ing and covering a large space on
both sides of the broad avenue which
by the bridge Pont de Jena, connects
with the Champ de Mars, and the
south side of the Seine. There are
nearly so buildings over which float
the flags of all nations. The French
and English colonies are well re-
presented and the whole day, yes a
week, could be proftably spent in
this section of the Exposition alone.
The whole world literally meets
here and all is peace.
An international exposition is
worth a dozen peace congresses.
China and Russia, England and the
Transvaal, the United States and
Spain, all jostle each other in friend
Iy mood on these few acres. The ex-
hibits contained in these various
buildings are most interesting, and
in variety and number they are be-
wildering. The buildings are them
selves types of architecture, peculiar
to the countries they represent, and
the national costumes of those who
are here to represent the different
countries. These features fascinate
you, as you move about in this min
nature world, and in a day here you
can easily imagine that you have
made the Tour du monde"
Algiers takes the place of honor
among the French colonies, and not
one question could you ask regard
ing Algeria, which could not be an
swered by study of the exhibits in
the two large buildings which re-
present that colony. Tunis, too, has
most interesting exhibit. We
know that city we'll, as twice year
in going and returning from Malta
we have day in that port, and
setting aside the interesting sur
roundings in which the city is set,
can hardly think of anything of
special or characteristic interest in
the old city near Carthage which you
would not see in this reproduction
at Paris. There are nearly 40
booths in which the Arabs are at
work, making everything tor which
Tunis is noted, and in one of the
little shops | saw one of the sharp
est of Arabs whom l had often seen
IN Tunis displaying his treasures in
the shape of rugs, and jewels and
inlaid mother of-pearl fabrics to a
party of interested Americans. From
Dahomy, Senegal, the Soudan, Ton
kin, Cambogia, Russia, Java,
Madagascar, the Transvaal, Mar
Unique, Brazil, Peru, Chill, and
France, are valuable contributions
to this huge museum. 1t is time for
lunch and the patience of your read
ers has been put to a severe test.
Next time | write you we will cross
the Seine and walk through the
groves on the south side.

A Late Discovery.

The Burlington Free Press has
made one more discovery of great
import-namely, that the chief con.
Germ OF Gen. CIRCUITS friends now is
to prevent ex.Gov. Dillingham; from
securing sufficient votes on the first
ballot in the legislature to ensure the
latter's election"
This latest discovery of our Bur
llngtOn contemporary is on a par
with some Of its previous political
finds. The Free Press may rest
easy. Gen. CIRCUITS friends have no
such concern as this. They are at
tendingl closely to his interests, and
getting ready to give him votes
enough on the first ballot to disap-
point the "anything-to.b beats" and
prove his strength among the people.
II the Free Press will take the trou.
BILE to get at some of the real facts in
connection with this senatorial con-
test, and present them in a fair and
manly way, it may possibly save a
duplication of its humiliating ex.
perience in its own congressional
district contest.

Comment on the Ross Letter.

1t is to be noticed that Senator
Jonathan Ross cordial approves OF
policy of the Franklin county Repub.
licans in refusing to instruct nom
1nees for state senator's as to how
they shall vote in the election of
United States senator. And vet
when this plan was proposed, the
Burlington Free Press shrieked from
the housetops its prophetic warning
that it was merely a ruse in the in
terest of Grout. Rather singular,
isn't it, that Ross should favor Grout
ruses? The tact is that Jonathan
Ross knows fair play when he sees
it st. Adams Messenger.
The Free Press says Senator Ross
is not quite accurate when he saws
that 1.-THE State Legislators are as.
sumed by the State Constitution to
be men most noted for wisdom and
virtue" The contemporary afirms
that constitutional requirement per
talns to members OF the House of
Representatives, that there is no
such requirement for the Senate"
The contemporary is not engaged in
exceedingly weighty business in
making this bubble.
The Constitution, Sec. 2, original.
ly vested "the supreme legislative
power in House of Representatives"
That was the Legislature, its mem
bers were the Legislators" Sec. 8
required that the members of this
House of Representatives-the legis.
latOrs-"shall consist of persons
most noted for wisdom and virtne."
When in later years the Senate was
created the requirement respecting
the character of the legislators was
not changed. 1t still stood in all its
original force and impressiveness.
1t would he interesting to know bv
what method of constitutional con-
structiOn the Free Press gets the
Senators out from under that origin

man.
OF the senatorial canvass as a
whole the Phoenix has to say that it
expects to see the lines drawn CLOSELY,
just as they are now, to the end, be-
tween Gen. Grout and ex-Gov. Dill
lingham. We believe, not only that
Mr.. Dillingham; is the popular choice,
but that he has gained greatly in
strength during the last month, and
that Gen. Grout has lost proportion

arise, if there should be unforeseen

Vermonters would be much pleased
to see Gov. Shaw OF Iowa succeed to
the late Senator Gears seat in Con
gress, but the probable winner in the
fight will be Hon. A. B. Cummins of
Des Moines. Gov. Shaw is a distin-
guished Vermonter and if some one
else was governor he would stand an
excellent show of appointment.

Vermont cannot repose on the
political laurels she has won. Her
battle for republicanism, continuous
as freedoms battle, is bequea thed
from republican sire to son. The re-
publicans of Vermont must organize,
the canvass must be pressed with
the vigOr that would be infused into
it il the state was really doubtful.
The best public speakers in the state
and outside its limits, at cross roads
and grand rallies at the
popular Centers, would leave their |
footprints on every stump in the
