THEY WEREN'T ELECTED
BECAUSE BACHELORS
Women Claim They Caused the Defeat
Of rockingham and Welsh on
Domestic Issue.

Boston, Nov. l3.-If Lieutenant-Goy-
ernor Louis A. rockingham, Republi-
can candidate for governor, and David
/. Walsh, Democratic candidate for lieu
tenant governor, both Of whom were de-
feated in last Tuesdays election, had
been married men they would have been
successful, according to the Woman's
Homestead association, which met Sat
urday to celebrate the defeat of the
bachelor candidates.
The association. OF which Charlotte
Smith is president and Susan f. Stevens
secretary, fought against rockingham
and Walsh regardless of political issues,
and solely on the grounds that neither
was a benedict. 1t claims the credit
for the result.
I'VE fought the battle on one issue,
that bachelors should not be elected to
municipal state OF federal office, and
we have won, reads a letter the asso-
citation sent rockingham. Therefore,
take notice You never can be elected
governor of Massachusetts, until you be-
come a benedict, notwithstanding your
personal popularity. Therefore do not
neglect TO take out your license as soon
as possible If you are aspiring for fur
Their political honors at the hands of
the people"
To Walsh the association addressed
the following:
I'VE recognize You as a handsome,
bright, clean-cut, up-to-date, brainy
young man, whose only fault is you are
q bachelor and was not an eligible cam
didate for such high office. Therefore,

The Proposed New Railroad.

There is no denying the fact, we are
living in an age OF opportunity, and all
realize that lost chances are not as a
rule redeemable. This fact so stimulat-
ed the local board Of trade that when
the call came for local business men to
show q real live interest in the proposed
North Troy to Waterbury railroad they
were on hand, and their attendance last
Monday at the Morrisville meeting-40
in numher-was sufficient proof that
this section Of the state was willing TO
give loyal support, both in time and
influence, to bring about a connection
with iron rails which would make our
northern neighbors seem little nearer
to the central part of Vermont.
The Morrisville meeting WAS an en-
thusiastic one. Every town that the
proposed railroad will pass through was
represented, and the men present were
all hustlers and were from nearly every
vocation in life--the man who holds the
pillow, the minister, the doctor, the law.

fed with large corporation interests. All
showed a willingness to work as one
man. 1t was the best exhibition OF
team work that it has been the writ

The whole atmosphere of the project
went to show that men of broad bus
mess experience were behind the enter
prise. 1t will be the purpose of the
men who are selected to interest a
railroad corporation to demonstrate that
it is practical one and will yield a

and capital are the connecting links in
all railroad enterprises, and il it can
be proven that enough of the former
can be secured, a railroad corporation
