Mr. Proutv delivered a speech in
Morrisville recently. In the course
of his address he referred to the Bos-
ton Evening Transcript, as an enter
| priSing newspaper, for the reason
that it gave space to a speech OF his
made in the CITY Of Boston on the
subject ofrailroad legislation.
Mr.. Proutv is evidently a great
admirer and staunch friend of the
transcript, hut how about the
transcripts admiration for Mr.,
Proutv? In its issue of Get. 5, 1914
that paper contained the following
article i1om the pen Of Mr.. ". E,

Brigham is resident OF Washing.
ton. He knows and is known BY
both Mr.. Dillingham; and Mr..
Prouty. Mr.. BGgham's estimate
of the two men is interesting at this
time to the voters of Vermont.
One of the most mysterious political
contests in the country is being waged
in Vermont over the United States
senatorship; not mysterious in point
of outcome, for no doubt Senator Will
liam P Dillingham; will be reelected
handsomely, but puzzling as to why
Charles A, Prouty, for many years the
New England member Of the Interstate
Commerce Commission, should have
entered the field against him. Why
Judge Prouty, a great authority in the
field of railroad law and administers
ton and now chief of the newly-created
bureau whose duty it is to ascertain
the physical value Of all the railroad |!
in the country-why Judge
Prouty, the ascetic, the student, the |
administrator, should have been at |
tracted to the field of politics is con-
that no one in Washington at |
least, can answer. Yet for years the
Judge has successfully concealed an
ambition to be a United States sena-
tor, and now he has chosen to enter the
lists against not only veteran legis-
ator but one Of the most popular men
he Green Mountain State has pro-
luced.

the present bill only supplements, is a
Dillingham; law. The Vermont sena-
tor is the highest authority in the coun-
try on immigration, and was, in fact,
chairman of the Immigration Com
mission, which assisted him in framing
the scientific measure now hung up in
the Democratic Congress.

Income Tax and Vermont.

Here Is another question:: "What
was your action on the income amend
ment when it was before the Senate?
When it was before the Vermont Legis-
lature?"
If the people of Vermont are as eager
to pay an income tax as this question
implies, Senator Dillingham; probably
is not their kind of man. Mr.. Dilling-
hams position on the income tax was
that of every other Republican senator
in New England-that this was a
Democratic measure whose whole aim
was to make the people of New Eng
land and New York, primarily, pay the
twenty-five to fifty millions the tax
was expected to produce. This was
another case of the sectional legisla-
ton which the Democratic Congress is
enacting all the time to make the
North and West pay the bills of the
South, and the northern senator who
would not have opposed it would have
been false to his trust Senator Dill
lingham also pointed out, when the
amendment was under discussion in
the Legislature, that Vermont had
few bills of her own she would like to
pay and that if an income tax were to
be imposed it should be by the State
and not by the Federal government.

Judge Prouty's Versatility.

The judge is nothing if not compre-
hensive in his new political associations.
He was given the Progressive and Pro-
hibition nominations and went after
the Democratic, but the Democrats
were unwilling that their hollow honors
should go to a Republican, so they
named one of their own men.* The
Judge has been a little confusing as to
his own politics, for last spring after a
meeting of Vermont Progressives in
Boston, when it was proposed that he
should be their candidate, he came out
with a statement that if he ran at all
it would be as Republican. Later at
a meeting in Burlington, which he at
tended, Judge Prouty announced his
to be named for senator as
a Progressive, and when someone ask
ed him if he would be willing to ac-
cept the Republican nomination also
he replied ono" Next day some prac-
teal politician evidently having nudg-
ed him meantime, the judge contribut-
ed further statement to the gayety
Of the campaign in which he explained
hat what he meant by his statement
Of the evening before was that he was
rying to run as non-partisan, and
hat, therefore, the nominations of
my and all parties would be agree
lble.
Anyway, the judge has been given
wo minor nominations, but if he
hould happen to be elected to the Sem
tie he would represent either no party |
It all or all parties together, according |
o how you look at it.

Dillingham; and I'm migration.

Whatever the political complexion
of Judge Prouty, the Non-Partisan
Prouty Club of Orleans appears to be
carrying some of the heavy burdens
of his campaign, if one may judge
from the solemn questions it has pro-
pounded in his behalf. Here is a
sample: "Has any important immigra-
ton measure for which you have been
sponsor ever become a law"
This ominous query, addressed to the
author of the Dillingham; immigration
bill, probably has its roots in the fact
that President William H. Taft vetoed
the Dillingham; bill and thereby pre-
vented it becoming a law. This meas
ure undoubtedly is the most scientific
document of its kind ever compiled
and Taft's objection to it was on ac-
count of its literaey test. The same
bill has passed the Democratic House,
but it is held up in the Senate, with
President Wilson also sidestepping the
lteracy test. rhe point of the Joke
is not, however, what the Non-Par-
tisan Prouty Club of Orleans suggests.
but is found in the fact that the present
law, which has been in
force a good many years and which

He Fought Elkins and Penrose.

The general reader probably is not
greatly interested in the details of the
Vermont contest, but it is only fair to
all parties concerned to say that Sena-
tor Dillingham; is one of the most use
full and influential men the Republican
party has in Congress. He is respected
by men of all parties, and should the
Republicans again come into power he |
would hold commanding position
which neither Judge Prouty nor any
other man the Vermonters could NOM |
mate could hope to achieve in less than |
twenty years.
One of the funniest of the "non-parti-
san" attacks upon the senior senator is
that which accuses him of having been
a boon legislative companion of the
late Stephen B. Elkins and of Senator
Boies Penrose of Pennsylvania. Mr..
Dillingham; is a peaceable man, not
given much to strife, but it so happens
that two of the hottest fights he ever
made in the Senate were against Elkins
and Penrose. In the first, Elkins was
the champion of the North American
Commercial Company, which had the
contract for killing seals on the Pribi-
Iof Islands and was advocating the
of that company against what
the Vermont senator regarded as the
general welfare. The Dillingham; poll
cy has been indicated by the fact that
-he company has now lost its contract
and Senator Dillingham; has been stead
ly active in reaching an international {
agreement, now in force, which will {
protect the seals for the use of future
true conservation poll
".
In the other case, a Chinese exclusion
dill came over from the House in such
'adical form as to make it almost a I
capital crime to be Chinaman. Pen {
ose favored it, Dillingham; deprecated @
