4 CAPABLE CONGRESSMAN.

Vermont never had more capable,
faithful and painstaking congressman
than Gen. GrOut; his eminent qualifi-
cations and clean record are known
and read of all men. Before having
set foot upon Vermont soil, the writer
become familiar with the name and
standing Of Gen. w. w. Grout through
the newspapers of Now Jersey and
Pennsylvania and heard his name
referred to by prominent men who
had been associated with him at
Washington. The reputation of great
majority of representatives never
extends beyond their own state or
congressional district. How many
are there of our readers who could
name one or more of the thirteen con-
gressmen from our sister state, Mass
echusetts? How many of the thirty
four representatives from New York
state are known outside their own
bailiwick?
But very few members of the pres
ent house of representative are more
widely known than Gen. Grout of
Vermont. Everybody knows Gen.
Grout and what's better still he knows
everybody and has not grown too
aristocrat1c or sanctimonious to rec
Ognize common folks. He has been
the only real representative of the
people of Vermont il the national
house Of representative for ten years.
Powers has represented the interests
Of the railroads and corporations, but
when the people have wanted favors
they have appealed to Gen. Grout
and we have never yet heard of an
instance in which Gen. Grout was too
busy to give a hearing to one of his
most humble constituents ts.-Deerfeld

THE WAR IN SOUTH AFRICA.

| General Butler has been unsuocess-
| full in his attempts to relieve Lady
smith thus far. The reports received
! last week show that he found the hill
that he had succeeded in seizing
after crossing the Tugela river un-
tenable and was obliged to fall back
and recross the river after sustaining
heavy losses. The latest dispatches
state that Butler has again crossed the
river and is making an attempt to
advance, but it is doubtful if he can
succeed from this point. Ladysmith
is reported as being able to hold out
for'some time yet, but if Gen. Butler
is unable to relieve him Gen. White
will be obliged to cut his way out
through the lines of the enemy or
surrender his entire force. The Eng
lish feel that it would be very humili-
ating to them to surrender force of
twelve thousand men to the enemy
but it would be far better to do this
than to lose half of them in an at
tempt to fight their way out. Presi-
dent Mckinley is being urged very
strongly to offer to mediate between
the two countries, but he insists that
this country shall remain neutral.
European countries, while they do
not care to offend England by ad
vancing the proposition to mediate
themselves, would be pleased to have
the United States take such a step, as
it would embarrass England and help
to sever the cordial feeling now ex-
listing between the two countries.
However they will not succeed as
President Mckinley is, firm in his in
tention that our government shall re-
main neutral unless he should learn
that mediation would be acceptable
to the two countries most concerned.

E H WEBSTER

William Goebel, the democratic
candidate for governor of Kentucky,
was shot while walking about the
capitol at Frankfort last week. The
wound is considered fatal So far no
clue has been found to the one who
fred the shot. Mr.. Goebel was con-
testing the election of Mr.. Taylor, re-
publican, who had been declared
elected by a small majority There
has been q great amount of excite
ment in the state since the election
and martial law had been declared by
Gov. Taylor. The decision of the
election board, rendered Tuesday,
was in favor of Goebel, who was de-
clared elected and the oath of office
was administered to him on the fol-
lowing DAY. Excitement is at a very
high pitch, and both factions are in a
fighting mood and unless the more
conservative ones prevail, more blood
may be shed there at any time.
