Election Returns.

The democrats can derive whatever
feeling of hopefulness in the future
they are able to from the result of last
week Tuesdays election. 1t is diff
cult to see wherein they find cause for
rejoicing, but some of the democratic
organs in the country appear very ju-
biliant over the result of the Vermont
election. Complete returns from the
state give Smith, republican, 8,199;
Moloney, democrat, 14,616; Wyman,
prohibitionist, 1920; scattering 30.
Smiths plurality is 1928, which looks
we'll when compared with the average
republican plurality of p, 145 for the
last four off years. The Senate is sol
idly republican. In the House there
will be 2O3 republicans, 40 democrats,
two popullsts and one prohibitionist.
The above figures may indicate to the
far-seeing democrat that Vermont has
some idea of changing It's politics but
they are perfectly salts
factory to the repu blican party.

A very handy and comprehensive Guide
to Boston has just been published by the
Mechanic Fair Committee and is being
eagerly sought by intending visitors to
the Exhibition, as well as by others who
contemplate trip to the metropolis. The
book is up-tO-date, with readable descrip-
tions of BostOns most notable points and
objects of interest, and will be found very
handy for reference. The big building Of
the Massachusetts Charitable Mechanic
Association on Huntington Avenue is
rapidly being prepa ed for the exhibition
which will open October 10th and which
will undoubtedly prove the most impor-
tant and interesting ever given by this
organization. The committee has deCid-
ed that anyone sending TWO cent stamp

Spanish Prisoners Return.

The 1900 Spanish prisoners who
have been the guests of Uncle Sam
since the destruction of Cevera's fleet
have returned home sleek, fat and
healthy. Admiral Cevera returned
with them. They have enjoyed them
selves as prisoners of the United
States and were not at all anxious to
say goodbye Expressions of gratitude
for the kind treatment received were
on the lips of them all as. they left their
camp for the steamer. 1t IS singular
for prisoners of war to feel grateful
toward their captor but the United
States, victorious in all its wars, has
always been kind to its captives.
When the Spaniards were captured
they expected harsh treatment, for
they had been taught to expect moth
ing else from the yankee Hogs" and
they were much surprised to be greet
ed as friends and treated as such.
They will always remember their stay
in Portsmouth and will have a good
word to say in their native land con.
corning Uncle Sans kindness and
generosity. We received them crush
ed in spirit and sick; we return them
contented and in good health. Ad-
miral Cevera has been profuse in his
praise of Americans and the way his
officers and men have been treated.
He is a brave soldier, courtly gen
tleman, and has made many friends
during his stay in this country.

New York's Next Governor.

Theodore Roosevelt was a promi-
nent man before the American public
before our war with Spain but there
are now none more prominent. His
organization of that famous regiment
of cavalry known as 'Teddy's Rough
Riders" made him much talked about.
Part of the regiment were in Shafter's
expedition to Cuba, were among the
first to land and saw the first fighting.
And what fighting it was. 1t made the
regiment famous and Col. Roosevelt
still more famous. He is one of the
heroes of the war and New York, his
state, stands ready to give him most
anything he wants. But he doesn't
ask for anything, he is too big forfhat

as theif candidate for governor ami are
most certain to nominate him. He is
a little obnoxious to PIatt and a few
other like politicians because he has a
habit of doing what he thinks is right
regardless of its effect upon the power
of the ring. Platt would like candl-
date who would consult him before
acting and then act accordingly But
Roosevelt is a statesman and not pol
itician. Platt would have little intiu-
ence with him. This would be dis
tasteful to Platt, who has therefore
been inclined to oppose the Roosevelt
boom but with no result. A great wave
of popular enthusiasm demands that
the colonel of the famous Rough Rid
ers shall be the next republican candi-
date for governor of New York. The
wave is constantly growing III size and
will not be pushed back. Roosevelt
will be nominated and, it is hoped,
elected. The democrats, under the
leadership of Boss Croker, are making
a mi. hty effort to bring all factions of
the party into harmony with each 9th,
er, and are preparing for a big fight.
They want the state IN their control
once more.
Every one of the Rough Ri lers have
the most friendly feeling for Roose-
welt and he feels the same towards
them. They have been through scenes
that bind men close together. ROose
welt made an address before his men
a week or two ago which contained
some excellent advice, not only for the
Rough Rider but for everybody. Here
is an extract:
against Don't 90 back and lie on your
laurels, they'll wither. The world will
be kind to you for about ten days and
then it will say, "He's spoiled by the
fame of the regiment in Cuba" Don't
think you have got to have the best of
everything, and don't consider yourselves
as martyrs in the past tense. A martyr
came to see me today. He, hadn't had
any milk for whole day. | said to him,
ooh, you poor thing - and he went away.
| hope he felt better. What | want of
all of you is to get right out and fight
your battles in the world as brayely as
you fought the nations battles in Cuba.
There were some people in my tent to-
day, and one of them said, You must
have been awfully bold to go right up
that hill in front of your regiment"
said "That wasn't it, exactly" Now, |
beg the chaplain's pardon, for ! said, Il
had to run like HI to stay in front and
keep from being run over"
The chaplain was at first inclined to
be shocked but quickly changed his
mind and joined with the rest in a
good hearty laugh.

stead of Friday morning as was expected
and when it took place many of Mrs
Jones supporters were not in the hall.
A number of the Vermont ladies were
not even there. Wednesday evening in
dicatiOns pointed plainly towards the
election of Mrs Jones, as seen by those
in the inside. If the election had taken
place with all the delegates present the
chances are that she would have been
elected. The candidates we're Mrs. Flo
JamiSon Miller of Illinois, Mrs. CaliSta
r. Jones of Vermont, and Mrs. Harriette
J. BODICE of Connecticut. Mrs. Dodge
withdrew from the contest and the ballot
resulted in the election of Mrs. Miller.
Mrs. Jones took her defeat gracefully as
the following from the CINCINNATI Com
mercial Tribune ,of last Friday will show
"a beautiful incident of the afternoon
session occurred after the vote for nation
al president was declared. The with
drawal of Mrs. Dodge left in the field
Mrs. Miller OF Illinois and Mrs. Jones OF
Vermont. When the result OF the vote
was announced Mrs Jones moved the
unanimous vote of the debates be cast
for the successful candidate, and request
ed the privilege of presenting the presl-
dent elect, which she did in manner to
excite the admiration of the convention,
and many expressions favorable to Mrs.
Jones as a candidate for president at the
next national convention were heard.
The Commercial Tribune of last week
Sunday spoke of Mrs Jones as follows;
"Calista r. Jones, the Junior Yice-pres-
ident, is one of the women of the Relief
Corps whose work goes back to the war
day She is native of Chelsea, Vt, and
lives at present in Bradford, that state.
She was teaching in Chicago when the
war broke out, and all her spare hours
were given to the work of the Sanitary
Commission. She has filled many offices
both in her own corps and in the Yer
mont Department and was one of the
first members of the National committee
of Patriotic Teaching. Mrs. Jones will
be formidable candidate for the office
of National Commander at this weeks
convention"

Uncle Sans Golfers Foil.

Uncle Sam has every reason to be
happy. The only thing to disturb the
equilibrium of his peaceful and CON
tented state of mind is the wrangle
concerning the war department. He
has come out of war with flying col
Ors, bills all paid and pockets still full
of money. His circumstances are bet
ter for another war than they were for
the last one when itNcommenced. The
bond issue put 5000, 900, 900 into his spa
ciOus Golfers The war revenue which
requires that a tax be put upon about
everything will yield probably $40,
100000 at the end of the current fiscal
year. That makes 1910, 100000. I'M
ports are on the increase and at the
end of the current fiscal year are likely
to add $4,000, 900 to the ordinary rev.
enues of the government under the old
law. The total cost of the war is now
estimated at S235, 100000. Therefore
it can easily be seen that unless the
war taxes are repealed Uncle Sam will
soon have an enormous surplus on
hand for which there is no apparent
use. If there is no danger of war be-
ing resumed the tax might as well be
repealed. The people of this country
are patriotic and have not complained
in helping out towards the expenses of
the war, but they are not anxious to
continue licking revenue stamps to at
tach to numerous papers necessary in
transacting business any longer than is
necessary. Neither do they enjoy see
ing 100000 taken out of their pockets
every day to be put where it isn't
needed. If the war is over and money
is plenty there appears to be no fur
