Is What It Looks Like In the Green Noun

New York, September 23.-Bradley
Smalley, member Of the democratic ma
uonal committee, and late candidate for
governor of Vermont, announced tonight
that he had made a discovery which would.
if contested, give to Allen prohibition can
dldate, the office of governor of Vermont.
MIR. Smailey said that while Allen received
bat twelve or fifteen hundred votes, he was
the only candidate for the position who
is eligible. If the conclusions of Chairman
Carter. of the republican, and Chairman
Harrity. of the democratic national commit
tees are correct, neither he nor Levi X.
Fuller, republican candidate who received
a majority of about $4,000 is eligible.
BY advice of counsel both chairnen have
issued circular letter advising any persons
who may have been nominated for presi-
dental electors who nre directors of ma
tional banks, or Who hold public offices of
trust, to forfeit or to withdraw for fear that
they might prove To be ineligible.
The fact is said Mr.. Smalley, that
under this construction both Fuller and my
self were ineligible for we are both directors
of national bank The constitution of
the state of Vermont is very rigid on this
point, and besides affecting Fuller's elcc-
ton 1t will also dehar several members of
the Vermont legsla ture from being sworn
in"
