own parties and thus carry their own
ends in spite of the opposition of a MAJOR
ity of their own party.
The absence of a caucus law also en-
ablcs members of one party to pack the
caucuses of n rival party, and thus force
the latter to support men at the polls
Objectionable to a majority of that party.
Following the city election in Burling-
ton a citizen frankly informed a neigh
Dor that he had been concerned In a
movement to take part in contest over
nominations in one of the opposite party 8
cnucuses because they believed they could
defeat at the polls the man they sup
ported in the other party's caucus
No argument ought to be necessary to
show the possibilities to which political
trickery of this sort can be carried, as
regards both men and measures.
Judging from the comment In various
newspapers throughout Vermont, there
will not only he a caucus plank in the
Vermont republican platform, but there
will also be introduced in good season
in the Legislature next fall a well con-
sidered caucus measure.

LAW ON THE GOvERNORSHIP.

1t really seems too bad to send SO many
back to the stable" as the jockeys
would say, but according to an act passed
by the last Legislature. most Of those
who have been more or less considered
as gubernatorial possibilities are rendered
ineligible to the executive chair. Indeed
there might he some question under this
law whether Governor Mccullough him
s"lf is entitled to act as orr executive,
The third section Of Act No. 1t3 speaks
of tho governor who shall hc a reputable
practicing physician of this state" and
inasmuch as this is an act for the
preservation % the public health, provid-
ing for the appointment of mcmbcrs of
tho state beard Of health" the act was
presumably formulated hy or under tho
direction Of some practicing physician.
1t is easy to understand how n ply
stefan might smugglo into an act of this
character a provision that would mako
it necessary to select a member of t.
medical profession for governor OF Yer
mont and the state has boosted and
will continue to boast of physicians who
would make crcditahlc executives.
If the question were to be carried to the
supreme court of Vermont. however, that
judicial tribunal would unquestonably
declare this limitation as TO the COVER
norship to be unconstitutional on the
ground that it is class legislation.
Speaking seriously, simply "A comma
seems TO have stood at one time between
the governor and this reputable prac-
tcng physician" hut whether there is
anything more than mere comma"
standing between different mon and the
govcrnorship remains to be demonstrated.

FOR DISTRICT DELEGATE.

The Hon. Homan W. Allen, whose name
has been mentioned by many of his friends
in connection with the position of district
delegate to the republican national con-
vention, is one of Burington's foremost
merchants, and it will oe generally recog-
nized that he would crcditably represent
the first congressional district in the ma
tional council of the party He has al
ways been sterling republican,; he has
had considerable experience in public
affairs, and he is public spirited citizen.
In 1896 Colonel Allen was elected to the
State senate, and his ability and influence
were given just recognition through his
appointment to the charmanshp of the
committee on corporations and to MEM
bershp on the committees on banks
claims, military affairs, and game and
fisheries. Colonel Allen is a veteran of
the war for the preservation of the Union,
having served with the 18th Vermont in
the campaign of the Army of the Potomac
in 1862 and 1863.
The dry goods firm with which Colonel
Allen has been connected in various capa-
cities since 1864 and Of which he has been
the head since 1890. has won an cnViable
reputation in the mercantile world. His
election as district delegate would give
recognition to a first class business man,
a stalwart and consistent republican and
a good citizen.

city to arouse Chicago to the true sense
OF the situation into which IL had allowed
itself to drift. The boy bandits showed
that Chicago was still wild West sort
of community. so far as could be judged
from the holiness of its criminal classes
Tho people of Chicago became aroused
to the necessity Of adopting stern meas
ures to repress crime; and as result
of that awakening Of the necessity OF
justice Van Dine, Marx and Neidermeier
have been sentenced to suffer the death
penalty
These young rufflans had been subjected
to the reformatory influences Of the peni-
Tertiary for lesser crimes: but association
with other criminals or other debasing in
fiuences served to simply prepare them for
more desperate crimes.
The people of every community can
profit by the experiences of Springfield
and Chicago. If the laws for protection
Of life and property are not enforced by
the authorities, II is only question OF
time when the people will take the law
into their own hands: and terrible will
be the awakening Of justice.
Vermont has sadly temporized with JUS
tice in the recent past May We be spared
| awakenngs to justice like those that
have come to Springfield and Chicago.

tense of building in every town a section
OF permanent road has been made. 1t is
probable that in many, II not most, of tho
rural towns IL would take very close in
spection to find those sections called per-
fnanent roads, as distinguishable from the
common highway and they are generally
in poor condition"
and expend this money ana by the use Of
road building machinery (Which it woull
be impossible for small towns to obtain

tel, from common roads.
FIRST let us do what we can to obtain
FEDERAL aid, and second let us spend our
state money In a business like way so
the results of it may be seen in after
years.
The discussion Of the practical side of
this question is wise, and 1t Is one of
the encouraging signs Of the day in YER
mont that some Of the engineers In diff
ferent parts of the State ara agitatng
the question of a reform in the manner
Of spending the proceeds OF the State
highway tax.
n project is under way for convcn-
ton In the interest of good roads to be
held in Burlington on the evening of April
%. This will be the night between the
State and the district republican conven-
tons to elect delegates to the republican
national convention. and while politics
will be an absorbing topic, 1t is believed
a large attendance OF those interested in
good roads for Vermont can be secured
al that time.

THE BEEF TRUST.
\ Western Nirw of the High Price OF
beef in the Proposed Investigations.
(From the Chicago Tribune)

Stock ras"rs say that they get too little
for cattle. I'ousckeepers say they have
to pay too much for steaks and roasts
The ranchmen say the packers are rob.
bing them by combining to keep down
the price of cattle on the hoof. The con
sumers say they are being plundered
hut they are inclined to believe the re-
tail butchers have a hand with the pack
ers. AS for the butchers and packers
they lift their hands to heaven and swear
they are innocent. So do all who are
accused of combining to fleece the pub
lie.
Ii is a fact that the price of dressed beef
is about what it was three years ago,
while cattle are much cheaper. The cost
of handling becves IN packing houses has
not increased The packers find good
market at home and abroad for their
products. Why should the price oi
dressed beef be kept ny unless il be To
enable the packers to make 81 moro ON
every hundred pounds of meat than they
did in 1901? Probably strict justice woul
divide that dollar between the stock
raiser and the consumer. but how are
the packers to be compelled to do that
sum in division?
Representative Martin of South Da
kots. who has many cattle-raising con-
stituents, has asked the House to direc
secretary tOrtelNOU to Investigate tn.
beef question and il is likely to do so
Ey all means, let us have in investigd-
tion. In most cases the searching in
quirics OF departments. commits sions Oi
committees add TO the mass of printed
matter issued by the government and dc
nothing more The proposed investiga-
tion of the beef question, If ordered. ma y
have no other outcome Nevertheless
let tho department of commerce and labor
take UP the question and send out its

ONE SOURCE or POOR GOVERNMENT

a number of our Vermont contempo-
raries are INDUCING in comments not UNI
like that following this timely and per-
tinent question by the esteemed Lyndon
Vile journal.
"What has become Of tho agitation for
a caucus law? Here is as good a chance
for some real constructive legislation as
the next legislature viii have thrown up
at it"
If We remember correctly the demand
for a caucus law, which had been en-
pha sized previous to 1907 was seized by
certain band of men and horadcd
throughout the state two years ago. as
if it were something that had suddenly
sprung up in a night. Not few men who
INDUCED in the cry for caucus
reform were sent to the Lcgsla-
ture in 1902, ana "a cnucux meas
ure was submitted. II vas not exact
lY what would have suited many people
in favor of caucs reform, but as haI
been said OF the locll option law, while
not perfect it was a beginning.
As too often happens many Of the men
who had used tho caucus Slogan for cam
paipn purposes, found varous cGcusos
either for recording their votes against "a
caucus bill or for rofraiuing from voting
altogether They showed that their only
care for caucus reform was to use it for
riding purposes
who "oro those men ana to what polit-
ical organizations did they belong?
To answer that question might take ue
into the realm of partisan discussion. II
Is sufficient to say in this connection that
the names of those who voted on this bill
in 1902 are fully recorded, and whenever
an attempt is made to hold any particular
party responsible for the death of tho
measure, it will be n very simple matter
TO place such responsibility whore il
really belongs, both individually and
politically
What we desire in this connection is &c
emphasize the still growing need of q
caucus measure in Vermont. We have
hitherto shown how it is possible FOR
politicians 10 pack the caucuseS of theiI

WILL VERMONT TEMPORIZE TOO
FART

There is every Indication that a pro-
nounced movement in favor of the more
rigid enforcement of the laws against
crime will result from the recent lynch
ing horror in Springfield. ohio. and the
exploits of the boy bandits in Chicago.
The fair fame ot Springfield having re-
ceivcd a blot that can never he wiped out,
people in that community are seeking to
uncover I'll" conditions which made the
recent lynching horror possible. The dis
covcrv is made that there have been 40
lcss than TIVE We cases of murder in that
community during the past two wears,
and il is held that practically all Of the
men guilty Of these crimes should have
been convicted Of murder in the first de-
gree
As matter Of fact, however. only two
men were sentenced to life imprisonment
and not ono was cloctroouted. This sit
uation of affairs can not be attributed to
the existence Of too severe n penalty, for
in one case a man who killed another in
cold blood was sentenced to tho work
house for comparatively short period,
showing that it was possible to convict a
man without necessarily iuhicting capital
punishment. or even life Imprisonment,
While tho race problem entering into
the Springfield situation presents serious
phases. as indicating a spread Of hatred
of the Colorcd people outside of the
Southern states, all considerations of that
sort are completely overshadowcd by the
ominous character of the spirit of extreme
lawlossnosS manifested after the lynching
Of the murderer i'm this instance
The charge is made that the people hold
the failure of the courts TO ensure the
administering of Justice responsible for
the uprising, making it possible for the
| criminal element temporarily to rule the
city. I!o this as it may, tho fcc,irA Of
the people that the murderer would not
b. punished unquostionably played a
| prominent part in leading the mob to
take the imposing Of the death penalty
into their own hands
The lesson of the lynchinE horror ana
its attendant results has oNid' ntly taught
the city Of Springfield lasting lesson,
| and the chances are that for a time at
| least strenuous efforts will he made to
| secure the punishment of crime
| The sentencing of the Chicago bandits
also indicates that the people OF the
| Prairie City have become aroused to the
necessity Of lessening crime in their com
munity, Chicago has been notorious for
u number of years on account of the
| o. la,
on the streets; places of business were
| raided, and even as public places as the
street cars were rendered unsafe by rob
| bers; while murders were committed with
| disturbing frequency
1t apparently required some bold and
startling series of crimes that would
rivet the attention OF the world on the
