WHAT OUR NEIGHBORS SAY
Vermont Must Continue to Point the
way on September I.
Grom the Brattleboro Phoenix

The Boston Transcript is one OF the In
fiucntidl papers which believes that the
Vermont result In September foreshadows
the returns in the nation at large in No
vember. 1t says: The democrats have
started out to do their best In Vermont
which votes in September, because of the
barometic value of its returns. When
ever the republican plurality there in a
presidential year falls below 5000 tho
country goes democratic. Four years
ago. when Vermont came IN with a re-
publican plurality practically undtmin
ished by the substitution o: Parker for
Bryan. the conservative democratic press
of New York city jauntly declared Yer
mont of no further service as a ba-
rometer. but the November returns show
ed that 1t had never foreshadowcd re-
suits more accurately"
VERMONT THE OPENING GUN.
(From the Island Pond Herald)
Says the Boston Herald: Not that
Vermont Is dubious. but that her State
election three weeks hence is the open
ing gun. Hence the Threatened invasion
of the State by cabinet orators" And
yet there are some editors OF Vermont
who assert that the result Of the vote in
September will have no influence upon
the rest of the country.
GET ON THE LIST.
(From the Vcrgennes Enterprise)
It should be the duty of every man who
has attained his majority to vote; and 10
this end, in addition 10 posting himself
on the issues of the day. he should SEQ
TO 1t that his name is on the check list.
Many a man through Madvertance. loses
his chance at the polls just because OF
one reason or another. he has neglected
to get his name on the list. See TO H.
yourself. that your name Is on. IL you
were told that you could not vote how
quickly you would be up in arms. Take
the freeman's privilege, and never say
that II Is not worth while.
OPEN SEASON FOR PARTRIDGES.
(From the Brattlcboro Reformer)
County Fish and Game Warden Row
ell l.. Frost was In error In his letter of
last week when ne said that the open
season on partridge and woodcock did
not open until September Is. Section 53H
OF the Vermont statutes distinctly s'S.es

Indianapolis. Aug. 25.--In his speech
on the trusts Mr.. Bryan said in part:
THE Democratic party does not
content itself with a definition of tho
wrong or with n denunciation OF It.
| II proceeds to outline remedies Tho
first is law preventing duplication
Of directors among competing corpora
tions. No one can object to this rem
! cdv unless he IS in sympathy with the

who arc victimizcd by the trusts. There
| is no easier way of sitting compcti-

tors serve for 4 number of competing
corporations. II is not necessary for
corporations to enter into an agree
mcnt for tho restraint of trade if tho
corporations can. without violating the
law, reach the same end by clcctinr

Tho second remedy Is one upon which

the fact first as last that our candi
dates we're up against a hard fight,
and the result would depend largely
upon the popularity of our candidates
and their personality and influence
with the people. As the campaign
has progressed we have seen no rea-
son TO change this estimate. PolIt-
ically this county is too close to put
up any sort Of candidate and ex-
pect him TO be winner, unless he
is deserving.
We say this without intending TO
cast invidious reflections upon any
one, as we realize now that all of
the candidates on the democratic
ticket are not going TO be successful.
We do not believe that when the
smoke Of battle is cleared away that
1t will be found that the majority of
the democratic ticket will be pro-
nounced the victors. II any OF the
democratic candidates should be de.
feated they should he 10 a position to
accept the Inevitable and rest In the
assurance that they had the best In
ilnence OF united democracy at
their back, but their defeat Is due to
uncomfortable influences. At the be-
ginning OF the campaign the republI-
cans in the comfy bad much the
better organization. The reason OF
this was due to the factional fight
which has rent the democratic party
In the state In twain. As the time
for the election drew near the gap
began TO close up and the rank and
tile began TO be imbued with some OF
the old time enthusiasm for the
ticket. Al the time Of the conven-
ton the democratic party had no or
ganization whatever, while the oppo.
sltion Is always organized from the
end OF one campaign TO the begin
ming OF the other. The republicans
can always find money with which to
do their. campaign work, while the
work OF the democrats is largely that

ciples.
While the democratic party, locally
at least, has been working under
