SIDE JUDGE FOR THE SOUTH PROBATE
DISTRICT.

We understand that four year ago the
citizens of Orwell instructed their dele
gates to the county convention to present
the name of II. ID. Branch for the posi-
ton of side Judge for the south probate
district, but that his name was with
drawn at that time in the Interest of
party harmony. and Mr. Gustavus Walk
er of BridpOrt named as candidate. We
also understand that Orwell would be
pleased to have Mr.. Branch's name con-
sidered at the coming county convention.
Mr.. Branch is well qualified for this pc
sition, and we think the claim of Orwell
will be admitted throughout the county,
especially a she has not named candl-
date for this office for the last twenty
five years.

The Next United states Senator.


The following communication has been
received from John Young of Newport,
Vt:
To the Voters of the State of Vermont:
Since the death of the lamented Justin
:. Morrill, the interest of the voters of
Vermont In the choice of a United States
Senator by the next legislature has
been increasing. Heretofore Vermont
has exercised an influence in the senate
far in excess of its relative wealth or
population. Much of the time. we be-
leve, superior 70 that of any other state
in the Union. furnishing at the same time
a chairman for the judiciary and for the
finance committees in Senators Edmunds
and Morrill,. We are soon to select a
man to sustain or surrender this proud
position. Are the voters of Vermont
prepared to admit that Vermont has
ceased to produce men of the character
and ability of her former senators: It
not we must do our duty as citizens. re-
gardless of personal friendship, and see
to it that the best man in the state is
selected for this position.
The newspapers of Orleans county
and many friends of Gen W. w. Grout
are claiming that his sixteen years ser
vice in congress has proven him to be
the man whom the voters ought to select.
OF course the practical results of his siX-
teen years service ought to answer this
question Has ne become a leader of the
house: Has he originated any legislation
of Importance either to this state or to
the nation
My interest in these questions has led
me to cause his record, as shown by the
published proceedings of congress, to be
examined for the purpose of ascertainng
what the facts are. That examination
has been carefully made. If it contains
errors, or if omissions are made. they can
be readily pointed out. Here is the
record of the practical results of his six
teen wears in congress previous to the
present session:
Only fifty six bills introduced by him
have become laws. OF these, fifty-twO
are private bills aud only four are of =
public character. OF the fifty-twO pri
vate bills, fifty are private pension bills.
each granting pension to a single in
dividual one (5lst congress- granted re-
lief to n single person. and one (5lth

to provide for the payment of bonds of
the District: one to provide Tree bath
ing beach in the District; and the fourth
Goth congress was to erect public
building at Newport.
Does this record Justify the claims of
Lis friends that he has been of great
benefit to the aboring men. especially to
the farmers, of Vermont; Which of
thu Sc acts Is OF national importance
Which Is of any considerable importance
TO the state of Vermont? Does this
record make it probable that Gen. Grout

PAUAHI STREET EXTENSION.
Formal Offer of Bishop Estate Likely
To be Accepted.

Minister Young and F. 5. Dodge were
in consultation yesterday regarding the
proposition made by the Bishop Estate
in relation to the opening OF Pduahi
street from Nuuanu avenue TO Fort
street. As recommended by the road
jury a few days ago, the extension Of
Pauahi street will enter Fort just ma
kai of the Love building. The Bishop
Estate owns about one-quarJer of the
land required for the extension; the
Estates property needed being strip
thirty-six feet wide and 1SS feet IN
length. This strip is a part of Fow-
ler's yard, or PamoO, as it is known
10 native Hawaiians.
Through Mr.. Dodge the Bishop Es-
tate yesterday made a formal offer to
the Government to deed the property
mentioned in consideration that the
authorities waive betterments and
build the sidewalks for the Estate ac-
cOrding to the legal requirements. IN
der the offer the street is to be put
through in one year after signing the
agreement. There are no leases on the
strip to be decided the Government,
and it is very probable that the offer
will be accepted at once and Pauahi
