Our County Convention.

The county convention for the
of Essex county con-
venes at Guildhall, Tuesday, July
!. We can but urge at this time
that delegates should meet at the
county seat with the purpose OF
placing i'll nomination only those
men who are known for their hon
esty of purpose and strength of
personal character. We are n small
county but we shall be ably repre-
scented in the senate by a man OF
high ideals and honest convictions.
And the nominees for the other
offices will be men OF proven probi-
ty and right principles. Public
opinion has seemingly settled up.
on the nominees for these offices,
so that probably there will be nc
contest. All the men elected tc
positions of trust become thereby
servants Of the people, and as such
they must comprehend the people,
needs so far as they come within
their keeping, and then they mus
fearlessly perform every duty i
they would prove worthy of tn
choice. The republican ticket il
the county will undoubtedly b
elected in September, and may
be ticket, which anyone can vot
whole heartedly.

Cheaper Foreign Postage.

After the first of October, it will
cost no more to send a letter to
London or to any other point in
Great Britain than to send it to
Island Pond or another point in
this country; and persons in Great
Britain who write to friends in this
country will enjoy a similar privi-
lege. This is a special arrange
ment just perfected by the postal
authorities of the two governments
and announced simultaneously at
London and Washington. Add to
this lowering of the postal rate the
greater celebrity of service, as dem
onstrated in the record breaking
teatS of the Lusitania and the
Mauritania, and it must be realized
that the new world and the old are
SeltlnS closer together. The trip
across is now made in considerably
less than five days. and the ships
that are doing it have earned a
subsidy from the British govern
nent of $4,000 a year. There
IS JOY at every approach, for the
thought is the closer our associa-
ton i'll peace, the less chance for
misunderstanding and war. What
Great Britain has been able to do
should be possible to other govern.
ments, and there will be pleasur G
at every such arrangement.

1t seems that Congressman Has
kins has mustered into his service
representatives of the National
Manufacturers Association, and
the republican congressional COM
mittee, who are actively engaged
i'll cam paign work throughout this
district. This is certainly about
the limit. Clements coon quar-
tette perhaps couldn't have been
duplicated in Vermont, but Mr..
Haskins, if any substantial part Of
the voters in the district really
want him for congressman, could
obtain the services of able and ex-
perienced campaigners from among
his constituents. That Mr.. Has
kins did not appreciate how this
importation of alien labor would
be regarded by Vermonters fur
nishes marked indication of the
extent to which he has become out
OF touch with the Vermont temper
ament and ideals.

Recently the Enosburg STANDARD

Recently the Enosburg Standard
said editorially:
at is asserted on what is believed to
be good authority that conference was
held in the office of the Central Vermont
Railroad Company in St. Adams at
which Mr.. Stanton and the attorneys
and lieutenauts OF the Central in the
county"
Now Mr.. Stanton, in a public
letter says: THE statement is
unqualifedly false in whole and in
every particular" That is to say
(I) that there was no conference
of any sort in the St. Adams Office
of the Central Vermont at the
time in question; (2) that Mr..
Stanton was not present then and
there at conference of any sort +;
go that no attorney or lieutenant
OF the Central Vermont then and
there took part in any conference.
The denial is pretty broad. 1t
seems passing strange, however,
that the Standard should print edi-
torially and the St. Adams Messen-
ger should copy, a statement so
utterly without foundation i'll fact.
