In 1900 Mr.. Clement was sen
ator from Rutland county. He OPP
posed both W. =. Dillingham; and
w. W. Grout for L. 5. Senator.
He worked and voted for Hon. {.
A. Prouty, formerly attorney for
Mr.. Clement and the Rutland Rail
road. OF course he must have
known then as we'll as now that As
he now says, the Republican ring
had and was squandering the hard
earned dollars of the poor people,
that officials were dishonest and in
competent, that all unscrupuloua
bossiSm like huge octopus col
lected tribute from every quarter.
He must have carried heavily upon
his conscience the burdens and
needs of the common Vermont
farmers and laborerS, but he sug-
gested no scheme for doing away
with double taxation, or a system
of improved highways, although he
carefully looked after all legislation
which might even indirectly touch
the interests of corporate rights.
He voted for state tax upon the
people, he voted against a bill to
prevent accidents at the Winooski
depot, he voted against the reor-
ganization plan of the Central Yer
mont Railroad by which certain
just obligations were to be provided
for and paid, he voted against the
election of railroad commissioners
instead OF their appointment by the
governor, and he voted against the
bill forbidding the sale of ciga-
rettes to minors. How he loves the
poor abused, downtrodden toilers
of land and shop this year, and
weeps over the terrible destruction
which has belallen this Proctor
bossed commonwealth Consist
ency thou art a virtue. Has Mr.,
Clement any to spare' Is he sin
cere in all that he is saying to the
people Is he trying to ascend to
the governorship by means OF a
ladder, every rung of which is a
statement of truth and honesty?

from the tax on corporations, there be-
ing no state tax. If Brighton paid this.
as was formerly the case, it would mean
a town tax of 1873 cents Oh every dollar

sane. DO You? If not, vote the Repub-

Some Thoughts on the Fu-
sion Rally at Island Pond.

Last week "Wednesday evening,
Mr.. Clement appeared at the opera
house and detained against the
Republican party. What else dld
he do? He said there was need
for reform. and reform must come
from the common people. Does
his beautiful private car indicate
that he considered himself one of
the common people" Is larger
percentage of Nermont's common
people, " the toiling thousands,
found in the ranks of Democracy
than counted as Republicans And
Mr.. Clement thinks this reform
which he urges the need Of, can
come only through his leadership
of the common people. y Did he
invite any of us to ride with him
III his travelling palace
That Mr.. Proctor, Speaker i'll
1900, killed his (Mr. Clement -
bill to improve methods i'll the au-
diting department of the govern
ment is absolutely false. He did
not formulate his bill and accom-
plish its passage i'll the senate until
the last day of the session. 1t was
sent to the house that day and re
ferred properly to the committee
on the judiciary, Judge Waterman
of Brattleboro, chairman. 1t was
a bill which contained elements of
good as well as possibilities of evil;
but there was no possible time to
give it due consideration i'll the last
few hours of the session, and the
committee reported against its pas
sage, and it died natural If not a
timely death. Was Mr.. Proctor at
fault because Mr.. Clement saw fit
to wait until within twenty-lour
hours of the final hour of adjourn
ment before starting his great meas
ure for reform on its way? Most
surely not. No committee possessed
of ordinary wisdom and honesty
would think of considering and leg
islating into law such a wide reach
ing measure with only few hours
time and little thought devoted to
it.
He called tho Republican party
to account because of its willing
ness to increase corporation taxes,
because that would decrease the
dividends of savings banks. The
bill to increase corporation taxes
which he helped to kill in the sen
ate of 1900 did not increase the tax
on savings bank deposits to any
great extent, if at all. The in
crease was on railroads, express,
telegraph and telephone compan-
les. He told us a tax should
be increased if need be where it
would rest lightest. Did he think
III 1900 it would rest lightest on
the common people, those who toll
for a dollar and a half a day.
Decrease of farm property if there
be any. has no direct relation to
the increase OF state expenditures.
Rather is it allied to the alarming
increase OF our home expenses for
what we call the necessities OF life:
our fathers would have called many
OF them luxuries. The principal
increase, as has been shown time
and again, has been because of bet
ter care and higher regard for the
needy and unfortunate, extended
educational advantages, watchful-
ness for the public health, the re-
straining of the criminal classes
and the settlement of disputes be
tween neighbors. Courts, schools.
