This surely is peculiar political
year. The democrats charge that the
republican press does not give them a
fair show in the news columns. The
proeressives claim that the republican
and democratic papers (there being but
few progressive papers comparatively
have never given them square deal"
in regard to news matter and it is
noticeable that the progressive press
fails to print plenty of news that is not
favorable to their cause A prominent
Boston paper supporting the progress
ives cuts out about three-fourths Of
the testimony before the senate in
vestigating committee and prints most
ly such facts as tend to help their
cause. The Monitor comes to the de-
Tense of all these papers. 1t is a
physical impossibility for most papers
to print all the political news this year.
The air is so full Of it that a daily
paper of 100 pages would often be
required to print all the news of all
sides. Naturally the papers political
preference receives the greatest
amount of space. The only way to get
all the news from all sides is to take
one of each of the party papers.

Theodore Roosevelt once said Of
Taft: "No man of better training,
no man of more dauntless courage, of
sounder common sense and Of higher
and finer character, has ever come to
the presidency than William Howard
Taft"
When a nan gets to that stage in
politics tha. he believes everyone
supporting Roosevelt is fool" he
better cut politics. Also when man
gets into that political condition that a
campaign picture of President Taft in
a show window is "a disgrace" he
better cut politics too

Roosevelt on to His Job.

A reporter for a Western paper
interviewed farmer in regard to the
political conditions. He asked the
farmer what he thought of Taft and
Roosevelt. The farmer said in
drawing voice, "Well, | kind O. like
that man Roosevelt. He always
knows what to do when he gets in
tight place. A few years ago we had
some trouble down in Cuba, and
Roosevelt knew just what to do. He
sent this man Taft down to smooth
things out, and he made pretty good
job of it. Then, little later we had
trouble over in the Philippines, and as
usual Roosevelt knew just what to do.
He sent this man Taft over there to
smooth matters out, and he made a
pretty good job of that salso. Their,
still a little later, Roosevelt stole d
strip of land down in Colon, and built
the Panama Canal, but it raised a
devil of time down there among the
natives, so Roosevelt sent Taft down
to fix things up, and as usual was very
successful. Then again in 1907
Roosevelt got this country in a devil
of a panic; banks were failing, bust
ness was at a standstill, but Teddy
man nominated for president. He has
held the job now for about four years,
and he's getting things Strengthened
out very nicely. But it was a large
and very difficult matter to straighten
out in short time, so | think we
better stick to this man Roosevelt
and elect his man Taft for four years

Preparations for the second annual
Vermont state corn show, to be held
in the mammoth Kennedy arena,
Windsor, Nov. 6 and 7, are making
comprehensive progress under the
Windsor County Rural Department,

exhibition will be a special depart

A grange exhibit is also open to the
state and the entire show will be
brimful of novel, instructive and

purpose of the exhibition will be
educational and the advancement of
Vermont rural life.

In 1904 Judge Parker said: ''Vast
sums of money have been contributed
for the control of this election in aid
of the administration by corporations
and trusts. " Mr.. Roosevelt replying
to Mr.. Parker said: "The statements
made by Judge Parker are unqualified
ly and atrociously false" The cam
pal gn investigation committee now in
session has brought out the fact that
Morgan, Prick, Gould and Archbold,
all trust magnates, contributed vast
sums of money for this campaign.
One witness testifies that 733 per cent
of the 1904 campaign fund was con-
tributed by corporations. Comment
seems unnecessary.

Gov. Hadley of Missouri, Roosevelt's
most prominent supporter at the
Roosevelt convention, and one of the
seven governors asking Roosevelt to
run, has just declared strongly for
Taft. Gov. Deneen of Illinois, another
erstWhile Roosevelt leader, has de-
clared for Taft. Charles S. Baxter,
who was at the head of the Roosevelt
fight in Massachusetts and chairman
of the Roosevelt delegation at-large
from that state to Chicago, has de-
clared outright for Taft. Col. Fred
erick Hale of Maine. the man who
captured Names delegation for Roose-
welt, has deserted the "bull moose"
and recently comes to the support of
Taft. A. F. Roel of Brattleboro, a
prominent Vermont democrat, last
week threw Wilson over and declared
for Taft. Yet some progressives say
the talk about swing toward Taft is
all manufactured.

WHAT THE PAPERS SAY.
Straw Votes.

Charles B. Gray of Burlington tells
how Roosevelt sentiment was manu-
featured through a straw vote taken
on the train by which he was returning
to Vermont from the west.
The canvasSer, whose political SYM
pathies were manifest, came to- four
women seated together, and upon ask
ing them their presidential preference
the four replied that they had no
particular choice.
"All right then," said the sentiment
promoter. 81 will put you down for
Roosevelt. -
That is one way straw votes are
taken and sent out broadcast to demon
strate that people are fOcking to
Roosevelt. -Burlingto Free Press.
Economy and Efficiency.
Economy and efficiency, what
watchwords they are in the field of
private business!

unique work in the Philippine islands
and Cuba and in the war department,
had an excellent opportunity to become
our government.

as president was to get congress to
sustain him in an effort to do govern
ment business in a more economical
and efficient manner. He got al
appropriation of 500, 900 to back up ar
economy and efficiency commission.
This commission has formulated
methods by which the expenditures
Of the government can be reduced
many millions, and the service at the
same time be greatly improved.
Would the work so promisingly
begun be carried out, if either the
democratic or progressive partie!
should gain control Of the govern
ment?
The trouble with the Democrat,
party is that it is not party tina
naturally attracts business men. Quite
a number of old-fashioned treasur.
Watchdogs are democrats, but what
ever they save usually goes to provid
ing more pork for the localities wher
democratic congressman live.
Had the democrats showed an inter
est in getting more efficient admins
tration, they might properly hav
formulated plans for the improvement
OF the government service, and tn
voters would have given them credi
for SO doing. But economy and eff
cheney are not theatrical enough t
appeal to the democratic heart.
Mr.. Roosevelt was always fire
spender. Under his administrator
the expenses of the government in
creased by leaps and bounds. If h
were to be elected president again
economy and efficiency would be tn
last things that would bother him.
