GOVERNORSHIP TALK.

The freedom with which the newspap-
crs of Vermont are discussing the COVER
norship and the availability of the diff
fcrent men whose names are considered
in connection with the republican nominal
ton for that office is cncouraging for it
is certain, all things considered to re-
suit in the nomination of the best man
for the GEce
Discussion of the qualifications oe tho
different men mentioned serves to dis
close that one man is strong where an
other man is weak and vice versa. and
at the same time to emphasize the differ
ent issues which most appeal to the peo-
pie. In this way the platform to be
adopted at the State convention will grad
ually he evolved, and instead of being
merely n finished literary product it will
stand for the demands OF the ajority OF
the people as threshed out in public dis
cussion, through tho press and in party
meetings.
This being presidential year, there is a
growing recognition of the dosirabilty Of
nominating candidate for the governor
ship who will at least make as efficient an
executive as any other man who can be
nominated and who at the same time will
be able to command the support of differ
ent factions and thus ensure large vote
in September.
1t will very readily be recognized that
this IS difficult test and it follows as a
matter of course that there are very few
men on the east side, or in the whole
State for that matter who can ill the biz

take it's natural course, and it is not i'm.
probable that by the time the convention
meets the goyornorship agitation will prac-
tically have provided its own solution

WHAT OUR NElGHBORS SAY
The Question of Good Roads and How
to Secure Them for Vermont.
(From the Newport EXpress)

Our article upon good roads last week
brings up another line of thought upon
the same subject that is worthy of con-
sideration. il is the fact that bill is
pending in Congress calling Tor appro-
priation of millions OF dollars for the
building OF permanent highways 1t pro-
vdcs that no State shall receive less than
$3.50, 600 OF this appropriation, but the state
must appropriate an equal amount. At
first thought this looks like reasonable
bill, SO reasonable in fact that 1t has
been endorsed by some OF the State pa
pers. 1t provides money Tor the oulld-
ing up Of our highways and bridges 10
the standard we would desire, and money
is what we have been asking for Tor TINS
purpose. But there is another side to
this subject, Il vital side, ana IL Is OF TINS
side we desire to speak.
1T must be remembered that the south
Is heartily in favor of this olll. Why
Because, generally speaking, the south
is without roads and bridges Near the
cities and large towns many new bridges
have been built during the past few years
but the majority of river CROSSINGS are
crumbling wooden affairs. or as We have
noticed in our travels through all parts
of the South simply fords. Now. when
we speak of ford do not understand
that it is always across II brook or snail
low river, Many Of these lords are from
la quarter to n mile IN Wluth' ana WINE
in Il dry season or in ordinary times the
water Is shallow, ana as is frequently
the case, with no water at all, in the
rainy season, or in the case of storms,
they become massive rivers and are I'M
passible for days at time These places
must be bridged Other places now cross
cd by ferres-and we bring one 10 nina
at Fort Myers, Fla, requiring bridge
ntarly two miles long and the building
of which has been agitated for some
tme-must be bridged in ike manner.
1t is characteristics of the South and
| West that the rivers as Whoie arc
extremely long. These bridges throughout
the South are wanted by the hundreds,
| Then as To the roads. Those who have
been throughout the South In the rainy
season know what the highways are
like, 1t takes more to keep them UP than
Vermont roads on account OF 'he u"ahty
of the mud. With us, roads are pad III

REvULSION or LICENSE SENTIMENT

The intense interest which existed
throughout the State with reference to
the outcome of the license struggle in
different cities was indicated by the fact
that first calls for information as to re-
turns almost invariably related to the
Eyes" and no" vote, rather than to
the outcome of the municipal elections.
1t had beer generally understood that
there was a marked revulsion of feeling
in Rutland on the license question. but
comparatively few people were prepared
for the reversal of last years verdict on
the saloon in what had long been regard
ed as the hotbed of license Not only
was Rutland carried against the saloon,
but the wave of temperance sentiment
also embraced West Rutland, and other
communities in Rutland county.
Returns from towns in every county
IN Vermont, which will be found tabulated
in another column, show conclusively
that the saloon has not been found CON
ducive to general business, as was claim
ed by its advocates. although the in
stitution is still on its good behavior so
far as Vermont is concerned.
The revulsion of sentiment on the sa-
loon question in Burlington was not suf-
tcient to swing the city into the no
column this year, but the drop from 1,76l
to S45 majority for license in this city
was pronounced, being a gain of 9l5 as
compared with the result last year and
by another year public sentiment may ho
ready to abolish the saloon even in Bur
lington. In the meantime it is significant
that some of the liquor dealers here are
looking about for a soft place on which
to fall.

"OLD HOME WEEK.

Writes Concerning the OriEinatiOn
Of the Term.
To the Editor OF the Free Press

To the Editor OF the Free Press:
The enclosed squb, which has been
going the rounds of the Vermont papers,
ana think WAS first published in your
paper, leads me to suggest that have
mover claimed that | originated the idea
of reunion. There have probably been
reunions of towns and people as far
back AS the time OF Noah. but what |
do claim is that originated the express
sion, "Old Home Week." and that the
originality Of the idea consists i'm the
name and in the fact of its being an AN
nual occurrence at a stated period fixed
by law
Wilmington, lii,e many other towns has
had reunions. but ] think YOU will search
in vain for expression "Old Home Week
in connection with any kind of a Cclrhra
ton previous to the old Home Week
celebration which | started in New Hamp-
shire.
| do not make this statement with
the idea of taking To myself any undue
credit, but simply for the purpose OF
meeting such claims as are made 10y
the town of Wilmington. Similar claims
have been made by other towns, which
have had in years gone 10y such reunions
