POLITICAL ADVERTISING
SENATOR PAGES REFLECTION
Do the People Desire his Return
TO the Senate?

The Lyndonville Union-Journal sent
out letters to several thousand promi-
nent Vermonters asking their opinion
as to public sentiment on the United
States Senatorship question.
The first returns. being those re-
ceived up to the time the Union
Journal first went to press after the
sending out of these letters. showed
the following results at the end of the
first week:
For Senator Page ....... 3241
For eX.Gov. Fletcher ...... SO
At the end of the second week,
For Senator Page .... 1928
For eX-Gov. Fletcher $50. 12l
Some of the newspapers of the state,
in commenting upon the extraordinary
preponderance of Page preference,
have been inclined to question the fair.
ness of this test vote, the Montpelier
Argus going to the extent of intimating
that the letters were only sent to the
personal friends of Senator Page.
Here is its language:
zone paper asserts that the list of
names was made up of Page support
ers, and that Sc went over to the
enemy"
The Bennington Banner seemed to
believe that the preferences for eX.
Governor Fletcher represented the few
weeds which had found their way into
Senator Pages political garden. Here
Is its language:
THE Lyndonyille Journal has been
| taking straw vote of a selected list
of Page supporters and find that sc
| OF them have gone over to Fletcher.
| Fire and furies! Isn't there any way
to keep the weeds out of our garden?'
In view of these suggestions it
is perhaps best to quote what John Il.
Chase, the editor of the Union. Journ.
al, has to say with reference to the
class of persons to whom these letters
were sent. Here is what he says.
How the list of names sent out was
made up is stated below. Whether II
is or is not a fair list the readers may
! judge; we simply give the facts.
First II contained the names of
living members of the Legislatures
from 1910 up to the present time, be.
tween 700 and 500 In all.
ut contained the names of every
physician. lawyer, minister of the
gospel, and the greater part of the
leading business men, and town
officials, in each town, and county and
state officials from 1910 up to the pres
ent time.
speaking generally, the list was
] made up, to Il quite considerable

COLLAR BUTTON REVEALS LOOT
$23$ Worth Of Stolen Mileages Found
in Rutland Hotel Room.

Rutland, July 10.-The dropping of
collar button today lead to the dscov-
cry of Il stolen mileages belonging
to the Delaware & Hudson railroad
valued at $3.50 They were taken June
"a when the depot at Fair Haven was
entered.
Just before leaving the st. James no.
tel this morning a guest who occupied
room II dropped a collar button and it
rolled under bureau, the bottom of
which extended nearly to the floor.
When he stopped to secure the elusive
button he saw a pile of mileage books
under piece of furniture and ished
out the u. Although the room had
been occupied every night since June
"a, the thiefs booty had not been dis.
covered.
Finding so many tickets in such an
unusual place aroused the suspicious
of the guest and he turned them over
to the proprietor. The register shows

extent, from names found in Walton's
Vermont Register, from 1910 forward,
as well as from rosters OF Grand Army
Posts, Oranges and other fraternal or
CARNATIONS.
Let us analyze this matter a little
more closely. What class of persons
in Vermont is 1t that, to the extent of
more than so out of every 81, believe
that public sentiment is for the return
Of Senator Page? Let us see what
grounds for complaint, if any, the
friends Of Governor Fletcher properly
have against the class of individuals
to whom this test vote was referred.
Governor Fletcher was member Of
the Legislature either in the capacity
OF Representative, Senator, or Cover
nor, from October, 1902, to January,
1915. During all these years he was
forming close personal acquaintance
with the different members of these
Legislatures. and for the two years
of his incumbency of the gubernatorial
office filled 1S9 appointive positions.
On the other hand since 1908 Senator
Page has been in attendance upon his
duties at Washington. Only once dur
ing that whole period has he left the
Senate while Congress was in session,
to meet and make the acquaintance of
his constituents, not that he would not
have been very much pleased to do
So but rather because he felt that he
could not do so without neglect of
duty. His lack Of personal touch and
contact with his constituents has been
regarded by many as his chiefest fault
but be that as IL may everyone under.
stands that it is usually safe to assert
that when the Senate is in session
Senator Page can be found at the Ma.
tional Capitol.
In brief, while eX.Gov. Fletcher has
had every opportunity to meet and
come into close personal touch with
the people of Vermont, and under the
most favorable conditions, Senator
Page has been deprived of this great
privilege.
How then can II he truthfully said
that a list comprising all the livinl
members OF the Legislatures of Yer
mont from and including 1910 up to The
present time, between zoo and 500 IL
all, is unfair so far as Governor Flet
cher is concerned? If unfair to any
one was 1t not unfair to Senator Page
Did not Governor Fletcher have every
possible advantage over Senator Page
Finally, let us repeat as propel
sequence to this article the question
at its head, viz:
] Do the people desire Senator Page,
reelection to the Senate?
