AN ATRooIoUs MURDER.

Washington, December 24.-News has
been received at the war department OF
a peculiarly atrocious murder In the
Philippines, the circumstances OF which
were developed at the trial OF six natives
before a military commission of CapiZ,
Panay, =. l..
1t appeared from the testimony that
two of the, prisoners were responsible
for the death of the wife Of .one OF their
neigh bora With seven or eight other
men they went 60 the house OF o native
named Victor Pere and foroibly took
him and his wife to the Panay river,
where they bound their hands behind
them and told them that their last
dag had ooms.'' The woman was struck
with q bolo and her dead body thrown
Into the river. Her husband witnessed
her murder and, anticipating similar
treatment, sprang into the river and,
notwithstanding his arms were pinioned
managed 20 reach the opposite shore. 40
corcing TO the witnesses tine motive for
the crime WAS a superstitious belief that
the murdered woman was a witch pos
ssssed of occult powers, whereby she had
In some mysterious way brought about
the death OF q neighbours child. The two
men were sentenced to be hanged, but
Gen. Macarthur mitigated the sentence
In each case to confinement at hard labor
for 10 years out OF consideration for the
axceedingiy low order or intelligence
and blind superstition of the accused.

Why He Flopnad.

Representative Joseph D. Sibley of
Pennsylvania, who changed his politics
during the last session of Congress and be-
came Republican, has lately been ex-
planning on the stump why he Topped.
Mr.. Sibley four years ago was Democrat,
a silver man and a Bryan man. He was
so prominent in the party that he was
fsvorably mentioned by Democratic leaders
as feasible candidate for the vice presi-
Dental nomination along with Bryan
Today he is running for Congress in his
old district on the Republican ticket. He
is on the stump in his own behalf, and
the reasons why he Topped are a stump
speech in themselves. He says he saw
men earning twice as much now as in
1895.
He saw everybody employed now, while
in 1896 Al per cent of the wage earners of
the country we're unemployed or working
on short hours.
He saw the country manufacturing for
home consumption and for export now,
instead of importing, as in 1896.
He saw a pound of wool selling for 80
cents instead of II cents, as in 1896, and
cotton at 10 cents instead of four cents.
He saw an advance under Mckinley of
% to 125 per cent in the price of all farm
products.
he saw $765, OO0, 900 more paid to wage
earners in this country in 1899 than
in 1896.
He saw So miles of empty freight cars
sidetracked and idle on the New York Cen
trail railroad for two years under Cleveland,
and now every wheel turning.
He saw our boys in blue being shot down
by savages and the Bryanites sympathizing
with the savages.
He saw every month national surplus,
instead of a deficit, as In 1896.
He saw we were lending money to Eu-
rope, instead of borrowing II from Europe
as under Clev land.
And when he saw these things he went
and "hopped. "-[K eene Sentinel.

THE SENATOR-EL
The Wish OF the Great Majority.
From the Windsor Journal

The election of ex-Gov. William P. Dill
bingham to the United States Senate,
Thursday, to fill the vacancy caused by the
death of the lamented Morrill, can but give
the liveliest satisfaction to Vermonters
generally, and will be accepted by the
country at large as renewed expression
of the determination that Vermont shall
be represented by her ablest men.
The result vindicates the position of
those who have maintained that an OBJ
servance of the wish of the great majority
of the people of the state would have given
the appointment to ex-Gov. Dillingham;,
when the vacancy first occurred.
1t is true that ex.Gov. Dillingham; was
not elected on the first ballot. This was
due in small measure to the desire of
members of the general assembly to COM
pliment other candidates by their votes,
but in far greater measure to the deter
mined effort of politicians to thwart the
will of the people. After the second bal
lot, there was little, if any, doubt as to
the result

Senator William K. Chandler is pitted
AGAINST the field in the senatorial fight in
New Hampshire. He is backed by only
two of the dozen daily papers in the state,
and by only few of the men who are rec
ognized as party leaders. These include
Congressman Cyrus A. Sulloway of Man
chester, who was recently nominated by
reclamation for his fourth term in Con-
press from the First New Hampshire dis
trict, but is still an active candidate for
Senator Chandler's seat; Judge Henry e.
Burnham of Manchester, prominent law
YER; Congressman Frank G. Clarke of
Peterboro, who has for four years past rep.
resented the Second district; Gen. Frank
S. Streeter of Concord, the chief New
Hampshire attorney for the Boston &
Maine railroad; ex-Unted States Senator
Henry w. Blair of Manchester, who is
now practcing law; ex-CongIessman
Henry NJ Baker of Bow, noted as a gener-
GUS contributor TO the national and state
campaign funds; and Col. Henry G.
Quimby of Laconia, who is prominent in
Masonic, Grand Army and other fraternal
and secret societies.
Notwithstanding this opposition 1t now
appears to the anti. Chandler elements that
so great is Mr.. Chandler's popularity 10 the
party that it is doubtful If the seven oppo-
sition candidates can together poll enough
votes to control the joint convention of the
legislature, and orders have been given to
secure the election of state senators and
representatives who will, first, last and all
the time, vote for anybody except Chand-
ler This state of affairs has caused not a
few dark horses to come out Of their pas
lures with view of securing few votes
here or there in the legislature which will
form the nucleus of boom to be worked
up after the legislature becomes tired of a
deadlock. Among these secondary candi-
dates may be mentioned ex-Gov. John B.
Smith of Hillsboro, an indefatigable party
worker when he takes hold; Henry M.
Putney of Manchester, United States COM
missioner to the Paris exposition; James
o. Lyford of Concord, naval officer of the
port of Boston; Gen. Charles II. Burns of
Nashua, another railroad lawyer, and last,
but not least, Gov. Frank w. Rollins of
Concord, the originator of the old home
week idea.

From the st. Adams Messenger

The Messenger most cordially and heart
lily congratulates William P. Dillingham;
of Waterbury, United States senator elect,
upon the great honor and trust that have
been bestowed upon him by the people of
Vermont. 1t congratulates him upon the
skilful handling of his canvass by a body
of enthusiastic and determined supporters,
and it congratulates him upon those we'll
known qualities of Christian manhood
that have all these years attached and held
such loyal circle of friends to his inter-
est. Even as Mr.. Dillingham; may we'll be
proud of his great triumph as a recogni-
ton of personal worth, so he may also re-
ioice that it was won for him by the fideli-
ty of his friends.

Dillingham; Ihe Man for the Place.
From the Bradford Opinion.1

A senator has been elected who will look
after all of the interests of our state with
conscientious care. The struggle was
brief, but significant The Dillingham; en-
thusiasm was everywhere shown, the clear,
crisp atmosphere seemed to be loaded with
the healthgiving ozone of a cleansing po-
litical situation. The break among the OPP
position came at the first opportunity Of
fered after the first joint ballot, and demon
strated the fact that at heart the members
of the legislature believed that ex-Gov.
Dillingham; was the man for the place.
Had it been known on the first ballot
Thursday, more than 200 votes would have
been given to Mr.. Dillingham;. General
rejoicing holds sway today in our grand
old commonwealth over the splendid vindi-
cation of the peoples cause.

Honor to Captain Clark.
From the Montpelier Waterman

Without a voice of dissent, unanimously,
on rising vote, both houses this morning
adopted a resolution commissioning Gov
ernor Stickney to procure a portrait Of
Captain Charles <, Clark, late of the Ore
gon, to be placed in the State capitol in
commemoration of his services to his
country. There was great deal of latent
enthusiasm on the subject of a memorial
to the brave captain, and it needed only
the presentation of a resolution carrying
the proposition into effect to insure its in
slant adoption. In both houses the dis
tnction of rising vote was accorded the
object of the memorial, and in the senate
the added compliment has been paid OF a
suspension of the rules to permit the adop-
ton of the resolution without reference to
committee. All bars we're leveled for the
prompt and hearty acceptance of a measure
OF respect and homage to the gallant com
mander of the Oregon, by his fellow citi-
zens of Vermont. The resolution ap-
pears in the report of legislative proceed
ings.

of its traditional standing in the senate Of

part of the Grout following is about as
we'll pleased with the result as are the orig

canvass has been entirely free from even
the suspicion of questionable methods or
practices. 1t has been pushed with Vigor,
but has been kept on high plane.

New York Letter in Philadelphia Ledger @

Again does Vermont uphold her record
of sending her best men to Congress. Will
liam P. Dillingham;, who was chosen
United States senator today, is a man of
high character and deserved popularity.
He comes of the best blood of the state.
His father was governor Of Vermont, and
his son recently filed the same office. In
1876, when your correspondent was legis-
lative reporter at Montpelier, Mr. Dilling-
ham was a member of the lower house,
and, although new in the legislature, was
easily the most popular man there. At
that time Senator Proctor was lieutenant
governor, and Gen. Grout, who has been
Dillingham; chief competitor for the SEN
ate, was a member of the state senate.
Proctor became governor, then secretary Of
war, and finally succeeded Edmunds in the
Senate. Gen. Grout soon entered the Ma
tional House of Representatives, where,
with the exception of one term, he has re-
manned ever since. Mr.. Dillingham; has
served one term as governor. predict
that he will stand high in the United States
