TEST VOTE FOR DILLINGHAM;.
In Lamoille County Primary Vote fol
United States Senator.

Morrisvile, March 4.--Another primary
election vote was taken in Lamoille coun-
ty yesterday on the lines of the vote
taken in 1912, preceding the opening OF
the presidential campaign of that year
A primary test vote for United States
senator and governor was taken. SEN
ator Dillingham; received 1858 votes for
election to the national Senate against
3l3 for Charles A. Prouty and 93 for
Fletcher. Frederick G. Fleetwood for
governor received 716 votes. C. w. Gates
-, and Harlan b. Howe l27.
Lewis P. Thayer had the vote taken
at his own expense. That no suspicion
could be east upon the ballot every pos
sible precaution was taken. The men Sc
lected to look after the ballot in the
several towns were the county senator,
Hon. f. H. Sherwin in Johnson, Repre-
sentative Guyer of Wolcott Representa-
tive Smile of Cambridge, Representative
Brown of Eden, Representative Strong of
HYDE Park, the town clerk and Repre-
sentative Thomas of Belvidere. the town
clerk and the representative in Water
vile, H. f. Shaw, representative of
Stowe, the representative of Elmore,
Winfield L. Silloway and f. E. Camp.
In every other town the representative
or some equally prominent citizen was
in charge of the ballot.
A careful tabulation of the cost of
printing posters, ballots and all expenses
connected with the taking OF this bal
lot. shows that it cost for this entire
county, less than $50. thus proving that
a simple primary election ballot need
not be expensive.
II is the first authoritative expression
of the sentiment of the people on the
senatorial and governorship question in
Vermont. Under the new amendment
to the constitution of this state, there
will be no election until the first Tuesday
in November and no conventions or other
means of testing the sentiment of the
people until next fall.

CARRANZA INTENDS
TO INVESTIGATE
Breat Britain Announces She Will Not
Look to United States to Force
Reparation.

Washington, ID. G., March 4.-GeneraI
Carranza's announcement that he had ap-
pointed a special commission to investi-
gate the recent execution by General
Villa of William S. Benton, a British
subject, coupled with declaration by
Great Britain that she would not look to
the United States for action as a result
of the incident, is generally accepted to-
day as meaning the abandonment of the
expedition of American and British rep
resentatiyes who were to have gone to
chihuahua to examine the body.
The decision of General Carranza to
ferret out the truth of the Benton ex-
ecution will mean a test of his authority
over Villa, according to officials here,
and will further demonstrate whether the
constitutionalists intend to afford pro-
lection to foreigners and make repara-
tion for injury done them.
One reason that there is little tendency
to press the inquiry on the part of the
United States or Great Britain is the
fact that by this time Benton's body
must be badly decomposed.
The next steps in the situation seemed
to-day to depend on Carranza. His dec
laration that the United States had no
right to inquire about the welfare of
any foreign subjects but her own will
not be accepted by the Washington gov
ernment.

At Montpelier to-day, where returns
were received by the Montpelier publicity
committee, it was stated that the ma
iority with II towns in Addison and La
moille counties missing was 1861 against
the proposed addition to the State House.
The figures were:
Yes 1913; no 1904.
The missing towns were expected to
increase the majority against the pro-
posal by about 500 votes, as most of the
towns were in that part of the state
which proved to be most hostile to the
movement. 1t was learned that most
of the small towns were opposed to the
proposed addition, while with few excep-
tions, notably Burlington, the cities and
largest towns were in favor of the prop
osition.
Just what effect the action of the vot-
ers would have on the law which was
passed by the legislature was not certain
at Montpelier to-day; but it was hoped
that there might be more favorable ac-
tion at the next opportunity.

Some of the Administra-
tion's Accomplishments
Recalled
HAS KEPT CONGRESS
HARD AT WORK
Will Deliver Another Mes
sage Tomorrow for Repeal
of Canal Toll Exemption

Washington, d. c., March 4.-Ths
Democratic administration was one
year old to-day and at the White House
and in Congressional circles the day
served to recall the work of the feeting
year, Members of Congress realized
that. except for short breathing spell
at Christmas. it had been practically in
continuous session.
From the time the president broke the
century-old precedent and stood before
Congress to urge the enactment of a
low tariff, close cooperation has reigned
between the chief executive and the
leaders of the dominant party in Con-
gress.
The enactment Of the tariff law, max
ing vital changes in the duties on i'm
ports, the signing of the banking and
currency act and the recent ratification
of arbitration treaties are things to
which the presidents friends are point
ing as direct result of the intimate
contact established between the execu-
tive and legislative departments.
Five times the president has appeared
before Congress to deliver messages and
interest in the sixth message was appar-
ent when it became known he would ad-
dress Congress tomorrow, advocating
repeal OF the clause exempting American
coastwise shipping from payment of the
Panama canal tolls. His argument for
asking the party to reverse itself is that
when Congress last passed on the ques-
tion the international circumstances sur
the question did not exist.
The message of tomorrow viii be the
shortest of all, probably not over 500
words.
