THE VERMONT ELECTION.
Result of Victory Indicates Undi-
minished Majorities for Republi-
cans in November.

Raymond the Washington CORE
spondent Of the Chicago Tribune, who
IL regarded as one of the most reliable
political writer's in the country regards
the result of the Vermont election as
presaging absolute victory for Mr.. Taft.
In a recent special dispatch to the
Tribune Raymond said:
practically speaking, the result of
Tuesdays election is more favorable to
the Republicans than they had any
right to expect, because there has been
I'D determined campaign for the purpose
OF making good showing in Vermont
and few of the big guns Of the party
have been put on the stump there this
year.
There is, Of course, slight falling
of in the vote Of both Republicans and
Democrats, as compared with four
years ago. but this was entirely to be
expected, because at that time ROose-
welt was the nominee Of his party for
president, and the result in Vermont In
that year was merely a forerunner of
the tremendous landslide which took
place nj, over the country.
"As 1t is, the plurality Of over $4,000
at Yesterdays election ID taken to be
an indication that, while the campaign
this year is not to be sensational one,
the election OF Mr. Taft Is fOreshadowed
by safe majority.
eff Vermont can be taken as an in
dex Of the condition of public opinion
throughout the country, it means that
in the November election, whatever
strength the Independence League de-
velops in the other States will come
almost exclusively from Bryan and not
from Taft
'The Vermont Democrats, while few
In number are extremely rockribbed in
their sentiments. They make a point Of
going to the polls year after year and
carry on hopeless fight merely be-
cause they want to set good example
to the Democrats in other States. In
1896 they repudiated Bryan and the free
silver heresy, and they did it largely
by staying at home ON election day
The result was a plurality of a little
over 10000 for Mckinley, which has
been a record in Vermont elections. In
the State elections of 1900 and 1904
the Democratic vote was practically
stationary"

MEN OF THIRD ESTATE MET
AND "REAS0NED TOGETHER"
Great Northern Editorial Association Elected Officers and
Decided to Spend Entire Weeks Outing in Bemidj Next
June.-..Many Interesting Papers Read I'll

The first annual meeting of the
Great Northern Editorial associa-
ton was held in Wadena Friday
evening, December 4, and part of
Saturday, December S, and a per-
manent organization perfected, the
association having been started at
an informal meeting of the editors
along the Sank Center-Bemidji line
of the Great Northern railway at a
meeting held at Park Rapids last
June.
The following editors were present.:
A. NJ. Wells, Sank Center Herald;
P. S. Dorsey, Deer Creek Mirror;
A. w. Sheets, Todd County Argus;
Rudolph Lee, Long Prairie Demo-
crat; w. E. Hutchinson, Todd
County News; I. C.. COPYRIGHT,
Bertha Headlight; H. M. Hender-
son, Verndale Sun; G. c. Eastman
and F. A. Swindlehurst, Wadena
Pioneer Journal; M. E. sherwood,
Sebeka Review; F. A. Dare, Walker
Pilot; and c.. ]. Pryor, Bemidji Daily
Pioneer.
The meeting was called to order
in the parlors of the Merchants
Hotel att o'clock Friday evening,
when President Rudolph Lee gave
his address to the association.
Mr.. Lee said in part:
II am glad to have the privilege
of calling to order the first regular
meeting of our editorial association.
I am glad to note that the attend
ence here tonight is so large.
I am glad TO note the interest
among the newspaper brethren,
because it indicates a desire for a
little closer working relation also
desire that we become better
acquainted with one another.
Our association was born largely
of the thought of the moment, and,
like many another good and useful
organization, it grew out of a meet
ing called for an altogether different
purpose. I can see a very useful
future ahead for the Great Northern
Editorial association, because if it is
the wish of the editors living within
the state, the association may be
made to live and flourish. .
"A local association such as ours
would be can be made of more
immediate and direct benefit to its
members than can larger associa-
ton which necessarily cannot con-
Germ itself with conditions strictly
local in nature.
I believe, therefore, that if the
members of this association, desire
to recognize it, we have an oppor-
tunity for the discussion and the

both sides. T.
The editorial utterances of the
party organ lauds the candidate of
its own party, generally regardless
of their character or ability. While,
if it gives anything about the op-
position candidate it either belittles
them or throws mud at. them. An
independent newspaper, not being
allied with either party, can, in its
editorial column discuss questions
and candidates from an unbiased
standpoint, fairly and without fear
or favor, urging the support of those
which it believes are the best men
and the best things to be voted for.
To secure the public's confidence
and respect, the newspaper must
first show that it is sincere in its
advocacy of men and measures. 1t
must demonstrate that it is some
thing besides a mere organ; it must
elucidate the fact that it's opinions
are its own, and not bought and
paid for, either with sordid gold or
promise Of government position. or
preferment. 1t must stand for the
right things and the best inter- SIS,
and be at all times the champion of
the people. 1t is my honest opinion
that a newspaper, continued along
these lines cannot fail to establish
for itself the highest prestige.
A solution Of the problems of the
success Of the independent news
paper lies with. the plain people,
and not with the party managers,
political bosses, ward healers, or
selt-appionted dictators. The PEG.
pie constitute the court of last resort.
Let newspaper once convince the
people that it is honest; that it is
fair; that its utterances are it's own;
that it is their friend and the people
will stay with it to the last ditch.
That's where the greatest prestige
is obtained"
Mr.. Welles' paper contained
many more valuable suggestions,
but space will not permit the re-
publication thereof.
A. G. Rutledge, managing editor
of the Bemidji Daily Pioneer, was
unable to be present at the meeting,
owing to illness, and his paper,
The Passing of the Tramp Printer"
was read by the secretary.
Mr.. Rutledge deplored the fact
that the all-around man was rapidly
passing from the ranks of the
printers of the present day.
Few of the men now employed
in the printing offices can perform
more than one kind of labor. 1t
was different in the olden days, when
men learned the trade by starting
in as "deviP' and going through the
entire list from compositor, pressman

consideration of local matters effect
ing the general newspaper environ
ment of the territory that it will de-
velop into an agency for the happy
solution of many of our harder
problems."
A. M. Welles, of the Sank Center
Herald then read an interesting
paper on The Independent News
paper, from the Standpoint of the
Papers Prestige and a Financial
prosperity"
Mr.. Welles discussed at length
the conditions confronting the in
dependent newspaper. He said:
Though the American voters
used to vote the ticket straight he
doesn't do so any more. A glance
at the returns from the late election
in Ohio, New York, Indiana, North
Dakota, Missouri and in our own
North Star state is enough to con-
vince the most skeptical that the
split ticket was in evidence to
very greater extent then ever before.
The Australian ballot started
few things, the primary election law
helped; the dictation of party bosses
produced the finished product. The
American voter has at last come into
his own.
Many view with alarm the tend
ency to independent voting. While
I would not, for a moment think of
abolishing party leaders or party
organization, yet I believe that the
independent voter is the safety valve
of American politics. He is causing
the party managers to sit up and
take notice and forcing them to
nominate clean men by honorable
methods; and conduct campaigns in
which the search light shall reveal
no dark. places.
He is the direct cause of the
standard of the political morals being
raised to higher plane and into a
purer atmosphere.
The Independent newspaper is
corollary of the preceding PROPOSE
ton. People no longer pin their
faith entirely or blindly to the paper
whose god is party. The partisan
organ supresses much valuable news
especially during heated campaign,
while much that it does publish
is so colored as to be unreliable.
The newspaper should be fair; as
party organ it is not. It can be
if it wants to,but it generally doesn't
want to.
There is steadily growing
demand by the reading public for
full information. 1t wants to read
both sides. The desire to investi-
gate before forming its opinion.
The partisan newspaper as rule,
prints only one side-its own side.
The independent newspaper gives

TO study their lives and from
them draw inspiration.
"To contemplate death, to re-
new our faith in Immortality and
to revere God:
Throughout the country today,
as the roll of Elks is called, names
of many loved ones will remain
alphabetically unanswered and our
brothers are at this moment, in every
locality, thinking of them lovingly
and speaking of them justly, their
memories are reverting to their USE
fulness when among us and phrasing
our gratitude. And we, the men,
bers of Bemidji lodge, imbued with
the spirit of brotherly sympathy and
affection, approve the words of
eulogy that are spoken, and join in
the sentiment of sorrow that is
expressed, and mingle our tribute of
love and consolation with that
bestowed by our brothers.
Upon our own roll of the dead
but one name has yet been inscribed
i but one brother fails to respond
from our membership, but one has
been called by the Exalted Ruler of
the Universe to the great beyond.
"The name Of that one which
we have been required to transfer
from our list of active members to
begin our roll of the dead, is Patrick
A. Walsh. Many of us knew him
we'll outside the lodge room and
are familiar with his standing as a
citizen and his record as an i'm
portant official of our neighboring
county of Koochiching, and our
knowledge causes us to be proud
of his membership in our order.
He was a kind, considerate and
honorable man, and his life. we'll
exemplihed our two cardinal prin-
ciples, justice and charity.
"One other universally respected
and greatly beloved member of
our order has been lately called
from among us to his eternal home.
II refer to George A. Markham,
who was a charter member of
Bemidji lodge and later became a
member of Hibbing lodge.
His genial disposition, manly
character and general trustworthi.
ness made him a popular Elk and
a universal favorite. His young
life was an embodiment of the
principal proclaimed by the Golden
Rule, so emphasized by the Elks'
ritual. Our knowledge of the beauty
of his life and the kindliness OF
his nature abides with US. That
memory is his monument.
TO my mind, no better eulogy,
no more appropriate expression OF
praise of our departed brothers could
be spoken, than to call attention to
the principles, the protested ten
ents of the order of Elks, which
principles and teachings, they, by
reason of their membership, pro-
claimed to the world that they be.
lieved in and we're guided by.
The creed of the Elk is the
fatherhood of God-the brotherhood
of man.; his faith the living words
of the Prince of Peace; his charity
as broad and general as the pure
air. Eschewing every semblance
of sectarianism, on every lodge
alter is found the Holy Bible; and
to make apparent the fact that the
order is distinctly American, gu,
alters are first draped with the stars
