So much for the feasibility of establishing a naval militia in MONTPELIER. A Gigantic Liquor. Raid Neatly A r-r unfed Illdiug Place 1 iocoTered. Another liquor raid on Tuesday is causing much excitement. Promptly at 7 o'clock iu the morning four saloons were visited.

Sheriff E. W. Howe, with Deputies Cook and Long, called at William Miller's, 120 Main street, where a large amount of liquor was secured on the night of July 3 and made one of the largest seizures yet made in town, comprising two full barrels of whisney, one full barrel of rum, one barrel part full of whiskey, one 20 gallon cask of gin, one 10 gallon cask of rye whiskey, one three and oue two gallon jug of gin, two two gallon and a oue gallon jug of whiskey and a large jar containing about two gallons of whiskey. A short time ago Mr. Miller was drawing barrels of dirt from the back door of his establishment in bis covered wagon and dumping the same in large quantities in the Winooski river, which led officers to think a secret cellar was being constructed.

This was lcoked for, a trap door discovered about midway on the main cellar bottou, underneath it a pit about eight feet square and boarded up on ail sides and in it the liquor seized, which was taken to the town agency. Miller's establishment is undoubtedly the largest wholesale and retail concern in this part of the State, the cellar containing a large quantity of barrels, bottles, jugs, bard cider and other impliments for the trade, and there are three or four cutely contrived hiding places ou the first floors. The trap or dump iu which liquors were Tuesday dumped when the ot'icrs called, aud ammouia afterward thrown in, is shrewdly contrived, being made of plank, about two feet square inside, with iron pipe or bars each way across the bottom, underneath the cellar bottom, connected ith a drain to carry the refuse away. Deputy Sheriff Arthur Jones, assisted by Contable T. J.

Kee-gan, seized a quantity of whiskey from Larry McMann at 5'J main street; Deputy Eilis and assistants got tw bottles of liquor from the saloon of John Glinney and Deputy Camp and assistants made un unsuccessful The South Itoyalgton Hitters were Defeated in the Longest Mine Inning Game Ever Played Here. The game yesterday afternoon was tedious for the spectators, though there were many sharp pieces of work, including two double plays. The players were all tired from their night's journey on the cars and their laziness in getting oil fend on the field between the innings was to some extent excusable. The R.oyalston team is composed of exceptionally hard hitters, and after their victory over the U. V.

M's ou their home grounds, felt certain of winning yesterday. The first inning passed without a man crossing the plate. In the second Kinsella led off with a corking hit; O'Connor placed a liner over the heads of the in-fielders and Kinsella took third. The cranks howled, but were mum a minute later when O'Connor had got caught tryiug to steal second and Stewart had llied out to Sullivan. Tommy Hill couldn't bear to see Kinsella left on third and the first run was scored on his single to right.

Ab bey retired the side by striking out. Three of the visitors were gracefully called out in short order. Iu the second inning Lyman Allen got a life at first ou an out at second, took third on Carmody's wild throw and home on a passed ball. This was followed by a base on balls and singles by Rauney and O'Connor netting another run. The South Roy-alstons made their run in this inning on two bases on balls, a steal of second and a steal homo.

Carmody gave the Vermonts two bases on bails for a starter in the fourth but the men were both retired at second by pretty throws of McCarthy and the Vermonts failed to score, the Royalstons got a man as far as third before the necessary three mm were declared out. The men were easily disposed of on each side in the fifth and the U. V. died without a struggle in the sixth while the visitors' hopes of scoring were spoiled by a double play, in which Kinsella and L. Allen took part.

Both sides "antied" In the seventh but hits were not forthcoming and no score was the result. There was some pretty work done in the eighth on both sides blanks being drawn. Graves got first on balls in the second, which safely landed J. Allen on first. He came home a minute later ou Kinsella' drive over the fence for two bases.

O'Con-uor hit the ball hard. Centre Fielder Mullen catching it right off the fence. The Bay State boys Hied out and the longest nine inning game ever played ou Athletic Park was a thing of the past. The following will show what the players did: SAVINGS BANK. CHARTERED IN 147.

oi the Governorship. The opinion of Editor Grout of the Newport Express in relation to the governorship question having been asked for by the St. Johnsbury Republican the former responds follows: "Our views on the governor question were well expressed recently by our esteemed cotemporary the Monitor, 'upon the aspirant who would open this question this early day, pour a pail of cold water and pour it We will also add that there should be no contest over the next republican candidate for governor. As nearly as possible he should be the spontaneous choice of the people, and should be a man who will poll every republican vote, for it will be presidential year, and the voice of Vermont will be heard throughout the whole land. This paper has no particular candidate for governor, and wiil favor the one, othr things being equal, whose nomination will best promote the harmony and success of the republican party." This is an admirable answer and in making it Editor Grout sums up the ideas of all right-thinking people upon the subject.

The spontaneous choice of the people at the proper time i what the selection of Vermont's governor should always mean, and if this idea is allowed to prevail party harmony and success will take care of themselves. It is to be hoped that the words of the Express may be accepted as the repub lican watchword in the next btate cam paign. Secretary Proctor's Appointment. tFrom the X. Y.

Gov. Page of Vermont has met the high est expectations in choosing Secretary Proc tor to succeed Mr. Edmunds as senator in Congress. Mr. Proctor is admirably quali fied for the office which Mr.

Edmunds has adorned so long; his administration of the war department having given him an enviable national reputation. There will be general satisfaction that his retirement from a post which he has filled with such conspic uous success does not take him out of public life. The country will expect him to maintain as senator the high reputation which he has won as secretary. From the Boston Journal. Gov.

Page of Vermont has met the ex pectations of his constituents, and made the best choice at his by selecting Sec retary Proctor for the seat which Senator Edmunds has relinquished. But what will be the Senate's gain will be the cabinet's loss if Mr. Proctor accepts the distinguished honor, for President Harrison has no more capable, trusted and successful department head than the gentlemen who holds the war portfolio. The Senate contains plenty of millionaires, but for all that it has a lament able lack of broad aDd clear-sighted men of business, with minds above the mere chasing of dollars and cents. Mr.

Proctor will strengthen this eminent body at one of the points at which it is really weakest. Besides his remarkable administrative capacity he has the qualities to make a successful legislator. Vermont's notable prestige in the Senate bids fair to be well maintained. From the X. V.

Times. Gov. Page of Vermont has very properly notified Secretary Proctor of the intention to appoint him to Senator Edmunds's place should a vacancy exist on November 1, as to which there is, of course, no reasonable doubt. The selection is a good one, and Mr. Proctor ii by no means unlikely to be elected for the full term, beginning March 4.

That time flies is shown by the fact that President Grant's visit to Eurlington was nearly twenty years ego, tta exact date being August 8, 1ST2.

It is reported that the Frince of Wales, Emperor William of Germany, and the Shah of Persia all seriously contemplate visiting the world's fair iu 1893. It is to ta hoped that the prince will not bring his baccarat board with him. Edward Atkinson in the September For am says that the ineoaw derived by the treasury from taxes and dntios upon liquors and tobacco is now sufficient to cover all the nornialjjjexpenses of the government, including the army and the navy and in addition thereto the interest upon the public debt. The York Sun criticized President Harrison for referring to Gov. Kill of York as "HU Excellency," sayirz that the use of this title was proper only in two States, llain and Cew Hampshire.

Reference to the State records show that the governor of Vermont was thus addressed as far back as 1777. The 5ew York Herald says that the divorce evil is rapidly increasing and it is to be feared that the cooking reform associations are not doing their full duty. That the victims are not hopeless, however, is shown by the facts adduced by statistics that most divorces are obtained for the purpose of remarriage. It is a significant fact that British ship owners receive year from the people of the United States for doing 63 per cent of their foreign carrying tra le. That goes a good way toward changing the balance of trade between the two countries.

The ship owners of other nations receive 50,000,000 more for like service. If the United States kept one-half of this at home it would make an enormous addition to the wealth and business of this country. The secret of thi3 condition of affairs is that other nations pay immense subsidies to their ship owners. President Harrison's speeches in Vermont are attracting wide attention and eliciting the usual deserved compliments from the press. In this connection the New York Tribune say3 of his speeches on Tuesday: 'Eight speeches were made by President Harrison yesterday on his way from Kara-toga to St.

Albans. If he did not break hh record, he at least went far ahead his nverage, which, during his Western journey, was exactly five speeches per diem. Yesterday's series at Whitehall, and at seven towns and cities in the Green Mountain State were in Harrison's best vein: and in this line one would have to search far and long to find his equal. Especially noteworthy are the touches of local color which give variety and interest to these admirable little addresses. Ia no State is loyalty more pronounced than in Vermont, and the welcome extended to the president at every stopping-point was char acteristically hearty." A Naval Militia for Vermont.

The introduction cf a bill in the Legisla ture providing lor tne estaDiisument ot a naval militia in this State directs attention anew to a subject which has alreadv been presented to the readers of the Fkee Press. This is a project which has found consider able favor in ether States, and in view of cur proximity to tha Canadian boundary, and the exposure of western Vermont to attack by way of water, it is not without importance to Vermcnters. The advan tages arising from the presence of a naval militia as a nucleus in case of an outbreak of hostilities ou cur northern boundary, do cot need to le recounted at this time, the idea being essentially the sama as that which underlies the formation of the na tional gu.u ti. The principal objjctiou to the inception of the Droj'jct comes from outside the State in the shaijo of mi editorial paragraph In the Springfield Repubifcan. Iu this relation the Republican snys The retired r.avr.l rAVt er at Brattleboro, Vt, who is fiii'-i lu the seUeine ot a i.n.Kia fun-a in the towns the Vermont sin ire of Chiiiuplaiii, may be K.l;i; to lue tut rotate o.tu-iais I ar.d cllcct his ou'- having iiaval restrvo cr-iU- he will experience much dittl-enity the suitable oj.poriuai-ik-s -cor iin to au bet en tue Ui-iied slates jinti.in effected i i WT, neither government maintain Lak: more one arL-ied ve-aei, ami tJat crat't shad n-il exceed j' tons ia burden, and it shall bo anue I v.

The hest that could 'e dono under circumsisnci wou.U l-o drill the naval land and that wouid not tend to arouse the enthusiasm necessary for the continued existence ot such a body. If the Republican had taken the trouble to ascertain just what t' -3 method and meaiis of training a naval militia are, it wouid not have mado the above statement in opposition to the establishment of such a force on the Vermont fchore of Lake Cham-plain. As has already been stated in these columns, th' naval militia are provided with facilities for training ia the shape cf models of the different part3 of a ship, including a broadside, and also with means instruction in the dutias of saiiors and gunners, without nctiinlly placing them on shipboard.
