The other Randolph candidate fol
the senatorship is Luther b. Johnson
publisher OF this paper. Mr.. johnson
is of the younger generation. Fol
the past five successive sessions he
has served as one of the official re-
porters OF the House. Two years ago
Randolph Republicans, at their caucus
instructed their county delegation foT
him. but he had made no canvass tor
the nomination, it was not understood
that he was to be a candidate, and
at convention time he decided not to
have bis name presented.
The contest between Messrs. Morse
and Johnson will naturally eliminate
in the caucus OF Randolph. 1t is, We
are happy 20 say, being carried on in
the friendly, good.natured way that
eharaeterizes the personal relations OF
the principals. and whatever Randolph
decides will be accepted as final by
both OF them.
There will probably be no oppose
ton to the h. mi a ion OF March NJ
Wilson OF Randolph as states attorney
and William IL. sprague OF Chelsea
formerly OF Brookield) as sheriff.
Both are serving their first terms, and
it is the custom OF the county 10 re-
elect these officers. il found worthy.
Judge VIM. Paul will retire, but
his successor on the county bench has
not yet been suggested, that we are
aware OF. Judge Cyrus u Lathrop Of
Williamstown will doubtless preserve
the custom Of reelection.
No suggestion OF a change in the
probate judgeship Of either district
has been made, and Judges Nichols
and Gleason viii be reelected, with
out much question.

One of the candidates for the Repub-
lican nomination for state treasurer
offers 10 "maintain an Office in Mont

policy Tor Vermont herself TO do this /?
Wouldn't it be wise for us to try TO get
our state govtr lment all under one
umbrella somewhere and at least have
as muth business concentration and
system as a scissors grinder
We have too long permitted the
functions OF the state government
to be employed as side-line by men
who must give most OF their time to
something else in order TO live. We
have too long accustomed ourselves 10
seeing state departments housed in
ont-of-way places that nobody that
wanted TO do business as business is
done to-day could get TO short OF two
days journey and to seeing this and
that state officer now and then take his
record book down from behind the
clock and make note in ii Just as the
clerk OF the rural school district may
do once year when he hires teacher.
The fault Is not with the men bat
with the public policy that established
the practice for them in some in
stances or compelled them to resort
to it in others. OF course, our govern
ment ought to keep open houses at
Montpelier in all lis branches, the
year round. There should not be
two opinions about il. Ii we should
resolutely set about making business
out Of the government OF Vermont,
just as we DO about other affairs of
ours involving tar less capital and far
less valuable considerations to men

the returns our industry and attention
would make. Government is a BUSH
