The nomination Of Hon. D. J. Eos

Congress from the First district can
truthfully be set down as a surprise to
this section of the state. Such an out
come was hardly considered, and this,
too, in spite of the fact that Foster was
Pages leading rival when votes were
counted up. 1t simply shows how
mighty uncertain politics is, for no one
would have been so rash three months
ago as to predict his success. Even
when he carried Burlington handsome
ly and secured nearly all of Chitten-
den and portions of Addison, Frank
lin and Grand Isle, he was hardly con-
sidered in the running. 1t was be-
lieved that he was merely a stalking
horse for Powers and that after the
first ballot nearly all Of his strength
would 90 to Powers. But when the
delegates got together it was found
that Powers could not hope to win.
The only hope Of beating Page lay in
the opposition on some one
man before Page could draw the wa
vering to his side. Page led on the
first ballot and was certain to 90 far to
the front on the next. So, in pursu-
lnce of the "anything-to-beat-Pager
plan, all the anti-Page forces rushed
% Foster and the scheme succeeded so
we'll that the third ballot was decisive
y in his favor Without trying to do
Foster any injustice, we can but say
hat he does not possess the confidence
# people generally as much as any of
he other candidates, but he has a
nance now to show his worth and his
areer will be watched with interest.

The appointment by GOV. Smith,
made Monday, of Hon. Wendell P.
Stafford Of st. Johnsbury to succeed
the late Judge Thompson will be re-
ceiyed with favor in all quarters.
Judge Stafford is the youngest man
who ever took a seat on the Vermont
supreme bench-only 39-but in
knowledge of the law, judicial acumen
and unblemished private character he
knows no superior in the state. His
appointment was favored by all the
other Judges, who have had opportuni-
ty to estimate his worth by reason of
his services As reporter of court decis-
ions the past several years. He comes
from locality Of the state, too, which
has a good claim to a iudeeship.

the least. it had stood by him he
would have led from the start aud

for the encouragement and support
given to the Stafford men by this Barre

Stafford column would have figured to
anything like the extent it did. But
Barre missed the consummation of its
hopes, for when the break from Plum
ley came it was not. as had been hoped.

been counted on to 90 that way.
