About unpIedaea oeIeaates.

The Burlington Free Press and the
Morrisville News and Citizen do not
favor the sending OF unpledged delegates
to the Republican state convention, as
has been advocated by a number OF state
newspapers. including the News.
The former calls it 'all an idle dream,
based on some underlined and hazy feeling
that in some way the delegates the night
before the State convention assemblies
will be able to uncover a man whom the
people themselves with the aid Of the
newspapers and the political workers
have been unable to discover, and that
about his standard the members Of the
party will rally with zeal and enthusi-
asm." The Morrisville contemporary de-
clares that 1.-The idea of sending un-
pledged delegates to the next Republican
state convention is simply absurd"
The News recognizes the advantage Of
sending delegates instructed TO vote for a
desirable candidate, when such one ex-
lists. But up to the time OF this writing
no candidate has been presented, who is
regarded as satisfactory to the people.
For months we have had candidates for
the governcrship, but they have failed to
awaken any enthusiasm, because they are
not found to possess the qualities which
promise a continuance of the work OF the
present and immediate former admins
tration.
Under these peculiar and actually seri-
Gus conditions, a convention made up OF
majority of unpledged delegates might
have the opportunity of doing the state,
as well as the Republican party, grand
service in actually drafting into Office a
superior man as chief executive. 1t is
case, as The News views it, where every
thing may be gained and surely nothing
lost.
The News, however, would welcome
the advent OF a candidate whose fitness
for the important office OF chief executive
was bound to be recognized by the peo-
pie. In the event OF such a man becom-
ing candidate, the argument for I'M
pledged delegates would Of course be
shorn Of its entire strength and could not
stand for a moment. On the other hand.
the entrance Of q candidate who bad the
desired qualifications, should insure the
enthusiastic support Of the Republican
voters % every town.
Until such a candidate appears, II he
. does appear. The News believes the idea
~ aupledged delegstes is the hope Of the
peopie.-N0rthHeld News.

merely seeking the honor as handle to
his name, DR.. Mead stated that he in
tended to propose legislation along GER
tain lines. He wanted to attempt several
things that were out OF the ordinary.
The work Of personally reviewing all bills
was too much for one man to 90 properly

the governor is now expected to do. IL

So we are to have an unofficial cabinet
surrounding the governor, with Senator
J. l.. Lewis, the DOCTORS faithful Boswell,
as prime minister. The senator is to ex-
anime and o. K. or N. @. all measures
that come up to the governor. The serv-
ice that the senator has so freely and
faithfully given during the campaign is to
be continued during the administration
of course "without promise Of pay or re-
ward"

can't motor at all. Make way while the
sun shines.
To the townsman who has never kept 9
team and has no use for one except for
pleasure driving, the motor car comes as
a solution of his qusndary. He can pur-
chase q car and build q garage as eheaply
as be can construct barn, buy buggies,
sleighs and harnesses and get horse that
would suit. He can, under ordinary cir
cumstances, keep bis auto as cheaply as
be could keep a team. His car doesn't
have to be fed three times q day and
looked after by the clock he can tinker
1t when he pleases, il it needs it. The
car doesn't have 10 be exercised daily to
keep its spirits down, in all kinds Of
weather, whatever other calls there may
be on ones time. And in winter, when
there is little pleasure in riding for pleas
ure, your car is costing you nothing for
food and care. Compare the actual cost
OF passengers carried per mile by auto
and by team and you will lind auto trav-
elling much the cheaper.
Motor car troubles Why, yes, what
good thing is there in this world that
hasn't the element Of trouble about it ?
No motorist really enjoys trouble, yet
all are or should be prepared for it. And
when it is over and the car glides along
once more you mostly forget it in the sat
istaetion Of accomplishment.

Seaver Wen Snoken %

According to reliable reports the candi-
dacy OF Lewis NJ Seaver OF Williams
town, for one OF the Orange county sena-
torships is being received with such gem
eral favor throughout the county as to
warrant the expectation OF his nomina-
tion in the coming Republican county
convention. This condition is no sur
prise to those who know Mr.. seaver. He
is a progressive Vermonter, well versed in
the needs of the state and an active, sue
cessful business man. He is one Of the
largest taxpayers in his home town and
as such is naturally especially interested
in town, county and state advancement.
As the representative from Williamstown
in the House in the last general assembly,
Mr.. Seaver was chairman of the commit
tee on claims, a member OF the ways and
means committee, as well as some import
ant special committees. As is we'll
known, he performed efficient service and
acquired an enviable standing among his
colleagues. Such a man deserves promo
ton and as a member of the Senate can
hardly fail to be OF great value in that
body. For this, II fer no other reasons,
the state as we'll as the county needs his
services at this time in the upper house
and it is sincerely hoped that the Repub-
lican voters Of the several towns in
Orange county will see to it that there is
no failure in nominating and electing
Mr.. seayer as one OF its members from
Orange county in the next State senate.

Complaint comes from certain quarters
that bob veal is being marketed, in some
cases contrary to law. The law says that
the flesh OF a calf less than three weeks
old or weighing less than fifty pounds,
dressed, shall not be sold or offered for
sale, or shall not be shipped out of the
state, for food purposes. 1t is said that
many calves under age or weight are
shipped, contrary to this law. The fact
that the meat goes out Of the state, and
seemingly beyond danger of doing our
home people harm should have no bear
ing, first, from good faith to our neigh
boring states, and second, because the
veal comes back to US, most Of it, as
canned chicken" and We eat it right
here in Vermont.

London, May 21.-That it was a won
derful personal triumph for ex-President
Roosevelt was the verdict after the lunch
con King George gave after the funeral OF
his father at Windsor. Col. Roosevelt
was at King Georges personal table, and
afterwards kings, princes and nobility
crowded around Roosevelt, his personali-
ty obliterating for the time all thought OF
King Edwards death.
For poor taste, the above despatch is
about the worst yet. 1t probably has lit
tie basis in fact, and would be as repug-
nant to Mr.. Roosevelt's sense Of propriety
as to the average readers.

saIIshury,s BE FIre loss.

A fire loss OF over eos, 900 was sustained
in Salisbury early last week Wednesday,
in fire which started in the store Of
Judge Frank c. Dyer and destroyed that,
together with the Page feed store and
grist mill, a new two-story house belong
ing TO Mr.. Page, the Rutland railroad de-
pot and freight station and two freight
cars, filled with paper. All the post office
fixtures, mail ana pouches, which we're
in the Dyer store, were destroyed also.
The losses are estimated as follows:
Judge Frank c. Dyer, $4,000.
Mr.. Page, $4,000.
Rutland railroad, $4,000.
Post office loss, not known.
The fire was discovered in the Dyer
store at about O'Clock by William Da-
mond, q clerk in the store, who was
sleeping in the building. He was awak-
ened by The smell OF smoke and he thinks
also that be heard an explosion. As the
post office was located in the store. II is
possible that the place was being robbed
by burglars. The flames spread with
great rapidity, and as there was absolute
ly nothing with which to fight the fire,
the building was soon doomed. From
that the fire jumped to the Page aud the
Rutland railroad property very quickly,
and they we're soon in ruins, together
with most OF their contents,as well as tW o
freight cars, which were placed on a sid

The villagers had to let the fire burn IL
self out. The Dyer store, where the fire
started, was of general merchandise.
Salisbury Is located six miles from Mid

G. F. Leland Of Springfield, candidate
for the lieutenant-governorship nomina-
ton, comes out with square promise in
his home paper that If be receives the
honor he will not ask for or consent to
promotion. This is calculated to help his
canvass, which is handicapped by that Of
another Windsor county aspirant, Doctor
Kidder OF Woodstock. Such a declara-
ton ought not TO be required of or made
BY a candidate for second place. No man
should mortgage his political future in
this way. Nobody can tell what might
transpire to make the Lieutenant governor
the logical choice for promotion. Yet
such a bar would prevent it. We want

Trying to Make Judges Agree.

The mandamus case against Frank NJ.
PlumIey and Horace NJ. Reddeld, assist
ant Judges Of Rutland county, to compel
them to appoint license board for hut-
land was heard in supreme court at Mont
pelier Friday. Judge Redheld was pres
emit and said he would welcome the courts
order. Judge Plumley's attorneys argued
that a mandamus can not be.
The petition Of States Attorney Joseph
c. Jones OF Rutland county alleges that
notwithstanding the provisions OF section
5.IO9 of the public statutes OF the State
OF Vermont, which provides that the as
sistant judges shall appoint a board OF
license commissioners in towns voting IL
cense, within a period OF 16 days from
the time OF the vote, the defendant judges
have failed 10 appoint any board There
fore the petitioner prays for writ of ma
damus, to compel the defendants, within
a time to be set by the court, to appoint q
board Of three license commissioners for
the city OF Rutland.
Judge Redheld answers that the allega.
lions made in the petition are true. He
further states that he has been at all
times willing aud anxious to appoint a
board. but that his associate has not con-
sented TO the names be presented and at
the same time has presented names which
the defendant could not, considering bis
oath OF Office, agree 10. He says that he
has named good men and they have been
refused. He holds that he cannot assent
to names OF parties bound to grant H.
censes 10 particular factions or persons.
While stating these facts the defendant
submits to any order OF the court in the
matter.
Judge Plumley admits part OF the al.
legations. He AYERS be has endeavored tc
come to an agreement but that his asso.
ciate has steadily refused to assent to the
names proposed and has named parties
for whom the defendant could not vote.
For these reasons he has been unabl Il
agree with the correspondent and appoint
a board OF commissioners. The defend
ant states that he is still willing to meet
with the correspondent and endeavor e
agree on names but holds that he cannot
be required to sacrifice his best judgment
TO DO so. He further states that he has
been informed that the petitioner is with
out legal right, authority or jurisdiction
to make an application and asks that th'
petition be dismissed.
