PRESS COMMENTS.

Since suppositions if nothing more
abound to the effect that General
Mccullough and DR.. Webb, each a
railroad magnate, aspire to the
honor of being governor of Vermont,
two considerations present them
selves to the average Vermonter
The first is, whether the state has
not among it's regular citizens, men
who spend their days and nights
here, some one who is capable of fill
ing that post? Secondly, must a
governor be necessarily chosen
from among railroad presidents? 1t
strikes us that there is no need of
going to New York city to find a
governor for Vermont, and that it is
high time that other interests besides
those of railroads should be con-
suited in selecting the executive of
this te.-LandmaIk.

man has, to be the aristocrat of the
navy. He enjoyed social advantages

lCoolOu Ill UuO nav dl dCdueLuys ue ndS
for years been a social favorite at
Washington, he won the greatest
naval victory in years and he is now
the officer of highest rank in the
navy. He has none of the fooli5A
ideas of Sampson about refusing sea-
men, gamers and machinists a
chance tor a commission when they
have proved themselves worthy of it,
He says:-'l am ON record, as a
senior member of the naval general
board, as recommending that linn
tied number of the warrant officers
of the navy should be APPOINTED
commissioned officers. II think this
is all | need to say. If we are to have
a great American navy we must be in
touch with the American people. SO,
as | have said, there must be given
an opportunity or opening for men
to rise from the ranks" The strange
thing about SIMPSONS unwillingness
to give promising young men in the
navy a chance is that he had no
social advantage in youth, being the
son of a com mon laborer. -Nontpek-
