THE VERMONT STRAW.

In the face of the Vermont election
1ir. Bryan will have to console him
self with Hamlet's insincere saw,
We defy augurY, if he would face
the Ides Of November with equanim-
dty.
The premature election in the that
state has in the past proved too
good straw to point the blowing of
the political wind that it may be
disTegarded now 1t foretold the
Democratic victories of 1884 and 1892.
the impending Roosevelt landslide
of 1904 and fairly indicated the scope
of the intervening Republican
victories.
The predictions of former President
Cleveland's posthumous letter for the
national contest are borne out by the
Vermont election. The Republican
vote while large, shows a falling off
from that of the last election, when
it reached an abnormal figure, while
that of the Democrats falls even be-
low that recorded in that fatal year
The new Independence party, on the
other hand, polled surprisingly large
and unexpected vote which must have
cut into the Demcratic and Socialistic
ranks.
This party, as Mr. Cleveland pre-
dicted, may be expected to play a not
unimportant part in the general cleo
ton in that it will seriously deplete
the Democratic ranks-the purpose,
HU doubt, for which it was called into
being by Mr.. Hearst Milwaukee
Free Press.

The returns show that in the Mil
waukee election precints where the
social democrats are strongest, Mr..
McGovern polled a heavy vote for
the senatorial nomination Had the
vote been very close 1t is claimed that
throughout the state there were
enough socialist and democrat votes
cast for republican candidates whom
the men casting them would not
support at the poll. to prevent the
republicans of the state from nomin at
ing the men they prefer on the re
publican ticket There is a weak
ness in any primary system that
permits voters of one party to assist in
choosing the nominees upon the
ticket of another party which they
do not belong to nor believe in.

In speaking of Mr.. Bryan's new
plan to have the government issue a
federal license to the trusts, the demo
cratic New York Times says The
weakness of Mr.. Bryan's trust policy
lies in the vague and visionary char
acter of his plan. and in the
emptiness of its PROMISE Persons
far exceeding him in wisdom and
sharing radical views have for years
sought by the formulation of policies
and in the drawing Of bills to devise
curbs for monopoly and remedies for
the trust evils. They have been only
moderately successful. He produces
from his own unaided mind a plan of
universal scope and of guaranteed
efficiency To say that he has con-
fidence in the virtue of his nostrum,
in other words. to say that he be
lieves what he said at Indianapolis,
would impugn his intelligence. !"

It's a cheerful custom some pub
fishers have of appropriating anything
that looks good to them in another
fellows paper and printing it without
credit in their own papers. A half
column editorial which was original
ly written by the editor of the Herald
and published in this paper two
weeks ago. appeared last week as an
original editorial in Prairie du
Chen paper and another which was
written originally by the Herald
three or four weeks ago, appeared as
an original editorial in the Necedah
last week. But we don't
care. 1t shows discriminating taste
on the part of the cribbers. at least.

Murphy, the democratic
to succeed himself. defeated
a strong man j. w. Babcock, two
years ago by the aid of republican
votes, but conditions were quite
different at that time, the republican
party in the district being sadly dis
rupted by fractional differences. This
year it is likely to stand closely
united. Mr.. Kopp, in his primary
canvass surprised even bis best friends
by the energy and ability he has
manifested as a campaigner and he
will go after success at the polls in
November in a manner that presages
brilliant victory. He is a young
man. a good lawyer, with a most
pleasing and engaging personality and
has not been prominently identified
with either of the warning factions
of his party in the past. He has
been in favor of progressive legisla
tion and if elected Will be the con-
gresham of all the people, regard
less of political differences. Grant
county now has an opportunity to Sc
cure a republican congressman as it
never had it before and Mr.. Kopp
should have the loyal support of
every republican voter in the county.

Minneapolis Journal, Rep: One
fact may be cited that clinches the
matter. William H. Taft declared
for tariff revision and tariff reduction
when Roosevelt had said nothing on
the subject. and at time when, with
stand patters in the control of con-
gress and threatening political death
to any one who dared mention the
tariff. it took genuine courage to do
so. Taft did it, and he never went
back on that personal platform. He
wrote it into the platform of Ohio, and
be translated it into the platform at
Chicago.

Mr.. Bryan's list of millionaire
supporters includes Clark, of Montana,

vociferous demands for publicity be-
