ANOTHER VEIN FOUND.

Austin. Aug. Is De w b Phillips,
professor Of field geology In the State
university. who is at the head of the
STATE geological survey, has made some
important mineral discoveries in Brew
ster county. according to information
received here. II Is stated that while
conducting the annual survey In that
section he discovered some rich veins
of quicksilver. The vein of this dis
covery is about so miles northeast of
the town of BoquiIlas, near the Rio
Grande border, and about 80 miles east
of the Terlinqua quicksilver district.
1t is believed that the new field will
develop into one of the richest quick
silver districts In the country. The
rock formation in which these quick
silver veins are found is believed to
extend across the Rio Grande into
Mexico and a quicksilver district will
probably be opened up on the other
side of the river.

sociations, of the cry that is going up
for defense from assaults by his course
and professions he has invited This
Macedonian cry, report has it, has
been sent throughout the State.
1t is noticeable that Mr.. Ormsbee
does not deny, and makes no effort to
explain, how the vast and valuable
aggregation of property, real and per-
sonal, at Proctor, came to be apprais-
ed for taxation at only 1886, go. This
is really the most astonishing and Sc
rious development of the condition of
affairs in the boro' of Proctor. 1t is a
sin against the whole State, as well as
the individual taxpayers of Proctor
who are not of the house of Proctor.
1t would clearly have been better
for client and advocate had Mr.. Orms-
bee been less rhetorical and emotion
al, and more judicial, in his plea for
his clients. 1t is hard to kick against
the pricks of official records. Fervid
and emotional denial does not melt
and dissipate icy facts.

AN HYSTERICAL DENIAL.

Ex-Governor Ormsbee of Brandon
makes sweeping and perfervid de-
NAL Of the facts and circumstances
recently published respecting labor
and temperance conditions existing at
Proctor. The ex-Governor's lam
guage, which we wish to remark is
plain, would be entitled to greater
consideration had his rhetoric been
less tropical, and his consideration of
the facts of the records more Judi
cial. Highly as one may esteem the
Ex-Governor he will hardly expect
the public to accept his general denial
as against the testimony of the rec
ords, beyond which the newspapers
he indicts - and whose indictments
appall him so-do not go. If the
Governor can destroy the testimony
of official records he can establish his
case.
Will Mr.. Orsmbee descend to details
and say that the Proctors, individu-
ally or through the corporation store,
or the Vermont Marble Company-al =
ways one and the same thing practi.
cally, three III one, business and po-
litical trinity will he deny that
somewhere in this trinity there are
held certain licenses of the United
States for the sale of Intoxicating
liquors? Will he deny that one Ii
cense is held? Will he deny that
there have been prosecutions in Proctor
for violations of the prohibitory law ?
Will he deny the record of Fletcher
ID. Proctor, as copied from the Senate
and House journals fficial-recent-
ly published by the representatives
of organized labor?
The Ex-Governor doth protest too
mnch and too fervently, and doth too
little attention pay to the solemn
facts of the records. His letter savors
too much of the good things that may
have come from time to time from his
princely neighbors, of the blandish
ments of the near and congenial as

THE DELUGE.

Some weeks ago, when the Phoenix
of Brattleboro, the Herald and News
of Randolph, and the Messenger of st.
Adams, the leaders and chief spokes-
men of Fletcher d. Proctors canvass
began their campaign of belittlement
of innuendo and fragrant misrepre-
sentation, against Gen. Mccullough,
they were warned, as was also their
candidate for Governor, that their
campaign of infamy was inviting the
deluge
They did not take the warning, their
chief or his manager did not call off
his dogs. The deluge has come, and
there is no friendly ark to take the
shipwrecked candidate on board. EX-
Gov. Ormsbee finds the flood of re-
corded facts that has eugulfed the
Proctor candidacy simply appalling
and i'll the Rutland Daily News, a
Proctor paper, seeks to brush back the
rising tide with the bosom of his in
dignation. King Canute has a sue
cessor.
But what view does this King Ca
mute hold Of the vicious attacks,
the SANDERS" the wicked and out
rageous charges, all seemingly en-
anating from the same source and for
like purpose'-as he says which
have been and still are filling the
mails of Vermont" but which have
been aimed at Gen. Mccullough, one
of the noblest, best and purest of the
men of Vermont? Why does it make
so great difference with the ex-Gov.
ernor as to whose OK is gored in this
canvass? Why are statements of re.
corded facts respecting affairs and
conditions at Proctor malicious lies, u
to be denounced, while evil state
ments, falsehoods and misrepresenta
tions respecting Mccullough, having
no foundation except in the malice
and desperate straits of Proctor news
papers and supporters he passes with
out rebuke?
King Canute had best take his chair
to the top of some Ararat. The del
uge, as we'll as the tide, is rising.

The result of the caucus elections
