notice then called upon Mrs. Henry Il.
Brown, who said that she always had
a strong feeling that women have not
been interested to have suffrage granted
to them because they wanted to usurp
none of the privileges of the men, but
that the time had come when the women
realized that their interests were not
limited to the four walls of their homes.
They are interested in everything that
pertains to the home and the community
in which they live and they mean to
make the community q better place to
live in. 1T is in that spirit that we
come" she declared.
Governor Bartlett. the next speaker,
remarked upon the friendly relations be-
tween New Hampshire and Vermont,
saving that they had struggled together
all these ,-"-,.7 and had lived so quietly
that they practically had forgotten
where the boundary line is. a remark
which caused considerable laughter in
the light of recent legal proceedings to
have the line established. He said the
Republican party had kept abreast of
the best things that stand for the high
| est ideals of America. Party organiza-
| tons. declared the governor, must be
maintained He asserted that it was
unethical to go into a Republican pri-
mary and not abide by the result of that
| primary. If we are to develop good
|
good, strong parties, and to do this we
must abide by the result of the party
| primary. The minority must, in a srrc-
cessful democracy. learn to abide by the
decree of the majority and that applies
as much to party primaries as it does
to national elections.
| In behalf of the Republican state COM
mittee Col. Paddock then asked that
| those present go back home with re-
newed zeal as Republicans and deter
mine to get ont as large a Republican
vote as possible.
The rally was opened by Harold f.
p, Whitney. chairman of the Republican
town committee. who turned the meet
ing over to Col. PiddOck The first
speaker. Mr.. Hardness. made brief ref
erencpS to his platform. especially to
the plank regarding industrial develop
ment of the state and declared that there
were great opportunities for developing
Vermont in keeping with the progress OF
the sister states in New England. Yer
mont can grow in some of those things
which are very desirable so that the mi
grafton of men and money out of the
state will cease. so that the money will
be retained in Vermont: investments OF
the people will be made in Vermont. The
plan is broad and economical and Yer
