Gov. Grout issued the following procla-
nation Wednesday:
Whereas, a state of war exists between
the United States and the Kingdom Of
Spain and the president has called upon
this state to furnish troops to assist in Sc
curing peace,
Whereas, also patriotic men at the sacri-
fee OF personal interest and duty to family
and home, with commendable promptness
are responding to this call,
Therefore. I, Josiah Grout, governor Of
the state of Vermont, Fdoshereby by virtue
of the constitution il this behalf summon
the members of the senate and house Of
representatives to meet at Montpelier in
their respective chambers in the state
house together with the officers of the two
houses on Thursday, the 9th day of May,

then and there measures may be considered
authorizing and providing funds for the
equipment, subsistence aud transportation
of such soldiers as shall be furnished by
Vermont to meet the presidents call and
any future call he may make during said

compensation additional to the United
States pay such soldiers will receive, ant

ganization OF the national guard OF thi
s"ate.

VIII Invade Cuba.

A Washington dispatch says: President
Mckinley is preparing for an early inva-
sion OF Cuba. Since the declaration Of
war the condition Of the starving thousands
on that island has become deplorable. The
supplies furnished by the United States
government and its people have been appro-
priated by the Spanish troops and the con-
dition OF the reconcentrados has grown
worse with each passing day. Speedy
action is imperative if the United States in
tends carrying its humanitarian idea into
operation before the determination of those
whose condition has SO appealed to the
sympathies Of the country. The president
appreciates the situation and will send
troops to Cuba as soon as arrangements
can be completed.
The first movement will not be one OF
direct invasion or have its primary purpose
in seeking an engagement with the Spanish
forces. 1t will be to prepare the way for
supplies to be sent into the country, by
force if need be. Regiments are now be-
ing formed to carry out this campaign.
The forces will consist of regiments of cav
airy and of southern troops who are sure Of
immunity from yellow fever. Advices
have been received from New Orleans that
10000 of these immunes, the number
wished by the president, can be enlisted in
that city alone"

Price of Flour.

The price of -four is soaring upward and
indications are that it will continue to soar,
possibly until peace is again Established.
Shortage in the wheat supply is reported
from most of the European countries, and
the visible supply in this country is II. .o0o,-
600 bushels less than at this time last year.
This years crop in some of the south
American countries is reported good but
the surplus has already been bargained for
by European countries. A small crop and
the prospect of prolonged war will both
tend to keep the price Of -four at high
figure.

Judge Powers Gets a Rap.

There is no occasion tor any of the news
papers up the state to attempt to saddle all
the odium of this wretched patent-medi-
cine-p portrait advertising business on to
"the Grouts." II our memory serves us
(and we think it does) one of the earliest
offenders in this cheap-John trade was the
expansive phiz Of man who was graduated
not so very many years ago from the
supreme bench of the state to the house Of
representatives at Washington -Brattle-
boro Phoenix.
This is plain language and to the point.
The argument is that of those in high
places "the Grouts" are not the only ofen-
ders, for all alike are guilty of receiving
profits from "cheap-John trade"
