VERMONT CONSIDERED
GOOD BAROMETER OF
POLITICAL SENTIMENT
Special to The Bulletin.

New York, Sept. 3.--In 1892 Will
liam G. Whitney looked up from .
pile of kilograms and in reply IL
the question as to the outlook 70;
Democratic victory. said:
wait until after the good peoplf
ct Vermont register their votes or
the first Monday in September, anG
| think Wn make an accurate CUES
as to who will be the next prcsi,
dent
Mr.. whitney turned to his WORT
as il he had dismissed the subject
fer good,
but why wait for the first Mon
day in September" his caller in
sisted.
For the simple reason that Ver
ront is n perfect political barome
ter" replied Mr., Whitney.
And it has been so for a quarter
of century. When you find Yer
mont giving majority of $4,000 or
over for the Republicans in their
September election, then you can
expect the Republicans to carry the
country in November"
In 1884 the Democrats at the
September election lost the state by
only 22.704 and in November the
Democrats swept the country.
In 1892 the Democrats reduced
the Republican majority in Vermont
in the September election by 1902
aud again swept the country at the
Presidential election in November.
In 1900 the Republicans carried
the state in September by 30.S64 and
mckinley was elected in November.
In 1904 the Republicans carried
the state by 81, 500 in September
end Roosevelt was elected In Novem-
Der.
in 1908 the Republicans carried
the state in September by 1864
and Taft was elected in November.
And SO Vermont's history since
1886 has been guidepost for the
political leaders and what they
might expect in the November presi-
Dental election. If the Republican
majority eexcceds $4,000 in Vermont
n September, they carry the presi-
aency, But if the Democrats cut the
majority down to less than $4,000

Students OF political affairs recall
the famous speech of Henry w

Woodrow Wilson supporters are
strenuously criticising the action OF
the Democratic county committee In
giving the city committee power TO

where vacancies occur. The Wilson
men fear the overriding OF public
sentiment for their candidate. They
quote City Chairman John Nagel as

RAVENNA, o., April l5.-William
Jennings Bryan started today from
Ravenna on a two-day swing through
Ohio, urging Democratic voters tc
vote against Gov Harmon and to sup
port Gov. Wilson in the presidential
primaries, May 81.
In his Ravenna speech, Bryan
cahrged Gov. Harmon with being
Waists candidate tor the presi-
dency. In closing. he ,old his audi
ence that Gov. Wilson is progress
siye.
After discussing the Democratic
party's opportunity in his Ravenna
speech, Bryan said concerning the
Ohio situation:
The issue this year is exactly the
same as IL was in 1896, namely the
people versus Wall-st The money
question was merely an incident OF
the campaign OF '96, just as the tariff
question is merely an incident OF the
present campaign.
THE real question is whether the
government is TO be run by the peo-
ple. in the interest OF the people, or
BY Wall-st. in the interest of Wall-st.

Taft's friendship TO Lorimer Roose-
Welt himself made a whirlwind, spe-
cial train canvas OF the state. closing
the evening before the primary and
Eorimer was his text.
The Taft forces fought doggedly.
They matched the Roosevelt people
dollar for dollar and trained army
a federal employees worked for TAFT
against the Roosevelt cohorts which
we're organized down TO the smallest
scnool district.
On primary day the polling places
swarmed with workers and carriages
and automobiles secured cities, towns
and rural districts for votes In this
way an enormous vote was brought
out. and II Is estimated that over 4
million dollars was spent during the
day.
For Taft there had been regiment
OF speakers during the campaign
senators. cabinet members and ora
tors from afar Besides Roosevelt
himself the colonel's side had been
argued by spellbinders in every ham
let and on every corner governors
and congressman took part
Senator I.aFollette made no cam
paign. He had no money for halls o.
speakers. so there were no meetings
lie had definitely promised 10 spend
the week in Nebraska and so he could
not speak here himself. He had no
organization and the few dollars that
could be spared were used for stamps
10 send out the senator's statement %
the voters.
The newspapers gave no publicity
to the LaFollette end OF the campaign
none at all.
In the midst of the fight Jones. the
LaFollette candidate for governor,
Topped TO Roosevelt, seeking to get
on the band wagon. The Roosevelt
people welcomed his desertion, but
didn't vote for him and Jones got only
half as many votes as l.aFollette.
With no organization. no funds, no
automobiles, no speakers, no alliance
withFlocal candidates, no precinct
workers and no newspaper support
I.aFollette got one vote out of every
10 cast by Republicans, and Roose-
welt simply overwhelmed Taft on the
Lorimer issue. The only district in
the state that Taft carried was Lori
mer's own.
Congressman Mckinley, Taft's map-
ager. came on from Washington u

campaign He lost his own precinct,
ward, town. county and state and II
he is delegate TO the Chicago con-
vention he will have to vote for T. r.
Uncle Joe Cannon's district did like

to be a delegate or else help draft
the colonel in the convention.
The defeat or Wilson by Clark on
the Democratic side was the working
out OF the Harmon underwood
Hearst-Clark combine. All the other
candidates with the Hearst newspa-
pers and the Democratic end OF the
Lorlmer bipartisan Jackpot element
united to beat Wilson-and did. Wo-
mems suffrage was lost in the scram-
bic OF the 5000 candidates.
In all about 100000 votes were cast
