Vermont congressional elections
will be held. In % states com.
plete new state tickets will be voted
for. In some of the states the gu.
bernatorial fights are considered
characteristic and indicative of the
struggle two years hence, when a
new president will be chosen. Not

such interest. Politicians of the old
school say that conditions today
are similar to those of 1890.

feeling that Sullivan has been
charged with grave crimes person

to the superior court against
trial, resign his office, and then
induce a whitewash by the police
board, in advance of the hearing
by the city council.
