The political horizon in Vermont

After the delegates and alternates had
been selected the committee on resolu-
tons reported, the secretary reading
the resolutions in strong, resonont
voice.
NJ. J. Hapgood of Peru was recognize
ed at this point He thought the pro-
ceeding had been what yon might call
tame" and he offered this resolution;
Resolved, that the sentiment Of this
convention strongly endorses the poll
cies Of President Roosevelt and de.
mands their continuance either under
his own guidance or under that of those
in full sympathy"
After some discussion Mr.. Hapgood
said he would make the resolution
stronger and submitted the following:
Resolved, that the sentiment of this
convention strongly indorses the poll
cies of President Roosevelt and de-
mands then continuance under his own
guidance, if possible, and if not, under
that Of those in full sympathy"
Mr.. Hapgood backed up his resolu-
ton with an effusion at once poetical
and political. II ran through six stan
zas, two ending with "Roosevelt's the
man for you and me-, and the climax
coming with "Stay where you are,
Theodore Roosevelt"
Mr.. Hapgood was the central figure
for several minutes and before he sat |
down several speakers had been heard
on various phases of the subject. Even
tually the motion OF Mr.. Lawrence of
Rutland was adopted, to the effect that
the resolution be laid on the table.
Mr.. Hapgood's efforts were taken good
naturedly and greeted frequently with
laughter.

of Pythias and members of the
Pythian Sisterhood attended the
services at the First Baptist Church
last sunday morning and listened to
a sermon by the Rev. Theodore Ly-
man Frost on the subject, "The
Voice Behind Thee" Mr.. Frost's
address is spoken of as being excel
lently adapted to the occasion and
pleasing and profitable to the mem
bers of the fraternal orders and to
those who made up the balance of
the congregation. The Church was
appropriately decorated with ma
tional flags and the colors of the
Pythian orders. Flowers also were
made use of with beautiful effect.
All decorative work was done under
the direction of Alfred Thompson.
After the services at the Church
the knights and members of the
Pythian Sisterhood proceeded to the
South Cemetery where memorial
services of an impressive nature were
held.

A CONSTITUTIONAL QUESTION.

News comes from Bridgeport that gentleman of means and promln- ence' questions the constltutlonality of the voting machine in this state, and intends to take the matter to the courts In the fall As a result. that city may not be able to use them at the next election, in spite of the pralseworthy action of its board of aldermen In overriding the veto of the mayor It Is said that Mayor Lee, too, has some serious fears that the machines are unconstitutional He says he intends to wait until the re- turn of his good friend Stiles Judson, (late temporary governor of the state of Connecticut), from Europe to ask him his opinion in the matter,
 For fear some of our own city fa- thers and others in New Haven may take up this strain of thought, let the truth be known now. Amendment 33 of the state constitution, adopted Oc- tober. 1905. provides as follows; Voting machines, or other mechan- ical devices for voting, may be used in all elections in this state, nnder such regulations as may be prescribed by law. provided, however. that the right of secret voting shall be pre- served" The voting machine does preserve the right of secret voting | In fact 1t does 1t SO well that 1t makes
 impractical the buying of votes by crooked politicians, since they are to- tally unable to learn, with any cer' l tainty, whether the votes they buy are cast as instructed. The machines insure such secret voting that tho machine" in politics must, perforce fight them persistently It should no take Brother Judson to set His Honor of Bridgeport on the right track.

fore President Roosevelt's, And Ar thur I, Vorys has been selected to take charge of the campaign In the state of Ohio exclusively, making his re- ports direct to MT Taft Perhaps the fact that his responsibility does not extend farther than that may be said to be largely due to the fact that he only attended Ohio state unlversi- ty one year It Is interesting to learn that the Intercollegiate brotherhood Is getting together satisfactorily It Is pleasing to realize that Yale man Is leading them all
 Although the appointment of Mir. Sheldon was somewhat of a surprise, the action seems to be wise one. Not until the very day of his selection had his name been canvassed In the con ferences. But his endorsement by MT, Taft and Cornelius Newton Bliss, who held the position In question from 1892 to 1904, and who refused to accept 1t again, stands for much. MT. Sheldon was treasurer of the suc- cessful New York state republican committee during the fight which put Governor Hughes in office. At that time he became thoroughly familiar with the workings of the campaign publicity laws of the state, in which he believes and with which he may be expected to work In entire har- mony
 The selection of Mir. Hitchcock is a commendable one, too. His manage ment of the Taft nomination boom was excellently done. But just what he meant by announcing not many days ago that he would not accept the managership which he now has ac- cepted Is problem that he alone can clear up Some unfortunate friction was expected in Ohio. should he be se- lected There Mir.

THE ABSURD HOBsoN.

The peace loving citizens of the coun- try. no matter to what party they be- long, will feel grateful to the Demo- cratic convention for openly jeering Congressman Richard P. Hobson for predicting a war with Japan as an ex- cuse for persuading the Democratic party to advocate in It's platform a huge navy. IA more ridiculous appear ance than he made upon the floor of the convention could not be imagined and 1t is creditable to the delegates present that they gave him to consider an object lesson in the gentle art of thinking common sense.
 If we ever have war with Japan or any other nation in the wide world, 1t will be because just such powder spit ting persons as Hobson successfully un- dertake the job of inflamng the public mind with red hot speeches. For over three years now, this explosive young gentleman has been prancing up and down the country prophesying the slow but sure evolution of a foreign war, and the worst of 1t Is that many peo- pie, who are deceived In their judg- ment as to his knowledge on account of his gallantry In the Spanish war are encouraged to fan the breeze in their own way until 1t may become whirlwind. When a school boy gets an idea into his head, which excludes all others, his irreverent associates say that he has a bug" Not to be irrev- erent in the case of so important a person as this noisy congressman, we might say that he Is rapidly develop
 ing "a bug
 It Is really a pity that a man who has shown his mettle in such a brave and dauntless manner as an officer 1T the United States navy under disci- pline cannot see the mischief of his present conduct It would have beer better had his request to be placed on the retired list of the navy been grant ed.

 That sounds like more than begin hing toward the accomplishment of the seemingly inevitable. Those who have imaglnations will have little difficulty In plcturing marvellous changes, and that within a few years, It has been unqualihedly admitted abroad that Count Zeppelin has completely outdis- tanced every other attempt at flight and the strong belief holds that he has a still greater surprise up his sleeve which he will spring in the near future, We have been accustomed to read of the coming New zealander, famous be- fore his time, who Is to visit New York to stand amid the ruins of the Brooklyn bridge, there to soliloquize upon the great past of our metropolis, which will then be no more, If that time Is to come and if New York. is to have It's day and then sink into in- significance, the advent of the flying
 
 machine will be large factor in the change The advantages of'fine habor- waters will have given way to the nat ural advantages that make possible good landing stages for the human birds of the air. Already emphasis is being laid upon the necessity of Ger many acquiring a supreme aerial fleet that will counterbalance Great Britain's naval preponderance.

AIRsHIP PASSENGER LINES.

Often we hear of somebody who has succeeded in making gold out of sea- water or diamond out of coal by a chemical process which fails of ex- planation at the critical moment. Yet everybody seems to go on earning his gold and his diamonds by means of brow-sweat and backaches just the same From the beginning of time per petual motion and air naviga ton have been two problems that have competed with each other In making men crazy Most of the so-called successes have been of the Jules Verne variety. But the present year has seen a big lear forward in aeronautlcs, such as would make the immortal Jules green with envy. We have had the "Whitewings gs' and the 'Junebug," skimming and buzz ing through the air with varied degrees of success; the Wright brothers, se- cretly cavorting over the Caroline sand-dunes; and, best of all, the high. ly successful flights of Count Zeppelin in Switzerland,
 Encouraged by the success of the lat. ter, the announcement is just madt that a corporation has been organized in Germany to establish a line of pas senger carrying airships between Der lin, Paris, London, Vienna, St Peters burg, Copenhagen and Stockholm. Ina the undertaking is not the result of m. called-for exuberance on the part o,
