VERMONT NEWS NOTES.
Good Trout Catches in Bennington.

Because Of the backward spring the
anglers in Bennington and vicinity
have been predicting that there would
be but little good trout fishing before
the first of May, but these predictions,
like weather prophecies, failed to
materialize, for not in a number Of
years have the catches been so large
on the opening day. The most fire.
quented stream was Furnace brook.
Dozens of fishermen were seen on
its banks during the day and all of
them, even the small boys, reported
trout. Edwin d. Moore secured q
trout that weighed within few
ounces of the days limit
The stream has been annually
stocked for a number Of years by the
Bennington County Forest, Fish, and
Game association and the results
show that the work of the association
is beginning to turn back results.

sibly one contest for delegate to the
national convention at ST. Louis, but
have won everything else. They be-
lieye also that the one contest for
convention delegate will be victory
for them when the full returns come
in from Maui and Molokai.
For national committeeman, John
II. Wilson. McCandless ticket, has
wen over High Sheriff W. p. Jarrett
OF the sc-called Pinkham ticket ~
about 200 votes, they say. The latest
returns show 6S2 for Wilson to 512 for
Jarrett, but the McCandless faction
expects Halawa and Kalaupapa pre-.
eincts on Molokai. which are still
missing, to come through with 40 or
more votes for Wilson. This is de-
MED by the other side, which hopes
the result will be quite different
Jarrett won two precincts on Ha-
waii-the only ones which organized
there and voted, but ran far behind
on Oahu
Delegates Chosen.
The following delegates to the ma
tional convention are apparently
elected:
From Oahu--L L. McCandless, NJ.
C. Paeheco and Jesse Uluihi, all or
the McCandless ticket. They defeated
Marley Hopkins, G. J. Waller and ex
Mayor Joseph J. Fern of the Pinkhams
ticket s.
From Hawaii--0llie Shipman. He
had no opposition.
From Kauai. S, Chandler.
On Maui the contest is doubtful.
Last reports gave Dr. J. H. Raymond
of the Pinkham ticket los votes. one
higher than his opponent, Morris
Keohckalole. but the McCandless fac.
ton expects the missing precincts to
produce enough votes to elect their
man.
Alternates-On Oahu the candidates
for alternates. Ioela Kiakahi, Judge
T. B. Stuart and R. H Trent, were all
backed by the McCandless wing and
there was no opposition.
On Hawaii there was no candidate
for alternate.
On Maui Ben Lyons, Pinkham
ticket, was running against Eugene
Murphy, McCandless ticket, the result
being in doubt, as Is the main contest.
On Oahu IL territorial committee
men were to be elected, six from the
fourth and six from the fifth district.
The McCandless wing elected all of
its candidates with the exception of
T. ]. Ryan, running in the fifth dis
trict. He Is apparently beaten by R.
". Holt, and the one precinct still to
be heard from. Laie. is not expected
to change this result.
Ballots Not Allowed.
Several features of political inter-
est developed in the voting. The fifth
precinct of the fourth, Oahu, did not
comply with the party rules, the off.
Hcials said, and its vote was not even
counted. Governor PinkhaTl resides
in this precinct The Lahaina precinct
on Maui also did not comply, the Off
cials ruled, and the 55 votes there
were thrown out Raymond had So
out Of the So, wireless returns say, SO
the action here cost the Pinkham
ticket numerous votes. The Pinkham
men say that the McCandless wing
controls the party machinery. The
matter of throwing out the Laha1na
precinct may be considered by the
territorial committee tonight.
The McCandless faction is plainly
jubilant today Almost from the first
this wing declared that the main is
sue was Governor Pinkham and that
its votes for all offices would be cast
for men who oppose the governor
politically.
