Chas. e. Hughes Impossible.

Associate Justice Charles E. Hughes
of the United States Supreme Cour
has notified the authorities of Nebras
ka that he declines the nomination a!
republican candidate for president
made by a petition to have his name
placed on the ballot for the presiden-
tial primary in that state. He requests
that his name shall not be placed up
on the ballot. This makes the choice
of the man who would be the party's
strongest asset impossible. 1t is a
distinct misfortune to the republican
party and the whole country.
In Charles E. Hughes the common
people believe they would have q very
able man, honest in his principles and
his practices and progressive wher-
ever justice would be insured by the
adoption of new principles. To him
the country would turn today as to
no other man. But he refuses to give
up his present position to re-enter the
arena of politics While it seems I'M
fortunate that the people cannot have
the man they want, he is undoubtedly
right in refusing to implicate the Su-
preme Court of this country to any
degree in politics. That judicial body
must be maintained absolutely free of
having accepted an appointment to it
he must not allow political honors to
entice him away from it.
one cannot help considering the re-
sponsibility for such a political mis-
fortune as the republican party has
suffered in having Mr.. Hughes placed
beyond it's reach. 1t will be recalled
that in 1908 Mr.. Hughes would have
accepted the nomination for the pres
idency that there was a very strong
popular sentiment in his favor at that
time. There was however one obsta-
Gle and that was President Theodore
Roosevelt. He was determined the
republicans should nominate w. II.
Taft. The writer well remembers the
activity Of the federal officer holders
of that time in behalf of Mr.. Taft at
the convention in Burlington to elect
delegates to the national republican
convention. They did all in their
power to get the convention to en-
dCrse the candidacy of Mr.. Taft but
they found the Hughes sentiment so
strong they did not dare take up the
matter in open convention. This was
simply "a sample of the administrations
efforts for Taft and against Hughes
throughout the country. Pres. Roose-
welt secured the nomination of Taft
and the defeat of Hughes. Then he
was appointed justice of the Supreme
Court and went out of politics. So
the republicans have only Theodore
Roosevelt to thank today for their in
ability to name the man they want for
the presidency.
St. Johnsbury Caledonian. [volume] (St. Johnsbury, Vt.) 1867-1919, 1915-11-24

tude on the part OF The Caledonian
we wish to state there has been. ne
change. The Caledonian has argued
that the people at the referendum in
March 1914 emphaticaIly declared fol
a direct primary and it was the duty
of the party to give it to them. II
still believes that was the proper thing
to do. A law was passed but a refer
endum was attached as to the date il
should take effect. This changes the
question from the general one of car
rying out the peoples verdict to one
of a specific act. The question now
before the voters is. Do you prefer the
act passed by the legislature to present
law? And on this question it is prop
er and we believe necessary to weigh
the different provisions of the act and
judge them upon their own merits re-
CARELESS of whether you are for or
against a primary on general princi-
pies.
Now let us look at the Banners
plan of scattering petitions around in
different towns in the hope of secur-
ing the required number of subscrip-
tions. Section 6, paragraph (a) of
the act provides a specific form in
which attaching a PERSONS name to a
petition shall be done. This form con-
tains a statement, land I certify that
I am qualified to vote for such candi-
date for such Office, that I am a mem
Der of the party, and am not at this
time a signer of any other similar pc
tition for any other candidate for the
above office, etc." it gives the resi-
dence and occupation of the signer
and contains an oath to be signed by
a town clerk. notary public or justice |
of the peace, that the signer named is
known to him and has ap-
peared before him and made oath to
the correctness of his subscription to
the petition. The scattering of petit
tons about in public places for Tom.
Dick and Harry to sign or not as they
wish will not comply with this part of
the law
In order to comply with the law the
u d MAINE On q regular
mary ballot is not a popular matter.
1t requires a somewhat extended and
careful canvass by some party. We
believe only interested parties will be
willing to give the amount of time and
work necessary and so there would be
no escape from that, as has been as
serted. We are open to conviction on
this matter but at present do not see
the opportunity for popular partici-
patton in the selection of candidates
Under the proposed law. We also be-
ieve it wise to measure the law on its
own merits rather than the merits of a
principle. If the proposed law gives
he privileges the people demand, it 4
s right to vote for it. If it does not,
t should be rejected.

Graft May Defeat Defence.

1t is already being limited at Wash
ington that a proper system of de-
fence may fail because so many con-
gressmen will have pet forts and army
posts they wish to save. Our military
work has been so much of the pork
forts or posts located where they are
of no use as national defences. These
posts bring some income to the bust
ness men of the different sections and
of course they would like to have
them continued and a congressman
working for their salvation would be
supported by his constituents So,
while the iniquity of such working
and voting is apparent to ALL the con-
gresham who loots the treasury and
exposes the nation as a whole to at
tack will really be playing the strong
est kind of politics. 1t is deplor-
able condition but a very real one.
A canvass of the members of con-
gress by the Chicago Herald on the
preparedness program showed seven
ty-two senators in favor of an increase
Of the army and navy, two opposed to
any increase and twenty-five non-com-
initial. In the house 213 members
favor an increase. seventeen are
against any increase and COS are non
committal. This shows the possible
defeat of any program in the house.
There is one branch of national de-
fence that seems even more necessary
that need not be sacrificed in this way.
That is the development of strong
navy. Defence really lies in the navy
because this country will never be in
danger of serious invasion except by
water. The only countries there is
reason to fear are separated from US
by an ocean and if the United States
has a naval force strong enough to
prevent them from crossing the ocean

The Direct Primary Again.

The Bennington Banner makes the
following comment on The Caledon-
ian's statement that the getting of
signatures to petitions for various can
dldates for a primary election under
the law submitted to the voters by
referendum next March would likely
be done by interested parties.
Seriously is there a man in Vermont
of gubernatorial size or even consider
ed a gubernatorial possibility who
hasn't friends in various parts of the
state to the number of more than 500
ready and willing to sign the required
primary petition? No one man goes
out and gets 500 names or 100 names
or any other given number. In pri-
mary states it is customary to place
the petitions in public places in as
many different towns as possible. If
the result of this exposure isn't al
least 500 names the aspiring would-be
candidate had best retire as grace
fully as possible to the backwoods.
The primary will not make sheep out
of goats. 1t does not change the
character of men. 1t merely gives the
rank and file of the voters of a party
a chance to decide for themselves. If
they do not approve the man who
seems likely to be nominated it takes
only a little effort to put another man
in the field and then the voters can
choose between the two. The question
before the voters is whether they will
elect to make their own nominations
or whether they prefer to have local
politicians from the several towns go
up to Montpelier and Burlington and
make the nominations. BY the way
The Caledonian appears to have chang
ed it's attitude on the question of the
direct primary. We do not question
its right to change but should like to
hear the arguments that altered its
conviction7
As to the charge of change in atti-

There is every evidence that the
Austrian and German Representatives
in the United States are in active con-
spiracy to damage and destroy Ameri-
can property engaged in the manu-
facture of war munitions They have
expended large sums with secret
agents to accomplish this destruction.
The government at Washington is try
ing to find law to deal with them.
We would suggest that passports and
twenty-four hours in which to leave
this country would be proper treat
ment of the diplomatic representa-
tives from those two countries, de-
lection and conviction of those who
have actually been engaged in the ex-
plosions and fires at the various plants
and the shooting as spies of every man
convicted. That might set the fiends
across the water to thinking and would
protect Americans in their rights.
But it is probable the administration

has allowed Americans to be killed by
the outlaw governments in Mexico.

The conviction of J. P. Rabidou OF
Mortified of manslaughter for run
ming over and killing a man with his
automobile will generally be approved.
There is considerable evidence that
Mr.. Rabidou was indulging in a joy
ride with women not members of his
family and the whole situation points
to lawlessness and carelessness on his
part. Such men should not be allow
ed to operate an automobile and en-
danger the life and property of others.
There are many other cases in Yer
mont, some of them very near home,
where men should be restrained from
using an automobile while making an
and licentious expedition.
