Faurteen OF Them

IF the question now agitating the
country as to pensioning our ex-presi-
dents should come to Vermont in the
form of what shall we do for our ex-
governors thirteen ofem, we believe
it might prove a matter of consider
able embarrassment to the treasury.
Anent the main questionable best
thing about Cincinnatus of old was
that he returned to his plow. What's
the matter with our ex-presidents,
ex-governors, ex-congressmen and
ex-selectmen doing the same KAN
dolph Herald.
Brer Johnson is usually very much
up-to. date, but he must be a little
ahead of the procession in speaking
of Vermont as having thirteen living
Elk .Governors, for all of the fourteen
following were very much alive at
last accounts, viz:
Holhrook, Stewart, Proctor, Bar
stow, Pin5ree Ormsbee, Dillingham;,
Page, Woodbury., Grout, Smith,
Stickney, Mccullough and Bell.
The nestor of the lot is Ex-Gov.
Eolbrook, who will be 95 years old
next month, and must be alive, very
much so, for he was re elected Pres
ident of the old Vermont Savings
Bank at BrattIeboro at its recent
annual meeting. Next to Holbrook
comes Stewart, one OF the best pre-
served men in our state, with head
as clear and a judgment as level as
when he was elected Governor thirty
eight years ago. Then comes our
senior Senator, Proctor, who seems
to be bearing his weight Of nearly
II years finely. All the rest of the
crowd are risky boys" just as
ready for fun, fight or frolc as they
ever were.
Oh no, Brer Johnson, Vermont's
have passed the I'M
ucky number thirteen, and we not
only hold the record for having the
oldest living Ex- Governor in the
United States, but by more than two
20 one the largest number of Ex-Gov-
,rnors of any State in the Uu1on, and |
hey are all living examples of what
lean, temperate, industrious lives
produce in the matter of longevity.
