SAYS VERMONT Will GO FOR
WILSON.

] Il. Burke. former mayor OF Bur
lington, and one OF the democratic
leaders in the Green Mountain state
who was at democratic headquarters
yesterday, says;
Il do not want anybody to put ME
down as rainbow chaser" or to be
making big claims about what the deni-
ocrats will do in Vermont in Noven.
ber 1t has been so many years since
Vermont gave democratic majority
or plurality, that | am making no pre-
dictions, but here are some figures that
may interest you:
In the state election, the republi-
can candidate for governor received
about 26,50O votes, the democratic can.
dldate received about 20,500 votes, and
the Third Term candidate received n
little over 15,500, In the election last
spring for delegates to the republican
nation convention. Roosevelt carried
the I'd congressional district. 1t is
generally believed in Vermont that
the Roosevelt electors will receive
more votes than the Roosevelt candi-
date for governor received. Some peo-
|ple think that the Roosevelt electors
will receive 5000 more votes than
were cast for Metzger, the Third Term
candidate. If so, this will give him
something like $4,000 votes for presi-
dent, and would take off that many
from Taft In addition it is well known
that many republicans will vote for
Wilson, and the republican votes cast
for Wilson will also come off the Taft
vote. If these speculations are cor
rect Taft's vote will be brought down
from 26,600 TO about 100000 The dem
ocratic vote for governor was 20,500.
II they get even 900 republican votes
more than they got in September, and
it is a toss-up as to who will get the
electoral vote in Vermont The state
cast in September about $4,000 votes.
1t will probably cast about the same in
November, and 1t now looks as If every
one OF the parties will get in the neigh
borhood Of 10000 votes, and this rea-
sonable calculation will put Vermont
in the doubtful list, and the democrats
believe that Wilson will gain so much
strength between now and election
THAT he has chance of carrying the
electoral vote of Vermont. When you
consider that never before in the life
of any man now living have Vermont
democrats even looked to a chance for
victory, the above calculation warrants
democrats in their confidence in the
election of Wilson"

Bangor now has "hen law" The
city government has enacted a new
ordinance which prohibits hens from
running at large within a mile and

was apparently joke when it was

WHAT sPREckLEs' MOVEMENT
4 FOR WILSON INDICATES.


New York, Sept 25.--Much interest
has been caused by the opening In
New York City OF the Eastern head
quarters of the Wilson National Pro
gressive Republican League, and no
little significance attaches to this
movement.
The movement is headed by Ru-
dolph Spreckels of California, one OF
the best known, most influential aud
Independent of progressive republi-
cans. He is a man who is a progress
sive because he believes he can thus
best serve his country. Mr. Spreckels
is not a professional politician He
has never sought to get anything out
of politics for himself
He is an independent patriot-inde.
pendent in his views and his actions
as well as in his private fortune, who
is devoting much Of his time, his
means and his indomitable energy TO
the perpetuation of those principles
he believes to be right and to secure
the election of those men whom he
considers best fitted to serve the peo.
pie righteously
One of the leading features of the
present presidential campaign has
been the independence of thought and
action which has been developed in
the ranks of the old parties. The
American people are thinking and act
ing more and more for themselves.
Scores of truly progressive republicans
are announced supporters OF Wilson
and Marshall, the democratic nomi-
nees for president and vice president,
respectively, and Of the principles they
represent.
These republicans oppose the reac-
tionary OF the Taft type and are with
out faith in the Roosevelt cause. The
purpose Of the movement headed by
Mr.. Spreckels and his associates is to
crystalline this widespread sentiment
in the old time republican ranks, they
believing that they en- nthus best serve
the interests of all the people. ire
spective of party lines, and in so do
ing best serve the interests of the
whole nation
The republican league movement is
very significant of the real awakening
of the American people

other young, newly fedged oculists
and himself we're chatting in their
quarters in the hospital when the con-
versation turned, as was natural in
young men, upon the beauty OF differ
ent colors OF eyes. One championed
the superior brilliancy and sparkle OF
the blue eye, another the depth and
fire OF the brown, while the third was
all for the clear, cool light OF the
hazel After they had exhausted their
eloquence, with the usual effect OF con-
frming themselves IL their original
opinions, the fourth young sawbones
suddenly broke in:

eyes. or your brown eyes, or your gray
eyes! Just give me sore eyes and

The boy was badly injured. but was

and cursed him as they fed.
Davis had just counted the cash he
took in during the day and put the
currency in an inside pocket.
The two robbers evidently had
watched him from the street. They
entered just as he started to close the
cash drawer and inquired the price OF
a far of Jam. Davis turned toward a
shelf, when one Of the men struck him
a heavy blow on the back OF the head
with club. Davis fell to the floor un-

One OF the men reached over the

seven dollars in small change from the
