The Next Vermont Senate.
burlington Free Fress.)

| Vermont is so strongly republican that
as a rule the candidates whom the repuo,
licans nominate for the upper branch OF
the legislature may safely be put down as
constituting the senate in the following
October. Last year, for example,, this
rule held good. the only exceptions being
in the case of Senator Kennedy OF Chit
tenden county and Senator Wright OF
Grand Isle county. Judging from. all ac'
counts these two counties VIII elect re.
publican senators this year, and 1t would
not be strange if the coming senate, Ike
so many OF its predecessors, were soiidly
republican. If this should prove to be
the case. then the following republicans,
who have been nominated in their respec'
tive counties, would form the next sem
