PUT OUR LEADING MEN IN 'FRONT.'.

Inc Island Pond Herald copies our
editorial with reference to the desira-
bility Of sending among our delegates TO
tho next republican national convention
some of our men OF national reputation
and influence so that Vermont may have
voice in shaping the destnies of the
party as we'll as OF the nation during
the coming four years, and comments as
follows:
The Herald most heartily endorses the
article copied elsewhere from the Bur
lington Free Press. Vermont has ever
been a prominent figure at a national
republican convention by reason Of the
calibre of the delegates representing her.
men of great intellectual and executive
ability and statesmanlike character.
Senator Proctor, Vermont's grand old
man, has twice headed the delegation
from this state, and should again. He has
recovered his health and strength, and
is therefore once more able to give of
his great resources for the good OF tho
party. No man is more In touch with
the powers that he than he; no man is
quicker to grasp a situation calling for
alertness in Il critical moment, and none
more keen to the responsibilities of the
occasion. For these reasons and his
great prominence in the country and his
national acquaintance he is prc-emnent-
ly the man to lead the Vermont delega-
ton In the next national republican con
ventioH. with him should he our Junior
senator, W. =. Dillingham;. who has
shown n great breadth of mind and polit-
cal sagacity, and possesses a broad
sweep of intellect, With these two for
our leaders Vermont's representation
would be the peer of any State in the
union.
All Of these sentiments will be heartily
endorsed
It is also worth noticing in this con-
nection that Massachusetts republicans,
recognizing the fact that the party will
need its wisest counsellors in the ma
tional convention, is preparing to include
In its delegation to that assembly Sena-
resentation from the lower branch of
Congress. The Bay State republicans
are usually careful to make their influ-
ence felt In every possible way, and It
behooves our State to adopt a similar
course IL we are to hold our own in
comparison with other States in prestige
and influence.
Vermonters do not need to recall the
telling effect of Senator Proctor's repeti-
ton in impressive voice that Vermont
cast her eight votes for BENJAMIN Harri-
son, or the part which our State PLAYED
during the Harrison administration in
consequ zee. might have had as

GRAY MAY DISPLACE BRYAN.

1t has been generally supposed for
some time that william j. Bryan WAS
practically certain to be selected as the
democratic candidate for the presi-
dency, and he has apparently suspected
as much himself In connection with
his recent refusal to take himself out
OF the way in favo rof some other can
didacy that would appeal to all classes
OF democrats, the Nebraskan announced
that the people must decide whether
he or somebody else were the man, evil
IDENTIFY firm in the belief that the demo-
cratic masses are with him.
According to all accounts concern
ing sentiment at the meeting of the
democratic national committees con-
ference at French Lick, Ind, the Bryan
skies are not so clear as he might like
10 have them. 1t is stated that while
on the surface everything appears TO
be Bryan. there IS n strong undcrcur-
rent OF doubt and questioning in the
minds OF members OF the committee
regarding the advisability Of again
mitteemen are quoted as expressing
the hope that something may occur
during the coming session Of Congress
which will make 1t possible for some
other man to come to the front and
contest the nomination with Bryan.
Indications are multiplying that
about the selection of Judge Gray Of
Delaware as the next standard bearer
of the democracy 1t is urged in be-
half Of this project that Judge Gray
Is man Of the highest character who
would be acceptable to all classes and
especially to the business interests Of
the country. Inasmuch as he halls
from Delaware bis nomination is held
to be one that would strongly appeal
to the South, and his selection could
not excite jcalousies in any of the
large States.
1t Is argued in some quarters that
some Of the business interests which
reel that the country needs rest more
than anything else would not object TO
the election OF conservative demo
crat as president, inasmuch as the
fact that the United States Senate is
strongly republican and likely to re-
main so for some years would prevent
legislation that might disturb business
and prolong uncertainty generally.
