Annette after dob" McCuen

Mr.. Editor
We note your quotation from the
press. st. Johnsbury Caledonian aid
Morrisville Messenger, asking the
question. "Do you know of man who
stands better in the state than Guy w.
Bailey?"
The Rutland Herald answers
''There's McCuen too
Isn't this gentleman the one who
married nice wife and who has in
variably voted against the woman
suffrage bills and was he not the only
man in the senate to oppose the Ebill
giving the wife full control of her
own property?
This man may stand better with the
men of the state, than Guy w. Bailey,
but not among the women who have
watched the progress of both.
Yours for a square deal,
Mrs. Annette w. Parmalee

Charlie Thompson announces that he
must resign as one of the contributing
editors to the Progressive party's new
paper, The Advance. owing to the
physical strain he finds himself under
in preparing regularly considerable
matter for each weeks issue. That S
right, Charlie, let some of the other
fellows do some hollering. You've
done your share.

For Convention.

If it was thought that the conven-
ton did not represent the will of
the people a very simple remedy is
at hand. Unless a candidate re-
ceiVes a two-thirds vote at the con-
vention a primary could be held.
Thus the primary could be used as a
safety valve, as a guarantee to the
people that their wishes would not
be disregarded.
The argument for direct primar-
les is based upon the assumption
that the voter is either corrupt or
ignorant; corrupt in that he has
used his vote in violation of his
duty or ignorant in that he has Qn-
knowingly let himself be used by I'M
scruplOus politicians. If this be the
case it is a condition which a mere
change in nominating machinery will
not remedy.
AS the number of voters who par
ticipate in the caucus under the con-
vention system is not a matter of
record no accurate comparison can b
made. But it is a matter of fact
at the last general election in the
states of Maine, New Hampshire, Wis
| consin, Kansas and Oregon, typical
primary states, the total vote for
governor at the primary was 573,254,
while the vote at the general election
| for governor was 1,020,533.
The convention is in harmony with
the representative system of govern
ment. If you abandon it inl favor OF
the primary you are but taking the
| first step toward the pure democrat
| lc form Of government, a form which
history proves absolutely unavoidable
for any but the smallest political
| unit
The curse Of the evils of bossism
| is not in the machinery of politics. It
| is chiefly in the frequency of elect
! ions and the enormous number and
| absurd variety of places to be filled
| by elections. Not more but less
! elections is what we want.
| It must be remembered that Yer
| mont does not have the same con-
vention system that many of the
| Western states, where they now
| have direct primaries, formerly had.
Where the voters in the town elect
ed delegates to the county conven-
| tiOn who in turn elected delegates
to the state convention which NOM
| mated the state officers. In Yer
mont the town elects directly the
delegates to the state nominating
convention and holds these delegates
directly Irresponsible. Vermont laws
should be framed not to meet the
needs of some far off Western state
but to meet the needs of Vermont.

In the news columns of this issue
appears a call, signed by prominent
representatives of the different parties,
for the formation of a non-partisan
Prouty club in Orleans, the purpose of
which will be to work for the election
of C.. A. Prouty to the United States
senate. This move is the natural Gull
mination of the sentiment of the peo-
pie of this section and the Monitor
looks for the move to grow until the
entire state is covered with Prouty
clubs, and the Monitor confidently
looks for his election to the senate.
This is not a mere snap statement but
is made after careful analysis of the
temper Of the people of not only this
section but of other sections of Yer
mont. The people almost demand
Prouty and now that it is known that
he will accept the election but will
not enter into campaign for it, they
are determined that he shall serve
them. This is something new to Yer
mont politics. Beneath the surface
there is in this state today wide
spread feeling that Mr. Dillingham;
does not quite measure up to the feel
ing of the times, that other would-be
candidates are still less desirable, but
that G. A. Prouty measures above
them ell in his conception and express
sion of the temper of the people of
his state and in his natural ability and
general experience. His eminent sue
cess in one of the most trying and
important positions in the United
States furthermore gives him prestige
that would at once place Mr.. Prouty in
a commanding position in the United
States senate. where he would in turn
place Vermont back in the position it
held in that body, when she was
served by Edmunds and Morrill,.
Again we say there is no question
about the Prouty feeling all over the
state and unless the Monitor reads the
times very much amiss this sentiment
will naturally come to the surface in
the form of non-partisan Prouty clubs
over the entire state. And that righ
soon. Orleans leads the way.

In speaking Of the pardons granted
by Governor Fletcher the Advance says
"Hardly a week passes now but what
some pardon is granted, and. so far as
we have been able to discover, no
effort has been made to ascertain from
the prosecuting attorney whether new
evidence warranted executive Glenn
ency." Without coming to the Cover
nor's defence or knowing the complete
facts we would ask: Is it true that our
States prison is SO full that when new
committals are made room cannot be
found in that institution for them
until others are removed ? If this be
true what should be done?

The MorrisviIIe Messenger says the
Monitoris far from far to that paper
in stating that: cit seems strange
to the Monitor that the Messenger is
now so anxious about keeping Mr..
Bailey at his present job when last
fall it was advocating a state ticket
that would have deprived the state
of Mr.. Bailay's work in his present
position had that ticket been elected"
and says we owe it an apology. If
the Messenger insists and will so state,
that it did not advocate."a state tick
ct that would have deprived the state
of Mr.. Bailey's work in his present
position had that ticket been elected, !"
we render the apology. Charlie
Thompson says, "You are either for
us or against US" Which were you
last fall, Mr.. Messenger?

crowded out for want OF space, TO ask
for space and II has been given them.

advantage OF tho failure OF the big fell

all kinds In the machinery exhibit. The
failure OF the big fellows 10 exhibit has
given the other firms chance that they
do not propose TO pass up and instead
of the old line OF machines OF former
years the 1914 exhibit will see a large

with a great deal Of interest.
The exhibition OF traction engines will
