A spirited controversy is on between

For the Good of HIGHWAYS,

The state highway commissioner, c.
", Gates cannot be charged with elec
tioneering, but he is putting in good
word for the present road commissioners
in the various towns of the state. Com
missioner Gates is firm believer in keep
ing good road builders in office because
OF their experience, and it must be ad.
mltted that there is good deal of sound
advice contained in the recommendation
1t is said that at the present time about
one halt the towns have commissioners
who have had at least one years ex
ptrience in office and who should be
therefore better qualified to build roads
than new men. And what Vermont is
looking for is a corps OF competent
supervisors OF road construction, men
who will follow well defined and modern
methods OF operation. Where careful
business men and conscientious workers
are now in office, it would be extremely
unwse to make changes for political
reasons; the towns would be better off
in dollars and cents and in quality of
their highways to retain those official
So Commissioner Gates may be pardoned
it he appears to be advocating present
ofhce-holders.- Barre Times.

Mr.. Clements Republicanlsm in Cues
ton.

We call attention TO an editorial OF the
Rutland Evening News printed elsewhere,
in which our neighboring contemporary
questions the true-blue quality OF Mr..
Clements political affiliations. Unless
Mr.. Clement can answer these questions
in calm and dspassionate manner, the
great bulk OF republican voters cannot
be blamed if they regard Mr.. Clements
republicanism with some skepiicism and
the motive behind it all as being intense
ly personal. This is, indeed the most
serious question yet proposed t)r expla
nation. Mr.. Clement should be heard on
this subject and as he has advertising
space in nearly every section OF the state,
he can take the voters into his confidence
and brush away the charge OF dlsloyalty
to the Republican party. But such an
indirect and bluffy answer as Mr..
Clements paper, The Rutland Herald,
makes in answer to a similar
charge made by the Burlington Free
Press won't 60 down. This is not a
charge Of boiling Republican conven
tor, but rather of knocking loudly al
the door OF Democratic convention.

Current Press Comment.
For Civic Duty.

1t is pleasant to note that our promi-
nent public men are not ne gectIul OF their
civic duties. The press widely com
mented the other day on the fact that
ex Governor Barstow served on grand
jury. Today we note that Ex-Governor
Page has been appointed first license
commissioner OF the town OF Hyde Park.
In each case good example is set for
our citizens who are apt to shirk public
duties OF an onerous and tnankless kind.
And in each case able and conscientious
service is assur d. Burlington News.

Eat What
You Like
Don't Stdrve or Diet. but use Mi
O-nd, and Cure Your Stomach
Troubles.

The average treatment of stomach
troubles consists of rigid diet list,
which often halt starves tie patient. OF
course it would be foolish for anyone
who knows that some foods are positive.
ly harmful and poisonous to continue
eating them, even while following the
Mona treatment, but in ordinary
cases of stomach troubles it is not
necessary to starve or diet il Mi o-na is
faithfully used, tablet before each meal
This scientific remedy, Tor the cure OF
stomach troubles, acts upon the whole
digestive system, and strengthens the
organs so that they are able to digest
any food that is eaten without fear Of
distress.
W. B. Eastman has so much conf lence
in the power OF Mi.o-na to cure stomach
troubles and resulting ills. that he gives
guarantee with every so cent box to
refund the money unless it cures.

tie question OF Mr.. Clements present
political classification. This is a ques-
ton, too, that the voters will canvass
thoroughly between this time and the
holding OF The caucuses to elect delegates
to the state republican convention.
To be sure. in his letter announcement
last fall, Mr.. Clement stated that heshoud
be a candidate tor governor in the next
republican convention. But he did not
state whether he should enter the CONVEX
ton as republican or al free lance. In
considering this matter it is not unfair to
Judge OF the future by the past.
In 1902 Mr.. Clements vote in the
republican state convention was 221,
out of total OF 725. In the democratic
convention, few days later, it was SO,
out OF total vote OF 354. A lew days
later still in local option convention be
swept the board clean, by unanimous vote.
If Mr.. Clement was then, 10 1902, a
straight out-and-out republican it S the
first instance on record at least in Yer
mont, of such republican being candidate
in three different conventions in one cam
paign.
Will the Rutland candidate allege that
he was taken up in that democratic con-
vention spontaneously-yoted for as a
candidate contrary to his wishes and
pronounced desires-without his know
ledge or COZ sent? In such event then
certainly the Nnety-and-N Nine cannot be
used against his true blue republicanism
What are the tacts2 Can Mr.. Clement
prove an abb on that convention
Where was he on the afternoon and
evening just prior to that convention
ard what was he Going? Was he hob.
nobbing with republican leaders or re-
publican laymen? Had not the virus of
his political ambition so permeated that
that, too, by his own
it took the combined
forts OF such staunch old democratic
war horses as Thomas w. Moloney, John
Il. Senter and Others to stay the tide
When caucus time comes, will that
Nlnet y-and-Nne stick close in the crop OF
very true republican? And who can
Mr.. Clement blame if it does p Rutland
