We are of the opinion that the cleo
ton of Fletcher d. Proctor for governor
will bring to the administration OF the
state government more efficiency, dignity
and honor than would the election of
any other man at the present time.
That the son of Senator Proctor is
worthy of his parent should, perhaps, be
enough to say; but neither he nor his
friends have ever suggested special con-
sideration on account of his parentage.
In the important public offices with
which he has been intrusted he has
shown quiet and safe ability, coupled
with broad judgment and force of char
actar

The Bennington Reformer has col
umn editorial under the caption ITO
succeed Mr.. Barber" A paragraph in
this editorial says "Mr. Bailey is too easy
going, lacks alertness and vigor." Guess
the Reformer is not acquainted with the
gentleman in question. His vigor,
courage and capacity have been proven.
In Essex County the people are glad to
have an opportunity of seconding so
capable and honest, so vigilant and
vigorous man as Mr.. Bailey for the
position of State Auditor. In ability,
education, experience, ''alertness and
vigor" he is all that the position demands.
He has performed the duties of every
position which he has occupied to the
entire satisfaction of the public. He
stands very high in the estimation of the
people of Essex County. His honesty
and independence of action are I'M
questioned, and his moral character
will bear the highest test The i'm
preston is quite general in this vicinity
that he will be nominated and his
friends are sanguine that his admins
tration of the office will be such that he
and they can look back upon with pride
and satisfaction.

Attend the Caucus.

As within a few days republican prl-
mary elections will be held all over the
state to select delegates to the different
conventions the HERALD rises to say
that it is the duty of every republican
voter to go to the caucus and cast his
vote for delegates to these conventions
This is duty too often neglected by
voters. The great majority are too apt
to limit their participation in politics to
a single vote at each state election. The
place to make your influence felt is at
the primary meetings-the political
fountain head. Select your bes: men as
delegates.

casions a. this Ne cannot oonfine our
Thoughts to the dead. II Is fitting that |
We should also express our gratitude To
the living for their heroic sacrifice aud
service. Nor should Se forget those
who at home suffered aud toiled aud
PRAYED; the noble women who, sending
forth their brothers and husbands and
sons waited with an awful dread the un-
certain issue. They also serve who
only stand and wait" Thinking much,
AS We are sure to do, OF the human ele-
ment in that great struggle, we should
also remember the Divine favor without
which the victory would have been i'm
possible. The text has reference 10
this element. Samuel led the people TO
recognize that after many years of de-
feat the victory which had at last been
won was due to the help of Jehovah.
The stone he set up was fitting recog-
milton of Divine help. 1t is equally fit
/ ting that We who have through all our
history been SO signally favored should
also express our gratitude to God. True,
the Civil War was brought about by po-
| litical causes, but back of all these was
the Christian religion. The teachings
of Christ caused the thought of human
! slavery To be intolerable to a Christian
people. God was in this great move
ment aud gave the victory TO the side
of right Remembering the human sac
rifice in behalf of our nation and the
favor of God so clearly granted unto us,
it is plainly our duty to preserve our
heritage 10y making this land charac-
terzed by justice and righteousness.
There is still an opportunity to do heroic
service for our country. The battles to
be fought on moral battle fields demand
all the courage We possess. Our nation
calls today for men, men who will value
manhood more highly than wealth or
position; who will display courage and
conviction in the use of the ballot; who
will resist the encroachments of that
arch enemy of our liberties, the liquor
traffic who will stand firmly to defend
the Sanctity of the home. In these ant
in many other ways there is an oppor
tunity for heroism as truly as ever ii
, the past. The best monument We car
erect, is a righteous nation. The bes
way TO show our gratitude to God and t.
man is to make this people who's
God is the Lord"

1t has been some time since the
smaller towns in the state have been so
deeply interested in gubernatorial
campaign as is the case this year. 1t is
not SO much question as to which of
the three candidates, per Sc, is the best
man for governor, since any one of the
three would make an excellent occupant
of the executive chair so far as general
ability is concerned. But, as between
the three, distinct issue has been laid
by one Of them, and that an issue in
which every voter in every town has, or
should have, a keen interest. The
smaller localities are awake, we say; and
when that is the case the larger localities
do not have things all their own way

Very little is said about the District
Convention these days, so completely
does the governor question overshadow
other issues. Another reason is that
the people have settled down to the con-
viction that Kittredge Haskins having
so fully proved his usefulness as an ener-
getic, live congressman should be re-
nominated and he will be, without OPP
position. He is a broad-minded hard
working member, with an eye single to
the accomplishment of the welfare OF
his constituents and the country.

Why not cry" Fraud"?

"Whole number of votes cast, $780,"
"Only 497 names were checked off the
list, though all passed the challenging
committee"
This is not from the Burlington Free
Press report of the "snap" caucus at
Essex that was sprung by the McCul-
Tough men and lost to Proctor, only to
be followed by wild cry of fraud
But those lines were taken from The
Burlington Free Press report of the eau
Gus at Montpelier when the Mccullough
ticket was swatted in the first round.
The circumstances appear to duplicate
those at Essex, only the delegation was
not lost to the same man. Why not
cry fraud" st Adams Messenger.

The Morrisville Messenger asks
why Was not the cry of fraud raised at
Montpelier when 90 more votes were
east than names checked ON voting list,
enough to have totally changed the re-
suit? 1t further saws Iii there was
fraud at Essex when only IL more
votes were found than names checked

For governor the HERALD believes
that Fletcher ID. Proctor is more tavora-
bly, considered and is tirmer III the con-
fidence of the rank and file of the re-
publican party in Vermont than any
other man mentioned in connection
with this office. Our people have be-
come assured of his irreproachable char
acter, his ability and general fitness for
the office. The HERALD next urges re-
publicans to abstain from the heated,
angry discussions of men, the abuse and
villifcation now being INDUCED in, and
discuss measures not men, leaving 1t to
the wisdom of the convention to select
the best standard bearers. We do not
like to see the truest and foremost lead
ers of our party denounced in our own
household.
Essex County herald. [volume] (Guildhall, Vt.) 1873-1964, 1902-05-30

Summed up the whole opposition to
Fletcher ID. Proctor seems to have come
from the fact that the call for him to
run for governor did not come from the
politicians. 1t really is too bad that the
people of Vermont cannot select their
own candidate for governor without con-
sulting the politicians. Barre Telegram.
