While the political history OF Vermont
in the last fifty years has shown that
the normal Republican plurality for Gov
ernor is about .. 900. in the last four Pres
idential years it has been from 400 10
i, 600 above that number
In 1895. when Mckinley carried the
country by a popular majority OF So, 50
Vermont went Republican in September
by 3S07e the biggest plurality the state
has ever given TO a Republican Governor
in a Presidential year. In 1890 Mr.. Nc
kinley increased his national majority TO
Si9. 10. but Verrnonrs September plurality
FOR q Republican Governor fell 10 50,S4.
When M. Roosevelt gained 2.5S5.5l5 pop
ular majority. in 1904. Vermont gave its
Governor only 51,559 plurality.
Four years ago, when Vermont elected
a Governor by 29.654. Mr.. Taft in No
vember received a national majority Of

IL will be seen. therefore, that since the
high mark OF 1886 Vermonts Republican
vote IN the September state elections has
been declining, despite the growth in the
national majority.

Whitman Expects Little Delay.

District Attorney Whitman said last
night that ne did not expect motion for
z change OF venue would delay the trial
for more than a few days az the most
he said such d motion was the only pos
delay proceedings, and he did not believe
a stay or that score could be obtained for
more than two or three days. An effort 70
obtain ar injunction or institute habeas
corpus proceedings as methods OF delay
would be fruitless under the circun-
stances, he said. Mr.. Whitman said the
courts in this county were strongly in
clined not TO grant a motion for change Of
venue IN any case and that II was seldom
done.

Similarly Capt. Robert A Bart
lett, who commanded the Roose-
velt In Peary's last twopolar ex-
petitions. tells the Aero Club 0f
New England that the North
Pole should now be attained by
aeroplane. Take an aeroplane to
Cape Morris X Jessup and the
281 miles from there to the Pole
could be traversed in four hours
of continuous flight. Ice would
furnish suitable landing places

lett adds.
Think OF lying across the At

certainly alluring possibilities,

His first speech, was a protest
against appointing judges in

government came in. and became
the most important public man
in England.
He ia a small man. pale, stoop.

his mastery OF intricate details is
40 complete that h. makes his

He gets his audience in a + i" "
