Just What Was Expected.

The expected has happened, or
will happen July 16, as at that
time P. w. Clement will accept
the nomination of the "Ver-
mont Local Option League as
an independent candidate for
Governor. This is the result of
a conference held at Rutland last
week. Beaten in the Republican
convention, after having partici-
pated in it and after securing a
high license plank, Mr.. Clement
and his followers-not all of them
by any means-ignore the wish OF
the majority and instigate a
bolt. Mr.. Clement will head the
ticket. 1t is said that F. W. Agan
of Ludlow is to be given second
place and c. H. Thompson of
Brattleboro, who received thirty
five votes in the Republican con-
vention, is to be placed on the
ticket for Auditor. State Treas
urer Bacon and nominee Fleet
wood for Secretary of State will
be the only ones on the regular
ticket that will be given a place
on Clements ticket. There is a
report that a Democrat or two
will be placed on the ticket-but
the knowing ones say it will be
as above.
We do not believe that grand
old party" of the State of YER
mont will be hoodooed by this
movement or in any great degree
moved from it's old-time moor
ings. Republicanism in Vermont
is founded upon rock bottom and
is rock-ribbed and nowhere in all
the United States are those who
follow it's principles more loyal
to the party it represents than
here. The regular ticket, headed
by that grand and intelligent
man, General Mccullough, will
be elected in spite of any move
ment that Mr.. Clement may
make.

Clement Will Bolt.

The Clement leaders, to the
number of forty-fve, from vari-
GUS parts of the state, met in
Rutland on Thursday afternoon
for a conference on the question
OF putting state ticket in the
field. Reports were made and
letters read bearing on the Stu
alton throughout the state, with
result that a unanimous agree
ment was reached and a reso-
luton adopted to hold mass
convention at Burlington on
Wednesday, July 16. Delegates
were further requested to be
present, so far as possible, on the
10th for the conference. In the
informal talk and speeches made,
the opinion was expressed that
the license referendum plank in
jected into the state platform
amounted to nothing. The claim
was made that the other Repub-
leans were not sincere and would
either not put a local option bill
through or moreprobably would
put through oneso Objectionable
that the people would not think
of supporting it. To prove this
opinion the prohibition legisla-
tors being elected to draft the bill
were referred to. Petitions fav-
oring a local option state ticket
were presented.
Mr.. Clement was called in and
in the course of the discussion he
said he doubted the sincerity ofhis
opponents. He didn't know
whether ornotit was best to run
independent. He left that for
the people to say. If the local
optionists wanted him to stand
for an independent candidate and
so decided, he would follow out
their wishes. 1t was suggested
that he might be beaten and po-
litically ruined. Don't mind
me" was the reply. It'won't
hurt me. No man was ever hurt
by doing what he thought was
right" Again he said: We can
win if we want to giveit the time
and effort. The question is, Is it
best for the cause and whether or
not we want to take hold of it. "
After Clement withdrew by
unanimous vote a committee of
two was instructed to ask Mr..
Clement to run. The reply by
Mr.. Clement to the request of the
committee was in effect: 81 will
run for Governor Of Vermont if
nominated by the local option
convention to be held in Burling-
ton the 10th" The mass con-
vention to nominate Mr.. Clement
is to be held in the Howard
Opera House, Burlington, We'd
