corn
wall would like to see the name OF
Edward o. Porter, NJ. D., presented for
the nomination of senator at the next
Republican county convention. DR.. Por-
ter was surgeon of the 18th Regiment
during the late unpleasantness. He bore
the message of the people of Cornwall at
the capitol in 1876. The son of a gen
tleman who sat in both the lower
and upper houses of our legislature
he is man of ability, possessed of q
courteous bearing, fearless in the advo
cacy of what he considered right, re
mnder of Cornwall in her pristine days

1t Is interesting because of the three let
tiers it contains from men now more or
less prominent in Vermont politics. OF
these three letters Mr.. McCullough's un-
questonably appears the best. For al
though not entering into the ranks of
those who have fixed opinions in regard
to a moral issue, and strive to influence
the community in what they believe to
be right, it is an exceedingly candid and
fair statement of willingness to act as
the people shall appear to desire, and as
such reflects the ability of its author
Mr.. CIRCUITS letter is not of serious con-
sequence to the people of the state at
this time.
Mr.. Smiths declares against prohibit
ton, as state law, and evidently favors
in part or in whole the license sys-
ten. In this we do not believe Mr.
Smith voices the sentiment of Vermont,
which we believe to be unquestionably
opposed to the open sale of liquor, limited
only by payment of license. In saying
this we include every class of our citizen
ship, and especially that very large class
of industrious workers upon our farms
and in our factories, the Drawn and
muscle of the state, developed by labor,
farmers and artisans. The great body
of these workers, in whom rests and
must always rest the glory of the com
monwealth, are temperate as well as In
dustrious. The two qualities generally
90 together, and Mr.. Smith, we feel as
sured, will find them unalterably opposed
to any system which will increase the
sale of liquor, or temptation to buy it,
On the other hand we cannot disguise
the fact that the present law in our
larger towns does not work satisfactorily.
And 1t is quite possible that a new law,
modelled after the now far famed
Swedish law, would work better. The
bottom principle of this Swedish law,
now in successful operation in several
southern and western states, is its pro
hibiting individuals from making a liv-
ing or making money by selling liquor.
Agencies are appointed where liquor can
be bought, but whatever profits there
are go to the city or state.
Rules regulating sales are not so strict
as in our law, but it is not permitted that
any liquor should be drunk upon the
premises where it is sold. Nor is it sold
to habitual drunkards, or on holidays,
nor after certain hours. Otherwise
citizens can buy what they want or can
pay for. But it is found that by this
system sales are reduced to minimum,
and Illicit sales disappear almost OF
quite entirely. The results Of this law
wherever tried have been most beneficial
to the cause of temperance.
Vermonters will not be opposed to a
fair discussion of the temperance ques
ton, taking necessary time for such dis
cussion; but they do not propose tt
Jump from the frying pan into the fire
| They want no license or other system
+ which enables the lazy and more un
principled part of the community tt
make money or get their living from thu
!, sale of liquor. Vermont is emphatlcally
! and unalterably temperance state.
