A POLITICAL "REMINISCENCES
(From the Mortified News.

Ten years ago this month there was a
strenuous light on over the governorship
nomlnation In this State, although it did
not equal the present one. The contest of
1872 was like the present fight, three cor
nered one. Levi *. Fuller of Brattleboro
Henry A. Fletcher of Cavendish and Victor
J. spear of Brantroe were the candidates
The convention was held June - at Bur
ington. Col. Fuller, like Gen. Mccullough
cd in delegates from the beginning OF the
caucuses and while his friends were q BILE
to hgure out a clear majority for him be-
Tore he went into convention, the support
erS OF the other two candidates claimed
mat they held the balance of power and
succeeded in giving Col. Fullers support
ers most uncertain feeling down toward
the bottom of their boots. In that conven-
llon 6lS delegates were present, requiring
$40 votes for Il choice Col. Fuller won on
the first ballot his vote being 1874. While
Col. Fuller's opponents were unable to put
up as hard a fight in some directions as
have Gen. McCullough's two competitors.
yet they possessed certain advantages over
the Brattlcboro man. which made the con-
test extremely interesting from the start
Coz, Fuller, however led from the start to
the hnish as has General McCul-
Tough. 1t is worthy of note tust
now that Gen. Mccullough presided at the
invention which nominated Col. Fuller
and his address upon accepting the honor
was conceded by all to be one Of the most
brilliant efforts ever heard At a similar re-
publican gathering in Vermont. At that
convention F. Stewart Stranahan Of st, AL

The Issue Of the Hour in Vermont
What Is Needed,

CFrom the Morrisvlle News and Citizcn)
VIII Vermont depart from her prohibit
ton moorings and embark on the tempest
uous sea of license? We confess to many
misgivings touching this matter. The An
ti-Saloon League has recommended re-
ferendum and the Republican party, in
harmony with the recommendation of the
Anti-Saloon League. has pledged itself to
a submission to the people of license and
local option law. Good faith now seems
TO demand that the Republican party pass
same sort of license law at the next Leg
islature, to be submitted to the people at
some time there after. the time to be des-
ignated by the Legislature, and upon its
acceptance by majority vote the bill Will
become the law of our state.
In accepting the referendum the advan-
tage which the friends of prohibition have
heretofore enjoyed by way of having each
town count one is thrown away, and the
city of Burlington is likely to give a maj
GRITTY for license law larger than the
whole county Of Lamoille can give against
It; whereas. heretofore the ten votes of
Lamoille county were each as potential
in the Legislature as the vote of Burling-
ton.
Tho license law once upon our statute
books, it is doubtful IL it will ever he re-
poaled, It's Importance to the liquor traf-
hc is such that distillers and wholesale
dealers will no doubt furnish the necessary
funds TO control n majority of the YER
mont Senate and thus prevent a repeal OF
the law.
The only hope of the friends of prohi-
bition now is that a campaign Of educa-
ton be at once commenced and contin-
ued until the crucial test comes, when
the referendum bill Is submitted for appro-
val or disapproval, and unless a MAORI
ty of the voters of Vermont shall place
their seal of condemnation upon license
at that time, Vermont will pass. If not for
all time, for many years at least, into
the column of license states, and we shall
see saloons scattered through our YER
mont villages as we now see them when we
cross the border into Canada or go into the
State of New York, where open saloons
are the order of the day.
We confess that the picture Is not an
inviting one to those who believe, as many
of the staunchest and best men of our
state do believe, that saloons are menace
to the welfare of our State and especially
to the rising generation.
OUR CANDIDATE.
(From the Burlington News)
Gen. Mccullough has won the republi-
can nomination and will be the next COVER
nor Of Vermont. The convention in its
nomination of Gen. McCullough--which
was made unanimous at the request of rep
resentatives of both the other candidates

all further criticisms within the party

good republican will work for harmony

THE LIQUOR ISSUE.
(From the Ludlow Tribune)

In connection with the present fight in
Vermont which has but Just begun, it is
OF interest to note that the keepers of the
much-talked- Capitol bars at Washing
ton have recently been arrested and fined
"" each by the police court. The point at
issue is as to the right of the government
of the District of Columbia to impose a
license upon these restaurant Keepers
they having been granted the privilege of
dispensing liquor by the United States.
