vERMoNT's SPLIT DELEGATION.

It is rather unusual that Vermont's
delegation in the Republican national
convention at Chicago should be divided,
as brought about by the results in the
two district conventions yesterday aft
ernoon, although it is quite a common
occurrence in many states that there
should not be unanimity of sentiment
for candidate for president. The bal
loting in the first district revealed a
marked preponderance of sentiment for
the return of President Taft, and the
balloting in the second district disclosed
clear majority of sentiment in favor
of possible third term for Theodore
Roosevelt.
However, Vermont's influence in the
national convention is so negligible that
the split in the ranks will have little eff
feet in the convention aside from the
moral effect of an apparently unsettled
people. And such influence is likely TO
make itself more felt prior to the con-
Tention rather than during the conven-
tion because of that slight sway which
il may have from now on in the election
of delegates in other states. Some
states may look to Vermont and be
influenced by the split delegation, which
is to be sent to Chicago; but six-and-
Two division of Vermont's eight votes
will make little difference in the count
ing of votes there.
As to the voting in the conventions,
majorities rule in our scheme of govern
ment; and, therefore, the Ver1monters
who have thought it mistake, tactical
and moral, for Theodore Roosevelt to
enter the race for the presidency must
bow to the decision of the majority in
the second district and abide by the
count of the votes.

While Barre granite manufacturers
look upon the Milford n H., granite in
dustry as only small rival, they never
tbeless need to take cognizance of the
lusty efforts which are being made by
the Milford men to increase their bust
ness. The latest move is the publication
OF twenty-page booklet, entitled "The
Milford Messenger Published in the In,
terests Of the Granite Industries of Mil
ford, N. II. Spring Edition, 1912" The,
cover is granite gray, and the sheets
bear advertisements of the Milford bust
ness, together with the claims of Milford
granite, accompanied by many half-toIe
illustrations. What is also interesting
is that 1900 copies of the booklet have
been distributed to all parts of the Unit
ed States and Canada.

Under the new corrupt practices law in
Ohio, candidate cannot give even a
cigar to a voter, according to the inter
probation of the attorney general. While
it is pretty cheap voter that would sell
his vote for cigarand possibly poor
cigar at that-the intent of the law as
revealed by the attorney general finds
favor with great many people who are
disguised with the ways and wiles of
some candidates. Therefore, the only
way to deal with such candidates is to
tie them hand and foot, just rs the Ohio
corrupt practices law seems to do.
