The little town Of Elmore in La
noble county has put itself on record
as unmistakab4y opposed to the
'snap'' caucus methods OF the Nc
Cullough men. The caucus in that
town had been 'sprung'' as sure
card to play for Mccullough early in
the game in order to give out the i'm
preston that "Spunky Lamoille'
would line up solid for the Bennington
candidate. The old regime that has
so long Souglt to control politics ir
that locality had promised the delega-
ton to Mccullough, but when the
first test came it failed to deliver the
goods. The people Of Gilmore love
fair play and they took this opportu
nifty to set good example for the
whole county by showing it,-St. AL
bans Messenger.

6At RE VI, May 3 100!

The result Of the first caucus held
in Washington county cannot be said
to be very encoura ing to the NC
Culough managers. 1t has been
claimed all along by some Of them
that the country was solid for the
osummer RESIDENT candidate but the
MOntpelier caucus has proved it to De
otherwise and there are more to fol.
low. 1t is certain that Montpelier was
set down as sure for Mccullough and
it is known that assurances to this
effect have been given the Mccullough
managers by the professional politi'
clans at the Capital city. On this
account many of the Proctor managers
did not feel like making hopeless
contest in such stronghold and &C.
cordingly did not put up ticket.
Many supporters Of Proctor undoubt'
IDLY voted for the Clement ticket tC
beat the Mccullough ticket and in
this they were successful. For this
reason Mr.. Clement cannot exactly
feel much comfort from the caucu,
but he is welcome to get what he car
out Of it.

Our Ignorance of Earth.

1t is beginning to strike the thoughtful
that we know very little of the appear
ance of the earth. A mine that descends
a quarter of a mile underground is re-
latively speaking scarcely more thar the
impression made by a ferrule of a walk
ing stick on a wet road. The great heart
of the globe itself remains untouched and
unknown. Is it solid or is it liquid? But
more humbling is the reflection that un-
til we learn to fly we shall nave no true
conception of the picture o the earth.
Our vision Is lateral. We are looking at
the earth as though to see ourselves we
held a mirror with its end against our
nose, and looked along 1t. We think we
know how a tree looks how a mountain
looks, even how a man looks; but we do
not. We only know as much of their ap-
pearance as a fly knows of the picture
1t crawls upon. To see a picture proper
ly one must stand away from it, and
until we get off the earth, either by fly
ing machines or balloons, we shall have
no faithful idea of how our planet really
looks. UNIVERSAL flying would surely
breed an entirely new school of art

anide product from the percolation plant
yesterday. BY the end of the week the
bullion produced during the last half
of the month and the cleanup from the
shining department of the mill will be
received. AS the last half of the month
always provides a greater revenue thar
the first half, it is expected that the
entire months run will amount to about
$12, 200, or considerably more than was
produced during July, good month
though 1t was. The Dexter is now in a
fair way to begin the accumulation Of
