The Presidential Primary.

The presidential primary in Vermont
to take place in May, looks at present
much like blank cartridge. Voters
are expected to express by ballot their
preference for the presidential candi-
date of their party. This is clear
enough. but is circumscribed by the
provision of the law that requires can
didates themselves to request in writ
ing that their names be placed on the
official ballot. AS the situation exists
this year, probably few names will APP
pear. Even Woodrow Wilson, who is
the only Democratic prospect will go
farther than he has anywhere else if
he formally requests that his name go
on. 1t is certain that neither Justice
Hughes nor Colonel Roosevelt will
take this STEP and unlikely that any
Republican candidate seriously consid-
cred will do so. Should this be the
case voters may still make their pre-
ference known by writing in the name
OF their choice on the ballot. How
ever, it seems to us that this require
ment of candidate, that he ask to go
on the ballot, is going too far. In most
states the petition is sufficient to get
them on, and they may, if the candi
dacy is unwelcome to them, refuse to
have their names put on the official
ballot. This is a more becoming
course than putting the initiative on
the candidate himself But such i'm
PROJECTIONS in the act are not vital and
can be remedied If they work out

BLOOD THE SEAT OF DISEASE

An eminent authority on nervous
diseases has announced that the blood
is the seat of all diseases. How i'm
portant therefore, that it be kept in
a pure, healthy condition. For this
purpose our local druggist, VIM L..
Gokay guarantees Vinol because it
is combination of the three most
successful tonics known, iron in its
most soluble form, the medicinal ex-
tractives Of fresh cod livers, without
oil, and the nourishing properties of
beef peptone. Can you imagine any

Horace f. Graham, Craftsbury. will
be the next governor of Vermont I'M
less all signs fail. He has been state
auditor for fourteen years and no 9th
er man knows the business affairs Of
Vermont so well as he. Sometimes
candidates for governor are brilliant,
sometimes popular sometimes honest,
sometimes Industrious, sometimes
able, and sometimes merely the best
that is available. Mr. Graham is not
q human wonder, paragon of virtue
or climax of genius, but he is a plain,
sound, hard-headed, honest and patri-

speciman of mankind. With Horace
Graham governor the state will be

expects to see him nominated and
