reputation as trial attorney. An at
torney general is often up against the
strongest criminal lawyers and unless
he is able to hold his own with the best
Of them he must prove more or less u
failure. Locality should have no con-
sideration. The demand should be i'm
perative among the voters for the lawyer
most fully meeting the requirements
whether he appears to live on the east
side, or on the west side, or on a
mountain, or in a ravine. The best man
is wanted and wanted badly for this
place"
All of which will find cordial support
from all people of Vermont who wish for
fair, capable and prompt administration
of the duties which fall to the occupant
of the office of attorney general. Above
all things, the state does not want a
narrow minded, picayunish limb O. the
law, who hasn't adequate conception Of
the sacredness OF his duty, nor one who
will prostitute the high office TO the
benefit of private individuals or inter
ests. The moral fiber of the candidate
is one of the first qualifications to be
examined into. Personal ambitions of
prospective aspirants for the office must
be. subordinated to the main purpose OF
doing the state the best service in
really important office. If the truth
were told, it would probably be stated
without fear of successful contradiction
that the office of attorney general calls
for greater intellectual ability, more
moral stamina, better understanding OF
men and events, than the office Of gov
ernor itself Such being the case, we
desire to emphasize the important duty
of the voters to select the right man as
successor to Attorney General Sargent.
Here Is a chance to exercise that some
what outworn proposal of the office
seeking the man.

The managers of the Dog River Valley
Fair association, which each year gives
ereditable exhibition at Mortified, are
to be congratulated on the spirit with
which they have taken up the work for
l9l2, in spite of the discouragements of
1911, largely due to unfortunate weather
conditions. Their efforts for success
full exhibition next fall merit co-opera-
ton on the part of the general public,
as we'll as by the stockholders of the
association, for, in addition to giving
the public an interesting program for
diversion, the fair tends to promote the
agricultural interests of the particular
section in which the exhibition is held.
Therefore, let all in this vicinity lend
encouragement and material assistance
to this Washington county fair, so that
the 1912 exhibition may meet the pres.
ent expectations of the managers.

In tones designed
To shake the skies;
And let us cheer
Each man who tries
To sprain your ear.
Let wild bells peal
To shake our nerve
While every wheel
Shrieks round the curve
A motor horn
We must invent
With note forlorn
And weird intent.
Long after dark
Let cats meow
And CANNES bark
To help the row,
While folks around
Are yelling "scat!"
Let ragtime sound,
In every fat.

And let Ter rum

Perhaps those prominent farmers
about Middlebury didn't know it was
frankly dishonest to mix water with their
milk product-and again perhaps they
were merely patterning after those illus
trious examples in commercial life who
water their stock. However, it would
be best for the farmers to water their
stock before the milking, rather than
after.
