That these returns will show material
change is believed for the statement is
made that instead of 68 delegates in Rut..
land county DR.. Mead is not sure OF
over So. His bureau claims to have IA
delegates in Windham county which is
believed to be two more than corrected
returns will show. There is considerable
Chittenden county. DR.. Mead claims to
have secured 4S delegates from that
county. While he developed unlocked for
strength in Chittenden and Franklin
counties it is not believed that he can
bank on receiving the votes of AZ dele
gates from Chittenden. With the 1893
delegates claimed by DR.. Mead he is still
II short Of a majority. The returns from
Windham county with Athens, Halifax,
Nottingham and Windham missing are
as follows: Brattleboro, u, anti Mead,
favoring Batchelder; Brookline, !, Batch
elder; Dover, 2, Batchelder; Dummers-
ton, 2, Batchelder; Grafton, 2, Mead;
Guilford, uninstructed; Jamaica, 2, anti
Mead; Londonderry, 8, uninstructed, pos
sibly for Mead; Marlboro, 2 unknown;
as follows: Brattleboro, II, anti-Meadi,
Batchelder; Townshend, 3, anti Mead;
Vernon, 2, Batchelder; Wardsboro, 2,
Mead; Westminster, 3, Fleetwood; Will
mington, 3, Batchelder. The several I'M
instructed delegations in this county
make the recapitulation hardly Of real
value in making up final figures for the
state. Though the Mead forces claim IA
delegates in this county the anti. Mead
men say that the Rutland man will not
receive over II. In several instances
anti-Mead delegations are reported as
favoring Batchelder while in other cases
uninstructed delegates are not reported
as to preferences.

THE END NOT YET.

The Enosburg Standard under an edito-
rial caption, Last Days OF the Gam
paign," prcfaces a long editorial WITH
the following paragraph:
The campaign for the goyernorship Il
nearing It's close. Before the next issue
~ the Standard the cancuscs VIII have
been held and the republicans OF Yer
mont will have registered their verdict
There is a fnality about our upstate
contemporary's view Of the situation that
really ought not to permit Of taking ex-
ceptions 10 its opening statement. How
ever. the Reformer takes different view
of the matter. The caueuses have been
held and all sorts Of guesses have been
made as TO how the delegates elected
will stand in the convention. This ac-
tion can hardly be termed verdict. Isn't
Il rather a summing up Of the case with
the jury to be out until june 30!
The Fair Haven Era takes practically
the same view Of the situation as does
the Enosburg Standard and says under
the headline of "a Fight to the Finish:
The campaign for the govefnorship is
nearing its end. The caucuses III the
different towns of Vermont next week
will practically settle the question as to
who is to command the ship Of state for
the coming two years.
The Era then proceeds to elucidate the
strong points of the Mead candidacy. If
the caucuses are supposed to have settled
the goyernorship where does the fight
10 a finish" come ing The Era is correct
in saying that it is to be fight to
finish and the finish is quite likely to be
of the sort that brings the audience to
its feet as the contestants come to the
tape. The Fair Haven contemporary says
that ostensibly there are four candidates
in the field for the governoship, but
practically there have been but two.
Mead and Fleetwood are the candidates
that the Era comedies to be in the run
ming. In this part Of the state we are
told that James X. Batchelder of Airing
ton is a candidate and from actions OF
well-known political workers who have
always fought with the machine forces
it looks as though Mr.. Batchelder's
friends were not asleep. The Era
is correct in saying that it is to
be fight to finish The finish did not
come Tuesday DESPITE the assertions Of
the friends of Mead, Fleetwood and
Batchelder. The demand for unpledged
delegates made during the last month has
resulted in electing many men whose
choice of candidates will not be known
until the convention meets in Montpelier.
Make it fight to finish.

It Is Significant.
montpelier Journal. J

''The refusal of Hon. Joseph A. De-
Boer to head Mead delegation from
this city to the republican state conven-
ton, and his willingness to head an un-
pledged delegation that will not support
the Mead candidacy, is an event of deep
significance to the people of this city.
Mr. De-Boer has been selected by the
state committee as the presiding officer of
the convention. The people of Montpelier
are proud of the fact and believe the
choice to be an ideal one. 1t is for the
republican voters of this city to say
whether he shall have the opportunity to
occupy that honorable position or whether
he shall have no seat in that body, and
the honor shall go to another. The cleo
ton of Mead delegates here means that
Montpelier prefers to honor the Rutland
candidate rather than its own distin-
guished citizen. Which man has done and
can do the most for Montpelier? Which
will Montpelier choose?"
The Brattleboro reformer. (Brattleboro, Vt.) 1907-1912, 1910-06-17

If Candidate Mead had answered Candi-
date Hapgood's query about the publca-
ton of campaign expenses by quoting the
statute covering the use of money in
political campaigns and simply added
amen he would have less anxious mo-
ments from now until the 30th of June.
Here is the way the law reads.
No person shall, in order to aid or
promote his own nomination or the
nomination of another person, as
candidate for public Office. by eau
Gus, convention or nomination paper,

The opportunity has arrived Tor the
Vermont delegation in congress to act
and act quickly in the interests OF not
only a large number of its constituents
but in the interest of every printing
establishment in the United States.
Messrs. Plumley and Foster need not be
told that the Tou Velle bill before
congress, to stop the free-printed stamped
envelop abuse, is simply a demand upon
the part of the printing fraternity OF
this country for square deal. Both
Plumley and Foster understand the
situation. They are both sufficiently
intelligent to know that it is impossible
for the printing establishments OF this
country to compete with the government
in printing envelopes. Both Of Vermont
congressman know that this subsidizlng
of favored customers by the government
ia unfair to not only the printing estab-
lishments of the country but to the men
who earn their bread and butter in such
establishments This bill, which has
been unanimously reported favorably by
the House postoffice committee, cannot
be brought to vote except under
suspension Of the rules. Let both OF
Vermont's congressman demand that the
rules be suspended and that the bill be
put upon its passage. Every printer in
Vermont is interested. Each year that
the government engages in the business
of competing with the printers OF this
country half million jobs 60 into the
hands of these favored customers. Mr.
Plumley and Mr.. Foster, remember that
practically every newspaper publisher II
Vermont operates commercial printing
office and that practically every one o.
these establishments loses trade each
year that it is rightfully entitled to. Ii
it is initiative that is lacking to bring
this bill up for vote, let it be Vernon
tiers that will show the country that they
stand for square deal. Now is the
time to act.
