The first annual poultry exhibition
at Hardwick was a great success,
over 500 birds being shown. The
Hardwick Gazette said of st.
Johnsbury exhibitor:
A fine barred Plymouth Rock
cockerel owned by Fl. L. Penniman
of ST. .Johnsbury and who had re-
Gently taken first prize in class of
26 at the state poultry show in ST.
Adams, was on exhibition. This fine
bird is valued at 500 and even the
most unenlightened on these sub
jects can see that he is no ordinary
Glow down. rooster. His particularly
fine points are his perfect shape and
the distinct barring of his feathers
which is unbroken to the very skin.
Mr.. Penniman also exhibited a fine
display of Bramah hens and cocker
els, and some remarkably fine geese
and ducks.

An Explanation

This one thing in the meat business I
try to do and do we'll, MAKE SAUSAGE.
I do not conduct general meat business
and then put any odds and ends not
suitable for other uses into Sausage. 1
buy good pigs and all good meat, lambs,
sirloins, tenderloins and enough fat
pork to make suitable mixture to make
into sausage. The seasoning is the old
fashioned kind, sage, salt and pepper.
Great care is used that no Objectionable
bit is retained and that everything is
entirely clean.
Lastly, the meat is cut, not ground
of course it costs a little more but it is
worth it. Look the other kind up and
see if you don't think so.

Still Reading The CALIFORNIAN and
Practicing Law.
Minneapolis. Jan. 20, 1912.
T of Caledonian,


Minneapolis. Jan. 20, 1912.
Editor of Caledonian,
St. Johnsbury, Vermont.
My dear, sir
In your issue of the 18th inst. 1
noticed a complimentary reference
by your Washington correspondent
to the long time ago law firm of
Belden, Ide and Stafford and other
Vermonters who have gotten above
the first round in the ladder of
fame. These facts suggest to me
the propriety of a reference to some
other rather. ancient events.
l made my appearance above the
horizon on August 80, 1871 and
found that The CaledOnian had pre-
coded that event something more
than four years.
Some subsequent history may be
of interest to your paper and it's
readers. 1 commenced reading The
Caledonian at Lyndon in 1861, and
have been a constant subscriber, as
remember, since 1880. In Dec
ember, 1884, my family, including
myself, came to this city and we
have taken The Caledonian ever
since that date.
In the article constituting the
text of this letter there is one minor
error that l desire to correct. It
refers to my condition of health as
being rather feeble" This was true
two years ago, but since then 1 have
so far recovered my health that /
have within the past two months
organized a new law firm, as indi-
Gated by the announcement herewith
enclosed. do not suggest this as
an advertisement, but as fact, in
ested.
Very truly yours,
HENRY G. BELDEN.

Without any especial inclination
to butt in, the Independent would
like to see the Democrats nomi-
nate Harmon of Ohio, for president
AS there is every assurance that
Taft Will be the Republican nomi-
nee, it looks like another Ohio
man, and one who mighe be depend
ed upon, if elected, to give a wise
and satisfactory administration,
would at least be a stroke of policy
on their part. AS a matter of fact
our Democratic brethren will have
to learn that something like the unit
ed strength of their party, as well
as share of the Independent
vote, is necessary to elect presi-
dent. Loyalty to the West or to the
South is commendable, but, when
pitted against the more densely
populated East, there is nearly al
ways a shortage of electoral votes.
The country is getting into splendid
shape again from a political view
point of the two old parties. If the
Democrats do not "foozle" in the
selection of candidate. the vote
for president promises to be closer
contest than it has been for many
long years. If. however. the Demo
Gratis nominate a man who Is only
the idol of a section OF the United
States, the result is likely to be
the same as it has been for the past
sixteen years.

shouting. Theme came the balloting
1t required PA votes to nominate

1he votes were counted and it was
time for i.AoLher ballot. The Sew
ard men We're desL crate. They
had predicted that their candidate
would receive a two-thirds vote on
the first ballot and he had fallen far
short of a majority. A delegate
arose to protest. against what he
himself only knew-and a few mo-
ments of pickering followed. The
crowd, keyed to a high tension, was
all at once in a rage, and shouts
OF 'call the roll" came angrily from
the sides of the hall.
The second roll call began, and
vo<s that had be on &C st for favorite
sons were given to Lincoln. AL
most everywhere where votes were
changed they were flung to the Ill
inois man, and a count of the sec
ond ballot gave Seward 1S4h, Lin
coin ISL. Lrncoln had gained 70
votes, Seward only IL.

ced than the taking of the third
ballot began. Delegates and spec

hands, took down the vote GA

from Bates of Missouri 13. In all

votes of the nomination. Already
the tellers were counting the votes,

stiffness.

on his chair. He was David X. Car

BELIEF IN CONSERVATISM.

That a majority of people believe
in conservatism in both business
and politics is evident.
We once heard a man ask: Which
is the safest bank in Denver to de-
post money in?" The friend with
whom he was talking answered,
giving the name of certain bank.
But why are you SO positive
asked the wouldbe depositor. BE
cause ia my opinion, that bank is
the most conservative in its business.

number of years; therefore ] regard
1t as the safest and 1t would be my
choice"

bright and early. The Seward ad-

the Lincoln men hurried to the wig

BY the time the Seward parade was
over the wigwam was SO crowded
that there was barely room for the
Seward delegates and none for the
camp followers who had helped to
swell the parade.
The convention came to sem

Seward was placed in nomination.
Then Judd of Illinois nominated

coin was seconded by the Indiana
delegation and a roar of applause
went up from the Lincoln men.
