lastly those who think it is not right
to question mans qualifications
after he has received the republican
nomination and that it will amount to
nothing if any one does question it.
THE CALIFORNIAN cannot fully
agree with the first class because it
believes that DR.. Mead spent
money in securing the nomination for
governor that he does not dare to let
the public know about that his norni-
nation is generally accepted as
victory for money in politics, al
though it was a pretty close one. 1t
does not believe it is to the credit
of Vermont to have it's politics con-
trolled either before or after party
conventions by money.
We more nearly agree with the
second class. While we believe that
as a rule a man or paper is more use
full to society if he acts within a party
than he is otherwise, there are times
when any political organization
should be taught that it must keep
within certain bounds in order to re-
tain support THE CALIFORNIAN be-
can party that it cannot allow a man
to capture it's endorsement in the
preliminary fight by questionable
means and receive a full party vote
in the general election. So long as
man feels his methods will not be
questioned after the nomination is
made he will not be careful about the
methods he follows to get the nomina
ton AS to the degree of success an
Independent spirit will have we be-
lieve that there are times when
people must stand for certain princi-
pies whether they are to win at once
or not and that. this is one of the
times.
The last class who assume that the
matter is all settled and that protests
at this time only weaken the man
making them, it seems to us, are
really a weakness rather than a
strength to their party. They assume
that nothing but the party dictum
must be given any attention in the
campaign At the present time it
means that the intelligent voters of
the state must go to the ballot box
and elect a man to the head of the
state government who is generally be-
lieved to have practically bought the
nomination. They must by their vote
say they believe in letting man have
whatever political position he has
paid for no matter whether they be-
lieVe it is right or not. They are asked
to allow the political reputation of the
state to go for a price because it is
not right to question. the results of a
republican convention. How long will
we take any pride in our state or its
officials if we follow that policy? The
any question, under these conditions
would be a reproach and detriment
to the party at large throughout the
country. To follow the party blindly
into wrong paths simply because a
slight majority wanted it to go there
will not build up strong political
parties or aid the cause of good
citizenship. Everyone believes that
there was more money used in the
contest for the republican nomir alton
than is good for either the party or
the state and this paper persists in an
appeal to go to the polls and ad-
minister such rebuke to this practice
that office seakers of the future viii!
Shun it.

General regret will be felt through
out the state that J. A. DeBoer of
Montpelier Will not be a candidate for
representative from Montpelier this
fall owing to the pressure of business
duties. 1t had been generally con-
coded that if he was elected a member
of the house he would be chosen
speaker and people were well pleased
at the prospect. H. S. Peck of Bur
lington and Warren r. Austin are
now seeking election to the legislature

The Right to Independent Thinking

The Rutland News is trying to snap
the party whip in the interests of the
candidacy of its citizen, John A. Mead,
declaring that the talk of detection
comes from few soreheads'' and a
few poor losers.'' But, instead of
gathering them in, such talk will be
calculated to ALLEVIATE still further

and action who are affiliated with the

Vermont Politics.

The question is, how much of
sentiment in the republican party
of Vermont the ST. Johnsbury Gale
DOMAIN represents when it refuses
to support the nomination of DR.. John
A Mead for the governorship. That
there is some disaffection in the ranks
is plain enough. That there are some
republicans that will not vote for the

Wade Stuckey of Tulsa, Okla, who

Mr.. Stuckey graduated from the
Upton high school in 1900. He was
poor boy and had worked his way
through school. Miss Georgia ad
mired his energy. To show that she
did she gathered large bouquet of
roses of her own raising and sent
them to him.
In the years that passed he never
forgot the little girl who gave him
flowers. Last year while she was
visiting friends in Oklahoma they
met again. The friendship grew
into love and resulted in the wed

HOW THEY KISS WHEN
THEY LAND IN AMERICA

lutes, it makes one think, generally,
of the touching of two icicles.
Then there is the wifely kiss;
you all know that, with it's varieties
of jealousy and trust; and the kiss
of clippers, who have stolen across
and salute each other as they set
foot on free American sofia sort
of congratulation that they are at
last safe-nOt knowing that the po-
lice of Hoboken and the customs
inspectors and immigration authori-
ties have a description of them and
are only waiting for this signal to
grab them.
And last. there is the holy kiss
of the good boy who has come here,
made money enough to send for his
old mother. and greets her as she
comes feebly down the gangplank
with the light of wonder and hope
in her old eyes, he having come
thousand miles, or two thousand
miles, across country to guide her
to the new home he has made for
her"
