The convention was Just about the
warmest assembly that Vermont ever
dreamed Of. IL started in early in
the session when the chairman E ID.
RAYMOND made hi: address. 1t was
splendid production but the whole
convention including the visitors in
the galleries were like so many mad
bulls t0rmented by red flag.
The speaker took his listeners around
the world several times and back
again to Montpelier but when he
started out on a other voyage there
was trough house. The convention
was thirsting for the fray and they
we're uneasy Two thirds of the au-
dience began to stamp tneir feet and
the speaker could not hear himself
talk. Chairman Allen raped for
order but this silenced them only for a
moment.
Mr.. Raymond courageously 'oug''
it out, however fer a half hour Lua

uneducated hotel help. But II was time
to 20, and paying my bill left embryo
Minerva none the worse for our inter-
change.
