FUS|ON|sTS HOPE
FOR VICTORY IN
VERMONT TODAY

Montpelier. VT. Sept 4.-National is
sues do not figure 10 any extent I'm the
biennial state election which is being held
In Vermont today. as the contest for gov
ernor is not a straight one between the
Republican and Democratic parties.
In the two congressional districts there
has been little interest as far the return
of Representative David j. Foster OF Bur
lington from the first. and Kittredge
Haskins Of Brattleboro from the second
district has been generally conceded by
the usual Republican pluralities.
The chief point Of interest I'm the state
election Is the size OF the Republican vote
which Percival w Clement OF Rutland
Fusion candidate for governor will be
able To draw from the Republican ranks
The Democrats have no regular party
man I'm the field. They endorsed the can
didacy Of Mr. Clement, the nominee Of the
so-called Independent party. Four years
ago. Mr.. Clements followers I'm the Re
publican state convention bolted the par
~ when Gen. John @. Mccullough was
nominated for governor. Since that
time Mr.. Clement has not been identified
with the Republican organization.
The supporters of Fletcher u. Proctor.
the Republican candidate for governor,
claim that the Republican plurality will
be about 1900 or a thousand above the
average by reason OF the widespread in
terest among the voters.
The fuslonists say they expect that
Clement will be successful by 5000 plural
ity. The fusionists claim to be receiving
strong support in the cities and large
towns Of Washington, Bennington and
Rutland counties. The contest is very
keen in Rutland county the home of both
Proctor and Clement.
The state campaign has been conducted
almost entirely on state issues. Clement
I'm all his addresses has charged that the
state government has been too expensive.
The Republicans claim that there il no
question about the success Of the entire
state ticket. The fusionists. while claim
ing the election of Clement do not make
any estimate as 10 the vote of the other
candidates on the ticket some of whom
are Democrats and other Independents
will receive.
PRIMARY ELECTION IN WISCONSIN,
Milwaukee Sept 4.-Primary elections
are being held throughout Wisconsin to-
day for the first time since the law was
enacted. The voters will nominate can
didates for four state tickets-Republican
Democratic. Prohibition and Social Demo-
cratic-and will select candidates for con-
gress. the state legislature and county

The chief interest centres in the contest
for the heads of the Republican and
Democratic state tickets, Gov. James O.
Davidson and Irving L. Lenroot are the
chief contenders for the nomination for
governor on the Republican ticket. while
Senator Ernest Merton and John A. Ayl-
