THE LABoR-ECoNOMICs
Made No Announcement of Their Ticket
 Last Night.

 Last Night. The committee representing the La bor- Economic party met last evening in the Poli building on Church street. The committee announced the night before that the state ticket would positively be made known last evening, but after the session last night the committee stated that the ticket will be announced the last of this week.
 The silver democrats were not repre- scented at the meeting last evening and the two organizations will have nothing more to do with each other. The La bor- Economic party is strongly. opposed to some of the recommendations made by the silver democrats and the latter ; are just as strongly opposed to some of the plans of the Labor Economic lead CTS.
 In response to the question as to whether the candidate chosen to fill the position formerly offered to Mayor Charters would accept the proffered po sition, one of the commit eemen said that the candidate had decided to run and the ticket is complete. The plat l form has been drawn up and it's con- tents will be made known at the time the personnel of the third ticket is an nounced.
 A prominent member of the local branch of the Economic league stated at the close of the session of the com mittee last evening, that the Economic league in New Haven, and the state for that matter, has conducted some of it's transactions in such a manner that he felt safe in predicting the sudden dis appearance of the leagues throughout the state immediately after the coming election.

 best ever heard in this city. All of the participants are too well known to

who make such criticisms don't know
the work that must be done OF the
Washington conditions and presidents.
The frequent complaint is that he has
not done some spectacular thing to
give him and his State national fame,
that he has not done as well as Sen
ator Ross. Such criticisms are really
without point. Only once in
decade, often even longer than that,
do such opportunities come. With
out the opportunity even a Webster
could not make fame. No man can
create an opportunity. In Senator
Ross case the opportunity was open.
The admins ration was cropping in the
dark on the Philippine question. No
one seemed to be able to suggest
way out of the maze. Vermont had
sent to the Senate II man who had oc-
cupied the chief justiceship Of the
State for twenty years.
Here was a man fresh from the peo-
pie, with no bias or prejudices from
the official life of Washington. No
one i'll Washington was so well fitted
to give clear legal and unprejudiced
Judgment of our duties and rights in
the islands. Fortunately for his own
reputation for the administration and
for the country, Senator Ross sized
up the situation, delivered his famous
speech and settled the policy of the
administration. No one with less au-
thority behind him than such Judge
ship could have accomplished similar
results. No one, no matter what his
record could have done it without
the coincident opportunity. The pre-
cedents and prejudices i'll both houses
I /.
leaping into the arena and giving
gage of battle, and woe to the man
who has the temerity to do so except
in the eXtremest case. Beverage i'll
the Senate is an example of n man
who has suffered for his precocity.
National regulations in Congress are
the coinage of slow years of toll. The
people of Vermont must not expect
miracles
