that gathering has escaped their notice. And that

came apparent that Davis was real posslolils

arc in politics for what they can get out Of it for
themselves came to mutually satisfactory uaoer-
standing. The convention was Embossed up 10
certain point but when that point was feacneu INC
management Of affairs was taken out OF the aanos
of the delegates and the most available man satis-
factory TO the gang which controlled was put across

All the elements seem to have been working on q

fair show. As 1t is the most unsayory group tnat

democratic candidate will find out that he, t0O' VIII

Governor CLEMENT explains bis DECISION
" not to call the Vermont legislature N spaaal
session b take action on the suffrage amendment 70 the
f.Jeral constitution on The ground that the member,
were cected before ratification became an issue and
he people therefore have had no opportunity to mol
cate approval Or disapproval Of suffrage.
That would pass as far sample Of Yankee con-
.ysism to which no one would have night to take
.,eentop # i were not for the fact that Governor
Cement practically announced right after his visit to
Washington, where be saw Senator Harding. that he
Intended to issue the call which he now refuses to
make. He may be saving his own political hide BY
his Change Of front but he IS creating an embarrassing
situation fo,, Ii. Republican candidate for the p'sa,
d.ncy and for The Republican organization and on
that score he i, open 10 criticism
Logo IS logic, Of course, but in politics reactions
v,v, and what may seem to be the proper thing IN
Vermont or Connecticut might create far from taV-
orable impression in California or Washington, where
he women are bit insisent upon this matter Of sui
fage. Il would have been much better. therefore,
for Governor Clement either to have kepths own e0un-
ii sbout rs mentions on the suffrage matter or gone
6roush with it no matter how much pressure the anus
put upOu him after permitting the public to find out
hat he was thinking Of it
Governor Clement has not cut a very Impressive
spurc IN hi, matter. Even h: obstinate Holoonb'
who IS permitting his own prejudice against equal SUI
hase to hold up ratification the state of Connecticut
make better showing.
