With the resignation of Tax Com
missioner Plumley and Industrial
Commissioner Simonds the state los
es two of its most popular officials.
The probable reason for their resig-
nation is the fact that Governor
Clement did not reappoint them when
he reappointed other officials during
the last legislature and named diff
ferent men in their places. The offer
of splendid positions to these men
along similar lines outside the state,
and the going of one if not both from
Vermont, is to be regretted, and only
adds strength to the general belief
that both men are able and efficient
No doubt Governor Clement will find
good men to take these positions, but
his action appears to be driving some
good men out of Office and out of the
state.

for most of our great admirals OF this
generation were born in the shadow
of the Green Mountains. The unlver-
sity on the hill was honoring Bur-
lington man. From Battery Park you
can look across the inland sea TO
Plattsburg bay where Commodore
Thomas Marlborough whipped a Brit
ish squadron in 1914, and the biog-
rapher of Henry T. Mayo will account
for his naval career by deriving his
inspiration from that stout conflict
in which 300 British and 200 Ameri-
cans persisted, fighting at close quar-
tiers in the old, romantic and san
culinary style.
Admiral George Dewey of deathless
Manila bay fame, was born at Mont
pelier, under the State House hill, on
whose crest the cows chew the cud as
they look in on the legislators at their
desks. Admiral Dewey wrote his own
life, and in chapter /, he says that
during his 'long stay in the heat of
Manila bay after the, battle, certain
angles of view of the irregular land
seape of Luzon from the deck of the
flagship Olympia, often recalled the
Green Mountains of my boyhood
days." and he adds: Indeed, / never
look across a stretch of rolling coun-
try without a feeling of homesickness
for Vermont" That is the way all
absent Vermonters feel, and they
like to say so. As Dewey's great
grandfather William fought at Lex

was one of Ethan Aliens Green

Indeed, he spent two years at the
Norwich military academy for the
sake of its discipline, which he need
ed (see, his wild pranks in the auto
biography. But there happened to be
no vacancy for West Point from Yer
mont when George Dewey was old
enough to be entered. Otherwise"
he says, 81 might have gone into
Manila bay on an army transport in
stead of on the Olympia"

Senator Foote that the Montpelier

ations of any kind and does not want to be presidential candidate.
 David Lawrence, who Is probably one of the most famous of the Washington cor respondents of today, says that there is a wcll-defined independent movement thru out the United States which is growing stronger each day for MT. Hoover's nosin- ation. He says that the demand of the hour seems to be for a progressive man for President, and one that will be independent of professional politicians. The republican contention that the democratic party is not as efficient as the republican party, he says, has been largely disproven to most business men by the record of the present republican congress, which he says. has demonstrated that 1t has no definite leader ship but is simply an alliance of factions in opposition to President Wilson and one that has nothing in common as far as poll cieS for government or legislation is con cemed. AS seen by MT. Lawrence, while Mr. Hoover would get the democratic hom- Ination. or endorsement, if he should be ad- vanccd as an independent candidate, on his record as a consistent Wilson supporter, he would likewise get strong support from the rank and file of the republican party among which the sentiment for his candi- dacy seems apparently as strong as among the opposition party.
