Several Vermont development organiza-
tions have faded from the landscape
without leaving a record of tangible re-
suits, but the Randolph Herald sees
great promise in the new Greater Ver-
mont association, through the election
of Guy w. Bailey, secretary of state,
as its executive head. The Herald and
News says: "Mr. Baileys work in the
publicity bureau, circumscribed as il has
been, stamps him, as everything else he
touches does, as a person of splendid
judgment and rare executive ability, with
his heart in whatever he undertakes
Mr.. Bailey deserves the active support
of every Vermonter in his new task. II
anybody can galvanize life into an or
ga anization of this kind and make ii good
for something besides adding titles to its
officials and notoriety to its patrons it
is our enterprsing secretary of state"
This pretty compliment to Mr. Bailey
is deserved. If the office of secretary
of state is filed for the purpose Of ef-
ficiency Mr.. Bailey will continue to hold
the position for years. When he is
ready to retire it will be fitting to hon
or him with election to the governor
ship. He is the kind of a home product
worthy of further recognition and pro-
motion.

A very marked betterment of senti-
ment for business prospects has occur
red in the last week, owing to the gen.
eral rains which have fallen east of the
Rockies. The result is a fall of is cents
bushel from the high point of wheat,
and an even greater fall in the price
of oats and barley. Corn is not yet Sc
cure, but it's prospects are frightened
by warm weather and moisture and the
price has fallen a little The total grain
crop of the country is estimated to be
625 million bushels greater than last
year, of which over 800 million bushels
are of corn and the rest in oats and
barley, while of wheat we shall raise no
more. The hay crops will be immensely
larger than last year and the potato
crop so million bushels larger, SO far as
bountiful crops can, they will lower the
cost of living, but food commodities are
only small part of the list which
make up the whole cost of life.

In answer to inquiries from M. J.
Hapgood of Peru, Harland B. Howe of
st. Johnsbury, Democratic nominee for
governor, states his pre- convention cam
paign expenses amounted to 10 cents,
one item of 20 cents being a telephone
request to the Montpelier Argus to an
nounce that he was not a candidate, and
the big bill of 55 cents being incurred in
telephoning to Charles d. Watson Of st.
Albans urging him to become a candi-
date Mr.. Howe states that he will pub
lish his campaign expenses before and
after election, as requested by Mr.. Hap
good. Evidently his only expense to
date is in trying to avoid the nomna-
tion.

The census report on live stock, for
the latest enumeration, shows an in
crease in the number of domestic ami
mails. taking the country over, and a
much larger increase in the value of
this kind of property. This increase
amounted to over 60 per cent and the
total amount of assets of this character
was about $4925, 100000. Farm property,
in the meantime, advanced more than
100 per cent The universal increase in
live stock hardly kept pace with the

in part for the increase In the cost of

1t is time to begin to think about the
men who will go to Montpelier this fall
as representatives. No one ought to be
elected because he is good fellow" or
because he has been a worker or fac

Legislature are those who have made
study of state needs and state prob

Editor of The Phoenix:


Dear Sir:-Replying to your request of
the oath l beg to state that I was a
member of the Republican national con-
vention in Chicago, as delegate large
from Vermont 1 was appointed to the
committee on credentials and, as a
member of that committee, l had a very
good opportunity to hear and see the
contests which were presented.
l think the claim of the third-t term
candidate. that there was fraud and
that the nomination was stolen from
him, is nonsense, and / do not believe
excuse, because l believe the object was
anthing to beat Taft, and to punish
President Taft for not having favored
certain parties and policies that he was
told to favor, but in my judgment Pres
ident Taft is not that kind of a man.
The impression made on my mind in
the committee on credentials was that
the contests were in nearly every in
stance fraudulent and "trumped-up"
charges. In a few cases there was some
ground for contest, but not sufficient in
my judgment to make out a case 1 am
referring to the cases where's Taft dele
gates We're seated AS you will doubt
less remember there were no cases pre-
sented to the committee on credentials
where Roosevelt delegates had been seat
ed by the national committee In fact,
there were contests presented which had
been unanimously decided by the ma
tional committee and their course was
naturally approved. AS l observed it,
the unfairness was all on the other side.
Yours very truly,

Col. Estey Calls Roosevelt Charg-
es at Chicago "Trumped Up"
Anything to Beat Taft Was Policy Of
Bull Moose Followers - Statement
from Member Of Credentials Committee

from Member Of Credentials Committee
In view of the hue and cry which is
being made by Theodore Roosevelt and
his adherents, the so-called Progressives,
to the effect that the Republican ma
tional convention at Chicago was stolen
for President Taft, MIR. Roosevet's only
excuse for remaining a candidate for the
presidency being that he failed in. his
contests for the seating of delega tes,
The Phoenix asked Col. J. Gray Estey
this week for his opinion as to the fair
ness of the convention. Col. Estey was
a member of the committee on creden-
tials and in that capacity had first-ha
knowledge as to how matters were con-
Quoted. His conclusion ought to have
great weight with the voters in this
state and wherever he is known. Copies
of the request from The Phoenix and
Col. Estey's reply follow:
Col. ]. Gray Estey
Brattleboro, VT.
Dear Col Estey:-Theodore Roosevelt,
the Bull Moose" candidate for the
presidency of the United States, pur-
poses to predicate the organization of a
third party upon the assumption that
the Chicago convention was stolen for
President Taft, and it is his intention
to attempt to make the alleged theft
of delegates a chief issue before the
country in his campaign.
You were a member of the Chicago
convention as a delegate at large from
Vermont. VIII you kindly give us your
views as to the honesty and fairness
of that convention and as to the justice
of Mr.. Roosevelt's action in breaking
away from the regular Republican or
ganzation.
Yours truly,
