So far there is only one candidate who
steps into the limelight a within Bsrkis.
His name is Fred arick q. Fleetwood and
he lives in Morrisvlle. He is a good
fellow, a good lawyer, able, well edu-
Gated, a student Of current state problems,
a young man of excellent character aud
standing. He has held numerous county
and town offices and was secretary OF
state for four years. His platform sp-
pears in smother column in this issue.
He says he viii not spend a penny on
heelers aud political suckers. This is
refreshing and will appeal to all who are
disguised swith any candidate whose chief
claim to distinction is the size OF his
barrel. Fleetwood proposes to run on
his record as a citizen, and to discuss live
state questions in as many communities
~ be can. II he starts right out and
tours the state as Churchill did in New
Hampshire a few years ago aud shows be
has .the stuH'i in him he may make

v hich il connects at White River juno
ton. A good joke at the expense of the
Central Vermont railroad always "goes"
in Vermont, but ii long since ceased TO
be well founded; yet some people like the
editorial writer of the Rutland News
persist in perpetrating it on the public
and occasionally the item is copied BY
journals in other states and Is given
credence by a public which knows
nothing OF the real conditions, as in this
instance.
Does the contemporary ever stop to
consider how this incorrect statemen mt
harms the state indirectly? II the states
railroads are set forth as incompetent, as
broken down, as incapable of giving de-
cent service, the people in other sections
will be far less likely to come into the
state either on business or pleasure, for
no 'one wants to be subjected to poor
railroad service when he can do as well
perhaps in some other section, and at the
same time travel satisfactorily. 1t hurts
our summer visitor business immeasur'
ably to hold up our railroads to rIdicule
it hurts our business interests; it doesn't
speak well for our own position in the
progress of the country. All this, too
when there is little or no basis for such
Jest or serious assertion. The Contra
Vermont railroad is still not giving Us :
perfect service land we know OF no rail
road that is, but the service is far bette
than il has been for several years. Thu
efforts to improve it should be met will
something besides a stale joke. Barr

The Rutland Herald, in friendly way,
has pointed out the only possible objec-
ton to DIR. F. L. Kidder in his recently
announced political ambition. The I'M
pleasant truth was spoken in so gentle a
manner that no one could take offence. As
a presiding officer over the Senate and
Joint assembly, the requirement is for a
quick and ready tongue, with no impedi
ment of speech. There are enough per.
pIexities to the position without a natural
handicap.

How II summed un.

OF course, different listeners to the
political gossip at the Vermont Fish and
Game League midsummer outing yester-
day will vary somewhat in their estimate
OF the trend of public opinion as repre-
scented there. But it would not be sur
prising if the governorship situation
might resolve itself into the field against
Lieut.-Gov. John A. Mead OF Rutland.
In the meantime, with this in view as q
possibility, there appeared to be a strong
disposition to favor either Charles w.
Gates of Franklin or Frederick q. Fleet
wood OF Morrisville, as the man to lead
the field. There was very marked show
ing of popular favor for Gates yesterday
and Fleetwood had strong hackers as
well. st. Albans Messenger.
