PROCTOR FOR v1CE-PREsIDENT
No man in the United States is better
qualified for the second place on the ticket
than our distinguished Senator, Redtield
Proctor; indeed, 1t Is doubtful IL the party
has a man, who, in mental equipment,
business sagacity and political astuteness
can surpass him. A ticket composed Of
william Mckinley of Ohio and Rednsd
Proctor Of Vermont would be invinciblc,
and would sweep the country next Nevem-
Der.
The great Republican sentiment Of the
country assures us Of McKinley's nqmina-
ton. 1t rests with Vermont to say wheth.
err or not she shall claim recognition at St.
Louis. Heretofore Vermont has been USE
full in furtherins schemes for advancing
the ambitions of others than her own
sons. forgetting that she has always re-
mained true and stesdfast to Republican
principles--that she has men In every
way qualified to flll the most responsible
positions In gift OF the party, and always
supinely submitted to be treated as If OF
no account in national politics beyond
casting her vote for the party nominees.
The time is auspicious for a change, and
/ Vermont should be an aggressive force
in the councils of the Republican party
| this year, by firmly insisting that her
years of devotion to party principles and
nominees be recognized by the nomination
! of Redned Proctor for vice-presdcnt.

the delegation were to be instructed In an
iron clad manner for Mckinley. This is
the statement of men who were most &C
tive in forcing through a Mckinley reso-
luton.
The motion made Immediately after or
ganization to refer all resolutions to the
committee on resolutions without debate
set the Mckinley ball rolling at the very
outset. 1t not only afforded the Mckinley
radicals the opportunity they desired, but
the evident attempt to prevent declara-
ton fired their zeal. and 1t is claimed that
the instruction OF the delegation outright
for Mckinley was only narrowly averted.
But for this motion to refer, 1t is alleged
that the resolution naming different candi-
dates but expressing a preference for Nc
Knley would have been introduced.
From the standpoint of those who de-
sired to follow Vermont's precedent.
therefore, the motion to refer resolutions
| without debate was a mistake that was
materially enlarged by thee failure Of the
mover to at once accept the amendment
to refer all except presidential resolutions,
instead Of fighting the amendment to a
vote, as was done, only to- meet ultimate
and more marked defeat.
These are the facts as we have been able
to gather them in relation to the presi-
Dental contest at the Vermont republic
can convention. Tho Mckinley resolution
of endorsement was passed by an en-
thusiastic as well as overwhelming vote.
This result was reached, not through out
side manipulation or the management OF
the political leaders Of the State, but
through the spontaneous action of the
people az a whole as opposed to the poll
ticians as class. II any systematic cleo
| uousering was dous. II osrsainly was not
