what the sun says is wen meant and

knowing so much about Vermont, the
contemporary ought to know that every
thing is not dark gloomy despair in
Vermont, the statistcians to the con

that the state is making considerable
progress along several lines. which Is not
apparent in the Rossitcr article.
AS for the Suns advice to move the
Stale House from Montpelier to Rutland,
that puts a humorous tone to the article
which renders the whole somewhat less
