ARTHUR W. HEWITT.
Springfield Reporter,


Rev. Arthur w. Hewitt, pastor of
the Methodist church at Plainfeld, and
member of the State Educational COM
mission, is a remarkable young man.
When graduating from Montpelier
seminary few years ago. he gave an
original Greek poem in lieu of the ordi-
nary Grafton. Entering at once upon
his ministerial career he was sta
toned at Glover for a short time, and
made good to such an extent that he
was appointed to Plainfeld eight years
ago. This charge was relatively small
and not considered especially desirable,
but Mr.. Hewitt has more than doubled
the congregations, and the financial
receipts, started an out appointment
at Adament and built church edifice
there, and lifted his society to prom
inence all through Washington county,
Elected to the legislature as Demo-
crat from a Republican town for two
successive sessions he soon rose to
prominence in that body, and was
made the chairman of the educational
committee the second session during
which he made speeches that made
| him famous with all who heard him,
and won the highest encomiums from
President Thomas of Middlebury col
lege.
Now he comes into the lime light
again as peace maker as well as a
pace maker, the Argus telling the
story of how he accompanied the newly
appointed Commissioner of Education
Hilegas to Johnson, and there poured
oil on the troubled waters, stilled an
incipient tempest, and incidentally won
for himsel an invitation to give the
commencement address at Johnson
normal school, this date not conflicting
with the commencement at the Castleton
normal school at which place he is also
the commement speaker

HUGHES AND PRECEDENT.

The Register has no correspondent
whose communications are more well
come than those of Mr., Lyman W..
Peet of Cornwall, and there are few
men in this county whose opinions de-
serve greater respect. But we do not
agree with the views of his letter " For
Hughes, but not for President "
The nation has right to the best
man in the land for President, no mat
ter what position he may occupy. AT
any time the greatest man is needed,
but in this world crisis there is impera
tive demand for man of the largest
calibre, tried and trusted in the most
responsible stations, one who has DEM
onstrated his powers as a great popular
leader, man of poise and dignity and
inAexibe steadiness, one who will com
mand the unfailing confidence of the
country and inspire immediate respect
in every capital of the world, man
who knows what national honor means
and will see that it is maintained. 1t is
time to put the first American in the
first place.
Roosevelt has the needed conception
of our nations duty, and he is entitled
to profound gratitude for his clarion
calls to self-respect and worthy for
eign policy. There is no doubt wide
spread movement back to him, which
includes many who thought they coulc
never support him again. But there
are many quiet thousands who 10 moi
forget old scores and many more who
do not believe he is safe man for sucf
a crisis. To take Roosevelt as the
standard bearer to help US regain oul
American ideals, and then to lose
would be an unspeakable calamity.
The great statesman who drew the
terrible indictment of the Wilson admin
istration at the New York convention
would set us right before the world
But Root was the master of ceremonie
at the Bull Moose Tsplit, and there arr
many who would not forget.
Borah voted for Bryan. Burton onc'
lost his own State. Mccall and Week
are unknown in the west. Cummins IL
the east. None of the group of Stat
or sectional candidates measures up t.
the situation.
The circumstances are serious enoug
to brush aside the technical objection
so well stated by Mr.. Peet. Those OBJ
iections all rest upon precedent. Blu
there is no precedent for this natiol
pillowed in shame and weakness befor
the world as too proud to fight. w

EASTER.

The message of Easter is not OF the
life to come only, 1t is the symbol OF
humanity great unto Immortality 1t
speaks of larger, nobler deeper life
here in this present world. 1t testiiies
to the victory of the soul of every man
over his enemy. Easter faith looks to
a contamination in the future, but 1t has
consequences here and now, in the
worthier life to which it leads and which
the world must discover in one by TIE
cleanness of his speech, the sweetness
of his spirit, the energy Of his grit, and
the honor of his deeds. AS Lucy
Larcom sang,
This is the beauty of our Easter morn
ing;
In Him humanity may now arise
Out of the grave of self, all basenes'
scorning,
The holy radiance of His glorious eyes
Ilumines everywhere uplitted faces,
Touches the earthly with heavenly
glow,
And in that blessed light all human
graces
Into divine beatitudes must grow.

must have red-blOoded American
whom we can be sure to elect, and that
means Hughes. 1t may not be too
much to expect that Roosevelt may
sense the deep-seated antagonisms
which still exist back of all the applause
his strong utterances call forth, and
with that high patriotism which the mass
of the people have always imputed to
him, himself say the word which will
force Mr., Hughes to depart from ira

nation needs him.

If an outsider can judge, the Rutland
Railroad is doing more business than
for several years, Long heavy freight
trains are passing through Middlebury
with much greater frequency than
usual. The new service announced by
the Central Vermont, through sleeper
daily from Burlington to Chicago, may
be another sign of returning railroad
prosperity in Vermont.
