Candidates for Auditor.

Horace F. Graham of Craftsbury will
be presented to the Republican state
convention as a candidate for state
auditor to succeed o. NJ. Barber, and
will have a strong backing. Mr.. Ora
hams record in professional and bust
ness life makes a strong argument in
his behalf. He is 40 years old and
was admitted to the Vermont bar in
1883, after graduation from the Colum.
bia college law school, and has since
been in active practice Of the law at
Craftsbury. He has had business ex-
perience as a member Of two large
lumber manufacturing firms. He was
a member of the House in 1892 and
again in 1900, filling places on leading
committees at both sessions. He has
beer states attorney for Orleans coun-
ty since 1898. In 1900 ne was presi-
dental elector. Mr.. Graham is a
strong man in his home community,
and those who know him best believe
that he possesses in a high degree the
qualities of legal knowledge, business
insight and independence and firm
ness of conviction. which are necessary
for the protection of the states inter
ests in the auditors office.
Horace w. Bailey of Newbury will
also be a candidate for this office.
Mr. Bailey's experience has been main
ly in the way of business life, first as
merchant in Newbury village, but
since 1890 in the settlement OF es-
tates and other similar offices of trust.
He is town clerk of Newbury, has been
superintendent of schools, and for sew
eral years trustee Of the Bradford saw
ings bank He is not educated in the
law, although his friends claim for
him that his knowledge of the law is
sufficient to enable him to perform the
duties of state auditor satisfactorily.
S. w. Finn. a young lawyer of st.
Adams, is also a candidate. His
friends urge his selection on the
ground that he will straighten out evils
in connection with the liquor agen-
cies.
