the county Republican committee ar
ranged for and held rallies in many
towns last week and will hold rallies
in every other town in the county
before the week is over The attend
ance has been larger than at any rallies
held in recent years. The halls were
filed at Irasburg and Albany and the
smallest audience in any place was at
Westmore where forty were out. A
number of different speakers from
different parts of the state have been
employed and number of county men
have talked county politics. The mis-
leading statements of Harland B.
Howe, candidate of the Democrats for
situation that Secretary of State Bail
by showing that Howe did not explain
that $4,000 of this amount was money
appropriated and spent for Vermont
publicity. This was shown to be only
characteristic of Howe's campaigning.
1t was impressed upon the hearers
that in county affairs the Progressves,
who two years ago claimed they fought
for principle and principle alone. had
abandoned their principles by uniting
with Democrats on county ticket.
Aaron Grout. candidate for state's
attorney on the Republican ticket and
endorsed by the Progressives after
soliciting some one else to take the
nomination. told in one rally how a
prominent Newport Progressive said
they put him (Grou) on the Progress
sive ticket "to keep his d-m mouth
shut. F" But" said Grout, "They
can't do it," Every indication points
to complete Republican victory next
Tuesday.
