Platform, Not Candidates.

Let us hear more talk about the next
Republican state platform and less about
possible candidates If the party expects
To hold itself together for the control of
the state government and to enlist the
rising generation in it's support. it must
declare itself on the questions of improve
ncut in civil government that the people
are talking about, and must declare for
the popular side of them, too. What the
great mass of the people are interested
ion is the laws, not the candidates. They
are looking for the party that promises
to do the most to model Vermont statutes
and governmental institutions In sympathy
with the liberal and progressive spirit OF
the times; for the party that can give
them the most substantial benefits in the
way of modern taX-law and other things
that come straight home to any mans
doorstep. The party with such a platform
need have no fear about it's candidates
The party without such a platform will
have no need of any candidates at all

Senator Proctor is Right.
Huntington Free Press.l

Senator Proctor is quoted by the New
York Tribune as saying there is no doubt
in his mind as to who will be the Re-
publican standard bearer in 1904. He ex-
presses the opinion that President Roose-
Welt has given the country a careful. able
and even brilliant administration, and the
Republican party will nominate and elect
him for -four years more. He does not
think the name of any other man will be
mentioned in the national convention and
he pays this tribute to Mr.. Roosevelt:
when ii comes to the election. Mr.
Roosevelt will lead his party to a signal
victory. He is nearer to the great heart
of the people than any candidate that can
be selected by either party Some few
malcontents in the Republican ranks may
hold back, but for every Republican vote
that we lose we will gain ten Democrats.
President Roosevelt's fearless honesty APP
peals to the people of the United States
with irresistible force His nomination
and election are a foregone conclusion"
