GOD HELP VERMONT"
Characteristic Letter From Mr.. Hap
good 70 the Rutland Herald

Characteristic Letter From Mr. Hap
good TO the Rutland Herald
Editor OF the Rutland Herald:--As
Mr.. Batchelder has given free con-
sent to the adoption OF the Australian
form of ballot for the coming state
convention l sincerely trust that you
will urge, and, if necessary demand,
that the candidate which you, In a
measure, represent, WILL also, ex-
press his approval of the proposed
measure, believe that it would much
inure, not only to the honor and repu-
tatlon of the candidates consenting,
but also, to the honor and reputation
of the state at large. Besides, with
DR.. Mead's consent It would preclude
any contest in the convention upon
the matter.
Is DR. Mead willing to deliberately
continue to take the position, not only
of refusing to accept the proposition
of filing an account Of his expenses,
sworn TO or unsworn to. but also, Of
Withholding consent to the use of the
Australian form of ballot in the con-
vention, with or without booths? And
this, too, in the face Of the fact that
the other four candidates approve It.?
AS to personal support for myself it
is entirely secondary as | am working
for principle And ] prefer to leave
it to the good sense Of the delegates
at the time Of the convention, after
they have become fully informed Of
the situation should prefer, as sup
porters, representative citizens per-
fectiy free to act as they thought
best at the time they cast their bal
lots. And the kind of ballot that will
best encourage that way of voting Is
the kind of ballots we want, and you
will find that, as rule. it is the
"heelers" and wire pullers" who will
oppose 1t, because they are afraid
that all of their secret work and in
fuence under its operation will only
count against them.
If our state is to be governed by
influences which deliberately oppose
the publicity of campaign expenses
and the use of form Of ballot that
will give perfect freedom to the vo
ter, then God help the state Of Yer
mont.
