If the republicans of Orleans county
|repudiate the platform of the state
convention in what do they differ
from the Clement republicans of the
state? If the action of the state
convention was taken to blind the
masses of the republican voters of
the state 1t should be known at once.
The voters are abundantly able to

The republicans of Orleans county
have been called boilers because they
refused to indorse the high license
local option plank in the state plat
form. If refusing to indorse meas
ure which they believe would be very
Injurious to the state is sufficient for
stamping them as boilers the repub-
licans of this county will have no OBJ
jections to being thus designated.

between employers and employees.
Other issues brought forward in the
platform were as follows:
"We invite the candid consideration
of the voters of Vermont to certain
conditions that are known to exist in
the state, the remedy for which lies
in their own hands.
Nominees for the important Office
of governor, are named years in ad-
vance of nominating convention by
the republican leaders. But even
then large sums of money must be
furnished by the designated candidate
or by his friends before ne can reason
ably expect the actual nomination.
In the preliminary canvass for gov
ernor of Vermont before the republi-
can convention in the year 1902, the
methods that prevail in New York
and Philadelphia were followed by
some of the candidates and money
was lavlshly and unfairly spent to
produce such nomination. We de-
nounce these corrupt, degrading
methods, and ask, for the good name
and fame of the state, that the auth
ors and beneficiaries of these methods
may be punished at the ballot-box in
September.
"We believe the best way to secure
temperance is by education and ex-
ample and not by any law that under
takes to regulate appetite or to pro-
hibit the sale of intoxicating liquor.
We firmly adhere to the principles of
the democratic party that the sale of
liquor should be legalized and regula-
ted by the enactment of license local
option law.
1--WE denounce the extravaganza of
the republican party by which state
expenses have, within a short period,
more than doubled.
"We are opposed to the reckless
work and extravaganza of the cattle
commissioners.
1--WE are opposed to the unjust and
unfair method of taxing railroad prop
erty.
I'VE favor the passage of a law Civ
ing to women the right to vote on all
questions pertaining to taxing prop
erty of which such women are the
owners.
"The antiquated and English rotten
borough provision of the Vermont
state constitution by which the town
of Glastonbury with only 48 inhabi-
tants has one representative in the
house, while the city of Burlington
with a population of 1850 has only
the same number, ought to be
changed and representation made
equal.
"We pledge ourselves to support
the statute which will require all cor
porations doing business in this state
to pay all their employees weekly; to
support statute by which the wages
of laborers not exceeding $35 shall be
exempt from trustee process; and to
support another statute providing
penalty for a violation of the law
making ten hours days labor.
The platform was accepted and the
convention then proceeded to the
nomination of officers. After spirit
ed contest the following ticket was
nominated: For governor, Felix w.
McGettrick of st. Adams; for lieu.
tenant-governor, Elisha May of st.
Johnsbury; for secretary of state, J.
M. Burke, Middlebury; for treasurer,
j. M. Pollard of Windsor; for auditor,
j. E. Barnes of Rockingham. Con-
gressmen were nominated as follows:

DR.. Frost is a man who has played a
conspicuous part as pastor and Bible
teacher for thirty years. His early pas
torates were in New England, where he
was much esteemed as young man. At a

of the important University Place church,
Chicago. And in the day of the old uni
versity his eloquence attracted a large
hearing both of students and general pub
lie. For several years he has been pastor
of the Orchard Avenue Baptist church of
Los Angeles. And everywhere on the
coast he has been heard with delight.
DR.. Frost Is some six feet six inches tall

with his bulk.

SALAzAR IS PROMPTED
The Panama Governor Shown That
He Is Not Next" to Our
Obligations.

Washington, Sept. 26.--In regard to the
protest against the landing of American
marines on the isthmus made to Com
mandery Mclean Of the Cincinnati by
Governor Salazar Of Panama, on the
ground that the Colombian government
has ample force to protect the lives and
property of foreigners, it is pointed out
here that the governors argument takes
in only one-half Of the main treaty obll-
cations with regard to the isthmus, as
sumed in the convention Of New Gra-
NADIA, signed in 1916 by the United States
and Colombia. The dominant factor
which Influenced the landing of the" ma
rines was the 'obligati tion which the United
States took upon itself by the treaty OF
1886 in these words:s yrrC
The United States guarantees positively and
effcaciously to New Granada, by the present
stipulation, the perfect neutrality of the before
mentioned 1sthmus, with the view that the free
transit from to the other sea may not be
interrupted or embarrassed in any future time
while this treaty exists. ,.-.,- xs~.
Furthermore in respect to the COVER
noriss: reported declaration that he con
sidered the landing of the&U nited States
naval forces an attempt to- assume the
sovereignty Of Colombia, attention is di-
rected to this declaration in the same
paragraph Of the treaty: ~! 49, s.
The United States also guarantees the rights
of sovereignty and property which New Granada
has and possesses over the said territory. r

IS IT AFTER SHAW?
A Report That Wall Street Is
Anxious to Get the, Secre-
tary's Scalp. a.
The Iowa Man Not Ready to Do the
Bidding Of the Street in
Money Matters.

Building, Washington.
Washington, Sept 26.-The rumor that
there are differences between the presi-
to the immediate resignation Of the Sec
retary received such wide circulation that
Secretary Shaw at 1 O'Clock yesterday
found it necessary to make formal
denial. He authorized the statement that
he and the president are in entire accord
and that he has no thought Of resigning.
The best information obtainable here Is
that Wall street Is responsible for the
circulation Of the rumor that the secre-
tary was to be forced out by the presi-
dent
New York has 1T that the president
came here from Indianapolis instead OF
going to Oyster Bay, because he and his
secretary of the treasury had disagreed.
1t was averred that there the two were
lat loggerheads over the Wall street stu
alton and over the political situation in
Iowa. :
It is automatically stated here that Wall
street has gone after" the secretary 1t
has been asking him to do certain things
to relieve the monetary stringency and he
has not seen fit to do them. Secretary
Shaw has maintained right along that the
country at large was not greatly concerned
about the situation in Wall street. His
position is that the street is occupying a
bed Of it's own making and ought not to
be calling on the government to help it
out.
If reports are true Wall street has been
appealing to the president to stir up the
secretary of the treasury and it Is not i'm
probable that the situation has had some
thing to do with the president coming to
Washington at this time. In his informal
statement to-day preceding a formal
statement, the secretary Of the treasury
declared that he and the president were
in entire accord both as to the situation
! in Wall street and in Iowa.

Special to The Journal. M t :
i Tacoma, Wash. Sept. ,26.-Rod A. Rob
ertson, who is visiting the Puget sound
country in the interest of Scotch investors,
maintains that the wofld is not round but
that it is a circular plane. He is on his
way from Glasgow to Tasmania. OF his
theory Of the shape Of the earth he says:
college professors and scientists have
been duping the people long enough. Every
law of nature leads US to doubt the much
canyassed globe theory which has OBJ
tanned credence for many years past They
have forced down our throats the old
globe theory that the earth is round,
when as a matter of fact it is a circular
plane. The center is the north. Merid-
ians of longitude are the radii from this
center to the circumference, which Is the
southern boundary. This boundary is de-
scribed by navigators as the great ice
barrier wall o flee round and round
beyond that outer darkness.
"The compass and magnetism are stand

SO that It cannot be moved. Parallels Of
latitude are the circles round the central
north. Looking to the north, to the right

navigation is done by plane triangulation
which can only apply to a level surface.
Sailing due east or west describes circle.
The sun, moon and stars are lights to the
earth, and given for days and years and
