CANDIDATES FOR GOVERNOR


Vermonters who were remarking a
short time ago that summer dullness
characterized the political situation
are now finding enough to talk about
With Fleetwood, C:=u.s2t and Howe
out for the Republican nomination
and the entries not yet closed, the
situation is becoming interesting.
Any one of these gentlemen, if he
gave the best that was in him, would
make a good governor. Mr.. Clement,
by reason of his large wealth and his
railroad affiliations is we'll known
from one end of Vermont to another.
Twice he has essayed to be governor,
both times running against the regu-
lar Republican nominee. He is man
OF matchless business ability, which
of course does not mean that he would
be business governor. His great
est weakness. we believe, lies In the
fact that he is a millionaire, for have
we not been told many times in the
last eighteen months that it was time
Vermont had rest from millionaire
governors?
In contrast to Mr.. Clement in this
respect is Frank l.. Howe. Mr. Howe
admits in his announcement that he
is without financial means to make
pre-conyention canvas He is how
ever, popular in his party, and will
not be without warm supporters In
the convention. Mr.. Howe's an
nouncement contains a number OF
suggestions for the Improvement OF
Vermont, all entitled to careful con-
sideration.
Mr.. Fleetwood, who announced
sometime ago that he was a candidate
without announcing party aliiliatloh
now says he is "a progressive Repub-
can and shall seek the nomination OF
the Republican party at its forth
coming convention Like Mr. Glenn
ent, he says he will do no pre-con-
yention work. He makes strong
point here, when he declares that he
has mo desire or intention OF so do
ing and If Mr. Clement as we'll as 9th
er candidates match their methods
with this desire the Republican con-
ention will be truly deliberative
body composed of uninstructed dele
ates. tho result of whose action will
show in the platform adopted and
the candidates nominated, the exact
principles, practices and purposes of
the Republican party OF vermont.
Oiin Merrill OF Enosburg may yet
come into the game, as both Repub-
leans and Progressives have visited
him to find ont how he feels about
becoming candidate. He is said TO
have given no answer yet.-Ver-
gennes Enterprise.

From Mems Wear.

1t is claimed that there is not more
than two months stock of raw silk in
America. Already prices have begun
10 advance.
And so 1t goes through the entire
mems and women's wear trade. A
general boost in prices has already
come just as it has in food prices but
not yet as great.
We are fortunate. in that we have
bought for this fall and winter our
entire supply OF suits. trousers, hats,
shirts. gloves. neckwear, underwear
and hosiery A great deal of these
goods are in and balance almost
ready to ship.
Not piece Of goods-not an ar
ticle OF furnishings or hats but that
was purchased before the war broke
ont and we own all of il right.
Now we promise You that no mat
tet how great an advance there is
Our prices Will not go up on one
single thing this Fall and Winter.
Not thing in this stock viii be
advanced over normal prices during
the entire season. that you may de-
pend on
Rather do We expect to sell little
lower in suits and overcoats to help
you out on tho higher cost OF your
groceries.
This is a time when every mer.
chant should do his best to keep
prices within bounds. II is a time
when those OF us who were fortunate
enough to get a seasons goods be-
fore the war advance should pass our
good luck along to the public who
has helped us build up large
and prosperous business.
We're in hopes OF being in bust
ness in Bennington at least 100 more
years and this is the time to demon
strate TO you that we're fair with
you in clondy times as we'll as
when the suns shining.
