In lecture at Lyndonville Saturday
evening by Rev. Ora S. Gray, formerly of
Wheelock, on "Three P's in Pod" the
lecturer depressed to say good word
for one of his instructors at Lyndon In
stitute few years ago, Hon. Walter E.
Ranger. In introducing the lecturer it
was said that ga prophet is not without
honor in his own country and Mr..
Gray, wishing to prophesy, said he
thought it was not beyond possibility
that Mr.. Ranger would be governor of
Vermont. He not only thought he was
capable of filling the Office, but he
thought he ought to have it, and he
thought he would have it.
AS lecturer Mr.. Gray is said to be a
success and all he lacks now as a cam
paigner is a private car and coon

A St. Johnsbury Man i'm His List.

The editor of the Barre Telegram wants
total abstinence candidate for Cover
nor and when Intercepted named nine
good and true men and said:
And there are many others who
through faith have abjured intoxicants,
led clean lives, devoted themselves to
business, acquired competence, made
for themselves reputation, and proved
equal to every trust thus far reposed.
These all having obtained a good report
through abstinence receive not the nomi-
nation, having provided for themselves a
better and more enduring inheritance"
The kilograms list contains these
names: Zed S. Stanton, Frank Plumley,
Curtis Emery, Z. M. Mansur, John Mer-
rifeld, N. g. Williams, H. N. Turner,
Fletcher D. Proctor and henry F. Field.
Commenting on this editorial the Lud-
low Tribune draws the following lesson:
"Of course none of them will probably
be nominated, but there's first class
temperance lesson in the fact that all
these men, with material success to their
credit, have found that it paid to let
liquor alone. And that's good Tribune
doctrine, you as you all know.

certain number. We hear people remark
it is pity such a bill was not passed
years ago. Vermont congressman have
never taken back seat in congress, but
are ready to take their part when oppor-
tunity occurs. After Senator Depew
made one of his eloquent addresses on
the naval bill, Senator German followed,
citing many statistics to show the heavy
expenditure in recent years. Since Nc
Kinley came in we have spent on army,
navy and forti6cation bills 81 ,SO4, 0OO,-
600, an immense sum which does not
include the $3.50, 100000 in other ways,
in Spanish war operations, and that is
more than all of the previous history of
the government. He stated it cost
100000 year to run each ship, which
may last. perhaps, 20 years or only 10
years and the repairs are very expensive.
Senator Csrmack of Tennessee, reminded
Senator Depew that some years ago he
viewed this matter differently. Mr..
Depew replied that the remarks quoted
were those OF a private individual. OF a
certain Cbauncy Depew but not of Sena-
tor Depew. He is dead now" observed
Senator Carmack. Senator Depew stated

1t has been suggested that Senator
Hoar has written home such accounts of

A Warning to the Japanese.

In spite of their early successes the lap
anese may read and ponder with much
profit the remarks of one Napoleon Bo-
naparte on the subject of making war
with Russia:
1t was making war upon Russia that
ruined me.
Russia is the nation that is most likely
to march to universal dominion.
I would not have declared war upon
Russia but that I was persuaded she was
about to declare war upon me.
B In the end Russia will become mistress
of the world.
But for my marriage with Marie Louise
I would not have declared war upon
Russia. (He expected assistance from
Austria.)
am reproached for not getting myself
killed at Waterloo. / think I ought
rather to have died in Russia.
Russia is in a favorable position to
conquer the world.
Perhaps / did wrong to commence the
Waterloo campaign. / did not think
then that Russia would take hand.
fl had had 100000 more men in Rus
STA there would have been that many
more lost.
After 1 had reached Moscow should
have died there.
These are the afterthoughts of master
of war who had conquered western
Europe and whose downfall dated from
his ill-starred campaign against the Rus
slams.
The Japanese are not as yet attempt
ing such an invasion as that undertaken
by Bonaparte. but they are arrayed
against the same stolid foe, the same
innumerable hosts and the same enemy
isolated in snow and ice during the
greater part of the wear.
So long as Japan confines its energies
to the sea and to defensive operations on
land it will not encounter the fury OF the
power which almost without pitched
battles was able to destroy the grand
army of France and to cause the throne
of its military dictator to crumble. It's
real perils will date from the moment
that it begins offensive movements on
land.-l Chicago Chronicle. -

Presidential Gossip.

MIR. RooseveIts Election Threatened.
It is not Mr.. Roosevelt's nomination
but his election that may be threatened
by the factional quarre1s within the
republican party in the states of New
York and Ohio. AS for Mr.. Roosevelt's
wish to maintain neutrality toward the
struggle between Mr. Odell and Mr.. Platt
for the leadership of the New York repub-
licans. it is creditable one; and it is the
senator rather than the governor who
has cause to complain that the Presi-
dent has leaned more to one side than
another Harper's Weekly.

Cams Give Cleveland Up.
The people know Mr.. Cleveland and
they trust him. They know that the
honor of the country would be safe in his

would suffer nothing from his admins
tration. and that he would exhaust all
his authority in the office of President to
preserve the peace OF the world. He is
the only democrat who can be elected,
and for that reason. if for no other, he
ought to be nominated. Il Charleston

Some of our esteemed democratic con-

made me short of breath. My heart

there was constant pain in the small of
my back. My kidneys, liver and stomach
became affected and was about as mis-
cradle as man can be.

would do for me. The first box helped
me and seven boxes cured me entirely,
