Vermont Another Switzerland

G, L. Mcmahon met at the recent Hotel
Keepers convention at Maplewood, N.
j., j. w. Barber of Mt Ida, Newton,
Mass, who is an enthusiast upon the de
velopment of New England and who
promised Mr.. Mcmahon that he would
come to Stowe early in the winter to give
assistance in arranging for winter sports
here. Mr.. Barber calls Vermont another
Switzerland and thinks that visitors may
be drawn here in winter as we'll as in
summer if sufficient effort is put forth to
develop natural winter attractions. Mr..
Mcmahon called on Editor W. j. Bigelow
and James B. Campbell, both formerly of
Stowe, in ST. Johnsbury and also Judge
Harland B. Howe on the way to the
mountains. The return trip was made by
Wells River, Bradford and Montpelier.
The roads in Vermont were fine, equally
as good as those in New Hampshire.

SKIF7Y WILSON ON
COLONEL'S BODK|N
Elusive BaIancer on String Of
Words Pinned Down by Proof
That In Fifteen Public Ut
terances He Took Forty
One Different Positions
on Preparedness.
EACH STAND CONTRADICTED
FROM | TO6OF THE OTHERS

Democratic Candidate Said That oul
Army Was Ample and That We Die
Not Have Enough Troops to Patro
the Border; That We Were on the
Verge of a MaeIstrom and Tha,
There Was No Critical Situation;
That the National Guard Would No,
Do and Then That It Must Do.
In the fourteen months extending
from December 9Th, 1914, to February
10th, 1915. there were fifteen mes
sages, letters and speeches Of Presi-
dent Wilson which l have read. In
these fifteen messages, letters and
speeches, during those fourteen
months, President Wilson took forty
one different positions about prepared.
ness and the measures necessary to
secure 1t; and each of these forty-one
positions contradicted from one to six
OF the others. In many Of his speeches
the weasel words Of one portion Of
the speech took all the meaning out
Of the words used in another portion
OF that speech; and these latter words
themselves had weasel significance
as regards yet other words. He ar
gued for preparedness and against
preparedness. He stated that our
army was ample; and that we did
not have enough troops to patrol the
Mexican border in time Of peace. He
said the world was on fire, and that
sparks were liable to drop anywhere
and cause us to burst into fame; and
he also said that there was no imme-
diate danger. He said that there was
no sudden crisis; and then again that
he did not know what a single day
would bring forth. He said that we
were on the verge Of a maelstrom;
and then that there was no special
or critical situation. He said the dan
ger was constant and Immediate; and
also that we were not threatened from
any quarter. He said that there was
no fear among us; and also that we
were In daily danger of seeing the
vital interest and honor Of the country
menaced and the flag Of the United
States stained with impunity. He
said that we were in very critical
danger Of being involved In the great
European struggle; and also that
there was no need to discuss the
question Of defense, or to get nervous
or excited about 1t. In one and the
same speech, he said that sufficient
Of men would volunteer. and
that If they did not he would be
ashamed Of America; and he also said
that he did not know of any law
which laid upon them the duty Of COM
Ing into the army, If 1t should be
necessary to call for volunteers. He
said that we needed 100000 volunteers.
and that If there was any legitimate
of this demand it was be.
cause 1t was too small; and as soon
as Congressman Hay objected to the
plan, he promptly abandoned it. He
said that the National Guard was not |
the proper body upon which to rely;
and then not only changed his own
mind but forced his own Secretary
IF War out of his cabinet, because this
secretary possessed less flexible con-
Victions and was unable instantly to
reverse himself when going at full
