Vermont's waterpowers are gradual
ly but surely being utilized for the
production of electric current which is
bound to be the energy to turn the
wheels of industry in the future. One
of the latest proposed developments
is located in Cambridge where plans
are in progress to develop current
for several towns in Lamoille and
Chittenden counties. There are men
living in Vermont today, not very old
men at that, who can remember when
water power sites were not so par
ticularly valuable. A half century ago
those that were utilized were most
ly occupied by sawmills of the up
right type in which the saw went
up one day and down the next and
which turned out the cheap lumber
used for local consumption. Today
the land comprised in water power
privilege is as valuable as the front
age on the business street of good
sized city.

The Republican State Ticket


Entirely unsolicited and, indeed,
somewhat against the wishes of the
man honored, the Republican nomi-
nation for governor of Vermont has
fallen to Charles W. Gates of Frank
lin, who for 10 years has been at the
head of the state highway depart
ment. In spite of his protests that
he was not a candidate for the nomi-
nation, clear majority of the dele
gates to the state convention at Mont
pelier on Wednesday took 1t upon
themselves to call him as the chief
standard bearer of the party and
had the contest gone beyond tile sec
end ballot there is little doubt that
the Gates vote would have assumed
much greater proportions than on the
record ballot, which vote in itself was
a gain of nearly 100 over the first bal
lot--and that in a convention Of less
than 500 delegates. So markedly
strong was the sentiment in favor of
Gates that nothing could stop 1t, not
even the actual encouragement
which must have fallen upon some be
cause of the passive attitude OF the
man. The feeling permeated the en-
tire party that there was a man who
combined the necessity qualifications
of candidate in a most trying year
and it was the will of that party to
draft that man for it's nominee for
governor, i--r fhi
That action having been taken, it
was not within human province for
Charles w. Gates to say nay to the
call of the rank and file of the people
OF Vermont So he accepted He ac-
cepted not with feeling of exulta
ton over a personal triumph but with
sense of the responsibility which
was thus placed upon him by his fell
low>citizens. With that sense OF re-
sponsibility he will go before the
voters of Vermont at the forthcoming
election, when il shall be dete mined
whether he is to be the states chief
executive far the ensuing two years.
In Mr.. Gates is candidate upon
whom all members of the Republican
party can consistently unite; and in
him, too, the members of other par
ties will be able to find candidate
for whom they can cast their votes
with the conviction Of duty well
done Mr.. Gates is one OF the plain
people OF the state, sturdy Vernon
ter through and through. a man OF in
tegrity, in the prime OF mental and
physical yigor, skilled administra-
tor OF affairs, a tried servant of the
people. tactful, yet firm. a man Of
high ideals and OF persistent adheI-
ence to that which he considers TO be
the right course. IL would not be civ
en- him to furnish the state what
might bo termed brilliant admins
tration, but rather thorough-going
service in which he would enlist all
his energies to the best good of the
commonwealth from start to finish.

Thursday night the meat market OF
William Dohn on Broadway, between
Fifth and Sixth streets, was entered
by the west window and a quantity OF
turkeys, hams and other meat and
considerable lard carried away.
The burglar smashed n of the
window lights, put in his arm and un.
fastened the window, thus gaining
easy entrance. It is supposed the
theft was pulled off by local parties
from the fact that the meat taken was
such as would be used in a home
rather than be stolen for the purpose
Of sale. SO far there is no clue to the
/ thief or thieves.

ATTEMPTED INVASION OF ENG

The reported intention Of the Ger

a suitable port on the English Chat:
mel recalls the elaborate preparations
made by Napoleon early in the las'
century to achieve the same purpose
It was foiled by England's control OF
the sea, the factor on which she re
lies today to protect her island EN-

At the close Of 1873, one Of Napole
on'sprincipal aims was to distract
Great Britain by the threat OF inva
