eminent passed and then came the
Declaration of independence when
time and won the admiration of the
whole world was established. Those
men, the signers of that declaration
were, as Hoar said, The greatest ma
tion-builders the world has ever
known
Liberty met it's first check because
all Christendom was given over to
the slave trade. From the time OF
William and Mary to George the
Third, colonial governors were COM
manded to keep supply of market
able negroes on hand to sell to the
colonies. Mother England forced
slaves upon us. All the States ex-
cept Georgia and South Carolina de-
clared against the traffic but the gov
ernors were instructed to veto and
forbid such laws.
I'm the next eleven years after the
Declaration of independence during
which we began the establishment of
a centralized government we came
again to the same evil. Seven of the
Is States abolished slavery. Vermont
after it's separation from New York,
wrote into its original constitution a
declaration against traffic within its
borders, the first State to take this
action. But when the constitution
was presented for adoption, it was of
supreme Importance that all the
States should join in a union and our
forefathers, thinking the slave trade
on the downward path, allowed its
recognition until 1908 in order that
Georgia and South Carolina might
unite with the sister States. Senti-
ment ran high, however. Mason's
prophecy, Providence Furnishes ma
tional sin by national calamity was
perfectly fulfilled by our scourging
in the sixties. To show how deeply
rooted was the sentiment against sla-
very, Jefferson's ordinance forbidding
the traffic in the Western lands was
defeated by majority of one.
"In 1908 came the Louisiana pur-
chase and the invention of the cot
ton gin which revolutionized the cot
ton trade of the South Profitable
under the old regime it be-
became far more so under the new.
In addition, the hand loom had been
replaced in Great Britain by the pow
er loom and England was crying for
cotton. Slaves tripled in value. In
1900, we were raising $4,000 bales;
in 1880. 977.000 bales and after Great
Britain took off the cotton duty, we
were raising five million bales. Cot
ton was king. That which had been
an abominable crime in the eyes of
jefferson became righteous insti-
tuition In the eyes OF church and
State. The effect of slavery was to
look down upon labor and deem the
laborer mental, Calhoun termed

MEAD LOSING STRENGTH
PEOPLE RESENTING YANCE'S
PROMISE TO DELIVER ESSEX
co. TO RUTLAND MAN.
Fleetwood Gaining Strength In That
Section, But Not Certain Yet How
Many Towns Will Break Away
From the Doctor.


Lunenburg, June 1.-Earlier in the
season it had been pretty generally
conceded that Essex county would
support the candidacy of DR.. John A..
Mead, of Rutland, for the Republican
nomination for Governor. The sit
uation today, however, differs very
materially from that of few weeks
ago. The change of sentiment is due,
in part at least, to recent visit made
to this town by Frederick G. Fleet
wood, of Morrisville, also a candi-
date for the Governorship. Mr.. Fleet
wood made an excellent speech which
was very well received and won many
friends for him.
1t has been reported that Senator
Martin Van Buren, Vance of this town
who represented Essex county in the
Senate of 1908, promised to deliver
Essex county for Mead. This promise
apparently did not please some other
Essex county men and they determin-
ed to show Senator Vance that he was
not in position to deliver the goods.
Now there is a hot fight on in town
with excellent prospects that Fleet
wood delegates will be elected here.
1t Is not ct certain how many other
towns in the county will break away
from Mead but it now appears prob
able that he will have by no means a
solid county delegation.

believes he alone will be able to secure

nected with the late Charles T. Ycrkes's
tube undertakings in London, has
three specific proposals for those visi-
tors who mean to take a hand in
restoring TO Ireland her former great
ness in the industrial and commercial
world.
They consist Of three lines Of rail
ways, which will be known, should the
schemes materialize, as the Sligo and
Arigna railway. the Kilkenny, Castle
conner and AthY railway, and the
Queenstown, Cloyne and Ballycotton
railway and works. Parliamentary
powers have been secured toward their
construction.
