The announcement of the gubernator-
ial nomination candidacy of Pereiyal w.
Clement, coming at a time when it APP
peared on the surface that there was to
be no important opposition to the candi-
dacy of Fletcher ID. Proctor, is welcome
news. 1t is probable that even Mr.. Proc
tor is grained. Up to the moment Of
Mr. Clements unlocked for declaration
of intention there appeared to be no
prospect Of contest worthy Of the
name and indications were that the lust
for political battle inherent in every right
minded citizen would have to 20 unsatis-
fed 50 far as the next nomination for
governor il concerned. This condition
would Of course rob the victorious candi-
date of so much satisfaction as is de-
rived from the success IN hard fought
struggle, besides exercising a soporife
Influence upon the Republican party of
Vermont at large.
Mr.. Clement, having entered the
arena, may be depended upon to make
rs stout fight as he is able to and The
gubernatorial convention viii be far
from prefunctory affair. This is as
it should be, for there Is nothing So
deadening to the popular sense Of po-
litical responsibility as cut and dried
bestowal Of nominations for important
Office, no matter how estimable may be
the recipients.
Though there Is already an evident
tendency on the part Of portion Of
the state press to pooh-pooh the i'm
portanee Of Mr.. Clements candidacy, it
Is not to be truthfully denied that he is
the one of the very few men SO far
named or limited at who are capable Of
leading a forlorn hope against Mr.. Proc
tors campaign.
A lively contest for the Republican
nomination for governor Of Vermont is
good thing for the party and May
the war wax merry and fair. Deer

This seems little unusual for us, but
now for twelve months .we have got to
make use of this arrangement of figures.
We have seen the old year out and the
new year in. We can review the past
but we can only dream about and, hope
for the future. One year ago, as in many
previous cases, we resolved a great many
things. What have we gathered as the
product of those resolutions? Every yea,

months last past, are we satisfied that
we have, by our personal action, aided
somewhat in the great Onward move

the mental vision forward, are We inspir

The Personal Value Of Money.

I carried with II personal value-heart

The line between economy and thrift
is very narrow sometimes, again 1t
broadens so far AS 10 put economy out of
business. This last is a mistake. Econ
omy gives to money personal value.
1t demands return in the investment
OF personal benefit. some high purpose
accomplished. Thrift will accumulate
much and economy direct its wise ex-
penditure. Thrift carried to excess be-
comes parsimony. Money is then only
a commodity TO hoard and to rate at
market value. The good 1t might do.
the contentment, happiness ana health
it might buy, will be set down as hav-
ing no value compared with what the
money will earn elsewhere.
In the primitive age the naked man
gave backloads of venison or bear meat
that he didn't want to hungry man
In exchange for Il blanket that he did
want. Both parties to the deal were
buyers Of something which to them
had personal value. and who can blame
them for worshipins the money power
expressed In the transaction? BY it a
blanket was made to appease the panss
Of hunger, and meat became a shelter
to ward off the storm.
Love Of money merely because it is
market money Is truly the root Of evil
But to regard money as having n per-
sonal value and then prize it because
Of that value Is noble and even right
eous. Some people have the knack Of
making dollar go long way. Thi,
comes Of investing 1t with a person
value and getting the worth of it on
that basis. And that is how s. can
beat 500 In purchasing power.

THE WOODMEN.
BY RICHARD MAPLEsDRN.

BY RICHARD MAPLEsDEN.
The Woodinen are social class,
And when they work, bring things to
pass;
From first to last it's understood,
The Order is for mutual good.
The trainers of the Order took
Their laws and rules from the Good
Book;
The law of Love is their command,
You're bound to do the good you can.
To Neighbors Camps they take walk,
Aud often have social talk
About the things that's good for man,
And for their good work lay out plan.
Young Woodmen with their axe can fall
And cut the logs, and roll for all;
The old gray-beards can pick the brush
And help the valley sods to crush,
Aud then prepare the barren soil
For Harvests to reward our toll.
In ancient days, when axe was laid
To the thick trees, frame was made.

We believe somewhat in the science OF
teepathy, and SO far as we are able we
shall talk with Governor Bell during the
next few days, and we shall urge him in
the name of the highest humanity and
the most Christlike charity to grant a
reprieve to Mary Rogers. In Gods
name who can be harmed if she is not
hanged? And what individual will be
benefited by the ending of her life? 1t
is easy to talk of the sanctity OF the
law, and the rights of society; aud 1t
seems an easy thing for some people to
joyfully contemplate this poor degener-
ate, misguided and sinned against
woman hanging OH the gallows. Many
say, chang the fiend, she richly deserves
it," This is true from one standpoint.
But should we not inquire as to what
society has done for her during the years
since she was born? Has society tried
its best to raise her from the low level
in which heredity has held her captive
Is society guiltless as she is condemned
to the gallows? Are we all conscience
easy as we see this woman low in
moral conception and deaf to spiritual
truths? We have legal right to take
her life, but will that course the better
fit her soul for eternity, or quicken the
hearts of the p ople to diviner visions
We hope the Governor, who is a Chris
tian gentleman, and a God fearing man.
will listen to the voice of Christlike pit,
and charity, and will 80 act officially as
to follow Him who in His judgments
tempered stern justice with charity.
