The editor of this paper is very thank,

tary notices it has given him concerning
his candidacy for Probate Judge in this

to those who have persona'v congratu-

as to the many who have written him
concerning the same. TO be sure there
were some who were opposed to his
nomination and few now, for personal

Senator Dillingham; Decides
Wisely

Senator Dillingham; has spoken wisely
regarding the printing of ballots for the
coming election and, it strikes the Mes
senger, has spoken in a wise way. The
Republican candidate says that he de-
sires, if it can properly be done, that
separate ballots be used and has taken
occasion SO to notify the Secretary OF
State.
Senator Dilliugham's words will cover
some ground in dispellng the belief that
the Dillingham; organization turned
heaven and earth to place Mr.. Gates in
nomination, that the Senator might prof
it by Mr.. Gates unquestioned strength.
The Senator says that even though the
appearance of his name on the same
ballot with Mr.. Gates would be profit
able to him be would nevertheless choose
to forego this advantage. "A full and un-
hampered expression of the will of my
fellow citizens is my desiIe.'
This is commendable view to take Of
it. The question of practical politics
should not enter into question.
As the Messenger has said before, Mr..
Dillingham; and Mr.. Gates stand or fall
by their own strength or weakness. One
ought not to be expected to be carried
through on the back of the other and
one ought not to be handicapped by the
presence of the other. Mr.. Dillingham;
apparently takes the same view. 1t is
the same reasonable view and one that
will appeal to the electorate.
The Messenger cannot see where Mr..
Dillingham; will suffer because of his
statement.-St. Albans Messenger.
