All of the towns, except four, have
elected delegates. Warren with 2
delegates holds its caucus Thursday
night; Brook6eld and Rochester
with 2 and 4 delegates respectively
elect Saturday night. Royalton,
which had a caucus and failed to
elect, adjourned sine die. The full
delegation is 728, necessary for
choice 365. Of this number Nc
Cullough lacks 40, Clement 146 and
Proctor 1913. Indications are that
there will be no choice on first ballot;
after that which way the delegates
will go, it is impossible to predict.
We believe, however, that with the
strong lead the General now has the
chances are very good for his NOM
nation.

Gov. Cummins, of Iowa, at ban
quet given by the Roosevelt Club OF
Denver, recently responded to the
toast, True Republicanism." Gov.
Cummins touched upon the question
of organized ca pital and organized
labor, declaring emphatically that he
stood for the union ofboth when their
power is exercised for the welfare of
the world, but he pointed out that
untrammeled authority and absolute
power, moved by selfish interests
alone, will not be exercised for the
good of the people. The speaker de-
clared that the government must Law
its hand upon combinations of CAPT
tai and restrain them within such
limits as will permit the qualification
of ambition and on the other hand
protect the weak against aggression
and impositions from which, save
by the mighty hand of the govern
ment, they cannot escape.

question. There are quite a number

no particular bearing upon the ques-
ton of States Attorney; vet our

citizens of Lamoille County, and we
therefore publish the article in full.
Regarding Mr.. Bicknell's ability for
the position Of States Attorney
there is no question. We only sug-
gested what others in various parts
of the county have said, to wit: that
the age, experience and ability of
Col, Sawyer would make him a good
States Attorney. That is all there
is to it. What was done 10 or 20
years ago has no special bearing
upon the situation of to-day. The
best man possible should be selected
for this important Office. We have
no doubt that the convention will
act judiciously in this as well as in
matters that may come before it.

Resolutions from Pomona.

WEIGH by committee appointed at
II school meeting held in Pomona
district May Bird, 1902.
The permanent withdrawal of our
honored fellow-citizen, Rev. M. G..
Welch from his position ON our local
school board, forces upon our minds
his devoted and earnest labOrs in be-
half of our community for the last
eighteen years.
When he came among us we had
neither an organized church or
school; his efforts IN establishing
these essential institutions TO organ
lied society We're earnest and untir-
ing, and when established he en-
gagged actively in the work of erect
ing, church and school buildings,
which dO-day are Il credit to this
community and would be to a IN irh
larger one.
The church he presided o> er as
pastor during most of this period,
and his labOrs in behalf of the school
have not been less earnest or labori-
Gus.
He has spared neither time nor
means to make these institutions
everything they stand for-eX9o-
nents of religious and educatiOni ii
advancement--and all undertakings
for business and community adj
vancement have received his hearty
support. But these labors do not
represent the greatest work he has
done in our community.
1t is in his intimate and close asso-
citation with the family and individ-
ual life, that his earnest, Christian,
spiritual life has made its greatest
impression, for it has been a con-
slant devotion to every call and
every demand, therefore, be it
Resolved, That we as citizens take
this opportunity to express to him
our heartfelt thanks for these emf
nent labors, and our prayers that
his life may be long spared among us
that we may still continue to enjoy

The BishOD'S EuIOgy,

At the Fifty-ninth annual council
of the Episcopal church in Florida,
held III Jacksonville last week. Rt.
Rev. Edwin Gardner Weed, bishop
of the diocese, in his annual address
pronounced the following eulogy on
the late Mrs. Huntington:
ION February 23d Mrs. Katherine
Brity Sumner Huntington passed to
her rest. For many years she had
lived in Huntington, which she
named and founded She gave the
lot on which the church stands, and
through her efforts and generous
contributions, the beautiful edifice
was erected. She has long been
known for her charities, and through
her love for the church many have
been brought into the fold. 1t has
always been an astonishment to me
what one good woman can do.
"Mrs. Huntington had the advan-
tage of being possessed of ample
means, and these she used to help
others. Simple in her habits, her
chief pleasure seemed to be in aid
ing others. AS she drew near her
end, she grew more and more feeble,
but her interest in the church never
decreased, and as long rs she was
able to go out at all she went regu-
larly to Gods sanctuary to worship
her Master.
''She will be greatly missed by the
people of Huntington, and by many
who lived within the radius of her
influence. 1t is hard to imagine a
more simple life, yet few lives had a
more extended influence. In think
ing of Mrs. Huntington, her many
charities and simple devotion to her
Master makes her memory precious.
"All Saints, Huntington, will be
an enduring memorial of her earnest
labors and generous acts, and all who
enter the portals of the sanctuary
must ever bear in mind how she
struggled, even in her feebleness, to
be numbered among the worship
ners.n
