M0TORCYClSTS WILL RIDE
 100 MILES FOR 4 RECORD

\ Tuesday afternoon at the fair grounds, beginning at ? o'clock promptly, an ef- fort will be made by four motorcycle rid CTS to smash the 1O0-mile record estab- lished some time ago in Philadelphia by Stanley Kellogg.
 For 100 times the magnificent track will be circled in a time limit, it is believed, of less than two hours.
 The record at the present time was made in 2:05S6
 The favorite in the Tuesday race will be Robert Stubbs. the local man, who has hung rings about all competitors through out a period of five years. Stubbs be- lieves he will snatch from Kellogg his worlds record, and there are many who feel as he does. In addition to Stubbs, R. w. Gala and A. w. Meager will ride fve-horse power Indians, and the Amer ican Motor company will be represented by W. D. Gresham on an eght-horse power M. M.
 The local club has secured a sanction from the Federation of American Motor- cyclists, and if the Ncord is smashed it will be officially posted.
 Interest in motorcycling is rapidly in- creasing, not only in Birmingham, but throughout America Attention has re- gently been attracted to the motorcycle by a daring driver circling a mile track in 54 seconds. Stubbs sped around the local track during the fair in 54, but the time was not officially kept.
 In addition to the big event Tuesday there will be a five-mile handicap and five-mle race for private owners.

Essex County Politics.

Present indications are that the
Republican county convention in
Gallant Little Essex" will be a
very harmonious event, as has
been the rule rather than the ex-
ception for many years past. One
would almost say an over-produc-
ton of harmony, for political oppo-
sition is very wholesome restraint.
Today the Republican situation
in the county is about as follows:
For senator no one is NEIL
toned only Martin V. B. Vance, OIL
Lunenburg, man who served his
country in time of need, one who
has had Legislative experience, is
highly respected-not only by his
townspeople, but throughout the
county generally a man of ability
and integrity, in fact in every way
we'll qualified for the position, and
to which he will bring honor alike
to himself, and the county.
For assistant judges there is in
evidence sentiment that the pres.
ent incumbents should be renomi
mated. If this course commends
itself to the convention two gooc
men will be continued in office
Hon. O. B. Cutting has served the
customary two terms, and his asso
ciate, Hon. c. H. McGinnis, is
serving by appointment the unex
pired term of J. H. Beattie, de

There are many and various rea-
SONS why George II. Prouty should
at this time be made Governor OF
Vermont i'll preference to any other
man whose name has been men
toned for the place. But princi-
pal of these is because he is a bust
ness man of large affairs. capable,
energetic and reliable. There ism t
a wide chasm between managing a
large industry and managing the
affairs of a commonwealth. They
both require mind alert and all ex-
perience that has been a wise and
profitable teacher. Conducting
the office OF chief executive to-day
calls for men who know the re-
quirements of the individual pat
ron of an industry and the individ-
ual patron of a state-and we are
all the latter. We intrust ou1
funds to the banks because they
deal in money. We consult the

and prosperity of the state? 1t i,

to continue in the same Progressive
way after George H. Prouty ha

An Unwise Appeal to Prejudice

A letter hearing ths signature of John
l.. Barstow Of Shelburne, an ex governor
Of Vermont, commencing the candidacy
of led Stanton Tor the governorship
nomination, has been quite generally
published in the state papers. In, that
letter, the venerable ex-governor makes
emphatic part taken by Mr.. Stanton
when the latter was state senator, in
support of bill designed to increase
corporation taxes, 1t seems that the
Hon. P. w. Clement was member of
the senate the same year aud assumed
leadership in that body in opposition to
the bill and. with the support that came
to him, succeeded intoxicating it. In ref
erence to Stanton's attitude toward the
bill Ex-Governor Barstow concludes his
letter with this paragraph:
at seems to be good logic to say that
now we should vote for the man who
facet AR. Clement and did his best to
secure the passage of the bill"
Ii there is one point in this utierance
upon which the entire argument hangs,
it is that which declares that Stanton
"faced Mr.. Clement" Whether the bill
had sufficient merit to make its passage
wise legislation or not, or whether Stan
tons support of it was justified by its
merits or not, ex-Gov. Barstow does not
say, The alleged fact that the Roxbury
man, chronic, persistent and perennial
sitter beneath the political apple tree
that he is, STAGED Mr.. Clement seems
to have been enough for the purposes of
The letter writer.
Logically, of course, if there was any
facing, as Stanton favored the bill and
Clement opposed it Clement "faced"
Stanton and its other supporters. Glenn
ent's part being defensive rather than
offensive. II the act was in any sense
an example of heroism, then the credit
for heroic accomplishment rather he
longs to Clement than to Stanton.
That is. so far as ex-Gov. Barstow treats
the case.
That Mr.. Clements name should he
brought into the present contest, even
through the medium above noted is a
peculiar strategic movement. But any
attempt to trade upon the prejudice that
nay still exist among Vermont Repnb-
lcans against Hon. P. w. Clement, car
not be looked upon otherwise than H.
timed and not directed toward the COM
piete party harmony that should charac-
terize presidential election year. Mr..
Clement is not factor in this years
campaigning Int his friends are still
numerous and they properly may take
exception to the landation of Stanton as
having "faced" Mr.. Clement. If that as
sertion becomes responsible for some
measure OF detection on the part of
Clement sympathizers from possible
support OF Stanton's candidacy, it will
not he surprising.
In this connection it is pleasing to
note that Iieuteiant-tSoverno Pronty
IN his campaign for the governorship is
making no appeal to any prejudice with
in the party that has become history and
which should be allo we'd to remain nm.
molested history in this presidential
year. A united, progressive and ag-
gressive Republicanism is what he
stands for and what he ia a part of and
whoever Others have "faced," he faces
directly ahead and invites every element
OF the party to look with him in that
same Objectionable Caledonian.
