The Mortified News gives an inside
view on Percival W. Clements attitude
toward the gubernatorial campaign OF
next year, on the authority of Charles
A. Smith OF Montpelier, one of Mr.. Glenn
ent's ablest lieutenants OF last year. 1t
is to the effect that Mr. Clement is not
anxious to be candidate, but that he
will not desert the kid as he calls the
high license law, and If the campaign is
waged on the lines of license and pro-
hlbition he will be prepared to enter the
lists. If this is correct view Mr.. Glenn
tnt will not run next year, for the very
good reason that the great mass of the
voters are willing to give the present law
a trial long enough to ascertain it's
merits and dement's with more exactness
than can be determined at the present
