The Vermont watchman. [volume] (Montpelier, Vt.) 1883-1911, 1910-02-03
(Randolph Herald.)


it was announced last week that,
owing to impaired health, and at the
advice of New York specialist, after
consultation there, Hon. DIN Merrill
of Enosburg Falls would not enter the
present governorship canvass as
candidate Mr.. Merrill was told that
he would not be likely to stand the
severe strain of such campaign; at
least, it would be unsafe for him to
engage in it.
This eliminates figure that for
some time has been a dark horse of
forboding proportions to the other
aspirants. DIN Merrill is a shrewd
and forceful politician, wise to the
ways of how to manage campaigns
successfully, gritty and determined.
He had a good deal of encourage
ment and support assured him and
his inclination was strong to make
the fight. 1t is probable that the rea.
son given for his decision is the true
one, and that it covers the whole
case. Mr.. Merrill's friends have been
advised of this condition and the
contingency it might bring about
for quite a period.
What the effect will be is not fully
revealed at present 1t may introduce
another Franklin county man, Hon
Charles w. Gates of Franklin, pres
ent highway commissioner. Mr..
Gates tells everybody his position,
which is that he does not seek the
governorship insistently; in facl
would prefer to see it go elsewhel c,
and to finish out his term where he
is. He has much work ahead that he
desires to close up the present year
and would dislike to drop it, as he
feels he would have to, or be under
the imputation of using his office to
further his candidacy. He would have
been contented to see Mr.. Merrill in
the field, but now that the latter is
out by his own free will Mr.. Gates
may feel that he should recognize
the strong representation made to
him by friends and admirers that he
should sacrifice his personal desires
and become a candidate. That such a
sentiment exists to marked degree
appears from many indications. Mr..
Gates will shortly make definite
announcement, one way or the
other.
That the two active candidates,
Mead and Fleetwood, are neither OF
them satisfactory to a great many
Republicans is perfectly apparent.
With such a feeling, it will be strange
if Gates or some other man does not
! step forth
