some weight there, because it was known
that the primary worked poorly AMI
that many voters failed to get their
votes counted, albeit the inference is fair
that as many Taft men as Roosevelt
men We're thus deprived of the right.
But here in Vermont there is not the
slightest intimation that Taft managers
robbed Roosevelt, nor that any slick
politics prevented full and free express
sion of Roosevelt sentiment; indeed, II
the truth were known, it would probably
turn ont that the Roosevelt support was
more closely gathered to the caueuses
than was the Taft strength. In conse-
quence, every Roosevelt delegate is
tagged with Roosevelt tag as securely
as an expression of sentiment by the
voters in the individual caueuses was
able to do the job; and they will be
men of unusual hardhood who attempt
te go back on those instructions.
Therefore, for Manager Dixon to has.
ten to Vermont with an expressed pur-
pose to prevent any further political
robbery by Taft supporters is absurd
All he can do Is to snap up some OF the
stray votes which were not instructed by
the caueuses; and in that the Roosevelt
managers have as fair field of opera
ton as the Taft managers. But there
will be no robbery" on either side, Mr.
Dixon, if Vermonters are allowed to
carry on the campaign Of that you and
Col Roosevelt may rest assured Yer
mont has no desire to have New York
or Indiana methods introduced, no mat
ter by whom introduced.

One of the duties Of the governor Of
Vermont is to represent the state on spe-
cial occasions in other states; and in
electing a governor Yermonters should
have in mind that qualification which
enables man to represent the state
well. In connection with this, one is
struck by the following paragraph from
the Springfield, Mass, Republican, re,
lating to the visit of Joseph A. DeBoer
of Montpelier to the annual sugarfest Of
the Vermont association in Springfield:
"Mr, DeBoer was thoroughly in his
element, and in an eloquent and convinc-
ing way trarersed the present conditions
IN Vermont. He gave some striking H.
lustrations of what Vermont has done
and is doing. He showed how the state
is building mp a unique fund for the ad-
yancing of education and is expanding
enormous sums of money in improving
the roads. 1t was just what the people
wanted to hear. He showed that he had
splendid grasp of the situation and
that he is a fearless critic and a sane
reformer. His policies are distinctiyely
constructive and he evidently believes
that the evils which lurk in the body
polite can be eliminated by erowding
them out with better things. He was
listened to with the keenest interest and
won repeated applause"
Coming from an unprecedented source,
such word picture OF one of Vermonts
candidates for governor carries its own
significance. In selecting Mr.. DeBoef
as their governor, Vermonters would be
assured that they would be splendidly
by an executive who is thor
oughly conversant with Vermont eondi-
tions and Vermont needs. 1t il a quail
fcation which commends Mr.. DeBoer to
Vermont people.

Barre should be interested in the state
ment that Rutland expects to buy an
automobile fire truck for less than S. 900
Mayor Clement in an official report says:
The sum of $4,000 estimated cost for an
automobile truck is an outside figure,
should expect to purchase one for
something less than this, although un-
derstand that $1,000 is the list price OF
such machines" IF that is the case in
Rutland, ii ought to be SO in Barre,
1t is worth looking into, city council,
before the city Of Barre is asked to pay
the $500 which has been appropriated
for the purchase Barre can get ma
chine as cheaply as Rutland, and we
should inquire how Rutland proposes to
buy the machine.

CHICKEN STOPS
LIGHT PLANT

Prom Saturdays Daily
An incident unparalleled in the
history of the local light plant, if not
throughout the land, occurred this
morning about 6:30 at the plant,
when a barnyard denizen in the form
of a dominecker hen calmly and eau
tiously meandered her way into the
engine-room. The hen was evidently
seeking a secluded spot where she
might deposit her daily egg, for she
tried to fly into the big dynamo, and
in doing so, became ensnared in the
belt which runs the EXETER. The
belt carried the fowl to the pulley on
the EXETER, and at the psychologist al
moment when the hen interviewed be-
tween the belt and the pulley, the
belt slipped off, thereby shutting the
entire plant down for a period of 10
minutes, until the belt was readjust-
ed.
Superintendent Leverett stated this
morning that the only evidence OF
where hen had formerly existed
was few feathers scattered here
and there on the floor.
