EX. SPEAKER CANNON'S VAIN
EFFORT.

The announcement that former Speak.
err Joseph G. Cannon of the United
States House of Representatives is a
candidate for reelection to that body
from the 18th Illinois district gives
promise of somewhat spectacular cam
paign in which the skyward tilted cigar
will be one of the chief features, while
from around the cigar will issue flow
of words that will fairly crackle with
dryness. The 18th Illinois district viii
be sure of having a free show and will
enjoy it if the people haven't become
surfeited with that kind Of entertain
ment from this particular performer.
But that is about as far as the thing is
likely to 20, for Cannon must be held
there about as he is held in other parts
OF the country-a man who has served
to his limit and who ought to remain
in retirement for his remaining years
and permit some less aged and more re-
eeptive man to take the position. By the
time that the term of office which Can
non seeks would begin, Cannon would be
almost into period of octogenarianism.
He already is rs years of age and more
over, he has been out of public life for
a few years and thus out of touch with
the current of events. In fact, there
were many complaints that Cannon was
out of touch with the trend of affairs
even while he was a member of Congress
and the speaker of the House. 1t Is not
probable that in the years that have
ensued since then. during which he has
aged to a considerable extent. he has
come into closer sympathy with present
day ideas. Therefore, former Speaker
Cannon's candidacy is not regarded very
seriously.

CURRENT COMMENT
Greater Vermont AssOcia alton.

Some of the officials of the Greater
Vermont association are complaining be-
cause the association is not getting all
the credit due it. 1t is claimed that
all the better acquaintance trips" about
the state were inspired by the assoeia-
ton. In fact if the association had not
done deal of pumping no such trips
would have been started. 1t is con-
tended and with apparently good rea
son that local boards of trade ought
not TO be given all the credit for carry
ing through good idea. These local
bodies did their parts well, but might
never have generated sufficient steam
to get under way if the larger associa-
tion had not contributed a little fuel.
This association is a corporation and
has at least two good officers, James
p. Taylor, formerly OF Saxtons River,
secretary and F. II. Babbitt of Bellows
Falls, chairman of the board of direc-
tors. II is doing good work in several
directions AMI is bound to keep moving
in the right direction so long as Mr.
Taylor is secretary.-Bellows Falls

FaIlacy of Locality.

I'm a column editorial The London.
derry Sitter comes to the support of Por.
ter n. Dale TO succeed Representative
Frank Plumley, referring to the Island
Pond aspirant as our strong visaged
friend The Sitter makes the argument
az such a claim may be dignified by
that namel, that Dale should be chosen
because Essex county never has had a
representative in Congress. In our hum
bic opinion Essex county never should be
represented in Congress until il can pro-
dnce a stronger candidate than Dale. -

and appears in the same form every.
where. II is the fallacy of locality. The
Sitter seeks to make point by saying
that Mr.. Dale should be chosen because
Essex county never has had represen-
tative in Congress. This sounds famil-
lar; it il familiar; it is the basis for the
"favorite son" movement, whenever ii is
encountered.
Home loyalty is a great thing, but
like other good characteristics it can
easily be carried too far, 1t ought not
to have to be said that because man
lives in certain place it does not make
him the logical candidate for this or that

ers are concerned, not with his place of
residence, other than it be within the
confines of the legal district This very
truth reveals the absurdity of the
mountain rule" in the election of SEN
ators and governors to which Vermont
has chung so tenaciously. 1t is a GUS
tom, but some customs are absurd, as
anyone will admit. The Messenger is in
clined to believe that Mr.. Dale must
have some other and more worthy quail
fcation than his residence in Essex
county. st. Adams Messenger,

Information comes to this office that
the poorest highways in the state are in
Chittenden county. This is not as il
should be- Particular criticism has been
made of the Sand Bar bridge and the
two-mile stretch across the swamp east
of the bridge. Then the road from there
into Burlington is actually dangerous in
many places, besides being altogether too
narrow for safe automobile traffic. Chit
tenden county should wake up to the
need of making more liberal appropria-
tions for highway improvement. Bur
lington Clipper.
1t is readily conceded that Chittenden
county has some of the worst strips of
highway in Vermont, but whether those
roads have reached the superlative de-
gree of badness is, possibly, a matter
which some other sections Of the state
could reasonably contest with Chitten-
den county However, the roads there
are in such poor shape that they should
be taken care OF at once. On the east
ern side of the county, for instance
along the main highway across the cen.
trail part of the state, the road is so poor
as to discourage nearly all kinds of traf.
fe, and that poor quality of highway is
one reason why there is not more single
ness of interests between the two sec
tions Of the state. Given first-cIass
highway, if not boulevard, and there
would be less heard about the mountain
rule which was originally applied to-
politics but which has come to be at
tached to business and social relations in
the central part of the state The pres
ent poor roads accentuate the obstacle
which the mountain rule" places be-
tween the counties of Chittenden and
Washington although those two counties
are contiguous and should, therefore, be
more closely related.

settled, together with the greater war

for Europe to recover its composure so

moreover, they can be assured of great

sible in European resorts, where tour
lists arc subjected to all kinds of dis
comforts and, in addition, are made to
pay dearly for the little that they do
receive in service. A motor tour through
New England, for instance, is one Of the
finest vacations that could be arranged
