Points for Mocullonnh-

General Mccullough is worthy the
nomination OF his party for these rea-
sons
i. He was a candidate in 1895 and
withdrew in the interest of party har-
mony at time when party harmony
was Of supreme Importance that is on
the eve Of a presidential campaign and
at the beginning Of war with Spain.
2. He commands universal respect
and friendship throughout the state
where he is widely known, as well as
in other states.
>. The only argument against him
is that he is not Vermonter, which is
not true.
4. lie represents the older republi-
cans of the state. The young men have
been recognized in the election of the
present governor.
>. He is a rich man, but Is making
no effort to secure the honor he desires
by dishOnOrable use of money.
o. His home is in Bennington
county, which can fairly claim politi-
cal recognition.
z. He is receiving stronger endorse
ment than any candidate now in the
field
:. lie Is a consistent temperance
man but can be trusted 10 lend his in
huence toward any temperance legis-
latlon that will meet with the approval
OF the voters or promise more efficient
promotion OF real temperance; he is
not rabid high license man nor a
rahid prohibitionist
>. He is a good speaker and viii
honorably and iittingly represent the
stale al home and abroad.
10. He has sound common and bus
mess sense.
IL. lie has done what he could for
the state Of Vermont.-rLudlow Tri-
bune.

DoDGlNG THE REAL ISSUE.

The leading objection of many
voters to Gen. Mccullough as a candi-
date for the governorship is that they
do not consider him a real Yermonter.
Recognizing the force and peril
nence of an objection of this kind,
Gen. McCullough's adherents have
sought to break it down by what can
not be characterized as anything short
of wilful misrepresentation. Instead
of meeting the objection on the
grounds that it actually rests, viz,
that Gen. Mccullough is a summer
resident, whose short and transitory
stays within the state have not given
him that knowledge of Vermont and
her people that a chief executive
shopld have. nor a title to the Office
that should take precedence over that
Of steady residence and long prelimi-
nary training instead of arguing
these points, the opposition has flown
over them entirely and raised hue
and-cry over the idea that only native
Nermonters should be governors
They assail this proposition with all

Theodore Roosevelt denied again
and again that he was a candidate for
the vice-presidential nomination before
the Philadelphia convention, stating
in the most urgent and unqualified way
that he must not be considered. But
in spite of all that he did become a
candidate, was triumphantly nominat-
ed and elected. Nobody thought the
less OF him because he bowed to the
popular mandate. Nobody accused
him Of breaking his word or using de-
ception. Yet because Fletcher ID.
Proctor has come into the governor
ship contest Unexpectedly, in compli-
ance with a strong demand, he is as
sailed and berated in the most unkind
way.

their heavy batteries, and when they
have planted their feet on it they
screech triumphantly.
But they have gained hollow vic
tory, for they haven't touched the
Proctor position at all. They have
merely wasted their efforts. Nobody
in Vermont asks or desires that our
governorships and other offices shall
be held by Vermont-born citizens only.
Such proposition is ridiculous, and
we doubt if it would find a single adj
vocate in Vermont. What is required
is that those who would be governors,
no matter where they were born, shall
at this time be actual, bona fide, no.
fooling residents and citizens of Yer
mont.
Is there anything marrow" or pro
scriptiven about that demand OF
course there isn't, and every McCul-
Tough man knows it, yet they 90 on
preaching against the anatiye" idea as
though it really existed. Column after
column has been devoted to its de-
with rarely a mention of
the true grounds Of opposition to Nc
Cullough. Perhaps it is hoped to
throw dust in the eyes Of the voters by
these tactics, and so blind them to the
real issue, but we do not believe it will
work.
Nobody objects to Mccullough be-
cause he wasn't born in Vermont, so,
men and brethren, why not give up
pretending that this is the case. and
levote your efforts to showing that
your man is now a real Vermonter, in
he full sense-if you can do it /?

The Humorous Side.

The st. Adams Messenger has fun
with the item that appeared in the
Springfield Republican as sent from
Brattleboro, relating 10 Gen. MeCul-
lough's frugal and democratic ways, as
evidenced by his eating his lunch from
a satchel aboard the train. The Mes
senger prints the following fictitious
clippings -
rSquashyille Gazoot.
Gen. John G.. Mccullough passed
through our village today, riding in a
common railway coach hitched to a
common locomotive on common
track. The general is a very human
being. He is a millionaire and has
plenty of money besides, but he car
ried frugal lunch in shoe box and
during the brief stop OF the train won
several votes from the ardent Yer
monters who gathered about the car
window by eating his homely meal in
their presence. A murmur Of admira-
ton ran through the crowd when il
was observed that the general eats by
opening a gap i'm his complexion and
stuiiing it tull of food. The generals
lunch consisted of angel cake and
tripe. He is now making a tour of
the state eating broken yictuals out Of
old paper bags from the rear platform
OF an Erie directors car with the idea
of demonstrating that he is a Yer
monter. The Gazoot Is requested TO
say that at the various stops made by
the train the general viii eat anything
that is brought to him just to show
that he is friendly TO the people of the
state. There is a rumor that the en-
vious Proctor crowd, chagfined at this
adroit move on the part Of McCul-
Tough, is rigging up special train
and will send out a goat to do the same
thing.

Champion is steadily eating his way

On the occasion Of his visit here he
