city states that money cannot be voted
unless there is the money to pay with,

issued and the money could not be voted.

kind lies with the city council and this

INFLUENCE OF VERMONT STATl
FAIR.

Despite the excellence of the Vermont
state fair, the agricultural societies in
Rutland and Addison counties paid cX-
penses handsomely last fall, as we have
Just learned from the official reports.
The reason was that, taking profit from
the state fair, they put on some excel
lent exhibitions. In this way, the state
fair is likely to prove beneficial in build
ing up the other agricultural societies of
the state, instead of being the touch OF
poison to them, as was feared when tie
idea of the state fair was first preached
at the State House in Montpelier. Il
we are able to judge by the accounts
of the various fairs of 1911, we should
say that nearly all of them strove to
maintain higher standard in order to
keep pace with the state exhibit at
White River Junction, and most of those
that did try reached the desired end in
large part Let the endeavor go on, for
the public will respond, and, weather
conditions being favorable, the associa-
tions win come out with money in their
treasures.

The st. Johnsbury Caledonian makes
short work OF the so-called argument

by referring to precedent when Y. A.

county; George H. Prouty and Horace

spectively, from Orleans county, and

governor and treasurer, respectively
from Windsor county. If precedent has
any standing, there is nothing against

TAFT Gains Strength.

1t is fast becoming apparent that
the, supposed overwhelming senti-

Roosevelt has been greatly over es-
tlmated by thsacolonel's most. ardent
admirers. Tie Roosevelt move
lnent has not turned out to be SO
popular and widespread as it was
recently supposed, according to evil
dence that is now being amassed.
Events Of the last week show that
the drst tests of President 'Taft's
strength among Republicans during
the Preceding two weeks were not
out of the, general proportion.
Among the earliest tests was al
attempt to STAMPEDE congressional

favor Of Roosevelt by introducing a
Rough Rider feature. but this sig
nally failed as the convention voted
by a large majority to support Mr..

: SIason,s Weiehty words.

I
Judge John Nv, Mason than whom
there are no better nor truer Repubn-
can in West Virginia and who stands
ready at all times for the better
ment of the people of the state,
where public or any other questions
are involved, a man thoroughly in
sympathy with national and state
progress, has made the following
declarations in a lettertto a personal
friend In 3Wheeling, declarations that
will have great weight with the peo-
pie of this state irrespective of po-
litical Affiliations:
81. favor the denomination Of
William Howard Taft and believe he
will be reelected. lie has made a
great president. Tie has rendered
public services of the highest value.
In practical achievement his admin
istration, has been one Of the most
remarkable and most brilliant in
American history"
Commenting ON Judge Mason and
his, position on the presidential
question at this time, the Wheeling
tntelligencer contains the following
editorial:
Judge Mason dates his Republl-
canism from the trying days of '61.
he is one OF the few men still in
public life in West Virginia who
participated in the stirring events
Of the war, and who helped found
this, state. Learned in law, stu
dent and close observer Of public af-
fairs, he is qualified as few men are
to pass cool and impartial judgment
upon a national administration.
Judge Mason's opinion is an evil
dence of the sane and sound senti-
ment which all over this broad land
is turning to William H. Taft. Men
who believe in the ancient faith of
the Republican party, who believe
in the regular enforcement of law,
in the sanctity of the courts, in their
preservation from the pressure OF
mob violence, who refuse to accept
socialistic doctrines of the recall of
Judges and the overthrow Of con-
ystitutional decisions by popular
vote, are everywhere beginning to
realize. that.a great issue is at stake
In this campaign. This country 10
rapidly approaching the parting of
the ways, at which it must decide
whether the representative and ore
Derby government will be- contin'
ned or whether the constitution vii!
be overthrown and the rule of the
mob substituted.
william III. Taft stands against
the recall Of judges. lHe-stands for
the dignity of our courts. More than
any other man IN me land he has
obeyed and forced obedience to law
as it stands upon our statute books.
Much of the 9sentiment against his
denomination comes from the
preachers Of socialistic doctrines
with which pure Republicanism has
nothing in common. To surrender
to this opposition will be to sur
render to the most dangerous ele-
ments in American politics. The
Republican party will not make that
surrender and the sound common
sense of the American people will
sustain It

Great Question Solved.

The French academy has solved &
great question, it's savants having
traced the antipathy for the mother
in-law to the red man. In the Fix
teenth century the Spaniards brough'
back with them, besides gold and
legends, the story of the hatred Of the
mother-in-law among the aborigines.
The noble red man would not wall
in the footsteps of his squaw's mother
till the sea had washed them away, sc
profound was his detestation of his re
lation by marriage.
This hatred, the academician:
think, was relic of the feeling en-
gendered in the days when man stole
his bride by force. Naturally his dis
position toward his mother-in-law wa
not that of an admirer
We are living down the mother-in
law boyle. Unlike the red man, Il
good many of us could walk In he
footsteps with great benefit to oul
selves.
