Although not in so many words
the st. Adams Messenger in every
issue raises the cry Of Gen. McCul-
lough's opponents, Vermont for Yer
monters. When DR.. Seward Webb
was a candidate E. c. Smith was his
strongest supporter and his news
paper, the Messenger, was to support
him. How strong an argument can
this be with the Messenger when it
was satisfied with DIR. Webb's half
dozen or so years Of residence in Yer
mont and yet finds fault with Gen.
McCullough's 80 years residence in
this state.
How do the voters of Franklin
county enjoy the attempt that is be-
ing made by the same ring that has
dictated the politics ofthis county so
long to deliver them like so many
cattle? Lest this statement seem
like campaign talk it may be we'll to
be more explicit. The same set OF
men who are now Mr.. Proctor's
main supporters in this county were
originally Webb men. Through their
efforts and for other reasons DR..
Webb's candidacy seemed to appeal
to the voters of Franklin county and
at the time of his withdrawal from
the canvass the chances of his hav.
ing a majority of the county seemed
good. E. c. Smiths given credit for
having more to do with DR.. Webbs
withdrawal and Mr.. Proctor becom.
ing a candidate than any other man
So does it not seem reasonable that
Mr.. Proctor was assured if he would
be candidate; remember that Mr.
Proctor was drafted, he did not come
in of his own accord; that he could
have the support of Franklin county
So we say how do the voters like be.
ing disposed of without any voice
Shall the voters of the county have
the reputation of being carried in the
pockets of few St. Adams men, or
will they show the rest of the state
that they are men?

Arb0r Oay.

Governor Stickney has issued the following
proclamation
The planting of trees in sehoolhouse yards
along the highways, in public parks, and in
private grounds should be encouraged by the
state He who plants trees loves others be-
sides himself.
Therefore in harmony with the prevailing
custom, Friday, the second day of May, next
is recommended as Arbor Day in Verm ont.
The observance of the day with appropri-
ate exercises is urged upon public schools. 1t
is part of wisdom to foster therein an ade-
quate appreciation of the use and beauty OF
trees and promote the study of birds which
make their homes in thu m, and thus implant
early in the hearts of the youth of the hand a
love of nature which will abide through life.
Given under my hand and seal of this state
in the Executive chamber at Ludlow, this 22d
day of April in the year of our Lord one
thousand nine hundred and two, and of the
Independence of the United States the, one
hundred and twenty-sixth.

On Re-vlsitlng the Beautiful Hills OF
Vermont.

Once more have seen you. bright hills,
Once more has my soul been best,
Once m Dre | have been in the East
Far away from my home in the West
When once more my weary old feet
In Vermont trod the beautiful hills
The WEAKNESS coming with age
Was forgotten IN pleasure that thrills.
When Mt. Mansfield grew plain in my sight
When Sterling once more met my gaze,
When Belvidere's beautiful peak,
And Norris, re fected Sol's rays
Then my soul grew exultant with joy,
Forgot were the many long years,
And / looked with the eyes OF boy.
Suppressing the un-bidden tears.
| love you've beautiful hills,
Familiar to my chidhoods gaze,
And your granduer gladdens my sight
Even more than in earlier days.
Reveries in these fading years
May daily restore to my thought
The hills of Vermont, and my dreams
May rebuild them in visions unsought.

Lines written on the death of Mrs. Lena
Stockwe Bassett.


Lines written on the death of Mrs. Lee
Stockwell Bassett.
Hush Softly tread and slowly,
Lest We the silence break,
Lest we by some unguarded step
The lovely sleeper wake.
Too young too fair, to die
To all our hearts most dear
Her life, the breath OF holy love,
For friends both far and near
SO swift and silent fell the stroke
1t found US nnprepared,
Then rose prayer from bleeding hearts,
Let Lena's life be spared.
So brief the hour since baby breath
Had famed her faded cheek,
So pure the mother love she gave,
No human lips might speak
Twas hard to leave her helpless babe,
Her husband, friends and home,
But in that fairer home above
They beckoned her to come.
And as the failing breath grew short,
And glazen eyes grew dim,
Her spotiess soul in loving faith
She yielded up to Him.
Then let us to these bleeding hearts
Attempt no words to bring,
For in the presence of the dead
Our words are paltry things.
But in the light of Holy Writ
We see an empty grave,
And He who Uriumphed over death
His weary child will save.
Oh, there is comfort in the thought
That though this body die,
The one who died and rose again
Is still in heaven on high,
And just as sure as Jesus lives,
We too, like him shall be,
And clothed in everlasting youth
Serve Him eternally.
