A VERMONT HILL TOWN.
Profane Manners of the Denizens of
n Small Village.
(From the Boston Transcript.)


I spent few days lately in a Vermont
hill town, far up tas to elevation above
the seal in the Green Mountains; and,
though l had neither time nor inclination
TO make any study into the matter of the
degeneracy of The population noted in the
articles of Mr.. Rollin Lynde Hart, | did
see good many OF the people, and heard
their talk as they were gathered around
the ancient oblong box-stove OF the vii
lage hotel. Certain broad features Of
their life were clearly evident. The men
and the boys were of large and good
looking type physically. 1 saw several of
real manly beauty among these products
of the high hills.
An old tavernkeeper. a native of the old
race, had face such as We are accustomed
TO see associated in pictures with the Eng
lish nobility-an overhanging brow. good
forehead, a hawk-nose, a strong mouth. and
chin. His blue eyes were keen, and I am
told that he is money maker" There
were no signs of degene.acy about him,

Those Council Proceedings.

{ The Sheaf last week aired a griey-
ance it claimed to have against the
city recorder OF this city. We are
not sure that a reply from us is nee
essary, but, as "we" are the city re
corder referred to, we. will say this:
A member OF the Sheaf's repertorial
staff called upon us and asked to see
the minutes Of the last council meet
ing. In reply we informed him that
they had not been written out in ex-
tense as vet, and that as soon as
they should he he could peruse them
all he wished, as also could any 9TH
er citizen or other person interested.
He was also informed that if he did
not care to wait until then we could
give him an oral synopsis of all the
business that was transacted at the
meeting, and we then and there gave
it to him. Apparently he merely
wanted an excuse for registering a
kick, and doubtless he would have
found it whatever had occurred at
his interview with the recorder. Had
he faithfully reconnted all the con-
versation that took place, we should
have been perfectly satisfied and
there would have been no occasion
for us to make this reply. II the
Sheaf shall be hereafter represented"
at the council meetings, it's handful
Of readers should also have q repre-
sentative present SO that they will
know whether -or not the account it
gives them is correct. Warren Reg
lister.
The above is cheap attempt Of
the 1--WE" of the Register to square
himself. esees he has made a bad
break and wants to get out oft,
and is not particular as to the meth
cd employed. He thought our re-
porter would make no further effort
to get the proceedings and nothing
more would be said about the mat
ter. When we first asked for the
proceedings he said there was moth
ing done but the appointing OF cleo
tion judges, whose names he gave.
e.then discovered that he was Civ
ing the Sheaf a piece Of news and
froze up, hiding behind an imaginary
grievance against the clerk Of the
school board. He said the minutes
had not been written up and adopt
ed by the council and that as soon
as they had we could have them.
This would take a month, as the
council holds monthly meetings, and
the Sheaf does not like to wait for
such things till they become history.
The only other business transacted
was the passing OF some bills, and
these he absolutely refused to give
us. He knows, better than he knows
the eighth commandment, that he
did not offer to give us an oral syn
opsis. That was all we asked him
for nthe first place. He falls back
on an assumed dignity and grows
sarcastic in his wind-up, but that We
pass over, as every one knows what
that is worth. IS.

A Republican rally was held at the
school house the 18th inst. MI. Con
slant Larson, of Alexandria, Mimi,
was the principal speaker. He deliv-
cred the most able speech that ever
was made here. He talked quite a
long time, which was largely due to
the fact that he was interrupted sew
eral times with questions from few
Populist- Democrats who could not en-
dure Mr.. Larson's arguments. It is a
shame such people can't behave them
selves at a political meeting, just be.
cause their opinion is different. FIG.
Bennett, candidate for Superintendent
of Schools, also said few words, and
furnished some songs and music,
which were well appreciated. Alb.
Nelson, candidate for Auditor, pre-
sented a few selections from the pho
nograph. A. B. Isaacson, candidate
for Register of Deeds, and VIM. Fors-
berg, candidate for Sheriff, were also
present. The attendance was very
good, and, with few exceptions, the
audience was we'll pleased.
The Temperance Society held
meeting last Sunday, and for the first
time the organ of the society, Excel
sior's Echo, appeared. :.Notwithstand-
ing the busy time, the editor had done
we'll in getting up editorials. It was
some time ago decided by the Tenn
perance Society to write to the several
Representative candidates of this dis
trict concerning. their attitude on the
county option bill =. Letters have been
received fromsall, and was read at the
last meeting of the society, and all the
four candidates. are in favor of the
bill.
Election day is'very near, and the
voters willRhave to decide for which
candidates to vote. Saying anything
about the candidates.does not become
us, but we takeathe liberty to state
that the election of Sheriff is an i'm.
portant one, and the Republican NOM
inee, VIM. ForsbeAg, who is the only
one on the Republican ticket from the
eastern part of the.county, is capable
man for::the ofice.".and deserves cleo
ton. DON'T fail to cast your vote for
him.
