The County Picnic.

Some 800 people attended the coun-
ty picnic and annual meeting Of the
Orleans County Historical society
held at the Old Stone House in
Bloomington Friday.
The day was ideal and the coffee
made in a caldron kettle into which
everyone threw their coffee bags, and
from which each dipped his coffee
could not have been better. The ex-
ercises were not long or elaborate. F.
W. Baldwin of Barton, president of
the society, gave biographical
sketch of Alexander Twilight, the in
domitable parsonage who carried
through the building project and was
principal of the Bloomington acad-
emy years ago.
Old Stone House property had been
purchased and paid for by the society
within the past year, that essential
repairs were being made upon the
building and that it would soon be in
shape for occupancy and the reposi-
tory of things historical from the
county.
Officers of the year preceding were
reelected as follows: F. w. Baldwin,
president; o. C. Miller of Newport,
vice president; G. J. Gross of Orleans,
treasurer; Wallace H. Gilpin of Bar
ton, secretary and c. S. Skinner of
Orleans auditor.
Mr.. Gross and James Young solic-
tied members and gifts among the
audience and secured II new members
and about $40 in money for carrying
on the work
Space forbids more extended re-
pOOt in this issue.

Hamblet States Position.

To the People of Orleans County:
As a candidate for county senator
/ have freely and frankly stated my
position on the important referendum
question to individual inquirers in
person, by letter and by telephone but
/ am glad to make public statement
through the press as suggested in a
letter appearing in your paper last
week.
am uneQuivocally for the prohib;-
ton amendment to the United States
constitution and shall do my part to
see that Vermont is one Of the states
to ratify.
In these times when the war and
war activities demand so much time
and energy I believe the legislature
should confne it's activities strictly to
vital and essential measures and then
adjourn. A short session would save
expense to the state.
If your acquaintance, confidence
and votes make it possible for me to
represent you in the next Vermont
senate. assure you that your inter-
ests will be served to the best of my
ability.
Very truly yours,
G.. E. Hamblet.

REIRDEN SAYS:
To the People of the Town of Bar

To the People of the Town of Bar
A number of friends from different
parts Of the state approached me in
person and by letter during the past
winter and spring, urging me to be-
come candidate for speaker of the
next House of Representatives While
at first the subject did not impress
me as a matter for serious condition
| must admit that it was gratifying
to know that my name has been men,
toned in connection with that impor-
tant Office Later it has been made ap-
parent to me that this thing is more
than the friendly talk of few per-
sons.
Such an honor would be a very
have an opportunity to become a can
didate for that place must be elected
a member of the House. If elected [
realize that a precedent that has be-
come more or less established would
be disturbed, and the north end of
the town temporarily deprived of
sending one of it's residents to the
Vermont house, but this would un-
doubtedly be righted in future cleo
tions or whenever especial honor
seemed probable to fall to any north
end man by reason of his election.
Nevertheless, have been urged by
friends both here and at Orleans to
make my personal desires in the mat
ter known, along with the possibility
of the further honor that might come
to me. Still l have hesitated. But
the time is at hand when decision
must be made and / have decided to
file my name as a candidate for Bar
ton town representative.
[ shall make no unseemly campaign
for the place, but if those who desire
to assist me to crafty q personal
ambition and who believe the town
would have certain honor reflected
upon it in the event of my being made
speaker, outnumber those who say /
should not ask to be Barton's repre-
sentative again and that the election
should go to another, then l shall in
deed be grateful. But should the
voters decide that l am asking too
much of them, then / shall abide by
the decision with all due respect to
their wisdom.
l stand squarely for ratification of
the national prohibition amendment,
for a short term of the legislature,
for vigorous win-the-war program
from start to finish. In the circum-
stances I much desire the support of
the voters of Barton.

GRAHAM ASKED TO RESIGN
Republican State Committee Present
Resolutions to that Effect.

J. R. Searles, c. S. Skinner and H..
F. Fairchild of the Republican state
committee, which held a session in
Burlington Friday, waited upon Gov.
Graham at his home in Craftsbury
Saturday and laid before him the res
olution favoring his resignation be-
cause of the alleged shortages in his
accounts as state auditor. Gov. Gra-
ham made no comment upon the pres
entation and during the evening he
stated to the press that he would
have nothing to say in the matter
then.
Judge Barber in making the inves-
tigation has been given the authority
to hire his experts wherever he wants
them, outside or inside the state.
The statement by Frank G. Will
liams that he did not get an invita-
tion either directly or indirectly to
the conference makes some people
feel that neither did Governor Gra-
ham receive one and that the state
ment to that effect, at the conference
was erroneous. Mr.. Williams states
that if he had received an invitation
he would surely have attended.
