The Brattleboro daily reformer. (Brattleboro, Vt.) 1913-1955, 1920-10-22
The MeddLeT
"N tlr eoat fits you, put it on

While there may be some surprise
that this years Valley fair attendance
was slightly less thar that of 1919 the
difference is explained by the variance
in weather conditions on the opening
days. Last years weather, it will be
remembered, was wei! nigh perfect on
both days while this years fair opened
under a combination of wind, rain and
cold that must have kept many persons
at home. However, with its increased
admission the fair association ought to
be reasonably sure of meeting increased
operating costs and still have something
left over for a rainy day.
Judging by the attendance at the rail-
lies held here within the past week most
local people are content to absorb their
political information from the newspa-
pers or go without. Neither the Repub-
Hcan gathering Monday evening nor the
Democratic assemblage Wednesday eve
ming drew anything like representative
crowds They were just fairly attended
and most of those present evidently were
there to have their convictions confirmed
rather than to be influenced one way or
the other. Senator Dillingham; was the
outstanding figure at the Republican
rally. Erect in bearing and forceful in
expression. one has difficulty in believ-
ing him 76 years of age and difficulty in
understanding why a man of his ability
has not made himself a more command
ing figure in Washington. The Demo
cratic rally uncovered Il more than or
dinarily promising young orator in the
person of James f. Leamy of Rutland.
Were he on the other side of the fence
he might be expected to go a considerable
distance in Vermont politics.

Angus Mclean Tells Of
Sentiment For Him
In North Carolina

WASHINGTON, May 28.-The
senate pre-conventions expenditures
investigating committee today made
further efforts to get some light on
what Chairman Kenyon termed "this
invisible McAdoo BOOM"
Angus Mclean, of North Caro-
lima. who is supporting McAdoo for
the presidential nomination, denied
that he is a sort of southern mana
ger" for McAdoo's campaign. Re
counting a conversation with Nc
Adoo, the date of which he could not
fix definitely, Mclean said he told
McAdoo at that time there was
an overwhelming sentiment for him
in his state and that his name should
90 into the primary there.
Continuing his testimony, Mclean
declared McAdoo said during the
conversation referred to that he was
not a candidate for the presidential
nomination, that he would not turn
his hand to secure the nomination,
and that he did not want his friends
to take an action about it.
Mclean told the committee further
that he knew nothing about any plans
to use the Liberty loan publicity cam
paign organization in behalf of the
McAdoo candidacy.
