cannot fail, when broadly used, to work
to the advantage OF yermonts agrieul-
tural interests.
In order to encourage the coming of
those people, the state can afford to ex.
pend a sum of money, as is now pro-
posed by leading legislators at Montpe-
her, for the purpose Of advertising the
possibilities of agriculture in Vermont
and for spreading the information that
land can be acquired at reasonable ex.
penditure It is to be hoped, therefore.
that some simple plan will be devised
before the legislature adjourns, by means
OF which many people may be drawn to
Vermont. There undoubtedly is a place
for them here, and they nave the iuclina.
ton, all that is lacking being the in.
formation. So let the present hazy
ideas, promulgated on the subject, be
into concise plan for the
advancement Of the states interests. Let
not the present legislature leave Mont.
pelier finally without having done this
great work. It would be throwing away
a splendid chance il Vermont fails to
do its duty in this respect now.

Additional Senator.

An interesting feature of the census
rs that under its showing Chittenden
county gains a senator. The Senate has
30 members and the state constitution
requires a reapportionment after each
federal census. The coming reappor-
tionment is explained by the Montpelier
Journal Dividing the total population.
55o,956, by 80, gives a ratio of II sos
for each senator. Essex and Grand Isle.
by constitutional provisions, each get a
senator. Dividing the population of
each county by the ratio. IL SOS, the only
change is that Orange county loses one
senator, retaining only one, while Chit
tenden county gains one Chittenden
county has three senators and major
fraction of 1852, while Orange has one
senator and major fraction of 6.s3s.

The Concord, N. H., Monitor thinks
that granite makes a good foundation
for city's growth, and it says to prove
it that
"The city of Barre gained in popula.
ton in the last decade larger number
than any other city or town IN Vermont
and contributed 10 per cent of the total
gain of the state. AS Concord knows,
and Barre, also, proves, granite is a good
foundation upon which to build perma-
nent municipal prosperity"
That is all very true, but Concord
knows full well that it pays to have
other big industries besides quarryine
and manufacturing granite. If it were
not for Concord's Boston g. Maine rail.
road activity and the state capital bust
ness, even Concord granite could not
maintain the position Of that city among
the cities of New Hampshire. In fact.
granite, while perhaps furnishing the
foundation for Concord's development,
is not the greatest factor there now.

AFTER recess and an election
eventful In American politics, the
national legislature is again in
session in Washington. 1t will be
a full year, however, before the re-
suit of the recent elections can be
fully felt In legislation, and by that
time there may be such changes in
commercial, industrial and political
conditions that the intention of the
voters as expressed a few weeks
ago will be modified or in some
instances nullifed 1t is an unfor-
tunate condition that twelve months
must elapse and a session of Con.
gress intervene before the will OF
the country as expression at the
polls can be carried into effect, and
when it is rememb ered that this
condition is fixed in the Constitu-
ton, that fetish of the American
lawyer and statesman, it is difficult
to see how reform can be affected.
1t ls expected that the present
session will address itself TO routine
business, the passage of appropria.
ton bills and necessary non-poliu.
cal measures. The Presidents
proclamation has recommended az a
matter of course important new
Legislation, but there is little pros.
pect of It's being carried out.
Nothing much will be done until
after the Christmas holidays, and
then barely two months of the
Congressional session will remain
before this Congress on the 4th of
March, will be ex.oficio, and. az
has been said, the new Congress
just elected to do and undo go
much will not have It's chance for
twelve months.

Lay I'LL udCOuus
The Wheeling Register and the
Chiltonized Gazette likewise a num-
Der of other Democratic news
papers in this State who take their
cue from these two, not satisfied
with a gentleman's victory, still
continue TO charge fraud in Nc
Dowell and Mingo counties In the
late election.
Among other things the Regis
ter says, "and In the recent cleo.
tion the fact that Mcdowell cous-
ty gave it's usual round majority
for the Republican ticket, while
there was slump in every other
Republican county of the State, in
itself looks suspicious"
There IS not one thing suspicious
about this, that is, TO any fair
minded man acquainted with con-
ditions In Mcdowell county today.
We have the best governed county
in all departments in West Vir-
ginia, none excepted. We have a
Republican organization here where
In there Is no dissentlon, nor party
disloyalty, and these facts, cou-
pied with the general prosperity
Of the people of our county, attribu
table, in a great measure, to the
valiant fight OF our Congressman

in this county wherein one Demo-
crat was refused or hampered In
his right 10 vote his ticket, or
wherein one Republican was illeg-
ally voted, they will have some
sem blance of a case for contest.
They canno, do this; neither
can they show that the Democratic
party did not have representation
at each of the voting precincts. If
they did not have representation,
then the Democratic organ zation
in this county Gf they've got any,
is to blame, and not the County
Court, as they had their remedy.
The sum and substance Of all the
mudslinging of the Democratic
press thus far as to Irregularities in
Mcdowell, is to pave the way for
Democratic congress to name
biased investigating committee,
who, If they cannot find technical
grounds, will make them, and re-
port back aud rely on a Democratic
majority in the lower House to
unseat Congressman Hughes and

AMONG the measures that will
surely have a bearing in the dis

bills will be the subject of the
fertilization of the Panama Canal

party lines in the debate on this
question. Some Republicans aud
some Democrats will oppose the

and Democrats will approve it.
Mr.. Tawney, Chairman OF the APP
preparation committee, who failed

Canal shall be made a free water
way, unguarded by fortresses or
cannon, while those of the Roose-
