From the It. Johnshury Calcdonian.l
The hum and buzz among our exchanges
over the choosing of candidate for second
place on the State ticket does not abate, as
will be noted by certain para graphs quoted
in another column. The interest increases
as the time for the convention approaches,
and some very pleasant things are being
said in divers quarters about Caledonia
county's leading candidate, Hon. H. c..
Bates We have yet to find an exchange
which deems him unfit for the po-
sition-which denies that he is an
excellent presiding officer. or that
claims he is SO thoroughly unac-
quainted with State affairs as to be'disqual-
flied for second place The west side papers
are not talking very loudly ON this subject
as yet. AMI are evidently waiting for fur
tier developments on the east side. Wind
sor county casts an occasional shy glance at
the lieutenant governurship, and would fur
nish a man if urged to do so. 1t behoove,

The Vermont DcmOcratS

The democratic campaign in Vermont is
never n very animated affair, inasmuch as
perpetual defeats by overwhelming MAORI
ties are not conducive to the development of
a spirit of enthusiasm, and the most that
keeps the organization alive is the occasional
advantage which comes to some of the lead
ing members from belonging to the winning
party in a national campaign. Now that
the time and place of the next State con
vcntion have been selected our democratic
friends will naturally begin to look around
to see whom they can persuade to stand up
for the purpose of being Knocked down as a
candidate for governor. The nomination
would naturally go to the Fast side this
year, but for obvious reasons the democrats
are not very strenuous about the observance
of the rule of alienation between the two
sides of the State The name of T. W.
Moonev of Rutland seems to be most
prominently mentioned for the democratic
nomination for governor, but there are
240 towns which remain to be heard from.
A democratic State convention without a
repetition of the scenes Of dissension which
have made recent gatherings of this sort
memorable would be like democratic Con
grcss with Thomas b. Reed left out, but the
indications are that visitors to the next dem
ocratic convention will he disappointed il
| they expect big fight on the old lines. Eek
Mayor Haselton of Burlington, who wa
one of the leaders Of the opposition two anC
four years ago, will not be likely to fgur'
in any assault upon the powers that he il

rect his attention toward Nenezeula. an,
the other men who figured prominently il
the old anti fight will undoubtedly be foun
to have had their stingers drawn.
The Vermont democrats will undoubtedl
disagree with some of their Souther
brethren and endorse the administration
but it will bother them, we imagine, to de
eide which of the democratic tariff bills t
ratify, the original W ison bill as reporte
to the Senate, the revised Wilson bill II
ported to the Senate committee by I'll
finance committee of that body, or the Col
man revision, which processes to be the r.

The efforts which have been in progress
for the past few years to direct general at
tention to the many attractions of Vermont
as a summer resort, have been attended
with gratifying results The number of
summer visitors to the State have increased
to an encouraging degree, and the indica-
tions are that the coming season will see
more strangers within the gates of the Green
Mountain park than ever before Vermont
abounds in green hills, about which wind
graceful and sparkling streams, and the
rugged mountain scenery is enlivened by
island studded lakes, which have been Xix
ened to amcthysts set in Trainings of emer-
aid. The air of the Green Mountains is
crisp and pure, the attractions for the disc-
pies of l2ank Walton are unexceled, and it
is undoubtedly a fact that no State in the
Union combines greater number and di-
versity of attractions for summer tourists
than does our own.
To possess all these manifold attractions
is one thing; to acquaint the people in gen
eral with that fact is altogether another
matter. The modern merchant has discov-
cred that it is advertising rather than com
petition which is 'the life of trade, " and SO

more uncertain advertising which is passed

From the Bellows Falls Times.
We expressed an opinion nearly four years
ago to the effect that COL L. a. Woodbury.
was one of the very few men in Vermont
who had reason to expect later recognition
from Vermont republicans. The average
politician who airs his 'caimn upon any
party is showing up Il mighty ephcmeral
substance, but in Col. Woodbury. we believe
the exception proving the rule is found, and
without opening an old battle of discussion
which four years since left unqucstiOned the
ability, fitness and clean character of the
man, we favor his nomination to the
governorship.
Another and contingent reason for the
nomination of Col Woodbury. is our firm
belief that no other selection can bring to
tho polls in the coming election so heavy a
republican vote In the nomination of n
candidate without acrimonv and wasted
ammunition within republican ranks, we see
the surest augurv Of n republican vote
which was never greater in Vermont, "A
vote which the Green Mountain State may
send ont TO eager republicans everywhere as
n token that she knows her full duty in these
times of temporary democratic ascendancv,
and that upon occasion she can express
her opinion with all the emphasis neces
sarv to be understood. And So. we place at
the head of our column the name of Col.
L. A. Woodbury. as governor. There is
also to be nominated lieutenant governor
which is another story. -
