RoosEvELT's CANDIDACY.

1t is a mistake-Roosevelt's candidacy.
1t is a mistake against Roosevelt him
self, against President Taft, against the
Republican party, against the country.
Roosevelt wants to be President again
that is the whole story. 1t is a
candidacy which has ambition as its
basis, it's superstructure and its whole
shooting match"
Roosevelts place in history was secure
up to last Saturday There is no great
crisis to lead him into the breach at this
time. We believe that he is due to fall
outside the breastworks, battered and
SCARED, and that he will "never look the
same" again. No man in the history of
our country was ever given three terms
in the presidential chair, and no man
should be thus honored except possibly
in crisis like a war where there was
great unfinished work to be completed.
What about the square DEAL toward
Taft, the man who was formerly Roose-
Velt's most trusted lieutenant, who was
given the most unqualified endorsement
by Roosevelt as the latter's successor,
and who has filled the exalted Office with
dignity, with ability, and with an eye
single to the country's greatest good?
Roosevelt's candidacy will tend to
disrupt rather than unity the Republican
party, and it will imperil the chances of
election of the nominee of the Republican
national convention, whoever he may be.
1t will breed factional disturbance and
bitterness, 1t will add to the spirit of
uncertainty and unrest, 1t will be a bad
thing for the country at large.
We believe President Taft is entitled to
confidence and support on the record he
has made. We hope the next Republican
national convention will give Taft the
endorsement that he deserves and that
Roosevelts ambition will be knocked into
a cooked hat We hope Taft will be re-
nominated and re elected.

VOTE mo" NEXT TUESDAY.

Our perennial problem, license or no.
license, will come up for consideration
again next Tuesday. Last year, when a
vigorous campaign was waged, a no
license majority of 343 was rolled up, the
largest ever recorded under the local OPP
ton law. The majority ought not to be
ency No man should say to himself "the
town is safely no-license and my one vote
wont be needed" Every vote will count,
not only this year but for future years,
in keeping the liquor interests discon-
certed and disorganized and in showing
that the town is committed strongly to a
policy of sobriety, good order, and clean
social and moral conditions.
The question Is one where every think
ing man should have convictions and the
only way he can record them and make
them count is through his ballot
The old argument that the license fees
help pay our taxes which is heard in
many states, is not applicable in Ver-
mont, as the license money here goes
into the state treasury and the local
community which votes license gets no
offsets to meet increased expense. What
it does get is more drunkenness, more
poverty, more degrade ton, more crime,
more expense for police, for courts and
for aid to destitute poor. Then there is
always the personal side, the physical
damage to and the financial drain upon
the week brothers who succumb to the
tempta ton of the saloon.
People who remember the deplorable
conditions in Brattleboro under two years
of license, and who contrast them with
the clean conditions which have pre-
vailed the last two years, should need
no further argument as to the way they
should vote.
Vote early next Tuesday. Vote mo-.

NO THIRD TERM,

We premise that the judgment Of a
great majority of Republican voters will
be that the candidacy of Col. Roosevelt
is uncalled for and unjustifiable. The
first objection is that the declared policy
of our government is opposed to a third
presidential term. George Washington
rejected that idea. This policy was
pursued without question down to
Grants time, when in consideration Of
his great service to the country his
friends proposed a third term for him,
but the convention repudiated the
proposal and adhered to the established
rule. The friends of Roosevelt contend
that the main objection to a third term
does not now exist; that four years will
have elapsed from the termination of his
second term to his entry upon a third. IL
elected. But this contention is specious
The men who constituted Roosevet's
army of office holders and now demand
his return to the White House would
then rally around him, and the danger of
his cementing himself in office even for
fourth term would be imminent The
reasons against any president holding a
third term so impressed Col. Roosevelt
in 1904 that under no circumstances
would he again be a candidate
For his party to give third term to
Roosevelt and deny a second term to
President Taft after the excellent ad-
ministration he is giving the country
would be unjustifable treatment of one
of the most honest and able Presidents
who has held that office.
What has long been surmised is now
| apparent, that ever since his return from
| his hunting tour Roosevelt has both
| covertly and openly sought to prejudice
| the people against the President and
make his nomination difficult if not i'm
possible. 1t is plain now that, while the
ex-President has repeatedly declared that
| he was not a candidate, did not desire
to be one, and that if elected to another
! term, it would be at a great personal
sacrifice, he has been borne along by a
resistless ambition to attain the object
| he has persistently denied he wanted,
AS a contemporary has said, the pres
sure" brought to bear upon him to be a
candidate has been mainly forced by
himself and his friends.
| In the quiet, wise, statesmanlike ad-
ministration of Taft the people .have
missed the spectacular in the admins
tration of Roosevelt, but Taft has steadily
grown in the estimation Of the people as
they have come to appreciate him and
the work that he has accomplished. AS
La Toilette has been withdrawn from
the arena. were it not for the reappear-
ance of the 'Plumed knight" the party
would be reunited upon Taft in the next
| three months--with the exception of a
handful of malcontents-and- he would
receive the nomination in June by
acclamation. The temperance threatens
the disruption OF the party,

IMPORTANT MATTERS INVOLVED.
Town Meeting Full Of Possibilities
Street Railroad from Central Vermont
Yard Out Flat Street May Come.

Town meeting will open Tuesday
morning at o'clock, DR.. H. d. Holton
presiding. Voting on the license aues-
ton will begin at once and will continue
until O'Clock. Meantime the other ar
ticles in the warrant will be acted upon
j. e. Mellen and d. T. Perry appar-
emily have a clear field with respect to-
the offices of selectman for three years
and road commissioner for one year, re-
spectively. In view of the large increase
in the town poor account there Is
demand for an overseer who will admin
lister his office on a business basis as
recommended by the selectmen, and W.
a. Shumway is being urged to allow his
name to be voted upon.
Just what action will be taken relative
to appropratng $4,000 for cement side
walks and relative to Strengthening Main
and Flat streets near the Judge and
Ray buildings is problematical. Blue
prints showing how the streets ought
to be Strengthened have been made and
this week three men, w. H. Bracket c..
H. Crosby and l.. E. Holden. acting in
an unofficial capacity, have estimated
| the damage which would result to the
| owner of the Judge and Ray properties
| Attorney Herbert G.. Barber who in
| TENDS TO remove the present buildings
and erect four-story building for
stores and offices. Their average esti-
| mate was $4500. This is for. 1853 souare
|
on Flat street, or 1899 square feet. This
lacks 267 square feet of equalling the
area OF the Judge property, for which
Mr.. Barber paid $780, and he thinks
damages of 1880 would be too little.
The plan contemplates making Flat
street so feet wide and taking land on
the south side in front of several build
| ings amounting to over 1000 square feet,
in addition to what would be taken on
the north side. The object of this is to
make 1t possible for the street railroad
company to build on Flat street, the
proposed railroad developments contem-
plating an extension of the street rail-
| road down Vernon street so that freight
cars may be hauled from the railroad
| yard up Vernon street and out Flat and
Frost streets, practically placing the
Valley Grain company the Dewitt
| Grocery company, Leslie Smith, Holden
Il Martin, the S. A. Smith company, the
Hooker Corser e Mitchell company, as
well as other present and future ship
pers, on the line of the railroad.

The Springfield Reporter says that Al
len NJ Fletcher of Cavendish, candi-
date for governor, voluntarily placed
himself in the hands of the listers in
such a way that he paid actually more
in taxes than he could be legally
assessed" This is all fine as far as it
goes, but why not give a bill of par
ticulars? Mr.. Fletcher is reputed to be
a man of great wealth. The Reporter
might tell just what Mr.. Fletcher's in
ventories have shown in the years that
he has been a legal resident of Caven-
dish. and just what he paid taxes on.
The law is plain and specific. 1t says
a man shall file an inventory, and we
see no reason why he should make any
arrangement with the listers. If a man
wanted to pay, more than he could be
assessed he could make the town a gift
and not contribute the money in the
form Of taxes. We hope the Reporter
will tell us the whole story.

Hale X. Darling of Chelsea, who has
spent much of the time the past three
years in Brattleboro, assisting Clarke c.
Fits in important legal matters, is
strongly supported edtorially by the
Randolph Herald and News for the Re-
publican nomination for state senator
ship. Orange county lost one of her two
senators through the redistricting of
the state following the taking of the last
census. Mr.. Darling, who has served
twice in the lower house and in various
capacities has had close and intimate
knowledge of and experience in law
making. The Herald and News says
1T is doubtful If there is a better in
formed man in the state on the letter
and purpose of the law. He is a clear
thinker, a good reasoner and a convinc-
ing speaker. All-around, he is, we are
positive, the best man to be found in
Orange county for the place this year"
