THE VERMONT DELEGATION.

The latest addition to the list Of candi-
dates for position on the Vermont delega-
ton to the republican national conven-
ton is Gen. i. G. Butterfeld of
Derby Line, Orleans county. This
makes the list on tho east side at the
present time Senator w. i. Dillingham;
Attorney-General c. c. Fits, Editor
Arthur F. Stone Of the st. Johnsbury
Caledonian and Gen. Butteried. The
candidates on the west side to date are
Congressman d. J. Foster, Editor Frank
l.. Greene OF the st. Adams Messenger
and Editor r. w. McCuen of the YER
gennes Enterprise and Vermonter. There
is room for at least one more candidate
on the west side, and 1t is not impossible
that other candidates will appear on
both sides OF the State.
1t is interesting to note in this connen-
Burlington weekly free press. [volume] (Burlington, Vt.) 1866-1928, 1908-03-19

ton that the list of candidates who have
appeared thus far represent both Hughes
and Taft sentiment, and 1t Is peculiar
fact that with an occasional exception
there Is a general disposition to trust the
men selected to support whichever Of
thess candidates seems to have the best
chance Of winning at the polls when the
national convention assemblies. If there
is any good reason why a majority or
the delegates to the Vermont State con-
yention desire the delegation to Chicago
to support any one candidate regardless
of the outlook for his election, there Is
no law to prevent them from saying
so, for the convention is a law unto IT,
self.

A HOT SEASON IN VERMONT.

Vermont is evidently on the verge
Of one Of the greatest political cam
paigns for republicans in its history.
Glance at the list of elections to take
place this year. There will be two
state conventions to which delegates
must be chosen. First comes the cleo
ton OF delegates TO the national con-
vention in April and probably in June
a convention will be held to nominate
n state ticket Then follows in Sep
TENDER the election of complete list
Of State officers, two congressman,
members of both branches of the
Legislature, and county officers When
the Legislature meets in October it
will have two United States Senators
TO elect and there is no telling what
else 1t may take It into It's head to do
There will not be contests over all
the places mentioned, but it Is safe to
say that the year in Vermont politics
will be something lingering" and II
is not impossible some people may
wish the whole legislative session had
been held In March as an extra"

vERMoNT's SENIOR U. s. SENATOR.


Tho Washington correspondent of the
Springfield Republican pays an apprecla-
tive tribute 10 Vermont's present senior
United States senator. the Hon. William
p. Dillingham;. He says among other
things:
death not only removes old figures
from the Senate and brings forward
new ones, but it also changes the rela-
tive importance Of those who remain.
Senator Proctor's death raises Senator
Dillingham; OF Vermont into position Of
greater influence as the senior senator
from that State. Senator Dillingham's
present term will expire next year, but
there seems TO be no question whatever
of his reelection. He first entered tho
Senate In 1900 on being chosen to fill the
vacancy caused by the death of Senator
Morrill,, and In 1902 he was elected for
the full term IN which he is now serving.
Senator Dillingham; Is n man Of UNI
assuming traits, who has not sought the
Spotlight But ne IS held In high personal
regard and Is considered a man OF ability
and sound Judgment. As chairman OF the
immigration committee he holds a posi-
ton Of much Importance and is also a
member of the judiciary committee, APP
pointment to which Is so eagerly sought
by the lawyers OF the Senate. His career
as the senior senator from Vermont
should be worth watching"
