One solution of the problem of empty

force, that one wonders why is was never
thought of before. Why not have Edi-

Glow of the Pree Press elucidate the
taxation problem, Editor Stone of the
st. Johnsbury Caledonian deliver that
Sunday school lecture with the long
name and Editor Hildreth of the New

combination as this, delivered in series
of Sunday evening lectures, would fill ia

Some of the papers have arranged the
State delegation at large to the Republi-
can National convention to suit them
selves and announce that it Is to be or
should be composed of Senator Redfield
Proctor, Senator William p. Dillingham;,
Representative David J. Foster and
FranklL. Greene. OF course the State
convention may possibly not yield to the
superior qualifications of the up. State
newspapers in selecting members of the
delegation and therefore we may be out
of order in referring to the matter a tall
but the Banner is opposed to three of the
gentlemen mentioned, namely, Proctor,
Dillingham; and Foster. We have the
highest esteem for the personal and pol
itical qualifications of these gentlemen.
1t is trio of which the State is rightly
and reasonably proud, but they are men
who have asked and received much at
the hands of the voters and will, in the

The Burlington Free Press ably argues
for an uninstructed delegation to the
Chicago Convention and cities the impor-
tant part of the Vermont delegates IN the
convention that nominated Abraham
Lincoln owing to their freedom from
being instructed for VIM. H. Seward
All the reasons for non-instruction are
particularly applicable this year and on
no account should the delegation go to
Chicago hampered in any way. Indeed,
as time goes on, the selection of a man
who can win the election is more than
likely to throw present favoritisms out of
sight Morrisville Messenger.

Newspapers outside of Vermont con-
tinue to pose Senator Proctor as a
Hughes man, and by what authority no
newspaper inside OF Vermont appears to
reflect In the meantime, The Messen-

Proctor in which he is represented as de-
claring himself for Hughes are pure fab
relations and that the senator has made
no such declaration.-St. Adams Messen-

1t is rather significant of New Eng
land sentiment that the representatives
of these States in both Houses of Con
gress are not generally supporters of
Taft. Senator Frye of Maine is said to
be the only out-and-out Taft Senator
from New England, though Lodge of
Massachusetts, is counted in that way, in
a perfunctory measure. For obvious
reasons, congressman are not usually
loud voiced as to their preference at this
stage, hut the anti-Taft sentiment among
the New Englanders is well known

One of the neatest and most effective
things of its kind that has ever reached
the editorial table is the booklet issued
by the Brattleboro Board of Trade. Its
cover-title is "A Little Light" and the

flood of tint block luminance over the
subtitle n the inside cover, "Brattle-
boro, Vermont, Her Past, Present and
Future Prospects" Three notable senti-
good churches, good stores, good homes,

Now, it would be graceful thing if
some of our Hughes contemporaries in
Vermont were to arise for prayers and
forgiveness for what they may have said
or harbored in their hearts about the
'abuse of federal patronage" in New
York in the interest of Taft. Not only
are those stories one after another prov
ing to be cock and bull tales of the film
siest kind, but, just as soon as Hughes
let it be publicly known that he would
consent to be candidate, big, brainy.
broad minded Bill Taft has come straight
up to the standard of the square DEAF
man fashion and told his New York
friends not only not to embarrass the
governor by any factional feuds in his
own state, but to do nothing to hinder
New York from voting for her own adj
mired son in the national convention.
That's clean, honest. American-isn't it

Tho stereotyped "Of counsel" greet d the presidents Thanksgiving procla- nation. "'Of course, it comes on the last Thursday in November! Always has and always will. Never . presi- dart who would even think of any other date, and much less dare to nGne one!"
 But there was . president who dared to do it and did 1t. Andrew Johnson did more than ons thing that was out of the ordinary, as pursued by his pre- decessors, and in 1865, when he had been in tho executive chair but little moro than six months, he issued his first Thanksgiving proclamation, and ap- pointed the first Thursday in December as "the annual day of thanksgiving and prayer" Tho several governors con formed to the change, the governor of Rhode Island alone dissenting and standing in tho old way. Little Rhcdy ate it's turkey on November 30, and else whera the bird was served on Decem- ber T.
 President Johnson had an eye on the meeting of the Thirty ninth congress when he wrote that proclamation, and was satisfied that the Legislators needed the grace of humility and some other graces.

lr1. ROOT ron THR SENATE

Elihn Root would Atly represent tho Empire state of the Union in the Sen ate of the United States. He would more ably represent it, indeed, than any other republican of that great Common wealth who seeks tho honor.
 Undoubtedly tho foremost man of tho state, excepting only the president, hs Is undoubtedly, also, one of the fore most statesmen of the nation and of tho age.
 In the appraisement of this newspa per--and 1t is an appraisement un warped by partisanship in any sense- Elihu Rot is the ablest man that has come prominently into the national limelight in recent years. As Secretary of War under Mckinley, and Secretary of State under Roosevelt, he has been identified, honorahly and brilliantly, with the course of events in the most memorable epoch of his country's later history. His ability has stood the test in varied directions. He has demon strated statesmanlike qualities of the highest order and grasp of interna- tinal affairs that has commanded world wide respect and challenged universal admiration.
 Tho pages of history which record the achievements of these memorable times --the achievements of McKinley's and Roosevelt's administrations--will give due recognition, of course, to the splens did part that Elihu Root played there. in, and 80 his name will live regardless of any turn of the political fortune wheel. But those pages of history will not be properly rounded out unless they show that his native state was no less conscious that the world at large of his surpassing work and worth. And so VIC hope that New York will elect him to the United States senate and thus be httingly represented fttingiy-in that august lawnaking body which needs the services of such statesmen as he.
