superior to Governor Wilson, the candi-
date for president Of his own party,
Is bound to have material effect on the
democratic vote in Windham county in
November.
In view of the part taken by Mr.. Roel
in the State councils of the Democratic
party. his attitude at this time Il
indicative of change of heart by tho
old guard who have engineered the
destinies of Vermont democracy for over
% years. Mr.. Roel says; while am
