as an aristocrat and never felt that he
could be one Of them In Mr.. Proctors
whirlwind campaign he had the glad
hand" for everybody; wherever he went
he was renewing friendships and making
new acquaintance. The people were
attracted to him by his winsome per-
sonality and he was given an ovation in
every place he entered. He carried his
own town by vote of 454 to rs, which
shows conclusively that he is loved best
where he is best known.
So the campaign was a great personal
triumph for Fletcher D. Proctor and the
CALIFORNIAN heartily congratulates him
on his election. He was the target for
attack by press and speakers, yet he rose
above all the mean and false charges OF
the literary bureau and the fusion
speakers and his election is a vindication
of which he may we'll be proud. He is a
typical representative of the "new Yer
mont" and his administration will be
one of the most fruitful and brilliant in
the history of the state.

Who Is the Workingman?
EDITOR CALIFORNIAN:

EDITOR CALIFORNIAN:
In these days of caucuses and elections
attention is called to the condition of the
laboring man, and solicitude for his
welfare is frequently expressed by politi-
cal aspirants for office.
So earnest is this expression OF SYM
pathy that responsive audience is
almost made to feel that the only friend
laboring man has on earth, is the
Observation-Disclosures it may have no
clear understanding as to just what is
meant by "laboripg man"-uor in what
particular way he is to be benefited by
the election of any particular man to
office.
The Fourth Reader, which was at
one time a classic in our scaools-dehned
the laboring man as,
THE true aristocrat-
Who need not bow
His head to Lords nor doff to Kings his hat,
The man of toil-the mighty and the free
Whose hearts and hands subdue the earth,
And compass all the sea-"
If this is true it is difficult to enthrone
the politician, who, perhaps, never did
hard days work in his lite, as tie guardi-
an of the welfare OF the working people.
The meaning of the word working
man" is somewhat obscure. OF course
it means man who wo1 ks-but at what
kind of work and with hatimplements2
Is it the man with the hoe or the pen?
Is it the irresponsible worker, or the one
who bears the responsibility OF keeping
the wheels Of industry in motion? Is it
the man who abors on the farm, in the
shop, in the store, in the office, or occu-
pies the position of manager of a big
corporation?
They all work, and in the common
acceptaton of the term are laboring
men. What is the political definition OF
the term? In England man who
works is no gentleman. In America a
man who does not work is called "a
tramp" This is all very confusing.
Why should not sympathy and solici-
tude be expressed for the man who does
not work at all, or works as little as he
can? He is the kind of man who may
become an agitator, socialist, or anar-
chist; and if the politician will look alter
him the honest laboring man will take
care OF him. elf.
In this locality the best friends of the
laboring man have been the men who
worked with him, over him, in building
up a great industry, and aourishing
community, where all may live in peace
and happiness surrounded by influences
that make toll a pleasure, and the
opportunity to move on and upward in
the path of industry and righteous
living.

The election of Thomas c. Cheney as
representative from Morristown ought
to be follow wed by his election as speaker
of the House. Certainly no one is better
equipped for the place and it would be
fitting recognition of the practical
workings of civil service reform. AS
clerk of the House, for several terms he
has demonstrated his ability to master
the details of the legislative work, and
no representative will be more familiar
with the usage of the new rules of the
House as he was the chairman of the
committee that formulated them.

Percval w. Clement issued on Wednes
day the following open letter to his
supporters
ITO the Democratic and Independent
Parties:
You have made gallant fight for
better methods of state government, for
economy in state expenses, and for hon
est politics, and | wish to thank the
great army Of democrats and independ-
ent republicans who have made these
issues their own and have devoted time
and money for the purpose of bringing
them before the people.
And particularly wish to thank the
members of the state, county and town
committees and corps of gentlemen who
have been upon the platform for their
efforts in behalf of these reforms. We
have met defeat.
I'VE have only succeeded in cutting
down the usual republican majority
from 35, 900 to $4,000, but we have
made clean campaign and stand ready,
as did the license-local option party in
1902, to show in the minutest detail the
expense OF it. Under these conditions
defeat is not without honor"
See the Man. What is He Doing? He
is down on the Floor on his Hands and
Knees. Is the Man Praying? No, He is
Looking for Something. He is Hunt
ing for Some thing He has Lost. He is
Look ing under a Bureau for it. 1t is
the Clement Liter AIRY Bureau. He has
lost the Gov under it. The
Bureau is not to Blame. The Man is
Saying Things. Come Away, Howard.
1t is not Right that You should Hear the
Man Swear St. Adams Messenger.
Fusion was beaten at the polls yester-
day. While the ticket showed strength
in spots, the verdict was too general to
warrant any conclusion other than that
the voters OF the state are not ready to
break from the machine.
The odds from the start in anv indie
pendent or fusion movement against an
entrenched and well.generaled party are
always great. The partisan habit is not
easily gotten over, and this conservatism
is one of the points of security for any
machine.
A good many fusionists and indepen-
dents have broken into the house of
representatives. and will be OF service in
inaugurating legislation that is sorely
needed. The movement started in 1902
and continued this year will not down.
1t is the history OF all reforms that the
beginnings are slow footed but sure. The
days of republican walk. overs in Yer
mont are gone, and the cause of good
government is bound eventually to
triumph in democratic country Rut-
land Herald.
Barring Clements resort to intempe
rate and extravagant charges against
men and things that finally reached a
stage that threatened to besmirch the
reputation of the state and her people in
the minds of people outside that did not
know the facts, it is a good thing for
Vermont politics that such campaign
as this has taken place. The Messenger
has always believed that this state would
be better off in every way if it were not
so politically one. sided The unusual popu.
lar interest aroused by this campaign
has led the great body Of men to give
more thought to our state affairs than
the rank and file of citizenship has be-
slowed upon them in years. 1t would
be well for Vermont il every state cam
paign could cause asimiIari nterest.--rS

A Greater Vermont.

eve are standing on the TIRES
hold OF a greater and better Yer
mont. There has never been a
time when outside capital was
coming to Vermont more freely
than it is now. Within the last
decade the value of Vermonts
timber land has more than
quadrupled and is sought by the
outside capitalist more vigorously
than ever before. We are produc-
ing more manufactured products
than ever before, and still are
developing our industries at a
rapid rate. Our agriculture lands
were never worth so much in
sound money as they are today,
and the demand for farms is
constantly developing. We are
just beginning to understand the
extent and value of our stone
products, and the world is asking
US for all we can produce of
them. Our business men are
better organized than they have
been before to make public the
advantages and attractions of
Vermont with encouraging re-
suits. These things all mean a e
larger and more prosperous Yer
mont."-[W. ]. Bigelow Of the

An Important Labor Decision.
Judge Stafford Refused TO Grant In.

St. Johnsburv,
Sept. 8, 1906.


junction Against Union Buffers.
A decision OF Importance to organized
labor was rendered in the Washington
supreme court last week by Justice
Stafford. ohm Bender sought an iniunc-
ton against the union bakers and the
Central Labor Unions, asserting that he
was being illegally boycotted because he
had refused to continue his bakery as
closed shop. Circulars were distributed
by the union containing the names Of
customers of Bender, and union SYM
pathizers were asked to withhold their
patronage from both Bender and his
customers.
The union bakers commended that they
were clearly within their legal rights,
and Judge Stafford took that view of it.
He ruled:
1.-THE plaintiff has right to conduct
his business in his own way without
coercion or intimidation. The defendants
are entitled to the same privilege. They
have right to sell their labor to whom
they will, and withhold it from whom
they will. They have right to patron
ize whom they will and to withhold
their patronage from whom they will
1t seems to the court that they have a
right to call on their friends and sym
pathizers to withhold their patronage
from one who refuses to employ them
their friends and sympathizers being left
free to answer the appeal as they believe
their own interests to dictate. So long
as all parties concerned are left free to
follow their own choice, as they decide
their self-interest dictates, it seems to
the court that there has been no infringe
ment upon the personal liberty of any

The Why of 1t.

The most strenuous campaign that
Vermont has ever had is ended. The
winners have been serenaded and the
republican ticket is elected by a comfort
able majority. Both sides put up a re-
markable fight and printers ink and cam
paign speakers reached every community
in the state. The literary bureau and the
fusion speakers kept the republican
party on the defensive. and the state
committee and the republican speakers
met every charge. In so far as Mr..
Clement made this an educational cam.
paign he is deserving of credit Because
of his attacks on our state institutions
the voters know more about their
management than they eyer did before.
Though he failed to prove his charges he
compelled his opponents to conhne their
arguments to state rather than national
issues, and we shall expect to hear from
this campaign in the debates in the next
legislature. Some of the planks in his
platform are worthy ofcarefu considera-
ton and should not be ignored by any
prejudice or political bias.
A Boston daily once referred to the
Green Mountain state as "hopelessly and
helplessly republican" The returns
indicate that over AZ 900 voters believe
that Vermont is neither hopeless nor
helpless under republican rule. When
Mr.. Clement had an issue four years ago
he received over $4,000 votes and pre-.
vented an election of governor by the
people. Had the democrats endorsed his
candidacy then he would have been
elected instead Of Gov, Mccullough, as he
would have received most OF the 1000 odd
votes cast for Mr.. McGettrick, the dem.
ocratic candidate. This year with the
endorsement of the democratic party he
received only about 1000 more votes
than in 1902, while Mr.. Proctor received
over 10000 as against 1000 for Gov.
Mccullough in 1902. Mr.. Clement
lacked an issue in this campaign, fact
which be and his managers keenly
realized before the campaign was over.
Lacking an issue he attacked every
thing in sight and sought to undermine
the faith of the voters in the integrity Of
the management of our public affairs
He became a pessimist in his attitude
towards our present conditions and in
presenting his array Of figures in the
now famous red pyramid, and in his
addresses he forgot that it was Lord
Beacons6eld who once said that nothing
lied worse than facts except figures. Mr.
Proctor, on the other hand, was always
optimistic and proved that il expense.

moneys worth in better schools, better

The appearance of the North American
Review as fortnightly is another
shrewd move Of its brilliant editor, Col.
George Harvey, to broaden the service
and popularize this magazine. In its
existence Of nearly 100 years the North
American Review has had many distin-
guished editors, but not one of them has
done more to make the magazine reflect
current thought than the versatile Yer
monter who is now at its head A new
department is added in the review Of
serious current literature, but by far the
most valuable and readable contribution
is the first instalment of Mark Twain's
autobiography. Mr.. Clemens is the best
known American writer in the world and
it is fortunate that the public can have
the interesting story of his life while he
is yet living.
