THE CAUCUS LAW.

As was expected, the Democrats in
the House vigorously opposed the
Slack caucus bill, and rallied to their
support quite squad of Republicans
who either considered any caucus legis-
lation unnecessary, OF who objected
to certain features of the proposed act
Tue feature that provoked most dis
cussion was the advance registration
provision, which requires that in
order to vote in a caucus the voter
must have signifed in writing his
membership in the party holding the
caucus when the listers made their
rounds the spring before. and there is
no way by which, having gone on
record as a member OF one party at
that time, the voter can be transferred
SO as to take part in the caucus OF
another party that same year.
To some it appeared as though this
regulation was an infringement Of a
freeman's right to preserve bis politi-
cal opinions to himself, and IS going
isr toward defeating the very object OF
the Australian system. /. e. the
secrecy Of the ballot. To others il
seemed unwise and unfair to carroll
the voters so long in advance OF cleo
ton time, when neither candidates
nor platforms had been agreed upon.
and when men might be in a state Of
doubt a. to their political intentions.
Bur these objections. well founded
in part. gave way before the urgent
Necessity Of some system that would
ia fact preserve the caucus in its DUR
ity. Tbere was general agreement 10
the proposition that those and those
only who intend 10 support the n5mi-
nces OF the caucus or convention in
which they take part should be per-
mited to take part therein. This set
tied, the next question was rs TO the
best means 10 insure that result. II

GOVERNOR VS.. LEGISLATURE.

The relations existing Of late be-
tween Vermonts chief executive and
the two law-making houses are un-
fortunately not Unprecedented. or even
novel. Perhaps the situation is a little
more tense than usual this year. and
the assembly as a whole seems more
united in claiming authority-even to
the point of taking awav the govern
or's powers. 1t really does seem
strange that in little state like Yer
mont, whose population and wealth
are smaller than those OF any one of
ten cities in the United States. the
wheels Of government should not run
more smoothly. The occasion for
internal friction is slight. The sub
jects over which a governor and legis-
lature may lock horns are so few that
the only conclusion to be drawn from
the frequent clashes is that both par
ties, set up by a little brief authority
and enwrapped in a temporary garb
of dignity, are altogether too ready 10

WAS dppditul lhab thStN
some stage preceding voting.a division
OF the voters according to their party
preferences. To leave this until the
final hours OF the canvass was 70
give opportunity Tor about all the
abuses that the law was designed 70
remedy. II men were not called upon
TO classify themselves until they
entered the caucus itself, they could,
! if so inclined, vote with either or any
party that for the moment promised to
please them most. regardless Of their
real political standing.
Such a method would be worthless
in curing most OF the evils suffered.
Democrats could still vote in Republic
can caucuses, and vice versa. When,
then. should the enrolment be made +?
Maniiestly. as late as might be without
inviting the danger just described, and
early enough to have it well completed
in season for the preparation OF the
checklists to be used at the early sum
mer caucuses. This fixed the date
nearly.
Then as to the means of making the
enrolment, it was apparent that far
better results could be secured by hay-
ing the voters seen, interviewed and
recorded by some competent official
than through careless party commit
tee-men, or by depending on the ac-
ton of the voters themselves, who, in
many cases, would not attend TO it at
all. And inasmuch as the listers see,
or are supposed to see, every voter in
their town at about the time when il
seemed proper that the enrolment
should be made, what better plan than
to have them attend 10 that duty, in
addition 10 their others, 1t that time?
The machinery of this caucus law is
really very simple. After the enroll
ment as described, the blanks with
each voters political preference there
on are turned over by the listers to
the town clerk, who, in advance OF the
caucus period, makes up a checklist
from these returns, placing each voter
in his appropriate party. The board
of civil authority meets to make any
and in case of question the
voters own certificate made 10 the
listers is taken as conclusive evidence.
The calling of caucuses-except the
provision that those of the same party
must be held at the same time in all
the towns-and the management of
hem are lett to the ordinary party Off
GERS, save that the legally prepared
checklist must be used in voting when
i've per cent Of the voters so petition.
Penalties are fixed for vote-buying at
,aucuses, as well as for voting in eau
uses other than that Of the party in
which the voter is enrolled.
Doubtless experience will suggest
in this caucus law, but
Is a basis on which to work we con-
iider il well adapted to the present
needs OF a state like Vermont.
