allegiance for five years during the
Roosevelt administration When
President Taft gave orders that the
suit be pressed, he was told, after
preliminary Investigations had been
made, that one of the obstacles to
be overcome was the fact that the
trust had been permitted to operate
during a former administration
which knew that the law was be-
ing violated.
Can it be this fact explains in
any way the activity of Medill Nc
Cormick, publicity manager for the
Roosevelt campaign and an inter
ested party in the trust, and George
w. Perkins, also interested in this
trust and credited with being one
Of the financial supporters of
Roosevelt? Would Mr.. Roosevelt's
nomination be the voice of the peo-
pie or the revenge of the trusts that
have been compelled to stop their
illegal business under President
Taft's administration?
Here are some rather illuminat-
ing facts in connection with Mr..
Roosevelt's appeal for the people.
In the publication of the Roosevelt
campaign expenses in the state of
New York it is stated that George
w. Perkins formerly with J. p
Morgan & Co., the organizer of the
Harvester trust, and a director of
the steel trust, contributed $751;
900. Frank A. Munsey, associated
with Mr.. Perkins in the street trust
pool, and Alexander Cochran, direct
or of the Northern Pacific railway
and trustee of the Union Trust COM
pany, joined with Mr.. Perkins, and
each contributed $4,000 for the
Roosevelt campaign expenses. In
all, as shown by the statement Of
expenses in New York city, $780,
1865 was spent to secure about
Is, 900 Roosevelt votes, or practi-
cally four dollars apiece. Then,
when the voting at the primaries
was over, Roosevelt and his friends
cried fraud and robbery. Evidently
they felt that the returns were
small considering the size of the in
vestment.

Revolution in Schools.

At the invitation of E. B. Smith
of Brattleboro, E. d. Collins of
Middlebury, P. R. Leavenworth of
Castleton, o. D. Mathewson of
Barre and G. S. Wright of ST. AL
bans, about fifty educators met in
Burlington last week and formulat-
ed a set of resolutions suggesting a
complete revolution in the control of
the public schools of Vermont. These
resolutions are to be submitted to
a referendum vote of all the teach
ers in the state. The plan outlined
follows:
For an educational commission of
nine members, both men and wom-
en-, three to be successfully engaged
in teaching - Vermont and the
terms of a majority of them not to
expire in any biennial period, the
board to be appointed by the gov
ernor.
The commission to appoint as ex-
ecutive officer, a superintendent of
education, who shall not be a mem
Der of the commission.
The commission to approve the
expenditures of all money from the
state treasury for education.
The certification for elementary
teachers to be so revised that every
elementary teacher can prepare pu-
pills for free tuition in secondary
schools.
The commission to apportion the
permanent school fund so as to aid
and encourage the rural schools in
towns most needing such aid.
inspection and classification of
the high schools by the commission
Equalization of normal school
advantages by the payment by the
state of the mileage of pupils at the
beginning and ending of terms.
Establishment of minimum
wage for teachers.
Establishment of vocational and
industrial training.
We suppose if a person should
advocate the retention of the pres
emit system of allowing the repre-
sentatives of the people to elect a
superintendent, a board created by
the people have charge of the ed
vocational funds raised by the people
and the compensation of teachers
according to their individual worth
he would be called an educational
standpatter. But it may prove q
wiser course to make educational
changes about as fast as public SEN
timent will enforce them rather
than to turn them over to a board
of experts chosen Independent OF
the people.

Presidential Gomez.

Figures from an uninterested
source regarding the presidential
contest compiled at the close of last
week give President Taft 3SS of
the delegates to the republican con-
vention so far elected, and out of the
$50 more to be elected he has only
to gain 152 to control a majority of
the convention. The Roosevelt bu-
reau claims 271 at the utmost and
includes in it's number everything
possible, many of the seats in the
convention having been in an ap-
parently legitimate way procured by
Taft men. The Roosevelt people
even claim So delegates from Penn
sylvania, although they refuse to
put in the Taft column the SO del
egates elected for him in New
York under precisely similar cir
cumstances. None were absolute
ly instructed. The Roosevelt people
give the Taft people only 81 actual
delegates so far elected. In the
democratic camp, Champ Clark
claims 1876 votes so far and that
Harmon has 80, Burke 10, Wilson
SIS, while Maine and New York I'M
instructed make 1O3 votes. Clark
claims II delegates in Pennsylvania
favorable to him, an exaggeration
probably.

ing spirit of the presidents friends
is aroused, the limitations from the
White House are that the president
feels that the dignity of his Office
must be maintained and that he
cannot as a consequence indulge in
personalities with any man. There
is vast difference between being
in the White House and out of it,
the president holds. If he were not
president Mr.. Taft could pursue a
different course.

In Senatorial Contests.

Process of Elimination Being Felt
In Senatorial Contests.
The senatorship from the north
part of the county seems to be
practically settled and L. A. Oar
ling of Burke will be the republican
candidate. Burke people have de-
cided to present no other name
from that town and if they make
united demand it is probable the
county will endorse their man.
In the local field it looks as
though the issue would be fought
out between C.. A. Calderwood and
w. A. Kicker. 1t was talked for a
time that H. H. Carr might enter
the contest but he has told hts
friends that he shall not do so.
This leaves Kicker and Calderwood
clear field with both confident and
the final choice open for discus
sion.
Judge E. w. Brown of Waterford
will be a candidate for reelection as
assistant judge and it is said that
DIR. S. A. Jones of Sheffield and pos
sibly Fred Hoffman of Lyndonville
may seek the other assistant Judge
ship.
Very little is said regarding the
states attorneyship and the only
avowed candidate is r. A. Norton of
