The Rutland News thinks the world
would be curious place if "conserva-
tives" like Governor Clement always
had their way and calls attention to a
letter dated 1925, evidently written by
a conservative of that time. An ex-
cerpt from it reads:
You are welcome to use the school
house to debate all proper questions in,
but such things as railroads are impos-
sibilities and rank infdelity. There
is nothing in the word of God about
them. If God designed that His intel
ligent creatures should travel at a
frightful speed of Is miles and hour by
steam, He would have clearly foretold
through His holy prophets. 1t is a
device to lead immortal souls down to
hell.

is a cent and a half less in Brattleboro

that Brattleboro middlemen charge less
for distributing goods produced out

distributors are helping Vermont pro
ducers to better market at home than
elsewhere.

The direct primary has had distinct
influence in Vermont in placing county
Offices in the large towns and preventing
the small towns from getting a fair
shore Taking the last Vermont senate,
Is of the members, or e-half the mem
bership, came from the big towns of the
counties. Bennington furnished both
senators for Bennington county, Burling
ton two of the four in Chittenden county.
Rutland two of the four in Rutland
county, Brattleboro both those in Wind
ham county. These were disproportion
ate representations. 1t results from sew
eral candidates coming in from the large
towns and running away with the prizes
through the plurality provision. The
little fellows from outside cut little ice
when the vote is figured up this way.

TEXT OF PRESIDENT WILSON'S
PLEA TO SPARE The TREATY

| it. it would mark Il. rs desiring to return
| to the old world Of Jealous rivalry and mis-
undcrst andIngs from which our gallant
soldiers have rescued us and would leave
us without any vision or new conception
of Justice and peace We would have learn-
ed no lesson from the war, but gained only
the regret. that 1t had involved us in its
maelstrom of suffering. If America has
awakened, rs the rest of the world has, to
the vision Of n new day in which the mis-
takes Of the past are to be corrected, it
wall welcome the opportunity TO share the
responsibilities Of Article n.
II must not be forgotten Senator, that
the article constitutes remuneration Of
all ambition on the part Of powerful ma
tions with whom we were associated in the
war. II is by no means certain that with
out this article any such remuneration
will take place. Militaristic ambitions and
imperialistic policies arc by no means
dead, even in counsels of the nations
whom we most trust and with whom We
most desire to be associated in the tasks
of peace.
Throughout the sessions of the con-
ference in Paris it was evident tha. a
mlitarlstic party, under the most in
fluentlal leadership. was seeking TO gain
ascendancy in the counsels OF France.
TheyNwere defeated then, but arc in con-
troll now. The chief arguments advanced
IN Paris in support of the Italian claims on
the Adriatic were strategic arguments !,
that Is to say, military arguments, which
had at their back the thought Of naval
supremacy in that sea. FJr my own part
/ am as intoleranY of lmperialistic de-
signs on the part fof -ather nations as
l was of such designs sfl the part of Ger
many,
The choice is between two Ideals: on
the one hand the ideal of democracy,
which represents the rights of free peoples
everywhere TO govern themselves. and
on the other hanH the ideal of Imperialism
which seeks to dominate by force and un-
Just power, an ifeal which is by no means
dead and which is earnestly held in may
quarters still.
Every imperialistic influence in Eu-
rope was hostile To the embodiment of
Article y in the convenant of the League
of Nations, and its defeat now would mark
the complete consummation Of their
efforts to nullify the treaty | hold the
doctrine of Article Y as the essence oI
AHerlcanism. We cannot repudiate it or

pudlating cur own principles
